DISCLAIMER: i do not own Naruto or any of it's associated content. What i do own are my own original characthers and the cliche quasi original plot.

Now that that's done with, here is the author's note:

Well im taking a little break with Kamikaze. I've been working on it and i came to a part that's a real bitch to write, so im procrastinating a little. IM LAZY, SUE ME. To be honest I kinda got back into Naruto lately and i had this idea. It's gonna be slightly owerpowered Naruto, but he will work for his strength, I plan on giving him a ton of sick jutsu and if you think kamikaze has action then think again. :) although I must say it'll take a while to get to any killing

A three year old child with blonde sun kissed hair and cerulean blue eyes was sitting on the marble floor, he was in a humongous room. Behind him was the way he entered this place and in front of him there was a great steel gate. The child was currently looking around the room with wide eyes. A few moments before he entered this room he was walking through a sewer with dripping pipes everywhere. Strangely, he wasn't wet at all. He shook his head, removing unimportant thoughts and focusing on the task at hand. Figuring out where he was.

He stood up slowly and started walking towards the cage. Just as he was about to reach out with his hand and touch one of the bars, a red shining light blinded him. He yelped and fell back on his behind. After a few moments he opened his eyes.

The whole room was basked in a soft red glow which was coming from inside the cage. The boy raised his head and noticed two extremely large eyes amidst the sea of red. Suddenly a hyena like laugh broke out and in front of the boy's eyes a large set of jagged teeth appeared apparently in a smiling position. The boy quickly stood up and ran away from the cage until he was near the exit. Then he turned around and took another look. The teeth were gone and the eyes changed to slits. The boy, Naruto was his name, took a deep breath and yelled across the hall.

"Hi red eyes."

The Beast's eyes widened for a fraction of a second.

"Hello ningen." Said a deep rumbling voice.

Naruto sat down. His face scrunched up in a thinking position. All of a sudden he shot out.

"Hey! My name's Naruto, what's yours?"

"Kurama" Answered the beast while again grinning.

The child's face again scrunched up in concentration. "Where are we, what is this place? Do you know."

"This is my prison, we are inside your mind child." Answered the fox.

"Ahha." Hummed Naruto while scratching his head. "How did i get here?"

The foxes smile dissappeared again. "You must have fallen asleep and by chance appeared here."

The boy nodded vigorously, making his hair fly around. "Yeah i remember that, the moon was really bright so it was hard to get to sleep." He paused for a second looking at the floor. Slowly he raised his head and looked the beast right in it's eyes. "Kurama? Why do people hate me?"

The beast blinked. "They are blind and don't see you for what you are."

Naruto blinked dumbly. "But they can see alright, I've never seen them bump into something. And they see me fine or they couldn't glare at me and say mean things." Said the child slightly confused.

Kurama blinked, quickly remembering that he was talking to a three year old child.

"They hate you because the yondaime sealed the nine-tailed fox in you." Sometimes it was best to be blunt.

Naruto's eyes bulged out. He looked at the floor again. He stayed like that for about two minutes before speaking again. "Why did you attack the village and where did you come from?"

Kyuubi growled slightly making Naruto jump a bit. "When i attacked the village I was enraged at being forcefully ejected from my previous owner. It hurt like a bitch and I couldn't really think straight. And before I was sealed into you I was sealed into one Uzumaki Kushina." Finished Kurama.

Naruto quickly shot out. "Uzumaki?!"

The fox nodded. "Your mother."

Just as Naruto was about to ask more questions he saw a flash of white.

OoOooOoOoOooOoOoOOooO

Naruto sat up quickly, the memory of his mother and the fox still fresh in his mind.

He covered his eyes with his hands. Just like any other morning the light from outside his window blinded and woke him.

He thought for a bit about what he learned then he jumped off the bed and got dressed.

He lived alone. It was strange for a three year old but it was necessary. No orphanage or family wanted him. That made the child sad, but he got over it soon. Like all children he had a young mind which healed easily with right care. And the right care for Naruto was administered by his adopted grandfather Sarutobi Hiruzen. The current Hokage. The hokage frequently sent over ninja that were neutral to Naruto to make him meals and ocassionaly clean his apartment. The Hokage also visited frequently. And today was supposed to be one of his regular visits. He normaly appeared around ten in the morning so Naruto still had some time to prepare.

After brushing his teeth, he entered the kitchen and walked to the fridge. He opened it and pulled out a plate of rice balls. They were made by Neko-chan. Neko was a girl with purple hair and a cat mask. She was most often on Naruto's cooking duty. What Naruto didn't know was that Neko was part of the squad that shadowed Naruto 24/7 and kept him safe. Neko played with him sometimes. Yes, Neko was really cool in Naruto's mind.

Naruto put the plate on the table and walked back to the fridge. He pulled out a carton of orange juice and closed the fridge. Then he took a washed glass off the low counter and put it on the table. He sat down and started eating. When he was on his fourth rice ball the door bell rang.

Naruto jumped off the chair and ran to the door. He quickly opened it. "Hi gramps!"

The old wizened Hokage looked down at the boy. "Hello Naruto, fine morning is it not? May I come in?"

