Naruto The Yellow string Of Fate
This story is created with a BIG help of the author : dracohalo117 , check his stories out by the way they are awesome ^^
It was the night before Mother's day and a 4 year old Naruto was sitting on a bench not so far away from school but far away from the people of the Village who hated him.
He looked up in the sky , it was a beautiful night the moon shined bright the stars were in harmony with it , it was simply eye-stunning , he couldn't look away .
Even thought it was beautiful to him he was having one thought on his mind.
' They are always together as a family , never alone always smiling in a way that they are shining so bright , they seem so close , never alone.' Thought Naruto who was thinking about the last words.
' Never alone .' Thought Naruto who sadden his eyes even more than before as he thinks about the moments he come comes home in an empty house , he didn't have a family , he didn't have people who cared about him and everyone hated him , i-it was just sad .
Once Naruto began to think further and further about the things a family normally would do ; Eating together , celebrating their birthdays smiling together , he sees many families doing such things and it honestly hurt him , he just wanted to die although he can't , every time when he cuts himself he heals on his arms immediately so after a time he gave up and decided to be killed by the Villagers who hated him so he always caused trouble for them so after a while they would always chase him around the Village but strangely enough they were always stopped by an unknown force.
He doesn't know what the Force was , was it an angel to protect him or a devil that is a sadist and wants him to commit suicide.
But right now Naruto just shrugged it off and decide to go to bed and not to cry tonight because he realized he had something he would never have or could have : A mother's love.
Naruto was wandering on the street but strangely enough the people on the street were looking at him more hateful and killing intent , Naruto didn't know why until he reminded himself what day it was.
' Of course many people have lost their parents on the say that the Kyuubi died which is my birthday including mother's I guess I am the scapegoat although I wonder why , maybe this is the day I am going to be killed and maybe die in peace , who am I kidding I can't die in peace not anyone will miss me or anything but at least it's going to end , this torture , it's going to end , tonight.
So Naruto wanders through the street longer until nightfall on purpose until :
" HEY IT'S THAT DEMON BRAT WHY DON'T WE AVENGE OUR MOTHERS BY KILLING HIM." Said a civilian which everyone nodded and yelled : " GET HIM."
' Good , they are following me , I can let them kill me on the street but that isn't going to be a death which I deserve , I must be killed , alone in the dark and not on the street lights from houses of families.'
So Naruto started to run in a dark corner which reminds him of the first beating he got from the civilians long ago.
After a few minutes
" HA , WE GOT YOU CORNED, YOU DEMON BRAT , PREPARE TO DIE." Yelled the leader of the group
And so Naruto was standing by the wall and closes his eyes waiting for the pain and after that death and so relief , relief of everything that makes him sad but mostly :
' I am not going to be alone anymore soon I will join the stars from above.' Thougth Naruto
" Mother , Father , I am coming." Said Naruto hoping they would hear him
" PARENTS , YOU DON'T EVEN DESERVE THEM WHY DON'T YOU JUST DIE AND BURN IN HELL." Hears Naruto because he closed his eyes
" Not today ."
" WAIT WHAT ?"
" OH NO NOT YOU!"
" P-PLEASE , PLEASE SPARE MY LIFE , NOo W-Wai."
"I –I am so-rryy , I am not going to do it ag-."
" I-I am so-"
Naruto opens his eyes as he sees at least ten civilians on the ground , he stared at them in shock , they didn't move.
" Are they dead ?" asked Naruto hoping there might be an answer
" No they aren't I just knocked them down on a painful way while I cast a genjutsu on them before I did , that's why they were fearing me , they thought I killed them." Said a voice
Naruto turned around and saw : A tall man with a mask a fox one If you might add so he was probably ANBU , with a black cloak which was open like Anko's style because you also could see a fishnet and he had black pants on but you couldn't see any hair as it was covered with a cloth behind it.
