Prelude to a Dragon ...

The village Hidden in the Leaves

Hiruzen Sarutobi. The third Hokage, and god of shin obi. Currently this legendary man stood within his office, looking out at his village with a look not of love or admiration, but one of anger and regret. You see a little while earlier, a severely beaten , five year old blond boy known as Uzamaki Naruto, was brought into his office. Apparently a mob of villagers had ounce again attempted to take the young boy s life.

" Why can t they see past there fear ?" he spoke aloud. He s just a child.

But unknown to the old Hokage, more happened that night than what anyone would believe.

...

( Earlier that night.)

Five year old Uzamaki Naruto ran as fast as his small leg s could carry him, through the place where most Jonin ninjas would be scared to venture .The forest of Death. The reason being that , like many time s before, he was being chased by an angry mob of villager s and shinobi. Usually the young boy would just run to the forest of death, and it would be there that the mob would stop chasing for fear of the deadly forest. But today the shinobi of the group decided to keep up the chase. Because of this Naruto is forced to run into a deeper, unknown section of the forest.

Seeing that he had a good distance of himself and the villagers, young boy instantly ducked into a nearby bush . He only peeked his eyes out to watch as the villagers ran past his bush . Letting out a relived sigh, the blond boy took a second to compose himself before stepping out of the bush. After making sure that the villagers were gone Naruto turned to make his way back to the village.

To bad fate had different ideas in mind.

Just as Naruto began to pick up speed a loud crack sounded through the air . Naruto s body instantly froze. Slowly his eyes traveled downward to see various crack starting to form around his feet . And oddly a eerie green light could be seen shining through the cracks. Before his brain could even contemplate running , the ground finally gave way . The young five year olds cry rang out through the night . Scarring away various animals and drawing the attention of the villagers.

Slowly Naruto could feel himself slipping into unconsciousness. But as his eyes were closing , he swore he saw a man with a dark green dragon like helmet walking towards him. He could hear the slight sounds of the villagers, followed by a strange flute like sound .

...
(Current Time)

Hokage Tower Sarutobi continued to think, trying desperately to understand what had happened. When he and his anbu arrived all they found were the severely burned bodies of the villagers. From the looks of it they were killed by extreme methods of electrocution.

'Perhaps Kakashi had something to do with it.' The old Hokage thought to himself.' no he s on a mission.' letting out a sigh, he turned his thought s to other matters. Like the strange hole Naruto was found in. the second we removed him from the hole it sealed itself up right before our eye s . Pinching the bridge of his nose, he let out a frustrated sigh.

Turning towards his desk he decided that he spent enough time avoiding his paperwork. 'I can only hope Naruto will remember what happened.' with nothing else to distract him, Sarutobi returned to his work.

...
(Current time) Slum Apartments

Slowly Naruto s eyes opened up to see his raggedy apartment roof . For a couple of seconds the young blond contemplated just going back to sleep. That is until the night s event s began to come back to him. He suddenly shot up, looking around frantically.

"How did I..." He almost asked, but was interrupted

"We found you unconscious in the forest of death." Naruto spun around to see a cat masked Anbu sitting in his window.

Naruto hung his head slightly . "wouldn't be the first time the villager s tried to kill me." he looked up with eye s that showed pure misery, but an unwilling resolve to not cry. "I really have just stopped caring."

The cat masked Anbu silently sighed . 'No mere boy should have to grow up like this.' she thought . with nothing else to be said ,she disappeared in a swirl of leaves.

Seeing that the Anbu was gone Naruto decided that sleep would be best to help him try and forget the night. Just like he tried to forget all of the others.

"Good luck with that kid." a voice suddenly said, making Naruto jump from his bed in surprise . In a panic Naruto looked around frantically, only seeing his normal shabby apartment. "Looking in all the wrong places kid."

Naruto slowed down, and tried to steady his breathing. "Okay .either someone's trying to kill me, or I m going insane ."

