Chapter 1:

Encounter with the Purple Dragon

The years had went by, Naruto had grown up in body and mind too, well he was still loud and obnoxious but different now. He was no longer naive like before. Malefor had taught him that, don't trust someone you don't really know even if they seem kind, that applied especially to Naruto's other , a silver haired man that Malefor did not trust one bit since he had this fake smile all the time, and he could also tell he lied through his teeth every time he said something nice to Naruto. The blond also became more attentive in class and pulled pranks only outside of it, he managed to retain his attention in class only because Malefor and him had an internal conversation about the lectures. It was the only way the purple dragon had found to help the boy learn anything that was not hand on learning.

Naruto also had went through an harsh training but made a lot of progress through it, so far the blond had learned mainly how to harness electricity and wind elements. The ease with which he used those elements, and without hand sign managed to pull out jutsus that usually required them, surprised him a lot at first. But the voice in his head which he had learned to trust insisted that it was normal and that he was different from the others. Yet the voice told him to keep his ability to himself and not show them to anyone. Naruto felt that it was frustrating to not be able to show off his abilities but the good thing is he improved in everything he needed for the academy, he was not the head of the class but he was not the dead last anymore which was quiet good already.

But there's still something he can't get right no matter how hard he tried. The clone jutsu, that jutsu always overloaded when the blond tried to pull it off, from what he was told by the voice it was because he had too much chakra and that jutsu was designed to be used with a small amount of it, an amount so ridiculously small that even with all the good will in the world Naruto would never be able to pull it from his enormous chakra pool.

And today was the day of the final exam to become a genin, Naruto had went through the written portion with great difficulties and scored a near perfect on the kunai and shuriken part and did good on the taijutsu part. Malefor had face-pawed at the questions of the written part, if it had been questions to evaluate one's tactical knowledge or evaluate one's ability to assess a situation, he would not have minded. But the thing was that the questions were that of history test that a ninja had no use of! They were going to do assassination, information gathering, escorting, not writing someone's biography. It baffled the dark master how stupid those humans could be.

The worst part was when Naruto failed the exams because he could not pull of the clone jutsu, a useless jutsu that produced an illusion of oneself something that would most likely never fool the most experimented ninjas. And what was worse, it was that because of this useless trick that they saw fit to fail Naruto, and not the pink haired banshee he was pretty sure would be useless to whatever team she would be part of.

The kid was now in a park sitting on a swing and lamenting over his failure, Malefor was being as comforting as he could. The dragon actually did not really care about the blond felt, what he cared about was that he had another chance to get the boy to trust him even more, convincing Naruto that he was the only one to be always there and always care. This would make him the perfect puppet that would be unable to act against him, unlike a certain black dragoness.

Meanwhile Mizuki walked in the park and approached Naruto "Hello there, Naruto. I know how you feel, Iruka was a bit harsh but he meant well you know" he told the blond with this same fake smile that always used around the blond.

But Naruto did not even seemed to notice he was getting lied to as he tried to find any sort of comfort he could after what he felt was a betrayal from Iruka, getting failed for just one jutsu was absolutely ridiculous, and he was nearly sure that Iruka never really liked him if he did not try to help him on this one.

Mizuki refrained from smirking seeing the state the boy was in and said "Well, you know there's a way you can pass and become a genin..." Naruto's eyes widened now full with hope 'Hook,line,and sinker...' Mizuki thought "All you would have to do is retrieve a scroll from the Hokage's office. If you manage to do it without getting caught you will be considered to have the level of skill to be a genin"

Malefor growled in Naruto's head, this was the most obvious trap he had ever seen, and the kid was falling for it jeopardizing his well calculated schemes. Oh, the silver haired man would pay for this, he would pay far more than he could possibly think.

Malefor had to watch, powerless as Naruto stole the forbidden scroll. He had to give the boy that, he definitely made huge progress when it come stealth, a shame he used it to endanger his life. he sneaked in the Hokage's office and took the scroll. But the aged leader of the vllage saw the blond.

"N-Naruto?! Wh-What are you-" Hiruzen began before being victim of the blond's infamous sexy jutsu, the hokage fainted from a sudden nosebleed caused by the sight of the gorgeous naked woman that Naruto transformed into.

Naruto giggled "Sorry gramps but I can't let you ruin the test" he said as he went back to normal and ran with the scroll.

"Idiot! for the hundredth time it is not a test! You are getting tricked!" Malefor told him, but the blond just wanted to believe Mizuki so badly that for once he ignored Malefor.

