Anger. That was all he felt as he glared at his one-time teammate and best friend. Though after the shit show that had been this mission, Naruto was really questioning what he considered a friend now. Sasuke Uchiha was a true bastard.

"You freaky eyed asshole," Naruto growled as he spat out blood and struggled to his feet. The Last Uchiha was more than willing to return the gesture.

"Your one to talk Naruto," Sasuke muttered as he glanced at the blonde's new appearance. Some sort of red energy had surrounded his former teammate, taking on the shape of a fox. His eyes were a fierce blood red color while his whisker marks on his cheeks had darkened and his hair seemed to take on a ragged, feral look. All in all the Uzumaki was looking more animalistic by the second.

"You know ever since that snake asshole gave you that curse hickey, you've been a bigger pain than usual," Naruto shouted as to took in Sasuke's new look. His skin had taken a tanned tone, while his hair had gone from black to gray. The strangest part of his transformation was the two hand like appendages that had sprouted from his back, giving him wings. "Just end this already! Come back to the village! We can sort this out with baa-chan and the pervy sage!"

"There is no going back," Sasuke said in return as dark electricity began to build around his hand.

Naruto looked at the charging electricity. And at that moment any respect he had for his teammate disappeared. He knew what the Chidori was and what it was used for. At this moment his anger reached a point that it had never reached before.

'Hey, Fox. I don't know if you can hear me, but I need you to give me everything you can!" Naruto thought to the bijuu residing inside of him. Deep within the confines of the seal, the fox stirred

'Hehe fine. You better rip this little Uchiha shit to pieces brat." The Kyuubi replied with a bloodthirsty grin as sent another tails worth of chakra to his blond jailer. As much as the demon fox hated being in his current circumstances, he hated the Uchiha clan even more.

Naruto felt the effects immediately as another tail started to sway behind him. He had never gone this far with the Kyuubi's chakra. One tail was almost overpowering, but this new wave of energy was about to make him go ballistic. Naruto began to charge up his own technique The swirl of chakra forming in his hand started out blue but quickly began to change to a dark red color.

The two rivals sent one last look to one another. They both knew that this was it for them. The last attack that either one of them could muster up.

Naruto knew that he had to keep his promise to Sakura. But as he glared at Sasuke, he also knew that it didn't mean he had to bring him back with both limbs intact. With that thought passing through him, Naruto began to charge at Sasuke. Sasuke doing the same.

"Rasengan!"

"Chidori!"

The two teens collided in mid-air. Rasengan vs Chidori. Pure chakra vs corrupted electricity. In that single moment, something happened that neither genin expected. Naruto's Rasengan was made up of a mixture of Naruto's own chakra and the chakra that belonged to the demonic beast that resided in his gut. Sasuke's Chidori was corrupted by the curse seal making it a dark mixture of natural and unnatural. Both energies colliding could only equal one outcome.

Pure chaos.

White energy began to pour from the colliding attacks forming a dome around the two teens. Soon there was more pain then either teen had ever felt coursing through them. This pain spread through both teen's bodies, but neither of them wanted to back down. Both of them had goals that they wished to obtain, even at the cost of their own well being.

Determination filled Naruto as he glared at his rival. He refused to go down like this. Refused to go down to his teammate with the dark lovebite. With this determination came a rage that was completely new to him and with this rage he found a new reason to beat Sasuke. He wasn't doing it for Sakura anymore. Wasn't doing it for Konoha. Wasn't doing anyone person.

He was doing it to prove that he was the better person. Better warrior. Better ninja. And with that, his Rasengan began to overpower the Chidori, shocking Sasuke as the red orb slammed into his hand started to shred his arm apart. A new pain formed in Sasuke as he finally noticed what had happened to him. He was forced back due to the power of the attack and slammed into the water.

Naruto didn't think Sasuke was dead, but at the moment he didn't really care. Because the orb began to shift around and collapse around him. Even as it did though Naruto smiled.

