Disclaimer: I don't own any of the Naruto characters. I only own my created original characters and am posting this for legalities.

I have decided to delete the older versions of this story after I finish posting what I have edited, but with one major change. I will personally reply to each review, but it will be as the form of a PM instead of in the chapter.

Unseeing Eyes

Part One

Prologue

We, as humans, don't understand the things that we don't see. We can't possibly imagine the things that go on in the world, or other worlds. Consider the fact that our history had an abundance of silent assassins, called ninja or shinobi. Now, consider the fact that, in an alternate world, the time of the shinobi was still running rampant. And, in this world, there were five main countries. These were as followed: the Land of Earth, the Land of Lightning, the Land of Water, the Land of Wind, and the Land of Fire.

These lands host different villages. Iwagakure (Village Hidden Among the Rocks), Kumogakure (Village Hidden in the Clouds), Kirigakure (Village Hidden in the Mist), Sunagakure (Village Hidden in the Sand), and, lastly, Konohagakure (Village Hidden in the Leaves) respectfully.

It is within the village Konohagakure, known as Konoha for short, our story begins. This story revolves around a particular young shinobi – one who is shunned by humanity. Shunned in his home village simply because he harbors something the others can't understand. The story follows him on his quest to complete his nindo: his shinobi way.

But, that is not all there is to this story. There are many other people who are influenced by this boy, but none more than a girl who had lost everything and everyone, except for the one who took her in. She is the last of her immediate family, and the Lord had a plan for her – as he does with every one of his children. This story is also the story of the child who hosted the power of Seiryu, the powerful Dragon God.

I can't get into too much detail right now, but you'll understand soon enough. This is the story of entwined fates – of destinies and of challenges. This is a story of defeat of humility. Of acceptance and friendships forged.

This is the story of Uzumaki Naruto and the girl who saw through his disguise – Ryuujin Kori. This is the story of love, hardships, death, pain, sadness, joy, and a bundle of other emotions that can't be understood by themselves.

This is the story of how the host of Kyuubi found, fought for, and kept his mate.