As the man came to Naruto , Naruto stood still not in fear but in awaiting why he knocked the civilians out while they were trying to kill him .
' Is he trying to take take the honor of killing me ?' thought Naruto with a dull expression on his face
As the man stood silent because he stood right in front of Naruto and asked : " Why ?"
" What , why ?" asked Naruto making the man quiet until.
" Why did you let them trap you and almost kill you because I know why you picked this place to die but why do you want to die so bad?" asked the man around the 30's with a calm but serious voice.
Naruto was unfazed and answered honestly : " I am born alone and I will die alone."
After a few seconds the man thought : ' His eyes are just like his , empty and sad not a single gleam of hope or happiness , it's like they are twins on that aspect.' While he sighed and comes closer to Naruto while grabbing his hand and saying.
" You are coming with me and no buts ." said the man surprising Naruto wondering where the man is dragging him into
And surprisingly, while they were walking , Naruto expected to have hateful looks on the street but he sees something else in their eyes : Fear.
' Who is this man if he is so feared even the shinobis aren't even looking at me hatefully but now , they fear me well the man actually but still I wonder who he is .' Thought Naruto while he wondered where they were going until the man spoke up.
" We are heading to the Hokage's office , to your grandpa grandpa ." said Fox surprising Naruto with his eyes wide open.
' W-wait h-how did he know I call the Hokage that ?' asked Naruto in his head until Fox answered like he was reading his mind.
" Don't worry everything Is going to be explained to you when we arrive." Said Fox earns a nod from Naruto who just shrugged it off to ask even more questions.
At the Hokage's office.
Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed at two things that worries him everyday even more ; One his paper work which kills him and two : Naruto.
He has seen Naruto as his own grandchild but poorly enough he can't help him as it show favoritism for the Villagers although he deserves it , but poorly enough no one wanted to help him of fear , it was pathetic and unfair but he was Hokage not a Dictator and forces to change their opinion about Naruto no matter what.
No one knows the real truth of the Sealing so everyone treats him as a demon .
" I honestly hope someone can take him in and raise him because this is just too cruel and I don't want any child's experience any child to experience his life." As he sighed until the devil himself showed up with someone : unusual.
" What brings you here , Fox and why bring Naruto ?" Asked Hiruzen surprised at the antics of the man.
To be honest the man has been a mystery since day one : He didn't talk except for mission reports , he didn't associate with anyone and was so cold as ice and would normally do his job perfectly so it was surprising him that he would bring Naruto with him into the office.
" This little one here , trapped himself in the alley way on purpose." Said the fox while he gestured to Naruto who looked down and answered .
" J-Just because I am sick of it ." said Naruto
" Of what ?" asked Hiruzen with an understanding voice although he had a guess
" From being lonely I-I hate it , it's like I didn't even meant to be born l-look which day it is , it is mother's day but who do I have to celebrate with or at least give a gift to ." said Naruto while both males were looking at Naruto eyes which made them think.
' His eyes are just the same as HIS … .' Thought the Fox ANBU who started even to think even deeper in his memories for an unknown reason.
The Third thought : ' Naruto must be really sad now on this day it strikes him harder even more than normal , he doesn't have parents to share a life with him , he is alone and doesn't have anyone to help …' while he was also thinking further and further …. Until both of them widen their eyes while looking at Naruto giving him the creeps .
" Ok Hiruzen that's it , I am going to take care of Naruto and don't even dare to complain about it , he is going to be supervised under me and becomes the next Kage of Kages ( Shadows of Shadows)." Surprising Hiruzen who thought.
' I-I have never seen him before talking so much than this whole day compared to the last 30 years I spend with him , he doesn't even talk except for missions and now he is talking like no tomorrow and even further , why does he wants to train Naruto , even the Uchiha or Hyuuga didn't even get a lesson from him even if he had many marriage proposals of the whole country as he is my strongest ninja b-but why does he wants to train someone who doesn't even have a bloodline or any experience .'
