Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto. If I did, Naruto wouldn't be so weak.
I just want to say that I hate the name 'Kazama.' So I guess I'll have to use 'Namikaze.' However, I hate the name 'Minato' so I'll be using Arashi. After all, Wave Wind Storm sounds cooler than Wave Wind Harbor eh? And this makes Naruto, Wave Wind Maelstorm.
I also do not like random Japanese words thrown into an English sentence. You will rare see me do that.
In any case, I'm sure some of you have heard of the manga 'Fairy Tail.' This fanfic is like Fairy Tail. Not in the plot or idea, but in the origin. Fairy Tail was suppose to be a mix of the greatest mangas. My manga is what's to be a mix of some of the great (To me) fanfic authors, mangas, and fanfics and some other sources. I will name a couple.
Flame of Recca
KaizukiKira
Legacy of the Maelstorm: Yamikitsune
Prince of Tennis

The Beginning of a Storm
A boy walks down the street of a village. This boy has blond spiky hair that shoots out in every direction. The boy is wearing black sweatpants. He also has on a black T-Shirt which is covered by a jacket. The jacket was dark blue and had a black strip going down the sleeves. He was no older than 12.
He hears the villagers whispering the usual.
'Damn. It's the frickin' demon'
'Why won't he just die?'
'Let's hit his place again tonight'
The blond hears all of these whispers. His mind was thinking a couple things.
'…Mofos. Despite a ninja taking something precious to me, you still aren't satisfied. It doesn't matter, that apartment is all completely rigged. The instant you leave, everything goes back to normal. My place is in the S Area of the 'Forest of Death.'
The blond smirked. This gave him the reaction he wanted. The villagers all snarled. However, the blond didn't see them snarl. He was blind. A white cloth covered his eyes. It acted like a headband, except instead of on his forehead, it was on his eyes. Losing his eyes wasn't that bad. He had received 4 things in return.
He had long grown out of his need for his eyes. Now, his sense of hearing was overdeveloped. He could hear the beating of one's heart. It told him their emotions. He could hear the friction of one's muscles. It told him their pose. He could hear the wind. It told him where everything was. And he had control over his ears. He could suppress his ear so he heard like a normal human. He could also heighten it to the point where he could hear running water a mile away and a leaf falling on the ground.
His sense of touch was advanced. He could feel people from the vibrations in the ground and determine their pose. He could feel where solids where from his touch alone. He could also control his sense of touch. It wasn't as reliable as his sense of hearing, but it was good enough for the mask he put on at the Academy. If he acted like his usual self, the teachers would hate him more. But acting like an idiot usually left the teachers not bother him. That and, if he showed his strength as a blind Academy Student, the council will definatly execute him…
He slowly walked to the Academy. He had a lot of time. He would make it there on time. Once he was a block away he heard shouting in the distance.
He sighed. 'Can't run away, it would bring up too much suspicion. Oh well, I'll just numb myself and let my bloodline fix me up' (A/N – Yes, it is his bloodline not Kyuubi)
After doing so, he pretended to be oblivious to what was going on. He let himself be dragged into the alley and let himself get beaten in everyway possible. His beating ranged from kitchen knife stabbing to trashcan smashing.
Naruto was left in the back of the alley to bleed to death. However, the minute the villagers left, he released the seal on his bloodline and slowly let his sense come back to him and let his cuts heal up.
While his cuts and bruises were still healing, he dragged himself to the Academy, while thinking about the period he lost his sight.

6 years ago…
A boy was walking slowly down the street. He was suppose to get home 2 hours ago. He saw a man walk up on the same side of the street. He crept to the other side to let him pass. Once they were no closer than 5 meters apart, a kunai dragged Naruto into an alley.
6 year old Uzumaki Naruto had no idea what was happening. His brain could not comprehend it. He then felt a sudden exhale of breath. No voluntary. He lifted his head up and started gasping for air. A hand clipped around his neck. His breathing was completely cut off.
