Naruto, puppeteer and unwilling shinobi

This is a rewrite of Caexah's story, 'Narutos new path through life, with puppets'. Naruto is alone as a child, living a bleak life, until Sarutobi buys him a few puppets, unknowingly setting the whiskered blond on a new path through life. A path, that if the blond had any say, would not include being a ninja.
