Chapter 1: Dysfunctional Family
Running. That's probably all he ever did. Run from the kids on the streets. Run from the ninja that loved to chase him. Run from the memories. Run from the pain of being alone.
Like right now, he was running. Running from a crowd, mixed with both civilians and shinobi, to save his life.
He wasn't an idiot as one may think of an orphaned neglected child. Nor was he naïve like most nine year olds his age. He knew the real world and had been living in it since he was about three.
He knew. He knew why he was hated. He knew why the adults told the kids to avoid him and hurt him. He'd always known. I mean, when you get beat almost all the time with people yelling 'Kyuubi Brat' and waking up to a giant gate with a with an equally as large fox behind it, you catch on. Quite honestly, he didn't care about the demon. So he had a demon sealed in his stomach, big fucking deal. But he was still human and still a young child. He longed for the love and care of someone. But he was deprived the love, everyone he got close to either tried to kill him or someone killed them.
About four years ago, his current academy teacher and second friend he made when he was five, had been attacked. A Hyuuga was with the group who had jumped the kind Chunin, Iruka. They messed up his chakra pathways, ending his ninja career. And it was all his fault. Iruka didn't blame the boy but Naruto had never felt so ashamed and so hurt. But still the young ex-Chunin was his friend. His only friend. So from there, his mental health spiraled downward. He slowly closed himself off from everyone and his old self died, only to be replaced by the secretly homicidal, crazy, insane person he was today, hidden away by his mask of happiness. But enough of that. Back to the current problem.
Naruto narrowed his eyes at the ground ahead of him as he ran. 'This is ridiculous! I could just kill all those bastards and bathe in their tainted blood.' He had to stop the sadistic grin that wanted to form on his face. He continued to run until he took a left and unfortunately, or fortunately from Naruto's point of view, ended up faced with a dead end. 'Finally! I can kill them without any witnesses.' Slowly he turned around and pressed himself against the gate that 'trapped' him, playing the part of a small scared child. "P-please don't hurt me." Inside his head, he and his tenant gagged at the pathetic whimper in his voice. Despite what he said, the crowd of civilians with a couple of Chunin descended upon his small body. Sometimes he wondered, do these people ever think? I mean, with the recent disappearing of a lot of mobs, the thought that maybe, just maybe, the blond really was the demon they portrayed and killed the mob members? He thought about that for a moment, his eyes running over the humans who were raining weak blows down onto his high pain tolerant body. Nah, they were too dumb for that. He grabbed one of the daggers and yanked it from his body, the wound healing up instantly, a tossed it at the one most closest to him, it going straight through his heart. The man's gurgling scream stopped the others from pursuing. They started to back away from blond who smirked viciously. 'Sorry but Naruto is all out of mercy today. Goodbye.' With that thought, he ripped another weapon from his body, this time a katana with a jagged edge, the blade not the only thing wicked about it. He got to his feet, the villagers and Chunin now shaking in fear at his crooked smirk and the insane glint in his eyes. One brave, or stupid, Chunin whipped out a kunai with a flashy display of skill, trying and succeeding in easing the worries of the group behind him.
"You don't scare us demon! Now let us finish-" He didn't get to complete his sentence as the wicked weapon embedded itself through his head. Blood spurted violently from the wound and the man's body fell to the ground with a thud as their nine year old prey wedged it from the corpse. Naruto grinned at them and with skill a young boy shouldn't have, he flicked the blood and brain matter off the blade.
"So, whose next?" he asked. The night was filled with the sick squelching sounds of skin being ripped apart and the thuds of bodies hitting the dirty alley ground.
Naruto grinned at his work. He sat atop the pile of bodies, even going as far as making a crown out of bone from his victims and metal from the kunai and shuriken used to wound him. All in all, he felt like a king. A King of Death.
"Oh Naruto-kun, again?" He looked up from his work at the grey haired Inu (Dog) masked Anbu before him and frowned.
"I thought we went over this before, Kakashi. They deserved it." he answered the Anbu. The man, now identified as Kakashi, sighed dramatically.
"Yes, I know but now I have to clean the mess. Oh woe is me." The blond rolled his eyes at the immature Anbu. He had known the man since he was four. The first one who ever cared about him though you would have to strangle the two to ever get them to admit they cared a little about each other. Kakashi seemed to be attracted to his insane personality, being quite the sadist himself. "And you made such a mess today too." The blond looked around, scanning for any other Anbu. "Don't worry. The ones that are here are out of ear shot."
"I could help you."
