Death Upon Gods, Hades

chapter 1. standing alone in the darkness, founding the light

It's been 5 years now since that fateful night where he had met his zanpaktou and had killed 75 villagers and 35 ninja. He doesn't remember killing them in the first place only that mysterious, dark light and thats about it.

Now over the past five years, Naruto changed drastically from the small bundle of sunshine wore his emotions on his sleeve. Naruto had become distant from everyone and didn't even brother attempting to make any friends anymore due to the incident A year after the unleashing his zanpaktou, he was admitted the Academy by the 3rd Hokage in order to become a ninja of the village and in the hopes that Naruto would make friends of his own age. However this venture seemed to fail due to Naruto's cold personality.

An unexpected result of Naruto's change was his increased popularity with the Academy's fangirl population. The current split was 55% to 45% in his favor between him and the lone survivor of the Uchiha Massacre, a boy named Sasuke.

Let us now join Naruto who going through another day at the ninja Academy, sitting down looking at the window in boredom and trying to ignore the fangirls who are trying to impress him. The most popular way was by having him tried their cooking, but the first time a girl did that to Naruto, he gave in and tried the food she made. Within seconds of his taking a bite, he gave it back to her and told her that her cooking was terrible and he'd never eat her cooking again. Needless to say, the girl ran home in tears.

That was last year and ever since all the girls that like him tried to get him to eat their cooking but he always says no. Today Naruto is wearing his usual attire, a black shirt, Anbu pants with black bandages covering his eyes and his hands up to wrists. His new black hair is slightly longer then when he was little as it barely reached his shoulders and he's the tallest kid in class at 5 foot to the bandages, no one in his class has ever seen his eyes but the imagination of fangirls is something of legend. Thanks to local gossip, many citizens in Konoha think Naruto has have scars over his eyes from a fight against a bear or a wolf, though some of the older civilians think a villager finally got to a little revenge against the demon Back to the Academy, we see Iruka, the chunin sensei of Naruto's generation beginning roll call.

"Ino Yamanaka?" said Iruka as he calls as he looks up at the class "Here" yells Ino, a blonde hair girl with long pony tail that reached half way to down her back, as has she raises her hand up and waves it franticly.

Iruka smile at the blonde girl "Okay Ino, calm down. Now, Shikamaru Nara?" said Iruka as he looks around only to see said boy sleeping at the moment. Annoyed Iruka throws one of his history books at the sleeping, pineapple-haired student."Shikamaru, wake up now!" yelled Iruka as the book hits the sleeping Nara on the head right in the face.

"Huh?" was all Shikamaru said as he rubbed his forehead. "Oh yeah, here," he mumbled before going back to sleep as though nothing happened. "Why can't this kid stay awake, he training to be a ninja for Kami's sake," thought Iruka with a sweat drop as he continued with the roll call. "Sakura Haruno? " said Iruka as he noticed the pink hair girl having another fight with Ino over which one would win Sasuke's heart. Deciding to nip the fight at the bud, Iruka used his famous big head jutsu "CUT IT OUT THE BOTH OF YOU" yelled Iruka as he tries to get the class quiet, scaring the hell out of everyone except Naruto.

"Sorry Iruka sensei" said the two girls as they bow their heads in shame and fear "Good. Now where was I. Oh yes, Shino Aburame?" said Iruka as he see a nods from the boy dark hair, a tan trench coat, sunglasses.

"Kiba Inuzuka?" said Iruka as he heard a bark from a puppy who resting on a boy's head who has red fang like markings on his cheeks "You forgot Akamaru, sensei" said Kiba slightly upset at the small oversight "Oh right sorry Akamaru," said Iruka as he heard Akamaru bark enthusiastically "Akamaru says it's okay Iruka sense," Kib translated for his companion.

Nodding , Iruka moves on, "Choji Akimichi?". All Iruka hears is munching. "Choji how many times have I told you? No eating in class!" yells Iruka as he looks at the large boy sitting next to Shikamaru, his best friend "Sorry, sensei. I missed breakfast," said Choji as he eats more of the chips that he brought with him"Fine Choji, just this once okay?" relents Iruka as Choji eats happy.

