The Wolf Container

Naruto lay in bed out of breath. He had run from his apartment, to the park, then the hospital, then back to his apartment, as fast as his 7 year old legs could go. His normally messy blonde hair was even more unruly with spots of blood. His clothes were ripped to shreds, covered with the same person's blood as the blood on his hair. His. Altogether he looked horrible. The inquisitive sapphire eyes brimmed with tears while he remembered how he had ended up like this.

-Flashback-

It all started when Naruto decided to walk to the park. He was just near the gates when he saw a group of drunks came round the corner. Naruto knew what was going to happen. It was like this all the time. They would give him a punch, he'd pretend to be unconscious, and then they'd give him a few kicks then leave with joyful faces. But today was even worse. They had weapons. They beat him up until he couldn't move. When they finally decided to leave the seemingly dead boy 1 hour later, Naruto got up and dragged himself to the hospital, even when he knew it was useless. And he was right; they took one glance at him then through him out. He gradually made his way to his apartment, carefully avoiding all the bars, and fell on his bed.

-End of Flashback-

"Why?" the little boy said to no one. He fell asleep dreading what the Hokage would want with him tomorrow.

When Naruto entered the Hokage's office the once endless murmur fell silent. All stared at the boy. Naruto sighed. He was used to this. But he could understand. Sort of. All last night he was figuring out his life. And at 3am it suddenly hit him. It all made sense. The stares, the name-calling, the attacks, all of it! He was called demon, asked why he had survived and been sneered at him all the time! It wasn't just coincidence that his birthday was the same day as the Kyuubi attack. He had snuck into the library, to the restricted area, and searched Yondaime and Kyuubi. He found the true story. And he wasn't happy.

"Naruto," the Hokage sighed, "I know what happened and I..."

"Old man," Naruto interrupted, "I know about my past."

The old man Hokage sighed again, "I'm sorry Naruto, and I had hoped that you wouldn't have found out so soon, but I can't change that. Here."

The Hokage opened a drawer and gave it to Naruto.

"Don't open that until you get home. If any of these attacks happen again come straight to me and tell me."

Naruto smiled and nodded then went home, leaving the 3rd Hokage to the rage of the council members.

Naruto opened the scroll to find a letter.

Naruto,

I assume you found out who you are, that's why you can read this. I'm sorry Naruto, for leaving you alone in the world and possibly violent villagers. But I had to save Kohana from that fox. I can't really teach you anything for you to defend yourself but these should help you until you can find her

Below was a list of really cool jutsus. Naruto's face brightened up, he was always a sucker for jutsus ever since he had started at the academy 2 months ago when Iruka-sensei showed them one. But one thing puzzled him...Who was her?

I hope you can learn these well, and I'd better tell you who her is, shouldn't I? She is someone who I happen to know is in the same boat as you. She is the same. She has the 5 tailed wolf demon inside her. You'll know who she is when you meet her. She is 3 months older than you and knows what to do. I hope you will too. Have a great life, my son, and make your old man proud. Train well!

Your loving Father,

Arashi Uzumaki.

Well I hope you enjoyed this. It's my 1st story in...Well...anything really:-) Hope u like! R&R!
