A.N: Okay. This is a fanfiction story I came up with and decided to do a little while ago. It took me about three days to plan out the first chapter which is naturally my process for everything. And before we start I would like to point out; First, Updates will be Sunday evenings, Wednesday evenings and Friday afternoons. Second: Each chapter will be two thousand words long and A.N's will be posted every five chapters. Third: In this fic most people might think that Naruto will be over powered but I assure you he will not be OP. Fourth: Sometimes updates won't come on their specific dates because I may get writers block or just be busy with exams as I am in 12th grade. Fifth: That's it really, I just thought that it would be a little stupid without five notices. •

A nine year old boy watched out into the wondrous village known as the Hidden Leaf Village. The lights of the streets and fireworks that was being sent up into the sky would be considered a beautiful thing by most but this boy was different. Today would be considered both good and bad by anybody but it was different for this boy. Today was a 'special' day for him.
Today was October 10th. His birthday. Normally one would play with friends and open presents on a birthday but…this boy wasn't very well liked in his village. He had been an orphan since birth, his parents dying when the great Kyūbi no Yōko attacked the village exactly nine years ago.
As the village celebrated the day the Kyūbi was defeated they also mourned for lost ones and the Yondaime Hokage: Minato Namikaze. The Fourth Hokage had sacrificed his own life to stop the Nine Tailed Fox by sealing it into a boy who lost his parents that night…Naruto Uzumaki.
However, Naruto didn't know that he held such a dangerous demon within his body. Now, there is a complete difference between Jinchūrikis and Bijūs. A Jinchūriki is a person who holds the Tailed Beast within them while a Bijū was the Tailed Beast itself.
But the people of the world only saw Jinchūrikis as tools for war or not even human. That was why Naruto has been beaten, berated and verbally abused simply because the idiots of the world didn't know the difference between Human and Demon.
The only people who really seemed to care about Naruto was the Sandaime Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi and a ramen restaurant owner and his daughter, Teuchi Ichiraku and Ayame Ichiraku. Said people had visited Naruto earlier and he had received free ramen from the Ichiraku family and the Sandaime gave him an envelope with some extra money.
Naruto's train of thought was derailed when his stomach grumbled and he sighed. He got up from his sitting position on the balcony and dusted off his clothes from the dirty ground. He walked to the door and opened it and soon entered his apartment with hunger written across his face.
He went to his cupboard and pulled out some cups of ramen, yes, some cups, not one, not two but about six. He put the water in the kettle and lighted his little stove. He waited the three minutes he hated and finally had his ramen. He ate quickly and decided to retire for the night. He changed into his nightwear and locked up his apartment and took off all of the nights and went into his bed. His head hit the soft material off the pillow and not too long after, sleep took him.
Location: Mind Scape {Naruto}Time: Present.
Naruto opened his eyes to find himself in a dark hallway. He could barely see his hands in front of his and began to slightly panic. He began to feel around only to feel absolutely and totally nothing. Suddenly, the walls lit up with lights and he could see at least seven feet in every direction except behind him.
He slowly began to walk down the hall, a little frightened I might ask and continued. He saw multiple doors on each side of the hallway but the most interesting thing was that at the end it had a humongous door with the image of a nine tailed fox. Naruto gulped but for some reason he simply couldn't stop from moving forward.
He soon opened the door which was surprising as he was so small and it was so big. As the doors closed behind him-and the lock went back into place with a loud and resounding 'clack'-two red eyes opened making him almost piss himself…almost.
The red eyes with black slits peered at him and then suddenly came into view. It was a giant fox with nine tails swishing behind him and Naruto's eyes widened as he realized what exactly that was. The Kyūbi No Yōko.
"You're the Kyūbi!" Naruto shouted in shock as he slowly walked back until his back came up against a wall. He looked around in fear as he saw he was trapped in a box formed by walls with only the Kyūbi in front of him. "Where am I?"
The Kyūbi let out a deep chuckle. "You are in your mind, this is my domain to where the Yondaime Hokage sealed me and made you my third Jinchūriki," The Kyūbi said simply and Naruto face turned to one of confusion and Kyūbi knew right away what it was that confused him. "A Jinchūriki, or Human Sacrifice is someone who has a Bijū or Tailed Beast sealed within them, there are eight others like me…and it interest me that all of your fear has dissipated."
Naruto remained silent as the ankle length water he stood in moved slightly from the vibrations of the Kyūbi's deep voice and the swishing of its tails. Naruto slowly sat down in the water and surprisingly he didn't get wet and he placed his head between his legs and remained quiet.
"Why me?" He asked himself quietly and the Kyūbi rose one of his big eyebrows. "WHY DID HE USE ME?" Naruto yelled this time and it started to become clear to the Kyūbi who snickered as an idea came to him.
"Yes, cry, let me out so we can use OUR power to level this village for all the wrong it has done you!" Kyūbi yelled maniacally in an effort to be release. He smirked in satisfaction when Naruto slowly got up and walked to the gates that restrained him from moving about properly.
