Hello, this is my first fan fiction developed on this site, so constructive criticism is preferred over flames…

Chapter One: Fateful Night

'Damn, just my luck getting stuck in the middle of town at night… especially on my birthday…' thought a easily recognizable blonde.

Today is his 5th birthday. Usually most kids would be having parties and presents with their parents and friends. However for this kid, fate is not so kind. He never knew his parents, however based on his appearances, he easily figured out his heritage. I mean blonde hair and blue eyes, how many people have those features?

The only one that came to mind was… the "Yondaime Hokage," Minato Namikaze. His mother however is of great mystery, and nowhere does it say that his father had a lover.

Nevermind his heritage, right now, for Naruto, staying away from the demented mob was his only thing on his mind. He knew why he was being chased as well. The whiskers… as well as the spiral pattern on his navel was a clear giveaway. He was the container of the Kyuubi, or the Nine-tailed fox.

Naruto dashed around a corner, and unfortunately into a dead-end alley. Taking a deep breath, he analyzed the situation. The mob was hot behind his trail… so backing out and running was probably not a good idea… but he was also stuck in a dead-end, so going forward was impossible as well. His only conceivable plan of action was to hide… somehow.

He looked around frantically, until he found a dumpster. 'Not the cleanest hiding spot, but it'll do,' thought Naruto. Naruto took a small dash towards the dumpster, and slid in quietly, as the mob's footsteps cornered into his position. Little did he know, their was a pair of two eyes, with leaked of malice.

The mob turned toward the dead-end, but slowly walked away from the alley. Naruto, hearing the slow marching dissipating, let out a breath he wasn't aware of holding. 'Phew… that was close… idiotic villagers…'

Before he knew it, the lid of the dumpster was opened, and he was thrown out into the dark alley. A lone light in the alley, revealed the persons attire. He had brown hair, which was kept short and neat. A Konoha hitai-ate spanned across his forehead. A black mask covered his mouth and nose. A black undershirt complimenting a standard issue Chunin vest along with black ninja pants and combat boots.

"W-who are y-you!" yelled a slightly scared Naruto.

The man cackled evily, "I am your worst nightmare kid, or should I say demon?"

'Damn, of all the people to attack me, it had to be a ninja…' thought Naruto. The chunin continued laughing manically, causing Naruto to question the mans sanity.

"I can feel the fear comin' off ya' kid, gooooood…" said the man, "Now, how should I kill you? Hmmm?"

After that sentence, Nartuto was seriously thinking that this would be the last day on earth. Praying silently to Kami, he wishes for his life to continue.

"Enough… TIME TO DIE DEMON!" yelled the man as he lunged forward with a kunai, aiming towards the chest, hoping for a quick kill. Naruto, side-steps quickly out of the way, and sprinting towards the street. The chunin recovers from the near hit, and pursues the kid. Throwing multiple kunai and shuriken, but sadly missing… (Makes you wonder how he became chunin. However one stray kunai lodges into the blondes leg, disabling the leg, as he skids across the ground.

Wincing, the blonde attempts to stand but falls down, finding it very hard to stand. 'Damn, damn, damn, damn! I'm so dead… why me!' Naruto mentally yelled.

"Not much of a chase demon… but that matters none… NOW DIE!"
