Blank Headband
Disclaimer: Don't own Naruto. Wish I did, but don't.
A young boy sat in curled up ball in his bed as he cried himself to sleep. He felt no happiness, he felt no hope, all he had was pain, hate, and confusion. Pain from the cold stares and menacing glares that were directed at him, even if he was only five, and never did any thing wrong to anyone. Hate, he hated the other villagers, he couldn't understand why they would do this to him, all he wanted to be noticed, be loved. Yet, all they do is ignore and glare, one guy even tried to hit me. Confusion, why did they do this to him, why would a five year old boy be the most despised person in the village? Did he ever hurt them? Was he some kind of trouble maker? He just wanted to know so he could fix his problems so that people in the village would for take to him and not even love him, just like him.
The young boy known as Naruto got from his balled up position and turned to the window, he did this sometimes when he was depressed. As he stared at the window he started to think that maybe other people in other places would like him a lot better then they did here. Maybe if he went some where else people would accept him for who he was, and even if they did not like him, they might even tell him why. From that moment on Naruto decided that it would be better for every one if he just left the village. He would no longer have to put up with the cold stares of the villagers, and the villagers would no longer have to put up with him.
Naruto packed his bags of what little he had and opened to door ready to meet the outside world, and maybe one day find happiness. He thought against leaving tomorrow, since something might happen that would make hi rethink his decision, and the sooner he was out, the better. It was not like someone would actually care once he left the village. With that Naruto ran threw the village and was soon at a little hole in the wall that he had found a while ago. It was just big enough for him to put him and his bag to bag to pass threw it.
As soon as he was out of the village gates, he ran, he ran as fast as he could, he did not turn back and look at the village that had abused him, he did not stop and take a breath. He just ran and never stopped till his body gave out and he fell into a peaceful slumber.
It had been a ten days since Naruto had left the Leaf, and no one had even noticed that he young boy was gone, and if anyone ever did they didn't care. You would think that the person meant to take care of the young boy would noticed since he was supposed to come every day. Well he would have noticed, if he came every day. Like every village other villager in the Leaf, the caretaker of Naruto could care less about the young boy which he took care of. He even showed this by only coming about every week just so he could deliver food to the Naruto, and leave right after checking to see if the child was still alive. As the caretaker had taken the food into the young boys home and dropped it off, he called out for him to pick it. He was in a hurry since he had a date with one of the traveling girls from another village, so he had even less patience for Naruto then he usually did. After about five minutes of yelling for the boy to come, he quickly left with a few well placed curses.
The only reason that Naruto was found missing was from a chase inspection of the young boys living quarters by the Hokage, and was found missing. As soon as the Hokage had found out he alerted the ANBUs to search the whole Fire country and see if they could find any trace of the boy. Yet it was to late for them to do anything about the runaway, since he had already left the Fire Country about three days prior to the village finding out, and was in the Hidden Mist Village eating ramen, while the ANBUs were frantically searching the whole of Fire Country to see if they could turn up any trace of the young boy. The ex-caretaker of the young boy was punished, and sent to a deserted post int eh middle of a wasteland for four years, and was never seen again. It is rumored that he was attacked by missing-nins from the Leaf who were looking for information of a blond, blue eyed boy.
The Hokage could do nothing about the young boys disappearance, since he was not even student of the academy, and not a ninja, he could not declare the run away a missing-nin. He didn't even know of how to control chakra, much less any jitsus from the Leaf. After about a month of fruitless searching the Hokage called everything off, deciding that Naruto was long gone in another country, or killed, man he hoped for the first one. The village was also getting really pissed off that they Sodaime was spending so much man power on the boy, if he wish to be gone, then so be it. It was all the better that they would never have to put up with the boy ever again. As the leader of one of the strongest villages sat and thought about Naruto, he only wondered of what could have happened to him, yet something inside of him told him that if the young boy was still alive somewhere that he would soon be seeing him.
5 years later
Two figures run threw the trees, dodging the trees, and leaping on the blanches, they were silent as there foot touched the bark of the tree. You could barley hear the leafs as the brushed by their cloaks. Any passer by would only see two blurs rushing threw the forest, that is if they saw anything at all. Both of the figures both had on dark cloaks that covered every thing about then except for their feet, and the tops of their head. The only way that you could tell the difference between them was that one of forms had his hair covered by a Saskat, and on his back a wrapped up package that seemed to be a mummified himan. The other one did not have anything covering his head, so you could clearly see his bright blond hair. You could also that his ears were both pierced, the right had 3 rings, the left had four. The most startling thing about him, was his eyes. His eyes were not like the eyes of other people, they were blood red, and seemed to come of a fierce beast.
"Are you sure that this is were we are supposed to find this guy." said the figure with the Saskat.
"Yes, he leaves his village every Thursday in the morning to go fishing by the river nearby. Said the other. As they neared their destination, the guy with the Saskat tapped his partner on the shoulder and pointed over to were a old man was sitting by the stream drinking sake. . The blond nodded and looked forward ready to attack at any time. Before they reached the stream they landed upon a near by branch, and stared at the target. Before they made their move, they were surprised to hear the old man speak, and to them.
"Well it seems like someone finally sent someone to put an end to me. I expected as much. Yet, I never thought they would send to assassins such as your self to take me out, I must really be something special." He then turned his head over to were the two boys were and smiled.
Startled the two boys jumped from the branches and landed the right and the left of the old man. "I don't know how you knew it was us old man, but it does not matter because you shall die anyway." the blond silently uttered in a whispered tone, as if he was telling him a secret.
"Well I was right, someone not only sent assassins the knock me off, they sent to the two Brothers of the Damned, Naruto and Misuki. Well it seems that my work it cut out for me." he then stood up and dusted himself of stood ready for the fight to commence. "Well shall we begin?" Misuki lifted up his hat revealing deep black eyes, and unstrapped out of his back and stood ready, while Naruto got into a fighting stance. Naruto then whispered "Well prepare to die, this is the last time day of this earth, Jiraiya"
Well how did you like it. If people like this story I will continue to write it. If you have any comments about the story could please tell me, so I could improve the story for you, the reader. I have one thing I would like to say before you comment, I DON'T DO SLASH, don't like it. If you have nay jitsus that you could help me out with it would really be helpful, I have a few, yet I really need more for now. Sorry to leave you on a cliffy, but I need sleep. I will not be using the name Misuki for very long, I shall change by the next chapter.
