Zilleraxe: Who wants to do the Disclaimer?

Orochimaru: I'd be willing to.

Zilleraxe: Happy that you would do that, and I'm sure that many people would respect that, but…

Kabuto: I could do it instead.

Zilleraxe: No, you I hate "author style: Erasure jutsu"

Kiba: Zilleraxe doesn't own anything, if he did, the story wouldn't have so many tragic deaths.

Zilleraxe: Thank you Kiba.

My cell was tiny, the walls were made of stone and dripped with slime from the damp air. The man with the yellow eyes hasn't been in to experiment with me for a few days. The boy with the silver hair hasn't been around either. Hunger gnaws at my stomach and I try to push it away by focusing my chakra. An explosion rocks the room, snapping me from my focus. Another one sounds a moment later. I try to stand but the manacles on my arms and legs prevent me from doing so. The door to my cell slams open and a person with an animal mask stands in the doorway, their hands glowing with chakra. Fear pushes me against the wall again, as it has for the past few years. The figure flares their chakra. Seconds later, another person with a mask stands beside the first. "Did you find anyone?" asks the first. The second shakes their head. "This seems to be the only person." They gesture at me. They nod and walk toward me. They draw kunai knives as they move. I close my eyes and wait for the pain of death to come, but I only hear sounds of metal on metal and slowly open one eye. The manacles are gone and the figures are shaking their heads at me in pity. They try to help me up but I fall over again, having not eaten in nearly a week. One of them picks me up and packs me over their shoulder. They walk out of the cell quickly and smoothly, only making the gentlest of swaying. The swaying plus my exhaustion put me to sleep quickly.

I wake up to the smell of cooking meat. My eyes snap open and I sit up. Four people in animal masks are sitting around a fire, one is tending a pot that produces the heavenly smell. I move in a trance toward the smell and stop before entering the ring of people. They notice me and turn to greet me with waves. The one tending the pot passes a bowl in my direction. I take it without question and tip it, letting the thick stew pour down into my empty stomach. I get a few more servings and eat them in a similar fashion. I sit back with my hands on the ground behind me. The figures pack up camp quickly and one puts their hand on my shoulder. I look over at them before I see the wind swirl around us. Suddenly we are in front of massive gates. Through the gates I can see a village of rounded top buildings and a mountain with faces carved in to it. The guards at the gate look at me with strange eyes before nodding us in. The animal mask beside me walks slowly with my arm around their waist. I try to keep up with the others but whenever I try to move too fast the world tips around me. I look up apologetically at the animal mask helping me but they raise a hand. "It's not your fault that you are in this state. Its orochimaru's." They say in a masculine voice. "Now come on, the hokage wants to meet you." I nod and try to move a little faster. I saw a girl about my age wearing orange running as fast as she could. I looked quizzically at her until I saw a group of adults chasing her. I didn't like the look in their eyes. It was the look the yellow eyed man got when he was about to hurt me. I saw the glint of steel and knew it to be kunai. 'they intend to kill that little girl.' I thought to myself. The animal mask helping me looked in her direction and by the set of his shoulders I could tell he wanted to go help. I heard a scream that I assumed to be the girl.

My vision turned red and energy flooded my body. Shaking off the animal mask's arm I sprinted after the mob. I saw them with the girl pressed against a wall, they kicked her, punched he and slashed her with their knives. Every time an attack connected I remembered when the yellow eyed man or silver haired boy would do this to me. I released a growl like a beast along with a blast of killing intent equal to that of the yellow eyed man. The mob flinched and some of them ran away screaming, some of them passed out from the force of my Ki. The few who seemed to be the least effected looked back at me with shock that a boy so young could have such Ki. "He must be a demon too, kill them both!" screamed one man. They threw some shuriken at me. The weapons stuck to my flesh but I couldn't feel anything. Kunai joined their shuriken friends in my skin but I didn't budge. I grabbed two of the kunai and advance on the remainder of the mob. Another blast of Ki sends a few more people scurrying. One of the people left tries to attack me but I lash out with the left kunai and give him multiple cuts that make him drop to the ground. The next was more intelligent and threw more weapons at me, aiming for my head. The shurikens stabbed into my head and one of the kunai hit me in the eye. When I still didn't fall he ran off screaming about demons, the rest right behind him. I knelt before the girl and picked her up. She looked at me with a mixture of fear and gratitude in her eyes. "I won't let them hurt you anymore." I promised. "My name is Kei Kamiken." I told her. "Naruko Uzumaki." She replied. I walked in the direction I had left the animal mask and found him standing there with a rigid body. He continued in the direction he had been leading me and I followed. On the way I heard whispers about a demon an saw stares aimed at me and the girl carried bridal style in my arms.

We arrived at what I assume to be the Hokage's office and when I walked into the room I saw the other animal masks look in my direction before flinching. They stepped aside and an old man in a white and red robe with a matching hat sat at a desk with mountains of paperwork beside him. He seemed to be in a good mood right now, sitting there with his eyes closed in an eye smile. Then he opened his eyes and nearly jumped out of his skin. (AN I think that anyone would jump at the sight of a nine year old with that many blades sticking out of him carrying a bruised and bloodied Naruko.) "What happened?" He demanded. I flinched but noticed his eyes were directed at the animal mask behind me. "Lord Hokage, I was leading the boy to you when Naruko ran passed us. A second later a mob ran by and the boy's eyes began to glow. He ran after the mob. I felt a wave of Ki that I now believe to have been him and then he returned soon after in the state you now see." The animal mask said quickly. My knees buckled and I fought to fall carefully to now hurt Naruko. The Hokage made a motion and one of the animal masks in the room took Naruko to a couch like seat off to the side of the room. My energy drained out of me and I collapsed, throwing myself backward to avoid falling on the kunai in my eye. I heard more words but couldn't make them out as I fell into a black void.

Ha not bad for my first fanfic, huh. Not even that much of a cliffie, just enough that you'll want to keep reading. I will post a knew chapter soon if I havn't already by the time I get signed up and figure out how to post. Now like most authors on this sight. PLEASE R&R, it gives us feed back and might change the story to something you'll like better, also it just might give us ideas to continue period.
