It was about Midnight in in Konoha; most of the population was going to sleep or at least preparing for it.
"Geez Mum! Give me a minute to at least take out the trash!" A boy around the age of 8 yelled to his Mother in one of the poorer Konoha districts.
As the boy was taking out the rubbish he heard a clattering at the end of the street. Like all normal people, he went to investigate what made the noise.
As he reached the corner he saw a what looked like a shadow running at an incredible pace, and then there was nothing. He looked around just in case there was anything else interesting, but it was just a dark alleyway with nothing else of value.

Naruto dashed over the rooftops in Konoha, speedily leaving the child who had almost saw him. It had been at least five or six years since Naruto had been searching bins in Konoha for Scrolls, Food and even weapons if he was lucky. He looked to be about 4, 7". He had spikey blond hair that was barely visible in the cold night due to his mask that covered most of his face, he made sure to attach a special piece of fabric to decreases his visibility even more at night to cover his hair. He was wearing ANBU issue pants (that he had found in the trash with a few small tears), a black coat that had a slight tinge of green running down it, beneath his coat was a mesh shirt and a shinobi quality black undershirt, made to protect him from stray kunai and sharpnel. Finally was his mask, most likely, it was worth more to him than anything else he would ever find.
~FLASHBACK NO JUTSU~
A six year old Naruto was desperately running away from a mob of civilians chasing him with weapons and items of torture.
"Get back here you Demon bastard!" One of the angry civilians shouted.
"You killed my son! Now die for it Kyuubi!" Shouted an angry woman holding a flaming torch.
Naruto continued running, tears streaking down his face, wondering what he did to deserve this punishment, "What did I do? Was it the pranks? I'll never do them again!" screamed Naruto in fear as he ran into an alleyway with a dead end.
As he backed up to the wall, the civilians continued advancing. He desperately looked around, but it was futile. He had thought he had seen a masked man standing on the building but he was gone.
As the civilians began tearing apart Naruto, cutting him, burning him, and torturing him in general, a Shinobi called out, "What the hell is this!? You start torturing this demon spawn without me!? Let me have a go at him!" the unknown shinobi laughed.
Naruto's possible only ray of hope had just turned on him, promising him more pain than he had ever felt.
"Katon: Gokakyu no Jutsu!" The unidentified ninja screamed.
It all became too much for Naruto, and has the mob continued inflicting pain on him he passed out.

Naruto woke up in what looked like a dark and wet sewer. He could hear the dripping of unclean water all around him. Something further into the unknown darkness seemed to be calling him, for a second he could have sworn that he had heard something saying 'kit…' in a barely audible tone.
Naruto, being the curious 6 year old that he was, decided that he had to know what it was.
After what seemed like half an hour of walking, he came upon a locked door with the kanji for 'Seal' on it. Looking closer, it appeared to be a cage but for what it was, he couldn't see.
Trying to listen as closely as he could he could hear a sobbing from a bit deeper into the cage, into what looked like an abyss of darkness.
"Hello? Are you okay in there?" Naruto called out, hoping that they wouldn't be in pain, as he knew how much it could hurt.
"Is that you Naruto-Kun?" A feminine voice called out, tinged in sadness.
"Who's there!?" Naruto called out, afraid that the person would harm him like everyone else did apart from the Old Man with the awesome looking hat.
"Oh Naruto-Kun, I'm so, so, sorry!" The voice called out, "It's because of me that you're treated like this! If I hadn't been placed under a Genjustsu you wouldn't have been terrorised all of your life and you would still have a family!" The voice said as it resumed sobbing again.
"Can you please show me who you are? I don't understand what's happening!" Naruto called out, still frightened of his environment, and maybe the person who seemed to be hiding in front of him.
"Very well Naruto-Kun, but before I show myself you must promise not to attack me." The voice said as she began walking towards what was clearly visible at the front of the cage.
"I would never hurt somebody who has done nothing wrong!" Naruto half smiled, half frowned.
As the figure stepped into the light Naruto gazed upon the beautiful women he had just met, she had fiery red hair, reaching down as far as her waste, her eyes were a deep, vibrant red, and her figure was what women would kill for to attain.
"I know, I just had to be sure." The voice called out again. "Very well," The figure said stepping forward, "I am the Kyuubi no Kitsune, and I so sorry for what I have done to you." The kyuubi said, crying that last part out.
"But everyone told me that you're dead!" Naruto exclaimed, " But then if you're not dead, that means I'm a demon, aren't I? All of the mobs were right!" Naruto cried out.
"NO! Kit, you're no less a demon than a baby human," The Kyuubi exclaimed, "The people chasing you are more demon than you will ever be… maybe…"The Kyuubi said, muttering the last part.
"But that doesn't explain why you're here, or why i'm here actually!" Naruto said, genuinely curious as to what was going on.
"Kit, first things first, I'm going to tell you about what happened six years ago, on the night I attacked Konoha."The Kyuubi said as Naruto stiffened up.
"You mean the day I was born?" Naruto queried.
"Yes kit, I will explain exactly what happened that day, give or take a few minor details." The Kyuubi said to Naruto, "But from now on you must call me by my real name, Akako."
"Okay than… Akako-Chan!" Naruto smiled.
"Don't make say 'chan' kit!" Akako said, blushing at his remark.
"Only if you don't call me 'Kit'." Naruto smirked
"You win this round… kit" Akako laughed out
"Can you tell me the story now, pretty please? Naruto said with a puppy dog look.
"Fine kit, but be prepared…"Akako said
~Ten minute Time Skip no Jutsu~

