HEY. Death here this is my well technically first story but I'll explain that later if need be. Anyways this is going to be a naruto cross over with the darkness. I just recently played the first game and I thought it was amazing it was and then I thought "hey if I added this into the naruto story that would be badass!" BUT this will be a grey may slip to dark at some point naruto. And the darkness isn't a complete dick towards naruto. And so here it is the start of the apprentice of darkness (ps. This is just an introduction paragraph so it's not that long; it's just to explain some things.).
I don't own naruto or the darkness.
"yosh" normal talk
"Is he stupid" normal thought
"You worthless human" demon talk
"damn brat" demon thought and darkness talk
It was a cold and dark night. I was walking down the street of Konoha trying to stick in the shadows were no one would see me. You see I have never really been liked in my own village and I don't mean just some glares. No I mean kicked out of every damn store and restaurant in this god forsaken village with the exception of this one ramen place named ichiraku. The owner and his daughter are the only ones who really are nice to me and are one of my few special people.
But that's only the little problem I have. I have been attempted to be assassinated by poison more times than I can remember. And most of them succeeded, well the poisoning part that is but the poison never really affected me besides making me a little woozy for about 10-20 minutes and then I am all better. That part really pisses off people since it's harder to attack me directly since I have the hokage's anbu watching me. But that doesn't mean nobody has ever attempted, there's been about 50 that I can remember but there's probably been more that I have not noticed or remember but out of those 50 about 35 got to beat me around for a little while before they were caught. The other 10 had weapons when they attacked me, and the last 5 I can't really remember anything but fire, slashes, and blood… lots of blood but that's it. Whenever I try to remember I get a slight headache so I never really try and figure out the rest of it. But the thing I remember is the hokage being there for me when things were really tough and he would try to comfort me, now you may think why I don't hate him for not helping me. Well that's what I thought at first but even if I am only 7 I am not completely incompetent when it comes to observing. The hokage is held by the damn civilian council because they seem to have some grudge against me for reasons I can't think of. So if he tried to help me to much he would possibly get in trouble and I wouldn't want him to possibly be removed as hokage. But even if the council is still against it he helps me out as much as he can like when he has time he takes me out shopping for some food and clothes. Even if this is a rare occasion I still am happy that he takes some time that he could be resting to help me out. He even got me my own apartment since the orphanage kept trying to poison me and gave me the worst room there. (If you consider what the little space they gave me a "room"). Even if it kind of crappy it's a place I can call home. But now back to the part with me walking
I was walking or hiding whichever you prefer. You see today is October 10th. My birth day and coincidently its try and kill the demon day… I use to never understand what that meant till that day. As the day was ending and I avoided most mobs I started to head home. I was deep in thought thinking about why most of everyone hated me until suddenly I heard yelling, I looked up to see about 13 people running towards me.
"Damn it all couldn't they leave me be just for today!?" I said aloud. I turned around and ran as fast as I could run I ran through the streets which were a bad idea and now I had about 20 more people join in from the streets. So I continued to run, good thing is that I can run a lot longer than any normal village. So soon after I outran them and found a hiding spot
"I grow RESTLESS"
"Huh who was that" I looked around and didn't see anybody "that's…strange I swear I heard someone" so I peeked my head over the bush I was hiding behind. Big mistake since someone from the mob looked over and saw me and yelled out. I quickly turned to run but tripped on a tree root and landed face first in the dirt. I quickly flipped around to see the mob already there with weapon all capable of stabbing and slashing
"Is this I. Are they going to kill me? Is this my final moment"
"Hahaha you are WEAK human"
"That voice again where is it coming from?" I didn't see anyone in the crowds lips move so I was confused as to what was happening at the time.
"Ha we have you now demon brat, now we can get our revenge for our loved ones you killed"
"What are you talking about? I have killed no one I swear!" I said
The man turned to the crowd and said "look the demon still try's to lie because it is scared! Everyone let us end the demon today and get revenge for the ones we lost to it!"
The crowd cheered at the man as he turned to me. I attempted to crawl back but it was too late the man's kunai he pulled out was now in my stomach. "ARGH" I cried out but it was soon silenced as another man cut my throat with a kitchen knife. One by one I was cut, stabbed, and skinned. At some point I lost feeling so it didn't hurt as much.
"So this is my end huh, dyeing by the hands of these filthy villager's. Why me? Why do they attack me and hurt me. Damn it if only I was stronger I could stop them"
"OoH I can help you do much more than stop them, COME my weak host"
And with that I blacked out. When I opened my eyes I was in a dark sewer looking place. "What is this place? Didn't I die?" I took one last look around "well the only way to go is forward." With that I set off down the sewer, after about a minute of walking the tunnel ended and I was in a large area, at the other end there was a cage with a piece of paper that had the kanji "seal" on it, "hm what could that be" I walked up to the cage, and after a second a giant red eye opened and I jumped back.
"Huh why are you here human?" the thing said
I sat there speechless for a minute. After looking at the cage for a little bit I could see the outline of the thing in the cage and it hit me like a ton of bricks. It was a giant fox and behind it was 9 giant tails "wait wait wait HOLD UP why is he here, is this I think it is? well better ask"
I took a gulp and asked "are you the kyuubi?" as I looked at it its one eye looked at me a widened slightly.