Because he won. He beat the supposed strongest genin in the village. And even if this weird energy killed him, he still had that. That was the last thing he thought before the pain became too much and he blacked out.

Pain surged through Naruto as he slowly began to open his eyes. He didn't recognize his surroundings as the trees didn't match anything in Fire country. And it was cold. Much too cold. He tried to move, but the pain was too much and screamed.

He remembered the fight with Sasuke and he couldn't help but grin. That bastard had the beating coming to him and he was glad he was the one who did it. If he could move his body he would be jumping in joy, but that seemed off the table right now.

"Well, this is bad." He muttered to himself as struggled to roll to his back. Bad was an understatement. He was in an unknown area with numerous injuries. He was up shit creek without a paddle. Naruto did know that if he didn't start to recover soon he would be easy pickings for any predators out there. Hopefully, he wasn't in some land with giant snakes.

He groaned as he tried to stand and looked at his form. Numerous cuts and gashes littered his form, but to his shock, they were healing at an amazing rate.

'Hey, Fox! Is this your doing?' Naruto thought to his tenant as he continued to heal. He had always had a good healing factor, but this was something else. Usually, it took him up to a day to fully heal, but this was happening much quicker.

'You foolish brat! Do you have any idea what you've done!' The demon fox roared so loudly that it made Naruto's already pounding head hurt even more.

'Damn! Fine I guess you're in no mood right now.' Naruto thought with a grunt as his sore and beaten body finally got off the ground. His wounds were healing to a point that there wasn't even a scar on him. Except for the mark on his chest where Sasuke had scored a hit with a Chidori. There was a large scar on his chest from that attack, but he would just have to wear that one with pride.

'Due to your petty squabble with that Uchiha, we are no longer in our world!' The Kyuubi shot back and Naruto froze in his spot.

"What do you mean our world!?" Naruto asked vocally in shock.

'Let me put it bluntly to you so your insignificant mind can comprehend what I'm about to tell you. When your attacks collided it create a breach in our world. A rip so to speak. We were unlucky when you fell in brat because when you entered that breach it did something to you! Change you into something else!' Kyuubi explained with a snarl.

'So is that why my healing abilities are so much stronger?' Naruto asked as dropped to the ground again.

'Let's just say you are less of a human and more of a something else...' The fox muttered as everything went silent inside his head. All this new information almost caused Naruto to have a mental breakdown. Another world. New healing powers. And to top it off he was no longer just a human. He didn't know what, but if the overgrown fuzzball wasn't telling him it couldn't be good.

Then all at once everything went seemed to slow down and Naruto could smell and hear everything around him. Smell the day-old scent of the mother grizzly and her two cubs. Hear the flapping as a hawk took off from way above him. It was so much to register and so very amazing.

"Is this how you see the world, Fox?" Naruto wondered aloud as he continued to take deep inhales of air. He received no answer, but he could have sworn he heard a deep chuckle. "It's not so bad.." Whatever had happened to him had increased his sense of sight and smell and he was actually kind of alright with it.

"Alright first things first," Naruto said as he slowly began to move around, "I need to figure out just where the hell I am."

Two weeks. That was how long Naruto had been stuck out in the middle of nowhere. A long two weeks spent forging and hunting for whatever food he could find and whatever training he could fit in. His chakra control was still pretty terrible and if anything his chakra had increased since having come to this new world. He had also tried getting into contact with Konoha via Toad summoning, but something strange had happened. Something was blocking his summoning. He could bring forth the correct amount of chakra to summon a toad like Gamakichi and do the correct hand signs, but nothing would happen. It was like he was cut off. To make matters even worse, the fox had gone completely silent ever since the first day and was of no help.

He had made camp in a cave that was not far from a river. It was dry and it kept him protected from the elements. Naruto had also done his best to go unnoticed from any humans that were in the area. He had no idea if they were hostile or not and he had no wish to find out. He had noticed a couple of things about these people from his time here. For one they spoke an entirely different language than him, so he had no clue as to what any of them were saying. Another thing was that they didn't use chakra at all. And lastly, he hadn't seen a single shinobi or kunoichi since he had arrived here.

