Few things first.
My previous story from Naruto have started...bad, I just can't find better words to describe that without getting a migraine. That's why for now I'm putting it on Hiatus so I can focus on this one, that's only for now of course and eventually I will start writing it again.
I also wanted to inform that I will change MANY things so it will be different from canon, first off Obito don't die and Rin isn't kidnapped by Kiri because Yagura is still alive and bloodline purge is still in progress just like rebellion. Also there will be several OC with mentions of Bleach(anime Bleach of course) and also few gender-bending. Also first two or three chapters will be a prologue to actual story.
Also in this story Naruto will be two years older than canon.
Many things will be also borrowed from Naruto fanon, of course I will ask each user for permission in using they ideas so it would not offend anyone.
I will also ask you to understand my not too good with english because it's not my native language. Well then I will just shut up and let you all enjoy my story.
Chapter 1: Prologue part 1
(June 24)
A day was slowly ending in Konohagakure but it's far from peaceful day, through the streets Hiruzen Sarutobi was running in his shinobi attire, on his left shoulder is a slash dripping with blood and in his arms he carry a nine years old child with short blond hair, this child is no one else than Naruto Uzumaki.
"What happened Jii-san?!" Asked a startled Naruto, less than one minutes ago he was hanging out around the village searching for someone to play a prank on then in next moment his adoptive grandfather picked him up and started to run.
Hiruzen didn't answered the question, the only thing on his mind is to take the boy away from the village and Danzō who wanted to transfer the Kyuubi from Naruto to himself and take over as a Kage, Hiruzen already send Kakashi to Namikaze compound to pack the scrolls and other things Minato Namikaze left for his child, few more minutes of running and Hiruzen was at the compound where Kakashi was waiting with a backpack and sword wrapped in bandages, Hiruzen placed Naruto down on the ground and placed his hands on Naruto shoulders.
"Listen Naruto, take this things and run away from the village, if you stay here something terrible will happen to you." Said Hiruzen in all seriousness looking at the small boy right in the eyes, Naruto quickly nodded, he knew how his grandfather was and that he never joked about danger, Naruto put on the backpack and grabbed the sword from Kakashi then strapped it to his back before turning toward the Hokage.
"Where should I go?" He asked, Hiruzen took his left hand and began to run through the compound, they run up to the small shrine and entered inside, Hiruzen placed his hand on the floor before the altar and it began to give a faint yellow glow, a fragment of wooden floor moved aside revealing a secret stairs leading down.
"Get in, no matter where you go stay away from Konoha, if things will calm down I will find you…go kid…save yourself." Hiruzen said and Naruto immediately complied, Hiruzen closed the passage after Naruto and stand up, he turned toward Kakashi.
"Would you fight for me Kakashi…I don't have anyone else to ask." Upon hearing this words Kakashi sighed.
"You shouldn't ask Hokage-sama, Naruto is a child of my sensei…it's my duty to protect him…although I don't think we will came from this unharmed." Hiruzen nodded and both shinobi walked out from the shrine, What they saw there were several Root ANBU lead by the man with bandaged eye.
"Danzō…you finally showed your true colors." Hiruzen hissed and his eyes narrowed dangerously, none of the ANBU flinched under the amount of killing intents Hiruzen and Kakashi were releasing, Danzō scanned the area with his left eye and his eye narrowed slightly.
"Where's Jinchūriki?!" He shouted causing a smirk to appear on Hiruzen's face.
"You will not take him, I will take you to hell even if I will die myself." Then he together with Kakashi charged forward.

Meanwhile outside Konoha, Naruto was running away from two ANBU shinobi that are chasing after him and throwing a barrage of kunai and shuriken in his direction which he could barely dodge.
'Not now, I can't die right now, Jii-san wanted me to be safe so I can't let them catch me!' Naruto thought in panic, he was confident with his stamina but even he couldn't run forever, his only choose was to wear them down, his thinking about the plan was interrupted when he saw kunai with explosive tag flew past him and embedded itself in the tree few meters away from, before he could react the tag blown up creating a massive cloud of smoke and sending Naruto into the air.
He let out a scream of pain when splinters and pebbles were send flying by the explosion and pierced his skin, with a loud thud Naruto finally hit the ground after few seconds of inert fly, he landed in a small forest clearing facing up with no strength to fight the two ANBU send after him, Naruto knew it was pointless to struggle because his body was too tired and too bruised to move, few seconds later he passed out.
The two ANBU walked up to the boy with weapon in hand, one stood up on his left side while the other stood on his right, they were about to pick up Naruto but they weren't prepared for what happened next, a snow white blade pierced through the heart of the one on the left while the one on the right have his throat ripped out by the white tiger.

