Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto.

A/N: I am searching a beta reader right now that will be able to improve my story…grammatical wise…because when I thought I lost my account and have to post it in my sister's account, someone review that it has many grammar mistakes in it though I myself did not spot any. Well, since English is my second language, it is not intentional in any way…and I probably mixed some American and British English somewhere…Anyway, since I have recovered my account, I am going to post it back in it.

I am very sorry for the long wait. Hopefully, the revised version is going to be better than previous version.

Definitive Pairing: Naruto x Shikamaru x Shino x Gaara x Undecided, Chouji x Ino, Neji x Temari, Lee x Tenten, Kakashi x Iruka, Ibiki x Anko, Asuma x Kurenai, Kiba x Sai, etc

Prologue:

Why? It is the only question that a young Naruto can ask himself as he huddles in his apartment, feeling very cold and so alone. He has never been a bad boy. He never steals another's possession nor has he hurt anyone or even kill anyone. So why do people want to hurt him? Why does old man Hokage and his ANBUs never interferes with the beatings before it's too late?

Why? Why? WHY? Naruto can only scream the question in his mind, too afraid that if he speaks out loud the villagers will come and finish him off.

I wish I have a mother to care for me and a father to protect me…or an older brother…I don't care…I just want a family to love, cherish, and protect me. Naruto wish desperately even when he knows that it is a futile thing, trying to not let his tears fall. He has already cries enough and no one ever care for his tears. No, they do not care. They take pleasure in seeing it and hearing his sobs. So, he will not cry from now on. He will not give them the pleasure of hearing it.

Do you wish to know child of man? A deep guttural voice is suddenly heard by Naruto, scaring him but also piqued his curiosity since he does not notice anyone near him.

"Who…are you?" Naruto ask tentatively with voice so small that no one is able to hear even if they are close by.

Come inside your mind, child of man…I shall reveal to you…the entire truth that your kind hide from you…the sin that your kind has commit…all in the name of power. The voice reverberates strongly, making Naruto wince as he holds his head in pain.

Though he is in pain, he is so very curious and desperate for the reason why he is hated so much so he decides to follow the voice instruction despite what he is told by Hokage. He does not have it in him to care now. The only thing he want now is the truth and truth only, nothing else matter. The question now, to him, is how do you enter your own mind?

Before Naruto can voice the question out loud, he suddenly black out and finds himself in a sewer that is in dire need of cleaning and some light to illuminate the path.

"Where am I? Last thing I remember is…" Naruto whisper as quite as he can be, still very much afraid from making loud noise.

"Come child of man so we may sees one another. Then, I shall tell you the truth you crave; the truth that have been denied to you and your origin." The voice sound even louder now and more here than previously and Naruto hesitantly walk forward, his intuition guiding him forward deeper inside his mind amongst the twisting path the sewer has.

When Naruto stop walking, he is standing before a huge prison gate that has absolutely no light in it. There is a steady sound of footstep approaching near the gate though and Naruto direct his gaze towards the sound, peering in curiously but cautiously as experiences has taught him for years.

"Well…I guess I should wish you a 'Happy birthday' as human custom dictates…unfortunately for you, I am no human and will not lower myself to follow human custom. Though, I do applaud you for surviving until your sixth birthday…it is no easy feat especially for a weak, fragile human." The voice say, finally revealing his form as that of a fox. A huge fox with nine tails swishing behind him even as he grins maliciously as he takes in the small child before him.

"…Kyuu…bi?" Naruto questions, mind whirling with various questions that he has no answer though he has no doubt that the Kyuubi before him has it. The answers to his questions that have plague him since he can think for himself.

To Be Continued

A/N: I am sorry that it takes me so long…and I am sorry that I am reposting the story from the very beginning. I don't think there'll be many people following this…but well…I can't blame you guys...in any cases, I am reposting this story and completely revamping it…to try to make it better with better grammar and flow…but I will probably mixed the American and British version of English since that is what I am used to. It is after all my second language, so please don't hesitate to point out my mistakes. Thank you very much!
