A/N: Your reviews and feedback truly warmed my heart, anyways here is my first chapter of Renewal Of Existence. Kurama Ryu in this story is taking the place of Kurama Yakumo, from a filler arc in the Naruto anime, for the purpose of this fiction he will be 1 year older than the "rookie 9" Naruto's graduation class.
Three goddamn months have passed since I've been reincarnated, THREE goddamn months in this God forsaken place. Living life, from a baby's point of view is quite annoying, I guess I now know why the human brain forgets our misadventures of life as a baby.
Over the couple months I kept feeling an annoying itch throughout my body, yet I could not seem to stop the itch no matter whatever I did. As a result I cried, and I cried a lot, I'm surprised how my "new" parents aren't sick of me yet. Speaking of which, I finally discovered what that, irritable itch really was, chakra, turns out I'm not just reborn in the world that I've always known, no I'm born in the world of Naruto. The very same world where Ninjas hop around throwing fireballs, and other techniques of mass destruction. My immediate reaction was to go into much more shock than what a baby's brain could handle, and so the natural response for a baby happened when overloaded, I cried.
That however was not the only thing that I had found out in this new world, as if it wasn't enough that the world itself had to dump me into a place full of ninjas who well, KILL. I'm also granted a weak body constitution, and yet still the world had not stopped messing around with me no, I'm also the heir of the goddamn Kumara clan, meaning I've taken the place of the original heir, one Yakumo Kurama.
If all of this has happened it's also very likely in the next coming years I'm going to end up murdering my parents in a fire, know why? It's because of the kekkei genkai of the kurama clan, which ends up putting a demon kind of thing inside your head, that's COMPLETELY insane, yup you heard me insane.
On the upside though, my parents seem nice enough, I mean, they feed me, love me and care for me. Yesss sir, Murakumo Kurama and Uroko Kurama, are nice fellows indeed, oh and there's that uncle that drops by from time to time. I think his names something along the lines of Unkai Kurama. Not that I could say any of this out loud yet anyways.
However, as an fan of Naruto in my past life I knew the gist what was coming, and to be frank it scared me, but not as much as it should have. Suppose it comes from having these genetics from a "Ninja" clan, and so sitting around for three months, not being able to prepare for what's to come because I was a baby, was truly an annoying prospect.
As the Kurama clan was claimed to be genjutsu specialists, I thought that we must have good chakra control to manage such feats, and so I started to play around with what I now recognized as chakra, not that I had anything better to do. As I had always been aware of the "New" energy inside myself, I was able to find it, and draw it out faster than even I had expected.
Unlike the speed I was able to draw out my chakra at, my chakra size was a whole different story, it sucked and it sucked badly. My physical side of my chakra as you can guess for a baby that just hit three months was pretty much nonexistence, my spiritual half however was the dominant half of my chakra right now by far. Guess you can attribute that to living 16 years in another life. Even so it was not enough for me to draw out my chakra for long, I passed out.
Time skip (9 Months)
I can walk finally walk, yet my physical illness hampers that, I should be able to walk much better then I'm able. But alas I've at least achieved the status of walking, yes bask in my glory muahahaha. Ah right this body of mine has also progressed, it can now also handle my random bouts of insanity, minor insanity mind you, nothing worth taking me to a doctor over.
Speaking of my developing body, I could manage to say small words such as Kaa-san and Tou-san. I think I scared the living hell out of my parents when I managed to say both one after the other. They did what any caring parent would have done, picking me up, while cooing nonsense.
The experimentation with my chakra over the time period of 9 months had shown its benefits. I could feel my chakra capacity grown immensely from what it was before, the more you stretch a muscle the more it can be stretched the next time. I honestly couldn't wait until I could start learning the illusion arts.
Just then and there my father came into the room, he walked in and picked me up from my crib, he rubbed his finger against my cheek affectionately.
I stared at him while babbling "Tou-san, Tou-san" over and over, as well as other incoherent sounds, while reaching out at him with my chubby fingers. This seemed to brighten up the expression on his face.
He carried me down the stairs of our two story house, I could hear noises from downstairs, as well as, guests? Oh right, it is my birthday the celebration of my entry into this world, well huh I guess I'm one year old now aren't I. Anyways my father took me down the stairs then put me on the floor, I struggled to stand straight, but in the end I managed it. I walked holding my father's hand to the main area of our home, where fellow clansmen as well as friends of my parents were there. They all greeted me, some pinched my cheek exclaiming how cute I was, not that I could do much to stop them anyways, so I let it happen.
Looking around I spotted it, my cake, it was chocolate brown, with a single candle on it, and it was covered in frosting. I maintained my composure, well...I tried at least, but even with my 16 year old mind seeing something sweet, after so long, I really couldn't resist, I ran towards the cake. However somehow Kaa-san seemed to know what I was going to do before I even did it, and so I was stopped, I didn't get the cake….yet that is.
Kaa-san placed me down next to the other children at the party, there were three of em. Bob, Billy and Joe, well that's what I dubbed them at least, never got to know their names. They were younger or older by a month or two not much of a difference, yet they were immensely boring, they just, drooled, or teethed on things… Sigh.
Majority of the party went along the same lines, but finally it seemed I could finally have my cake, as my mother called me over to the table "Ryu-chan, it's time to cut that cake of yours." She truly is a sweet woman...and I'm not just saying that because she let me have my cake, finally, no not at all.
And so, I walk over, I take a deep breath and blow out the candle, as the candle got blown out the light turns off. Then I feel it, the overwhelming presence it's crashing down upon me, I could hear a roar in the distance.
I start to feel fear, no scratch that I'm terrified as the revelation of what this is dawns on me, the kyuubi, it was actually the damn kyuubi attack. My memory must be slipping if I forgot about such an event. I was hoisted up into my father's arms as he carried me out the front door. I could hear screams, and shouts all around as the sounds of misery fill the sky. Fire, illuminating the sky, then I saw it, the kyuubi, the enormous beast flinging ninja around with his tails and causing massive chaos and destruction. I don't think I would forget that scene in my life ever, those hauntingly red silted eyes and the streets full of bodies, would continue to scar me for time to come.
From that point onwards I was numb, I couldn't feel much of anything anymore, I could only remember my parents taking me to the shelter, before running off again, I waited and waited as that scene replayed in my head.
Finally it was over, the roars ceased to exist, yet the sounds of pain and misery did not. They lingered, I could still hear it distinctly so. The door opened I looked for my parents, I found them soon after, I was one of the lucky ones I numbly thought, my parents were still alive. I fell asleep in my father's arms, into a sleep that was deeply deserved.
A/N: How was it? Good? Bad? Let me know in the reviews so I may improve on it.

And so, I walk over, I take a deep breath and blow out the candle, as the candle is blown out the light turns off. Then I feel it, the overwhelming presence it's crashing down upon me, I could hear a roar in the distance.
I start to feel fear, no scratch that I'm terrified as the revelation of what this is dawns on me, but I had to check to be sure, I get on all fours and crawl towards the door, I open it, I look up, I see it, it's the GIANT CAKE! I couldn't let anyone else get their hands on it...it was MINE. I made my way to the cake as fast as a baby with a physical illness could anyways. But to no avail, as when I had made it there it was already consumed by the majority of the population.
"Noooooooo" I cried towards the heavens.
