Me: YAY! Hello people of Fan-fiction! It's me Winterangel44 again and I'm here to write this amazing story.
Itachi: You haven't even started it yet. How will they know if it's 'amazing'?
Me: Because of my previous work!
Minato: What does your previous work have to do with any of this?
Sasori: Can we stop talking. I hate to keep people waiting.
Itachi: Hn.
Me: Because I love you guys so much I'll start typing...after the disclaimer.
Disclaimer- I do not own Naru-chan. If I did he'd already be with Hina-chan.

"Demon!"
A small boy with luminous blue eyes ran down the dirt road of his village. Nasty, and dirty words were hissed at him everywhere he ran. 'Why do these people call me demon?' the small boy thought, 'Have I done something wrong?' He ran down an alleyway just to see a wall, cornering him. The villagers quickly cornered him. They were laughing, practically drowning in their glee at being able to capture him. They shouted to the heavens for Kami-sama to hear what they were going to do to the 'demon-child'. Thinking that when they died they we're going to be welcomed in the heavenly home of Kami and sing praises with all the tenshi (angels) that lived with him.
The crowd quickly raise their weapons or grabbed rocks or any harmful item that they could use and quickly raised it against the boy.
"Happy Birthday," the boy muttered before the rocks pelted him.

A strange girl with lavender-white eyes ran into a tall forest. She really wanted to disappear. She wished for death or for someone to come and help her. People who would be able to understand her and her pain. However, if her father's assumptions were correct, she would probably mess up a friendly relationship like that. She couldn't do anything right.
Even her own flesh and blood father thought so. Hell, he even told her that. She wasn't even competent. She simply was a failure. She fell to her knees in sadness.
"Once a failure, always a failure," she muttered to herself. And so, the small girl, got up and walked as fast as she dared away from the world of sadness and disappoint.
The one world that was simply holding her back.

A boy with charcoal black eyes could only stare at the ground.
His brother...his family...His older brother. His aniki (older brother), the one he wanted to be like so much. Had just destroyed a whole clan of people. His family to be exact.
But, why? Why did he kill them? Why did he only leave him alive?
To test my abilities...
That was his only answer. He killed his own clan destroyed everything he loved and cherished just so he could gauge his abilities! His body burned with slight shock and fear. He couldn't stay. What if he returned to kill him? No, he wouldn't want that.
So with his charcoal eyes aimed only start in front of him. He ran.
Because the Hound of Hell had already captured his scent.
†
The boy with the blue eyes jogged lightly to the forest that slept on the outside of the village. He didn't want to wake the villagers. He did not desire to be stoned and/or brutally beaten. It nighttime and the moon hung in the sky bringing a cool breeze and thousands of stars with it.
He was spared today, because some shinobi, an ANBU, with glowing red eyes helped and saved him. He was obviously an Uchiha from the symbol on his back was any indication. The boy was extremely grateful for the Uchiha's help, but he still couldn't stay. What would become of him if the Uchiha went on a mission? The same exact thing that becomes of him whenever the villagers decided he needed to learn his place. The slums. He would be found in the slums stealing food and hiding from large dogs that thought he was trespassing in their territory. The boy knew that shinobi wouldn't always be there to protect him. Hell, some, no...most shinobi desired his death more than the villagers did. So, he couldn't stay. The boy felt little no regret in the act of leaving the accursed village. He had no one to care for him except Iruka-sensei and the Old Man. Even the girl he supposedly 'loved' (a.k.a. Sakura A/N: NARUSAKU SUCKS! HATE YOU SAKURA!) didn't care for him that much, only the Uchiha. Sasuke was his name.
A small sigh poured out of his lips as he jogged into the forest and away from a village that tired to kill him for something he had no control over.
†
The petite girl walked in the forest. Her small footsteps went unheard as she walked away from the large compound where her family lay asleep and blissfully unaware of her leaving.
Small tears of sadness filled her eyes, but they did not dare come out. It wasn't that hard to escape the compound that most people thought she called 'home'. That place could never be called a 'home'. That place was specially made to destroy and bully into the image of what they want you to become. The cold glares, and confident posture was part of it. Emotions were long gone and considered weak.
The petite girl had no regrets, but one. She would have to leave her baby sister behind.
To leave her little sister behind meant leaving her sister prey to those horrible people called their family. The girl didn't want to leave her, but she couldn't take care of her all by herself. She sat down leaning next to a tree and sighed lightly. She really didn't need this. She was only a child. As she brooded over her blood relatives, a small rustle in the bushes was heard and a small pure white wolf came out.
The small wolf pup stumbled out of the brush and bushes and the sight amazed Hinata. At that exact moment the moon hit the wolf's fur and hit shimmer. The wolf was pure white, but when the moon light hit the fur it shimmered and shone and looked ethereal. The fur looked sliver just to put it simply. The wolf opened it's eyes and surprisingly. They were a deep majestic purple. A strange color, but who was she to judge.
As soon as the wolf saw her it quickly ran over to her and made it's new home in the girl's lap. It nuzzled her stomach and gave a small sigh, if wolves can sigh, of contentment. The girl could only giggle.
"Well, since you seem to like me...I'll call you...Yuki," she said in a voice softer than feathers. Yuki gave a yip of agreement. 'Well, I think I'm far enough from the compound,' she thought as the mothering hands of sleep griped her. And as she slept she dreamed.
She could easily remember her dream clearly and if you were to ask her what it was about she would easily tell you it was about freedom.

