Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto
This is my first story so don't be to mean, please. The story takes place before Naruto got his apartment, some money, and was in the Ninja Academy. Also, Kurama is a girl. I want him/her to be a mother to Naruto so, he is now a she. And he/she will be WAY OOC, along with some other characters. I will change or keep their personalities to fit the story. Don't like, don't read.
Bold- Kurama talking/thinking
Italic- Naruto thinking/talking to Kurama
Regular people talking in real world
"Get back here you thief!" Shouted the angry shop keeper running after a little kid with spiky blonde hair, clear blue eyes, whisker like scars on his cheeks (three on each), white teeth, lightly tanned skin, a white short-sleeved shirt with a red fire like swirl in the middle on the front, a gold color collar, black/gray long pants, and dark blue toe-less sandals. The "thief" is Naruto Uzumaki. Or as people know him as it, him, monster, beast, thief, etc. Naruto darted right around the corner trying to lose the shop keeper, but he was following and fast. Luckily for him the passageway he chose was very dark and covered in shadows everywhere, perfect to hide in. Naruto went into one of the shadows and watched was the shop keeper dashed by without noticing him. He was in the clear. He stepped out of the shadow, smiling, and went back to the forest.
This was a regular day and routine for Naruto. Wake up in the forest, clean up in the stream, go into the village for food, try not to get caught stealing the food, if caught run for life, after getting food go back to forest. I think you know what happens if he's caught. For most kids Naruto's age they are running around having fun with friends, no care or worry in the world, at least one parent if not two, loved, feed, homed, etc. You get the point. Sadly, this wasn't the case for Naruto. He didn't have friends to play with, had so many worries, not one parent let alone two, wasn't loved by the villagers, barely got enough food to survive, didn't have a home (unless you count the forest as a home and the leaves as a roof), he didn't have any of the things the other kids had.
When night fell Naruto went to his "bed" to fall asleep to help recover from his day, even though all his scrapes were already healed. He had an inhuman healing ability. After he fell asleep, he found himself inside what appeared to be a sewer. Suddenly he heard a growl and decided to go find the source of it. After walking around in the water of the sewer for what seemed like hours, he found a cage with some kind of animal in it.
"Hello my child." Said a demonic yet calm, unthreatening, and womanish voice.
"Who's there?" Asked Naruto in a scared and confused tone of voice.
"Don't be frightened my child, I wouldn't dream of hurting you. I'm the kyuubi, but you can call me Kurama. It's my name after all."
"Kyuubi, you mean like the kyuubi that attacked the Leaf Village four years ago?"
"Yes, that was me. But I was forced to do it by a man. I think it was Madara Uchiha. He put me under his control and forced me to do it."
"OK that sums up who you are now, where are we?"
"We are in your mind."
"MY MIND?! WHAT?! HOW CAN THAT BE?!"
"Please calm down, I don't want to see you panicked. It would hurt my heart more than when the villagers hurt you." Kurama said starting to tear up.
"OK I'll calm down. Wait, how do you know the villagers miss-treat me?"
"To answer how I know is because I can see into your mind, memories, and see what you see. And why you and me are here is because I 'm sealed inside you, and I couldn't take you not knowing about me any more so I called you here. And that's why you're here, I called you. It worked perfectly because you were resting and that made it easier too."
"Well, at least I know where I am now. So, is the only reason you called me here because you wanted me to know about you?"
"No, I also wanted to tell you a few things."
"Like, what?"
"Like who your parents are, why the villagers hate you, and I could teach you a few things also. When you seen as much as I have, you learn a few things."
"You really can tell me all that!?"
"Yep! What to know it and learn some jutsus?"
"Of course I do! Can you start with my parents and the villagers?"
"Of course my child. Your parents were Minato Namikaze the Fourth Hokage and Kushina Uzumaki. The villagers hate you because of me. They see you as me and think you are me because I'm sealed in you. I'm sorry that you are hated and miss-treated because of me, you must hate me." Kurama then starts crying.
"No, I don't hate you." Kurama then stops crying and looks up with tears in her eyes and a confused look on her face.
"You don't?"
"No. How could I hate you for what they think. And I'm beating you didn't have a choice when you were sealed in me."
"Thank you Naruto, Thank you!" CRASH!
"Ow! I forgot there were bars here." Kurama said while laughing.
"Are you OK?" Asked Naruto with concern in his voice.
"Yes I'm fine don't worry. Anyway you should go, you need sleep. We will talk later in the morning. Also, don't be alarmed if you hear me when you are awake. Now that you know about me, I can talk to you."
"OK Kurama." Yawns. "I guess I am tired." Snicker
Snicker "Good night Naruto, sweet dreams."
Naruto then left the sewer and found himself back in the forest. After he processed what just happened he said, "Tomorrow is going to be interesting for sure." After that he went to bed, lied down, and fell asleep for real this time.
