Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto... I don't think I own it, but maybe, just maybe... No, bad thoughts.


Prologue: The Dead bloodline

The forest seemed to darken as a blonde haired kid holding a rather large scroll in his arms tried to control his breathing. Thinking back to how this all began, the blonde haired kid let out a shaky breath. 'I know this is your second attempt to pass the graduation test, but you fail. You should try harder next time Naruto... I know you really wanted to graduate this time Naruto, so I guess I have to tell you. It's a secret, but I guess I have to tell you, there's another way to graduate the academy... So I've finally found you... Give the scroll to me Naruto... You are the kyuubi... NARUTOOOO.' Naruto shook his head, trying to focus on the current situation.

Within a clearing near the tree that Naruto hid himself behind stood two ninja. Naruto strained his ears to hear what they were saying.

"I don't care what you have to say. You're not getting your hands on that scroll." Iruka said, wincing as he forced himself to keep standing despite the numerous wounds that littered his body.

"As if you could stop me." Mizuki gloated. "Don't you get it? Naruto is just like me. He wants the scroll for his own power and his own benefits, that's how beasts are. He'll pour all of his rage into the scroll and destroy everything."

"You're right, that is how beasts are... But that's not how Naruto is. Naruto is someone that works hard and puts his heart into whatever he is trying to accomplish, sure he often fails and everyone jumps on him for it, but his suffering and perseverance only makes him stronger." Iruka countered. "So you're wrong. He's nothing like the kyuubi. He is Naruto Uzumaki of Konohagakure no Sato."

"I was going to save you for later, but I changed my mind... You're FINISHED." Mizuki yelled, spinning his giant shuriken. Intending on ending Iruka's life, Mizuki charged forward, but was immediately stopped by an orange and yellow blur ramming into him, making him lose his grip of his shuriken which disappeared in the forest.

"Not bad... for a rookie punk." Mizuki said as he picked himself off of the floor.

"If you ever lay a hand on my sensei, I'll kill you." Naruto growled, resting the giant scroll on the floor.

"You destroy me. Hah... I can completely destroy you in a single move. Let's see you try." Mizuki mocked Naruto.

Glancing down at the scroll, Naruto's mind was in overdrive. 'Damnit, I didn't have enough time to learn that clone jutsu... Can I really beat Mizuki by myself... But I have to protect Iruka-sensei and this scroll... I have to win.' Naruto thought. Glancing back at Iruka's tired form, Naruto flung the scroll at him. "Hey Iruka-sensei. Catch." Turning his gaze back to Mizuki, Naruto pulled kunai from his weapons pouch, before dashing towards him.

Easily blocking the kunai, Mizuki kicked Naruto, knocking him to the floor. "Is that all you've got... I have to admit, I'm kind of disappointed... I don't know why I expected more from you." Mizuki said.

Scowling at Mizuki's words, Naruto slowly picked himself up again. Charging towards Mizuki again, Naruto was shocked when Mizuki easily caught his hand. Not liking the sadistic look in Mizuki's eyes, Naruto tried to tug his arm loose, but failed. A second hand grabbed Naruto, before Mizuki forced Naruto to stab himself in the shoulder.

Naruto let loose a scream as Mizuki twisted the kunai in his shoulder.

"NARUTO." Iruka yelled, moving to stop Mizuki, Iruka collapsed to his knees. "Mizuki you bastard. Stop this."

Ignoring Iruka, Mizuki pulled the kunai from Naruto's shoulder. "What do you think of that, fox brat?" Mizuki taunted. "How about I put the next one here?" He pointed the kunai at Naruto's stomach. "Or maybe I should just end it now." Mizuki placed the kunai on Naruto's chest. "You know what? I think I'll just end you right now... I mean, I still have Iruka and I'm sure he will be more entertaining than you. Goodbye Naruto." Mizuki pulled the kunai back, intending to end Naruto's life in one swing.

Feeling a burning pain in his shoulder, Naruto's eyes widened when he saw the kunai in Mizuki's hand race towards his chest. 'I... I'm going to die? But this isn't how it's supposed to be... I'm supposed to become Hokage... I can't die yet. I won't die.' Naruto thought.