Few minutes earlier in a shrine complex at the north of Mizu no Kuni(Water Country), through the shrine ground a priestesses were doing the rest of the chores for the day, all of them wearing the same clothes which are dark blue hakama pants and white haori with long sleeves.
Inside the shrine placed at the center of the complex two priestesses are meditating, one of them is a short and petite woman with light skin and shoulder-length back hair with several strands of hair hanging between her eyes, the woman could be mistake as a teenager but in truth she is 33 years old, her name is Rukia Yuki, the head priestess of this shrine and a wielder of ice release, she is also an expert in sealing techniques as well as a sage.
The second priestess is a girl no older than 13 years old with dark skin, thick eyelashes and short messy golden blond hair, unlike her mother the girl have well developed curves and she is taller than her, that girl is Tier Yuki Harribel, the daughter of Rukia and a Kumogakure shinobi that was saved by her mother, she is also using ice release.
Suddenly Tier gasped and opened her emerald eyes, after few seconds her pupils turned into slits, a three thin black lines appeared starting from below her left eye, running through the bridge of her nose and ending under the right eye, also, the black pigmentation appeared around her eyes with short claw like pigmentations running from outer corner of each eye, the older woman opened her purple eyes and they went wide from shock.
'One more time she entered her sage mode, her visions are more frequent as of late…maybe I shouldn't start her training at such young age.' Rukia thought while looking at her daughter, she trained her daughter from the age of 6 to make sure that she can take care of herself.
The Tier quickly stand up and run out from the shrine in hurry, Rukia quickly followed her, then she found her daughter on the shrine courtyard looking in the direction of the west, Rukia walked up to her and embraced her from behind.
"What happened dear, is something wrong?" She asked, without even slightest sign of hesitation Tier nodded.
"That boy, he's in danger right now…I must help him." She said in a concern filled voice, Rukia quickly nodded and bite her thumb before pressing both of her hands onto the ground.
"Kuchiyose no Jutsu!" She shouted and a cloud of smoke covered her, when the smoke cleared beside Rukia stood a white tiger slightly bigger than her with cloud-like fur extension at the end of its tail.
"I must get somewhere Toramaru, can you do that?" The tiger nodded and looked at Tier.
"Rukia-sama, Tier-sama, long time no see, grab my tail and I will get us wherever you want." The tiger said in a deep male voice, Tier walked up to the tiger and placed her hand on its head, her hand glowed slightly before the tiger nodded.
"I see, do you have any weapon Rukia-sama?" Rukia nodded and slightly parted her Haori revealing a storage seal on her collarbone, she smeared some leftover blood from her bitted thumb and in a puff of smoke a completely white katana appeared, the tsuba of this sword is a hollow snowflake-like circle and a long white ribbon is attached to its pommel.
"I never leave shrine without Sode no Shirayuki, now let's go." Both women grabbed the tail and all three of them disappeared in a cloud of smoke, they appeared again in a small forest clearing, then they saw two ANBU looking at the battered and wounded boy lying on the ground, Tier wanted to run up to the boy but Rukia outstretched her hand to block her way.
"Don't…I will do this…" She sparred one quick glance at Toramaru who nodded, both Rukia and Toramaru rushed at the two shinobi, before anyone could react Rukia pierced the heart of the ANBU while Toramaru bite down on the throat of the other one and ripped it out spilling blood all over the place, the two ANBU fall dead before Tier could blink, Rukia sighed in relieve and picked up the boy, throwing his backpack and wrapped sword to her daughter, just when she was about to walk away the rain started t pour down.
"Just great." Rukia muttered under her nose before looking at her tiger companion.
"Can you take the three of us to the shrine?" She asked but Toramaru shook his head.
"Not possible, two people is my limit. You should find some place here to tend to his wounds, I can smell pretty strong human scent north from here." Toramaru said, Rukia smiled slightly before turning to her daughter.
"Come Tier, we should hurry." Tier nodded and walked up to her mother, Toramaru simply nodded and disappeared in a cloud of smoke.