"I see…" Naruto said trying to sum up what happened inside his head.
"So basically, your children were attacked by Uchiha Madara, causing you to go on a rampage, and while you were almost completely exhausted, he took control of you using his Mangekyou Sharingan, making you go berserk on Konoha, killing my parents in the process and causing the Yondaime Hokage to seal you inside me, at the cost of his own life." Naruto said, piecing together the information he had been given.
"Basically, Yeah." Akako said nodding along as Naruto spoke
"Well… ok." Naruto spoke, hesitating for a second "Thank you for telling me this, it means a lot to me."
Akako blinked as he seemed to just shrug off the information she had just told him.
"However," Naruto said, his voice growing cold for a six year old, "This does not mean that I have forgiven you, Akako… Chan."
Akako mentally sighed in relief that he had decided to continue calling her 'chan' and she decided to ask him something that she hadn't planned on doing for another ten years.
"Naruto-Kun, if you will…" Akako said, trying to think how to word this right, "If you will let me, would you accept a gift from me?"
"A gift…" Naruto said, looking up to her, "I've never had a gift before." He muttered before turning to face her. "Ok, I'll accept it." He smile at the last part.
Akako's face flooded with relief, "Naruto-kun, the first gift I want to give you, is an offer for training, and the second, is a bit more complicated."
"Really!? I always ask Jiji to train me, but he always says that it would be showing more genorosity to a single person! But what about the second gift?"
"Well, like I said, the second gift is a little bit more complicated, it is simply a mask. It is made of a special material that will cloak you're natural chakra and any chakra you gain through any means. Such as mine. Currently, it is just blank, but i can make it look however you like later on during the training if you wish."
"Yeah! That sounds awesome!" Naruto exclaimed "But when do we start training?"
Akako giggled at the boy's enthusiasm for doing something most children his age wouldn't be thinking about for another two or three years, but then she remembered, that Naruto, wans't really a normal boy.
"We can start training tommorow. For now, I will just explain what will be happening."
"Alright then, but i want to know one thing before we even talk about that," Naruto said, his face donning a serious look, "Where are we?"
"That actually partially has to do with how we are training to tell you the truth," Akako replied, "We are currently in your mindscape."
"You mean that we're in MY head? That's so cool!" Naruto shouted like the six year old he was.
"Now about your training, inside your mindscape we can compress it so that every hour spent in here, equals about a minute in the outside world."
"That means I'll have trained for way longer than anyone else my age!" Naruto smiled.
"Yes kit, but for now, you have to wake up, your in hospital and the Hokage seems to be beside you from what i can tell of the chakra thats in the room."
"When will I see you again Akako-Chan?" Naruto said looking visibly sadened.
"Kit, when you go to sleep tonight, I will pay you a vist and we can discuss what you will learn, but now it's time to wake up."
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxX
Naruto woke up with an audible gasp.
"Naruto-Kun! Is everything alright?" The aging Hokage asked with genuine concern for the young boy.
"Kit, don't tell him about me, don't even show him that your hearing this, and before you asked, yes I am speaking to you telepathically, considering we technically share the same body."
After Naruto was answering and seemed to be waging a war within his mind, Hiruzen took it upon himself to shake the boy out of his thoughts.
"Naruto-Kun, can you hear me?"
"Yes Jiji, I can hear you fine, whats up?" Naruto said, smiling at the only nice person in Konoha to his knowledge.
"Nothing much Naruto-kun, but first i must ask, are you okay? You took quite a beating yesterday."
"Don't worry about me Jijj," Naruto replied " I just want to go home, away from all of the hate."
The Hokage cringed, thinking about how Naruto's life must have been.
"Okay then, if you're sure you're alright, but I will be making sure that you're protected more from now on." Hiruzen exclaimed
"Don't worry about it Jiji, what good is protection, if the protection just watches you get beaten to within an inch of your life." Naruto said, almost crying out the last part.
"I know Naruto-Kun, and I'm trying my hardest, but it doesn't seem to be helping at all does it." The Old Man said, "I'll take me leave now Naruto-Kun, be sure to visit." He said, brightening up.
"And the same to you Jiji!" Naruto smiled

