"S-sakura you can't be serious...you dont mean it right?" the tan jinchuriki stuttered over his own words, trying to forget the harsh words and objects being thrown at him "you couldn't even bring Sasuke back! I'm so done with you naruto, you're good for nothing and nothing but a monster to this village...the same monster that destroyed the leaf village 14 years ago! we could never be friends unless Sasuke was here" she had stared at him with those eyes, the ones he was usually looked at with "god, I wish you would just go away and never come back" "but that wasn't me… it was the Kyuubi!" he just couldn't bring himself to talk, all that came out were tears spilling rapidly from his eyes as he ran back to his apartment "sakura...that was a bit harsh dont you think?" Kakashi the copy ninja looked down at his student, clearly blinded by rage since her beloved 'Sasuke' wasn't back yet.

"It's the truth and naruto needed to know that..his existence has only brought harm to Konohagakure all its people...Tch and to think he thought he could become-" "sakura! That's enough! Do you know naruto nearly died trying to bring Sasuke back?! How do you think he feels right now? And remember Sasuke is the one who left naruto bloody and ready to die on the ground! You honestly dont know anything of what it's like for naruto, and I won't let you talk down on him just because you couldn't get Sasuke!" Kakashi, the calmest and collected person you could ever meet was fuming right now his memories flashed back to when he had found naruto there on the ground. Hole in his chest about a bug's way from dying.

He thought about if only he had been there sooner then naruto wouldn't have had to fight Sasuke at all...maybe if he had just...made it there in time. " sakura I want you to go apologize to naruto tomorrow morning and thank him for trying to bring Sasuke back. And I will report back to lady Tsunade in the meantime" he weaved a single hand sign and then he was gone in the smoke. Sakura remained still..in shock at what she had just said and done to Naruto, Kakashi was 100% right...naruto is a jinchuriki and all jinchuriki went through mostly the same pain...sakura is disgusted with herself. Naruto only wanted to bring his best friend back and was nearly killed in doing so

...

Naruto couldn't believe what sakura had told him...why did everyone always think of him as a monster? Why is it always me! I did nothing and yet the village treats me like the plague..maybe sakura was right, maybe I do need to leave...leave, and never return. Konoha was just a toxic place with toxic people and toxic ways.

Yes that's right child~

"W-what? Who are you and how are you talking to me?"

Are you really that naive? I'm the nine tails

"The nine tails? Oh…"

Yes, naruto…

"But what do you want? And why come out NOW of all times?"

Because naruto...I'm sick of seeing the people here treat us like this, it isn't your fault it's mine...so I thought I'd help you get away from this village...

"But I thought you hated humans"

I do, but we technically share a body so what happens to you happens to me. This meaning I will just have to cope with it for now. Now grab your things and leave this ratchet village, and I shall teach you multiple styles of jutsu's, things the shinobi here could never teach you!

"Jutsu? I dont know...I mean I was planning to leave but should I trust you…?" naruto was already questioning the Kyuubi, he was the nine tails… an angry chakra monster that destroyed the hidden leaf years ago after all..but then again, if he was telling him the truth and he really was going to teach him jutsu...he could use that and come back to destroy the leaf!

I have no reason to lie to you naruto… but I suggest you leave around midnight, no one guards the gates around then

" What does that mean?'

Dobe….it means no one will see you and start chasing you! The Kyuubi yelled and the voice ringed throughout his head.

"Okay okay I'm sorry"

We will need to work on your stupidity as well… it's aggravating

He rolled at his eyes at that

"Okay, I accept. You will now be my sensei you damned fox"

Call me Kurama

"Yeah yeah I could do that but it is funnier calling you a fox"

...

"Do you smell that Samehada? Yes...immense chakra….where is it coming from...Itachi can you use Sharingan and look?" Kisame and Itachi had been sent on a mission to gain info on Konohagakure before they captured the nine tails jinchuriki and had been about nights way from said village before they felt the intense chakra. Itachi nodded and activated his Sharingan and looked around, spotting what he would never think he'd see in a million years "naruto?"

Naruto heard his name being called so he came to a halt before searching for the person who called him. Then he saw it, it was Itachi Uchiha "Itachi? What are you doing here- I hope you aren't here to capture me.." naruto complained, he was finally going to get some real training and the Akatsuki had to come along. "No we aren't… but if you dont mind me asking what are you doing outside of the village at this time at night" Itachi only asked because he was genuinely curious, and where was the blond shinobi's forehead protector? He wasn't wearing it. "I'm leaving the hidden leaf, for good" naruto blankly said

Kisame was the first to speak "as in...going rouge?" he looked at the boy who had once been so devoted to this damned village hidden in the leaves "hm… I guess you could say that" he replied again, his words laced with no emotion "I see…" Itachi only got out half his sentence before a kunai was thrown straight at him and Kisame. Naruto didn't even get time to see where it had come from before a shadow was suddenly attacking Itachi left and right, kicking into his side "damn it!" naruto had to act fast, this shinobi had to be strong if not even Itachi could sense him "shadow clone jutsu! Rasengan!" in one swift movement naruto had pressed his Rasengan on the shinobi who wasn't even focused on the other two people.

