Important Stuff
This is a short story; a friend of mine was watching Frozen on cable so I stuck watching it as well. I found that particular storyline was very good and thought of this plotline for NarutoxElsa. This also has been inspired by Solar2919 and her Limits of A legendary being, where it is a romance story of Naruto and Mizore, which is undergoing rewrite at the moment.

A Tragic Beginning
For every Yin, there is a Yang.
For without darkness, there is no light.
Without the cold, there would be no warmth.
October, 12. Konohagakure, it was a village at the edge of the world. It was a general peaceful village, or so it would seem. For the last couple of days, the town inhabitants have been doing a sort of witch hunt.
"There they are!" a spotter shouted and indicated at the couple who was running through the street. The mob quickly turned their attention to the fugitive and gave chase.
"Why? How can they be so naïve?" A slender, feminine built, fair skin, violet eyes, fiery red hair said. She was holding a small bundle next to her chest, and gently rocking it as she dashed alongside her husband through the empty street.
"I don't know, Kushina. For Naruto's future, we have to get out of this village, and as far away as possible…" A fairly tall, fair skinned man said. He had bright blue eyes and spiky blond hair. It was the same as his newborn son.
"That's enough Minato, Kushina!" A light-skinned man of below-average statue with grey spiked hair called out. He was moving from his hidden spot and blocked the couple's path. A few of his bodyguard was standing behind him. The villagers finally caught up to the couple from the direction they came from.
"Hiruzen-jiji… Please let my family go. I will accept any punishment but my child is innocent." Minato begged the third leader of the village while standing in front of his wife and child, shielding them from view with his body.
"I'm afraid not, you know the prophecy and who said it. That person has never been wrong before!" Hiruzen replied. He had long past his prime and wanted to pass the mantle of leadership to Minato, but unfortunately, that option was no longer possible. Minato's and Kushina's son was born on that day, and as such, that child must not be allowed to live, or it will bring down the village.
Kushina holding Naruto, wrapped in cloth tightly in her hand. She could felt the slight warmth emanating from the small bundle of joy. His birth was difficult for her, but it was one of the happiest days of her life. It marked the beginning of her family. Sadly, the entire village was against them and tried to destroy her dream. Her grips around Naruto tightened while the said child looked at his mother with his bright blue eyes, and not uttering a single sound.
"I know the prophecy, but you can't be serious! Killing every male child who was born on that day is insane no matter how much you try to justify it!" Minato shouted at the leader as the villagers moved closer to the couple, and pushing them into a corner. It was idiocy. Children were rare in the village and now its inhabitants have gone completely insane, committing atrocity based on a prophecy.
"A son will be born on 10th of October; he will bring destruction to this village, as it had been foretold," Hiruzen said, hinting the first line of the prophecy. He had substitute the word "son" for "sun", believing it was a mistake when someone had written down the dying seer's words. The seer had passed away afterward so he couldn't really check if that was a mistake or not.
"I will take my son and wife away from this village, never to return. Then there is no way for my son to carry out the prophecy," Minato argued as his body pushed against Kushina, who in turn had her back on the wall. There was no space left for either of them to move back any futher.
"I'm afraid I can't take that chance. Now move out the way, as I do not want to harm you," Hiruzen ordered Minato. He refused to obey. The elderly man quickly commanded the villagers to pull Minato away.
"Over my dead body!" Minato shouted in anger, and started pushing away several aggressive town folks. A sharp pain in his abdomen broke him out of his rage. Minato looked down and found a knife embedded deep into his side as he coughed up a bit of blood with one hand holding his wound. The crowd quickly backed away before looking at each other accusingly. They were unable to determine who had done such thing. It wasn't that they hadn't done it before; it was that someone did it to an unarmed man.
Minato took this time and turned toward his wife, who was hugging Naruto and crouching on the cold cobber stone ground.
"I'm so sorry… I couldn't… protect… both of you..." Minato struggled to say while putting a hand on Kushina's cheek as her tears ran across his fingers, and mixing it with the blood. Minato averted his eyes toward his son, who he would never able to see growing up. The dying man mustered the last of his strength to give a heartwarming smile. It was something for his son to remember him by, instead of this sorrowful moment.
Naruto outstretched his undeveloped limb, trying to grab his father face, but it was out of his reach. His blue eyes turned dull as a layer of water began to cover it. His mother, Kushina, hugged him once last time before laying him down on the floor in the corner gently. Naruto also tried to grab his mother retreating hairs, but failing in that as well as his grip strength was nonexistence. His parent covered him with their body in a protective manner as the villager tried to pull them away. Both of them spoke softly to their son, as their body was impaled by various sharp objects due to the town's people frustrations. Never once, did the smile on their face faded away.
Naruto, even as a baby couldn't hold in his emotion any longer, and cried loudly as soon as his parent body was moved away revealing him to the mob. His parent face was replaced by an aged old man, Hiruzen.
"I'm sorry for doing this, Naruto. But for the future safety of the village, please go with your parent," Hiruzen said. The child before him didn't understand his words. Naruto just wanted to see his parent again as tears continuingly damping the cloth, and his cries overshadow the villagers' angry shouts. The air around Naruto began to shimmer. It was due to the rising heat from a small source. Several villagers began to feel uneasy at the heat wave.
Hiruzen didn't make much of it but he did sweat a little, and pulled out a knife from his side, readying to complete the task. Naruto's cries got louder, as the thermal blanket enveloped him gotten denser before it began to push everyone back, shocking them with an invisible hand. Hiruzen blinked in astonishment, and dropped the knife when the wooden handle of the weapon began set aflame. Its edge glowed slightly. The knife bounced on the cobber stone floor, as its metal blade bended on impact.