"Yes but if someone sees you, we'll both get in trouble. The Anbu are already wary of me and if they saw you using a jutsu, they'll think that I'm working with you."
"But you are, though they don't need to know that." Naruto chimed as he hopped off his throne of death onto the ground.
"You need a bath." Kakashi stated as he lazily went through the hand signs for Grand Fire Ball Jutsu. The young ninja-in-training looked himself over and grunted an affirmative. He jumped like a cat to higher ground that wasn't covered in blood or guts and started to lick himself clean while the people he killed burned. He looked down questioningly at the teenager watching him. "For some reason that turns me on." Naruto snorted and jumped down from his perch.
"You're a pedophile."
"How?"
"You're ten years older than me and you're hitting on me."
"I'm not hitting on you. Just complementing you."
"…"
"…"
"… Pedo."
"Uh!"

The Academy would never change, Naruto decided. It would always be the same boring place he went to everyday of the blasted week. He wasn't trying to put Iruka down but the brunette should have just dropped appearances and be the evil little bitch he was. Naruto was sure he rubbed off on the man. I mean, you can't be around someone for almost ever and not pick up something from them. He sighed. It was bad enough he learned all of this from Kyuubi already, yes he knew the fox, but for the classes to be Oh-God-I'm-about-to-pluck-my-eye-out-with-a-kunai boring and him having to sit through it was absolute torture. And he could tell by the glances Iruka sent him and the flashes in his eyes that the supposedly kind academy teacher was enjoying every minute of his hell. So he did what he always did; put his head down and pretend sleep like baka-Naruto did. But eventually that got boring too because he was an insomniac. 'Naruto is so bored!' he mentally whined as he took a glance at the clock and sighed. They were only five minutes into the day. So he decided to tune into what his older friend was talking about. "… so today we'll be going outside and practicing kunai and shuriken throwing again." A grin broke out onto his face and he started to chuckle lowly.
"So now do you think you should start slowly showing them you know what to do?" the voice of his inner demon and sensei chimed in.
"Yup." The blond kept his head on the desk and waited until the kids filed out the class. Three students stayed behind and one was slowly making his way towards him with the two others behind him. With his sharp senses, he could hear the sloshing of water in a bucket. 'So that's their plan huh?' He lifted his head and glared heatedly at the three kids before they even reached him. The boy in front, Kiba, dropped the bucket while the two girls, Ino and Sakura, ran out the classroom scream, the Inuzuka following not long after. He allowed himself to smirk. 'Pussies.' The blond rose from his seat and strode out the door, his arms raised above his head as he stretched. None of the other kids paid him any heed as he walked over by a tree and leaned against it.
"Okay, so who wants to go first?" Iruka asked as he stood next to Mizuki, a light grey haired Chunin who was the brunette's 'best friend'. Again, keeping up appearance. Not many hands were raised as the students were nervous and wanted to compare their skills by watching the others first. Kiba's hand was the first to shoot up, followed by Sasuke, and a couple other kids. "Alright Kiba, you're first, then Sasuke, then Ami, then…" Naruto had stopped listen by then, opting for talking to the ever present being in his head.
"That girl's name reminds me of a song I heard before." Naruto thought to his sensei.
"Oh really? How does it go?" the demon asked, slightly curious.
"Something like 'Love me hate me, say what you want about me, but all of the boys and all of the girls are begging to If You Seek Amy'."
"…"
"… What?" Naruto cocked his head to the side, curious about why the demon went silent.
"You really are off your rocker. Why would you be singing a sex song? Oh wait! I know!"
"What rocker? I'm only nine."
"I can just see you now, growing up to be a gay psycho path with a crazy ass boyfriend. Oh how I would enjoy that." With that, the blond cut his mental link with the strongest of the nine Bijuu. He looked up at the other kids just in time to see Kiba hit the third ring from the bull's eye with his third shuriken, the other two stars and his three kunai all in the same ring. He got in line behind the purple haired girl as the wild Inuzuka and his puppy made their way back to the other kids. He, feeling proud with his results, of course decided to poke fun at the blond, having already forgotten what happened only moments before.
"Oh look what we have here! The dead-last think he can actually hit the targets!" he declared loudly, attracting the attention of all the other students. A look from Naruto kept Iruka from interfering and Mizuki could care less. "Don't poke your eye out worthless. Then you won't be able to be a ninja. Oh wait; you never had a chance in the first place! Ha!" Most the other students started laughing at the blond whose slitted eyes narrowed at the other boy.
