Disclaimer. I do NOT own Naruto, This story is purely Fan made.
I scream out for help but no one can hear me now, Why was this all happening to me, since that day nothing had seemed right, Happiness was nowhere to be found. I had to wonder to myself if any of my old friends even remembered who I am. I remember a time when we would have died to protect each other, and I wonder if they would still put their lives on the line to maybe save mine, I push aside these thoughts even if they would that doesn't matter now.
~~~~~~~**Flashback**~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Resengan"
Naruto ran towards his opponent, This fight had been going on for hours, it was one Root ANBU after another, Danzou had managed a Coup de tat over Konoha and was now a Tyrannical leader, Naruto had come alone to try to take the village back. He had to have been crazy coming into a fight like this alone.
He thrust his hand forward the attack hit, the ANBU member flew backwards and through the wall of a nearby building, He looked to make sure the ANBU member wasn't getting up, he made a mental tally 36 down, only what seemed like hundreds to go. He was starting to feel a little bit of fatigue nagging at him, he pushed it aside telling himself he had to push himself if he was going to save Konoha. The civilians needed to be free, the Shinobi could return once he had overturned the rule of this tyrannical bastard Danzou.
Another 3 ROOT members appeared in front of him, This fight was out of hand. He made a hand seal in front of him and created 3 shadow clones. He ordered them to charge in the shadow clones took off in a blur of orange and black motion. The Root members dispatched 2 of them and realized they had lost track of the Third clone, they turned just in time to see a clone holding a Resengan about to hit them, The center man of the 3 man squad tried to dodge but it was too late as he was met firmly by the blue orb and sent backwards coughing up blood, The clone vanished in a puff of white smoke.
The Root members turned back to the Original Naruto and saw him standing with a Resenshuriken in hand. They charged hoping they could overtake him with speed. Naruto had trained long hours to use this attack right, but they only knew what the file told them which meant that he could only use it close range, This however wasn't true, after long training it had become a long range attack he could throw the Giant Wind shuriken and he did just that, if only these men didn't have the masks, he would have paid to see the shock painted on their faces when the attack landed just in front of them. Naruto scratched 3 more down on his mental tally, he reassured himself that this plan was in fact Insane.
It wouldn't be long until he was at the Hokage tower now though, He knew Danzou was watching and lifted a hand toward the window of the Hokage office and gave him the finger before disappearing in a blur and dispatching another 2 ANBU members before continuing the journey toward the Tower in the center of town. He Realized as much as he didn't want to have to by the end of this fight he was going to have to use The Kyuubi's Chakra.
~~~~~~~~~~~~*20 minutes later The Hokage Tower*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Naruto stood in the entry room of the tower panting, He had brought his mental tally up to 75 He took one last deep breath before regaining his resolve and Running up the stairs and down the halls toward the Hokage office that Bastard Danzou was gonna pay for trying to take his home and bend it to his will.
Naruto Kicked the doors of the office open and Danzou stood behind the desk staring out the window and Slowly turned toward Naruto before speaking
"Welcome Naruto I've been expecting you."
"Yea, Now I'm gonna kick your sorry ass for what you've done."
"No I have a different plan"
"Huh?"
At that very moment with a puff of smoke and a little fire appeared an ANBU member that looked different from the ones he'd already fought. This one wasn't wearing the standard ANBU gear, his outfit consisted of dark combat clothing, Tight fit pants that allowed for quick movement, a form fitting battle shirt that hugged to his skin long sleeves and his face covered by the Standard ANBU mask, The man had two swords strapped to his back.
"You Die here, My best officer will kill you and you will fail at your quest to get Konoha back."
"We will see about that. I'll kick this guys ass then you're next Danzou."