All in all these the few people that he had seen seemed relaxed if not happy from being out here. It was actually kind of nice to see people just relaxing and enjoying nature. But something seemed different today. There was a new scent in the air. Something foreign. Naruto thought that it smelled like metal. Whatever it was he would need to keep an eye out for anything strange.

'Hey, Fox you awake?' A growl was his answer.

'Now I am you little shit. What do you want?' Kyuubi asked annoyed at being bothered. Oh, how he missed the days where the blonde screwup was oblivious to his existence. At least then he could get a proper nap in peace without being bugged by his brat of a jailer.

'Was just wondering if you had any ideas on how to get home?' Naruto longed to see the massive gates and walls of his home village. He missed his friends and teammates and every day he was gone made him more determined to get back.

'Brat if I had any ideas I wouldn't tell you in the first place.' The fox answered with a snort. 'Besides, why do you wish to go back! They treated you like shit in that village! You're better off without those ignorant fools!'

'Shut up you asshole!'

'Why? Does the truth hurt brat?' The smug voice of the fox was starting to piss him off, but Naruto was also having a hard time refuting what he was saying. While he had made some incredible friends in the village, the majority of people still ignored him or outright expressed their hatred of him.

Before Naruto could further argue with the fox, he smelled that new scent again. Only this time it was much closer. Naruto jumped up and landed on a tree branch. Looking out into the forest, he saw multiple figures with strange weapons in their hands. Using his new hearing, he tried to listen in on them.

"Approaching area where energy signature was last located." One of the figures said as he approached Naruto's makeshift home.

"Be careful. Don't want to alert the target." Another one of them said and that was Naruto needed know and he booked it out of there. He had no idea who these guys were but they were looking for him. And that couldn't be good.

Trying to be as silent as possible, he began to travel by jumping from tree branches. His small body easily cleary any distance. A smirk fell on his face he prepared to jump again. So caught up in being silent, he failed to notice that the next branch was a dead branch.

"Aaah!" He fell over 50 feet to the cold hard ground with all eyes on him. "Oww that hurt." Seeing that half a dozen goons in black were now staring at him, Naruto could only do one thing. "Uh hi?" with one hand raised in greeting.

"Target spotted!"

"Take him down."

'Run you, idiot!' The fox roared from inside Naruto. Taking off at incredible speeds, Naruto pushed past several of the soldiers, ignoring the pain the came from his oddly bent arm. It hurt like a bitch, but Naruto didn't want to be caught by these people so he would quit his griping about it. Even now the break was healing so it was like he had nothing to worry about.

A loud bang came from behind him and Naruto saw a small dart fly past him and hit a tree in front of him.

'Shit!' After seeing these strange darts, Naruto ran even faster, channeling chakra to his legs.

"Target is out of sight. Moving an unknown speed southwest!"

"Unit three is in the area. Stay on this freak and bring him down!"

Naruto ran faster than he had ever run before and when he saw that there were reinforcements coming in he knew what he had to do. These men were coming in those strange machines called vehicles. He would need to get out of here fast.

"Kage Bushin No Jutsu!" Several clones appeared in a cloud of smoke. His chakra control might suck worse than usual right now but he could still use his signature technique.

"Shit now there's ten of the brat!" One of the soldiers cried and the blonde smirked as they all darted up into the trees. Bouncing from tree to tree, Naruto sailed past the soldiers. He was home free. And then something drilled into him and pain surged through his body.

"AHHH SSSHHHIIIITTTT!"

For the second time that day he fell and hit the forest floor. He laid there as numerous soldiers surrounded him with there weapons pointed at him. A new figure pushed past the soldiers and glanced down at Naruto. He to had one of those strange weapons on him and his gear looked more sophisticated than the others. He raised his hand to touch something by his ear. Some sort of communication device Naruto thought.

"This Agent Zero. Target acquired. Returning to base now." Agent Zero said as he looked to one of his fellow soldiers. "Put this kid under already."