"It's not possible," Hiruzen muttered, stepping back a bit away from the child. It was the same with everyone else.
"He's a monster! A Demon! Kill it!" That was one of many shouts. They were called out by the villagers.
"No… no… it's not possible. We're can't be the one who fulfilled the prophecy," the village elder shook his head in dismay while watching the baby in front of him covered in yellow and orange auras. The airs around the villagers begin to heat up rapidly as various object around them combusted into flames, seemingly without any external aids. The villager's clothes shrank slightly from the heat, drying any wet patches that were there previously.
"HAHHHH!" several bold villagers shouted and dashed toward the baby with their pitch folk holding high. As the sharp metal point collided against Naruto's unprotected body, aided by the assailants moving momentum. While the tip melted on impact, Naruto cries as he felt something blunt pushed against his side, hurting him. With a loud scream, the child body wrapped in intense flames like the sun itself, and exploded outward, incinerating everything in its paths. The cobber stone charred and quickly turned into magma under the intensity of the flames. Everyone in sight set alight by the raging resulting inferno.
"It wasn't a mistake… it's not a son. It's the sun," those were the last words Hiruzen said before he too joined the mob in the afterlife, except without the screaming. The fiery tendril-like stream of fire didn't stopped there as it spread across street and collided against every building, wrapping the towns in its clutches, swirling upward, turning into a pillar of fire reaching high into the sky. The raging inferno didn't die down for hours as if the fire was struggling to hold on its existence, turning everything into ash.
When it finally did die down, leaving a child alive among the burnt rubbles. The child was still crying, only barely. The town was completely destroyed; anything flammable was consumed and reduced to ash. Objects that were not flammable were rapidly melted in the fire and joined the magma floors, increasing its volume. Naruto sniffled a bit and looked at the blue sky above him. It was unhindered by any sort of cover now. The child giggled a bit as he apparently sees some sort of clouds that look like his parents. He waved at them with his tiny arms.
22 Years Later…
Naruto, now 22 year old, sat cross-legged on a superheated rock, deep within the body of a rather active volcano. As a baby, he had been rescued by a nearby dweller. That dweller could see the pillar of fire from his logging, and quickly rushed to the scene, only to find a baby among the blacken earth. Naruto had no control over his manifested power at that time, but the man who he came to know as his second father did his best to help the boy. Sadly, the man passed away when Naruto was only fifteen, leaving him with all his worldly possession, which wasn't much.
"Are you going to be here forever?" The floating flames near the boy asked. Its voice seemed to be everywhere, bouncing off the chamber's earthly wall. Naruto opened his bright blue eyes as the scattered flames quickly comes into together, forming a fiery apparition with its hollowed out eyes and nine flaming stream of fire behind its end.
"Why do I have this power? I can't touch anything without burning it unintentionally…" Naruto said, looking down at the red hot liquid surrounding him and his piece of solid stone with magna vein covering it. This volcano was his home for the last seven years. The only person he knew was his deceased father, who Naruto couldn't even touch until the very end. Naruto only did it then, so he could turn his father's remains into ash. It was for him to feel the man who had raised him at least once before allowing that man to go with the wind.
"I don't know. I'm bored here, and I can't leave your side for too long or my flames will go out," The fiery ghostly being said. When it first appeared, Naruto freaked out and tried to kill it with his power, only for it to grow in to astronomical size and burned down the surrounding forest. Since then, they have been long time friends after getting to know each other a little better. The effort was greatly accelerated by Naruto willingness to make a friend; he never had one and rarely come in contact with the outside world.
"Where do you suggest, Kurama?" Naruto asked curiously. Any place he went to will quickly have a climate shift from whatever it was previously to very hot, making it difficult for him to stay at any place for very long.
"How about somewhere with endless winter, we have never been to such place before? Or any places for that matter," Kurama suggested. The climate around Naruto never changes, and the fiery apparition had never seen snow before. Snow was something it always wanted to see and perhaps touch as well if that was possible for a fire incarnated demonic entity.
Naruto decided to do what his companion suggested since he had stayed in one spot for his entire life. The blond man stood up, as flames began to materialize around him and wrapped itself around his leg, and lifted him into the air and up through the volcano's only opening.
"I'm going to miss this place," Naruto said, looking down at the magma chamber one last time. The flames began to cover his body entirely as the incarnated sun continued his ascend.
"You know… people will freak out at you for being butt naked!" Kurama said almost mockingly. Naruto quirked his eyes a little and just sighed. It was not like he didn't want to wear clothes, but the cloth didn't last very long as Naruto's power tend to go wild and uncontrollably, burning everything around him.
"Another thing as well, if you just sat there all day, then you never will fulfill your prophecy!" Kurama continued as Naruto scratches his cheeks a bit. His adopted father had heard of the prophecy associated with his birth and didn't think much of it. The man unable to believe how someone could murder newborn simply because what it might do in the future. Still, Kurama said the first few lines already came to pass which aroused interest in the blond.
A sun will be born on tenth of ten,
its birth place will cease to be,
in 15 summers alone once again,
even if two halves met and stay,
the sun flames cannot be drain,
for it marks the dawn of a new day.
"Cryptic… fifteen summers. Does that mean fifteen year and what does it meant by two halves?" Naruto frowned and questioned the long dead seer's words, as it had been relayed to him by his adopted father. The sun and demon flew through the sky, heading north where ice and snow would be found.
