Chapter 1: The change to shinobi
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto
"Out, get out of my shop you demon!"
Uzumaki Naruto ran out of the shop and thru the ally in a hasty escape. The 4-year-old did not understand it. They always treated him like trash, like he was never meant to exist. The people hated him and he did not even know why. The would look at him like he was a monster and talk about him behind his back. They did every thing to hinder him like beat him to near death, only sell him the bad stuff at triple the price if they sell to him at all.
The orphanage had kicked him out almost a year ago and since then he had been living on the streets living off of the trash in the trashcans and plants. Berries and animals he could catch in the woods. He basically lived in the woods now. He had to teach himself how to read and talk just by listening an looking as other people in the street.
It was only a day ago that the old man, hokage, gave him an old run down apartment to call home.
Naruto was now at one of the training fields he usually went to find some kunai, that was left behind, he used for hunting to get a few more for his collection. As he was picking up a stray kunai, he was startled when someone talked right behind him.
"well well, look at what we have here ." Naruto turned to see two chunin ninja staring at him with a snarl . Naruto turned and ran for the forest only to bump into one of the chunin that appeared in front of him out of nowhere. He turned to go the other direction only to run strait into a waiting fist of the other ninja.
As the darkness took him, the last thing he heard was the to ninjas talking. "So, what should we do with him?" "there is a river near here, lets dump him in there. The tides will do the rest of the job."
The ninja took him too the river that was about 1 kilo from their position. They trough him into the river and watched as it carried him away with a smile on their face. They have finely gotten rid of the demon. They went back to the village to celebrate.
4 hours later
Naruto woke up with a pain in his jaw and a killer headache. As he sat up, he looked to be in some sort of hidden cave. The only source of light was of a halfway open door made of stone.
He decided to follow the light, to he went trough the door hoping for a way out. He was in no such luck. It was a big room lit with old torches on the wall, and a big stone table on in the middle of the room.
He went to the table, that was barley low enough for him to see on top of. What he saw was a big book with the word diary on it. It was covered in dust and looked very old. He stood on his toes and dragged the book of the table and onto the ground where he sat down next to it and opened it up and began to reed what was written in it.
" To the one who opened this, they call me Christmas and I was one of the worlds best mercenary's of all time. I was in a group that took missions for money, no matter what the danger. We went everywhere and lived the life of killers. We did whatever was needed to get the job done. " Naruto read fascinated by what was written." I was more of an assassin, I killed from the dark with knives and enjoyed the silence of killing. You would not hear or see me until you were already dead."
Naruto kept reading the man named Christmas's life and missions with big eyes trying to take in everything he read.
"In this book is my way of life and how to get the skills that I had and maybe even better than mine. This book has exercises and diets for you to follow and I promise you that you wil be one of the best assassins known to man."
To say Naruto was exited was like saying Kakashi was only a bit of a pervert. He took the book and went to look for a way out of this cave and back to the training ground. It took hime a while but he found out he was in a hidden under water cavern. As Naruto made his way back to the training ground he made sure to memorise the way back to the cavern that he would be using for a training place later in time.
2 hours later: training ground.
Naruto looked if it was clear before he went to sit down under a tree to read the book a bit more. As he read, a note at the bottom of the page caught his attention. "when I was good enough, I discovered that through my training I had gotten a doujutsu. When it was activated, it would slow time down a bit and it would help me to see more accurately and a lot further . At the right corner of this page there is a seal that will mix my DNA with yours and will be able to give you this bloodline, but be warned it will not only be as good as you make it trough practise. All you have to do is cut the palm of your hand and place it on the seal and it will be done."
Naruto cut his palm with one of his hidden kunai and placed it on the seal. He was expecting a world of pain but was pleasantly surprised wen only his eyes hurt for a few minutes. When it stoped hurting, he tucked the book under his jacket and made his way home.
Apartment.
When he made it to his apartment, he hid the book under his bed in a hole under a floorboard. He got into his bed and thought of everything that happened today. As he went to sleep, he made a promes that from today he wil never be weak again and that he would train every day if he had to.
In the back of his mind two big red eyes closed with his, the only sound that was heard was the word "interesting" in a deep, angry sounding voice with a hint of amusement in it.
