I don't own Naruto in any way

Kyuubi talking

"Talking"

/

Kushina eyed her son waiting for him to start explaining what has happened since the day of his birth.

Yugao had left earlier in order to not have any suspicious thoughts being pointed toward them. She didn't want to have the Hokage stop trusting her. Before she left she told them that she would wouldn't speak of anything that happened over the course of the night.

Looking over at his mother he can see that she's waiting for him to start explaining. The only problem was trying to figure out where to begin. So much has happened while she was in the coma. Figuring it would be best to start from the beginning he looked at his mother and began to tell her lest she get angry at him.

"All right then kaa-chan let me tell about what has been dubbed as 'Project 11'." Stated Naruto with a calm almost emotionless voice. "But first let me tell you the truth about the destruction of Uzushiogakure."

"Okay Naruto but make sure to leave nothing out."

"Hai. After the beating on my 7th birthday everything changed when I met the Kyuubi."

Flashback 4 Years Ago

'Drip Drip'

Water? Where am I? Sitting up and looking around he saw nothing but darkness. Looking down one end of the hallway a faint red glow was barely noticeable. Deciding to trust his instincts he began to follow the red glow in hopes of getting some answers. Walking down the corridor he couldn't help but feel a sense of dread approaching. Walking into seemingly the biggest room in this pseudo sewer and seeing a giant iron gate with a seal on it he everything clicked into place. He uttered one word "Kyuubi." Naruto was by no means naïve and could possibly be considered a hidden genius only if he dropped his mask. So seeing the giant gate he knew there were bigger secrets and that the Hokage had been lying to him.

"Well what did I do to have the honor of my dear jailer to visit me?" A deep powerful voice growled out snapping Naruto from his thoughts.

Naruto smirked, "Do not think for one second that I want to spend any time here with you. All I want to know is what you want since I'm pretty sure that I can't appear here by normal means. Which leaves the question as to why you dragged me here?"

Kyuubi snarled at Naruto, "DO NOT TEST ME BRAT. YOU SHOULD BE HONORED TO BE IN MY PRESENCE. IF IT WERE UP TO ME I WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER OFF NEVER MEETING YOU." Snarled Kyuubi showing his anger. "There are bigger things here than me and you."

Naruto furrowed his eyebrows, "Bigger things what could possibly be bigger than you and me?"

"Your clan for starters. I'll be the first to tell you, everything the Hokage has told you is all a lie. They want nothing more than to keep a tight leash on you for their own selfish reasons."

What's he getting at. I know now that I've been lied to, but my clan what's so significant about them. All I know is that I'm the last one left. "My clan? What did they do that made Hokage make sure that I never find out about them?" Naruto questioned raising his eyebrow to show his confusion.

"Your clan did many things that many other people in the world couldn't hold a torch to their skill. They were so skilled that people began to fear them, of course a lot of this mistrust also came from the fact that they weren't aligned with any of the Great Villages." Looking down toward Naruto seeing the deep confusion lodged in his eyes.

For Naruto it was as if his whole world had come crumbling down. His clan destroyed but why? Deep down he knows that's why they kept lying to him, why they seemed to keep tabs on him despite being a jinchuriki. Also deep down he doesn't want this to be true but he knows that small glimmer of hope will be snuffed out just like the rest of his hope. Looking toward the Kyuubi to confirm his fears, "Konoha was the root of the problem weren't they? That's why they keep a close eye on me, to make sure I don't go into the deep end and try to avenge my clan."

"Unfortunately it's all true. Somehow Konoha made a peace treaty with Uzushiogakure and set up an arranged marriage between the First Hokage and the Clan Heads Daughter. Because of this Konoha gained all knowledge of how to bypass their security and seals. Even with the knowledge Konoha bided their time. When the time was right they unanimously sent a letter to the Raikage with the knowledge to the at the peak of the war several nations banded together to destroy them. With knowledge of the attack Uzushiogakure sent word to Konoha in hopes they would be able to help them."

Deep in thought, Naruto could understand why the other nations had to destroy them. What he couldn't fathom was what did Konoha gain from all this. Other than the destruction of a Clan he couldn't see any positive benefits for them. "Why? What did Konoha gain from doing this? I thought Konoha was all about allies and never turn your back on one another."