' Well whatever the reason is , it must be deep because he was always someone who takes the right decisions , unlike me who has taken Orochimaru as his pupil.' Thought Hiruzen while sighing at the many failures he make if he compared himself to the mysterious man than he himself was dumb and weak , so skilled is that man .' While he rubbed the sides of his head and answered.
" Alright I am going to let you adopt Naruto as I was hoping to ask for you and let you train him however you want although you must send me messages because I have a feeling you are going to train outside of the Village ." said Hiruzen with a serious tone but ended with a smirk.
" Not yet old man although how did you know I was planning to ?" asked the Fox surprised while the Third gave a chuckle and answered.
" Because I know how secretive you are with your lessons , you have never taught someone anything ever before not even if almost every parent or ninja asked for it , with money woman , everything and I know that your skills are labeled as SS – rank even further but if other ninjas or even worse ninjas from this Village are trying to copy your techniques than I have a feeling it would turn out in the worse." Said the Hokage with a sigh while thinking : ' Naruto grow up fast , I REALLY WANT TO STOP WITH THIS FREAKING PAPER WORK!'
" Don't worry , I will just torture huh I mean " train " him properly ." said Fox while he placed a hand on Naruto who was shivering in fear while thinking.
' I have no idea WHAT they are talking about but that ANBU gives me the creeps although he isn't a bad person. ' Thought Naruto who was looking up to the man as he was shorter than him .
And the man stared back for a few minutes until they hear scribbling down papers and a second later he said.
" It's Done , Naruto from now on you are Fox his son , Fox what do you want to call Naruto as you both are going on a journey so you both need code names for being safe ?" said Hiruzen wondering what kind of Code name he would give Naruto .
" Let's see , I want him to heritage my name as FOX but for now he would be called , hum how about Kurama is that close enough ?" asked the male making someone laugh although it wasn't neither of the people in the room it was like it came , from his stomach ?
' W-wait what was that ?' Thought Naruto in surprise earning two glares of two men .
" Everything alright Naruto ?" asked the Third worries making Naruto surprised while answering .
Naruto was nervous and wanted to go away so fast as possible as he was still confused what they were talking about " N-No nothing at all , I – I better get home , thanks for letting me in though." Said Naruto as he grabbed the doorknob but was held back as he felt a hand on his shoulder and turned around and saw that it was the Fox ANBU Fox.
" Where are you going young man ?" With a fatherly tone
" Hum , home ?" said Naruto confused why he stopped him
" Oh no, you are going with me because from now on we are family ." said Fox surprising Naruto even more as he looked in disbelief but was answered by the Hokage.
" It's true Naruto from now on Fox here is your adoptive father ." said the Hokage with a smirk
Naruto was even more staring in disbelief and answered : " Wh-what do you mean , no one wants me , I-I just bring trouble." With a sad voice as he thought it was all a joke just to bully him
" This isn't a joke Naruto , Fox here has adopted you and from now on he is your father or didn't you listen what we said ?" asked Hiruzen with a smile because he knows the answer
" S-sorry." Said Naruto making both man chuckle
"Don't worry it's alright also don't worry about the civilians , Fox here is the strongest Ninja we have or better said the whole national country so I think you will get respect of everyone as his son." Said the Hokage with a giant smirk because he knows that from now on Naruto is going to be respecting the way he deserved since birth.
" Ok Fox you better go home with Naruto and let him settle in your home as it is also Naruto's ." said Hiruzen still smiling at the new father and son pair.
Fox nodded and said : " Ok let's go Naruto time to show you your new home ." while he gestured Naruto should follow him but before he could Naruto turned to the Hokage and said.
" T-thanks for always caring about me grandpa I-I know how much you always took care of me although you were forbidden to , every time when I fell unconscious I always ended up in your house , I-I am grateful you spend time with me as your own grandson y-you were the only one who loved me instead of hating me , thank you for everything I-I own you my life multiple times if there is something you need j-just ask although I know I may be not so much of use now but someday I will repay the debt." Said Naruto surprising The Hokage even more as growing even more prouder on him.