Naruto looked into the eyes of his attacker. The last thing he saw was eyes. Red eyes. Then the kunai that imbedded itself into his shirt was ripped out and slashed across his closed eyes. He lost consciousness from shock there.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Some time later…
Naruto woke up, panting. "It was all a dream. Thank God…" Naruto looked around. "…It's pretty dark to be day… Heck, it's pretty dark to be night. Why?"
Naruto swung his head around trying to catch just something. He waved his hand in front of his eyes. Nothing. Not even an outline. "Oh God… Please don't let it be." Naruto reached up to his eyes and touched it. He felt smooth skin, then a narrow dent.
Naruto shouted and cried out. "No! It can't be like this! Where am I? How long has it been?" Naruto kept panicking.
He finally stopped after a time, only because he heard a noise. It sounded like… a gushing sound. He got up, stumbled a little, and ran full speed to the sound.
After running for close to 2 miles, Naruto finally stopped. The sound was now very loud. He bent down and touched where the sound was coming from. It felt… liquidy. Naruto quickly sucked up near 3 liters worth of water.
Naruto slowly walked over to a rock and sat down on it. He relaxed. Then, suddenly, he jumped up. How could he have heard the running water 2 miles away? How could he have known where the rock was?
After pondering some time, he finally realized it. His hearing capabilities increased manifold. It was even better than a dog's. His sense of touch was able to feel the vibrations in the ground. His feet worked somewhat like a bat's. That must be how he didn't bleed to death. His new gift also gave him accelerated healing because of his magnificent sense of touch.
Naruto sat back down on the rock. He thought hard. Sure his new gifts were great, but… he would miss his eyesight. No longer could he see the beauty of the skies. Nor the magnificence of wildlife. Nor the face of a beautiful maiden. For the second time after waking, he shed tears.
After crying his eyes dry, he realized something. He could see somehow. It wasn't from his normal view. In fact, he could see the top of his head. What was going on?
He bent his head up. He then saw his face. There was a scar over his eyes, dwarfing even Kopi Ninja Kakashi's scar. He thought about looking straight. Then, lo and behold, he saw the trees in front of him. He saw the river running. He then thought about looking higher. He then saw the gates of Konoha far in the distance, seemingly two hour's travel from running.
Naruto was amazed. Then, his sight disappeared and he dropped down on his knees, panting.
"Damn, that took a lot out of me. What was it? That thing the old man was talking about? Oh right! Chakra!" Naruto thought about getting some sleep, then returning to Konoha, guided by his newfound abilities. Then, he thought again.
"Wait, but if I return now, I'll be nearly defenseless. Old red-eyes could come after me again. No, I'll take this time to train in the wild. I'll return in 4 years to join the Academy. But as for now, I need to set up shelter. Watch out ninjas, Uzumaki Naruto is coming..."

2 years later…
Yelling. That's all that can be heard. It was most likely training. A blond boy, no older than 8 was practicing his taijutsu. A white cloth is over his eyes and he is wearing a standard black ninja shirt with black cargo pants. He eventually stopped. He grabbed a nearby towel and wiped off his sweat. He then walked back to a cave.
"Yo! Temari, Sandman! Weird-homo-guy-who-puts-make-up-on!" The blond boy's voice rang out through the cave. "You guys still here?"
"It's not make-up! It's battle paint!" A guy with purple 'battle paint' on, wearing a black jumpsuit walked out the dark. He bore two large scrolls on his back. "Stop calling me that ya damn fox."
Insert the song, 'Mr. Sandman' here
A red-headed boy walked out the darkness. He had the kanji for 'love' on his forehead. He wore a robe-ish sort of thing. He bore a huge gourd on his back. He also had an orb-ish thing with the kanji for 'Earth' on his waist. "You're back already Naruto?"
"Yeah Gaara, where's Temari?" The blond, Naruto, replied.