Naruto could feel something odd happen, something was happening to his body. The burning pain in his shoulder lessened and he could feel something happening... something happening in his bones. The bones in Naruto's body were shifting around, almost as if they had a mind of their own. Naruto could feel something shift in his chest... right before the kunai in Mizuki's hand pierced it. Feeling pain, but not as intense as when Mizuki plunged the kunai into his shoulder, Naruto grunted as blood began leaking from his mouth.

"NARUTO. NOOOO." Iruka roared, flinging himself at Mizuki. "I'LL KILL YOU MIZUKI."

Mizuki dropped Naruto as Iruka tackled him to the floor. Feeling the bones shift in side of him, Naruto was shocked to see the kunai still buried in his chest slowly push its way out of him. Unknown to Naruto, his wounds were healing rapidly and his hair was turning white.

Mizuki laughed as he easily pushed the weakened Iruka off. "Don't you understand Iruka? You're far too weak to take me on. You were too weak to protect yourself and..." Mizuki had a sadistic smile on his face." And you were too weak to keep me from killing your student."

Iruka growled as he tried to stand again, but found himself completely exhausted.

Mizuki grabbed a kunai from Iruka's pouch, before placing it right beneath Iruka's eye. "You know what, I think I like killing people with their own weapons. Now I don't have much time, so let's get started." Mizuki said as he slowly brought the kunai closer to Iruka's eye. "What do you think Iruka? You're going to be killed by your own weapon... Just like Naruto." Mizuki chuckled.

Seeing what was happening to Iruka, Naruto immediately darted towards Mizuki. Unknown to Naruto, a sharpened blade made of bone sprouted from the palm of his hand. Tackling Mizuki off of Iruka, Naruto thrust his palm into Mizuki's chest.

Mizuki gasped at the feeling of a blade enter his chest. While Mizuki was glad that the blade had missed his heart, he was still in an enourmous amount of pain due to the blade going completely through his body, pinning him to the floor.

Not noticing that he had pinned Mizuki to the floor with a bone from his body, Naruto raised his left fist, before repeatedly punching Mizuki in the face. "I...TOLD...YOU...THAT...IF...YOU...EVER...HURT...MY...SENSEI...THAT...I...WOULD...KILL...YOU." Naruto spoke between punches.

"Naruto, that's enough." Iruka said, before placing his hand on Naruto's shoulder. Seeing Naruto calm down, Iruka let out a relieved sigh. Trying to help Naruto up, Iruka noticed that Naruto hadn't let go of Mizuki's chest. "Come on Naruto. You can let go of Mizuki now... I doubt that he's going to be getting up from that." Iruka said, pointing at Mizuki's bloodied face.

"I...I know, but my hand is stuck." Naruto replied as he tried to tug his hand from Mizuki's chest, visibly lifting him a little.

Noticing the odd situation, Iruka kneeled down next to Mizuki. "Strange... You pull while I hold Mizuki down." Iruka grabbed Mizuki's shoulders, before Naruto started tugging. Seeing Naruto's hand slowly pull away from Mizuki's , Iruka was shocked to see something white connected to Naruto's hand and Mizuki's chest.

After a few seconds of tugging, Naruto's hand was finally free from Mizuki. "Man, I'm glad that I'm not stuck to this jerk anymore... What...the... IRUKA-SENSEI, SOMETHING ELSE IS STUCK TO MY HAND..." Naruto yelled freaking out at the sight of the strange white thing sticking out of the palm of his hand.

"I SEE THAT YOU IDITO." Iruka yelled back. "NOW CALM DOWN."

"But what is it?" Naruto asked. Grabbing the strange white thing, Naruto attempted to tug it off, but stopped when he felt something pull inside of his arm. "AAAH, IT'S INSIDE OF ME. GET IT OUT." Naruto yelled again as he tried to tug the white thing out of his hand.

"STOP PULLING AT IT YOU IDIOT." Iruka yelled as he grabbed Naruto's arms. "Now tell me what happened when Mizuki stabbed you."

"Um... it really hurt when he stabbed me in my shoulder, but before he stabbed me in my chest it felt as if something was moving inside of me...Like...my...bones... Holy shit, this is one of my bones." Naruto said, looking at the bone sticking out of his hand in awe. "Ne Iruka-sensei, I didn't know ninja could move their bones outside their body."

"They can't." Iruka deadpanned. "I think we should go see the Hokage about this, maybe he could tell us what's happening to you."