With this Naruto formed 2 shadow clones and each of them made a resengan and charges at the man in the middle of the room. The impassive ANBU rocked his weight back and twisted out of the way of the first Naruto and ducked into a sweeping kick hitting Naruto's shins and the clone vanished a puff of smoke, in seemingly an instant the Second clone was impaled by one of the mans swords, Naruto thought to himself "This is impossible. I didn't even see him pull his sword out, How fast is this guy"
Naruto pulled a Kunai out of his hip pouch and Charged the man Head on, in a blur of motion they locked blades and fought for Dominance. Naruto was managing to force the ANBU elite back a little before ducking to avoid the mans second sword. He had barely managed to see the mans motion to pull the sword. This guy was too fast. Naruto Shot a quick thought into his mindscape "Kyuubi I know this is annoying But I need your help."
"Why is it Kit that you only ever talk to me when YOU need something you never ask if I need something You never visit just to talk, It's always help me this, Give me your strength that."
"This isn't the time dammit. Kyuubi , Do you really want to die?"
"Okay Kit on the condition Me and you NEED to talk after this is over, Now get Fighting Kit."
Naruto blinked the ANBU didn't miss the change his eyes had undergone from Cerulean Blue to a Blood lust Red. Naruto Starting forcing the man back again in a blur of kicks and punches, after forcing the man back most of the way across the room a hit Finally connected and the ANBU officer crashed through the Hokage's desk sending papers all over the room, The ANBU stood up just as impassive looking as before and put away his second sword and started a series of on handed seals with his no open left hand. After a second the whole room seemed to get Heavier.
Naruto charged in only to stop and jump backwards realizing his movements had slowed, His first though was Genjutsu He made a hand seal "KAI"
Nothing had changed, The man Laughed and spoke. "This is not Genjutsu I have manipulated the gravity in this room, I have trained under high gravity for years, while it makes you slower, and more sluggish, I can fight as if nothing has changed at all, This will be your end"
The ANBU charged at him with blinding speed. A blur of kicks piled into Naruto's chest and face. One good kick to the chin sent him backwards into the doors of the room and he crashed through them. Pain shot through his body, Within a second the man was back upon him. More hits more pain, Naruto called more from the Kyuubi, Swirling red chakra began to form around him The man lifted a hand that started to glow a blueish purple and jabbed it into Naruto's torso and yelled "Seal of the Seasons" The Chakra from Kyuubi immediately drained from Naruto's Chakra coils. This was bad He was on his own from here on in and he knew it, he was exhausted He was in pain. Another hard hit landed and Naruto Screamed in Pain. He cried out for help Knowing that no one would hear his cries.
Naruto felt a sharp pain in his temple and the world went black. He woke up inside of his mindscape. he wandered down the familiar halls of his own mind, Without thinking, he wandered until he realized he had unconsciously made his way to Kyuubi's cell. The Kyuubi paced back and forth inside of his cage, A new seal was on the bars beneath the one that had originally locked him inside this place all those years ago. He read the words on the seal "Summer. Winter. Spring. Autumn." Then he remembered the mans attack during the fight he had just endured. The seal of the seasons huh?
"Kyuubi."
"Hey Kit. Looks like we lost I Did all I could but this damn second seal cut me off."
"I know Kyuubi. Is there any way you know of to break this seal?"
"There is one but it's dangerous, and you must do it from inside this mindscape so you have to do it before you wake up. If your entire being isn't in here then You won't be able to break it."
"Well then Hurry how do we Break this seal"
"Calm down Kit. you won't wake up for a while, My Chakra is sealed so I can't Heal the injuries, So you're Healing like a normal person."
"Just great, But could you tell me how to break this seal."
"Yes, Sit down and close your eyes, The first step is kind of like meditation, You have to clear your mind and focus ONLY on the task of breaking the seal, Now this seal is meant to seal demonic Chakra, Meaning yours can still pass the other way. Though there will be resistance from the seal, It won't stop yours like it does mine. It will simply hinder yours a little."
"Okay that answers part of the question."
"After you have cleared your mind you must force your chakra into my chakra coils. Reverse from the normal flow we have from me to you. I am well practiced at adding my chakra to yours but where you haven't had to feed me yours before this will be hard to do and may take several tries, The objective you have to accomplish is exhaust all of your chakra into my system. The seal can only be broken by the Demon it is sealing but it can only be broken with Human chakra, so the basic idea is I have to break this seal but I need your chakra to do so."