"No," Naruto said as he stopped and glared at the Kyūbi. "The Yondaime sealed you in me because he needed to save the village, I know that the villages hate me for holding the thing that destroyed their beloved village and killed love ones but that isn't a reason to let you run rampant." Naruto said and turned around. Without waiting for the Kyūbi's response he began walking towards the darkness to leave the domain despite not knowing where to go.
"Wait!"
Naruto stopped and looked back at the Kyūbi over his shoulder. The Kyūbi slowly laid down and closed his eyes. He let out a sigh and called Naruto closer. Naruto looked around unsurely but complied to the Kyūbi's command and walked closer.
"Yes?"
"Since you aren't going to let me out let me give you somethings," Kyūbi said and Naruto's face went from impassive to confused really quick. "Each Bijū has the ability to give their Jinchūriki or Host abilities, having nine tails and the day being your ninth birthday I can give you mine abilities." Kyūbi explained and Naruto narrowed his eyes.
"How can I know you're telling the truth and won't use this opportunity to get out of me and destroy Konoha?" Naruto asked and Kyūbi sighed and was about to speak but Naruto cut it off. "This village may treat me like dirt but that doesn't mean I want it reduced to dirt." He said and Kyūbi chuckled deeply.
"The truth is that you can't really trust me and its up to you to do so but," Kyūbi then closed his eyes then dozens of kanji came up on the ground. Upon closer inspection Naruto saw that the kanjis that were there were as follows. 'Fire', 'Water', Earth', 'Lightning' and 'Wind'. Other than those there were lines drawn showing combinations of the five elements. "This is a Nature Transformation Wheel, it shows the five elements and what their combinations will bring."
Naruto nodded and looked at the wheel in awe. "So I can pick anything from here?" Kyūbi nodded and he looked more perplexed. "Okay, I sort of understand but what exactly do the elements do?" He asked and Kyūbi sweat dropped a little for Naruto's law knot attention laying in the class.
"Katon or Fire allows you to mold Chakra into flames, the more Chakra and more control the hotter the fire and more concentrated it is, Suiton or Water allows you to release your Chakra around you and it reacts to the moisture in the airs to form water based attacks, Doton or Earth allows you to control earth in your surrounding area should it be on the floor or walls with the aid of Chakra, Raiton or Lightning allows you mold Chakra into Lightning and you can control thunder clouds to a certain extent and lastly, Fūton or Wind is the most complicated out of the five, it takes the air around you and fuels it with Chakra thus making it sharp and fluent this being the strongest of the five in certain terms."
"What's Chakra?"
The sound of one of the Kyūbi's tails hitting him square on the face made a repayment 'smack' as he…face tailed, or something of the sort. He sigh and figured it would be long but before he went on he closed his eyes again and more changes were made. His form changed from one of a giant fox to one of a six foot one inch man with spike Crimson hair and dark eyes. He wore a black cloak with a piece of paper with the kanji for seal on the button.
"This is my human form, call me Kurama by the way, now to start over all the lessons you had in the academy but found things better to do that listen to your instructor." Kyūbi said with slight menace and Naruto blushed in embarrassment. "Chakra; Chakra is the power we use to do the multiple types of Jutsu, there is Ninjutsu, Genjutsu, Taijutsu, Fuinjutsu, etcetera, like I said before, Chakra can be split into the five main elements when being used for Ninjutsu, do you remember the five main elements?"
Naruto nodded with a smile. "Katon or Fire, Suiton or Water, Doton or Earth, Raiton or Lightning and finally Fūton or Wind." He answered and Kurama nodded with a foxy grin and realized this would be a lot easier.
"Good, now, each of these elements can combine with another to form a sub element that is also classified as a Elemental Kekkei Genkai." Kyūbi explained and Naruto rose his hand. Kurama rose an eyebrow and told him to voice his concern.
"What's a Kekkei Genkai?"
"A Kekkei Genkai or Bloodline Limit is a special ability that is usually passed down in clans, every clan has something that classifies them as a clan but some, the more elite, have Kekkei Genkai, and Kekkei Genkai can come in the form of elements, unnatural shifts in nature and/or the human body and finally in the form of a Dōjutsu."
Naruto nodded as he understood most of it. "So, what's a Dōjutsu?"
Kurama rubbed his temples and sighed. "A Dōjutsu or Eye Techniques are techniques that one needs special sight to do, take the Uchiha clans legendary Sharingan for example or the Hyūga clans Byakugan."
"So you're telling me that the people with the funny red eyes and pupil less eyes actually are Hyūgas and Uchihas who have the Byakugan and Sharingan?" He asked with a hand on chin and Kurama nodded his head. "Alright, I understand." Naruto said and then yawned.
"It seemed you are tired," Kurama observed. "Take a rest and I will begin giving you the nine abilities, you can't know what they are of I am giving you them by surprise, and I only have a limited amount of time before the end of your birthday so, I will call you in your mind scale tomorrow, understood?"
Naruto gave a swift nod and soon faded away leaving the Kyūbi to go over his previous actions. He would normally try to kill his Jinchūriki at first sight but Naruto was different. He wasn't like the two red heads before him. He was, kinder.
