(Natural Born Chapter 1)
Running was something Naruto was used to. He had outrun countless people in his time and had rarely been caught. He stole food in order to live and the fat clerks would only put up a small challenge before their out of shape bodies would give out on them. He would out run even trained ANBU when they were in the area and he was caught stealing something. Even they rarely caught him, though it was usually only because of the white eyed people that they were able to do it.
Currently Naruto was running for his life through a portion of the deep dark forest that surrounded Konohagakure, the village in which Naruto lived. It seemed his sixed birthday the villagers had organized a giant hunt in order to finally get rid of the village pariah on the same day as the Kyuubi attack, and unfortunately his birthday as well.
It was like this every year. The villagers would get drunk, start talking about the good old days, then their mood would turn sour when they would remember the Kyuubi's attack, and that anger would then be directed at him, for reasons unknown to Naruto, and then they would try and kill him.
This only started happening around Naruto's fourth birthday as the village had been too stressed out rebuilding and maintaining a false since of power to show to the rest of the world. The first time the Hokage had fortunately been visiting him and was able to deter the mob, his fifth birthday he was able to hide in the Red Light District, but unfortunately this year they had blocked that option off before he could get to his hiding spot, The Ninja Fantasy Bar, which had scantily dressed women would ask one multiple occasions ask the men if they wanted to visit the 'Powder Room' and it was rare for the men to say no.
They had formed a large mob again this year and had basically invaded his apartment, not that his bastard of a land lord tried to stop them, and attempted to murder Naruto in his own home. Luckily Naruto had heard them coming and had used the fire escape to leave. One of the ninja in the crowd though had seen him and pointed this out to the others in the crowd and the chase was on.
Naruto didn't really know what god he had offended in a past life but he really wished said god would just let go of his grudge. Naruto jumped fences, ran through homes, some of which were still eating dinner, those people he stole food from when he had the chance to grab some as he ran by, swam through pools, and basically any other obstacle he could cross over. If he couldn't crossover it he would find some kind of short cut nobody would have ever thought of.
Unfortunately as Naruto was coming around a corner a kunai somehow pierced the side of a wall and kept on going. The kunai was glowing a slight blue color and was able to pierce Naruto in the right side of his chest. Knowing what would happen to him Naruto kept on running in spite of his injuries but this caused a blood trail to form that the villagers had taken advantage of.

"Ahahahaha(breathing heavily), must get away" spoke Naruto as ran through the dark forest.
The pain in his chest was a burning fire and it was killing him. He had pulled out the kunai and stuck it in his pocket just in case the inevitable happened. His sight was going blurry and the burning was travelling through his veins.
'Yeap this was planned. They even poisoned the kunai for god's sake' thought Naruto as he held the kunai in one hand and stumbled through the forest with his ever weakening legs.
The forest never seemed to end and the sound of his pursuers seemed to be getting even closer. Naruto wasn't scared; he had long ago lost that fear and had come to accept it as something natural. He had unconsciously turned his sense of fear into a heightened sense, much like a six sense that he had used on more than one occasion to predict when something bad was going to happen. No what Naruto was feeling was anger. He was angry at himself for being weak, he was angry with the world for making him its personal whipping boy, and he was angry that all of this was happening on such a beautiful night. The night was black as these villager's souls and the moon was as full as could be, and as red as his blood.
'Well if I have to die, at least it will be on such a wonderful night' thought Naruto as he continued to run through the dark forest.
The forest was something of a mystery to Naruto. Ever since he learned to understand the English language he had heard stories on the ferocity of this forest and yet he, a six year old boy, had been in and out of it more frequently then the ninja of his village and hadn't ever seen anything more dangerous than a large four foot snake and even that completely ignored him, though that upset him more than anything.
As Naruto ran he kept hearing screaming and the sounds of explosions. He stopped and looked back seeing a plume of smoke rising up from the forest behind him. He grinned thinking maybe this forest might be a little bit more dangerous than he previously thought.
As Naruto kept on running he heard the sound of something traveling through the air at high speeds and quickly ducked and moved out of the way. Out of the corner of his eye he saw a kunai encased in lightning pass by the area where his head had been and pierce five trees before being stopped halfway through a large rock.
When Naruto turned and saw who had thrown that kunai at him he groaned loudly. There standing in the trees was at least ten ninja and not the weak kind either. There were two with those pail white eyes that always made him feel like they were looking at his soul, two and a half of the red eyed people with weird coma marking in their eyes that he felt were always blaming him for something. The rest were jonin with animal masks on like the Hokage's ANBU except they were only wearing the masks not the whole black outfit. In the distance Naruto could hear the regular civilians along with the weaker and slower ninja coming his way. This was going to be a long night for Naruto.
