Disclaimer: -_-" no way I own this masterpiece except this plot.


Five years later

A blonde boy ran through the streets, which were decorated for a festive day, but he didn't seem like he was running because of something spectacular, instead, behind him a mob of angry villagers were chasing him and throwing rocks at the poor kid.

The boy dressed in a white shirt with a red spiral on the front, and short black pants has been trying to get away from the mob but they seem to get faster every minute that passes. But he pushed himself; he HAD to get away from them. He turned into an alley way and gasped in horror as he noticed the dead end, and mentally kicked himself for picking the wrong alley entrance. He turned around to see if he could make it to the other alley, where he had a secret route he would use every time they chased him, but the men caught up to him faster than last time.

"Please… I haven't done anything wrong!" he pulled his hands over his face in defense as he fell on his rear.

"Nothing?! You killed many people, you demon brat!" a man from the crowd screamed and stepped forward to beat the boy.

"AAAGHH!!!" he screamed at the top of his lungs as the man, and along with other men who followed suit to have part of the "fun", proceeded to beat him and stab him.

'Why me! What have I done to deserve this cruel beatings every day?!' he said to himself as he boarded unconsciousness.

An hour after the mob had gone, the boy woke up, every movement he made hurt. He limped in the shadows of the street and eventually came up to his rundown apartment.

He locked himself inside and sat on his bed, bringing his knees to his chest. "Why am I treated this way?" he talked to himself.

He glanced at his cuts and bruises and they were already half way healed. This didn't bother him as he always had this advanced healing, but didn't question such miracle. Suddenly, a loud knock came on his door and he began to retreat to the dark corners of his room and covered his face on his knees. He heard the door open and some footsteps stopped in front of him, he clenched his teeth and iron shut his eyes as he waited for the beating, but it never came. He raised his head and the person he saw made him smile widely.

"Jiji!" he screamed as he hugged the legs of the man.

"Haha, oh, Naruto-kun," he chuckled and lowered himself to Naruto's eye level.

"I'm glad you came here, I was… scared," he lowered his gaze.

The Sandaime Hokage frowned at the mention of that, he knew that this poor boy was being beat up by older men, villagers and shinobi alike did this to him frequently. "It's ok, I'm here and brought a present with me," he took a little red box from his back.

"A present?! You remembered!!" the blonde shook in excitement.

"Of course, why wouldn't I? Here, happy birthday, Naruto-kun."

Naruto took the little red box and opened it; inside there was a necklace with an angel charm with ash wings and blonde hair. "Hey, it looks like me!" he looked at the charm closely.

"Yes, he does, huh?" he smiled and took something out of his pocket, another charm.

"Wow, you brought another charm? Let me see!" he saw a little red fox with black tipped ears and paws, and a white tipped tail.

"Do you like your present, Naruto?" he put the charm on the necklace and placed it around his neck.

"I love it, Jiji! Thanks!" he said and held on his hand the two dangling charms.

'I knew he would, the angel charm was from his father.' "Well, Naruto-kun, I have to go, now. I am Hokage, right?"

"Yeah, and that's what I'll be when I become the best Hokage the whole Konoha has seen ever!" Naruto screamed and grinned widely, which gained a chuckle from the Sandaime.

"I'll see you tomorrow, ok?" he began to walk towards the door.

"Yeah!"

"Good night, Naruto-kun."

"Good night, Jiji!"

----------------------

The next day was the day he was going to enroll to the Ninja Academy for next semester's class. He ran as fast as his legs could and went towards the Hokage tower.

The receptionist looked at the blonde and smiled, she was among the few people who didn't stare at him with hatred, "Hello, Naruto-kun, I'll call Hokage-sama now."

Naruto began to make his trip up the stairs after the nice lady made the call up to the Sandaime. He opened the doors to the Hokage's office and the Sandaime was signing some papers and looked up as Naruto entered.

"Jiji! I want to enroll in the Academy so I can become a ninja!" Naruto said filled with enthusiasm.

"Of course, why didn't I think of that? Now that you're 5, Naruto, you will go with kids your age so you can graduate and become a ninja. So, let me get out the files to enroll you," he rifled through the tons of paper and found the application for the Ninja Academy.

Naruto walked to the desk and stood tip-toed to see what he was writing. When he was done, he handed the document to Naruto.

"Now, go to the Academy so you can sign in and start next semester," the old Hokage smiled.

"Thanks, Jiji! I'm going to become a ninja!!!" he yelled as he ran out of the office.

Naruto ran through the streets, the paper in his pocked neatly folded as he made his way towards the Ninja Academy. He stopped in front of the wooden building and slowly made his way inside. He walked to the room marked "Office" and entered. A Chuunin with a scarred nose and his brunette hair pulled into a ponytail stared as the blonde walked in.

Obviously confused, the man walked towards the kid and asked, "Why are you here, gaki?"

"Um, I, uh, I'm going to register for the next semester in the Academy," he said nervously.

"Where are your parents, little guy?" he kept asking.

"I have no parents," Naruto looked to the ground ashamed, but took out the paper the Sandaime gave him, "But Jiji gave me this so I can give it to register."

"Jiji? Oh, you mean Hokage-sama. Let me see," he took the paper from the fragile boy's hands and began to read.

He went over to his desk and wrote something. "Well, Uzumaki Naruto, you are hereby registered into next semester's starting date of the Ninja Academy. Welcome aboard!" the Chuunin said it all with a friendly tone and a smile.

