Mothers, Chapter 1: Prelouge

=Konoha Streets=

A four year-old, blond boy is running in the rain. Just a normal boy running, nothing out of the ordinary, not even the mob of angry drunken civilians.

Nope, just another normal day for Naruto Uzumaki. Fortunately (or not so), all that is about to change as Naruto runs into a side-alley to se a brick wall. He turns around as the mob blocks off the exit.

"Nowshh yoush ganna dieee mmmmonshtor." Slurred a drunk, many cheers and similar statements followed. The young blond cried and asked what he did, but they didn't listen. "Nowsh Iz makes me family yoush killed all appy in yoush deadsth." Ranted the first drunk as he pulled out a knife, while others had similar thoughts and pulled out their own weapons. As they mutilated the poor kid they didn't realize he feinted, but they wouldn't have cared anyway.

The boy woke up feeling wet, wet but warm. He stood up and looked around to see he was in a dark tunnel that was waist deep in water. (He's still four, remember?) Looking around, he noticed a faint red glow that seemed to be the source of the warmth. Not wanting for the heat to go away, he followed it toward a giant room. The room was fairly plain except for one wall was made of bars with a metal block that had a weird doodle on it. Seeing as the heat was coming from the other side of the bars he went closer, until five MASSIVE claws slammed through the bars and stopped a millimeter from Naruto's nose. He shrieked in surprise and fell on his rear.

Two great red slanted eyes with animalistic pupils opened and looked at the boy, holding mirth and hidden surprise. "Well, well," spoke a deep yet warm and soothing voice, "The little kit has come for a visit. Hm, tell me young one, where is your mother?" The frightened young boy answered with a shaky "I-I don't know. T-the pe-people said sh-sh-she left me for being a m-m-m-monster." He then proceeded to bawl his eyes out.

The eyes narrowed, then seemed to light up "Well, young kit, I am your mother. Those bad men lied to you. You see, on the day of you birth, a bad man took control of me and made your father seal me up inside you." Explained the eyes and fuzzy muzzle that accompanied them.

"Do you see the doodle on this cage?" 'Mother' asked. Getting a nod from the boy, she continued, " If you could change it to look like this," a doodle with three spirals around it instead of eight appeared above the seal. "Then I could protect you and speak to you, my child. Don't you want your mother to be with you?"

Naruto quickly nodded and walked up to the cage and the 'doodle' lowered to him. He quickly smudged out five of the little spirals, and felt an overflowing pain, "I'm sorry, Naruto. The pain will stop soon and all will be alright, don't worry." Naruto saw red, then black. Then, he woke up.

Thirty seconds after Naruto fainted, a red aura lashed out and knocked back all of the near by mob. Getting up, Naruto heard the beautiful voice. "Give me their tainted blood; give me the blood of those that hurt you, my son. You know what to do."

With a maniacal smile, Naruto reached out as crimson flames reached out and grabbed the villagers, not harming them yet. "Fire prison." Said the crazed four-year-old, "Instant Cremation!!" The flames seemed to crush and evaporate the people trapped inside, as blood seeped to the ground, Naruto fainted hearing mother. "Good boy, momma will protect you."