"Don't tell me you guys are lost and found little old me" spoke Naruto with annoyance in his voice. He knew he was screwed you didn't have to tell him, but that didn't mean he had to play the role of someone's bitch now did it.
"Looks like we finally caught you, you damn demon spawn" spoke one of the ninja as he pulled out a tanto and started channeling chakra through it. Naruto looked at him with annoyance in his eyes. He wasn't too fond of that little nick name he had been given.
"Sorry you've got the wrong guy, the name's Naruto Uzumaki, not demon spawn, so you're going to have to take your little search party somewhere else" spoke Naruto was a voice that spoke without fear or really even caring about the situation at hand.
"Don't you dare try and speak your way out of this demon. It is time you finally got your just desert and we are finally going to get our justice" spoke one of the ninja as he pulled out a Kanata and started channeling fire based chakra through it causing the blade to turn red. You could practically see the heat coming off of the blade and Naruto knew even dodging that blade would leave third degree burns if it was to close.
"I don't remember seeing you a day in my life so how could I have crossed you? Maybe I stole from you, or could it be you were the guy I turned pink that one time" spoke Naruto though his voice was devoid of emotion. He could feel the poison spreading faster and faster. Whatever poison they used must have been very expensive because he had a great immunes system, strong enough to even fight off most poisons and viruses, but whatever this stuff was wasn't slowing down at all.
"No, you killed my wife" shouted the Uchiha, his sharingan eyes spinning wildly in his head. He was extremely angry when Naruto made a fake yawn at his expense
"Sorry doesn't ring any bells. She mustn't have been very memorable for me to actually kill her and not remember. Maybe she was so tired of you that she killed herself but didn't want to look like a coward and blamed me" spoke Naruto as he examined his nails like he had nothing better to do. He didn't like that his hand started to shake slightly. The poison was already starting to kill the tissue in his arm as it had his chest. Naruto knew that in a few moments it would make its way to his heart or brain and after that it was game over.
"You baster" shouted the Uchiha, but he was restrained by another Uchiha who had an annoyed look in his eyes.
"Calm down can't you see he is just trying to rile you up? We all want a piece of him, so don't get antsy" spoke the Uchiha as he looked down on Naruto with hatred in his eyes.
"Oh so that's what this is all about? I didn't know so many of Konoha's finest swung that way" joked Naruto as he saw their hatred double. Fasted way to anger a strait guy was to call out his sexuality after all, though Naruto didn't really care about sexuality yet seeing as he was only six years old.
"Were not like that, were strait" shouted one of the Hyuga looking truly angry. Naruto knew a great way to get under the Hyuga's skin.
"That coming from a member of Konoha's most perverted clan? How many times have you activated those eyes of yours and saw another man naked? Did you ever wonder about what it was like to 'experiment' a bit with them?" by now the Hyuga were as red as the Uchiha's sword and looked ready to murder, well even more ready than before.
"Silence" shouted the Hyuga. Naruto just shrugged his shoulder but then fell on his butt and his head fell forward with his hair covering his face and eyes.
"What happened" asked one of the ANBU wanabees.
The one eyed Uchiha wanabe, or Kakashi Hatake just smiled and jumped down from the tree. He walked forward a bit but then turned around to look at his partners in crime.
"It looks like that expensive poison I got from Kiri really did the trick. It is the same stuff they used to kill the Yodaime Hokage with" spoke Kakashi as he looked down on his sensei's killer.
"What? We were supposed to get our revenge and yet you stole it from us" shouted one of the ANBU masked ninja as he jumped down from the trees and landed beside Kakashi and stared him in the eyes with hatred building.
"The monster would have just healed from any damage you could inflict so it was necessary" spoke Kakashi as he looked at the ninja with annoyance.
"You're only saying that because it was you who killed him. I doubt you would be preaching this high and mighty crap to use if it had been someone else who had killed him" spoke the ANBU wanabee as he pointed towards Naruto and then towards Kakashi.
"What is done is done, there isn't anything you can do about that" spoke Kakashi with annoyance as he started to walk away, on his way to his sensei's grave to morn him some more.
"Fine leave but I am going to at least burn the body" spoke the ANBU wanabee as he walked over to Naruto. He at least wanted to see the boy's eyes as he burned.
When the wanabee ANBU ninja got to Naruto he bent down and leaned Naruto's head back and went to open his eyes, but was shocked when Naruto opened his eyes on his own. The ninja went to say something but there was a sickening sound of metal piercing flesh and bones right before everything went dark for the wanabee ANBU ninja.
