Disclaimer: Naruto belongs to Masashi Kishimoto and Yin&Yang is a story idea belonging to creepingshadow. I merely adopted the story.

Author's Notes: Well, anyway I've adopted creepingshadow's story since recent events prevent him from continuing it. Long story short: he has terminal cancer. So in his debt, I am hereby taking over this story for him. I would like to take this moment to say this story was entirely his idea, and I am in no way entitled to claim any royalties. As of now, this story is a collaboration between me and CreepingShadow. So, without further ado, please enjoy an edited version of the first chapter:

Now on to the story:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"What do want Koroken-sama?" asked a 17 year old boy. His yellow eyes glistened terribly in the dark. He wore a sword on his back that seemed to radiate evil chakra. He wore a bulkier version of the armor most ANBU wore, with the exception of the mask. He had a black bandana covering his mouth and his head band was pulled over his head like a bandana.

A voice emitted from the sword, a corrupted and evil voice.

In the dark void of the boy's mind, a massive cave appeared. The boy wandered the usual route through the cave and came across a massive scorpion with eight poisonous tails coming out of its rear. The most distinguishing feature, however, were its eight yellow eyes that seemed devoid of any light. Staring into them was like staring into the abyss.

"I HAVE CALLED YOU TO YOUR MIND SCAPE BECAUSE WE WILL BE ARRIVING IN KONOHA SOON." The scorpion declared with a commanding tone.

"What so special about Konoha, Koroken-sama?" the boy felt inclined to ask. The scorpion had trained the boy in the arts of genjutsu, taijutsu and ninjutsu for 10 years all for the sake of one purpose. Today, that purpose was to be explained.

"KONOHA IS THE VILLAGE WHOSE LEADER SEALED THE KYUBI NO KITSUNE. KYUBI IS THE ONE WHO IMPRISONED ME WITHIN YOUR MIND! I DEMAND RETRIBUTION! YOU WILL FIND HIS VESSEL, AND YOU WILL KILL HIM!"

"Hai!" replied the teen.

"NOW GO! AND DON'T DISSAPOINT ME KOETSU KAGUYA!!!" The scorpion warned.

The lone ninja traveled to The Village Hidden in the Leaves unaware of the red eyes following him.

Author's Note: I decided to make very little alterations to the first chapter since it should remain faithful to what creepingshadow wrote. Anyway, drop a comment down in the reviews section.
