Naruto awoke to find he was not lying on the cold hard ground but in a warm bed he sat up feeling his movement was slightly restricted he looked at his stomach to see bandages wrapped around his lower torso.
'Where am I' he thought as he looked around the room it was pretty plane it had white walls with a small window to his right that was allowing the sun to shine threw the floors were covered in a gray carpet.
The bed he was laying in was draped in white sheets and a white cover a white pillow was behind him. To his right he saw his cloths cleaned and folded neatly in a chair beside him. He jumped out of bed and pulled them on as he bent down to pull on his sandals he felt a little resistance he looked to see that he had forgotten to take the bandages off.
He took his shirt off and undid the bandage revealing a scar less belly he carefully rewrapped the bandages and placed them on the chair.
He opened the window the make a quite get away when the door opened
"You know with the injury you received it probably isn't a good idea to move around to much" said Hiashi.
Naruto turned to face the head Hyuga his eyes stared angrily at the man who had just saved his life.
"What do you care its not like I'm anything important to you" said Naruto
"No, but someone important to me thinks you are" said Hiashi.
As Naruto made to leave he stopped in his tracks
"You lie nobody thinks I'm important now if you don't mind I've got training to do" and with that Naruto jumped out of the window.
"Could you at least comeback for breakfast" asked Hiashi
Naruto turned to Hiashi then gave him a curt nod he then took off towards the forest that was well beyond the Hyuga Complex.
Hiashi then took after him determined to find out what Hinata sees in the boy he followed Naruto to a small clearing there he watched as Naruto warmed up with a few.
Stretches after he warmed up he then put his hands into his pocket and pulled out a few kunai then he threw them into the air one at a time each hitting the other causing them to. Stay up then they all few in different directions hitting a tree in a perfect straight line then he walked over an pulled out each kunai Hiashi turned his attention to the right of Naruto to see a man with gray hair walk towards him he was about in his twenties.
"Hey Naruto" said Mizuke sensei
Naruto stopped his training and looked up at him
"What do you want?" he glared
"I was just wondering if you still wanted to make Genine" asked the crafty Chunine
"What's the point if I make Genine that just means that people will want to attack me even more then they do now" said Naruto.
"Not if you learn the Jutsu a certain scroll they won't" said Mizuke
Naruto turned to his sensei
"I'm listening" said Naruto Mizuke walked closer to Naruto then whispered something in his ear that Hiashi couldn't hear.
After he finished Naruto for the first time in a year grinned
"You've got a deal now let me get back to my training" said Naruto scowling.
Mizuke nodded then left him to it
Naruto then turned to the tree he then did a series of hand signs then opened his mouth and blew a wave of fire at the tree turning it to ashes within seconds.
'Incredible the boy's chakra is high enough for him to use that level of Jutsu' thought Hiashi.
Then Naruto turned to another tree he performed some hand signs then shouted
"Clone Jutsu" three exact copies of Naruto appeared out of thin air
'But if he can use that why didn't, he when he took the exams?' thought Hiashi then it came to him.
"What's the point if I make Genine that just means that people will want to attack me even more then they do now"
Hiashi sighed what had been done to this boy to make him the way he is from what Hinata told him Naruto used to be full of energy always smiling at every little thing.
"Then one day he came to class and his smile was gone he was no longer the happy Naruto we all knew it was as if his heart had turned to stone" said Hinata
Hiashi jumped down from the tree he was hiding in
"Hey Naruto got a minute" he asked
Naruto turned to him
"I was wondering how long you were going to stay up there" he said looking at Hiashi
"I was wondering if you could tell me what made you the person you are" asked Hiashi.
Taking a seat in the cool grass Naruto eyed him suspiciously
"What makes you think I'm any different from when I was younger?" asked Naruto.
"Hinata told me you used to smile and laugh with everyone else then in one day you changed" said Hiashi.
"Well she's wrong I just took off my mask" said Naruto walking out of the woods Hiashi followed knowing the discussion was over for now.