Naruto opened the door all the way and gestured the Hokage to enter. He closed the door and led the old man to the kitchen table where they both sat down. Naruto grabbed the last rice ball off the plate and started eating. Sarutobi watched him for a few moments before reaching inside his robe and removing a paper envelope. "This is your weekly allowance Naruto." He set the envelope on the table. Naruto swallowed. "Thanks Jiji!"

The Hokage smiled. "So how have you been Naruto?"

The child's face went blank and he looked down at the table. "I met Kyuubi."

That single short sentence made Sarutobi lose his cool. "You've met him." He took out his pipe. "I guess you found out quite a bit from that."

Naruto nodded. "He told me he was sealed inside me by the yondaime." Naruto slightly raised his voice. "Why didn't you tell me?"

Sarutobi sighed. "I was planning on telling you when you were older. Honestly you're just a child. I wanted you to have a bit of a childhood before finding out you have a demon inside you."

Naruto looked down. "Well that didn't work out all that good. Almost everyone hates me, I don't even have friends."

Sarutobi started filling up his pipe. "Naruto, I made a law and passed it by the council. The younger generation, the children do not know about Kyuubi. You'll be able to have friends."

Naruto disagreed. "Their parents tell the kids I'm bad. I heard them saying that I'm dangerous."

The Hokage finaly lit his pipe and inhaled. He slowly let out the smoke through his nostrils. "Maybe it will be different, when they learn to think for themselves."

Naruto slowly nodded, a sad expression on his face. "Maybe."

Naruto stayed silent for a few moments. "The fox told me about my mother."

Sarutobi's eyes widened. "I see."

Naruto continued. "He told me her name was Uzumaki Kushina, did you know her?"

The third nodded wisely. "She was one of my best shinobi."

Naruto nodded. "Could you...could you tell me about her?"

Sarutobi smiled. "Sure Naruto." Sarutobi puffed on his pipe for a second before starting.

"She was born in Uzushiogakure, the hidden whirlpool village. It was a village much like ours, full of ninjas. She was born inside one particular clan. The Uzumaki clan. The Uzumaki's were always know for their above average chakra amounts and longevity of life. A lot of them also practiced the obscure art of sealing."

At this Naruto looked at his stomach, then back at the Hokage.

The third continued. "Sadly they were all but erased with the fall of Uzushiogakure in the second great war. Only a few lived and they all scattered across the world. One of them was your mother. She came to Konoha before the war when she was just a child. She enrolled into the academy when she was old enough and became a ninja. Soon after she had the Kyuubi sealed into her. The Uzumaki's blood is special. It helps keep back the power of the bijuu, and that is why also the beast was sealed inside you."

Naruto nodded absentmindedly, too engrossed in the story of his mother.

Sarutobi paused to take a toke of his pipe. He inhaled and then slowly exhaled.

"She became a ninja soon after the sealing. She was strong and her enemies gave her a name. The bloody hot habanero. She was a redhead and hotheaded at that. Soon after she went on a mission with her team and another newly promoted jounin. If not for the jounin they would have all died in an ambush. Later that jounin and her became good friends, then lovers and then they had you Naruto.

Naruto nodded then adopted a confused expression. "What was the jounin's name? I mean what was my father's name?"

Sarutobi adopted a serious look. "Naruto you must promise me not to tell anyone what i just tell you."

The child's eyes widened. "Why?"

The third looked away, then back at the tiny blonde. "Your father had enemies, and should word come out that you are his son I may have a hard time protecting you. To be honest I didnt plan on telling you until you were much much older, but I think it should be fine as long as you keep your word. Do you promise?"

Naruto nodded frantically.

Sarutobi nodded sagely to himself. "Good. Well i guess I should get to the point. Your father's name was Namikaze Minato. But you probably know him better under a different title. The fourth Hokage."

Naruto was shocked. The man who sealed Kurama inside him was his own father.

The two sat in silence for a few minutes.

"Jii-san. I want to be a shinobi like my parents."

The hokage nodded. "You will be enrolled into the academy when you're 8."

Naruto shook his head left and right. "I want to learn now!"

Sarutobi smiled. "Well if you promise to listen and learn like a good boy."

Naruto nearly jumped out of his chair. "I do, I do!"

The wizened old man laughed at the childish enthusiasm.

"I will visit you every week like normal and teach you how to be a shinobi from now on. I will also tell young Yugao to answer any question you might have. She might even teach you something if you ask nicely."

Naruto nodded and looked a bit apprehensive when Yugao was mentioned. "Who is this Yugao you're talking about."

The Hokage smiled. "Oh I think you know her very well. I think you call her Neko-chan.

At this Naruto smiled widely. "Neko-chan? I love Neko-chan, she likes to play with me and she makes great ramen!"

The third laughed loudly. "Good, then we have an agreement."

Naruto nodded enthused while the third stood up. "I have to go now Naruto, I'll try to come back soon. Oh and I'll send Neko-chan your way later."

Naruto looked a bit sad at the fact the old man was leaving, but he cheered up fast at the mention of his favourite cat anbu. "Ok gramps, have fun.

"You too Naruto." Said Sarutobi and left with one last wave.

Naruto closed the door.

Well all i can say now is review and tell me what you think.