The blue eyed boy smiled as he and a small orange fox walked through the shrub and brush. He was glad that he had a companion. It made leaving feel a little less lonely. A little. The boy still felt that aching pain when thinking about all that he was leaving. I wasn't much, but it still made him feel a little sad.
"Come on, Shi," he said, to the small fox that accompanied him. They hopped over another shrub and a large tree root that protruded from the ground, when he saw a flash of something white. The forest was just black or a deep forest green that could past as black due to the lighting of the room. She was, in Naruto's opinion, cuter than Sakura. He knew that she was in his class at the Academy, but he only could get glimpses of her. She wore a light white and lavender kimono. She had short indigo hair, pale skin, and a small white wolf cub sitting on her lap.
'Are they okay?' the boy wondered faintly. He and Shi inched closer and closer to the girl and her cub, stopping every couple of seconds to see if they would awake. As Shi and the boy got closer to the girl couldn't help, but have a feeling of awe wash over him. The girl was very beautiful. He pale seemed to glow in the moon light. She had soft looking, full lips, and Naruto could barely suppress the urge to lung at her and kiss her. She looked so―
'No!' he shouted in his head, 'You are not like that. You barely even know this girl!' Naruto then noticed that he was close enough to touch her. He reach out his hand and gently poked her.
"Hey? You awake? Hello?" he whispered to her lightly. He put his hand on her cheek and marveled at the soft feel of her skin and the peaceful look on her face. 'She's really pretty,' he thought as a light blush bloomed across his face, just as the young girl's eye's shot open.
The boy was once again caught up in the array of her cute look as she gazed at him was mesmerizing white-lavender eyes. Her wolf, now awake, huffed lightly and walked over to Shi and nipped at his heels.
"W-w-who are y-you?" the girl asked, her voice shaking like a flower in a thunderstorm.
"I'm Naruto," he stated boldly. A kind, almost adoring smile graced his lips as he gazed at her. A small blush appeared on her cheeks as she looked at him. "Who are you?" The small girl looked down her bangs shadowing her beautiful moon like eyes.
"I'm Hinata Hyuuga," she said as Naruto's eyes widened. This was Hinata Hyuuga? The so called Princess of Konoha? Naruto had heard of the girl because whenever he walked down the street he would heard people whisper and gossip like old women when the Hyuuga clan head would walk down the street with his small daughter. If she was the highly esteemed princess of Konoha why was she outside sleeping with no one to protect her. He wasn't sure how clans worked, but didn't important people always have people around them to protect them?
Naruto gently sat himself down next to Hinata who was watching Yuki and Shi play. A sigh bubbled past her lips as Naruto gave a sigh of his own.
†
The boy with the charcoal eyes was running. He was rushing to get away from the Uchiha clan compound. It was odd for him. He was running as fast as he could, trying to get away from the blood bath that use to be his home. A small black blur accompanied him as he ran. He didn't know what it was, but he just kept on running ignoring the blur. He quickly assumed that it was his older brother and ran fatser.
The black blur followed him. Saying nothing. Later on he decided to take a look at the blur and noticed something that he didn't notice before. The blur was on fours and was smaller than him. It was obvious that his company was clearly an animal. He decided that an animal companion was better than nothing and kept running.

