Summary: Thunderstorms never seemed to scare him. They always calmed him. The crackling lighting was as electric as his azure eyes. The same electricity that ran through his veins. This boy was a storm. But will the lightning crack through the facade? (Shinobi Universe) Ranton Naruto

Warning: Naruto is going to be hella OOC, but for only a portion of the story. Meaning that he will be calmer, and smarter. But he will still have his famous traits of course. Naruto has the kekkei genkai, Ranton, or storm release. This story will contain shonen-ai(MALE/MALE). Now for the real warning. This story contains coarse language, violence, abuse, and sexual situations (eventual).

Note: This fanfiction isn't going to have Naruto suddenly have powers and become godlike (even though it might seem so). He has some intelligence, but he will learn about his powers over time. But I assure you that he will be badass when the time comes.

Another Note: If you don't like how Naruto is in a male on male pairing...guess what... I really don't give a single shit. Don't tell me that this story would be better as a FemNaruto fic. Don't tell me how my story could be better based off of your homophobic beliefs. You can take that opinion and shove it up you know where and make your own story. Read the warnings that I take my time to write. If you don't like what it says, then use your brain and click out of the tab. It's simple. *sighs* But you are free to critique the story if you wish.

Pairing: SasuNaru

Categories: Adventure, Humor, Angst and Romance (eventual)

Rating: M

I do not own Naruto or Naruto Shippuden, Masashi Kishimoto does. Sasuke may or may not agree to that though.

Prologue: Arashi

Flashback: 6 years ago

There was a storm.

Thunder echoed throughout the whole village. Lightning illuminated the skies for split seconds. The trees that surrounded the hidden village were bowing from the weight of the constant water. Droplets of rain made rivers on top of the colorful roofs. The water ran down the four stone faces of the Hokage Monument, making it seem as if they were weeping. But for what? Were they crying from the thunder's scolding?

Is the thunder a representation for Kami's anger? Why is she so angry? Is it for the fall of humanity? Probably. Kami is angry at the human's changes. They used to be such sweet, passionate creatures, now they all they seemed to harbor was hatred.

Hatred for the wrong things. Hatred for things that can't be changed. Hatred for something he couldn't control.

A little boy sauntered through the muddy roads of the village, completely disregarding the hell happening above him. He looked to be the age of six years. Why was a six year old boy outside in the middle of a storm? Where were his parents?

These were the questions of an old man with red hat concealing his face hiding in the shadows of an alley, watching the child. He wasn't just any old man, he was the Sandaime Hokage. His thoughts were interrupted when heard an adorable giggle. Brown eyes looked towards the kid.

The child was in front of him, grinning blindingly bright. Big childish eyes were an electric cerulean color. The slightly chubby face had whisker marks that only adorned his features, making him look exotic. Golden blond bangs fell over his eyes, dripping with water. The hokage frowned. It was painful to look at. He looked just like him.

"Hi Ojiji!" The little blond exclaimed cheerfully as he waved in greeting.

The elderly man raised a grey eyebrow. "How did you find me, child?" He completely masked his chakra when he was observing the blond. There is no way a six year old could sniff him out.

Blue eyes darkened in confusion. "I dunno. I could just feel ya there." He said as he waved his arms around to further prove his point.

The man seemed to take the answer for now, but he would investigate it later. "Why are you outside, Naruto-kun. You should be at home." He reprimanded.

Naruto looked down. The blue of his eyes were swirling around, signaling his mood change. He looked away from the hokage with a grim face. Rain continued to flow down his face. "The storm keeps them away." The blond said in a resentful tone.

The Sandaime looked down in shame. Those villagers. They don't know the difference between the container and the contained. It was pathetic really. It became harder and harder each day to sympathize with them. To want to protect them. He understood that that beast took away their homes and loved ones. But is it really necessary to use that child that held that same beast as a scapegoat?

While his mind was racing with thoughts and regrets, he didn't notice that the blond was walking away. Towards the lighting. He snapped out of his trance.

"Naruto...Naruto come back this instan-"

The boy held his hand out towards the sky happily as he looked up at the clouds in wonder. A flash of lightning chose that exact moment to strike. Blue eyes widened in panic as he felt the electricity coat his body. Energy flowed through veins almost like water. The more it flowed the more he felt constipated of energy. Like he couldn't find a way to let it out. Naruto never felt this before. What this the chakra that Jiji was talking about?

The blond looked at the frozen man for help. "J-jiji!" The hokage didn't move an inch. He just stared at him with comically wide eyes.

This wasn't the time to panic. The blond calmed himself down and concentrated. He pushed the chakra flow towards his hands and aimed at a random fence and hoped for the best as he looked away with tightly closed eyes. Bright purple laser beams shot out of his small hands and collided into the wooden fence, creating a loud explosion. Two huge smoking holes grew as the rain cooled down the heat from the electricity.

Naruto looked at his shaking hands. 'What was that? It felt like something zapped me.' The boy was brought out of his thoughts when he felt that he was shaking. Frightened eyes looked into the brown depths of the old man.

The hokage shook him. "Naruto-kun! Are you alright!" He never had never seen something like that in all of his life. Not even on the battlefield. Was it some sort of elemental manipulation?

The blond boy started shaking in fear as tears ran down his eyes. The old man wrapped his arms around the tiny frame to comfort him. A wrinkled nose nuzzled soaked blond locks as he looked up. The sight shocked him.

Dark grey clouds were spiraling directly above them in the shape of a cyclone. Was this a result of that beam? Is this a kekkei genkai?

He held the boy tighter as the boy sniffled. "You are a hurricane, Uzumaki Naruto"

Flashback End

Tan hands put on the rubber gloves that his jiji gave him. He didn't want to accidentally electrocute or burn anyone with his electricity.

Purple gloved hands grabbed a green toad wallet and disappeared under the wide, long sleeves of his kimono.

He quickly strapped his grey shinobi sandals and ran out of the door of his small apartment with a bright smile on his face. Towards the academy he goes.