"Neither." The voice answered in a playful manner.

"Just what the hell do you want!" The boy shouted in frustration.

For a moment there was silence, and Naruto for a second thought that it left. "Before we talk I want you to agree to listen to a proposition of mine." Naruto almost outright said no. "if you disagree with what I ask, then I ll leave for good."

Letting out a sigh, Naruto nodded his head . "just where are you anyway ?"

Silence went on for another second, until Naruto began to feel a dizziness in his head, next all he saw was black.

A unknown location in Rice Country

A dark cave sits ominously in the shadowy area of rice country. The dark surrounding of the cave was slightly illuminated by the orange glow from within the cave. Slowly a figure could be seen emerging from the darkness. Once in the small amount of illumination the figure s features could be seen. A thirteen year old male, with spiky silver hair stood at the cave entrance. In his hand was a case with silver lettering written into the word Advent.

As the young male began to make his way into the cave, one could make out the various lab equipment and paper s strewn out about all over. After a few minutes of walking a older male figures body could be seen coming into view. The figure wore a sleek white shirt that was tucked into a pair of purple Shinobi pants. Around his waist was a black banded hiate, with a symbol of a music note.

The young boy spoke quietly, getting the man's attention . "Oroachimaru-Sama ."

The man now known as Oroachimaru turned fully around to greet his young charge. His skin was pale white with long black hair and slit viper like eye s. "KuKuKuKu Kabuto, you have done well." Oroachimaru's grin grew bigger as he took the case from Kabuto. "Yes ,Yes Very good."

"Um Oroachimaru-Sama ?" The pale man ounce again turned his attention to Kabuto. "The area where I retrieved this device from had a message for whoever try s to use it. It said to not use these power s unskillfully."

Oroachimaru chuckled slightly. "Are you doubting my skill Kabuto?" Kabuto quickly shook his head. "Good. And as for having the skill to use this item, well there is a reason I had you steal this." Oroachimaru reached into his shirt pulling out an old black journal , with the word of Advent Master." With this book I know everything possible about these weapons." Sitting the book to the side the pale Sannin turned to the silver case and began to open it.

'With this and the power of the cursed seal, Oroachimaru will be unstoppable.'

"Kabuto." The young shin obi was pulled from his thought s when his master called his name. "Here this is for you ". Oroachimaru tossed a dark blue square container to Kabuto.

Upon closer inspection it looked to be a deck of card s . what really stood out was the silver tiger head symbol that rested on the front. "Oroachimaru-sama What is this ?" Kabuto asked, while staring at his deck in wonder.

Weapon s of untold power. Clenched in Oroachimarus hand was a deck identical to Kabuto s only violet, with a silver snake on the front. "These are the Advent Deck s ."

...

Unknown ...?

Drip!

...?

Drip!

"...Wha... Where am I." Was the question that ran through Naruto s head as he opened his eyes to see a sewer. "the last thing I remember was ..?"

"Talking to me." The young blond spun around to see what his young mind could only comprehend as awesome. A male figure stud there, covered by a green ,form fitting, Armour like suit. The suit had white boot s and gloves which had a jagged green triangular design accenting the edge. Around the figure s waist was a white belt but it was the buckle in the center that caught Naruto s Attention . It was a oval shaped device that had bronze accent s decorating the edge. In the center rested a golden coin with a three clawed foot engraved in it. Connected to the belt was an equally white sheath that held a green dagger. As Naruto s eye s traveled up he could see large golden shield covering the man s chest, the center of the shield coming down into a diamond like shape. And finally was the green dragon like helmet that covered his head. The mouth of dragon working as the visor.

"Done staring ?" The figure asked.

Naruto continued to gap like a waterless fish." What... .Who?" he tried to squeak out but it still came out incoherent.

"My Name is Tommy ,the Green Mighty Morphin Power Ranger and we have much to talk about Naruto."
