I recommend listening to A7X's (Avenged Sevenfold) most recent CD: nightmare on shuffle while reading this story some of the songs go really well its what I was listening to whe I wrote it hahaha.
SOUND NINJA NARUTO
CHAPTER 2: SECRETS, LIES, FORGOTTON
Naruto couldn't believe what he was seeing as memories and thoughts were ripped from their seals. Images of Pain, suffering, deception, and malice, he saw as far back as he could remember fire dancing before his eyes as villagers: civilian & ninja alike stalk him down and attempt to kill him.
He saw the ramen shop keeper instead of his usually cheery voice and pleasant demeanor scowl like so many others at Naruto whenever he entered his shop. He saw Iruka sensei with understanding in his eyes 'at least that didn't change' Naruto thought. He saw his life with team seven was still the same; even his grandfather figure the 3rd Hokage was still treating him like a valued person. As images danced across his memories, he could see when he was younger, trapped in an alleyway about to meet his maker at the hands of a group of twenty rioters, which included ninja of Chunin and Jonin level, an ANBU Kakashi came down from his perch killing several ninja and injuring most of the civilians as ducked kicked slashed his way through the crowd to make it to the one many wanted to kill.
He saw through drugged and blurry eyes an old man peering through a telescope when the third Hokage approached him whispered something in the old man's ear and the old 'stargazer' walked over to Naruto. Naruto remembered flinching as the bruises and gashed were still fresh on his body from yet another riot to kill the boy. Jiraiya looked pained to see the dead eyes of his student's only living relative and the flinch as he approached. "Rest easy" the old man said in a husky voice that indicated his age and bad habit for smoking. "Your pain will go away I promise" he said with what looked as a genuine smile. And with many more images and scenarios stretching far back in the young ninja's life Narutos eyes rolled back in his head and the young genin lost consciousness.
Oorochimaru having broken the seals in the young boys mind spoke into his subconious. Sakura snapping out of her shock knew she had to do something quick in order to save Naruto from Oorochimaru's clutches she quickly reach into her pouch and pulled a group of ten kunai with paper and flash bombs on them. She threw them as fast and as good aim as she possibly could know it could do little. "Only when you're ready boy now to send you a little nudge in the right direction"
The paper and flash bombs exploded and Oorochimaru seeing the seed planted successfully took Narutos heaven scroll and burned it before departing in the smoke. Sakura jumped to catch Naruto from falling and set him on the ground underneath a tree. "SASUKE! NARUTOS IN TROUBLE! HES BARELY BREATHING! WHERE ARE YOU?!" Sakura knew she had to act fast so she jumped into the trees to retrieve Sasuke's unconscious form.
After finally getting Sasuke to where Naruto was she dragged them both under the roots of a mammoth tree. She began routine first aid making sure Sasuke's neck as unbroken she placed a medicine ball and a food pill into Sasuke's mouth to aid in the recovery. After she had done that she turned to Naruto who was now not breathing at all. Panicking she quickly opened his signature orange and blue jacket (how anyone could wear long sleeves in this weather as beyond her) and took off his chainmail shirt listening to his heart for signs of life. Hearing his heart that was already dangerously slow come to a complete stop she quickly pumped his chest and tried CPR blowing air into his lungs to get him breathing. Frantic now her teammate was dying she pumped harder and faster trying CPR once again. Getting no response after an agonizing hour of trying to revive her team mate, she collapsed in exhaustion tears welling up in her eyes as her friend now laid motionless dead before her eyes. Going into her pouch she pulled out a blanket that was going to be used for sleeping over the five day exam, she covering her friend's body making sure to cover his head as a sign of respect to the newly departed knucklehead. She knew other teams would still target her team even though they no longer had a scroll and one of their teammates was now dead. She quickly decided to mourn Naruto later when they were out of the exam field. She popped a food pill and an energy pill in her mouth before getting to work on traps to keep opponents away & genjutsu traps Kurenai taught her to trap any opponent that got too close.
Unaware that a man wrapped from head to toe in bandages was watching them from close by.
The next morning
Sakura sat dosing when Sasuke started to stir.
Feeling the presence of the kunoichi and a distinct smell of ramen in the air Sasuke didn't bother to open his eyes when he said in a weak voice "hey there is it morning already?"
