This chapter will be focused mainly on character introductions and character development. This is my first Fan Fiction and I intend to try and update it when I have the time.
Disclaimer: I do not own any characters in this story, I will not be creating OCs, however, personalities will be changed.
Chapter One:
To any normal person, it'd appear to be a good day, the sun was shining and overall it seemed peaceful in the village known as Konoha. That is, until a high pitched scream echoed throughout the entire village. Said scream seemed to have originated near the Hokage tower, the tallest structure in the village, being that it is home of all political meetings. It was roughly half a mile away from the construct that the scream came from, where we meet our main character.
In an alleyway, there was a mob of around fifty men, women, and children alike, beating a child. The child was a short little boy with big blue eyes, his eyes seemed to sparkle when the sun was reflected off of them. The boy was wearing tattered rags that barely covered his body. He was so skinny that you could see he was malnourished at just a glance. The boy had wonderfully blonde hair with black and red streaks in it. The young blond boy looked around five years old but was actually eight. He looked younger than he actually was because he didn't have the proper nutrients because stores refused to sell anything to him. At a young age, he had taken to hunting and trapping instead of going to the stores, he realized they would never respect him enough to sell anything to him. The boy's name was Naruto Uzumaki. He had been treated this way for so long that he couldn't remember when it started. Both of his parents were supposedly dead and the only people that seemed to care about him were too busy to protect him. These people also happened to be some of the highest ranking people in the village. The Hokage, several ANBU that Naruto only knew as their code names, Dog, Cat, and Weasel suddenly appeared in the alleyway and started defending the young boy. Anybody that dared defy them were swiftly killed and the crowd was arrested and taken to the prison.
Meanwhile, Naruto had blacked out and woke up in a dark, damp place. "Where am I?" He said while slowly getting up. He appeared to be in a sewer with pipes along the wall, he quickly follow the left side of the wall only to appear in front of several large metal bars. At the middle of the bars was a piece of paper with the kanji for 'Seal' written on it. (Written as 判) "Hello?" He yelled into the cage-like structure before him. Suddenly a woman around five foot four walked up to the bars. "Who are you?" She asked in a commanding tone. "Hi, my name is Naruto Uzumaki!" Proclaimed Naruto, who gave a bow showing his respect. "May I ask your name?" Asked Naruto politely. The woman calmed down a bit and blushed when he bowed; she then said "My name is Kazumi, the Kyuubi that attacked Konoha eight years ago." She said slightly displeased about something. Naruto noticed her displeasure and acted quickly. "What's wrong, Kazumi, you seem sad?" Naruto asked. "I'm mad at myself for attacking Konoha eight years ago, you see, I was being controlled by someone with the Sharingan." Kazumi said quietly. "Well, if you were being controlled, then it's not your fault, Kazumi, I forgive you." Naruto said with a smirk. "But that's not all, Naruto; I am also the reason why you are always treated so badly. When the fourth hokage sealed me inside you, word got out and the villagers got scared of you." Kazumi said with a sad tone. "If you really feel so bad about it, would you help me train to become stronger?" Naruto said in a hopeful tone. "Of course, but it looks like you're about to wake up, so ask your Jiji for scrolls and books on ninjutsu, fuinjutsu, kenjutsu, taijutsu, and genjutsu. From now on we'll be able to talk to each other through a mental link, just think something to me and I will hear it. Goodbye for now, Naruto-kun." Kazumi teased.
Naruto suddenly woke up and tried to open his eyes but quickly shut them, due to the lights of the hospital room he was in. The hokage had taken him to this hospital room and had been sitting in the room with him ever since. The hokage's name was Hiruzen Sarutobi. He was more commonly known as 'The Professor' or just 'Hokage-Sama'. As soon as Naruto noticed the hokage, he spoke. "Hi Jiji-sama!" Naruto said, while Hiruzen looked at him and ran over to ask him if he was alright and if he was okay from the attack on him. Naruto quickly said he was fine and turned to his Jiji. "Jiji-sama, can I have some scrolls on ninjutsu, kenjutsu, fuinjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu?" Naruto asked. Slightly startled, Hiruzen asked him why he was interested in that sort of stuff. Naruto quickly said he wanted to become strong so he won't get picked on by the villagers anymore. Hiruzen agreed and said as soon as he was able to leave, he'd give him the scrolls and buy him new clothes and supplies.
Chapter One End.