"Let's see now. Hinata and Hanabi Hyuuga," says Iruka as the two sit below of Naruto "H-here," said Hinata, a shy girl with short, blue hair,"Me too" said Hanabi, Hinata's younger, more confident sister "Sasuke Uchiha?" said Iruka while covering his ear when a few of Sasuke's fangirls scream out his name "Hump," was last Uchiha short response.

Iruka sighed. "And finally Naruto Uaumaki," says Iruka as he cover his ears again as harder screaming caused by Naruto's larger, more rabid group of fangirls. To this day, Sasuke is thankful to Kami for that. Naruto didn't show any sign that he cared, choosing instead to just look at his sensei who said his name"Yeah, I'm here" Naruto finally said before going back to looking at the window.

Iruka doesn't really blame him for being so cold; after all, what happened 5 years ago wasn't something you can shake off and continue smiling as though nothing happened. With that thought in mind Iruka finishes the roll call and begins the day's lesson, a review of the history of the Hokages "How nice, more pointless history," thought all of the students except the time the lunch rolled around everyone rushed outside. Sasuke disappeared from his seat; within seconds Sasuke's fangirls were after him. Though Naruto's fangirls looked for him, he was nowhere to be found. They didn't even brother checking a tree where Naruto is sitting and eating.

"I'll never understand why they try to impress me with their looks and cooking, which they are bad at anyway. *sigh* I'm glad that Hinata and Hanabi aren't my fangirls since they worked more on their skills then they looks" thought of Naruto while Hades started talking to him "Naruto, why don't you send these 'fangirls' of yours to the deepest parts of the underworld? The more you send them there the better you can focus on your training," said the former ruler of hell as he gives ideas to Naruto to get rip out the souls of his fangirls."You don't know how much I want to do that, but I still need more training in controlling shikai before that's even possible, Hades" thought Naruto. He didn't hear anything response. "Hades? Hmm, must be working on something." Hades was always looking for way to improve him, so he lets it go and continues eating.

/Deeper part of Naruto's mind/

Hades can be seen walking down a hallway with water on the floor and pipes lining the wall glowing three distinct colors, blue, red, and black. Reaching the end of sewer, he walks towards a huge gate with a paper seal in the middle of it. As he looked in the darkness behind the cage, two pairs of giant red eyes stared back. These eyes belong to none other than one and only nine tailed fox, the bijuu Kyuubi "So you have come again Hades. Are you going to finally release me so that I can be free to destroy this cursed village" says the hopeful demon fox as he becomes restless at the thought of his release.

"No, you sad, little fox. I will not release for you will to be forgotten soon enough." "Why? What are you talking about?" "Why, you ask? Well, my dear fox, when Naruto fully masters our power that is so great that earth will tremble and the sky torn asunder. He be strong enough to make gods, mortals, and demons alike bow before his might. At that stage he could make your destructive rampage in this word look like the pathetic tantrum of a spoiled child. All you can do is watch as all that death, blood, and fear as caused without your help. You will be forgotten," said Hades. He spoke the truth for the fox was so deep in Naruto's mind he could even communicate with Naruto if he tried. He was condemned to only see what Naruto sees and nothing more, a spectator for eternity. That didn't sit well in Kyuubi's mind

"You bastard when I get free from this hell hole, I'm coming after you and brat. I'll make you wish you had never existed!" yelled the fox, eyes promising nothing but pain and death to both of Naruto and Hades when he breaks free.

Hades just smiles at the Kyuubi's idle threat, knowing full well that the fox knew he couldn't get out. Hades turns and walks away from the fox leaving a few parting words. "Go ahead and try but your power will never reach Naruto's no matter how hard you tried. You. Will. Be. Forgotten." With those last words, Hades disappears into the dark, leaving behind an enraged and terrified fox demon who could do nothing except roar meaningless curses at the empty hallway.