"So what you are telling me is that this seal cuts off demonic chakra, so that a demon can be sealed but the only way to break it is for the sealed demon to acquire chakra from A Human entity."
"The other part is That where I'm sealed inside of you the chakra I have to use is yours No one elses will break the seal. The idea is to seal a Demon and the only way to let the demon be free is for the person that contains it to let it free, this usually involves a contract that states the demon will serve the container after it's release, Unlike the seal you have that seals us together until death the seal of seasons is only meant to be temporary, and if the container is to die the demon is released, The seal that you have with me from your father wo.."
"MY FATHER?"
"Oh...yea I forgot to mention that before didn't I....You're father was Minato Namikazi, The Yondaime Hokage and hero of Konoha. your mother was the Princess of the land of whirlpool Kushina Uzumaki, You were given your mothers family name for your own protection."
"Why didn't...Why didn't Tsunade tell me..."
"I'm sure that she intended to in time, when she felt it was the right time to tell you I Slipped and told you so now you know, But as I was trying to say. The seal your father gave you works differently if you Die I die with you. In addition, If the seal is ever released it will kill you. So there is no way out of here, I tried to find a way, I planned on tricking you even into removing it without telling you the consequences but luckily for you, I've taken a liking to you Kit. your actions speak more than words could ever tell for your character as a person and I have accepted that you are a worthy container"
"My actions?"
"Yes remember I'm inside your mindscape all the time, when you aren't here everything that happens to you outside in the real world is displayed like a movie theater occasionally I enjoy watching what you are doing, By the way you made a hell of a messy entrance through those ANBU getting to Danzou's office."
"It's not Danzou's office It's Lady Tsunade's office."
"Of course it is, But last I checked she's still a captive and now so are we and no one else is coming to save us so until you break this damn Seal it is Danzou's."
Naruto closed his eyes as he sat down and started to clear his mind, He smiled at the thought of being the Yondaime's son. He quickly pushed the thought aside clearing his mind, and focused on pushing his chakra backwards through it's coils and into the Kyuubi's mass of chakra, The pain was unbearable, He felt like his body was being torn apart form the inside out. after a moment He lost his focus and opened his eyes as the flow of Chakra returned to normal he felt the pain go away"
"You didn't tell me this was going to hurt."
"You didn't ask did you Kit? Now back to breaking the seal Ignore the Pain you're a Shinobi You can handle it Kit."
Naruto closed his eyes again and started pushing the chakra back The pain returned and he winced but pushed it off the pain was getting worse the more he pushed back towards the Kyuubi this was unbearable. No wonder they used this seal it hurt so much to reverse that the Demon would almost surely be locked away until the container died. Naruto though wasn't your normal person and pushed through the pain the pain started fading after a while but he started to feel light headed, Dizzy the world was spinning. The Kyuubi noticed the change in the way he was sitting and spoke.
"Almost there Kit I told you this is dangerous after you finish you will be dead until the seal is broken and your chakra returns to you, so if I can't break the seal then we will both die. If we do nothing though we will die by Danzou's hand. So please hang in there Kit"
Naruto was silent as he kept pushing the chakra into Kyuubi Exhaustion hit but he kept pushing then there was nothing. He fell to the floor depleted of chakra and unable to conjure more until the seal was broken there inside of his mindscape he was trapped he would die if the Kyuubi couldn't break that seal soon.
The Kyuubi immediately sat to work pushing Naruto's chakra into the seal while speaking out a series of seals that would be needed, The Kyuubi lacked hands though he had realized once the seal was in place he was no longer capable of manipulating his form, so though he had a human state he could not use it, he had long ago learned to use seals without actually making the seals he could use them simply by speaking their name and their effects would come along with it, at least that was when he was in this Demonic form. Kyuubi concentrated and pushed hard into the seal with the Chakra Naruto had channeled back into him though he didn't know if it was enough.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*10 minutes later*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Naruto's eyes snapped open as his chakra flow returned. He looked up at the massive cage doors of the Kyuubi. The Demon fox was sitting near the back of his cage with a pleasant grin on his face. He had managed to break that seal Now he was working on healing Naruto's wounds. "Naruto I'm healing your body You will be awake in a few minutes, They think my Chakra is sealed still so we have the element of surprise Don't go back to fight Danzou for now we get out of Konoha and make a plan, and I will help you train, we need to be stronger before we can do this alone."