"Um, what should I do with this?" Naruto asked, pointing to the bone sticking out of his hand.

"I'm not really sure... well, if it's a part of your body... try pulling it back in." Iruka replied.

Nodding at Iruka's suggestion, Naruto's entire focus was on the bone sticking out of his hand. At first nothing happened, but eventually it started sinking back in until all that was left was un blemished flesh.

"That felt kind of weird." Naruto remarked, looking at the spot where the bone entered.

"Yeah, I'll bet." Iruka muttered. "Seeing as you aren't as badly hurt as me, you can carry Mizuki while I will take the scroll." Iruka said, smiling at Naruto's groan. "No time to complain, we have to get to the Hokage's office quickly."

"Fine, whatever." Naruto grumbled before he grabbed Mizuki's leg. Noticing that Iruka had already grabbed the scroll, the duo slowly made their way to the Hokage's office with Mizuki dragging behind them.

Mizuki groaned as he slowly began to wake up. Feeling that someone was dragging him, he shifted his body to the side, intending to grab on to something to try and escape. If he had paid any attention to his surroundings, Mizuki would have realised that the direction he shifted towards had numerous large rocks that he immediately banged his head into, knocking himself out.

It would be a while later that Mizuki would wake up again. Looking up, Mizuki realised that he was inside a building. Intending to use the small space to his advantage, Mizuki sat up, but immediately fell down when the person dragging him walked up an elevated surface. Sitting up again, Mizuki hit his head on a railing that was on the wall. Suppressing the groan that threatened to escape his throat, Mizuki decided to pretend to be unconscious and wait for the perfect time to strike. Unfortunately for Mizuki, Naruto was walking upstairs and Mizuki's head banged each step, knocking him out again.

Waking up for a third time, Mizuki was angry at the amount of times he had banged his head. "THAT'S IT." Mizuki yelled, jumping to his feet. Looking around the room, Mizuki realised that he was standing in the Hokage's office, in front of the man he attempted to steal from.

"Ah, Mizuki-kun. I think it best that we have a long discussion on how you convinced an academy student to steal one of the most important scrolls in this village, along with you attempting to kill a fellow chunin and said academy student and mentioning a certain secret. " The Hokage said dangerously, his eyes peering into Mizuki's.

Mizuki calmly walked up to the wall, before banging his head into it as hard as possible, knocking himself out.

"Now, as you were saying." The Hokage looked to Iruka and Naruto.

Iruka looked amused at Mizuki's downed form, before turning towards the Hokage. "Right. As I was saying, After Mizuki revealed information on what happened to the kyuubi, he attempted to kill Naruto and then pursued Naruto in an attempt to steal the scroll. After I stopped Mizuki from finding Naruto, he attempted to kill me. Naruto saved me and then he attempted to kill Naruto and myself." Iruka explained. "There is actually something I would like to ask you. What happened to Naruto? Why is his hair white and why can his bones come out like they do now? Is it the..."

The Hokage raised his hand. "No, it's not the fox." He said, before turning towards Naruto. "Naruto-kun, could I ask you to make that bone come out of your hand again?"

"Sure thing old man." Naruto smiled, before lifting his hand. Focusing on it, a sharp bone pierced through his skin, slowly extending to the length of his forearm.

"Most interesting." The Hokage softly prodded the bone sticking out of Naruto's hand. "I believe that I know what this is." The Hokage pulled a pipe from his robes, before lighting it and taking a puff. "There was once a clan that existed in the hidden mist and it was known as the Kaguya clan. It was very rare, but there were a few members who awoke a kekkei genkai that was capable of manipulating their bones. Those that had this kekkei genkai could turn their entire body into a weapon, it was thought that they had the ultimate body. But sadly the Kaguya clan is extinct now."

"Then why did his hair turn white?" Iruka asked curiously, before glancing at Naruto.

"I believe that is due to the kekkei genkai awakening in young Naruto here. There are plenty of Kekkei genkai that strain the body when they awaken and this specific kekkei genkai changes the inside of the users' body. The large amount of chakra it used when awakening must have strained Naruto's entire body, causing the white hair that you see." The Hokage explained. "Any other questions?"

"Ne old man, what's this kekkei genkai thing called?" Naruto asked curiously.

The Hokage hummed lightly. "It was called the Shikotsumyaku... The dead bone pulse."