"What the hell?" naruto asked, also wondering why Itachi was attacked so easily. According to Sasuke, Itachi was one of the strongest shinobi in the world! How could he have been targeted so easily? "It's the chakra I sensed earlier, I thought it was naruto but no this is more sinister" Kisame confirmed, his slimy face turning into a wicked smile "well I and Samehada were looking for a fight anyway. You good Itachi?" naruto had almost forgotten about Itachi for a second. He looked in the spot he last saw the Uchiha in and to his surprise the 'body' that was lying on the ground was nothing but a shadow clone.

The real Itachi stood over the shinobi who had just attacked him, staring down his soul with his Sharingan. Of course, Itachi couldn't be surprised like that, of course, he saw that attack coming. "Who is it? Kisame asked before walking over "I dont know. This shinobi isn't wearing a forehead protector" Itachi replied, carefully. Naruto walked over to the two and looked down at him. He knew who he was, Danzo. Naruto suddenly had an urge to stomp.

Stomp something. Or rather...someone. Danzo always had a burning hatred for naruto, which meant he knew that Naruto had left the village and that he had come out himself to kill naruto to prevent him from telling any hidden leaf secrets. He must not have known Itachi nor Kisame was with him or else he would have been less reckless with his attack. Naruto saw he was still breathing. Still alive so he did the next best thing. Get over him and punch him right across his face "why? WHY IS IT ALWAYS ME? I HAVENT DONE ANYTHING TO THIS FUCKING VILLAGE YET I GET TREATED LIKE A MONSTER! YOU HAD NO REASON TO COME HERE AND TRY AND MURDER JUST BECAUSE IM A JINCHURIKI! I DIDNT ASK TO BE BORN LIKE THIS SO WHY" naruto had been punching Danzo over and over again, not allowing him to speak.

Itachi and Kisame had been truly baffled. "Naruto that's enough, we still need to ask him questions" Itachi moved him off of Danzo and places two slender fingers against his neck to feel if he was still alive. "Is he dead or what?" Kisame asked, still ready to attack and feed his sword "not yet...nearly though. I doubt we'd be able to ask him any questions, he isn't conscious.." Itachi stood up and looked over at Naruto "Naruto...you are coming with us" before naruto got the chance to decline the 'offer' he was placed under a genjutsu.

….

Sakura woke up early, the asscrack of dawn she also knew Naruto wouldn't be up at this time but she needed to apologize for her actions. Not only because Kakashi sensei said to but because she knew what she had said was completely wrong and Naruto didn't deserve it. She decided to give him a basket filled with some of her homemade food to also help. When she had finally seen sight of his apartments she lightly knocked on the door. And to her surprise it was already open 'that idiot..why does he leave his door unlocked like this" "naruto!?' she looked around in every room and found nothing "maybe he got up early to train or something" she sighed and went outside to look for Kakashi.

Just as she was about to walk over to Kakashi's house he jumped right in front of her, he looked tired but you couldn't really tell because of the mask. "Oh hi Kakashi sensei, I was just about to go see you. Have you seen Naruto? Knowing him he could be training or something...:" that's when the look of distress on Kakashi's face turned into a panic "no I was going to ask you that! I've been looking for him all morning and I can't find him" sakura dropped the basket in shock "d-does lady Tsunade know?" Kakashi nodded "she sent out a group of Anbu black ops a while ago, he isn't anywhere in the hidden leaf" did naruto get kidnapped? Or did he leave….no...Naruto wouldn't he couldn'tjust leave Konoha...

...

"Did you get the information?"

"Yes. and something else"

"Something else?"

"Naruto Uzumaki"

"The nine tails jinchuriki?"

"Yes"

"But we were thinking...maybe naruto could join us? He left the hidden leaf and slashed his forehead protector"

"Oooh, a new member? How about that Deidara? Isn't that awesome!?"

"Shut up Tobi, I'm trying to listen"

"You said that last time when I wanted to show you a turtle I found! You were too busy painting that stupid art stuff"

"TOBI ART IS NOT 'STUPID' ART IS AN EXPLOSION AND-"

"That's enough you two"

"Anyway as I was saying..naruto is now a rogue ninja and I'm guessing he has no place to go...and he could give us all the information on the hidden leaf and maybe some other-"

"I get it Kisame….yes it would be a good idea to use naruto..but have you asked him if he wanted to?

"Well no not yet Itachi has him under a genjutsu right now"

"I see...Konan!"

"Yes, Nagato?"

"Put naruto in one of the rooms in the back"