Naruto walked to his apartment when Hiashi stopped him
"I thought you said you were having breakfast with us" he said to Naruto.
Naruto sighed then walked back to the Hyuga Complex with Hiashi they walked inside Hiashi led him to the dining hall.
Were a giant table was piled with many different foods two girls and a boy were already sitting at the table waiting for Hiashi.
"Father we were worried you'd been in a fight" said the littlest
"No, I'm fine Hanabi" said Hiashi taking his seat at the head of the table.
Naruto stood at the door way
"Oh yes we'll be having a guest dining with us today" said Hiashi motioning for Naruto to come in. He looked at his oldest daughter to watch her face instantly turn a magnificent red as Naruto took a seat in front of her.
"Thank you Lord Hiashi" said Naruto bowing respectfully before taking his seat
"Not at all my boy now eat your fill" said Hiashi merrily
Naruto nodded again and grabbed a bowl and filled it with a small portion of rice.
"May I ask you your name" said the boy beside Hanabi
"I'm Naruto Uzumaki" said Naruto.
The boy then glared angrily at Naruto as if he were some sort of diseased vermin.
Naruto saw this and lowered his gaze to the bowl of rice in his hand he grabbed a set of chopsticks then began to eat.
Once he had finished the rice he replaced the bowl then looked at Hiashi
"Thank you for the breakfast Lord Hiashi now I must be going" said Naruto.
"You can't possibly be full from such a small portion of rice" said Hiashi
"No, that was plenty" said Naruto standing up suddenly his stomach chose to act on its own and left out a mighty growl.
Naruto's face instantly turned the same red as Hinata's maybe even a shade darker if it was possible.
"Well your stomach says otherwise" said Hiashi with a mischievous grin
Naruto sighed and sat down then grabbed his bowl and had another portion of rice as he made to put the spoon back into the pot that held the rice.
After he finished his second bowl he replaced it then set his chopsticks on top of it then he bowed his head in respect for the chef.
"Now I really must be going" said Naruto standing up for the second time
Hiashi smiled again
"Very well Naruto" he said as Naruto got up to leave Hiashi noticed Hinata's eyes following him out the door.
"Hinata why don't you skip our midday training and have some fun" said Hiashi
Hinata's eyes darted from where Naruto had been to her father
"Oh no, I couldn't do that" said Hinata
"I insist" said Hiashi
Hinata nodded knowing that once her stubborn father made up his mind there was no changing it.
She got up and took off after Naruto
"Oh, Hinata if you see Naruto why not ask him why he's so miserable" asked Hiashi.
Hinata's face turned a violent shade of crimson
"Y…yes s...s…sir" said Hinata then she took off after the boy that she'd had a crush on since the day he saved her.
Flashback
Hinata is playing on a small swing set when a boy that was wearing a white shirt with a red leaf symbol on it. His untidy blond hair appeared to be spiked walked over to her
"My name's Naruto Uzumaki what's yours" asked the younger Naruto.
"Hinata Hyuga" said the younger Hinata she was wearing a simple pink dress with a blue floral pattern.
"How come you're playing by yourself he asked looking around
Hinata looked at the boy and blushed
"Nobody seams to like me" said Hinata.
"Well I'll play with yah if you don't mind" said Naruto nervously
"Oh yes I would like that very much" said Hinata happily.
Naruto smiled then he walked behind Hinata and began to push her
"How's this Hinata" he asked as she rose steadily higher.
"This is great" she said as a woman that looked like an older version of her walked towards them.
"Well, well what do we have her Hinata" asked the woman
"He's my friend" said Hinata causing Naruto to grin brightly
"Oh you're friend huh and may I ask your name good sir" said the woman.
"I'm Naruto Uzumaki the next Hokage who are you?" asked Naruto
"I'm Lady Hiyoma Hyuga Hinata's mother" said Hiyoma.
"Nice to meet you" said Naruto holding out his hand to shake Hiyoma's but not watching where he was causing Hinata to hit him on her backswing. Sending him tumbling forwards
"Oh, my Naruto are you alright" asked Hinata jumping off the swing.