Naruto nodded and a moment later His mindscape obscured as he woke up in his physical body and looked around, there was one ANBU guard at the door of his cell, The guard wore a standard issue uniform for the ANBU members, He knew where he was though. The ANBU complex wasn't that far from the Hokage Tower and he was locked in one of the basement cells, He had been down here before escorting a prisoner to their cell, He was chained to the wall, they had Chakra seals on them so he couldn't break them...on his own anyway
"Kyuubi, Let's do this"
"You got it kit" Naruto's chakra exploded around him along with the Kyuubi's. The ANBU looked back into the cell and stood rigid as Naruto broke the chains holding him to the cell wall and grabbed onto the manacles that were still around his wrist and broken them off with the help of the Kyuubi's chakra, He had overcome seals like this before with the Kyuubi's help with both of their chakras the it was more than the seals could prohibit.
Naruto charged forward forming a resengan and blew the door to his cell of the hinges, The ANBU was knocked back into a wall and didn't get up right away, Naruto made a break for it toward the surface levels, to make his grand escape. He ran out the front doors into the sunlight and immediately darted into a dark alley near the building the started to conceal his chakra, making his way quietly and stealthily toward the east gate, the main gates were too well guarded even though that's where he had made his entrance he was far too exhausted to take that punishment again.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*6 hours later a few miles outside of Konoha*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"We did it Kyuubi, we made it out alive."
"Yes we did, now rest Kit, we have a long road ahead of us and a lot to talk about and a lot of training to do, and a short time to do it, I'm setting us a 3 week deadline to become strong enough for us to take Danzou out of power, I know that isn't a lot of time so rest now while you still can this is the last good sleep you will get until after we attack."
"Okay Kyuubi. Oh, and Kyuubi?"
"Yes Kit?"
"Thank you"
"Don't worry about it Kit. This is only the beginning you can thank me when this is over."
~~~~~~~~*The Next Morning - Inside Naruto's Mindscape*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kyuubi had transformed himself into his Human form, He stood taller than Naruto by a few inches, He wore form light combat pants and boots, A Tank top covered with a long black trench coat, his hair was red and down to his shoulder blades, his eyes glowed red, His face was rigid as if it was from a stone statue. He had decided to take this form to make Naruto more comfortable during their talks, Which he figured would be by soon. It was morning Naruto should be waking up soon he thought, and he knew the first thing Naruto was going to do is ask what they would be doing for the day.
Naruto Opened his eyes groggy from sleep. After a minute he sat up and grabbed his things. He moved to nearby tree and sat down and entered the familiar halls of his mindscape. He walked down the corridors toward the cell Kyuubi was locked in. When he arrived he looked in shock at the Kyuubi, this was the first time he had seen the fox demon in his human form and it was a surprise to him just how Human the Fox could look, well aside from his eyes.
"Kyuubi?"
"Yes Kit who else would be inside your mindscape, we are the only two being in here"
"What are we going to be doing first today? It's our first day of the 3 week training."
"Yes but before we start with your training I would like you to sit and talk with me, I have a question first though, You do realize if you give me permission I can mold this room to be different, I could bend it to my will instead of it being a prison I could make it into something a little more inviting, But I need your permission since it is part of your mind."
"Yes Kyuubi You can change your room however you see fit You do have to spend a lifetime with me and you are helping me out so I don't see why it would be a problem"
"Thank you kit this cell has been getting more depressing with time"
That having been said Kyuubi closed his eyes and Naruto watched as the cell became a Beautiful Living room with a fireplace, To Chairs in the center faced each other with with a coffee table between them. Kyuubi opened his eyes and motioned for Naruto to come in and take a seat in the chair across from his own.