"Here!" A blonde girl ran out the darkness. She wore a battle kimono. She had a bracelet/ring on her arm. There was one little orb embedded into the part that surrounded the index finger. A great orb in the middle of a palm, and four more little orbs surrounding it. "What do you need me for?"
"We're moving again. I think we should head to mist country. I may be able to pick up another ally. Besides, there's word of a rebel. Perhaps we can find some more people willing to join our cause." Naruto said.
"Alright, whatever, we've been okay for 1 year, we should be able to do fine now. The missions are starting to get on my nerves though." Temari replied.
"Chill. We're starting to finish up. Soon I'll be going back to Konoha so the old man can stop worrying. Two years from now, I can go back to Konoha, but only to find some good candidates"
"But Naruto, what will you tell them? Won't it be odd that you return to Konoha so suddenly?"
"Hey, I'm blind, that's the best excuse."
"True…"
"Great, now let's move out!"
All the children in the cave disappeared.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
3 days later…
The four kids are seen walking through a forest. Naruto hears sounds of fighting. He gives a sign and they once again, disappear.
They came back into sight in a tree above a clearing. They saw a person with messy long hair. Naruto's first thought is. 'Boy? Or girl?' But then he saw the other man there. He holds a zanbatou. The man rushed at the boy and they got engaged into a fight. After some minutes, the kid finally got cut across the arm and loses balance.
At this point, Naruto dropped down to the ground and started clapping. "Amazing. You truly are a great fighter… What's your name?" At this, the blonde's companions can only jaw-dropped with one thing on their minds. 'Dumbass.'
"What's it to ya kid?" The man replied. "Who are you?"
"I am Uzumaki Naruto."
"Interesting… And what's your business?"
"I am here to find some men that can help me with a goal. I believe from the beat your heart is pumping at, you didn't manage to kill the Mizukage?"
Zabuza growled. "What does that have to do with me?"
"If you help me for about four-five years, I can guarantee the death of the Mizukage"
Zabuza laughed. "How could you? From the cloth on your eyes, you're probably blind. You can't do jackshit"
"Let's test that in a spar shall we?" Naruto replied, starting to shift into a fighting position.
"Don't cry when I kick your ass! And don't regret when I take your head!" Zabuza barked as he raised his hands to a tiger seal. Slowly a mist crawled in causing Zabuza to completely disappear from sight.
There was silence for a peace. Then, there was the sound of something dropping, then a sound of ripping. Then a scream rang out in the clearing. At this point Temari sweat dropped. 'Not again.'
The mist slowly cleared. There was a L-shaped shadow. As the mist completely faded, the two ninja came into sight. Surprisingly, the older ninja, Zabuza was on the ground and the blind ninja, Naruto was standing at Zabuza's head looking down at him.
"Who-who are you?" Zabuza said with a shaky, raspy voice.
"One who has seen what one should not see. I am the soon to be Bofuu no Shizuka, a Blind Ninja." Naruto replied, "Now, will you join my cause? In half a year, I'm going to establish my own village."
"As long as you can help me with taking Mist…"
"That will be easy."
"And… well, giving a good home to Haku over there…"
"Ah! So the Demon of the Mist has feelings!"
"Shut it boy! But… yes, you are are correct. I have emotions. We ninja are made to be nothing but tools, but when it comes down to it, we're all as human as everyone else… And I've… lost almost everything. Haku is all I have left. Please help him…" The Demon of the Mist, for the first time in his life, shed tears.
"Aye, well, with you joining us, we may establish the village one month earlier. This is all depending on the amount of missions we take though." Naruto said, thoughtfully.
"I see. But I still need to train Haku. So that may put a dent in your calculations?" Zabuza asked.
"Actually, if you get Haku to about as strong as a talented chuunin, we'll make it sooner than 1 month. In any case, I heard that the Kaguya clan recently attacked right before your assassination attempt. Perhaps we can find a survivor?" Naruto questioned.
