A teenage boy flew into the night with an amazing speed. Tears streamed down his face. He wore a black undershirt and bright orange pants but his jacket was missing. It had been left back there. In the place that Naruto knew he would never go back into ever again.

It had been a normal day for most of Konoha but something seemed very off for Naruto. The villagers had been looking at him with strange looks all day. They had strained looks of happiness on their faces. They were also following him to the Hokage Tower. Naruto looked at them before breaking into a dead run. He sped up the stairs and slammed the door to Tsunade's office behind him. He collapsed against the door, completely out of breath."Baa-chan! The villagers are acting weirder than normal." Naruto said when he saw Tsunade standing by the window. He sensed that something was actually wrong. "Baa-chan?" he said.

Tsunade slowly turned, revealing tears. A sob escaped her as she moved towards him. Her hand rested on his shoulder and more tears fell. "Naruto, I'm so sorry. They found a loophole." was all she managed to get out before her body was overtaken by sobs.

Naruto backed up and the sound of someone clearing their throat. He spun around and saw some of Konoha's clan heads and Homura, Danzo, and Koharu, Konoha's council. "What the heck is going on?!" he yelled. If they were the ones who did this to Tsunade………….

"Uzumaki Naruto, you are hereby banished from Konoha for your acts of treason in attacking Hyuuga Neji, Inuzuka Kiba, and last, Uchiha Sasuke." Danzo smirked widely. They were finally going to be rid of the demon.

Naruto narrowed his eyes. Neji and Kiba? During the Chuunin exams. Sasuke? At the Valley of the End, where they had successfully brought Sasuke back. Of course, almost all of them had been injured or died but Sasuke had been brought back. They had brought him back with both his arms and legs broken but the others were still a lot worse off.

"You have one hour to get out." Danzo said before walking out the door.

Naruto was floored. This was really happening. He turned towards Tsunade. She had done all she could, he could see. He walked over and hugged her. "I'll keep your necklace safe." he whispered before running. He ran to his home, planning on getting some stuff, but he froze. His house was burning, adding to the red of the setting sun.

Naruto began to run when the villagers noticed him.

Naruto had been running for a little over an hour now and so far he hadn't seen anyone. Just as he thought that, a kunai lodged itself in a nearby tree. A startled yell escaped his mouth as four Anbu surrounded him.

"Kit!!! Let me out for a bit!!! I can stop them!!!" Kyuubi shouted in his mind.

"And why should I trust you?" Naruto growled back.

"I know that you can't but something has changed. I will explain later, just trust me!" Kyuubi pleaded. Okay, that sounded a little strange.

Naruto had to make a quick choice.

The Anbu saw that he was distracted so they threw some more kunai and shuriken. But they weren't expecting them to be blown back at them.

'Naruto' looked up at them, revealing the blood red eyes with slits in them. Kyuubi's eyes.

"Kyuubi, don't kill them." Naruto said.

"Alright kit but they still must pay." "You'll pay for this." Kyuubi had a wide smirk on his face. He did a few quick hands signs. "Genjutsu: Ikijigoku!" Kyuubi's smirked seemed to grow even wider. The Anbu froze, their eyes going distant, before they fell down onto the ground, unconscious.

"What did you do to them?!"

"I showed them their worst fears. Now, I'm just going to convince them that they killed you. Genjutsu: Maboroshi Hasamikomu!" Kyuubi cast one more genjutsu before sitting down. "Kid, I need to spill a bit of your blood to convince them that you were killed. My abilities will make blood as quickly as its spilled. Will you let me?"

"Yes."

Kyuubi nodded and grabbed one of the swords from the Anbu. He made a wide slash mark and blood covered the blade. He made sure to drip some on the Anbu before healing himself. He also burnt the ground, making it look like they had already disposed of his body. "Rest kit. I will get you away from here."

Naruto nodded and drifted off into a healing sleep.

"Dang it! No matter what I try, I won't be able to bring my clan higher in its ranks!" a frustrated girl yelled. Her long kimono sleeves whipped around and the bandages that came out of the end of the short kimono were drenched when she kicked at the water.

Aisu-Otome Ayakayi was her name. As she furiously hit at the water, her ice blue hair held in a long ponytail whipped around. Her senses picked up movement and she immediately disappeared.

Ayakayi watched as a figure slowly walked into the clearing. Her eyes narrowed. What would a normal person being doing this far out in the so called "bad-lands"? From what she could tell, the person was a little shorter than her, wearing black and another very dirty color. He, which she guessed do to his figure, seemed somewhat exhausted. Her sensitive ears picked up his murmurs as he headed for the lake.

"….this might be it. We've been out here for almost a month with little to eat, I'm so starving. I really wish I could have some of old man Teuchi's and Ayame's ramen. Shut up, you know there's nothing you can do. You've already combined at least a tail with me and I'm still dieing. Shut up, Baka-Kitsune." the young man, Naruto, muttered before falling face first into the lake.

That was it for Ayakayi. She didn't care if he was an outsider, her mom had taught her that everyone deserves a chance to live. Her legs and body moved as fast as they could, in hopes of helping the complete stranger who would actually change her life forever.