It had been seven years since that fatal encounter, and Naruto had only grown stronger, his mask, was completely black, it didn't appear to have any eye holes at all, but that was just looks, on this inside it had two eye holes, just like an ANBU mask, however, at the top of the mask was the Konoha symbol, it was engraved into the mask and was the only colour other than black on the mask, the colour of it, was white.
At night, ever since he had gotten the mask and some orders form Akako, he had gone around looking through all of the bins in Konoha, until it was about midnight, than he would return home, to get some training in with Akako whilst his body rested. Even though in the beginning Naruto was confuse as to how his body would gain the strength that he was in his mind, Akako assured him that she would take care of it while he was training/sleeping.
For all of his life he had been called a Demon, he was beaten by the majority of Konoha, and if he wanted to, he could name each and every person who had wronged him in some way, not that it would matter as the council would push for them to have no punishment even if it was illegal.
He had to act like he was still a weak little nobody, or the civilians would make his life unbearable, even for him. His plan was to lie low until the graduation exams, and than go all out on the actual day, which happened to be tommorow.
Turning into a flight of stairs he began to climb up to his apartment, most of the memories tonight had brought up had disgusted him. He only had a few hours before he had to get to the academy so he decided to rest. But before he did that, he had pressing matters to attend to; all of the stuff he had found in the rubbish bins of Konoha frankly astounded him! There were Jutsu scrolls, slightly scratched kunai and even a few books on sealing! He stashed them away in a room he had hollowed out beneath his apartment. Officially, it was just dirt and stone beneath him, but he had spent 2 months hollowing it out, making it fit for a hiding place, and he kept all of his valuables in there.
As he entered the room, he took a moment to look in awe at what he had managed to gather in the space of just a few years! He had learnt hundreds of techniques and almost 14 styles of Taijutsu! Some of the stuff was even originally owned by major clans of Konoha, 4 years ago, when Itachi massacred the Uchiha clan, he had taken it upon himself to take all of the scrolls that wouldn't be 'needed' by the Uchiha's anymore. That night alone had supplied his training for almost 4 months. (A/N* Remember, he's been training in his mind with Akako, so he would have spent years learning and mastering all of those Justus and clan fighting styles!)
One of the most useful things he had found was a scroll on sealing written by someone called Jiraiya of the Sannin. That man was essentially Naruto's idol for his work on sealing until he had discovered what his other writing proffesion was, Icha Icha Paradise. Naruto loathed perverts. Enough said, after that he had turned back to Jiraiya's star pupil, Minato Namikaze, the Yondaime Hokage. (Who thankfully wasn't a pervert... publically at least.)
Ever since he had been kicked out of the orphanage, he had known exactly what he needed to do; he had to become a Shinobi. When he was younger he had dreamed about being a ninja, just because he would be able to use cool jutsu's and set things on fire. But now, he wanted to become one, not to protect the village, but to protect himself.
You see, whilst Naruto was still a civilian, the civilian council had the majority of the control on his life, essentially, making it as miserable as possible. To protect himself, he had donned a mask of idiocy, to make the civilian bastards think that he was a stupid child whose only dream was to become Hokage.
His entire class believed him to be an idiot, who barely passed the tests, averaging about 54% on all of them. His Taijutsu was terrible, he couldn't defeat most civilians. However, tomorrow, he would drop his mask of idiocy and show them who he was, the true Naruto Uzumaki!
But that was tommorow, today, he had to finish packing away his findings and get ready for his last day as a civilian ever. Naruto planned to die on the battlefield, if that was possible for someone like him anyway. After all of those years of training (Probably hundreds but i'm to lazy to work it out :) Maybe you could do it for me!) he was probably on par with a shinobi like Hatake Kakashi, not that he particularly liked the man, he was just saying.
Anyway, time to train!

Hey guys! I got bored at school and decided to write this! This is just a teaser and I want to see if anybody would read this before I post the next chapter! I hope to make it epic length and I will probably be bashing characters like Kakashi, Sasuke and Sakura, it will be slightly based of fanfic's like One Man Team, by Ackdam. The kyuubi will most likely be good and there will be NO lemons! If you want it can be a Harem, I like Hinata as well and Fem-Kyuu if people like or review enough, but no more than 3 people! It is likely he has met the kyuubi but I'm waiting for my Beta reader's approval, which I just got…. -.- she's crazy tysomuchjademahbaytareeder! By the way, if you see any mistakes i have made, please tell me about them so that I can rectify them ASAP! Bai!
