The Kyuubi Chakra was split into two halves and sealed into Naruto's sisters, the Yang into Erza, and the Yin into Mito. But there was another being there that night, and three possible hosts. Minato was able to survive the sealing by changing the seal at the last minute, not realizing his mistake until years later. First six chapters adopted from Jinx777.

The night the Nine-Tails appeared, Madara led the attack, hoping to destroy the Leaf Village once and for all. However, the Fourth's jutsu sealed Madara and the demon into a newborn baby. Naruto, cursed with a chakra even more sinister than the Nine Tail's, will now challenge a rising Akatsuki under new leadership, and determine which path to justice he will take.

AU: Light vs Dark, Biju vs Humanity, Village vs Village. Wars of all types have existed in the world as far as anyone can remember. Naruto is born with a soul of purity, a strong human spirit, and a bond with the embodiment of hatred, a biju name Kurama. What side will Naruto choose when each side actively manipulates his life to gain him on their side?
