I don't own Naruto, Masashi Kishimoto does. Joshua is my character. My story will mostly be about Joshua at first, but we work our way into the first season of Naruto, but I'm changing things with the second season. The only thing I will be picking up in the second season is there are nine tailed demons and the Akatsuki will be coming after the tail demons.
Demons' pact
A few years went by. I was now in The Hidden Sand Village, Sunagakure. I was now seven years of age but I felt like I was only three. That was when my master brought me back from the brink of death. He brought me along for this trip as he thought it would be good for me to see a hidden village and its people. I was learning there were more than ninjas living in such a place as I thought it would be a place that just warriors only lived in. There was much more than that. I was taken back by all the people. Here, I thought my master wanted me to remain hidden but here I was surrounded by people. I looked around and listened to bits and pieces of people chatting a way with each other. As we were walking, I noted that my master wasn't trying to draw attention to himself. It would have been nice if Kisame wasn't here as well. I pouted, but I had kept moving. Still I could hear the ex-ninja complain about me being with them. My master didn't say anything to him.
It was going along fine as we walked down the street, but then something happened that I couldn't stop or escape from. A crowd of people ran in between me and my master. I fell on the ground and lost sight of those black capes with red clouds on them. The shouting wasn't helping either. I was mad and upset at what was going on. Then I stood up and dusted myself off. That was when I realized my master and Kisame were gone. I looked everywhere I could without making a scene. I knew if I did something weird I would pull attention to myself, and it wouldn't be good at all. I bit my lip and move ahead. Hopefully, my master had not gone far ahead. It wasn't looking good.
I had not found either my master or that fish-man yet, but I did find a park with swings. I sat down in one and to watch the children playing. Some looked at me, but they didn't come over. I understood their fear since I was new around here and I was dressed kind of like a scary person; dark clothing, a cloak with a hood, and no shoes. The kids bounced a ball around the park while I remained on the swing trying to figure out where my master would be in this village. Then something happened that I didn't understand. The children dropped the ball and ran. I wondered if I did something to scare them off.
I turned my head and saw a red head with green eyes looking at me. He moved to the other swing and sat down. His voice was soft yet sad. "Why aren't you running away like the others?"
"Why would I? I thought they ran away because of me." I smiled.
The red head looked at me. I could feel he was confused, but his eyes showed no difference. "You are good at hiding your feelings. Are you training to be a ninja?"
Still no sign of emotion in those green eyes, but I could hear the change in the boy's heart rate. His hand gripped the chain of the swing tighter. Again he spoke with sadness within his voice. "I have no chose in that matter. You? Are you a ninja in training?"
I had to laugh and rub the back of my head. "I guess. It's just I've never been allowed to be out before and now I lost my master. He won't be happy with me at all." I looked into those green eyes and wondered what was going through that kid's head. He was different. I was about to speak again when a shadow cover both of us and then turned to look at a sand ninja. The man frowned at something or rather someone and pulled out a short knife.
"He is here to kill me, not you." That voice had turn cold. I couldn't believe it. Why would someone want to kill this kid? He had to be around my own age. Well, he did appear to be my age.
The man stepped towards us. "Sorry, but I'm talking with the kid. You should come around another time to do this...if you live of course."
My eyes flashed and suddenly the man found his feet frozen to the ground. "I'm not really in the mood to kill anyone, but if you don't agree to leave..." My own voice was cold now.
The man gasped and looked at the two of us. He was about to throw the knife; however sand then wrapped around him and crushed the man, killing him instantly. I turned and looked at the red head. "Ah, that's a neat way to get rid of your enemies. I use water myself."
"You're still not scared of me?" The sand was returning to the container on his back. Those green eyes never showed any emotions.
I was about to speak to the red head when another shadow appeared behind us. "Joshua." The voice was firm.
"Master!" I turned around and smiled.
The red head also turned his head and looked at who I was speaking too. There were two men dressed in black robes with red clouds on them. One didn't seem human to him. "So your name is Joshua?"
I had stood up and looked down at the red head. "Yes and yours?"
"Gaara. Will...I see you again?" The boy's voice was soft.
I looked back at my master. His eyes were black emotionless as usual. "I don't know Gaara, but I'll try. I have a lot of training to do. I hope to see you again soon." I moved over to my master's side. I felt his grip on my shoulder before hearing my master's deep voice.
"Train young, Gaara. Become strong and you will see young Joshua again."
Gaara watched the three disappear, but it wasn't in a puff of smoke. Instead it seemed the three became crows and flew off. "Become strong." The red head slipped off the swing and walked off into the village to do just that.
I didn't know I had anger my master so much. He didn't show any signs in front of Gaara. Maybe it was, because he didn't want to show anything front of that red head. "Listen to me Joshua. That boy."