" Don't say that Naruto I must be grateful to you , thank you for listening to my stories when we were talking and thank you for keeping this old man company , I am in debt with you and if so than you don't need to do anything for this old man except grow up well into a fine shinobi that is all I am asking for and find someone you can love with all your heart and if so please invite me to your wedding." Said the Hokage with a giant smile as he looked at his almost related to everything but blood grandson who was blushing but quickly he realized what he meant with all those words.
Naruto could just cry as he felt one thing he always felt with this old man ; happiness , nothing less and much more.
Fox could just watch the scene with a smile on his face although no one could see his expression on his face with his mask but he felt something he didn't felt in a long time in his heart : Warmth , and he had a feeling he would have this feeling more and more with this kid .
" We better get going Naruto or should I say sochi ( son) ?" said Fox with a playful voice surprising the Hokage even more.
" I never thought that you would be acting so much … carefree." Said Hiruzen surprised
" Well I guess I am in my spirits today ." said Fox playfully
" Maybe , anyways take care of Naruto otherwise I am going to use a genjutsu which locks you up togheter with Maito Guy for a year in one room." Said Hiruzen making Fox shiver
" Please don't that is every Ninja worst nightmare." Said Fox in a scarred way
" Exactly , take care Naruto and become a great Ninja oh and at least name on of you children after me." Said Hiruzen making Naruto red and yelled.
" G-grandpa ."
" Just kidding kid don't worry."
" I-I will ." said Naruto making Hiruzen widen his eyes
" I will name the child after you , it's a promise." Said Naruto making Fox surprised but Hiruzen widen his eyes even more.
" You don't have to do that and if the time comes I bet you are going to forget it anyways and besides who wants my name anyways it has to do with Monkey King ." said Hiruzen who regain himself yet with a sad look in his eyes as he was believing it for a second there.
" I don't go back on my word , no matter what !" yelled Naruto surprising Hiruzen even more as Fox who could just chuckle at the kid.
" I am NEVER going to forget you kindness and as a thanks I am going to name my first child Hiruzen after his great grandfather who was like a real parent to me." Naruto who bowed and leaved the room as he knows he will do It and that's it.
After that Fox followed and closes the door but before that he said as he turned his head to the Third : " He wasn't lying I could see that with my own eyes and I bet he is never going to forget it also , you have one hell of a grandchild haven't you , oh well he is my son now also and I guess he is going to be a handful but I think he is worth it , he is going to be a strong ninja , the strongest of him all a Kage of a Kage." Said Fox who closes the door while following Naruto who was already walking on the street while Fox was thinking about what he is going to plan with Naruto with a chuckle .
But unknown for both of them they leaved a Hiruzen who still froze in his chair with his eyes wide open until …. A tear fell from his cheek and suddenly it followed with many until he wiped it off his sleeve and said.
" Y-You don't know how happy you make this old man with that one phrase , Naruto may a bright future shine down on you from now on and do things I never could because I believe you can and going to influence the whole nation , be strong Naruto : The Next Kage of Kage or better said my grandson ." while he was smiling with his eyes closed at the door which they left with still tears in his eyes as he felt nothing like this before ; so glad , glad that he didn't make a mistake with taking him as his grandson it was the best choice he ever made and it is only going to become better and better.
After a few minutes the Hokage was empty of his tears but not of his smile as he decided to work on the thing he hated the most : his paper work but now it was more pleasant even nice , he had a feeling his paperwork is going to be more joyful with that on his mind and started to work with a giant smile on his face.
' I look forward to the day you are going to have your son , Naruto my grandson.' Thought Hiruzen he had a feeling this is going to be the last time in years he is going to see Naruto for a long time.
With Naruto and Fox
Once Fox caught Naruto he led the way to his house.
