Disclaimer: I do not and will never own Naruto, and all that stuff. I hate reading disclaimers on each chapter so this will be the only one.
Summary: No one knows about the kyuubi. Why? The third sets out to make Naruto his secret weapon loyal only to him, unfortunately with a not so evil fox to help Naruto things don't go quite as planed.
Chapter 1
Pain.
Pain and anger.
That is all there was. The pain had defined her existence for such a long time that it was hard to remember what it had been like before the pain. But the anger came and went, she was only able to control it for so long before it completely took over her mind. After a while the anger would recede leaving her alone with the pain once again. But this time was different, something had helped stir up her anger and from the sane part of her mind she watched as the pain and anger made the rest of her mind respond. Lashing out at any and everything in her way she cut a path of destruction through the trees, following that which had enraged her.
Then she saw it, the walls looming in front of her and the tiny creatures coming to challenge her. What remained of her sanity cried for them to flee, save themselves from what she had become. But they persisted, they fought and died defending their home and as their tiny attacks added to her pain her anger grew. She prayed that someone would finally put her out of her misery that they would be about to save themselves, their home and save her from herself.
Then he came the man who was destined to change the world that night. He stood on the head of his companion tall, strong, unafraid of the horrors she was unleashing around him. He looked into her eyes and for a moment there was an understanding between them. He knew what was happening to her and he knew he could help but he wanted something in return. She was happy to agree to anything if only it would spot the pain. Seeing something in her that convinced him she agreed he took a deep breath and begin. He made some hand seals and prepared to save her. Whatever he did it worked she felt herself begin to fade from that plain of existence.
And then she knew no more. For six years she slept as the pain and anger receded leaving her pain free and in peace for the first time in hundreds of years. She took a deep breath, and then another as all her memories begin to return, the good and the bad. She remembered the joy of the family she once had and recounted the sorrow she felt as the thought of what she had done in her pain and anger. But she knew she had a job to do, she had promised that man and she had no intention of trying to get out of it.
Looking around the kyuubi begin to wonder the halls of her new home, in search of the box the man had left and the child who was going to be her new student.

A six year old Uzumaki Naruto sat on a bench feeling tired. He was tired of the looks he always got from the town's people, the way they looked at him like he was some sort of disease they might catch. But the worst had happened today when he had overheard some people talking about him. As he thought back on it he wanted to cry.
Yesterday had been a good day, he had made a friend. A boy named Katou had come up to him and asked him to play. They had had fun until Katou saw his parents, as they parted ways they promised to meet the next day. So this morning he had gone to the park early and waited, but after a while he got tired so he found a nice shaded spot to take a nap. From his spot he had heard Katou come up with his parents.
He was talking excitedly about his new friend that he was going to meet again today. When Katou mentioned his name his parents froze looks of alarm on their faces. They shared a look and to Naruto's horror they told Katou he could never see Naruto again. The child looked shocked and asked why. They then revealed why Naruto was shunned, the horrors that the Uzumaki family had committed in their native whirlpool and the suspicion that they had led the kyuubi to Konoha. The only survivor of the small clan had been the child born on the day of the kyuubi attack a bad omen if ever they had seen one. No the couple would not have their child associating with such a menace to society.
Once he had heard about what his family had done Naruto had run. How could his family do such horrible things. But why would they blame him, yes he played some pranks on the people who had always been so mean to him but he was not a bad person was he? It was not his fault that he had been born into a family that had done such horrid things.
At least the old man liked him, he could not be that bad if the leader of the village liked him. He resolved that he would prove to everyone that he was a good person despite his family. He was starting at the academy in a few weeks and he would become the best ninja in the village, he would prove that he was not a menace he would not bring misfortune to Konoha.
With those thoughts filling his head he headed back to his lonely apartment, unaware of that he was being spied upon.

Sarutobi Hiruzen third hokage of Konohagakure gave a small chuckle, looking up from his crystal ball. Everything was going well with the brat. The kid had finally overheard the story of his family. He had worked very hard to have just the right rumors spread about the boy. Sowing the seeds of distrust and fanning the fire every time it looked like people where starting to forget about the elusive Uzumaki's.
Not that he had any problems with the Kushina, the only Uzumaki who actually lived in Konoha and mother of Naruto but she had been the perfect example of how bad the clan was, she had been shy around people so not many people knew her personally. But everyone knew of her reputation as a ninja. The red head known as red death on the battle field was used as an example of what the clan was capable of.
And with a few kind words to the child every once in a while he was able to gain his trust, he knew that with time, that brat would trust only him, he would train the vessel of the kyuubi to be everything he wanted, loyal only to him. In just a few short years he would have a powerful weapon that would be unstoppable.
And the best part was that he had managed to isolate the child without revealing that he was a jinchuriki to anyone. It would have been easy to make everyone hate the container by revealing the truth, but that was one of his closest graded secrets. No one knew about it, not even his closest advisors, he had been the only one there when Minato had sealed the beast inside his child and with the forth's death he was the only one who knew. It was then that he had seen the opportunity in front of him to create a super solder loyal only to him.
Sarutobi chuckled thinking of what he could do with the child, once again thanking Minato for keeping his marriage with Kushina and her subsequent pregnancy from everyone. While the fourth had done this to protect his family, it had enabled him to do whatever he wanted now that they both were dead.
There was a knock on the door and the hokage quickly deactivated his privacy seals once again thanking the fourth for installing them, that man was truly a genius when it came to seals. If not for the seals he may have been found out. Damn his habit of muttering whenever he was concentrating. He had been a shinobi for over fifty years and hokage for over half that time, yet he just could not kick the habit of speaking his thoughts out loud.
The hokage sighed calling for the person to come in, it was time to get back to work he could not spend all his time on the kyuubi brat.

Well that was interesting, kyuubi had finally found the box that the man, she now knew as Minato Namikaze, had left for her. Her new home seemed to be the mind of his son Naruto, and he was the one she was suppose to help.
Inside the box was information on his family jutsu, history along with everything she would need to get into his family estate, which the seal master had sealed to prevent anyone from disturbing it. Everything not in the box would be there.
Well it was time to get out of here and greet her new student. If what she had seen of his memories from her search he was going to need all the help he could get, and she was going to need more information.