"Oh so you have heard of me? Surprising I figured they wouldn't teach such young ones about me yet." The kyuubi said
"well no, I actually read about you in a book I got ahold of but the book said you died by the fourths hand so why are you here, and where is here?". I looked around and then back at the kyuubi
"Hm well those are simple questions, first you can't kill a tailed beast only seal it. Well you could technically kill us but well just recollect our yoki somewhere and then we reform our bodies. For your second question we are in you human. I am inside a seal that the fourth sacrificed himself to make."
To say I was shocked at that moment was an understatement. For someone to learn why they were hated from birth is something hard for anyone to take in easy. So I just sat there for a while with a blank expression. Apparently for too long since the kyuubi was started to get nervous it broke its jailor
"Hey kit you ok?" the kyuubi said
I just looked up slowly and stared at the kyuubi and then asked
"Is that what you called me here to tell me?"
"Called you? I did not call you I was sleeping until just a minute ago and then you woke me up"
"what that's impossible you were talking to me, the last thing I remember was I was thinking about if I had power to defend myself I could beat up the villagers then a voice said I can give you much more than that, come my host and then I woke up here" the kyuubi's eye widened in shock
"What? How could that be possible I'm the only one in here so he shouldn't hear anything? So what could he have heard?" as the kyuubi finished its thought the room suddenly got a little more dark and colder. Then there was a voice
"Hahaha is my host and the fur ball confused?" as it finished speaking all the darkness seemed to form infront of naruto and the kyuubi. Naruto didn't know what to say, the kyuubi on the other hand was enraged at being called a fur ball
"How dare you call me fur ball do you know who I am? I am the kyuubi the most powerful bijuu so you better choose you words correctly."
As the kyuubi finished the voice came again from the direction from where the darkness was going
"I know EXACTLY what you are fur ball hahaha but do you know who I am"
"Some annoying pest who I will kill as soon as I get out, or if you come in here" the kyuubi said quit arrogantly
But before anyone said anything the shadow disappeared "where did that thing go?"
Then the darkness appeared in front of the giant fox "RIGHT HERE FURBALL" and with that the kyuubi was shoved back first into the back of its cage and was wrapped in darkness
"Hehehe is the FURBALL humiliated?" the thing said
"WHAT ARE YOU?" the kyuubi said in rage and aggravation
"Hehehe what AM I? I am what was made in the beginning BEFORE you humans AND demons. I am THE DARKNESS"
Now the kyuubi and naruto who was really confused just sat perfectly still. Naruto was in deep thought about what the dark thing meant while the kyuubi was slightly frightened. Since it was starting to understand what this thing was implying. But naruto being young didn't understand so well
"What do you mean the darkness? And why are you here?"
The darkness disappeared from the kyuubi and was now in front of naruto who jumped back. "Ah I almost forgot about you because of fur ball hehehe what I mean to say is that I am thee darkness. Before space, before planets, before angels and demons there was darkness and that's how I LIKED it but the god made light, and then made you humans. So since you THINGS are here I decided to have some fun with your race. So I went and searched for the STRONGEST newborn and I became one with him.
"Wait so I and you are one? Like one body one mind?"
"Not necessarily we are one but two separate beings at the same time; I have my OWN mind as do you naruto."
"…so I can use your powers? Correct is it like chakra?"
"No my powers do not need such things I only need darkness"
"So I can use this power of darkness? I don't see how that would work."
"Well let me show you HA HA HA and fur ball you get to watch to"
With that the darkness ripped a tiny piece of the paper from the corner of the seal and naruto feel something open in his mind and thoughts started flooding in
"This…this thing is the darkness there is such thing as the pure darkness how what is happening how I get stuck with this strange host"
"Um kyuubi?"
"Huh how are you talking to me?"
"I don't know the thing ripped a piece of the seal off"
"Hm that makes sence well then kit pay attention this thing I think is going to tell you or show you something important"
"Hm alright"
"Hehehe are you READY?"
"Ready for what?"
"The small demonstration of my POWER"
Before I answered I was already looking into the real world again but I wasn't in control of my body but it was moving. The mob was starting to leave until one looked back and seen me get up
"Oi, it wants a round 2 everybody ha lets show it to stay down" as the man can towards me something came from my back and the only thing the man could do before the spear like thing pierced him
"OH what a SATISFYING FACE he made before he DIED HAHAHA"
Naruto wanted to be disgusted or upset about this man's death but for some all he could feel was satisfaction. That man was the one who stabbed me first so I was kind of happy but sad I didn't do it myself but before I could think about it anymore two snake like heads popped from my back one of them rammed its head through the man's chest and took his heart out and swallowed it. Then "I" turned to the mob. The heads of the snakes turned blue and a black hole appeared right in the middle of the mob. As soon as it appeared they were all sucked in and the black hole disappeared along with the mob
As soon as the mob was done the darkness spoke to me "THIS is the power I offer you naruto come call for me when you decide" and with that I blacked out
Well prologue is pretty much done all I have to do is wrap it up in the next chapter sorry if this is rushed and crappy im not good with introducing characters and its kind of 4;17 here. But please review this is my first story and I hope for this to be at least 100,000 words that's my goal and hopefully longer than that
Till next time DEATH