/Out side of Naruto's Mindscape/

Naruto had finished his lunch and waiting for the bell to ring, so he could return to class. While he was waiting, he decides to take a small nap in the tree and dreams of a world where he is floating in darkness. Oddly in this world, he could see that it wasn't just an empty void, but rather a flow of shapeless mass that danced to the rhythm of his mind. This flow shifts under his feet, caresses his skin, and ruffles his hair. He felt at peace here as he let the darkness envelop him and was content to just stand in one spot not wanting to move or do anything that might disturb this sense of tranquility.

Unknown to the sleeping Naruto, a certain two Hyuuga twins sat under him eating they launch while they talk about the object of their shared interest "I wonder where Naruto is. No one has seen him since he up and disappeared when lunch began" said Hinata to her twin sister, though one would merely think of them as normal due to the fact that they don't look that much alike "Like I care about him, he's cold, distant from everyone, but kind to animals and- " "And we like him," completed Hinata as she and Hanabi were blushing at the truth They both really like Naruto but they keep the crush a secret to everyone but themselves.

They quickly suppress their blushes "Everyone is going to find that we like him aren't they, Hinata?" sighs Hanabi "I don't know Hanabi. Maybe not, if we're careful, but I don't know" says Hinata as she plays with her fingers.

While Hanabi and Hinata are talking the object of their conversation wakes up and looks down at them and ponders on what they are talking about, before deciding to give in his curiosity and eavesdrops on them.

"Hinata, do you think that Naruto would like our cooking? I mean mother did teach us how," says Hanabi as she tries to not talk about too much of their mother who passed away a few years ago.
"I hope so Hanabi if he doesn't like our cooking then we tried our best" said Hinata as she smiles knowing that if Naruto didn't like they cooking then he's not worth their time. It would be hard at first, but they'd move on. What they didn't know that Naruto is listening to everything the two were saying.

"Well, that's different. Normally I don't hear girls that give me their cooking say they were taught by their mothers or even their fathers at the very least," thought Naruto with his face turning slightly green," I don't understand how they think is it's ok for their supposed food to still be moving after they're done cooking it. Hmmm Hanabi and Hinata seem sad when Hanabi mentioned their mother. Did something happen?"

"Lady Hinata and Lady Hanabi, still haven't gotten over aunt's death. It has been 6 years," said the male Hyuga who was walking towards the twins with a girl who tied her hair in buns on each side of her head "Come on, Neji, go easy on them. I feel sorry for them" said the girl with the buns as she looking at the Hyuuga boy.

"Quiet, Tenten. Let the main branch brats speak for themselves if they have something to say about their pathetic mother," retorted Neji Naruto had heard enough and started to feel bad for the twins, so he decides to make his presence known. He jumps out of the tree and land in front of the Hyuuga sisters, surprising the two "N-Naruto," Hinata stutters while Hanabi starts wonder was he listening on them while they were talking.

Naruto looks at them and lifts his right hand. "May I please try some of your cooking Hinata, Hanabi" said Naruto out loud so everyone could hear him "Did Naruto just ask the Hyuuga girls to try their cooking?" said one of the stunned students while Naruto's fangirls flew into a blind rage at them "I bet it will taste so bad that Naruto will hate them after eating it" yelled a spiteful fangirl while the rest of the fangirls nodded in agreement, hoping the twins don't win Naruto's heart and win the war.

Both Hinata and Hanabi gladly gave a piece of their lunch since he asked so nicely. "H-here" stutteres Hinata gives Naruto a little bit of her sushi while Hanabi give him a beef egg roll that she made herself.

Naruto takes a bite of the two dishes while everyone stares at him in anticipation. After shallow the food, Naruto froze, making Hinata to and Hanabi think that he didn't like they cooking, but before they walk away in shame, Naruto spoke up "It's good. It's really good."says Naruto with a smile as he walks away.

