A/N: Hey everyone! I'm sorry for the cliff. I really wasn't meaning to leave you like that. To answer some reviews, Naruto is at this moment four years old. He was kidnapped a couple of days after his third birthday. Now lets get to Chapter 2.
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto!

Chapter 2
The guards of the Kazeyin compound had been watching a gray-haired jounin walk by when they heard a scream from inside the compound. They watched as the jounin stopped looked at the compound and a look of worry crossed his face. Then he disappeared in a swirl of leaves.
The guards did a double take. They then looked at each other before waving it off. He probably just had a meeting to get to or something. No way that look had anything to do with that scream.

Deep in the compound just a couple corridors away from where the scream came, a gray-haired jounin appeared in a swirl of leaves. He slowly crept towards the source of the screams. With each step they grew louder and more full of pain. Kakashi could barely keep himself from running to the cell that they were coming from.
Before he knew, he was in front of the cell door. He could hear the distinct sound of kunai tearing through flesh and bone. He quietly opened the door. He without even making a sound crept in. The smell from the room almost made him vomit. Kakashi could tell that some unfortunate soul had lived in this room for a year and never left. Kakashi fought down the vomit and looked around.
The sight he found tore at his heart. There lying on the ground with two obvious broken legs was a young bloody lump of a boy. The boy had two kunai sticking out of his shoulders and another two kunai stuck in his arms right below his elbows. There was also a kunai sticking out of the right side of his stomach. The boy was crying and kept mumbling, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" There was also a man standing over the boy with one kunai in his hand. He was going down for the kill. Kakashi moved.
The blood from the man's neck drenched Kakashi's glove. The man fell on top of the boy and the sound of kunai meeting flesh and a muffled cry was the only sound. Kakashi quickly moved the man. The last kunai had struck the boy's chest. Luckily it was his right side though.
Kakashi bent over and examined the boy closer. The boy was still mumbling the same thing, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Kakashi gently picked up the boy being careful to not hurt him anymore.
"Shh. Naruto its okay. Your safe now," Kakashi tried to calm the boy, but the boy wouldn't be calmed. Kakashi realized this and quickly left for the hospital.
