Naruto Uzumaki. Everyone knows him.

A normal boy. He is the one who was orphaned since birth, the one with the dangerous and destructive Nine-tailed Beast, sealed inside of him, the one who never gives up, the one who doesn't care about what others think of him, the one, who lives through life with big foxy smiles.

Well, that's how everyone sees him anyway, just cross the normal part out. Everyone knows he is not normal.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but you're wrong!
Let's start again, shall we?

Naruto Uzumaki.The pariah of his Village, their scapegoat to release their anger on. The one who was orphaned since birth but was kicked out by the tender age of 3, the one with the dangerous and destructive Nine-tailed Beast, sealed inside of him, who in reality is a big softie and very overprotective, the one who gave up long time ago, the one who breaks a little every time someone insults or hurts him, the one, who lives through life with lies and big fake smiles.


Do they really know him?

Naruto has been acting his whole life. Heck, his whole life is an act! Smiling through every hit and insult, as if that's possible. Everyone can and will break at some point in life, some just take longer than the others.

He fools everyone with his mask he has been building since his 5th Birthday, his teacher, his teammates, his friends, everyone around him believes in his stupid act of a loud, brash, stupid and stubborn orphan. And his Sensei talks about the "look underneath the underneath" shit. If he can't do it, his mask must be foolproof, right? Well, you are wrong again.

It is October 7th and in 3 days is Naruto's Birthday, he, of course, is totally stressed and paranoid around this time and often accidentally lets his mask slip, but he is in luck this year, the villagers won't be playing the fox hunt this year with him since the Godaime Hokage wants to send them on a trip that will take about two weeks. What will his Friends and Teachers say when they find out? Will they even find out? That's for you to decide, of course!
