A/N: This is my first fan fiction that I have actually put on paper so I hope you like it.

Chapter 1: Naruto Auditore

"It must be killed!" "Destroy it!" "It will kill us all!!" These were some of the things that were heard from the council in regards to the fate of one baby named Naruto Uzumaki. Hiruzen Sarutobi, the third Hokage of Konohagakure, sighed again, remembering what the council had said. They believed that the boy was the demon fox Kyuubi that was sealed inside of him, but the truth was he just contained the demon. He wasn't the foul creature. Hiruzen sat at his desk thinking as the boy slept in a crib beside his desk. "Minato, what can I do for your son? Hiruzen thought . "Most of the council wants him killed and no one will adopt him. For even though I have outlawed speaking of Naruto's predicament I'm afraid people will talk anyway and fear and hate him for it ." He sighed once more and said to no one, "If only there was someone who could take him away from the village and protect him for a time. Perhaps then the village would realize that he is just a child."

Elsewhere at the gates to the village:

A man in his mid twenties wearing a white hooded shirt with a black cape on his left side walked to the gates. "What is your business in the village?" The gate guards asked. The man looked at them and said in a foreign accent "I am here to check on some friends of mine . I heard they were to have a child soon." The guards nodded and asked, "What is your name?" He looked at them and said "It's Ezio…Ezio Auditore." He then looked towards the village and asked "Have you heard any news of Kushina Uzumaki?" The guards looked at each other and regarded him with an almost sad look. "I am afraid you will need to head to the tower and speak to the Hokage about that. Just head straight and the path will take you to the tower." Ezio looked at the guards and said "thank you." He then left for the tower to speak of the fate of his friend Kushina and her husband and child. "I hope at least the child made it out of this devastation alive." Ezio thought as he saw the destruction brought on by the Kyuubi no Kitsune.

Ten minutes later Hokage's office:

There was a knock on the door and after an "enter" the secretary came in, bowed to Hiruzen, and said "Hokage-sama, there is a man by the name of Ezio Auditore here to see you." At the name the aged Hokage perked up a little. He looked at the secretary and said "Go ahead and send him in." The secretary bowed again and left. A few moments later Ezio walked in and shut the door. "What has become of Kushina and her son?" he asked. Hiruzen looked at Ezio and said, "I am afraid that Kushina is dead, Ezio…" At this Ezio bowed his head a little and a look of sadness came to his eyes "..But her son still lives" Hiruzen said as he motioned towards the crib that held Naruto. Ezio walked over and looked at the sleeping baby and noticed the resemblance to a certain blond man and said "He looks so much like Minato ."

"Yes but the people of the village want him killed for fear he will release the kyuubi sealed inside of him." said the Hokage. Ezio looked at Hiruzen for a moment then asked "What do we do?" The Hokage looked out the window at the village then said "He will be taken away from the village so that he..."

"YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS!!" Ezio all but yelled "He is just a child and you would abandon him by banishing him from the village? Well, you're insane, Sarutobi you can go to..."

"ENOUGH EZIO!" the hokage shouted "Let me finish. I want you to take him and raise him to be like you, an assassin and then bring him back." Ezio looked at the hokage and sighed "how long?"

"Until he is ten. then he can finish his last two years at the academy and become a ninja, then I can protect him." Replied Hiruzen. Ezio looked at the hokage and nodded. "I will need some material to teach him the basics of chakra since I know nothing of how to work it." Ezio said. Hiruzen nodded and opened a drawer on his desk. He pulled out three scrolls; giving them to Ezio he said "These will teach him the basics so he will know enough to be with the children of his age and not be last." Ezio took the scrolls and stuffed them in his pouch on his side then picked up Naruto gently and said "I hope I can raise their son right and make him greater than any one of us has ever been." Hiruzen looked at Ezio holding Naruto and said "I will take care of the paperwork signing you as a living relative of Naruto's. Hopefully when you return, the village will accept him for who he is but, I will have a hard time trying to keep the council from digging into this matter." Ezio nodded then went to the door and looked behind him and said "Buena Fortuna" before exiting the room, intent on leaving the village for ten years.

As Ezio was walking towards the village gates to leave he was stopped by a man with silver hair wearing a mask that covered the lower half of his face. "Master Ezio it has been a long time…I trust you already talked to hokage-sama?" Ezio looked at the man and said "Yes I have already seen him he told me everything, Kakashi." Kakashi looked at Ezio with a sad look and said "I can't believe they're gone; Kushina and sensei." Ezio looked at Kakashi with a small smile on his face and replied "Yes they are gone but, a part of them still lives on in their son." Kakashi then looked at the baby that he was holding and asked "Is that him? What is his name?" Ezio then smiled and said "His name is Naruto but keep what you know a secret we don't need all of Iwa coming after me just to get the little child." Kakashi nodded and asked "What will you do now?" "I will take Naruto away from the village and will start to train him to be like an assassin. Then after his tenth birthday we will return so he can enter the academy to become a ninja." Kakashi nodded and looked at the village gates and said "I am sure that the hokage will allow me to send letters every once in a while to keep in touch and check on Naruto."

"Yes I will send you a letter first and give you our location to make things a little easier." Ezio then began walking towards the gate and said "I suppose I will see you in ten years, Kakashi. Until then, Buena Fortuna." Ezio then waved behind him and walked away not to return for ten years.

As Ezio was walking down the road on his way to a home he bought several years ago on the edge of fire country he looked at Naruto and smiled as he said "Well Naruto starting today you shall be known as Naruto Auditore." Little Naruto then stirred and opened his eyes and looked at Ezio who looked at Naruto and smiled. Naruto's eyes then became watery and he began to cry and scream. Ezio then sighed and said "Maybe this is going to be harder than I first thought." He then thought for a moment and said aloud "I should probably call in some help from my mother and sister." Naruto's crying just got louder as he went. Then he thought "But I will still have to fend for myself until they get here and that won't be for two weeks at the least." Ezio sighed again for realizing how daunting the task of raising Naruto was now becoming. He then tried to comfort Naruto and get him to stop crying.

Back with the Hokage:

Hiruzen looked out his window at the gate that Ezio and Naruto had left through and puffed on his pipe. "When you return I hope Naruto will be accepted by the people, but even if he isn't I believe he'll be greater than any ninja to ever come out of Konoha." The hokage then looked toward the setting sun and added "Good Fortune to you as well Ezio I think you will need it."
