AN: ok I had a revelation that led to the idea for this new story. I thought it sounded cool, but we'll see, right? Anyways sorry to the people who like the more epic sounding Japanese attacks, but I don't know where to find the words and I'm going to use A LOT of original attacks, or at least original as far as I know. And yes, I'm going to warp the fabric of reality. Gaara is now Naruto's brother and the one the Kyuubi's sealed inside. Now, now read the prologue here and you'll see Naruto's still far more epic. Oh also, Kami's a girl.
I do not, repeat, DO NOT own Naruto and am not in any way affiliated with the show's creators. On with the show... no, really.
Legends from the roots of the ninja nations spoke of the powerful Kami, and all her abilities and of a devil with no name. Wars between the two invoked many angers, but like many creatures, the two fell to temptation. From their union were birthed two powerful brothers: the son with nine tails and the son with ten wings. For several years the two inspired peace between heaven and hell.
However, as is the way with devils, their father sought more power and believed through their sons he could obtain it. The son with ten wings was a peaceful creature and the father found it ironic he should have more power than his brother. The son with nine tails, however, was easily talked into his father's ideals, being a creature of war.
The son with nine tails began to destroy villages of the ninja nations, feasting upon the chakra of the dieing. It was not long before Kami heard the screams of the vanquished souls. Despairingly, she called upon the more tame brother to stop his siblings madness. The son with ten wings rose at the sound of his mother's despair and his roar was heard around the world.
He called unto his mother, "Mother, what is it that my brother has done that hurts you so?" Kami unveiled the story of the brother's power craze and the son with ten wings cried, "Alas, my brother beckons destruction, I cannot stop his as I am unnamed, will you bestow upon me a title to stop my reckless brother. Kami granted the request, "Unto you I bestow the title dragon king."
The newly crowned dragon king took to the skies to find his brother. Rumors, alas, travels faster than the fastest creature and the father heard of the titled king and in fear ran to the son with nine tails. "My son," he said, "your brother is now a king from heaven to destroy you, but to combat this I name you the Kyuubi, the nine tailed fox, and you will be lord of nightmares."
The Kyuubi grinned devilishly at his father, "Now I need you not." he said as he cut his father down, banishing him back to hell. With no master, the Kyuubi continued laying waste to the villages. Overconfidence drove him to a larger target: Konoha. It was here the dragon king finally caught up to his brother...
The Kyuubi stood towering over the forest outside of the village of Konoha. He saw the ninja charging toward him and laughed, "Fools there is not one among you that can defeat me," his ears caught a ninja yelling to hold him off until the fourth hokage arrived, "Yes bring forth your best warriors, feed me your chakra!" He flicked one of his tails sending out a gale.
He heard bones break as ninja were thrown into trees. Exploding tags blew up around his forepaws and he scowled, "Persistent pests aren't you, very well I'll kill you all. I AM THE KYUUBI, LORD OF YOUR NIGHTMARES, NOW TREMBLE!!!!" He brought a paw up.
A clawed forepaw wrapped around the "wrist" of his forepaw. The Kyuubi grinned, "About time you caught up, you always were slow." he said as he followed the scaled, hand-like paw into its scaled foreleg and into the giant crimson dragon with ten wings. The piercing blue eyes with oval pupils of the dragon king glared into the slitted, green ones of his brother, "Mother is very disappointed, my brother." he said quietly.
The ninja retreated away from the titans and the Kyuubi sighed, "Oh, you ruined my fun," he looked back at his brother, "and look at you, a king now." He broke free of his brother's grip and jumped back several feet, "Let's see how well you fight." He charged.
The dragon king waited and then reared his head and brought his jaw down on his brother's head. The Kyuubi fell and the dragon king placed his paw on the back of his neck. Angered, the Kyuubi smacked his brother with a tail. The dragon king released him, surprised.
The Kyuubi charged again and the brothers began a sea-saw battle. Back and forth through the forest they fought. Soon both were panting heavily. The Kyuubi dropped into a crouch and prepared to charge again. With a loud BANG! a third titan appeared in the forest: a giant toad with a pipe, jacket, and large sword.
Both brothers recognized Gambunta on sight, but the person on his head was foreign to them. In a white jacked and blue pants, a blonde-haired man with a leaf village headband stood between two bundles of blankets. Minato Kazama, fourth hokage of the village hidden in the leaves, stood before the quarrelling brothers, determination etched into his face.
The Kyuubi looked at the newcomer and chuckled, "Is this the best this village can offer? How pathetic." The dragon king stood silent. For several tense moments Minato and the dragon king's gazes locked. The dragon king gave a nod, which the hokage returned.
Rain began to fall and the dragon king looked to the sky, "Mother cries, brother with nine tails, for this is where it ends." The Kyuubi stared at his brother, "And what does that mean?" he asked. A flare of chakra and blue light answered him as the fourth hokage flashed hand seals. Recognizing the forbidden technique he smiled, "He can't possibly think that will work, I'm not going to stand still for him."
A heavy shove of the dragon king's paw sent the Kyuubi to the ground. He placed both paws on his brother's back and pushed down. He snatched the fur on the back of the Kyuubi's neck in his jaws and hoisted his head into the air. Through the fur and flowing blood the dragon king snarled, "You will be sitting still."
Fear spread across the Kyuubi's face, "No no NO, YOU CAN'T DO THIS!!" he tried in vain to escape his brother. The dragon king only bit deeper into his neck, "I will do what I must to stop you." Lightning struck the air in a searing light, followed by the crash of thunder.
The final hand seal came to the hokage's hands and the brothers' uncle, the Shinigami rose up behind the hokage. His hand reached out and into the Kyuubi. The Kyuubi cried out in pain as the hand passed through him and into the dragon king's body. Both fell limp as the Shinigami's hand dragged their souls out.
The bodies vanished from existence as the souls were pulled free. With a flick of his wrist, the Shinigami tossed the souls into blanket bundles. With a heaving sigh, the Shinigami reached out and took hold of the hokage's soul and took him into death.
Gambunta vanished with the hokage's death. The ninja went to the area to search for their beloved hokage and found his dead body clutching two baby boys to him. The ninja flinched back as they saw the forbidden seals on the two boy's stomachs. All, but one, the old man Sarutobi, the third hokage.
He took the two boys in his arms as the other ninja retrieved Minato's body. The battle ended, the ninja made their way back to the village of Konoha, the village hidden in the leaves.
Kami watched the procession march off and cried harder for her dead yet undead sons. She knew they weren't gone, but she had been able to do nothing to help them. Her eyes looked to their infant prisons and smiled slightly.