"Naruto I know that you might have some question about your family, but before I answer those there is something that I would like to tell you."
"And that is?"
"The attack on Konoha what was it 18 years ago now?"
"well Almost I'll be 18 by the time we attack Danzou again but as of right now it's been 17 years 11 months and 24 days, I'll be 18 in just about a week"
"Okay well I didn't attack Konoha of my own will"
"What do you mean Kyuubi?"
"I was summoned from the Demon Realm into yours, and as with any summoning, I must obey whoever summoned me. I was Ordered to attack the City of Konoha. It was their will not mine that caused us to be forced into each others lives, If I hadn't been summoned than you would not have been cursed with being my container, I could have continues living my life inside of the Demon realm."
"Who would do that who summoned you to our realm?"
"Their name was Uchiha Madara. He was beaten by the first Hokage in the Valley of the end where you fought with Sasuke. They fought for three days to decide who would be named the first Hokage, The Winner was as you know Tsunade's grandfather. The Uchiha Summoned me to take revenge on Konoha for not recognizing him as their First Hokage."
"Uchiha..."
"Yes he was The Head of the Uchiha clan at the time. And was the strongest of the Uchiha."
"Okay."
"Now you may ask whatever questions you see fit either about the attack on Konoha or your parents."
"What happened to my mother, no one ever told me who she was or where she is."
"Well Who she is I already told you, Kushina Uzumaki Princess of Whirlpool country. As for where she is, I'm sorry Kit she died giving birth to you."
Naruto's eyes went to the floor saddened by this news he was hoping that she may be alive somewhere in the world and that he had living family somewhere.
"Your father of course died sealing me inside of you and I'm sorry for that Kit, I am the reason that you are an orphan."
"Well you didn't have a choice Kyuubi."
"I know it doesn't make it any easier to know it's because of me."
"No It's because of Uchiha Madara. Now Kyuubi Where are we going to be training?"
"I'm glad you ask, You're gonna have to be insane to agree to this, But I propose that we train In the Demon realm, The fact that you have my demonic Chakra gives you access I'll just have to teach you how to Enter My realm."
"Whoa WHAT?!?!?!?! You want me to train in the demon world?"
"Yes kit, Time passes differently there, This 3 weeks just because a little over a year to train if we are in my Realm. When you come back your physical body will only be 3 weeks older but your skills will be one year more advanced. There are dangers of course, Though I did mention you would have to be insane to agree."
"Well it is to save Konoha I'll do it."
"Okay" Kyuubi took out a scroll and sat it on the table and drew a seal onto it. "You will need to make this seal on a scroll and use your blood and our chakra when you add them you will be moved into my realm."
"Thank you for helping me Kyuubi."
"Kit don't thank me till this is over alright? Now go and make the scroll and get us into my realm. We can talk more once we are there."
"Okay Kyuubi I'll talk to you after we get there"
Naruto opened his eyes and pulled out a pen and a scroll and made a seal that looked like the one Kyuubi had drawn. He sat the scroll on the ground and bit his thumb then wiped the blood across the scroll and sat his pal flat on top of it and channeled his chakra into the scroll and for a second he felt dizzy. When he opened his eyes again he was in a field that was totally different from the ones near Konoha, the plant life was greener the little wildlife he could see was bigger and there was enough chakra in the air to make him feel like he was suffocating.
"Kyuubi we are here."
A moment later the Human image of Kyuubi was standing next to him. Naruto stared in shock, How was Kyuubi outside of his body?
"Oh did I forget to mention While we are in my realm I can manifest outside of the seal? However if you are to leave I will be pulled back inside of your minds prison, and If you are to will be back in I also will be forced to go back into the prison but unless you object to it I can manifest myself physically here."
"Wow, you should have told me that before."
"Well it makes training you easier to we won't have to communicate by our mind link we can just speak to each other."
Kyuubi lifted his and pointed to the west. "About 4 miles that way is my home village here I was the ruler of the village until I was summoned by Madara."
"You were their leader?"
"Yes Kit I am the ruler here in the demon world. Well at least. I was."
