| abstract | - Hayato was born in Iwagakure. His dad's cousin was Deidara; Hayato's father passed down his Explosion Release down to Hayato. Like his mother, Hayato's hair and eyes are brown in color. Hayato, however, had a lighter tint of brown on his hair, because his father was blond. At the age of three, Hayato's parents got involved in a small village attack, which not only took place in the village, but down the forest as well. Having escaped into the forest with an oblivious Hayato in hand, the attackers eventually got to her and ended her life right in front of the Konoha gates. Since then, Hayato never got to know his parents to a rather full extent; this is the only memory of his mother. His father was never there, considering that he was a full-time shinobi. Hayato never got to know his parents, however, this didn't stop him from succeeding as a ninja. Due to this, Naruto looked up to him in some sort - something which Hayato seems to dislike (due to the fact that he catches Naruto staring at him from time to time). Having been supported by the leaf village, he was sent to the Academy for ninja studies. At first, Hayato disliked the idea of being a ninja, especially since it involved a lot of riskiness and missions containing fear. Not having a choice, however, he stayed in the Academy, ignoring the offensive names other students threw at him (sissy, wuss, garbage). Hayato viewed this as the point in life which everyone once has/had to go through; a period in which every child goes through bullying. Because of this type of mindset, he wasn't offended at all. Eventually, he became one of the few rejects in the class; his only friend being Hinata Hyūga, whom she told her deepest darkest secret to - her love for Naruto. Ever since then, Hayato began to spy on Naruto. Surprisingly, he was never caught. With this said, Hayato knew a handful about Naruto, including the fact that he had a very big crush on Sakura. After telling Hinata this, she broke down into tears, but decided to keep her hopes up for him. Eventually, after a year of being in the Academy, he fell in love with the Ninjutsu classes. In turn, he studied hard and developed his own basic (at the time) Ninja Art, which was based off his favorite book, "The Adventures of Love"; he brought his made-up character to life with his made-up techniques. Due to this, he was often referred to as a "larper" or "a kitty". His techniques involved cat-like transformations, explosive combat, and close-ranged fighting gear. It wasn't until he beat Sasuke Uchiha in a small ninjutsu skirmish that people began to view his techniques as rather potent (atleast in the academy). This seemed to impress the proctors, especially because of his young age. Eventually, he gained the respect of Shikamaru Nara, who seemed to like his creativity. Aside from this, Hayato discovered the fact that he had a Kekkei Genkai, which was Explosion Release. Having discovered this during his academy days, he began to utalize it with his jutsu.