Naruto jumped to his feet
"Yeah I'm fine" he said with another grin he hadn't noticed that he had sliced his right arm until he felt blood run down his hand.
He looked down then wiped the blood away
"Oh you poor dear you're hurt" said Hiyoma reaching for his arm
"Nah I've had worse" said Naruto
"You alright Hinata?" he added.
"Yes, I'm fine Naruto" said Hinata
Naruto was pushed on his butt as Hinata's mother began to tend his wound.
"Lady Hyuga I'm fine" he said as she fussed over his arm there was a sudden rustle in the bushes behind them.
Then three ninja's jumped out from behind them one grabbed Hinata the other her mother the third threw Naruto aside.
Naruto got to his feet the three laughed as he got into a fighting stance
"Awe how cute the little guy wants to fight said the one that threw him aside. He started walking towards the Hokage wannabe
"So kid you want to play" said the ninja as he started to do some hand signs.
Then a wave of water knocked Naruto off his feet sending him flying he slowly made his way back to his feet.
"I'm only going to tell you this once let them go" he said boldly
"Oh look the brats getting angry" said the one holding Hinata he and his partner made similar movements and their captive's were out cold.
Naruto watched as both of them hit the ground hard his fists balled as anger welled up inside him.
"I'm going to kill you" he said as he looked at the men who were laughing hysterically Naruto left out an earth shattering roar and attacked them.
The men laughed and left him run right by them he turned and faced them then he threw a kunai that he had hidden in his pants pocket and threw it at one of the ninja.
Hitting him in the arm the ninja tool bounced off like it was made of plastic
"That little brat tried to hit me" said one of the ninja in astonishment.
"Lets make him suffer" said the one of the other's as they advanced towards him there was a soft moan as Hinata began to stir.
"Hey guys we only need one Hyuga right" asked one of the ninja
"Yeah why" asked another
"Then lets kill the little one and take the mother" said the other.
The three ninjas nodded in agreement and advanced towards Hinata Naruto watched as they took the kunai he had thrown and plunged it into her shoulder.
The anger that had welled up inside him exploded as a burst of red chakra enveloped his entire being. His once blue eyes were now scarlet red with vertical slits for pupils the three ninja looked at him not with amusement but with terror and fear as the chakra emanating from him scorched the grass with every step he took.
The whisker marks on his face that were once thin and scar like were now thick and black like real whiskers. His fingernails had lengthened into claws he then ran at the ninja and disappeared without a trace then reappeared in with blood covering his body as it sprayed from the neck of the ninja that had knocked Hinata's mother out.
He then ran and disappeared again this time taking out the one that had injured Hinata his claws were drenched in blood.
It dripped in thick globes from this fingertips he looked at the last of the ninja his mask covered face showed fear. As he watched Naruto run towards him then thrust his claws into his chest piercing threw his heart.
Naruto then pulled back his arm to reveal the still beating heart then he crushed it causing the blood to fly all over his face and body.
Once he was done the three ninja were dead there now rotting corpses leaked blood onto the grass Naruto looked to see that both Hinata and Lady Hiyoma were staring at him with fear. Naruto then fled from the area Hinata wasn't sure but she thought she heard him crying.
End Flashback
Naruto was making his way to the Hokage's office that was now empty due to the Third having a meeting today in another village. He smirked as he snuck silently into the most protected building in the village without being detected. He then found himself within the Hokage's office he was facing a large wooden desk that was on top of a hardwood floor.
The walls were covered with red paint like the outside walls he then walked over to a large filing cabinet and opened the bottom drawer opened it and pulled out a scroll that was as large as the inside of the drawer.
He then grabbed the scroll and jumped threw an open window then took off to the forest to the clearing where he trained.
He then pulled open the scroll to find the first Jutsu he could learn it was the
'Shadow Clone Jutsu allows the user to make solid copies of them self' thought Naruto.
