It was a rather normal day for the people of Konoha. The academy had just gotten out and all the kids were happily greeting their parents, all but two that is one of them, by the name of Sasuke Unchiha had left already, the other was Naruto Uzumaki. He watched the parents pick up their kids from his position on the swing. His normally bright eyes had darkened somewhat as he watched this happy sight, knowing that he does not know the warm feeling of a parent's love. As the parents and kids started to disperse he got up and started walking out of the courtyard.

'Why am I all alone.' he thought as he made his way down the street, heading to his apartment. 'No one will tell me, not even the Old man.' Naruto let out a sigh as he remembered the old man's response when he asked. "Don't asked stupid questions, it doesn't bring the dead back to life." He did not know what to make of this, even now. The Old man always seemed to care about him, so why wouldn't he tell him about his parents aside from the fact they were died.

Naruto shook his head. 'No I won't let this get me down, I am sure I will find out, some day.' He thought as he neared his apartment. Upon entering his apartment he couldn't help but sigh again. Not because it apartment was small or messy, no he managed to keep it pretty clean in his opinion and it was a pretty nice size. No the issue was that its size just made him feel even lonelier.

When he had first gotten it he was happy, not just because he had a place to call his own, but because there was a lot of room to play. It might be easier to make friends if he had a place other they the orphanage, but it seemed he was wrong, kids avoided him or made fun of him. The few that didn't had been pulled away by their parents and he was never allowed to play with them again. The closest he had to friends were some of the other kids in the academy the four of them tended to play hooky together but even then he did not really know that much about them. Naruto walked over to the window and glanced down at the road. "I really wish I had a friend."

Meanwhile.

At the gate the eternal Chunin, Kotetsu Hagane and Izumo Kamizuk were watching as people came and went, they had started playing a card game due to how bored they were. Kotetsu was about to win when he glanced up towards the gate and noticed something odd. A little girl, with pale skin and long white hair, was skipping through the gate with no sign of a parent or guardian. Despite this she seemed perfectly fine. There was something else about the girl that felt off to him but he was not sure what. Kotetsu poked Izumo and gestured over to the girl. "Does she seem odd to you?" he asked he friend. Izumo looked over and after a few seconds he nods. "Ya, you'd think a girl that young would be a bit shy or scared traveling alone but she seems to be acting like its normal for her." He whispered back. Kotetsu was about to speak up when he heard the little girl sing.

"First there was one, then there were nine, then came along a tenth.

They frolicked and played for all of their days until that fateful day.

One day a man with the eyes took the Fox away. He forced him to fight the sage. The man with the eyes died that day and the fox was put in a cage. The sage hunted down the rest and sent them all away.

The Tanuki and the Fly were sent to the Sand and there they would remain.

The Cat and the Ox was forced up into the Cloud away from their usual prey.

The Turtle and the Slug were lost to the Mist unable find their way.

The Ape and the Horse were sealed in the Rock unable to escape.

The Fox was alone trapped in the Leaf left to only his rage, but what of the Tenth?

What of the Tenth?

What ever happened to her? She was left all alone with no one around, lost in the big wide world.

Then she decided to hunt the nine down to be family once again." The girl song as she started to make her was past the two.

Kotetsu and Izumo turned and looked at each other after she finished the song once. Izumo then turned back towards the girl. "Hey excuse me little one could you come over here?" He asked. The girl stopped her song and stood still before turning towards them and making her way over towards them. "What is it Mister?" she asked in a playful tone.

Kotetsu pushed a paper and pen towards her. "We need you to sign in." he said as he watched her carefully. The girl blinked and looked at the paper for a bit before nodding. She took the pen and wrote her name down before pushing it back towards him. "There you go, is that all Misters?" she asked tilting her head. Kotetsu shook his head. "One last thing, can you tell us why you're here?" he asked The girl smiled at him and nodded. "Sure I am looking for my Nii-sama!" she said with a big smile on her face.

Izumo and Kotetsu blink but nod. "OK thank you, you may go now." Izumo said. The girl smiled and continued skipping into town. Kotetsu took the paper and pen and blinked at the same she wrote. "Huh she only wrote her first name…Tsuki." He said and showed the paper to his partner. Izumo took a look and blinked as well. "I think we might want to report this, we might want to keep an eye on her." He said and Kotetsu nodded before taking the paper and disappearing in a shushin.

A bit away from them the girl smiled, having overheard their conversation. "You can try and stop me, but I will find Kurama Nii-sama." She said with a feral smile before heading deeper into the village.

Hope you like chapter two. Sorry if it seems to be a bit slow, the next chapter should be a bit interesting. I am trying to base some of the stuff off of the anime, In a filler arc The Third Hokage did tell Naruto to stop asking questions about his parents. Also while Naruto did Hang out with Kiba, Shikamaru and Choji in the academy there is no sign that they were true friends, more of fellow rule breakers.

I also hope to make the next chapter a bit longer then this one but no guarantees.