"You two are really great cooks Hinata, Hanabi" The bell rings, but no one moves due to the shock that Naruto, Naruto the cold hearted, liked the twin's cooking. They get knocked out of their stupor when they hear yelling It wasn't just any yelling, no it was the screeching of dozens of Naruto fangirls. The sound from the screaming traveled through the village like a unstoppable tidal wave, shattering every glass object it met along the way.

"No no no no NO!, it can't be true Naruto-sama, our dark haired prince, likes their cooking, their… their garbage They've stolen his heart," said one of the fangirls (A/N Really just how deadly are fangirls anyway?) The fangirls continued their ranting; meanwhile everyone else ignored them and started walking back to class.

"Listen here you…" started the fangirl, ready to attack the focus of their ire, but the words died in their throat as both Hinata and Hanabi had gone to class as well. With no one there to listen to their **, the fangirls raced back to class to avoid be scolded by Iruka.

/That Evening/

All the students can be seen leaving the Academy and walking to their homes where their loving families. Naruto, on the other hand, walks toward the forest oblivious to the fact that he had two new shadows, Hinata and Hanabi are following *coughcoughstalkingcoughcough* him to the same place that he's going.

As Naruto enters the forest, he immediate starts training. Choosing to focus on ninjutsu that day, he flies through handsigns before screaming out the name of his attack "Fire Style: Fireball No Jutsu!" yelled Naruto. While the Hyuuga's twins were familiar with the attack as it was commonly used in Konoha, they were still shocked at the appearance of the fireball. They know that normal the fire ball is supposed to be a reddish orange, instead before them was a far more dangerous black fireball.

"No way, No one has ever fired a black fireball before" whispers Hanabi, while Hinata is speechless awe of what Naruto could do "Hanabi, he's amazing," says Hinata while blushing up a storm.

"Yeah he is, but don't faint on me sister. I doubt I'd be able to carry you home," says Hanabi as the two shared the same thought about how they could be strong like Naruto. Though they have the same goal, they want to be strong for different reasons. Hinata wants to be strong so her father won't call her weak anymore while Hanabi wants to be strong to protect her sister and friends from anyone unwise enough to attempt to harm them. Snapping out of their daydream, the two realize just how late it is and prepare to run home.

"Come on, Hinata, let's go. It's late and father will probably be mad at us for being out so late" say Hanabi, clenching her teeth when saying the word" father". Hinata understands Hanabi's anger towards their father as she felt the same way sometimes. After they mother died, their father became the cold Hyuuga clan head, Hiashi Hyuuga, to them and they miss the way he was before, a caring and loving father.

Both Hinata and Hanabi start for home but to their surprise, they are surrounded by enemy ninjas from the Village Hidden in the Clouds. Their goal was simple: obtain the Hyuga's bloodline. To that end they monitored Hinata and Hanabi for the perfect chance to catch them since the two, being clan heirs, didn't have the cursed marks on them.

"Looks like we hit the jackpot, boys! Here are two defenseless little Hyuugas ripe for the picking, and the clan heirs no less. No curse mark bullsh*t this time, kiddies. Our Raikage has been dying to get his hands on your bloodline. With both of you being female, he might just pay double for this mission," says one of 5 cloud jounin. While thinking about the money they'd get, they charged at Hinata and Hanab, completely unaware of a certain black haired hero not so far away.

Naruto come to a halt mid handsign as he hears a scream. He was put on edge by how familiar the voices sounded. Focusing on area where he heard the notices the charka of 5 jounin level signatures and significantly weaker ones that were fading quickly.

"Someone must be in trouble. Well, I can't just leave them there." says the black hair boy as he fades from existence in a burst of speed, When Naruto reached his destination, he looked around at the torn up area. His eyes wondered over the broken branches and burnt grass until they zeroed on a satchel laying by a tree with contents spilled out. Naurto's eyes narrowed as he picked up a familiar bento box, the smell of lavender and sushi being the confirmation.

