Roughly thirteen years ago the village of Konoha was attacked by the nine tailed demon fox Kyuubi.

When a tail was swung, it would destroy a mountain and cause tsunamis.

Unable to defeat him, the 4th Hokage, Namikaze Minato, sealed the demon into his and his wife, Uzumaki Kushina's, newborn son, sacrificing his own life to do so.

Uzumaki Naruto was their sons name, he wished for their son to be viewed as a hero, keeping the village safe by keeping the Kyuubi at bay, but unfortunately, things seldom work out the way we plan. Harboring hatred for Naruto, the village believed that he was the demon in disguise.

Because of their hatred, they shunned Naruto, leaving him to have a rundown apartment, a hideous orange jumpsuit and only being able to eat ramen for most of his life.

Now if you ask people who Uzumaki Naruto is, most will tell you he is a demon, but certain others would tell you that, he is a loud, hyperactive, boy, who constantly searches for approval and recognition.

His dream is to become Hokage, the acknowledged leader and strongest ninja in the village.

But if you ask the Sandaime Hokage, and two certain ANBU members, they will tell you the truth.

Namikaze-Uzumaki Naruto, was one of three young and deadly kids, each a genius in their own right, each part of one ANBU team, and each one just as loyal as the other when it comes to the village.

The first one, Uchiha Itachi, many know the name, even more fear it, he was the weasel ANBU, gifted with the sharingan, he can copy any jutsu he sees, not that he needs to, he specializes in Genjutsu and Taijutsu.

At the age of thirteen, Itachi "betrayed" the village, killing his entire clan, minus his brother, in the process.

Because of this, he is in the bingo book as an S-ranked Missing-Nin, with a flee on site order for anyone below Jonin. You can recognize him by his black hair, and red sharingan eye, under the eyes he has to lines, both making him look older then he is.

The second one, Tatsu Tenshi, age twelve, currently the only one still in ANBU, he is the dragon ANBU, he specializes in Ninjutsu and Kenjutsu, he is known as the Bloody Dragon, as the name states, he summons dragons, he has his mothers clan to thank for that, the Tatsu clan was once a feared and almost unbeatable clan in Whirlpool country. Something happened and most of them ended up dead, except for Tenshi's mother, Tatsu Nami the only parent he knows of. He is also in the bingo book, A-ranked Ninja of Konoha, also with a flee on site order because of what happened in Rain country, where it was he earned his title of Bloody Dragon, he is know by his blood red hair, and blood red eyes.

Namikaze-Uzumaki Naruto, the last one, age thirteen and currently in the academy, The ex-Fox ANBU member, he specializes in Ninjutsu and Taijutsu, also in the bingo book, A-ranked Ninja of Konoha, under the name Kazama Arashi, as to not draw attention from other Ninja. After the massacre of the Uchiha clan, Naruto was given a mission to keep an eye on Itachi's little brother, Sasuke, so under the guise of a "Dobe" Naruto entered the academy, making sure not to draw to much attention to what his motives were.

Now that you know of the past, it's time to begin our story, where will the road lead Namikaze-Uzumaki Naruto, no one is for certain, but one thing is for sure, it's going to be one hell of a ride.

A/N: So this is the prologue of the new story, title shall be the same, but the plot is different, as you can tell

I'm hoping to get at least five chapters done, and then I will post more, after posting I will write a new chapter, I probably won't post again till the new one gets finished, that way I always have something to post incase of writers block. I hope you will enjoy the re-write, especially since a lot of stuff has changed, but personally I think it changed for the better. I also hope you liked my use of the name a lot of people thought was the 4th's real name. If you did, I'm glad. Until next time.
