The Maelstroms Journey
Authors notes: I don't own Naruto... Or anything really, hopefully that changes soon. Chapter 1: The Beggining
Konohagakure Aka Konoha, was a peaceful village filled with happiness, generosity, and and neighborly love. Except for one boy who held the hate of almost the entire village, his name was Naruto Uzumaki. And this is his story.
(Insert really awesome intro theme from your favorite anime, and replace the main characters face with Narutos. To much to ask for... Yeah i thought so.)
Naruto Uzumaki a 8 year old standing in at about 3 feet 10 inches and weighing a measly 45 Lbs. he has sun-kissed blonde hair and a set of deep cerulean blue eyes. He was the most hated thing in the village ( Besides things like mosquitos, ticks, cockroaches etc cuz nothing is more hated then those things.) and was treated like trash, the Third Hokage had watched over him personally till he was 3 then put him in an orphanage where he was then bullied, beat, poisoned, ( By what little amount of food they did feed him. Food poisoning, not cyanide or some other super strong poison. Just food poisoning.) and malnourished him.
They kicked him out on his 4th birthday. And he has lived alone on the streets ever since, searching through garbage cans for food whenever he could. His clothes consisted of rags till his 7th birthday when the Hokage bought him that sorry excuse for an outfit which consisted of a 'kill me' orange jumpsuit. The day he started wearing that outfit the villages hatred for him when't up 10% at least.
Today was the day before he started at the Ninja Academy, and most of the villagers decided they would have none of that so they got together in a small group consisting of around twenty people who had no surviving relatives and had lost someone in the Kyuubi attack which had happened 8 years prior. And civilians had come up with a plan to finally eradicate the 'Demon brat'. Naruto was walking done the street which little to no one on it, which wasn't surprising considering this was one of the more heavily hit places in the Kyuubi attack, and it was close to our favorite jinchurikis dinky little apartment which he had just received from the Third Hokage this morning.
He was about half a mile from his apartment when he heard the sounds of a large mob headed his way, he starts running towards his apartment hoping he can make it in time. He gets to around a quarter of a mile from his apartment when the mob finally catches sight of Naruto, who turns down an alley to make a quick escape but finds that it is a dead turns back around trying to get out of the alley but the mob blocks the exit.
"Kill the demon brat!" The leader of the mob (A women who looked to be in her late forties with dark brown hair and brown eyes wielding a rusty pitchfork) screamed. Four men surround Naruto in the small alleyway, the one on his right a burly looking brunette punches him in the face. He crashes into the ground at the feet of a man who was slim and tall with dark red hair and glasses, the rears back his left foot and kicks him square in the cheek sending him careening into a pile of tin trash cans. A medium built woman walks up and picks him out of the trash and stabs him in the shoulder with a small kitchen knife she had been carrying.
"Aaaahhhh!" scream Naruto in pain. The woman twists the knife then wrenches it out of his shoulder, Naruto screams again. Then the burly brunette comes up behind Naruto grabs his hair and smashes his face in the brick wall. Naruto slumps down on the ground unconscious with his face still touching the wall.
(Outside the alley) A man standing at about 6'2" wearing a black trench-coat with sunrise orange trim, a pair of black cargo pants, and a orange muscle shirt which fit him quite snugly. He had long blond hair (Picture Madaras hair but only to his shoulder blades and Narutos hair color) and blue-green eyes. He has a large sword on his back (Zabuzas but a teensy bit smaller)
"AAAAHHHH" He hears the scream and looks down the alley, his eyes widen when he sees a mob standing there. He rushes forward and pushes his way through the mob and when he gets through and sees whats happening he almost empties the contents of his stomach, he sees a kid who cant be older then 9 covered with bruises, his right forearm is broken, both his legs are broken, his eyes are swollen shut, blood is pouring out of cuts across his body, and he is laying in a massive pool of his own blood. The man takes half a second to observe the scene then leaps into action. He draws his sword and swings it at the women with the knifes arm that is holding said knife.
"Ahhhhmmph" the women screams then is punched into the wall leaving a indent. The other three guys see what happened and turn on the man. The man stabs his sword into the ground and runs at the three men. He punches the burly man in the stomach then uses his hands to smash his right knee into the mans nose lodging it in his brain. The slim man comes forward and wraps his arms around the man, as the third a guy a black haired portly man comes in front of our jinchurikis savior and goes to punch him in the face. The man ducks and rolls away as the portly man punches his partner in the face knocking him down while he holds his nose. The man then roundhouse kicks the portly man into the same brick wall as the lady smashing his head through the wall from the force of the kick, effectively killing him.
"Three down, one to go" says our protagonists savior. He looks towards the lanky man and appears in front of him and picks him up by the throat.
"Why are you beating this poor kid!" the man asks while squeezing the mans throat tighter.
"Because he is the Kyuubi reborn and we need to finish what the Fourth started" the lanky man wheezes out.
"Wrong answer" the man says angrily and walks over to his sword still carrying the man and lifts his sword from the ground, now holding the sword in his right and the man in his left he tosses the man into the air and grabs the sword in both hands then slices in a wide arc towards the man. A blade of chakra rushes out of his blade and goes through the man which bisects the man down the middle, both parts fall on either side of our unknown hero. Then the Hokage shows up with a squad of ANBU surrounding the man.
"Whats going on here" the Hokage barks.
"I was just saving this kid from being murder by this mob" the man responds coolly. Thats when the Hokage finally notices Naruto laying in a ever growing pool of his own blood.
"Naruto!" the Hokage rushes over grabs Naruto and disappears in a swirl of leaves, the ANBU start shackling the terrified civilians for questioning. The man then starts making his way to the Hokages office since the old man would probably want to speak with him about the events that occurred.