When Kakashi looked back he felt his anger boiling over. There sitting there was the demon child holding a kunai that was halfway buried in a respectable ninja of the Hidden Leaf Village head. He had flash backs of when the Kyuubi attacked the village and its claws cut down countless ninja without care or trouble.
"Damn he wasn't as dead as we thought" spoke one of the Hyuga but like the others he was happy. He was like that other ninja in feeling Kakashi had stolen their chance to kill the boy. Now that he was alive again they had their chance to extract revenge.
"What are you guys waiting for attack" shouted one of the ninja as he ran at Naruto.
Naruto's chest was in agonizing pain, and he couldn't feel his right arm, but his instincts were still there. He still had his animal instincts along with his killer instincts as well, so her rolled over and avoided a strike from the first ninja and started running off holding the pouch of ninja supplies he had taken off of that ninja he just killed.
"After him" shouted one of the ninja.
"What's that sound" asked another.
When everyone looked down they saw the body of the ninja that Naruto had just killed smoking from the underneath. One of the ANBU masked ninja walked forward and flipped the body over and instantly regretted it. On the other side of the body had to be at least ten paper bombs and they had all been lit. He remembered how they had been talking about wrapping up the demon child and then blasting him to pieces earlier that day.
"Karma you b" but that was as far as he got before the explosion went off and killed him along with five of the other ANBU masked ninja now lowering their number to two. The Uchiha plus the wanabee Uchiha as well as the Hyuga had been able to escape the blast and shrapnel.
"I am going to make him suffer the slowest most painful death he could ever imagine" spoke one of the Uchiha as he pulled his katana to his side and channeled even more fire chakra into it.
"Agreed" spoke the wanabee Uchiha as he ran off towards Naruto.

As Naruto ran through the forest he smirked at how well his plan had worked. The pain was spreading to his legs so he knew he didn't have much time but he would take out as many of those ninja as he could.
He was able to make it to a clearing when the other ninja were able to catch up to him. He looked around and smirked. He had been able to kill eight of his twenty pursuers, a number much higher than what he had assumed he would be able to when he was first pursued. Now he wished the civilians would catch up because he had plenty of explosive kunai on him now and it would do his soul good to blast a good number of them to bits.
"Looks like your numbers have thinned quite a bit" spoke Naruto as he leaned on his good leg. His right leg and lung for that matter were already starting to quite on him making both standing and breathing much more difficult.
"Shut up monster. We are going to make you regret what you did" spoke the wanabee Uchiha as he eyed Naruto with that one red eye.
"Trust me when I say that no matter what you do I will never regret killing you guys" spoke Naruto with a smile as he pulled out a kunai and prepared to defend himself.
"Enough of this crap. I want him dead and that's what I'm going to get" shouted one of the Uchiha as he ran at Naruto with his red hot sword cocked back.
Naruto grinned at the oncoming Uchiha. His arrogance and anger mixed in with his decided form of attack made what he was about to do perfect.
Naruto pulled his arm back and then threw the kunai in it at the oncoming Uchiha. The Uchiha easily blocked the kunai but that was just what Naruto wanted him to do. When the red hot sword hit the kunai with a paper bomb attached to it well let's just say bombs away. There was nothing left of the Uchiha except a puddle of blood, some body parts, a small crater, and a plume of smoke raising into the air.
"Ha that's what you get for messing with Naruto Uzu" but that was as far as Naruto got before a lightning covered hand pierced his heart from the back.
Naruto looked down at the hand for a second not realizing what had just happened until he looked behind him and saw the one eyed Uchiha or the wanabee Uchiha standing there with a serious look on his face and a slight grin that was visible through his face mask.
"Looks like this is the end demon" spoke Kakashi as he looked down on his sensei's killer. He hadn't been this happy since the last time he saw his sensei, but now he could go on living knowing his sensei could finally rest in peace.
"Seems so, but at least I won't be going alone" spoke Naruto as he removed his shirt revealing all of the rest of the paper bombs that the dead ANBU wanabee had on him, which was a lot. There was so many that the guy had to roll them up like a giant money wad.
"You wouldn't. That many paper bombs and there wouldn't be anything in this clearing left" shouted Kakashi as he tried to pull his hand free of Naruto's chest, but found Naruto's hand firmly held onto his own.
"I hope you have made your peace with the maker ninja because you're about to meet her" shouted Naruto as he activated the paper bombs on his body.
