Authors note: I wanted to give writing another try, according to some people I have talked to I'm pretty good at it, but I just wasn't feeling my stories. Maybe one day I will go and complete them but until then I will be starting this story. I hope to finish this one, and hopefully you will enjoy.
Dialogue: "Hello."
Thoughts: 'Hello'
Loud/Authoritative/Kyuubi: "Hello."
Loud/Authoritative/Kyuubi thinking: 'Hello'
We begin our story with young Naruto, today is his birthday, his seventh to be exact. You would expect a young boy to be happy on his birthday, but he was far from it.
"Jiji... I know that your busy being the Hokage and all" Naruto whispered
"But I just really wanted you to make it to my birthday this year."
Sitting atop his bed leaning against his wall, Naruto found himself sad. He had seen the other children have big celebrations on their birthdays but never on his. On a happier day Naruto might have thought of the Kyuubi festival going on outside as a celebration for him, but he knew it wasn't. The year prior he had tried to go out on his birthday, and it did not end well. If Their hadn't been an anbu in the
area when he got cornered in that alley. He didn't want to think about it. Naruto was cut from his musing when a brick burst through his window narrowly missing his head. Naruto looked out the window to make out a figure. He recognized that man.
'That's the guy that threw me out of his store yesterday..' he thought.
Naruto was used to this kind of treatment, but this time it struck a cord.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAGHHHHH!" Naruto yelled in frustration
"WHY, WHY, WHY WHY WHY!WHY IS IT ALWAYS ME, WHY CAN'T THEY JUST LEAVE ME ALONE" unbeknownst to Naruto, his eyes began flashing red.
"WHY DO THey, hate me so much..." Tears began streaming down the young boy's cheeks.
Naruto sobbed for a bit then wiped the tears from his eyes, not one to cry for long.
"Fine if that's the way that they wanna play it" Naruto walked over and picked up the brick from the floor
"Then let's play!"

THE SHOPPING DISTRICT
'Everybody is distracted from the festival, there's nobody here' Naruto surmised.
Our young Jinchuuriki is currently standing in front of the shopkeepers store.
"Take this you stupid jerk!" He stated as he threw the brick through the front window.
The glass shattered as expected, but then everything was quiet, no alarm.
'Huh' thought Naruto
'That was kind of uhm, whats that word that jiji always say's? Anticlimactic? I don't know why, but I thought something more would have happened... wait a minute! Since no one is here, and the windows broken I could go in and get those kunai I was trying to buy... but Jiji told me stealing was wrong...' Naruto furiously shook his head.
'NO!, this guy deserves it, I'm sorry Jiji'
It was with this thought that naruto entered the store, quickly spotting a practice
set of kunai and shuriken
'Alright now I can practice and throw these things just like Jiji, he'll have to make me a ninja then, and then people like this guy will stop disrespecting me!' Naruto thought
Naruto was on his way out of the store when he saw a pedestal at the very back with a plaque on front, he couldn't be sure, but for some reason he just felt like he had to go check it out, so he walked over to it and on further inspection realized it was just a book.
'Pft whatever I don't care' Naruto thought.
He turned and began to leave, but he still couldn't get the book out of mind so he turned back around, and began reading the plaque.
GENUINE UZUMAKI HEIRLOOM NOT MUCH IS KNOWN ABOUT THE UZUMAKI, BUT WHAT IS KNOW IS THAT THEY WERE EXCELLENT SEALERS, AND HAD SOME SORT OF TIE TO THE SENJU CLAN. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN PURCHASING THIS ARTIFACT PLEASE CONTACT ME AT THE FRONT COUNTER SO THAT WE MAY DISCUSS A PRICE.
'No way...' Naruto pondered
'It has my name on it.. could it be my families?'
Naruto couldn't believe it, he had no family, that's what he was told. He was found on the night of the kyuubi attack at jiji's doorstep, with a bracelet stating Naruto Uzumaki.
'If I really had a family...' That was all the conviction Naruto needed.
He ripped open the bag of blunted kunai and shuriken, took a kunai and put the rest in a pouch on his leg. He took a deep breath and swung down with it as hard as he could. Immediately alarms started sounding, Naruto could barely think.
'I HAVE TO GET OUT OF HERE!' with that thought Naruto grabbed the book, hopped out the window and ran into an alleyway nearby.
Already he could hear people approaching, he ducked behind a dumpster and glanced around to see who was there. From his perch he could see two masked ninja standing in front of the store. He couldn't hear what they were saying, since the alarm was still going off but it looked like they were
about to split up, presumably to look for him.
'I have to get out of here' he thought
'But where do I go?' searching the alleyway left him with only one option.
'awe man, not the sewer...'
Even though it didn't sound like a good idea, it was his only option, so with as much strength as a 7 year old could muster he moved the solid door to the manhole and began to climb down, sliding the door back in place.
So I hope if anyone read this that they enjoyed it, and know that I will not be posting chapter 2 until this chapter gets 5 reviews. If I don't get at least that many then I won't really think my story is all good, so I will begin writing again in preparation for if I get 5 reviews. Take care until next time.