Back in Konoha in Namikaze compound, among the corpses of Root ANBU Kakashi Hatake was sitting with several cuts across his body and his Sharingan revealed.
"I'm getting too old for this." Kakashi said with a sigh, his head shoot up when he felt few drops of rain hit his head before it began to pour heavily.
"Shit…now my dogs won't trace him…" Kakashi said aloud, few moments later Hiruzen appeared not too far away from him with his left arm missing, Kakashi looked at his Hokage in shock.
"Hokage-sama!" Kakashi shouted full of worry, he tried to stand up but his wounds didn't let him.
"Don't force yourself Kakashi, we must go and find Naruto." Hiruzen said but then his eyes went wide, he couldn't trace Naruto's chakra, he quickly turned toward Kakashi.
"Can you run?" He asked earning a shake of head from Kakashi.
"Unfortunately…I don't think I can even move and because of this rain my ninken will be useless." Hiruzen looked down solemnly, he walked up to Kakashi and picked him up.
"Let's get patched up, we will start the search in the morning." Kakashi nodded but then he remembered something.
"Wait…what about Danzō?" He asked, Hiruzen shook his head weakly.
"He escaped…but not before I blinded him and cut off his right arm." Kakashi let out a sigh at the good news, at least something good happened this night, Hiruzen started to walk toward the hospital leaving the bodies of ANBU alone.

Back with priestesses, walking north through the forest the two priestesses walked out onto a path and just like Toramaru said there was an roadside inn, without hesitation they walked inside, it wasn't too crowded so it was a blessing for them, after all ninja don't like to be the center of attention, Rukia walked up to the counter.
"Do you have any free rooms?" She asked, the innkeeper was a woman in her thirties with long black hair and brown eyes, the innkeeper nodded and handed her the key, upon paying her Rukia and Tier moved upstairs to they room, it wasn't much, just a two single beds, a table with four chairs and nightstand between the two beds, Rukia placed the boy on the bed and wanted to tend to his wounds…but there wasn't even one scratch except the wound on his head, Rukia began to heal the boy with jutsu but as she finished curiosity get the better of her, she wanted to test her theory by pumping some chakra into the boy…and she did, a very complex seal appeared on his stomach causing Rukia to sigh.
"Like I thought, the boy is a Jinchūriki." Rukia said receiving a confused look from her daughter.
"What's Jinchūriki, mother? Is it bad?" Rukia shook her head at her daughter questions.
"This isn't bad but now I know what could have happened, maybe the boy tried to run away or maybe…something have happened in Konoha, either way we can't return him." This confused Tier even more.
"Why not?" She asked.
"Because if he run away then something terrible must have happened to him and if something is happening in Konoha…his life will be in danger." Tier slightly paled at that, the boy she have visions about and as her mother once said was destined for her was in danger, thinking quickly Tier get an idea.
"Th-then…let's take him with us to the shrine." Rukia giggled slightly at that.
"That could be the best but I would rather take him to the other hidden village." Rukia said and walked up to the door.
"Let's wait for him to wake up, then we will go to Water country." With that said Rukia walked out leaving Tier alone with her thoughts. Tier walked up to the boy and sat down on his bed, she smiled slightly and with her right hand caressed his cheek.
"So you're the one destined to me…I didn't think that I will meet you so soon." She said in a angelic voice, then she thought about the visions she had.
"That must've been hard for you, everyone ignored you and so few people ever showed that they care about you." She sighed and stopped her hand before looking through the window.
'I will not leave you alone.' She thought and lay down beside him with a content smile on her face.

(June 25)
Naruto was woken up from his slumber by the light that reached his eyes through the window, he tried to move but his body felt heavy and sore, then he tried to remember what happened but he couldn't remember anything. His mind was completely blank except his name…Naruto Uzumaki.
Then he heard a gasp so he looked at the source of the sound only to came face to face with a dark-skinned girl with beautiful blond hair, the girl quickly stand up and looked at him.
"A-are you…alright?" She asked, Naruto opened his mouth to speak but his throat was dry, the girl quickly noticed that and walked out from the room leaving Naruto alone and confused.
'What happened…where am I?' His thoughts circled around this questions, he felt powerless...he can only remember his name, nothing else. The girl returned few minutes later with a mug of jasmine tea, she walked up to the bed and placed the mug on the nightstand and turned toward Naruto.
"Can you sit?" Naruto nodded and tried to sit up but the pain in his chest forced him back down, the girl sighed and helped him, after struggling for several seconds Naruto was finally sitting, the girl picked up the tea and blow at it few times to cool it down then she brought it up to his lips, several seconds later Naruto emptied the mug and let out a sigh.
"T…thank…you…" He said weakly causing the girl beside him to smile.
"It's nothing, my name is Tier by the way and you are?" Naruto looked at her once more before answering.
"Naruto…Uzumaki Naruto, did you know what happened?" He asked and Tier's eyes went wide from shock.
"Wh-what do you mean? You don't remember anything?" Naruto nodded, Tier grabbed her chin and closed her eyes, after few seconds of thinking she stand up and moved toward the door.
"Stay here, I will be back soon." With that said and a nod from his side Tier stepped out from the room and went downstairs, there she saw her mother sitting by the table so she joined her.
"Okā-sama…he don't remember anything…" Rukia stiffened at this words, she slowly turned her head toward her daughter who was sitting beside her with serious expression on her face, after the initial shock subsided Rukia sighed.
"I knew that wounds was serious but not so much, now he won't be able to return." Rukia said and stood up with her daughter doing the same.
"It's time to go." After Rukia said that both priestesses walked upstairs and to they room, Naruto was sitting on the bed while looking around the room, his attention snapped back to the two people that entered the room.
"I see you finally wake up, my name is Rukia Yuki and the girl beside me is Tier but you already know that, right?" After seeing him nod Rukia smiled and stepped closer.
"Your previous clothes were torn so I gave you new one." Naruto looked down, he was wearing a dark blue shorts and black shirt, on his feet were black shinobi sandals, Naruto looked back up at the woman.
"Did you know…what happened to me?" He asked, Rukia could see that he was scared but she shouldn't hide anything from him.
"I'm not sure but it wasn't good at all, I must ask you something." Naruto looked at her curiously.
"Sure, you can ask." Rukia nodded and looked him right in the eyes.
"Do you want to come with us?" Rukia expected him to think about this question but he immediately nodded.
"Sure." Rukia was staring at the boy with wide eyes, her mind still worked on his answer, finally she said.
"What?" Naruto slowly stand up from the bed and walked up to Tier who smiled at him, then Tier looked at her mother.
"Didn't you heard him mother, he wants to go with us." Rukia turned toward them finally snapping out from her shock.
"But, why? You don't know us." Naruto just shrugged.
"What else I can do, I don't remember anything."

