This is my first story. At first I was going to put up a role-play, but was inspired for some reason. I don't know how, but I really want to let my creative side show. Please leave me reviews and tell me what I could do to make it better.

Disclaimer:] = I don't own Naruto

I awoke in the dark. Just silence here to comfort me. I just laid there on ground unable to move. My body weak and tense from the beatings. It's not easy when the villagers hate you. How is my fault, I don't understand how I could be a nuisance when I don't do anything. I try to help them, but I guess I scare them instead. I pulled my body upright leaning on my arms with my legs stretched out in front of me resting a little while. I pulled myself into a stance grabbing on to the nearest object.

As I stumbled on my way home I passed the bar. Not a every good idea on my part. It seemed that people that were in there hadn't notices my presence. I scurried away from as fast my legs would take. Only I didn't go along without being seen.

"Hey! It's that brat! Come on!" The man made a gesture for everyone who wanted to come. I ran not caring about the pain in my legs or wheeze that came out of my chest. I had to get out of this mess fast. I ran into a dark alley and climbed up building with loose bricks. This was the only easy and fast way for me to escape and only way the villagers let me get away without coming to get me. I walked across the roof tops with some problems, but I had to force myself until I knew that I was absolutely safe. I sat on my abandoned building. Letting myself rest and relax.

I let my mind wonder which led me to think for a six year old I'm much more mature for my age. Watching the other kids they seem like little babies. I always wanted to join them in their games seeing how we would all enter the academy I thought it would be smart to make friends. They didn't think it was good idea, but at least they let me near them without any complaining or wanting me dead. That's when I heard running of the some. Most like a shinobi going out on a mission. I looked toward the sky. My legs hanging over the edge and my hands resting in lap the night sky was beautiful. I wonder why people won't just give me a chance.

Then the footsteps got closer and slowed down. I could feel someone behind me. I turned around and saw someone unfamiliar to me. I stared at him and he stared back at me.

"My name is Uzumaki Naruto. What is your name?" I asked the curiosity getting the best of me. He didn't answer me. Wasn't it common courtesy to state your own name before asking? Does he hate me like all the others? I thought. I guess he saw me upset and answered.

"Uchiha Itachi." He said and looked at me closer.

"Are you on a mission alone?" I asked which I was never really open to someone new like this, but then again it means a chance. It seemed as if he was in hurry, but he nodded his head then looked at me again.

"Who did this to you? If you don't mind me asking you?" Itachi asked. I shrugged.

"The villagers. They don't like me for some unseen reason." He nodded at this and took it into consideration. I sighed and turned back around waiting for him to leave, but he didn't.

"I don't know you that well Naruto, but would you like to come with me and train to be a ninja? I think it would come in handy for you don't you think?" He was asking me question I had no idea how to answer. Well, one thing it would be nice to start training, but I would be doing that soon in the academy. Second it really would come in handy. If I stay here the villagers will keep hurting me until I'm able to do something about it. If I go I won't get hurt and I'll be with someone who showed me the most kindness in my life.

I stood up and nodded. I don't know why he invited me, but I'm relieved to get out of a place where I'm hated. I hoped on his back and away we went.

Okay so how was it? I know it's kind of short, but I didn't have much time. Remember this is my first story. I mean I've written tons of stories, but I've never posted them up before. Anyways I hope you like it. :D