"I know he's like me, master. I could sense the demon within him." I was then slapped across the face.
"You are stronger than that boy, Joshua." His voice had become soft. His hand caressed my burning cheek. "You are my key. Don't forget that." He gently kissed my forehead. "Go and train. Don't stop until I come for you."
The black cape with red clouds filled my sight for a moment before I was left alone. My whole body shook. Something was wrong, but I didn't know what yet so I started to train. I knew I had better do as he said since I had no where else to go for the time being.
Hours went by. I was sweating and breathing was becoming hard. Even though I had been training for awhile, I continued training. I had summoned Naga to help me train. For some reason, I was growing in anger. My chakra bubbled up from the depths of my body. Although I was tired, I tried to keep up my movements and somehow I managed. Naga moved with me. I didn't understand why I was angry. My heart was pounding harder. Naga had grown since I first had summoned him. Since he was larger, I fed him rats now. His powers were of course growing along with mine. He was becoming concerned for me.
Joshua you must stop. Your body can't take much more of this... He hissed. Don't make me bite you.
I stopped to look at Naga. My breath was come fast and short and my hands were shaking with chakra leaking out of my body. Then I noted Naga moved back a bit. "What's wrong?" I licked my dry lips with my tongue.
Your eyes have change. They look like mine... Naga hissed.
I frowned and formed a mirror from ice. The mirror was small, but it was large enough to show me what made my summon back off. My eyes they weren't human any more. No longer were my pupils were round they had become slits. The ice mirror fell to the ground breaking into several pieces. Naga disappeared in a puff of smoke. I turned and hissed at who was coming. The air chilled around me as I crouched.
"Damn it, Joshua calm down before you bring every hidden village down on us." The cloth cover sword hit the ground with a loud thud. That black cloak with red clouds covered most of the man's blue scale skin.
"What do you want, Kisame?" I hissed out as I felt my charak burn the tips of my fingers. For some unknown reason, I was still angry. "Itachi said to keep training until he came for me." Frost was growing around my feet.
Kisame glared at me. "Damn it. I don't have time to baby sit you, but Itachi had been called out unexpectedly. He told me to bring you in." He gripped his sword's handle tightly. "So stop being a sore brat and come in."
My eye twitched. "I don't believe you, fish face." I was glad Naga left as it would be hard explaining why he was there in the first place. I didn't know what would happen next. "So go away." Mist started to climb around me.
"Stop this right, now or I personally will kick your ass back to the cave." Kisame frowned as he put his sword back on his shoulder.
"Like you can try..." My voice was deep. I was not my normal self for sure.
It felt like hours but it took place in minutes. There was the scent of blood in the air. It wasn't strong, but it was there. Kisame was holding his arm instead of his sword while I had blood on my hand. He glared at me, and I was glaring back. "I don't listen to you, only my master. You got that, Fish Face." Ice was everywhere. Mist came out of both our mouths.
"Fuck! Here I thought you're a weak little brat." Kisame coughed. "Still I'm telling you the truth. You have to go back now." He didn't move as he didn't like how I kick his butt, but then he wasn't ready for what happen.
"You know what, Joshua. You were just like Itachi. He was a genin at your age and became a chuunin in a couple of years. Now you had made your point in drawing some blood, but you haven't killed me yet." Kisame stood up and gripped his sword.
"You still aren't Itachi." The sword came at me; however, it was block by a kunai. Both Kisame and I looked at Itachi who had appeared out of nowhere. I didn't move or drop my defense. Those red eyes looked at me then at Kisame.
"What is going on here?" Itachi's voice was deep and unforgiving. The air became colder. "I'm waiting for answer, Kisame." That was when the air became ice.
"I was told to get Joshua. They told me you had gone on a mission." Kisame backed off from Itachi and lowered his sword.
Itachi frowned. "Yes, they gave me a mission, but I wasn't going to leave Joshua out here." He lowered his kunai. He turned and looked at me, smiling strangely at me. I shivered at the smile. "I have seen your power grew greatly. Come with me then. I don't think it would good if you stayed alone right now." The missing Uchiha then turned and glared at Kisame. "Don't you dare say a word of this, or I will move you mind from your body."
My body calmed down as I saw Kisame back away further. I knew my master was one of the strongest and one that would carry out his threats without any trace of remorse. The ice around us then disappeared.
"Be glad Joshua didn't use his other blood limit on you, Kisame. You might have not walk away from this place." Itachi put his hand on my shoulder, and we disappeared in a flock of crows.
Well there another chapter of Joshua's history I'm going to finish his history in the third chapter and we get to our heroes and villians. We all love from Naruto