"Should we go that way?"
"Yes that is our first stop thought I really advise you let me talk when they ask how the hell I am back. They might just try to kill you otherwise"
"Okay let's go"
The two started their short journey to the village the Kyuubi spoke of. The village was built much like Konoha and similar in size, The gates were guarded by several soldiers that looked much like Kyuubi though their features didn't look as strong as his.
When they two of them approached the gate two of the guards readied their weapons and blocked the gate with them before speaking "Who are you and what is your business here"
After a moment Kyuubi grinned and spoke "I'm insulted after only 3 centuries you've forgotten who I am already?"
The guard on his left looked at him carefully taking in his features trying to figure out who this man was. The guard on his right looked for a second before his eyes went wide "HOLY SHIT IT'S KYUUBI NO KITSUNE"
The first guards eyes widened in sudden recognition and he retracted his weapon quickly. "I'm so sorry Kyuubi, but in my defense it has been 312 years since I last saw you."
"It's okay I was in their world for a while, and In about a year I have to go back." Kyuubi was motioning toward Naruto.
"Why do you have to leave again You just got home."
"Well I'm sure I'll return more often now But I am bound to this kid, He is the one who has kept me alive the last 300 years, and It didn't feel like that long, Or have you forgotten the time difference out there it's been 18 years."
"Well It's good to have you back, You should hurry to the Tower Kyuubi, Tell Karina that you have returned."
"Karina is there?"
"Yes she took over after you left that night."
"Okay I'll do that right away then I'll be training this young one."
Kyuubi motioned for Naruto to follow him as he started walking toward the center of town. The villagers stared in disbelief and some even in fear as Kyuubi passed by, From what Naruto could gather he had been a good ruler but his strength scared even his own people.
Kyuubi walked through the front doors of The capitol Tower in the center of town, the building looked much like the Hokage tower in Konoha With the exception that is was a light blue color Kyuubi told him that the blue was easier on the eyes than the red of The Hokage tower, then continued up the stairs and down the hall to the main office. Kyuubi stood outside for a moment in deep thought before he walked over to the door He put his hand up to knock on it them put his hand down and grinned he had an idea.
He walked over to Naruto then whispered in his ear "I want you to knock on the door when she tells you to some in address her as Karina-sama and tell her you know the whereabouts of Kyuubi No Kitsune, her long lost mate, When she asks where I'll make my entrance okay?"
Naruto grinned as he realized the Kyuubi liked theatrics. Naruto walked to the door and knocked on the door firmly, after a moment he heard a feminine voice from the other side "Come in" He opened the door and walked in slowly with his head down. The voice spoke again though he had not looked up to see her "Who are you and what is your business with me." Naruto Lifted his head and grinned as he spoke "Hello Karina-Sama My name is Uzumaki Naruto, and My business is I know the Location Of Kyuubi No Kitsune, you're mate."
Karina's face turned to one of pure shock. once she processed what she was just told she growled "Where the hell is he and how would you know where he is, He has been gone over 300 years and you expect me to believe someone like you knows where he is?"
A second later there was a laugh from the door and Karina looked away from Naruto to see who was at the door. He eyes got bigger and she screamed "KYUUBI" The Man in the door just smiled and walked into the room "Did you miss me Karina?"
"Did I miss you? Are you kidding of course I missed you dammit, what the hell happened"
Kyuubi explained the events of that night he was summoned and how he was sealed inside of a human boy the son of Minato. Her eyes widened at the name Naruto made note to ask the Kyuubi how they knew of his father here. After a long Kyuubi explained that he was back for one year to train Naruto then they were going back to Naruto's World her eyes saddened but she nodded her acceptance knowing that she didn't have a choice but to let him go, But he did tell her he would be back more often from now on. They walked out of her office and Naruto followed Kyuubi to an open field near the edge of the village and told Naruto "Welcome to the training grounds, Let's see what you can do Young one."
The two of them Dropped into their different fighting stances time slowed down it seemed a gentle breeze made it's way across Naruto's face and Kyuubi Finally yelled
"Begin."