" Ok here we are Naruto , this is your new home." Said Fox while Naruto was looking in front of him looking at his new home.
It was a simple home with a black and white interior like it was in the balance of each other not too less but not too much either.
" Follow me." Said Fox while he walked till he stopped at the door which had a white circle in the center and said.
" Give me your hand ." With a calm voice as Naruto did wonder why
But then he felt something that drips of his body quiet often but now more gently as it wasn't meant to harm him : his blood .
Fox placed the bleeding thump at the center of the door with a strange seal on it in the center of the white circle with kanji that said : Locked.
But after Fox used his kunai to let his thumb bleed also the Kanji that said : Lock was now written : Unlock as the white circle instantly got a black side with a white point on the black side and a black point at the white side.
The door disappeared like it has never been there , Fox gestured they should both go in.
Once Naruto stepped inside he was surprised : The whole house was filled with Black and white but here also were the colors in balance , the walls were painted in black and white stripes and with a strange symbol between it like on the door.
As Naruto looked around he saw the furniture also the same way : black and white in harmony.
It was beautiful actually .
But there was one thing that appeared everywhere except the black and white : the strange symbol.
" Hum , Fox ( as he remembered the Third is calling him so) is this symbol that is placed almost everywhere in the room ?" Asked Naruto wondering as he noticed the carpet was the same ; black and white with that strange symbol.
Fox chuckled and answered : " This symbol is called : Ying and Yang , Yang is the positive energy in the world while Ying is the opposite of everything what Yang represents ."
" Take like Yang is love well than is Ying hate." Making Naruto surprised about the artistic sense of his new teacher.
" Ying needs Yang as Yang needs Ying that is how the circle of life goes , if there is a bad guy then there is always a hero , if there is a sickness than there is an antidote , we need darkness as we sleep as we need daylight to live our lives it's how harmony exist Naruto and the Ying and Yang tells it perfectly with just a picture of it " said Fox who chuckled at his new son.
Naruto yawned because he was tired as Fox chuckled again and answered : " Is my explanation that boring ?" With a teasing voice
Naruto just shook his head violently as he didn't want his new father to hate him already.
Fox saw it easily and answered : " You don't need to be so tense Naruto we are family now so be honest with me as you do with the Hokage , are you tired ?" Asked Fox in a caring fatherly voice
" Y-Yes I am Fox I-I just am tired that's all b-because things happened so fast and it kind of tires me ." said Naruto who was almost drowning in his sleep .
" Good than change into the pajamas I put ready for you so you can sleep oh and I will show you your room." Said Fox while he gave a pure black pajama clothing with the Ying and Yang symbol on the back on it.
After Naruto was done changing Fox thought : ' Yep he looks like him even in those clothes ' while gestured to follow him until he said.
" Here is it , your new room." While he opened it.
Naruto looked around the room , it was simple but also very beautiful .
The room here was in harmony also with black and white and even though it was dark you could see the colors shining in the moonlight while Naruto wondered how it should look with sunlight and the bed was in black and white also with a Ying and Yang symbol on the sheets .
" Is it ok because if you want you can take my room and I just sleep here , this room is where the sunlight and moonlight shines down very brightly ." Explained Fox why it there was a beautiful light in the room.
" I-It's more than ok , i-it's perfect ." said Naruto while he gave Fox a smile making him chuckle even more.
" That's good , well good night Naruto." Said Fox while he closes the door until..
" G-Goodnight … dad. " said Naruto with a stuttering voice while he held tears back as it seemed like someone was going to look out for him like a real father.
" Goodnight son." Said Fox who was chuckling even more and more while Naruto had a feeling he smiled as Naruto smiled back and decided to cover himself in his sheets.
Fox closed the door and tried to calm himself from the chuckles while saying to himself : " You have no idea how that makes me happy , Naruto."
While he walked away to his own room wondering what the future was going to bring them