"Perhaps. Perhaps."
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Half a year later…
Six people were sitting together in a circle near a shore. They were Gaara, Haku, Kankuro, Naruto, Temari, and Zabuza. Naruto was the first to speak.
"Okay, right now, we are on the Island of the Cursed. Many people have been spirited away here, and bandits come attack the villages often. I believe the people here will be happy to accept a ninja village."
"What do you mean by spirited away?" Haku asked.
"It seems like people disappear suddenly without warning and come back a week, month, or year later completely different. They seem to all have been tested on and turned into a half fish or something." Naruto replied.
Zabuza looked closer at the map before them. He saw that Mist was no more than 3 days of a sail below them. He decided to add his words.
"That isn't the only reason you chose this island is it? You chose this island because we are very close to Mist correct?"
"Yes. I also chose this place because we can defend it easy. We can get the hybrids on our side and that will make defending the sea much easier. Plus, we have Haku who, with some more training, has absolute control over water." Naruto said.
"I plan on making the mother village in the middle of the island and two smaller villages in the northeast and southwest. That way we can have a good defense and more room. Also, we don't have to worry about making the village. I think we can find a place where the earth has its own natural base. Then we just add some jutsu to it." Naruto added.
"Lastly, after taking Mist, we can take the other islands around Mist that they didn't take. There should be people there and we can get resources from there as well." Naruto finished.
"In any case, since we came here to take this place, I'm going to tell you the plan. First, if we run through this forest here, we'll be able to reach the village in an hour. Then, we can run east and northwest to find the bandit camps. Gaara will remain in the village for defense. I will go north to save the other villages. Temari and Zabuza will take the east route. Haku and Kankuro takes the northwest. Your abilities complement each other. Zabuza for close range, and Temari for long. Kankuro for attack and Haku for mid range/defense" Naruto explained.
"Now! Let's move out and take this place!" Naruto shouted.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
5 months later…
In the middle of the Isle of the Cursed, there is a great big rock formation. If someone saw it, they would most likely think a landslide happened. However, land doesn't slide up. But with jutsus, they can. There was also another jutsu on the wall. It made it so that everything chakra related that hit the wall, would break down and be absorbed into it, making it even stronger.
There was no opening visible, but there was a cave nearby. Deep in the cave, there was a marvelous door. Big, wide, made of gold. No one guarded the gate, because no one needed to. The doors would never fall, because on the doors, the same seals that were on the walls were applied. It wasn't the only entrance though, there were multiple other underground entrances leading from other caves.
The other daughter villages weren't as complex, but they were defiantly stronger than most other major hidden villages. This was because the residents of the villages had time and no fear of danger to set up their village. That, and they had a legendary ruler. A jinchuriki ruler. The jinchuriki of the Kyuubi.
Now, a group of six is seen leaving the cave. They are the same group of six, just even more stronger now that they had the right materials and what not, as when they took the island. Except now, one is leaving, and it is none other than the village ruler himself.
"Alright, while I'm gone, Zabuza, you'll be the leader. I trust you will not attack the Mist until I say it is time." Naruto stated
"Bah! I won't. I know the dangers." Zabuza snorted.
"Kankuro, you will run the Navy and the Sea Attack Units." Naruto said.
"Alright, no problem." Kankuro said.
"Haku, you should devote a good amount of time to your training."
"Yes!" Haku replied.
"Temari, you know my plans to the academy. Set it forward."
"Okay! When you get back, we'll have good ninja!" Temari chipped.
"Gaara, you know what to do." Naruto said with a piercing gaze.
"Yes. I'll start the search around our island. I heard there was one nearby" Gaara replied.
"Well, time to return back to that dump of a village."
"Ha, be safe, if your life is threatened, drop the illusion and seals right away." Gaara order sternly.
"Aight, see your soon guys."
