Four women stood staring out into the water.

As they watched the hermit they had befriended so long ago, sail out with his only child "to Greener grass, and brighter skies" He would say. But even as dread filled their hearts with the old man's absence, there thoughts strayed to his son and his parting words.

-Minutes earlier-

The young man stood in front of the four maidens, his hair blowing in the ocean winds, as the sand beneath his feet ruffled with anxious thought.

'I must warn you' he said filled with sadness, his voice horse and unused 'Father does not wish for you to know, he does not want you to worry needlessly, but I say again, I must warn you.'

Staring into the maidens with eyes of chaos, 'Do not mis-use the power you have been given, for even though they may not carry my name, nor my face, or even my blood," looking at them with tearful regret, 'they will carry my eyes, and should they see corruption in the maidens hearts'

The boys eyes glazed over, as if seeing the horrible consequences, 'I hope you never see the results of such corruption' shaking the tears from his eyes, he looked into the distance 'Something Grim is coming to these lands, something that will encompass the skies and devour the seas only to feast upon the remnants. Father and I must leave before they steal the winds from this place as well, thus I beg you, Heed my warning.' He said as he bid the maiden's farewell sailing away with the old hermit.

Only a day would pass, before the maidens would notice the ocean wind's, refusal to blow upon these shores.

Lights flashed as fires burned with searching light, a young boy with blond hair and whiskered cheeks. His wrist held with a steel like grip, frightful tears running down the boys face with reckless abandon, his once golden hair matted with mud, and dirt as he ran along with the older boy.

The older boys brown eyes, jumped towards the slightest sounds in the night. The bags around his eyes showing just how long it had been since, the silver haired boy had entertained the idea of restful sleep. His breath choppy and short as he continued to pull the shorter boy along.

"I think I saw them over their!" Yanking on the blondes hand he set into desperate sprint. "Damn him! and his so called revolution!" the older boy muttered under a tired gasp for air, sharp claw like nails and dog like ears revealing faunus heritage as the light flash over his features. Dodging behind, a tree they watched a man and a woman both wearing clothes reminiscent of cloth dyed red.

A brown eye closed as he winced audibly, for he knew that no matter how much he wished it wasn't true, that no dye was used to gain such a rustic red color. However his carelessness cost him, as the female Faunus immediately looked his way.

Pulling the boy he attempted to run only to stop as his eyes stuck the end of a gun barrel.

"Tsk, Tsk, come now Kakashi we can't have you running off with our weapon now can we?" The female said with a sadistic glee that sent shivers down the duo's spines, as the young boys eyes teared up and he let out heart broken sob.

"I won't let yous use my brother for your hair brained schemes!" The now revealed Kakashi shouted at the women, "To bad you don't get a say Huh." She laughed "Hey we Foun!-" a sickening crack went through the area as the females companion hit her over the head with a nearby branch, before taking off his blood soaked mask "Iruka-sensei!" the young blond called out fearfully. "Go! GO!" The dolphin Faunus growled out before turning around and bashing another terrorist over the head as He/she Jumped out from one of the bushes "I'll hold them off! Just get him out of here!"

Kakashi Closed his eyes forcefully holding back tears as he pulled the blond from the area, ignoring the child's cries for his sensei all the way. They ran for what seemed to be hours, only stopping when they reached a beach, where a large ship was docked.

The blondes cries, having receded to occasional whimpers, having caught his breath The one eyed boy kneeled as he hugged the child. "It's okay, it's all gonna be just okay Ototo, we're almost there, it'll be just fine." He consoled the young boy, as he held him tightly his own tears streaming from his single eye.

Standing up he held Naruto in his arms, tight enough to make sure the boy knew he was still there, and wouldn't be leaving any time soon.

*Crack*

Falling forward the dog Faunus barely managed to stop himself from falling, on the Uzumaki, as blood fell from the bullet wound, hitting his lower back, paralyzing him from the waist down. Rolling over he stopped a wince from the pain as the sand ground into the open wound.

A battalion of people wearing the blood soaked clothing Iconic of the Terrorist Group called Root.

At the front man with a black robe draped off his shoulders, and a cane in hand, while he too was missing an eye. Some would take relief in the fact that at least one person wasn't wearing blood soaked clothing.

Kakashi knew better.

The only reason Danzo's robe was black was because there so much blood was soaked inside that it appeared as black as the man's heart.

"Nii-san, Don't die nii-san please get up don't die nee-san!" *Hulg* Kakashi spit the blood from his mouth, soaking the mask he wore, a wet crimson color cupping the younger boys cheek. "Listen, Otouto you need to run! right now, you hear me, you need to ru-*Gasp*" tears streamed down the young ,maelstroms face as the light faded from his Older brother eyes, with the crack of one of the blood soaked figures guns.

A thud followed soon after when, his hand fell from the younger boy face.

"Collect the boy, we need to begin, his conditioning right away" the old man stated gruffly, without any apparent emotion. The blonde was completely still, holding the remnants of his older brother, blood splatter across his face, as blood continued to gush from the older boys head.

Eyes shadowed by his bangs, as tears flowed freely, before he looked to sky, a tortured sound emanating from his throat.

The earth shook beneath the Battalions feet as seemingly in answer to the blondes terror, black crystals shot up from the ground, skewering the group as they pulsed with red veins. "Run!" One yelled seconds before he too was punctured by the black crystals.

The earth was ripped in two, as the black crystal scattered the earth that covered it, doing the same to the group of terrorists, The blond just stared up at the sky in a silent scream, the corpse of his elder brother still laying in his lap seemingly un-bothered by the screams of the enemy as they were shredded by crystal.

His eyes glowed with chaos, as power leaked from within, before with a flash of white light, he disappeared never to be seen by the inhabitants of this land ever again.

-A month later-

The young blond appeared in one of the many forests, of remnant unaware of the chain reaction his presence caused. Unaware of how four women with powers beyond imagination, looked up as if feeling something had changed.

Unaware of how silver eyes, couldn't stop the smile that appeared on her face, even as death, bit into her limbs and she welcomed it's embrace.

Of how the faunus of Remnant ears perked up in unison.

Of how the return of the sons eyes, caused the gears of remnant to spin in reverse

He was clueless to it all as his head met the ground sight fading, alone, his seemingly dead brother sitting limp next to him as the darkness pulled him to rest.