Naruto never felt any ninja, except the Hokage of course, who treat him with such kindness that this feeling was almost alien. "Thank you, Chuunin-san!" he hugged the man's legs.

The brunette looked down at the blonde kid and placed a hand on his waist. "You're welcome, Naruto-san."

"Um, what's your name?"

"My name, well, I'm Umino Iruka, and I'll be your sensei next semester, just so you know," he smiled.

"You will be my sensei? Awesome! Well, I gotta go, Iruka-sensei, bye!!!" he left with a quick wave and a smile present on his face.

'What an inhumanly happy kid. I guess it's because he's been so alone,' Iruka turned to his paperwork.

Naruto walked to the playground where he saw many kids playing together. He walked slowly to them, but immediately saw as their mothers called them that they had to 'go do house cleaning' or they had 'errands to attend to'. This saddened the blonde deeply and sat alone on the swing set, rolling between his index finger and his thumb the angel charm from his necklace.

From the corner of his eyes, he saw as a man walked furiously towards him, the face the man had sent shivers down his spine.

"So, my wife told me you tried to attack my kid, demon brat!" he charged his fist and began to give an unexpected beating to the defenseless boy.

Naruto didn't try to defend himself, since he was so caught up in the words that this man said, a complete lie. He closed his eyes and pleaded for unconsciousness to claim him.

The man stopped his beating as he saw the boy unconscious and walked off, without a care in the world, but he couldn't let the kid there so he thought quickly where to leave him. His face lit up, he took the boy and left him deep in the Forest of Death, where no one would see him.

Slowly, Naruto opened his eyes and scanned where he was, a dark forest with gigantic trees reaching the heavens. He paled instantly because he knew that he wouldn't make it out of the humongous forest. He felt heartbroken that he didn't have the protection of the Hokage over him. He felt everything crash down on him, no one would miss him, and they would celebrate his disappearance.

"So, they finally got what they wanted," Naruto murmured and sat against a tree.

He began to cry and buried his face into his knees, and eventually fell asleep.

The charm of the angel on his necklace glowed slightly and its face became one of pity and slowly changed into kindness. The angel glowed once more and a mark appeared on the back of the boy's neck which disappeared in a blue glow. The angel finally changed its features to its original ones and his brief life went away, remaining as just any charm.

Naruto felt a tingle at the back of his neck and woke up as a pain shot from his shoulder blades. He screamed as high as he possibly could, wanting to be heard that he was in indescribable pain. He hugged himself and clenched his teeth as the waves of pain emerged from his shoulders. He hunched his back and faced the ground as he hugged himself tighter. In a final wave of pain, he screamed as he heard his shirt rip from behind and two things shot out from his back. He collapsed onto his side and his new pair of black, red-hued, feathered wings laid as a blanket over him.

------------------

Sitting on top of a bench was none other than the crazy, psycho, Tokubetsu Jounin, Mitarashi Anko. She was enjoying herself to a few dangos when she heard a blood curdling scream from within the Forest of Death, which she watched over. She nearly broke her neck when she turned to face the forest.

In the blink of an eye, she took off and searched for the source of the scream. She couldn't find it, there wasn't any more noise, but just when she was going to return out of the forest, she felt the scream was really close. She ran after it and when she got to the source, she was surprised to see a blonde boy, about five years old, and two magnificent dark wings that were a little moist with a slightly metallic tasting red liquid… his blood.

"What could've happened to this poor kid? And how did he get here in the first place?" She looked around and used her tracking senses and found no chakra trails, but there was a distinct scent, but it was already ruined by the rain in a nearby part of the forest.

She took the kid on her arms, careful to not hurt his newly made wings. She shunshined from the forest to her apartment, where she settled the boy face down and spread his wings slowly. Taking out a towel and some water, she cleaned the wings from the blood and placed a fan next to him so the feathers would dry.

A knock on the door startled her since she doesn't get much company, but opened up anyway.

"Ibiki-san? What are you doing here?" she asked, keeping him outside.

"I went to get you to your precious forest, but you weren't there. Don't you remember that we have a job to do down at the ANBU Torture and Interrogations?" he snarled at her.

"I was in my lunch break, and a little situation showed up."

"A situation? When do you not have one?" he chuckled.

"It's serious, Ibiki!" she glared.

"Hmm, there's never something serious in your situations, why is it an exception?"

"Come," she dragged him inside and slammed the door. She pulled him along to her bedroom and stood inside.

Ibiki went wide eyed at the sight of such a young kid bearing those majestic-looking wings. He studied the kid and when he went to his face, he smirked. "I can't believe this is the Naruto kid."

"Naruto? You mean, this is the kid that the villagers call the 'demon brat'?" she stared at Ibiki.

"Yeah, I wonder if this kid is really one of those 'fallen angels' or it's his dead parents' Kekkei Genkai."

"There is a myth that says that 'fallen angels' come from pain they endure and when they fall from the heavens their feathers symbolize their pain."

"Anko, I never took you to be one of those philosophic ones," he grinned.

"Bah, I am not and never will be," she turned her head away.

"I guess this kid must've gotten a real bad beating yesterday."

Anko sighed in pity and quickly straightened when the blonde began stirring.


A/N: OOOOOHHHH!!!!! How was that?! I know he didn't grow up with the wings, but he got them now. So just to keep this brief and simple... Like it? Dislike it? Needs fixing? Any criticism is accepted, as long as it's there, it makes me happy it's being read. =]

Until next update!!! ^w^
