Birds of a Feather
Prologue
Summary: Uzumaki Naruto and Hyuuga Hinata both orphaned against their will, jinchuuriki to the Kyuubi and the Sanbi no Kitsune respectively. Both are hated and scorned by the village of Konoha; yet know nothing of each other's plight. When they meet and see each other's pain they make a pact. Together, they would prove to the village that they were a force to be reckoned with and that they would have the village acknowledge them.
Well then, it's time for another Naruto story I want to throw into the mix. This one for sure, I plan to be making a full time story. ITJO, It Takes Just One; I am still contemplating whether I should, because I can not see very far into the story, unless I can create situations, so expect slow updates for that one.
This story on the other hand will probably receive regular updates, so watch out for this one. Let's rock on and see how this turns out.
Night in the Konohagakure no Sato1i was time meant to be spent in comfort. It was a chance for families to get together, and share their stories of the day, as they settle down from the days work, or sit down to eat. Night time is meant to be quiet, peaceful, and enjoyable. Many people prefer the comfort of the night. It provided solitude for most people, while for others it gave them a chance to throw parties, late into the night as people cheered, danced, and spent time with people. Night was a time to possibly have a date with someone of the opposite gender, or spend time with a loved one. All these and more are supposed to happen in the peacefulness of night time. However, tonight was not such a time.
Tonight, two mighty beings assaulted the quiet village of Konoha. Two almighty foxes, the Kyuubi no Kitsune2ii, and the Sanbi no Kitsune3iii, let out earth shattering roars as they rampaged through the forests surrounding the village. The Kyuubi had crimson fur that burned of a fiery anger matched only by those who could control fire, and piercing yellow eyes, that would freeze the hearts of even the sturdiest of men. Its nine tails waved freely as it struck anything and everything in sight. Its partner in crime, the Sanbi had blue fur that shone brightly as the moonlight they fought under. Unlike its counterpart, its coat gleamed in the night, as it gracefully weaved in and out of attacks directed towards it. Thinner and more agile than the Kyuubi, the Sanbi preformed a series of acrobatic movements, under normal circumstances, would dazzle men and women alike.
As both monstrous creatures raged about, destroying everything in sight, the people of Konoha deployed their greatest fighting force they could muster. At their disposal were the powers and skills of the shinobi, known for their ability to perform intricate means of assassination. As they charged forward, both beasts raised their tails as they slammed the ground, creating powerful quakes that shook the heavens themselves. Shinobi jumped left, right, and center as they charged forward, with the intent to take on, and take down the mighty creatures that dared to destroy their home.
As the battle raged on deep into the night, many lost their lives. Many fought valiantly until their last breathes. Many met quick deaths, such as being impaled through the heart, had their heads lopped off, or other such powerful means. Some however failed to benefit from such fortunes and found themselves in painful positions as they died from slow agonising deaths. Many continued to fight in hopes to somehow injuring the creatures. Many attempted their strongest jutsus only to have them disregarded.
All continued to fight, as they prayed for the leader of the village to come soon. The almighty leader of the village, known as the Hokage4iv, was considered the strongest shinobi of their village. They and only they, had access to a wide variety of jutsus unheard of by the normal shinobi. However with such power come powerful responsibilities. The role of Hokage is that one must be willing to put the village above his own self. Those who fail to do such for his subordinates are not worth of being a leader.
The battle soon came to a halt, as in a powerful explosion, a mighty frog appeared, its height rivalling that of the two fox demons. The three creatures stared at one another as they attempted to gage one another, to see what the opponent would bring to the battle. Atop the frog, perched between his eyes, stood a man, which many soon recognized as the mighty Yondaime5v Hokage. In his hands, he held two newborns, bundled up as he stared down the two creatures.
Yondaime sighed sadly as he looked down upon the children in his hands. He had come up with a sure fire way to defeat the demonic monsters, but it required some sacrifices. The two babies in his hands were part of the sacrifice. He just hoped that what he did was right and that people would see the good from what he was about to do.
"I'm so sorry for having to do this to you two," he muttered as he stared down at the two. In his arms, the babies slept peacefully, unaware of the battle they were in. He couldn't help but stare in awe at the sight of the two. So young and so innocent, wrapped up in white cloth, protecting them from the darkness before them. He knew that these children would do well, but their fate rested in the minds of the village. He just prayed that he did the right thing.
"Naruto, Hinata, I can only pray, that you will be recognized as the hero you two truly are. Please be safe, and take care of each another." He kissed the two on their foreheads before he laid them down, behind him. Turning around facing the two, he stood shoulder width appear as he bent his knees.
"Snake, Boar, Ram, Hare, Dog, Rat, Bird, Horse, Snake," he muttered before he clapped his hands together and yelled out, Fuuinjutsu, Hakke no Fuuin Shiki6vi!" In that instant, both demons leapt forward as a bright flash of light lanced out from the man's abdomen. As it neared the demons the lance of light split off into two as it impaled the demons. Both monsters let out painful roars as their bodies disintegrated leaving only their souls, one an orb of red the other a sphere of blue, bound to the light. The two orbs shot back towards the man as he redirected the red into one child, the other to the remaining child. Yondaime collapsed upon his knees as he looked back towards the smiled and smiled.
"Take care," were his final words before the blissfulness of death came to him.
"Good bye, Yondaime Hokage," a deep voice rumbled through before he was finally gone.