"They gained me, and they also had a hand in destroying one of the strongest nations without even lifting a finger. The other nations may not realize it but they've been doing Konoha's dirty work for years. They were also hoping to gain all sealing knowledge and the secrets behind their strong life force, chakra chain, and hopefully find any of their Justus."

"So let me get this straight I don't have a clan or a family all because Konoha is nothing more than scheming bastards trying to dominate the world." Naruto ground out through gritted teeth.

"Got it in one."

"Ok," thinking about he could only say that Konoha were nothing but devious bastards that would soon be brought back down a few pegs. "I do have to ask though, do you know who my parents were?"

Kyuubi sighed deeply knowing that this was one of the questions he was sure would come his way. "I do. Now normally I wouldn't give you knowledge of this or give you any help at all. Seeing that I've already told you this much I might as well tell you who your parents are. Your father as much as it loathes me to say it, was none other than the yellow flash or Yondaime Hokage or by his real name Minato Namikaze.

His own father did this to him. He was the one who condemned him to the biggest hell-hole on earth. Why? "What…. He did this to me… how could he?" Whispered Naruto. "And my mother did she approve of this. Did she want this life for me also?"

"Your mother… Her name is Kushina Uzumaki. Probably the best kunoichi to date to, as long as she wasn't near your father she was cold, ruthless, and showed no remorse for her enemies. The sad thing was whenever she came near your father it was like she turned into a fangirl who would do anything he said, and basically worshiped the ground he walked on. There is one thing though even though you got your fathers looks, you take after her and almost have her exact personality."

"A fangirl huh. Who knew? She doesn't seem like the type of person that would become a fangirl. You don't think there was foul play in order to make sure she didn't act out since she was from Uzu?"

"Honestly I don't know, she had me locked up so tight that no matter what we would never meet unless she decided to come talk to me which was very rare occasions."

Naruto sighed wistfully, at last he finally knew who his parents were. Even if one of them condemned him to hell. "I wish I could've met her." Naruto sighed wistfully.

"What if I told you she wasn't dead and was still alive?"

"WHAT SHE'S STILL ALIVE."

"Ow," Kyuubi said rubbing his ears to soothe the sudden pain, "Quiet down brat. Yes she's still alive and Konoha has been keeping her captive in order to make sure she doesn't come in contact with you."

Looking at him in disbelief he had to ask despite the heartbreak that might occur, "Do you kno-"

"Before you ask no I don't know where she currently is being held."

"Oh." Naruto sighed sadly knowing that his mother was still outa reach for now. Thinking silently for a while he glanced at the Kyuubi questionably as is he was trying to decipher a hidden message. "Wait a second, I never did ask but what's your name if you do have one."

Looking at him in slight surprise he couldn't help feel a sliver of happiness overcome him, not a big one mind you, he did still had to maintain his fearsome reputation. Kyuubi chuckled deeply, "You're the first one to ever ask me that question and even if you aren't very strong yet, I will grant you the honor of learning my name…." Looking down into his eyes he couldn't help but chuckle mentally at the sheer determination in his eyes. "My name is Kurama kit remember it well and never tell another human unless I deem them worthy."

"Hai Kurama I won't betray your trust. I do have to wonder why you are helping me so much. I figured we would be at each other's throats for a long time."

Chuckling slightly he looked down at Naruto and smirked at his confusion. "Because kit shits about to hit the fan and I rather be on good terms, since you're going to need all the help you can get."

Tilting his head in confusion at what he meant with that statement. "What do you mean? All the help I can get, who else is coming?"

"I think he means me Naruto-kun." Stated a calm but melodious voice.

Turning around Naruto couldn't help but widen his eyes in disbelief at the women in front of him. His jaw dropped at the sheer beauty the women displayed. Dressed in the most elegant kimono you could find, to her flawless pale white shin, her calm look across her face which somehow just enhanced her beauty, and finally her red but still elegant hair wound up in two buns atop her head. Naruto found himself frozen incapable of forming coherent words.

Giggling slightly at his face screwed up in amazement and curiosity at no doubt thinking about who she was. "Enjoying yourself their Naruto-kun don't you want to know who I am?" She said in a slightly teasing way.

Her voice finally snapped him out of his thoughts about her and finally his brain started to function properly again. "W-wh-who are you?"

Giggling at his slight stuttering she smiled at him. "Who am I my dear Naruto-kun, My name is Mito Uzumaki the first Jinchuriki of Kyuubi no Kitsune."
