Chapter 1

*Hokage's office hidden leaf village*

HiruzenSarutobi was troubled; one of the things that he had promised the fourth hokage was to protect his son, the jinchūriki of the nine tailed fox, Naruto Uzumaki.

Looking over at the small fox that was curled up beside his desk he realized that in the course of three days he had failed that simple task and now the boy was now lost.

But how that happed was what confused him the most not the course of events leading up to it as that was evidence when he looked on any of the faces of the villagers.

*ninja barracks outside Naruto's room*

I really wish that they gave him a better place to live then this he thought

Sarutobi walked up to his door and knocked on it "Naruto are you in?" when he didn't get an answer he knocked again and waited for the reply.

"Old man hokage…" came a very quiet reply from the other side of the door that put the ninja on alert straight away he is always loud what is going on?

After picking the lock on the door he enters to find naruto lying on the ground with his head in his hands "what's wrong naruto?" he asked the boy when he noticed the state of the room.

There was blood all over the walls and there was three dead bodies on the floor by the 9 year old boy, Hiruzen noticed that all three were high ranking anbu members why were they here and who killed them?

"Hokage the fox…. It talks" this statement sent dread through the old ninja as he put his hand on the poor boys forehead when he felt something tugging on his mind "he wants to talk to you" on hearing this he gathered his courage, closed his eyes and channelled his chakra into the boy and his seal.

*Kyūbi prison (Naruto's inner world)*

When he opened his eyes he found himself looking at the gates -that held the nine tailed fox- standing wide open but the fox was still inside looking at the manifestation of naruto lying on the ground.

"What happened to him?" the old man asked looking up at the fox but when he did the look that he got from the fox was not the look that he saw it its eyes 9 years ago when the fox attacked the village

"He was attacked by the three ninja you saw and he lost control of himself so I intervened but when I did I saw his memories of how your retched village treated him for just having me sealed inside him and not just the adults that the children as well!" the fox ranted as he was revealing all the pain he had caused his jailer to the old ninja who was shocked by the fact that a lot of the people that he cared for had such hatred for the boy

"But what am I to do? I can't punish people expressing their opinions" Sarutobi lamented not meaning to tell that to the fox

"There isn't anything that you can do but there is something that I can do"

"What is that? If you are going to leave what does that prove if you just destroy the village again?" he asked

"No you old coot" the fox chuckled "I'm not going to leave his body I am going to improve it, hopefully it won't affect him too much" the fox finished as he put his head close to the boy

This action made the hokage finally act as he put himself between the fox and the boy "I won't let you kill him" he stated

"I won't kill him, I am helping him the only way I can"

On hearing this, the ninja stepped aside and saw that the fox had shrunk down so that his eye was level with his "know this though he will not listen to anyone who harbours ill intent and there is only one person who will be able to control him" the fox informed him

"Who though?" he asked wondering if the person would be powerful ninja or a simply a farmer

"He will decide, goodbye Sarutobi hokage" as he said that the fox dipped his head to the boy and merged with him

*Naruto's room ninja barracks*

With a piercing scream Hiruzen was ejected from the mental prison to see large waves of chakra rolling of the poor boy to which he ran outside to find the fire alarm was going off.

"Hokage what are you doing here!" yelled one of the ninja assigned to deal with this type of problem "that doesn't matter just get everyone out of the building and set a 20 meter perimeter!" the hokage yelled at the man

Looking back in the room he saw the boy writhing in pain just try and survive naruto for my sake and your own.