Sakura woke with a start… did Sasuke say something or was that just in her dream. She dreamed that Sasuke and Naruto were fighting in an arena with thousands in attendance. Both were using jutsu and acrobatic skill she had never seen before. Having been beaten in the second round she had made Chunin with her display of skill and prowess. The match ended in a tie as Naruto slammed a spinning ball of light into Sasuke's hand that was wrapped in electricity causing an explosion that rocked the arena both of her teammates woke up after the match was called when Sasuke said something strange about the morning.
"Sakura? What time is it?" Sakura looked at Sasuke as he tried to rise, muscles locked up tight from the previous day's activities. Sakura looked over next to her and saw Naruto unmoved from where she had put him. Sakura slumped at her inability to try to explain what had happened since Sasuke was knocked out. "Sasuke" Sakura started slowly tears in her voice. "Naruto is…" but she couldn't continue knowing she would betray one of the core tenants of her duty.
The sadness in her voice made Sasuke's eyes pop wide open. He sat up quickly ignoring the pain shooting through his body. "Naruto is what?" Sasuke said concern for his best friend. He looked over to see Narutos unmoving body covered by a blanket. Shock and fear overcoming him as it dawned on him that once again he was unable to protect someone precious to him. "no" Sasuke whispered "No it… can't be. Naruto?" his shock and Sakuras tears stopped as they heard a distinct snap revealing three sound genin standing in the clearing.
The first one was standing around 5'0" tall with a crouch completely covered in bandages aside from his left eye he also wore a grey coat with the sleeve on his right hand almost touching the ground. The second was around 4'8" a young girl with long hair tied at the end stood in grey camo pants a yellow flak vest and a black tank top stood next to him. The third member stood at 5'2" with spiky brown hair, same camo pants as the girl and their mummy, a yellow short sleeve shirt left open with a black t-shirt underneath. Each member of the team had a black headband with a metal plate on it with a deformed music note on it. Identifying them from the Sound village.
Sasuke and Sakura jumped and readied their kunai in case of an attack.
"I know your hiding in there… come on out we want to fight with the one called Naruto." Said the one in the mummy costume in his deep dry voice filled with about as much malice as a gennin could muster.
Sasuke and Sakura looked at each other 'this was new' they both thought. 'Usually Sasuke is the one people want to fight. Why Naruto?'
As they both stepped out of the genjutsu barrier both put on looks of determination. "Narutos dead." Sakura muttered. "He died last night we don't even have a scroll anymore. So please leave"
The sound team looked incredulous not buying the story. If Oorochimaru-sama wanted them to fight him so bad why would he die so easily? "As if we believe that line of bull-shit. Wake Naruto up and bring him out here now or well just go in and kill him now" the one with the spiky hair named Zaku exclaimed.
This was the last thing Sasuke wanted to hear the thought of them defiling Narutos dead body to make sure he was dead was unconscionable. "Fuck off" Sasuke growled "even if he was alive you think that I would stand by and let you hurt my comrade?!"
Sakura nodded her agreement and brought her hastily prepared poison blade in front of her. She had prepared it last night while looking for herbs to use as food. "Well if that's the case then get ready" Kin said waiting for her opponents to strike.
Kin stood by as Zaku raised his arms towards the group of ninja prepared to strike. Sakura threw her blade at Zaku only for it to bounce of an invisible wall of sound pressure. She looked in shock as the wall moved toward her at incredible speed. "SAKURA! LOOK OUT!" Sasuke unable to activate his sharingan because of his lack of chakra pushed Sakura out of the way of the blast at the last second only to be caught in it himself. Still reeling from the attack from yesterday Sasuke was cover in cuts and scrapes only for most scabs to reopen as the shockwave hit him. Sasuke barely managed to stand as the mummy Dosu moved in front of Sasuke slamming him in the gut with his right fist as he came down with a powerful strike onto his own right forearm where the strange metal tool was Sasuke saw during the first exam. Sasuke thought the punch wasn't that hard since him and Naruto trained together often and Naruto hit much harder.
Then it hit him all at once the vibrations through the device on Dosu's arm hit him like a boulder sending him crashing into a nearby tree falling unconscious.
"SASUKE" Sakura saw Dosu almost obliterate her teammate with a single punch. While quickly using substitutions and genjutsu she landed in front of Zaku and threw a barrage of kunai that impacted in his arms and legs. Despite the pain Zaku recovered and pointed both his hands at Sakura releasing his sonic wave.