"Shut your face dog breath, you're about to kill us all before I can even start." he replied calmly. "I bet I can beat you and Uchiha's scores." Kiba snorted.
"What a laugh, loser." Ami, being a strong Sasuke fangirl had, stepped in.
"Yeah, you'll never beat Sasuke-kun. I don't even know why you try. Once a dobe, always a dobe." the girl taunted. The younger nine year old paid no mind to their pokes and prods at his skills but stood calmly in line, waiting his turn. Iruka rolled his eyes at his students' squabble and smiled at the raven haired boy who said nothing throughout the entire encounter.
"Okay Sasuke, you're turn." He nodded and took the three shuriken and three kunai from Mizuki. He held the three shuriken in between the fingers of his left hand. His arm was bent towards his neck. He flicked his wrist and arm in three swift movements flung the weapons at the multicolored target. Three simultaneous thuds resounded as the weapons met their mark. Two were buried in the ting right outside the bull's eye while the third was right in the center. He flicked his right arm and the knives flew. Two in the center and one in the ring outside it. The fangirls when wild, shouting many different things as the raven walked calmly towards the back of the school grounds. Ami gripped his arm, causing him to stop and look back at her, something akin to annoyance swimming in his eyes. She blushed, ignorant to his discomfort.
"G-good job."
"Thanks." He yanked his arm from her grip and continued to the back. The still blushing purple haired girl walked up to the mark and collected her weapons from her teachers. They were thrown sloppily though, two hitting the second ring from the bull's eye and the other four in random rings on the target. Despite her low score, she was still proud of herself and walked away with her chin up hands on her hips. She smirked at the blond.
"Beat that, loser."
"Gladly." He took his weapons and waited not a second to flick them all at the target. The results were nothing short of a surprising with his other scores. The shuriken all hit the bull's eye, the tips of the kunai going straight through the holes of the shuriken into the center also. All was silence save for the thuds of his sandals hitting the ground as he walked back to his tree. He had been training on the skill for years with both his tenants and both his adult friends. The quiet was broken with a shrill yell that echoed across the field.
"Iruka-sensei, he cheated!" Sakura had her hand raised in the air as she yelled. The brunette Chunin shook his head at the girl.
"No, he didn't Sakura. That was all pure skill. If he cheats, we would have noticed." he answered, a small approving smirk on his face. Ami was next to voice her thoughts.
"But there's no way he could beat Sasuke-kun! Skills don't just come over night!" The Chunin shrugged at his protesting students.
"Maybe he's been holding back all this time. Now quiet down or the rest of you won't get to go." That shut them up quick.

Naruto trekked slowly and aimlessly through the crowded streets, not ready to get back to his apartment building. He ignored the glares and hateful words and kept walking, opting for staring the ground rather than straight ahead. Soon, the number of people walking by lessened and he was eventually walking on a dirt road, towards his usual place for quiet, an empty dock. It was on Uchiha ground but nobody was there most times. He stopped and climbed down to the wooden planks, kicking off his shoes and dipping his feet into the cool water. The smallest of smiles cracked on his face and he closed his eyes, leaning back on his arms, soaking in the sun that bathed his skin. "Hey." Blue eyes snapped open and he whipped around to face the only surviving Uchiha in Konoha.
"What are you doing here?" the blond demanded. He was out of school so all masks were dropped and he was back to his evil little self. The raven smirked at him slightly as he walked down and sat next to the blond.
"I should be asking you that. After all it's my–" The boy stopped talking as painful memories rose to the surfaced. "–families'." Naruto shrugged.
"Barely anybody is here so I claimed this as my own." With that, they lapsed into silence.
"That thing you did at school," the Uchiha started. Naruto sighed–he should have seen it coming. "How did you do that?"
"Practice." Onyx eyes narrowed.
"Teach me."
"No."
"Why not?" Sasuke whined briefly but quickly caught himself.
"Because."
"Because is not an answer."
"I don't care."
"Please?" Naruto scowled.
"NO!" With that, he grabbed his shoes and shushined away.

The hunt–one of his favorite things to do. Under the full moon of tonight, he traveled swiftly through the town–which unlucky soul would be dinner tonight? Dinner was almost always male but he noticed that female teased way better. Their blood was pure, despite what they may have done. And that's why female was a rare pleasure. Naruto was well aware of the present of the Uchiha behind him, practically stalking him. 'And not doing a good job at it either.' he commented mentally. Oh well, not his fault if Sasuke was scarred for life… again. The boy had been following him after school ever since he left him at the dock–stupid stubborn boy.