The explosion was incredible to say the least. Kakashi had been wrong about the power of the blast. It did only destroy the clearing but that was because of the way Naruto had applied the paper bombs. He didn't want to kill the creature in the forest, they were innocents, but he did want to make sure he killed the ninja in the clearing so he applied the bombs mainly to his lower body like legs, feet, and waist causing the explosion to go down and be powerful but spread slowly.
Naruto got what he wanted in the end. The ninja were all dead, body parts were laying everywhere and it was literally raining blood, but no animals were hurt in Naruto's vengeance. There was a giant crater in the center of the ex-clearing and amazingly Naruto's upper body from his hips up was still intact though badly burned, bleeding, and lacerated along with body parts of his attackers.
It was then that the civilians and lesser ninja arrived to see the destruction that had occurred. They walked to the edge of the crater and looked down, and what they saw made there night. Seeing the body of Naruto in pieces caused them to rejoice and they even forgot about the dead lying around Naruto. Some of the even braver ones jumped down into the crater and ran up to Naruto's body pieces and started kicking them and stuff. None of them realized that though almost dead, Naruto wasn't completely dead. He still had a spark of life in his mind, but that wasn't enough to keep the Nine Tails at bay.
All of the civilians and the weaker ninja started screaming when massive amounts of red chakra started shooting out of Naruto's stomach where an intricate seal had appeared and shot into the sky. About half way it took the form of a ghost like form of the Nine Tails who was grinning victoriously knowing in only a few short years it will have reformed and Konoha was its first stop on its road to revenge.

Even this wasn't enough to extinguish that last spark of life in Naruto's head. That part that clung to this world as it stared up at the beautiful big full blood soaked moon that looked to be much closer than it usually did causing it to look bigger as well.
'I don't want to die, not yet. I haven't gotten the revenge that I want. Look at them. They are so happy I'm dead and yet I can't even wipe that smirk up off of their faces. If only I had more power, if only I had more time, if only I had more BLOOD' thought Naruto as his hatred for all things related to Konoha started to take over what little body and soul he had left. It filled him with an unnatural energy and spread to that which was around him.
Out of the corner of Naruto's eye he saw the blood of his enemies starting to pool up and make its way towards his body. He felt an unnatural thirst take over after that. Oh the thirst was the worst. It consumed him far more than his hatred ever did and drove him to stick out his tongue. He stuck it out twice as far as he thought was possible and finally the blood started to absorb into him. All the blood of his enemies started to rise up and swirl into him filling him with a power greater than any he had ever felt before.

As the villagers rejoiced screaming at the top of their lungs to their loved ones about how the demon child was finally dead and how they had been avenged they heard the sound of slurping. When they turned around they were appalled at what they saw. There was Naruto's body armless with its tongue stretched out licking the blood of the one's he had killed. They went to stop him but then the blood started to swirl all around them and then shoot straight into the boy.
The watched as the boy's body was rebuilt by the blood of his enemies and how the darkness of the forest seemed to stretch out and envelope the area. It was like they were in an entirely new world, or a nightmare would have been a better word to describe what they were seeing. The land had turned jet black while the sky had turned a blood red color and up above the moon was like a giant pearl with a pink hue to it.
XXX
Naruto felt a power unlike any other. It made the power the nine tails had displayed seem like a joke, and the killing intent was amazing. Some of the other civilians literally die by being scared to death.
As the corpse stood up the blackness that had enveloped it started to peel away into small black bats. One by one they fell off to reveal the new and improved Naruto Uzumaki. His eyes were blood red with dark black slits in the center of them. His hair had gone from a bright blonde color to a silvery white color. His skin was as smooth and perfect as one could imagine of such a noble yet dark creature yet as pail as the normal full moon. He stood a good six inches taller and the thin look from under eating had disappeared to reveal nice firm muscles and a stream line body that most would kill for. His fingernails were sharp looing and his clothes were still in taters, but it was his teeth that really scared them. They were ivory white and looked shaper than any kunai but it was the two front fangs that scared them the most. They were twice as long as the other teeth and for some reason they all had the sensation to hide their necks.
The civilians and other ninja were in Hell

Naruto was in Nirvana

Up in the Hokage's tower Hiruzen Saritobi had already got into his battle outfit. He hadn't though things would get this bad tonight but he was obviously wrong. He thought they would beat the boy up and then leave him in a gutter for the night not kill him and unleash the damn Nine Tails on them again.
'These civilians are far too stupid for their own good' thought Hiruzen as a squad of his finest ninja, except for Kakashi and Yamato, appeared before him.
"Hokage what are your order" spoke on of them.