Sakura taking the brunt of the attack was knocked to the ground in front of the tree Sasuke was laying against.
Suddenly everyone notice the weather in the forest became unnaturally warm as something was happening.
IN NARUTO'S MINDSCAPE
Naruto woke up in a dark hallway filled with knee deep water. He struggled to his feet and started to look around. His eyes had adjusted to the light in the area and he noticed a strange sound was coming from one of the rooms off of the hallway he was in. he started walking towards the well lit room entering the doorway he saw an enormous cage filling the room the noise became louder and more defined it sounded like growling… or snoring?
Walking up to the gate he was curious because he couldn't see inside.
"ZzZzZzZzZzZz"
Naruto deadpanned inside of the cage was a sleeping Kyuubi spirit.
"HEY WAKE UP"
"ZzZzZzZzZz*pop* huh?" the Kyuubi's eyes popped open and saw Naruto inches from his cage
"oh its only you boy what do you want"
Naruto felt an odd sensation as he looked into the Kyuubi's eyes… he couldn't put his finger on it but with his recent memories restored he sensed… what was it… familiarity?
"Hey Kyuubi… can I ask you a question?"
Kyuubi was amused none of his hosts had ever just started a conversation out of the blue like this without demanding he help them or give his chakra away. "What is it Boy?" he said 'boy' with as much distain as he could suspicious of Narutos true intentions.
"What happened to you to make you hate humans so much?" Naruto asked looking down near his feet with a depressed look on his face.
"Why would you care about why I do anything Boy?" Kyuubi asked filled with memories of his long life in this cruel world.
"Because.. I don't know when I saw your eyes just now they looked like the eyes the villagers give me and I've never done anything to them. AND STOP CALLING ME BOY MY NAME IS Naruto" being fed up with suspicions.
"Hehehe. I see boy then how about we make a small deal?" Kyuubi said with evil filing his eyes
"Tell me what it is first then I'll tell you whether or not ill accept" Naruto was aggravated now with an exaggerated pout on his face
"Very well boy, I'll call you what your father named you and you can call me what my father named me." Evil was now filling the air of the dank sewer.
Shock and curiosity came over Naruto "you… you have a father?" Naruto asked in surprise?
Kyuubi deadpanned "just.. How dumb are you? Everyone has a father! What do you think we just pop out of thin air or something?"
Naruto came to a realization in his heart. "ok Kyuubi what is your name?"
"My name is Kurama. Kitsune no Kurama."
"Ok Kurama." Naruto said with a smile "it's a deal"
Naruto became very serious all of a sudden. "Kurama… you never did answer me…. About why you hate humans so much"
"Hmph" Kurama taking the serious tone and acted bored with the story before suddenly having a matching expression with the young human.
"Where to begin… I guess you could say that it first started when the first great ninja war started and I was simply controlled by Senju to do his bidding. I was not having a conversation like I am having with you… I was summoned and used like some shuriken or katana only to go back inside when the battle was over no more no less."
Kurama now spoke with anger "then the was the battle for Hokage at the valley of the end a man by the name of Madra Uchiha summoned me and used his accursed eye to dominate my free will. I was then sealed inside of your ancestor Mito Uzumaki the first Hokages wife who locked me away further ruining my freedom. She told me that I was too powerful and for that reason alone I had to be locked away"
his evil smile returned but went away just as quickly "When she became too old to hold me I thought my freedom was close at hand but instead of freedom I was again sealed inside of Kushina Uzumaki your mother."
His look becoming now bitter with anger "she went a step further with her sealing Jutsu she nailed me to a orb of her making meant to suppress me further. The seal weakened on the day of your birth I finally had this one chance to be free only for a man to come and kidnap you forcing your father to rescue you instead of focusing on the seal. But then instead of breaking free I was ripped from your mother and before I had time to react I was placed under the power of that accursed sharingan again."