"Who are you talking about, yourself or him? Because I think you've finally met your match in hardheadedness." Kyuubi mused.
"I'm talking about him. Why won't he leave me ALONE?" he mentally wailed. He snapped back to attention, sniffing out any civilian or Genin unlucky enough to still be out at this hour.
"Why don't you just take him on as your student? Besides, you need a friend."
"I have friends thank you very much."
"Yeah, two adults that you rarely ever talk to."
"No."
"Okay fine, I'll strike a deal with you. If he ever becomes cannibal, you have to befriend him. And you can't kill him."
"And if he never becomes cannibal?"
"I'll let you dye my fur," he shuddered and swallowed hard, "pink."
"…Are you serious?"
"Yep. Now let me out. I'm hungry." Naruto released some of the demon's chakra from his body, a small amount so he didn't awake everyone in the village, and it slowly took the form of a husky sized fox with two tails. The fox licked Naruto's face before it took off, the blond following behind, their little stalker following too. It was easy to find a Genin–probably thought that because he was a Genin he could be out as long as he wanted. He looked to be about sixteen, a three years younger than Kakashi. Naruto eyed the boy hungrily before pouncing on the unsuspecting Genin. Before the teen could scream, he bit into his neck and destroyed his voice box. Despite the blood rising in his throat, the Genin continued to fight with the blond but there was no way he was going to win–Naruto was a motherfucking G, he didn't lose. With a growl, Naruto punched a hole through the boy's chest. A few gurgling noises, a vomiting sound, and two thuds later, Naruto was sealing the corpse away in a scroll. He started to walk home, intent on have a bath. Judging by the sound of sandals hitting the ground, his classmate was on his way home as well. He smirked and disappeared.

Back at his home, Kyuubi was in his human form, using a knife to cut the adult male he found into pieces. The blood that dripped to the floor disappeared. The reason? Naruto and Kyuubi created a seal that absorbed any blood that dripped to the ground, cleaned it, and poured into a giant container in the basement of his abandon apartment, keeping it fresh. He unsealed his Genin and dropped it to the floor for his tenant as he went to the basement with a pitcher in hand. After going down at least six flights of rickety stairs–no wonder he was so small even after eating so much. That was a damn work out!–he reached the giant container and turned the knob on it, releasing some of the blood into the plastic container. He jogged back up the stairs and set the pitcher on the table. Both men were sliced into pieces and there chunks of organs were placed in a fancy manner around their hearts on two different plants. The rest of them were on the bones in a big bowl in the center of the table. He sat down and poured the blood into two cups and set one in front his hunting partner. They both said a humble "Itadakimasu!" before digging into their meal.

Yet again, Naruto was out hunting with Sasuke following as usual only this time, Kyuubi was at home, trying to fix the window that oh so majestically–not really–broke into millions of tiny piece. The culprit of this magic–some random dumbass villager–was then later found missing his dick in one of the alleyways, sobbing. Fucker.
After Naruto caught his meal for the night–the dickless dude–he dragged the body over to one of the nearby forest and started a fire with a couple twigs and a lighter he found on the way. Just like always, Sasuke followed him into the forest and stayed put, even as he cut the fucker into piece. As he roasted the man over his somewhat man-made fire, Sasuke slowly stalked out the trees. It had been a year since the boy started following Naruto, having finally built up the courage to talk to the blond outside of begging him to teach the raven something. Naruto was still ten–and still a G–Sasuke was eleven, which meant two more years of hell before they graduated, meaning the raven needed to do this now. Naruto turned towards him, raising a thin blond eyebrow in question as he bit meat off the bone in his hand. "What… does that taste like?"
"Meat but it's sweet because we humans have rich blood, especially the females." the blond answered as his acquaintance sat on the ground next to him.
"Can I… um…" Instead of listening to the Uchiha sputter and pussyfoot around, he ripped a piece from the arm in his hand and shoved it into the pale boy's mouth. Uchiha hesitantly chewed a swallowed after a while, shuddering as it slipped down his throat. They sat in silence, save for the cackling of the fire and Naruto's chewing. "Can I have some more?"
"Look, how about I bring you to my house. I can show how to hunt and everything, maybe few techniques here and there." The Uchiha's eyes brightened ever so slightly and he grinned.
"Let's get started than." The blond kicked some dirt on the fire and left the body there as he started walking towards his house. They wouldn't be alone anymore. Not Kakashi, not Iruka, not Sasuke, not Kyuubi, and not Naruto.