"Find Naruto and try and stop the Nine Tails from escaping. If you can't stop it then kill the boy before the Nine Tails can escape. That will at least give us more time to prepare for the Nine Tails next eventual attack" spoke Hiruzen as he grabbed a giant sealing scroll that was used to control the one on Naruto.
"Yes sir" shouted the ninja right before leaving.
'I only hope we can either fix this problem or kill Naruto before the fox escapes. If the fox escapes while its host is alive then it takes a considerable less amount of time for it to reform, maybe one or two years at best opposed to the nine or ten if the host dies' thought the Hokage as he got ready for battle and charged off towards Naruto.

It hadn't even taken one minute. Naruto had moved so fast and killed them so quickly that some of them were still looking around for him even after he had ripped out their heart. Only one, a brown haired, black eyed, pail skinned man had even been able to move an inch before Naruto had his throat in his mouth drinking all of his delicious yet calming blood down until the man was nothing but a husk like all the others he had killed.
Naruto was having so much fun, he was in a blood frenzy as some would call it, and didn't even notice a large metal object exit what looked like a miniature black hole, with lights and windows on it, even after it hit the weakened and almost dead Naruto. (Some say vampires are technically dead while others disagree so I am just avoiding the confusion).
XXX
Moments before the bus had hit Naruto an inter-dimensional bus driver had felt the call of another monster signaling a pick up. Normally the bus driver would ignore it because he already had a passenger, but this power could only be from that of a powerful higher monster, S class for sure, and one doesn't ignore an S-class monster and walk away unharmed, so he exited his own worm hole and went to pick up his next fare. He hadn't been expecting to come out of his portal and hit someone. Usually he did a much better job than that when exiting the portal.
"Driver what is going on? I do not believe I asked to be dropped off here" spoke a voice from the back of the bus. The woman was beautiful in all forms of the word with her flawless white hair, amazing blue eyes, and snow white skin. She was a Snow Woman for sure and a very powerful one at that.
"My pardons mam but we have another passenger who wishes to join us" spoke the bus driver as he opened the door and stepped out of the bus. The woman, named Tsurara Shirayuki, looked out of the window and basically saw a war zone slash blood bath but the odd thing was there was no blood in the area. She got curious and decided to check out what was going on.
When she got off of the bus she saw the bus driver looking down on a young boy with tremendous demonic energy who was sleeping on the ground and was almost naked. She did notice his mouth was slightly open revealing long fangs. There was only one creature he could be.
"Vampire" spoke Tsurara as she looked down on the boy.
"Correct madam, but it seems he had burnt himself up. I don't know the circumstances, but it seems he has passed out, so I don't really know where to take him" spoke the bus driver his weird glowing eyes alit with curiosity.
"What dimension is this" asked Tsurara as she looked around. She hadn't been to this world before mainly because she only traveled to the Land of the Snow Woman, Yōkai Academy, and the Land of the Succubus in which the Snow Women were allied with.
"This is the Elemental World. In this world humans actually have the ability to gain some great power through training their inner energies to produce a multitude of great powers" spoke the bus driver.
That was why many feared him. Only he could jump between worlds as easily as he did and he knew of many that nobody else did. He knew of powers and other things that nobody in the monster world had ever heard of yet he had seen, and probably dabbled in, for countless years.
"Are there any vampires in this world?"
"No, he is the only one. Beside me, he is the first real monster to ever come to this world and I highly doubt it was by accident." Spoke the bus driver.
"So how did he get here?" asked Tsurara as she looked at the boy? His power was great and mainly out of control, but she could still tell he was a good kid at heart.
"I don't know, but if I had to guess I would say he was a natural born vampire, which is extremely rare even amongst the most rare of occasions" spoke the bus driver as he looked at the boy like he was a mystery he truly wished to watch unravel.
"Then I will be taking him to the Land of the Snow Women with me" spoke Tsurara as she looked at the smirking bus driver.
"Alright, but you do know you're going to have to pay his fee correct?" Tsurara just sweat dropped at such a ridiculous thing but nodded her head in agreement and picked the boy up.
When they were all situated in the bus and the bus driver started to pull off they saw a group of men led by a really old man run into the forest and start shouting something in a weird language and charged the bus at decent speeds, but before they could get to the bus the bus entered a worm hole thus taking them to a world in which the elemental nations could never touch.
By the end of the day Naruto was lying in a small bed with a young blue haired girl with five Holy Locks wrapped around his left wrist with jet black subjugation beads used to keep the Holy Locks attached. This was to keep Naruto from going insane with bloodlust when he woke up and slowly help him get adjusted to his new powers.
