Naruto stood in font of his old village. Good old Konoha didn't seem to have changed at all. He pulled on his hood and put a black mask on.

He walked up to the gates

Naruto woke up. It was his 13th birthday. It was also the 4th Hokage Memorial Day. A birthday was usually everybody's favorite day, but not Naruto's. He dreaded his birthday. The day people remember the loss of their great hokage and the Kyuubi killing everyone. This day he would have rocks and sticks thrown at him. He would find his house trashed.

Naruto groaned and got out of bed. He started his birthday routine by taking all of his valuables and favorite things and put them in a box. He took the box and put it under his bed under the floorboard he pulled up. Nobody could find it.

He went to the kitchen and had some instant Ramen. Naruto went into the bathroom. Man, Ramen makes me have to pee like a racehorse! He thought. When he was done Naruto looked into the mirror. Naruto put on his big smile, the best mask.

"Well off to training!" He walked out the door, not bothering to lock it. If he did they would just knock it down and Naruto didn't like replacing doors.

He would be early but who cares. Naruto walked to the bridge where he met Kakashi-sensei and his teammates. He was so lost in thought he didn't see somebody trip him.

"Grr, Watch it demon!" Naruto ignored the man and kept on walking. He was walking by a large building when a huge wave of cold water fell on top of his head.

"Oi! Watch it!" Naruto looked up to see a woman with a bucket in her hand.

"Sor-," The lady started to say sorry but then she realized it was Naruto. Her sincere smile turned into a disgusting hateful face. She threw the bucket at him and slammed her window. Naruto caught the bucket and set it down. He kept on walking. These things just kept on happening. Someone threw a rock at his face and people kept on tripping him. They all said mean things like,

"Get out of this village beast!"

"You should have died!"

"Demon."

He couldn't stand it anymore. He hated himself, but he also hated the demon more.

Naruto, as usual, ignored them and kept his head down. He ran into somebody and braced himself for the hateful words.

"Naruto, you should watch where you're going!" The person giggled. Naruto looked up and his heart sank. He thought it would be somebody who accepted him for the demon. But it just turned out to be Ino. Naruto knew what words would come out of her mouth next, and he was right, "Are you going to meet Sasuke-kun today? Tell him I said Hi!"

Naruto stood up and brushed himself off. He walked right past her.

"How rude." She muttered.

Naruto finally arrived at the bridge.

(This part is the flashback from the previous chapter. )

"Goodbye." Naruto said before disappearing in a cloud of smoke.

He ran as fast as he could up the stairs. Naruto hated the villagers. It seemed everyone hated him. His important people sucked. He had to leave the village. Naruto was thinking. Sakura is a jerk and only cares about precious Sasuke. I could kill him right now. Him and his cool guy attitude. Kakashi only seems to care about Sasuke too. Iruka is mad at me. I didn't mean to set fire to his house. It's still standing. I have nobody… Except for Tsunade obaasan.

Naruto got out his backpack and put his box of precious things in it. He packed food and clothes in it. He got a piece of paper and a pen out. He wrote a note.

Konoha Citizens!

This is Naruto Uzumaki! In case you don't know. There is no need to trash my house anymore. There is no need for anything anymore.

You have gotten your wish! I am leaving the village. This will be a good day today for you now that the "monster" has left the village.

From,

Naruto Uzumaki

Naruto taped the paper to the door and disappeared. He soared over the rooftops and landed in an open window. He stepped onto the floor.

"What do you want now Naruto? Aren't you supposed to be training with Kakashi?" Tsunade asked turning around. She looked at him curiously. Naruto was standing there with a backpack, a single tear rolling down his face. She stood up "What's wrong?"

"I am leaving the village."

"WHAT?"

"I can't be here anymore. I can't possibly survive another year before I go mad and do something stupid."

"I cannot let you leave Konoha, Naruto."

"Then send me on a mission Tsunade- obaasan! Send me on a mission that will get me away from here, on a super long one."

"Do you really want to leave that bad? If we let you go all alone the Akatsuki or Orochimaru will be after you in a second!"

"They won't get me! I will be back, and I won't die! Remember, Tsunade- obaasan, I always keep my word. That is my way of the ninja!"

0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0

5 years later

Tsunade was daydreaming. She was in a meeting with all of the Jounin, and ANBU. All of the Jounin and some ANBU were Naruto's old friends. Sasuke and Sakura were Jounin as well. She was discussing the missions and all of the basic things. The other ninja's were talking about the whereabouts of the Akatsuki. Tsunade was thinking about Naruto and was wondering is the Akatsuki had gotten him, either them or Orochimaru. Just then the middle of the table was engulfed in smoke and a big Poof sounded. She stood up. Once the smoke cleared her eyes got wide. Lying in the middle of the table were the heads of the Akatsuki. The Jounin and ANBU stood up.

"Is this real, what's the meaning of this?" they said.

Another poof sounded in front of her and a note appeared out of thin air. She caught it and opened the note.

I told you they wouldn't get me

P.S. If the bastard Sasuke is still there, tell him sorry but someone else got to Itachi first. Also tell him that his reason for living is dead and even though there is nothing else to live for, just live.

She looked at Sasuke who was wide-eyed and shocked. Tsunade smiled and sank back down into her chair. Naruto. She thought.

0o0o0o0o0o00o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0oo0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0

One year after that, the same thing happened except with Orochimaru's head.

Naruto, then, had lost the affectionate heart. He has never truly smiled since then. Even he doesn't know why. He was like Garra, in a way. But Naruto doesn't kill to prove his existence. He is fear itself to other people. In Naruto's eyes, fear is better then hate. Except it wasn't fear of the Kyuubi. In fact nobody know the bounty hunter 'Black Shadow' had a demon sealed inside him.

Naruto knew, though. He placed on himself a 12 part seal, making sure the kyuubi couldn't get out. Naruto could still use the kyuubi's chakra but it was certain that he could never get out of his body. But the demon could get to him in his dreams.

Now

Naruto walked up to the gates. The two ANBU guarding the gate seemed to be sleeping. Naruto smirked, what is Konoha coming to? He thought. Naruto pulled his mask a bit tighter and opened up the gates leading into Konoha.