Kurama's anger now stung the air and Naruto was forced to flinch. "when your father broke the sharingan's control I was finally out of my cage and I had no leash. But you precious villagers kept attacking me trying to keep me in place before I could exact my revenge for my treatment. So I lashed out and started to destroy the village but right when I had an opening your father used his teleportation Jutsu to bring me to where you & Kushina were. That's when your father started the seal that latched onto me like a boil. I tried to break free but the Shinigami's grip was too strong. Seeing he was planning to seal me again I attacked him in order to save my freedom but that made the seal complete quicker and the next thing I know I'm IN A SEWER OF ALL PLACES. SO YES I HAVE CONSIDERABLE HATRED FOR YOUR KIND"
"wait you said my father was the fourth Hokage?" Naruto asked surprised he had never heard of his parents now he knew their names and they hadn't abandoned him
"Yes. Your father, Minato Namikaze was the one who sealed me in you."
"Thank you for telling me that Kurama" Naruto said with a smile. "You didn't want to be viewed as a demon or some tool devoid of emotion. I promise as soon as I know where to look how I'll find out how to change this sewer into something nicer for you how's that sound?"
"Heh you're a funny Kid Uzumaki Naruto you're full of surprises even the way your life has turned out" Kurama chuckled
Naruto scowled at the Bijuu now "Hey Kurama, you want to help me out? I want revenge on the man that caused both our suffering this masked man that controlled you and killed my parents. I also want to have enough power so none can hurt me like they did anymore"
"hehe wow kid asking me for help is a risky business… very well ill help you but first I'll give you some of my strength I sense some troubling things happening outside the ones who treated you kindly without the genjutsu"
Narutos eyes widened "Sasuke, Sakura I have to save them. Please Kurama lend me your power"
"Hmph. very well Kid I'll lend you my strength. Be forewarned I am a beast of pure malice if you use my power your feelings to protect will fade and will be replaced with just the urge to destroy your enemies… in the future I will train you to control my power and together well change the way the world sees us"
"ok Kurama I understand just give me enough for this next fight so I don't become completely overcome and attack my comrades" Naruto braced himself already feeling the effects from Kurama's power washing over him in the enclosed space.
Outside
The entire forest clearing was a mess. Kin was on the ground with blood dripping from her mouth Ino possessed her in order for the sound team to give up not knowing they don't play by leaf ninja's rules and would actually kill their comrades if given the chance. Chouji was lying by a tree in a daze after spinning with his attack for more than three minutes. Rock Lee was lying next to what looked like tree roots with blood dripping from his ears. Dosu and Zaku were standing in a defensive position in the clearing facing two recent arrivals Neji Huuga & Tenten. Sasuke had regained consciousness and was being treated by Sakura who was battered by Zaku during their fight. Sakura was covered in cuts and bruises blood dripping on her body from her head when Dosu spoke up "these leaf village brats keep crawling out of the woods like cockroaches"
With that Zaku aimed his hands toward the trees "yea you cockroaches want to come down here and play with us?" Dosu and Zaku started chuckling at their comment but quickly stopped when they felt a surge of chakra that felt like it had enough evil and malevolence to destroy them easily enough it would be like snapping a toothpick.
That's when they all heard it someone else was laughing it was a sinister dark little chuckle that turned into uncontrollable laughter. That's when Naruto stepped forward out of the genjutsu wreathed in a blood red aura he had a twisted smile on his face "Why so serious?" Naruto asked in a sickly sweet tone. "don't you think it's funny anymore to pick on my comrades?.. Well I guess I'll ask this once then Sakura Sasuke who hurt you? Was it the leaf or the sound?"
Sakura sat stunned as did everyone else except for team 10 who dove for cover in the bushes out of the clearing. Sakura suprised and relieved that her freind want dead was about to shout for joy but stopped when seeing his aura "N-Naruto? How did you?"
"Answer me who did this to you?"
"That would be me" an unflinching Zaku said with pride and raised his hands again in order to kill team 7 once and for all.
"[ZANKūKYOKUHA]" Zaku shouted as he sent a wall of sharp air toward the three targeted ninja.
"No Zaku don't!" Dosu was frantic his partner didn't sense the killing intent coming from the young blonde standing in front of him
Naruto gave a slight grin at the Gennin's stupidity. With little more effort than breathing Naruto flashstepped grabbing both his teammates & rock lee and setting them near where Neji and Tenten were standing within the blink of an eye. Zaku, proud of his accomplishment, smiled back at Dosu who looked on in horror as Naruto, smiling even more than before flashstepped once again grabbing both of Zakus wrists twisting violently. With an audible *SNAP… *SNAP Zaku began screaming in pain as both of his wrists were now broken. While still in shock Zakus arms were wrenched back behind him looking back Naruto was now smiling openly baring his elongated canine teeth and his other features taking a Kyuubi quality. Zaku started to plead with the monster that had hold of his arms. Naruto twisted yet again and Zaku was on the ground face first in pain with the jinchuriki still holding both wrists wide eyed now with a full smile across his face drinking in the fear the gennin was supplying.