"Hinata… the other signature must have been Hinabi. I should've got here sooner. By the looks of this place, I was only a few minutes off. I can still save them," says Naruto before disappearing again following the five chakra signatures, making a quick stop at his house to get his zanpaktou, Hades. Naruto may be a bit cold hearted, but he still cares about his allies for the time being that is.

/15 Minutes Later…/

The 5 cloud jounin are racing towards the border of the fire county while carrying the Hyuuga twins and basking in their easiest job to date. "We're almost home free boys" says the leader of the group while the rest laugh at their victory. Before they can think about what they'll do once back in their own land, a bolt of black lighting flashes in front of them, stopping them in their tracks. They quickly get into a pentagon formation and eye the surrounding forest for any possible ambush angle.

"That's far enough, Cloud scum" says a voice, causing the jounin to focus on the location of the voice only to see a 10 year old kid with black hair, carrying a sword. (a/n i not going to do the details yet since i still haven't decide yet) All 5 jounin immediately burst out laughing, thinking that it's a joke or something.

"Oh man, you must be kidding. You are just a brat. I bet you would wet yourself at sight of blood," says one of them while holding his side, making the others laugh even harder, Naruto's eyebrow twitch was the only outward sign of increasing rage. He points his left index and middle finger at the jounin who made the joke and whispered," Hado #4: Pale Lightening." Black lighting larger then before shoots out of his fingers and hits the cloud ninja right in the face, burning a hole right through.

"1 down, 4 to go" says Naruto as he gets into a basic kenjutsu stance, choosing not use his incompleted fighting style in case one jounin gets away and tells their Kage, "You think you're big, *ss wipe just because you get a lucky shot. Think again, brat" says the biggest guy while the two who were carrying the still unconscious twins put them down by a nearby tree so they could fight, too.

As the battle went on Naruto proved that rank was meaningless. He had taken a few hits but the four Jounin were looking much worse with the big guy losing an arm due to not getting out of the way fast enough and the others had some pretty bad cuts and burns. They were confused as to how this academy student was keeping pace with four Jounin. Was he one of those damn prodigies that Konoha always bragged about?

"Damn brat, who does he think he is?" said jounin leader who was only sporting a few deep cuts along his arms, While the 4 cloud jounin prepared to attack Naruto again, he thought about his predicament. He was running low on chakra really fast since he had been enhancing his speed with chakra the entire fight, not to mention the fact that he had been in the middle of training before this whole fiasco started.

'Damn it. At this rate I will have no choice but to use shikai,' thinks Naruto knowing full well that using his shikai would be disastrous since he couldn't control its power yet, but he was running out of options "Naruto, I know that you can't control the Shikai yet but you have to if you want to save those girls. You know that," said Hades as though he is uncertain what the outcome would be if Naruto unleash shikai now.

As Naruto trying to figure out others ways to defeating the cloud nin, one of them launches a jutsu at him, catching off guard. Barely dodging, Naruto is sent flying toward a tree. The success of the attack spurs the jounin to charge Naruto, leaving Hinata and Hanabi alone.

"Not so tough now are you little **. What? Are you tired all of a sudden?" says the huge guy using his only arm to hold up Naruto by the hair. "Anyway last words before I take my time killing you?" said the jounin as the other three bring out they kunai and prepare to stab Naruto.

While the jounin talk to Naruto, both Hinata and Hanabi wake up and see Naruto about to get killed. "Naruto!" scream the twins causing Naruto to look at them. Looking into their eyes, he sees that they actually care. Neither of them wants him to be killed because of them.

Even as the cloud jounin begin slashing him, Naruto is only focused on one thing. 'They… care. They really care about me unlike those fangirls. They just want me as a damn trophy. That settles it. I will save you, Hinata, Hanabi,' thought Naruto as he grabs his Zanpaktou.