Several minutes later they were already on road, Rukia walked ahead while Naruto was walking beside Tier.
"Umm…Rukia-san?" Naruto said catching her attention, she slightly turned her head toward him not stopping even for a second.
"Yes? Did something happened?" She asked, Naruto quickly shook his head.
"It's not that, I just want to know where we are going." Rukia stopped abruptly after hearing that, she turned full around and sheepishly rubbed the back of her head.
"I didn't told you did I?" Naruto nodded and Tier shook her head, after a moment of silence Rukia sighed and looked at Naruto.
"We will take you to Mizu no Kuni…but there's also another question." Naruto looked at her curious as to what the question is.
"Naruto…do you want to be a ninja?" Rukia asked with a smile gracing her lips, his eyes went wide from shock, all he was able to do was stare, after several seconds of silence Tier grabbed his shoulder and shook him lightly, Naruto quickly shook his head snapping his attention back to reality. Instead of words Naruto decided to act, he run up to Rukia and hugged her around the waist.

That morning in Konoha, behind the desk in Hokage office Hiruzen was looking at the person in front of his desk with all seriousness, Hiruzen summoned Tsume Inuzuka to his office to give her a mission specially assigned to her.
"I assume you know why I summoned you here?" Hiruzen asked still not taking his gaze away from her.
"Yes Hokage-sama, who I have to find?" She asked with great respect in her voice, Hiruzen looked down in sadness.
"Naruto Uzumaki." That name quickly caused Tsume to look at Hiruzen with wide eyes.
"Wh-what do you mean? Where's Naruto? Did something happened?" She asked hysterically, Hiruzen just sighed at that, it was no secret that Tsume and other older kunoichi cared for Naruto, they know about the seal but they can recognize the difference between prison and prisoner…not like the others.
"Calm down Tsume, that's why I wanted you for this job, yesterday some…unfortunate accident happened, I had to get Naruto out of Konoha." Upon hearing that Tsume nearly jumped onto Hiruzen with intention of tearing out his throat but stopped, after all something serious must have happened if Hiruzen was a part of it, then he noticed his hand was wrapped in bandages.
"Hokage-sama…what happened to your hand?" She asked with voice full of concern. Hiruzen looked at his hand and sighed.
"Danzō." This name immediately forced full attention from Inuzuka matron, she immediately connected Naruto with Danzō and bandaged hand of Hiruzen, a theory appeared in her head so she decided to not ask any more questions.
"Then I will be going." With that she walked out from the office leaving Hiruzen alone with his paperwork, he looked at the pile of paper and pulled out a book with orange cover from the drawer in his desk, he opened the book and started to read.
"Five more minute." He grumbled under his nose and continued to read, after all there isn't much he can do beside sending out people for search.
(To be continued...)
I hope you enjoyed this short chapter for now, I forgot to mention that Naruto will be with multiple women.
I also like to thanks user Lawrence Helmbain for this idea. It gave me several great ideas for this story.
Bye for now and leave reviews, any review will do.
