Hello Readers;

It's me LivingLie here, bringing you an installment of something new. Yes this is my second story and it too is based on a WWE character, no I will not Abandon "The Masked Beast", and yes there will be some familiar characters (wink, wink). With that out of the way, let me describe the to story to you. Naruto is a neglected and abused. So after years of endurance he decides to runaway and live on his own. Now where will he go? How will his adventure pan out? Lets find out! So without further ado...

Chapter 1: Namikaze, Namikaze, Wherefore Art Thou Namikaze

A dreary night complemented the downcast feeling of the blonde boy walking down a deserted street. A boy who still has fellow blood carriers still skulking about, is alone in this world. Camouflage shorts and a white shirt with a red spiral on the back was the only thing that the blonde boy could salvage from the savage flame (not that it took much else from him to begin anyway). A flame that should've never even spawned but did only because the boys naivety strayed him down a path of near destruction.

You might inquire why his guardians didn't prevent this situation from happening, well that would be because they were absent. Albeit not on their own volition, but nonetheless they dropped the proverbial ball by not keeping some sort of eye on their child. Why didn't they you ask, well when you run one of the great five village's economy and military simultaneously it gets fairly difficult to get a grasp on your own personal life. Also, being the number one used Kunoichi in the aforementioned military consumes a large amount of time.

It would be misleading however for this to dictate a conclusion about the fire. For there is another party who is to blame in this situation and her name is Anci Uzumaki-Namikaze. Naruto Uzumaki-Namikaze's younger sister by three years. On the day of her birth her older brother was excited beyond all measurable account, for he loved the idea of having a sibling. His elation however would soon turn into despair for his sister wasn't benevolent in any sense of the word. The day of her birth a masked man entered the birthing room, and a long story short unleashed the fox demon that lay in the mother of Anci and Naruto, Kushina Uzumaki-Namikaze, out into the world.

The Kyuubi no Kitsune, as it was called, devastated the areas in which in touched. In an attempt to stop the raging beast the Hokage of the village, Minato Namikaze called upon his sealing expertise to eradicate the monster. The sealing method includes using a human as a cage for the demon making them what is known as a Jinchuuriki. Due to the recent birth Anci was chosen to be the prison much to the chagrin of the mother Kushina. Minato took his daughter and flashed out of the room using his special method Hiraishin no Jutsu (flying thunder god technique) while leaving his son to care for his unconscious mother.

Atop his summon toad Minato prepared to give his life for his village. This plan was stopped however when the seal masters' sensei entered the fray and before another word could be said; Jiraiya took over the procedure himself at the last possible second. He successfully locked away the Kyuubi no Kitsune and awaiting the Shinigami to take his soul as reparation for sealing away the demon, the legendary sannin made his last declaration.

"I'm sorry Minato, but I couldn't allow you to kill yourself. You have ties left in the village, Tsunade left years ago so I don't. I don't regret my life, only that I won't be the godfather you wanted..."

A dejected leader, Minato took flight from the scene with his new Jinchuuriki daughter to the rest of the family.

While the siblings grew 'up' in the extreme adolescence of their youth, Anci developed a taste for violence and occasionally blood. Her kitsune influence changed her into an abuse young lady whom took out her violent urges on the person closest to her, Naruto. While she was an infant it was relatively harmless, but once she got the ability to walk and a slight sense of combat ability it all went downhill. She would constantly play the ruffian with Naruto who didn't appreciate the violence mostly because he do anything to defend himself.

Whenever Anci was caught attacking Naruto (which usually involved using her Kyuubi chakra) by their parents, Minato and Kushina would normally say something around the lines of "She's just playing" or when their were annoyed "You're her older brother so man up!" and when they were the most upset with him, which was most of the time "Quit being so pathetic baka."

As time progressed the growing apathy and verbal assault for the first born child became more and more apparent. To point where Minato and Kushina would brush off Naruto's existence altogether or degrade the child to a breaking point . By the age of nine the blonde haired blue eyed boy grew tired of the mistreatment so he set off on his own. In the village most people actually forgot about him as well. With no mention of said child by his parents, the villagers didn't really recall the boy so he had the chance to live a life on his own accord.

Frightened on the night in which he left, he ventured into a village in which he knew not the people nor the structures. He lived secluded in his home his room specifically, in fear of contact because the only caressing he received was from the pulsating crimson claw his sister was learning to tame. Despite the pain that dwelled there he didn't dare leave because he could only assume that the world on the outside was just as bad and he wouldn't have his room to retreat to. But eventually he couldn't live on that assumption and Naruto decided to roll the dice and venture out for something better.