"Yes, sir." Before Naruto could react the soldier aimed his weapon and fired one of those darts at him. Dizziness filled Naruto's vision. "Jeez, this kid's still going." Another dart hit Naruto and all he was darkness.

Confusion and agony filled his very being as he awoke inside a tank. Numerous needle-like drills were inserted into him and an animalistic rage took over. Red filled his vision as his eyes darted across the massive room. People stood around him in lab coats as his red eyes looked at him. He could sense there fear. They should be afraid. Pissing off the alpha predator was never a good thing. There was one person he was particularly looking for though. He just didn't know who.

His rage was quickly taking over as pain filled his hands. Hatred filled his being and he willed himself out of the of the tub.

"Rrraaaahhhh!" The drills fell from his body as he jumped out of the tub. He grabbed one of the scientists and threw him across the room. The unfortunate man he grabbed slammed into a nearby machine causing sparks to go through the air. Alarms went off and panic filled the room as people struggled to get out. His hands were hurting even more.

Three Soldiers came into the room with there guns pointed at him. A normal man would have been scared. He wasn't normal though. They fired there M16's and bullets struck him throughout his body. And he didn't even flinch. More pain to add on. He growled as all the pain finally emerged from his hands.

Snikt!

Long metal claws erupted from his hands. Three out of each hand, sharp and covered in blood. With a swipe, he cut straight through one of the soldiers, causing the man to drop to his knees as blood spewed from his stomach. The other two saw there comrade go down and began to fire again, but he jumped right at them. Claws at the ready he speared one of the soldiers, claws piercing the man's chest. He was dead before he hit the ground. The last one went to make a run for it, but Naruto pounced one last time and with a swing of his claws took off the man's head. It fell to the floor next to the soldier's body.

Heavy breaths filled the room as he looked around at the carnage. He raised his hands and looked at his claws. Panic and rage filled his body.

"AAAGGGHHH!" He screamed like an animal as everything caught up to him. They did this to him! They tortured him. They would pay! "STRYKER!" They had taken everything from him! He would make them pay. More soldiers charged into the room and he was ready.

Tiredness and hatred. It was an odd combination of emotions, but they were the only things he felt right now as he was running through the cold snowy ground. All he could do was run. Run from the hell that had him contained and tortured. He had cut and butchered and bled as he ran. All he wanted to was stop. But the fear existed that they were right behind him. That they would come for him. And he would never be someone's guinea pig ever again.

He looked down at his hands. Dried blood had smeared them a dark red color and he thought back to his claws. And every time he thought of them, he thought of the memories he had lost.

He had no clue who he was. Where he came from. Who his family was. All the memories that were the most important to a person were gone. Every time he tried to remember, he drew a huge blank. As the wind blew around him, he tried to remember his name. He dropped to the ground, lost in his thoughts. Frustration brewed deep within him.

'What is my name?!' He asked himself, hoping that some answer would come to him.

'Naruto...' He heard a voice say faintly. So convinced that heard something he stood and released his claws, ready for a fight.

"Who's there!" He shouted as he glanced around the woods warily. "Show yourself!"

'Naruto..' There it was again. That voice! He knew that voice! But it seemed to be coming from everywhere.

"Help me! Please!" He cried as he spun around desperately looking for the voice. His head was hurting so bad. It was excruciating.

'NARUTO!' The voiced roared loudly that it seemed to echo in his head and he collapsed in pain, holding the side of his head.

It went quiet again, allowing him to slowly calm down as the pain resided.

"Naruto...That's my name..." He said with a small grin. Finally, something he could remember. His name was the last thing he thought of as he finally allowed himself to relax and slip into sleep.

His name was Naruto.

So hey guys. I'm back from my long hiatus. Really got back into writing recently and a realized that I wanted to continue with my Wolverine Naruto story. But I didn't want to continue the first one because honestly, I wanted to do it better. So hopefully this one will be what I wanted the first one to be. As always I own none of this, It's not mine, nor will it ever be mine.

Til next time dudes.