The dragon sighed heavily as the blond ran to the clearing where he was told to wait. He opened the scroll and scanned it for a jutsu that he could do. Malefor's eyes twitched as he saw through Naruto's. He analyzed carefully each jutsu, all where most likely forbidden and for good reasons. They were either immoral, which did not bother the purple dragon, or ridiculously dangerous for their users. Malerfor advice the blond to try the shadow clone jutsu.

"The clone?! But I can't pull it off?!" the blond replied.

"You can't do the basic clone because it ask for a way too small of amount of chakra, this jutsu has the reverse problem for the other ninjas it is to taxing for them, but should be fine for you" the dragon explained.

Naruto nodded, he worked on the jutsu for a few minutes before he finally managed to get it right. As he stood up and looked around he saw Iruka arriving and he smiled "Hey there Iruka-sensei, you finally found me!" he said with a big goofy smile

Iruka had been worried and Naruto's smile fell as he noticed the look on his teacher's face "Naruto you idiot! What have you done?! Can you tell me why you stole the Forbbiden Scroll?!" he shouted at the blond who was now horrified.

"Th-The F-Forbidden Scroll? But Mizuki-sensei...he said...The make up exam, was a lie..." He said realizing what he dd.

"I told you so...this was the most grotesque trap and you fell for it" Malefor told him being very irritated

"I'm sorry I should have listened to you, you always were right each time...should have known better" Naruto replied through their mind link.

Iruka's eyes widened not understanding why Mizuki would do such a thing, why frame Naruto like that, he was about to say something when he heard the sound of someone landing on a branch. He grabbed Naruto and jumped out of the way of several shuriken.

Iruka turned around and Mizuki was there with two huge shuriken strapped to his back "Well well the cat is out of the bag it seem, well I'll have to kill you both I guess..."

Naruto could not believe how naive he had been, he watched powerless as he saw Iruka and Mizuki fight, all of this was his fault.

Mizuki threw one of his huge shurkien at Naruto knowing that Iruka would shield him with his body since he would never be able to take the blond out of the way.

And as he planned the teacher protected his student receiving a big shuriken in the back. Iruka, growled as he took the shuriken out of his back and threw it back at Mizuki who dodged it and then lunged at him. They now fought in close quarter exchanging kunai hit.

Naruto was now beyond angry, not only had Mizuki taken him for a fool but he was hurting his sensei, he got up with a kunai ready to attack Mizuki who had pinned Iruka against a tree with his kunai nearing the throat of Naruto's sensei.

Mizuki noticed the blond and smirk "Are you sure you want to do that Naruto, after all, you will never get what you want in this village...and Iruka hates you though he hides it...have you ever wondered why everyone hates you in this village?"

Iruka's eyes widened as he guessed what Mizuki was about to do "Mizuki stop it's forbbiden!"

Naruto froze at that, why was it forbbiden why peoples kept hating him, what is it they don't want him to know "You see...the Kyuubi is a biju a beast made of chakra, you can't kill chakra...so the yondaime sealed the Kyuubi in you! You are the beast that ravaged our village years ago!"

Naruto was confused, he let his kunai fall to the ground and his head hung low, he was the demon? He was a...a monster, all these graves he had seen once, they were his doing. Suddenly he felt a warm feeling spread through his entire body, his body felt heavy, and then the world went dark.

Mizuki laughed as he watched the boy despairing with delight. "Don't worry once I am done with your sensei you'll have all the time to despair in hell demon"Then he lost his triumphant smirk as a massive killer intent flooded the clearing. A feeling of dread filled him. The hairs of the blond became longer and straight, their color went from blond to dark purple with blood red tips. The pressure became terrible for Mizuki as he saw the golden slitted eyes of the former blond "St-STAY AWAY DEMON!" he shouted as he threw the kunai aiming for the head.

the kid only tilted his head to the right not even phased as the kunai missed him by a milimeter. "A demon...is that so? keep flattering me you'll have me embarrassed mongrel" he asked in a voice that sounded amused and yet held a threatening edge, the voice was that of Malefor.

Mizuki was furious, how this kid dare to mock him and act so high "Shut it fox!" he roared trying to punch Malefor who side stepped and gave him a sharp kick to the abdomen, it was amplified with with the power of the wind element sending the silver haired chunin flying. Mizuki collided with a nearby tree. Before the chunin could get his breath back Malefor had his throat in a vice grip.