"Ne, Hinata? If you're part of the Hyuuga clan, why aren't you at home? You know the Hyuuga compound," Naruto asked hesitantly. Hinata suddenly curled up into fetal position, resting her head on her knees. Tears pooled in her eyes at the thought of her little unhappy life she had there. Her mother, being brutally murdered by Kumo shinobi. Her beloved uncle, Hizashi, dying for her father. Neji, throwing spite words at her blaming her for all the misfortune in his life. And lastly, her father, after her mother's death, quickly disregarding her as incompetent, weak, and spineless. In general, she remembered everything. She had to witness the brutality of her clan and speak nothing of it; act as if it wasn't real or wasn't happening. Like it was normal.
Naruto gazed at her worriedly. She looked as if she was going to burst into tears at any given moment. Did something happen that caused her to leave? Was it really that bad? Naruto quickly pulled her into his chest and patted her back in a soothing manner.
"It's okay. It's okay. Everything's gonna be alright," he murmured softly into her ear. Hinata then decided that crying was okay at this moment was fine and let the tears flow freely. She cried shamelessly into Naruto's chest. After her little moment Hinata looked up at Naruto with her face flushed, which Naruto deemed at that moment, super cute.
"I-I'm sorry, Naruto. I didn't mean to―"
"It's fine. You had to let it out. Since that's over, how about we tell each other about our lives. I'll tell you mine and you tell me your's," Naruto suggested lightly, "I'll start."
And so with Hinata listening intently, Naruto told her about the beatings, the rotten food, and how he couldn't play with the regular children. All of these tales brought tears to the very eyes that mesmerized and charmed Naruto. When he saw the streams of tears running down her cheeks it surprised him at he didn't know how to react. 'Was it something I said,' Naruto thought.
"Ne, Hinata, why are you crying? Did I say something that offended you or―" Naruto asked trying to stop the tears.
"No, I'm just sad. You had to such so much with no one helping you. I feel that what I'm upset over is nothing compared to you. So, I want to be your friend...W-well, only if you want to," she said, blushing shyly at the end. As Naruto chuckled and smiled. He may have just met her, but Hinata was officially his best friend and he was sort of glad she was his first.
A rustle was heard from the bushes as a boy with charcoal black eyes and a black tiger with red eyes stumbled into the area. The boy was panting as if ha had run a very far distance to get here and seemed scared of something that seemed to be long gone. Naruto quickly stood in front of Hinata as if to protect her. The boy was easily reconsigned as Sasuke as soon as he started to speak.
"H-h-he...k-killed...everyo-o-one," Sasuke stuttered.
"Who?" Naruto asked cautiously.
"I-I-I-Itachi." The children eyebrows lifted in surprise. His older brother the pride of the Uchiha clan killed his own family? This was a surprise.
"What?" Hinata asked.
"He killed everyone. Every single Uchiha. Dead," his voice soft and shaking like a leaf. 'We're going no where with this. We need to get him to clam down,' Hinata thought.
"Sasuke, we need you to calm down―"
"HOW CAN I CALM DOWN WHEN MY BROTHER JUST KILLED MY WHOLE CLAN!" Sasuke cried.
"Maybe if you SHUT UP we can help you," Naruto shouted at him. The only sound heard was the sounds of Yuki, Shi, and Sasuke's tiger's (A/N: I do NOT feel like naming the tiger right now) mewing and puny roars.
"Well, now that you're calm, how about we all share our stories and come up with some solutions," Hinata suggested. Naruto and Sasuke nodded and the three sat down forming a small triangle and shared their lives with one another. At the end of the last story everyone sat in a tense silence as they mused over their new found friends' stories and their own lives.
"So we all have live that suck or are beginning to suck," Naruto mused.
"I think that about sums it up," Sasuke said.
"So, what're we going to do about it? I mean sitting here doing nothing isn't going to help us much is it," Hinata said. She had a point sitting here feeling bad for themselves and each other wasn't going to help.
All of them simply thought of what them wanted and said it out loud.
"I want to change the Hyuuga clan."
"I want to kill my brother Itachi." (A/N: Me: NOOO! Not MY Ita-kun! Itachi; You write the story change it.)
"I..." Naruto had to think a little harder about this. He didn't want to become Hokage like he boasted about. It was obvious that the villager would never respect him even if he was Hokage. He wanted to make a place where everyone was respected and he wasn't an outcast; where no one would be an outcast.
"I...I want to..create a village," he said with a proud grin. A small smile graced his friends' faces (well in Sasuke's case it was a smirk).
"Well if we're going to gain these things we're going to need some power," Sasuke said.
"Yes, and how do you expect us to do that?" Naruto countered. A long silence followed as they thought of ways to gain power. Staying in Konoha and being subject to horrible memories or physical or emotional torture was out of the question. Suddenly Sasuke jumped up.
"I've got an idea!" he exclaimed.
"Yeah, well share it," Naruto said still not coming up with anything.
"Travel. We could always travel. We could always jump from village to village and learn their techniques until we're old enough to become genin," Sasuke explained.
"Yeah, but we have to be registered shinobi in order to learn more powerful jutsu," Hinata piped up.
"I thought of that and the only way to do that is to come back and become genins here."
"Well the plan seems reasonable...let's do it," Hinata said. Naruto nodded in agreement and walked forward.
"So then, we'll help each other achieve our dreams until the day we die," Naruto said. Hinata and Sasuke smiled and nodded. "Well, than let's get going."
And so, with the moon and the star as their witnesses the Demon, the Princess, and the Avenger set off to achieve their dreams.
With the moon full and the stars alined
