Disclaimer: This spiel? Okies…I. Do. Not .Own. Naruto in any aspect except possibly the plot.

Alright then…this is my first fic…so just bear with me…kapish?

Summary: What if theKyuubi and the loss of Naruto's home and friends cause him to go insane? To change in ways no one ever thought he could? His enemies better beware. And is there a force even more powerful and dangerous than Akatsuki lurking in the shadows?

Authors Notes: Pain is Pain….no Nagato. Oh…this will prolly be shonen ai. If any are opposed to this then please be considerate to those who are interested and go find something else to occupy your time instead of wasting mine. Thank you. Also…some of the Akatsuki are alive. Jiraiya is dead sadly. I made up some of my own jutsu.

"Blah blah blah"= Kyuubi

Nekura

Chapter 1

The devastation that was once the beautiful Village of the Leaves caused a pang of emptiness to lance through Naruto. Pain's body lay before him, broken and mangled. He closed his eyes tiredly. He felt drained of vitality and the fire that usually drove him extinguished. He had tried to sense the chakra signatures of his friends and allies but nothing seemed to emanate life.

Suddenly, he gripped his head and wailed as daggers of agony ripped through his skull. The insidious whispers of the fox started to echo in his mind.

"You have nothing left…so why continue to resist me? Have I not lent you my power to try to save your friends?" the fox whispered with faux hurt. Scowling, Naruto retaliated with scathing words.

"I didn't ask for your power you damn fox!" "Ahh but you did my pathetic vessel…the negative emotions you have harbored for so long are no longer bound by the love you held for your friends since they have perished for not even I could sense their souls from within," Kyuubi informed maliciously.

Naruto's eyes widened the true reality of the situation sank in. There truly wasn't any life within miles of where he was standing amid the rubble of his childhood home.

He was alone. Totally and utterly alone. Kyuubi seemed to purr at his vessels anguish. He gripped his hair, hunching over as though that could stop his nausea. "No...No…I can't be alone," he kept saying over and over. Was this how Sasuke felt when he lost his family to his brother? "Oh Kami-sama," Naruto choked out.

"Yes?" Kyuubi said with a widening of his canines.

"Fuck…you…," Naruto thought angrily.

Alone. Alone. All alone.

Screams rent the sky that seemed to reach the ends of the world. For miles around the people felt

One Year Later

Rain pounded the earth as a small, cloaked figure walked steadily on. In the shadow of the hood there glowed a cobalt blue eye and a blood red eye. A slim katana of silver and black was slung on his back. Unpredictability seemed to cling to him even as danger seemed to haunt his every step. Every once and a while a sinister chuckle was uttered from his crimson lips edged with sharp, white canines.

Amegakure, the Village Hidden in the Rain, was known to house certain people and information of which he sought. It was here this person would stop.

As he approached the large gates, the lazy sentries on either side of it leaped up from their light dozes to apprehend him. "Who seeks entrance? State your purpose," the dark haired sentry on the right demanded. They eyed his appearance critically.

Raising his head, he stared squarely at them. They gasped upon seeing his odd eyes. But what made their blood run cold was the wide, sinister grin that spoke of insanity and an easy willingness to kill. When he spoke it was like music but edged with a rough tenor that was animalistic in nature.

"You need not to know of my purpose…for what good is information to the deceased?"

Quicker than the untrained eye could follow he flashed before their eyes and plunged his blade through their hearts. Gurgling, they dropped soundlessly onto the ground. Raising the blood drenched blade to his lips he ran his lips on the edge and slit open his skin so that his blood mixed with their own before licking it sensually. "Hmm, blood with water dilutes," he murmured before sheathing Hakkyou Fuuten.

When entering the village, he blended into the shadows. No need to cause more strife to alert to his presence the foxy had stated. He pouted but had complied lest he invoke its wrath which would alert anyone within a hundred miles with his presence. The main building made of towering, dull gray stone was set farther into the village than he had expected. It was here he sought to find information on his quarry.

He started to hum under his breath the traditional death march which helped him focus more. A canine bearing grin slit his pale face as he sped through the shadows and pelting rain towards it. Casting himself amid the backdrop of the building and scaling the walls like how he used to when he still did pranks he made it to a slightly glowing window. "Huh…they are smarter than we gave them credit for," he muttered before savagely ripping his flesh open and splashing the window with it. The glass spider webbed cracks before disintegrating gently into the wind.

Pity any sorry soul who comes into contact with his cursed blood. Then like a wraith he slithered into the rooms, keeping partially covered by the shadows. It seemed he had entered an office that looked rarely used. For a moment he wondered why there hadn't been any alarms triggered yet then shrugged it off. He had confidence that he would get away.

Feet swift and sure, he left that room after deeming it useless to his search. Ninja stood some points but they seemed fairly…occupied. Curiously, he looked at what seemed to be captivating them then snorted softly. The sight of the lurid orange book brought a strange sense of nostalgia and pain before leaving just as quickly as it came. Continuing on his quest he darted through a room after looking around carefully for any resistance. When he encountered none he set to looking through the documents in various drawers.

He had to dismantle some wards that which proved to be no difficulty for his blood took care of them. After rifling through them all, he was starting to get frustrated. None of the rooms so far had led to any information.

When he reached the very top of the tower the door was being guarded with Jounin who upon sensing him threw shuriken which he deflected easily with his elongated claws. Narrowing his eyes, he darted in zig zag lines with Hakkyou Fuuten, which he channeled with destructive flames of purple that caused the Jounin that had been seared with it to burn to ashes. He could see that the Jounin would hesitant to use any damaging jutsus around the door so using that to his advantage he cried out "Nekura Shuriken!" and several hidden shuriken flew from between his fingers that had been hidden in his long sleeved cloak.

The blackened with malice pieces of metal ripped through with frightening accuracy into their bodies. Black veins spidered across their skin before imploding from the negative energy infused within the projectiles. Naruto stepped daintily through the entrails and copiously splattered blood to the gore streaked door they had once been guarding. "Fun…that was fun," he giggled to himself before pushing open the door.

"Hello….Naruto," a startlingly familiar voice intoned when he stepped into the oval room. Naruto froze, his grip on his katana wavering. A large stone desk which from what Naruto's keen eye sight could see held all the documents he had been seeking all that time. The person behind it was not what he was expecting at all.

"Sasuke," Naruto growled.

O.o So this sorta wrote itself? What do you think? Should I continue? Reviews would be highly appreciated so I could debate on whether I should continue or not. Thanks for reading thus far. ^-^

Translation: Hakkyou Fuuten=Insanity(Fitting eh?)

Kami sama=God

Nekura Shuriken=Dark natured darts

This causes the evil aura Naruto imbued from his own damaged psyche and the fox's chakra to cling to the shuriken which causes its victims to be poisoned in a sense with the over influx of negative energy that causes them to explode. This is Naruto's favorite jutsu.

The purple flames were just a mixture of the fox and Naruto's chakra that can engulf the katana with flames similar to Amateratsu only slightly more lethal.

Enjoy the cliffie~ :D