Stomping on Zakus left shoulder blade Naruto started to pull with his left arm Zaku was now writhing helplessly in pain. The other Gennin were shocked in this sudden cruelty coming from their friend they knew about the abuse that he received from the villagers but he had always kept a happy (& hyper) demeanor.
With a loud *SNAP…. *POP Zakus left shoulder blade broke under the pressure and his arm became dislocated. Quickly tiring of the torture he was inflicting Naruto decided to end his fun moving his left foot beside Zakus body and placing his right foot along Zakus spine and wrenched Zakus right arm then punched him in the upper arm right below the elbow. Hearing a satisfying *CRACK *CRACK *SNAP he knew both of the Gennin's bones in his upper arms and his humorous bone were now broken he had hoped to have popped Zakus elbow out of joint with that last punch.
Zaku let out a scream that made Sakura have to hold back her vomit. Passing out from the pain Naruto finally let go of Zaku.
"Haha looks like you're the last fucker standing mummy man." Naruto said with a psychotic smile now dominating his features.
Sakura was now stricken "What did that man do to Naruto? You said that you were instructed to by him to attack Naruto!"
Scared out of his mind Dosu shakily stated "I have no idea what my lord was thinking he merely told us to seek Naruto out. P-Please take this scroll let us leave"
Naruto looked at his feet the shadow from his hair covering most of his face as if in deep contemplation. After a few moments Naruto looked up with his eyes closed mouth in a serious position. Then with a smile his eyes popped open to reveal two glowing orbs that shown a blood red color with his pupils narrowed with that he simply stated "no"
"NOOOO. Please stop. Don't give in!" Sakura screamed as she took Naruto and hugged him from behind trying to settle his murderous intent. Naruto glared at Sakura but did not move.
While Sakura had Naruto in a gentle grip Dosu carefully set his Earth scroll down and slowly walked to Kin who by now was rendered unconscious by Ino's technique after she left her body. Dosu picked her up and made his way to Zaku and picked him up too. Dosu looked at Naruto then to Sakura "you are indeed strong Naruto too strong for my team to take on right now…" after a moment of gathering his courage "when we meet again on the battle field it WILL be to the death but today is not that day." He then glanced at Sakura again and merely stated "thank you." Before the three vanished into smoke.
Sakura realizing she had been hugging Naruto for too long let go and stepped back with a slight blush on her cheeks.
After tending to everyone's wounds (& Sakura's hair) the three Leaf teams went their separate ways everyone except Naruto seeming to be glad the trauma was over.
Naruto had now acknowledged what had happened this 'Oorochimaru' had altered the seal somehow making it more difficult to fight so he had to rely on Kurama's chakra. With someone that skilled helping him by unlocking his true memories and effectively introducing him and Kurama he knew he had a shot at getting some specialized training of some sort. Naruto began contemplating on how to locate him once again. But that would have to wait on the chunin exams.
For once in his short life Naruto finally had direction he was no longer a helpless leaf blowing in the wind. He had a goal to become strong enough to have peoples fear & respect whether they wanted to give it or not.

ok so thats chapter 2 id like to get your opionions so far before i decied what to do next. im planning on writing on the prelims i dont know if ill focus a whole chapter on it since as im guessing you see this as close to cannon as possible only um switching naruto and sasukes roles and making sakura a bit more usefull but.. not by much hehe
also suggestions on narutos training during the month off im going to forego Jiraya for obvious reasons and sasuke is still training with kakashi.
so naruto is left with training with Oorchimarus Tokubetstu Jonin disguise, Kabuto Yakushi, Kurama or a combination of the previous three!
so im looking forward to your suggestions and overall comments and hope this has been entertaining for you ill wait about a full week to start working on chapter 3 so i can look over your suggestions.
as for relationships... im no good at that but if i had to say for sure i may introduce Fu as she is running from her villiage and stumbles into Orrochimarus hideout. or someone but at this point there will probably not be a pairing