Sneaking into the village under the cover of night Naruto made his attempt to find his new place of residence. Sadly he decided to make his way to the darker side of town because it gave him more cover. What he didn't know was that this side of town contained the highest amount of violent crime/criminals. As Naruto ventured deeper and deeper into the menacing shantytown wondering whether or not his decision was truly the smartest one. He was jolted out of his thoughts rather abruptly by a less than comforting voice.

"Whatcha doin' here kid?".

"Gyah!" Naruto responded with a surprised yelp which was quickly covered by the mans hand as he has the boy lifted above the ground with other arm under Naruto's neck.

"Shh, keep your voice down boy. You don't want to attract attention do ya'?" The voice asked again hushed this time.

Shaking his head vehemently in a horizontal motion Naruto's body dropped to the ground in a very ungraceful manner.

"W-W-ho are y-y-you?" Naruto said scared keeping his voice down.

"Boy I have little time to waste on ya' so spit out already who you are and why your on my property." The man who was shrouded in darkness said with venom gurgling in his throat.

Looking perplexed about the trespassing accusation, the blonde boy looked to his left to see a fairly large apartment in his immediate vicinity. Realizing that he has already made a mistake the boy tries to quickly rectify his mistake.

"I'm very sorry, Mr..."

"Mr. Doi, Genkei Doi. Boy what are you doing in these parts, don't you know someone could hurt you or worse here?" The man said sounding pleased with the apology by changing his tone to a more friendly, yet still intimidating one.

"I don't...Have a home. I'm looking for a place."

"Hmm, I think I have just the thing; follow me."

Genkei said turning around entering the apartment he made a fuss about not twenty seconds ago. Gulping and hoping he's not biting off more than he could chew, Naruto followed the man.

The walk up the stairs to the seemingly top level was relatively quiet excluding the creaking steps. While Naruto tried to keep his eyes on the black figure that was guiding him, he couldn't help but notice the inside of the building resembled that of a vacant hotel in a horror movie. After two flights of stairs the man suddenly stopped at a door. After shaking the handle a few times the door creaked open. The boy was invited inside and with slight hesitation ventured into the dark room. Trying to get a look at the interior the pitch black room Naruto strained his eyes to get somewhat of a look. He quickly regretted this as the room quickly illuminated overwhelming the kids eyes.

"Oh kami it burns!" The whiskered boy shouted overdramatically.

"Stop complaining it's just a little light."

Rubbing his irritated eyes Naruto turned his head and got the first glimpse of the man Genkei Doi. The man had a goatee with spiky black that had a tinge of gray along the sides not. Genkeis' face was covered with dirt, which was a contrast to his bright red eyes. He wore a dirty tunic (like that of a Rough tunic found on Skyrim) and matching pants.

"You said this was your place. How can you dress so poorly and afford such to live an apartment." Naruto honestly inquired.

"Well BRAT, I get by how I can. Do you really care?"

"I was just curious...Why are you allowing me to stay here in the first place?"

"Ugh, let's just say I would feel pretty shitty leaving a kid out in the night, especially if you're like me and you know what people would do to a kid like you. Plus I'm out of saki; so if I can't get hammered it makes the situation that much worse..." Genkei paused for a minute to catch his breath.

"Now I got to go out. Stay in here and don't mess with anything; you can sleep on the couch." Genkei continued as he exited the room.

After being abruptly left by his host Naruto's gaze focused on the purgatory white wall as he contemplated the latest series of events.,

'After leaving home I was invited into a room by a dirty homeless man where it's probable that he sells drugs for a living. I'm a lucky boy!.. At least I'm not getting abused by that she devil.' Naruto thought as he shivered with the last thought.

With nothing else to do at the immediate moment Naruto laid down on the couch to partake in a break of his mind. But as he lay on the bumpy and uncomfortable sofa a loud shout rang in his ears speeding his heart rate considerably. He frantically looked around for the source of the sound bought the only thing his eyes brought him was a curtain, so he approached. Tentatively he pushed the curtain aside and stared at a reflection of himself. The dark outside mixed in with the illumination of the room only resulted in Naruto seeing only his own reflection in the window. A mumbled language could still be heard however so Naruto concentrated his ear on the conversation outside.

"I'm...you...finished..." A strange voice said from outside. Naruto could only pick up on a few words here and there.

"But...please...time." The voice of Genkei was heard pleading.

The next set of dialogue was clear due to it's lack of complexity.

"No."

It didn't matter any more that the outside was dark because it was soon light up like the night sky on a full moon just cleared of clouds. A crimson monster shot up the front of the apartment building, while sticking to the building quickly take over it like a parasite. While crucial moments passed by the boy was completely petrified, at the same time entranced by the siren flame. As the flame consumed the rooftop what wasn't turned to ash collapsed on the floor below, the one in which our hero stands.