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
5 days later…
The chuunin guards of the west gate were incredibly surprised when they saw a boy who had tattered clothes, deep cuts, and muddy face limp up to the gate. They ran up the the boy as he fell. The boy was none other than Naruto.
"Is-is this… Konoha?" Naruto's voice came in a hoarse whisper.
"Yes! Yes it is! What happened to you?" One of chuunin guards asked.
"Well, I-I've been trying to fi-find this pl-place for a while now. A-around four years." Naruto stuttered.
"What? Four years? I know this is a hidden village, but it shouldn't have taken you that long!" The same chuunin guard exclaimed.
"Well… I guess being blind had some to do with it…" Naruto covered his eyes with his hand.
"Oh… OH… Sorry if I offended you."
"It's okay… I'm use to it." 'Sucker.'
"Get the Lord Hokage!"
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
1 hour later…
Naruto was in the hospital, just finished getting treated. He looked a lot better. He was in some real clothes and had his white band over his eyes. He was cleaned up and no blood, dirt, or grim was anywhere present on him.
At this point, an old man in robes with a pyramid-ish hat came into the room with two other masked men. The hat had the character of Fire on it. He was the Hokage. The strongest of the village. When he saw Naruto, he gasped. His thoughts were running rapid. 'Is this? No, it couldn't be. Didn't he… no. But wait, no, that's not right. Wasn't he? Yes? No?'
Naruto, who caught all this movement, slowly pulled his finger to his lips and grinned as if saying to be silent.
However, the Hokage did not notice the sign. He quickly walked over. "Is it? Is it truly you? Naruto?"
Naruto's grin slanted. He decided to reply. "Yeh. It's me. Are you the old man? You're the only one who called me by that before I was thrown out the village 4 years ago."
At the conformation of his name, the masked men, who were ANBU, widened their eyes, which was unnoticed under the mask. 'Didn't he die? How did he come back?'
The Hokage had a different reaction. He embraced Naruto into a bear hug. "It's been so long! I was told that you were killed. Where were you all this time?"
"Well old man, notice the cloth on my eyes? I'm kinda blind. Hard to find a hidden village when all you can do is blindly stumble around feeling things."
"How? How-"
"How did I become blind? Well some red eye ass tried to kill me. Didn't succeed. He only got my eyes and decided to drop me somewhere not in Konoha. I gotta say, when I woke up, I was scared to hell."
"Red Eyes right? It was the Uchiha clan. One of my ANBU caught the man who blinded you while he was doing it. He reported back to me instead of going after you. For that, I wonder what they teach in the ANBU."
"Ah. In any case, now that I'm back here in Konoha, could you find me a house and enter me into the Ninja Academy?"
"The Ninja Academy? Naruto! You're blind! You won't survive as a ninja! You're better off finding a job where you don't need eyes!"
"Listen old man, I'm rare going to be this serious with you. If you enter me into the academy, I'll probably be able to find a way walk without my sight. Maybe through feeling the ground or listening." 'As if I haven't done that already.'
"But…"
"No! I refuse to live a civilian life!"
"… Fine. But if you don't find a way to do normal things by the end of the year, I'll remove you from the academy."
"Heh, you'll never get the chance old man."
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
-Present Time-
'And he hasn't taken me out the academy. I sure showed him!' Naruto grinned.
Naruto then started moving his limbs, testing them. 'Ah, looks like my injuries are done healing. Guess I better get to class. Probably late, darn teachers going to yell at me again.'
You know kit, you could always just let ME heal your little wounds. Then it wouldn't take so much time out of our lives. Came the booming thoughts of one demon.
'Ah shut it ya furhead. If you haven't noticed, your healing kills our lives. I didn't make the seal where your healing chakra makes cells yet. So while I haven't just deal with it!' Naruto's annoyed thoughts circled in his brain.
… For once in his life, the demon was speechless.
'Which reminds me, isn't the genin exam next week? You think I can pass?'
If you don't try the crappy Bunshin Jutsu. then Perhaps. Perhaps.