The dark master was glaring at the traitor "A fox? you dare to call me that, me who is one of the most noble creatures to have graced that ball of mud you call a world" if there was one thing that Malefor held dear, it was his pride. He would accept no insult especially from a low life traitor "And believe me, soon you will wish that I was the fox" he added darkly with a terrifying twisted smile.

Mizuki was scared beyond belief as he struggled in Malefor's grip "Please, let me live" he said.

Malefor looked at his...well technically Naruto's hand as sparks of purple unstable energy gathered in it "Well you see...You could have ruined my carefully planned schemes, and nothing frustrate me more than this...so I need to vent this frustration if you don't mind" he said laughing as the Dark Aether filled palm struck Mizuki's abdomen making him scream in pain as the energy coursed through his body and ravaged it.

The howls of agony scared Iruka who had never seen such a thing before having never approached the torture and interrogation section of the village. The brown haired chunnin held his ear nearly begging for this to stop. Who was that, it could not be Naruto nor the Kyuubi. This being was terrifying. The sadistic glee in his eyes as he tortured Mizuki was something that not even Anko had.

And when it finally stopped Mizuki was dead and Malefor threw his lifeless body as if it was some sort of common trash "Done, I feel better...though there's still one more thing left for me to do..." he said as he looked at Iruka who did not had the time to do anything before getting knocked out by a small electricity infused hit to his neck. Malefor then brought his glowing hand to Iruka's forehead starting to modify his memory. He would think he had been knocked out by Mizuki while fighting him with Naruto, he would remember the blond using the shadow clone jutsu too. Everything was done so he would think that Naruto was the one who managed to vanquish the traitor and use a jutsu that would most likely help the boy to become a ninja. The boy needed to get stronger if he was to survive in this world and since most of the Training could not be done by Malefor he had to use the tools within his reach.

Now that he was done with Iruka, the dark master still had one thing left to deal with, the boy. He sat down against a nearby tree and went back into Naruto's mind while pulling the blond along with him, it was time for him to meet his little "protege".

When Naruto woke up he was in front of a gigantic cage in what appeared to be a sort of sewer. The doors of the cage where kept shut by a small tag with the kanji for seal on it. Naruto approached the cage as a voice spoke to him, it was different from the one he knew but it still intrigued him "Yes...yes child, come closer..." Naruto gulped as he came near enough to see a big glowing red slitted eyes. Then a huge set of claws tried to tear the boy apart, "tried" being the key word as a torrent of purple flames stopped them in their course.

"What do you think you are doing stupid beast?!" Malefor roared as he jumped out of the shadows and stood between Naruto and the fox.

Naruto was very confused and scared when he looked at the two beasts, he did not took long to identify the fox in the cage. A mountain sized fox with nine tails, the Kyuubi no Kitsune without a doubt. And the other creature looked like a huge winged lizard with curved horns, most of his body was though the horns and the scales of his feet were of a blood red color. And the creature was big, bigger and taller than a horse.

"Trying to find my way out of this prison! you foolish dragon!" The Kyuubi barked back before being silenced by a murderous glare from Malefor accompanied by a terrible wave of killer intent. How such tiny creature could have such a terrifying and dreadful aura was beyond Kurama's understanding.

"Now you WILL stay silent and try to make me forget about your existence" Malefor said with a threatening tone that made Naruto shiver as he cowered away from the dragon even if the threat was not directed at him.

Malefor took a deepbreath and tried to calm down and control his voice to not scare the boy even "Child calm down, no one here will hurt you." he said as he turned around to face the blond ninja.

Naruto nodded slowly and then recognized the voice "YOU! You are this voice I started to hear years ago!" he said at first gaping like a fish when Malefor nodded. Then it was Malefor's turn to be surprised when the kid threw himself at him and hugged him. Malefor did not knew how to react felt embarrassed by the display of affection from his little "protege". "We finally meet at last! Thank you, you have done so much for me" the blond said with his bright goofy smile. the awkwardness of the moment seemed to go away as Malefor smiled back "Well, I just did what I had to Naruto..." the purple dragon replied, while it was true the dark master had helped Naruto on many occasions he only did so to gain his trust and make him a puppet in his grand scheme, it made all of this feel very awkward again.

Naruto giggled and then tilted his head as he remembered one thing that made him confused "You...never told me your name" he said scratching the back of his neck.

"Malefor" the purple dragon replied, he had no need to lie since no one knew him on this world.