Shaken violently from his wide eyed slumber our hero frantically jumps through the scattered flaming debris looking for an exit. Nowhere however could one be found until a piece of the ceiling fell and knocked a hole through the top floors all the way to the bottom. His shaky breath became audible as he took the first leap into the fiery hole.

"Ugh" was the grunt made as the first jump was acted perfectly. He then took a sharp breath of air which turned out to just be a floating black smog. When he tried to regain his bearings from the fall, a new sensation erupted. Taking another look down into a scary abyss the boy took another chance.

"AHH! *cough* *cough*" The shriek of pain ran through the boys leg and out his mouth as he made the next jump, and as ash entered his respiration expulsion of it became mandatory.

Looking around on the floor the boy noticed that there were people unconscious on their furniture, most likely due to some sort of drug intake. Quickly noticing the buildings further collapse Naruto was forced by his fear to jump down to the next level. Cringing in pain it took everything the blonde boy had not to yell in pain because another intake of the black toxic cloud would surely choke him to death or at least unconsciousness.

"OOOOOW!" screamed the boy again as his legs got another dose of pain from the fall. Simultaneously as the boy screamed so did the residence of the apartment as they gathered what was happening.

The boy hobbled as fast as he could to the door that lie in front of him, and with his will he was able to push the door out. Just in time time to turn around and see more burning debris collapse and block the exit. Prohibiting anyone else's escape from the inferno.

In fear of the screams that could send shivers down the spines of the shinigami himself, Naruto fled as fast as his good leg could carry. Knowing the Anbu would arrive soon to inspect the fire and find the cause, self preservation that was already running on full power was cranked to overload as Naruto looked for a place to hid. He gradually started to make his way to a more productive side of town as he tried to enter any building he could find, pulling on each door.

*pull* "Locked damn." Naruto said quietly.

*pull* "Locked again, damn it." He groaned getting slightly agitated.

*pull* "Locked again! Kami damn it!" The blonde growled getting to his normal voice volume.

*pull* "Are you fucking serious!" He said getting louder.

*pull* "This is bullshit!" Naruto said finally exploding into a shout.

"Hey, check over there!" What was presumed to be an Anbu, directed aloud.

"Shit, there's gotta be some..." Naruto paused as he saw what exactly he had been asking for.

It was the Konoha library. The institute was fortress like in stature and on the inside a universe of knowledge for any explorer that would accept the challenge. Not that this mattered to the boy because something else caught his eye. A platinum tray that stretched the entirety of the building, divided into several different sections. The section that caught the runaway's was that of one for the larger books that the library had, and it was just the perfect size for the little boy. Realizing that every other window of opportunity had closed the boy jumped for the one that was available at the moment.

Opening the tray the runaway jumped down feet first, leaving the metallic flap snapping shut behind him. The path was smooth as Naruto was actually able to slide with ease...Until he reached the end of said slide; he proceeded to fly across the library floor like a hovercraft. During this time of gravitational rebellion Naruto actually felt a sense of euphoria and overriding carefreeness that's been absent since his sister could interact with him. Yep, a true kid he became again, for all of ten seconds...

With a violent smash Naruto hit one of the bookshelves with all of his body weight focused on the side of his arm. Luckily the bookshelf was attached to the wall, so it did not squeeze the life out of the blonde or destroy the rest of the information central. Struggling to stand up Naruto looked around to inspect his environment. It seemed as though the library was empty so caution for volume was low on the priority list.

'I guess I should find some place to make myself...Oh what's this.' The lad pondered as he came across a door.

His hand trembling as he reached for the handle unsure whether or not another surprise would jump out at him and add to his already eventful night. His heart could rest easily because as he opened the door he was welcome to a serene sight. A room shrouded in black, more deep than

the blackness that encased the library's interior due to it's lacking lunar hue. Wanting to rest he walked into the room but he tripped on a pile of rectangular tree coffins. Feeling around for something that would land him to his feet but only grabbed hold one of the coffins. Naruto thinking that he had nothing better to do went over in the moonlight and read the title to himself.

'Lord of the flies. Huh, could be interesting.'

With that notion in mind the runaway opened the book and began his great journey.

Authors corner:

So what did you think of that prolouge? I know it's a lot but thats why we read fanfiction, for substance (kind of odd but just roll with it). I would also like to know how you enjoyed my writing style, was it too much, was it just right? If anything is unclear let me summarize, this Naruto is going to be very smart because of his affinity with books. I thank you for your participation in reading my story and I would thoroughly enjoy reviews. Thanks again, and I'm enjoy writing the antagonizing Naruto I have in mind (Doucheuto (Do-shoo-toe)) and the kind the masses are demanding. Well if you want to tell me something you know where to contact me!
