I do not own Naruto or any of the characters within.
Prologue The orphanage
Small child, only 4 years old, stood by a tree in the corner of the orphanage watching other children playing in the sandbox while the orphanage workers kept an eye on them. Why was the small kid sitting by the tree rather than with the other orphans? Because he was the village pariah, unloved and unwanted.
"Why won't they let me play with the rest of them, I don't like being all alone."
Naruto proceeded standing by the tree and watching others play. Feeling hungry despite having just eaten. "I wish the old man visited me again. He is always nice and talks to me"
Most of the orphanage workers ignore that Naruto is there whenever possible, not allowing him to play with other children. They made sure he got exactly the same portion that the other children his age ate. But for some reason he was still always left hungry feeling as if he barley ate anything, despite getting as much food as the others.
One of the biggest bully's in the orphanage, a violent 8 year old kid, approached Naruto "Hey you shorty I want to sit here so move it!" Naruto refused to move stating "It's a tree, there are more all around here, you don't have to sit here I was here first."
The bully named Takumi proceeded to push Naruto who was half his size. After falling down, Naruto proceeded to get back up to try and fight the bully despite being smaller. Yet, before he could he noticed the orphanage matron watching the situation closely while standing only a small distance away. Naruto carried on to just stomp off feeling annoyed and angry knowing that if he tried to fight back the orphanage matron would interfere leaving him yet again without dinner for supposedly "attacking without any provocation and generally being a dangerous menace."
Few months later.
Orphanage matron watched as Naruto ate his dinner thinking "Why does the Hokage want this thing kept alive, eventually he will get his power back from within that seal, who knows what he will do then, it's irresponsible and idiotic to keep that next to children. I really need to find a way to get it at least outside the orphanage without getting into any trouble."
Few days later when Naruto came back from his daily wandering (Orphanage matron told him to just stay outside the orphanage except during mealtimes and night. Threatening him if he was in the yard surrounding the orphanage during the day, he would be punished)
"I don't like having to wander around, at least the adults in the orphanage don't try to kick or hit me" were Naruto`s thought on returning to the orphanage for the night.
Next morning when Naruto woke up he found the orphanage matron walking into his room "Grab your things I've had enough of you being a menace in my orphanage". Sleepy and confused Naruto grabbed his blanket as that was the only thing he owned besides the clothes he had on. "Am I being moved to a different room or what did I do this time?" Following the matron to the orphanage gates Naruto kept wondering what was going on. When they reached the gate the matron turned to him "Do you know what day it is today?" Naruto realized that it was October 10th the day of the kyuubi festival and also his birthday, the day where everyone was lot harsher than normal. Last year he made the mistake of wandering outside the orphanage and ended being beaten up by a few drunks.
"Good, you realized. This is also the day when you stop living at the orphanage. It got decided that you should not be around children so get out of there! If I see you here again I will not be so lenient to allow you to survive!"
Naruto being scared and now 5 year old kid that he was just ran away thinking of the hiding places he had been using to hide in when he had to be outside the orphanage.
That night Naruto got beat up when few drunks stumbled into the ally he was hiding in. The bruises and the broken arm healed by the time he woke up next day. Like this he started his time living completely by himself in the alleys of Konohagakure.