Naruto smiled again "Thank you again for every-" he was cut in his sentence by Malefor who coughed a bit "You don't need to thank me little one, I did nothing special" Malefor told the kid as he somehow felt and oddly pleasant and warm feeling swell in his chest, he could not quiet identify the feeling but it made him feel very uncomfortable after he noticed it. It felt like a mix of pride,happiness, and yet another thing he could not quiet identify, it was a sort of fondness but somehow it felt like it was more than that.

"I mean it, you must be the only one to truly like me, even though I am-" Naruto was cut again by Malefor "Kid, that moronic ape don't know a thing about you. the Kyuubi is there, and you are here, two separate entities. You are Naruto and the Kyuubi is the Kyuubi, a prison and its prisoner" the dragon explained. Naruto looked at the big dragon with admiration which made Malefor even more uncomfortable, he was gaining the trust of the kid but something else seemed to make the process more awkward to him than it should be.

The fox noticed the way the two spoke to each other and decided to voice his opinion "Oh isn't that cute! Looks like you found yourself a whelp to raise as your own, maybe he'll grow wings and will breath fire and also call you daddy!" the Kyuubi said in a snarky tone as he laughed out loud at the embarrassed Dark Master who growled threateningly before lashing his tail at the water sending a very focused electrical discharge that zapped the giant fox "Ouch that hurt you sadistic bastard!"

Naruto laughed at the Kyuubi "You deserved that one!" he said with a smirk.

The fox growled threateningly at Naruto but several fire balls from Malefor went for him, which he dodged "Hah! missed me!"

Malefor smirked "are you sure?" he asked sounding really cocky and proud with himself.

the Kyuubi smelled the air and noticed heat coming from his behind and then he noticed it "MY ASS! MY ASS IS ON FIRE!" he shouted before sitting up plunge his scorched rear in the water and sighed, but he hid his hindquarter with his tail because the fur had been burned off so it was as embarrassing to the fox as being caught naked for a human.

Malefor laughed loudly with his dark and distorted voice "Now remember forever this humiliation fox!"

Naruto hesitated before saying "Heh...Malefor-otou-san...you...you are quiet scary..." the blond said making the purple dragon cough as he controlled himself and made his voice sound normal again, he had to or the kid would be far too afraid of him. But one thing made the purple dragon tilt his head 'otou-san? what's that word? I know san is what they call an honorific...but...otou...' the dragon was confused about the meaning of the kids words.

Malefor sighed and then looked at Naruto once more "Anyway, I made sure everything would be fine for you, so I think it is time you awoke. because we are currently in the representation of the seal inside of your mind...so, goodbye kid, see you next time" he said before poking Naruto's forehead with a small pulse of mana that made him awoke.

When Naruto awoke he was on Iruka's back and was getting carried back to the village "You regained consciousness, don't you Naruto?" Iruka asked having heard the small groans coming from the boy. He stopped and let the boy stand up on his own.

"Yeah thank you sensei, what happened?" he asked.

Iruka thought the blond was a bit shaken "Well you took out Mizuki, thanks to you the forbidden scroll is safe." he said with a smile.

Naruto thought about it for a second, and remembered what Malefor told him and did not second guess what his sensei said "And I also have something for you,close your eyes" Iruka told the blond who did as he was told "Open them now, since you have mastered the shadow clone jutsu you are now a ninja of Konoha" he said with a smile.

Naruto reached for his forehead and found the cool metal of his forehead protector, his finger traced the symbol of Konoha on the plate as if to prove himself it was true and not some cruel joke. He hugged Iruka who chuckled as he patted his student's back.

"thank you otou-san"Naruto thought while smiling happily

Meanwhile in the seal

Naruto's thoughts had reached Malefor who once again was confused "You really are clueless, aren't you?" the Kyuubi said with a chuckle "Otou-san is the honorific with which the humans address their sires"

The strange warm feeling in Malefor's chest was back "The kid think I am his father!" he thought , then he took a deep breath and crushed the strange feeling that build up in his chest "He is but a piece on the board of my scheme, an expendable tool, nothing else!" the dark master thought disgusted with himself, how could he even think of showing this kind of weakness and enjoy it. Yes he had cared for the kid, but only because he was useful to him, he would not allow himself to jeopardize his own schemes.

Kurama merely tried to hide in the shadows of his cage, the dragon would most likely want to vent his frustration. And alas for him he was the only one that the dark master could use to do so. The fox screamed in pain being struck by several electrical discharges.

"Please someone call the Animal abuse prevention agency!" the fox cried out.