"Bring Death to All, Both Man and God, Hades!" yells Naruto as his body explodes wit power. The same bright dark light from 5 years ago erupts from his body blinding the twins. As their vision returns, they bore witness to death given form. The being that stood before them sent a shiver down their spines, and they weren't the only ones. The four jounin backed away from Naruto as they feel an overwhelming pressure bear down on their very soul. Hinata and Hanabi fainted from the pressure so they didn't bear witness to the being before them. Naruto Uzumaki was not the same person.

Naruto's eyes had inverted. The sclera had become black, and the pupil and iris had become solid white. A faint, black flame rested upon his head in the shape of a crown. The same black flames cover his hands and feet. Fangs jutted out over his bottom lip. A black cape rested on his shoulders under it, a black vest and blood red undershirt. The greatest change had been his sword. Before it had been a simple black katana with a stark white edge, an ouroborus cross guard, and a pommel wrapped in black cloth. Now, that blade as was gone, in its place was a weapon that exuded a feeling of death and despair. The new blade appeared to have only one edge, but the blade had hook-like grooves along the edge in intricate designs made to tear flesh as well as cut. There was no cross guard, and the sword had kept its basic colors from before the transformation. (A.N. see for view of the shikai sword.)

Naruto basked in this new found power. "Amazing, simply amazing! I feel invincible, but I can't lose focus though. I don't know how long I can hold this form." Thought Naruto while glaring at the sweating jounin. Suddenly Naruto disappear, and appear in front of the jounin with one arm.

Grabbing the man's face with a flaming hand, Naruto spoke in a mocking tone." I thought you were going to kill me. Any last words. No? Well then. give me your soul!, Endo e no Pasu!(Path to the End)" Other cloud jounin could only stare as their friend's body shrivel up and turned to ash before their very eyes, leaving behind only his soul which was still in Naruto's hands.

"Perish!"yelled Naruto as his hand lit the soul on fire, filling the forest with the screams of agony from the damned soul Naruto turned to the three remaining jounin and pointed his sword at them."You're next, Kage no Sōgi (Shadow Funeral)." With that, the blade of his sword disintegrated into dark matter and rushed towards them. More screams of pain filled the night as a dark light pierced the sky almost like it was meant to show the world that a new great power was here to change everything.

/The Next Day/

Thanks to the lightshow from the previous night, some of the Konoha ANBU were sent to investigate and found the twins and Naruto sleeping in the demolished clearing. They quickly take them back to the village and to the hospital to check for any injuries. The twin were fine with only a few minor bruises, but Naruto had been inflicted with a number of wounds on his arm that would leave some scars even with his increased healing factor. Thanks to that and mild charka exhaustion, Naruto would have to stay in the hospital for a couple days. At least that's what Hinata and Hanabi thought.

At the Academy both Hinata and Hanabi walk into the class before it starts. To their surprise, they see Naruto in the room with bandages warp around his arms while his fangirls are bothering him with questions about his injuries. Some included what had he fought or did he get hurt while training and so on. Naruto never answers any of them, but when he sees Hinata and Hanabi, he gets up and walks over to them.

"Are you two okay? Did there cloud ninjas did anything to you two?" he asks as he look at the twins "No we fine but you should be in the hospital you are really hurt and-"

"Don't worry. I'm okay look see?" said Naruto cutting off Hinata as he moves his arms like nothing happened "B-But you were being stabbed to death just to save us" said Hanabi as she feels bad for what Naruto had to go through just to rescue them.

"Like I said don't worry Hinata-chan, Hanabi-chan. I will always come to your rescue," he says as he takes his new seat in between the two sisters and continues talking to them. As Naruto talks to the Hyuuga sister, his fangirls seething in rage while the sister were on cloud nine.

"He said chan," they thought in unison with blushes on their faces.

/That Night at Naruto's Apartment /

As Naruto goes to sleep he has that dream again of him standing alone in the dark void. This time, however, two bright lights appear behind Naruto. He turns to see both Hinata and Hanabi smiling at him which makes him smile a true smile for the first time in 5 years.

From that point the rest of the days at the Academy were fun for Naruto. After all, he found two new friends that he would always protect no matter what.