He then read and reread the diagrams and hand signs until he had them memorized then he started to practice.
Hinata searched high and low for Naruto but didn't see hide or hair of her secret crush she sat on a bench near the forest. To catch her breath when she saw the person that she had been searching for, for most of the morning enter the forest.
She followed him silently until he stopped at a small clearing she had seen him train here often but didn't want to disturb him. She noticed something large was tied to his back he then pulled if off and out of view he sat there for several minutes. Then he stood up still staring at the object.
Then he did a single hand sign
"Shadow Clone Jutsu!" he shouted the area was filled with some once it cleared there were about ten Naruto's in the clearing Naruto then looked at the scroll again.
Then he turned to the clones and told them to do something that she couldn't hear they nodded then ran to the right of the group a good ways away.
Then one threw a kunai at the other causing it to disappear in a puff of smoke then the real Naruto shuddered from what she wasn't sure as the, other clones disappeared as well.
Then he turned back to the item he laid on the ground and began to stare at it again Hinata's curiosity got the better of her and she hopped closer as quietly as possible.
The Third Hokage entered his office after a peaceful negotiation with the Fourth Kazekage for this year's Chunine Exams.
He looked to see his filing cabinet was still open he looked inside to see that the scroll containing all of the villages Forbidden Jutsu.
"Call all Jounine and Chunine level ninja to the roof of my office at once" he told an Ambu that was acting as his body guard.
The masked ninja nodded then disappeared in a puff of smoke the Hokage made his way to the roof of the building.
He looked into the drawer to see a small picture hand drawn picture of Naruto was left behind he made his way up to the roof of the building.
Where he saw about fifty ninja's waiting for him
"Naruto Uzumaki has taken the Forbidden Jutsu scroll he must be found and the scroll returned" said the Third.
"Yes, sir" said the ninja's in unison then they dispersed into separate directions the third then walked back to his office he reached into the drawer of his desk and pulled out.
A small black pearl he then placed it onto the top of the desk he then focused his chakra into the orb it started to glow for a few seconds then Naruto came into view.
'I hope they find him in time' thought the Third.
Naruto lay on the ground panting heavily he felt proud of himself for mastering three Jutsu from the scroll already
He was about to look up the fourth something about self summoning when he heard a noise he turned to the area to see.
"Mizuki Sensei" said Naruto
"Very good Naruto how many Jutsu's did you learn?" asked Mizuki with a slight grin on his face.
"Sorry Mizuke Sensei I didn't learn more than one" said Naruto rolling up the scroll he was about to give it to Mizuki when someone else entered the area.
It was Iruka
"Good work Mizuki now Naruto give me the scroll so we can take it back to the Hokage" said Iruka.
Naruto looked suspiciously at both Mizuki and Iruka sensei then he started to back away
"Come on you little brat hand over that scroll" said Mizuki growing impatient
"What's going on what's so special about this scroll?" asked Naruto.
"That scroll contains a list of the village's Forbidden Jutsu the Third has sent every ninja in the village after you give it back now, and you won't be punished" said Iruka.
Naruto's emotionless face stared at Iruka then back to Mizuki
"Come on kid give me the scroll I'm the only one who ever tried to help you" said Mizuki.
"I'm sorry to say Mizuki Sensei I've never really trusted you nor have I trusted you Iruka Sensei" said Naruto.
He took another step back
"Hey Naruto want me to let you in on a little secret as to why the entire village hates you?" asked Mizuki
"Mizuki no!" said Iruka.
"Why then" asked Naruto annoyed
"The reason is because you really are a monster you're the container for the Nine-Tailed Fox the monster that destroyed the village resides inside you" said Mizuki laughing.
Naruto stared at him in shock
'That would explain everything why when I fight I go into a blood lust I always thought there was something weird about me, but I never' he thought as he took off into the woods.
"Naruto comeback!" shouted Iruka as Naruto took off
Hinata had fallen asleep against a tree watching Naruto from a distance until she'd heard a noise that woke her she looked to see.
Mizuki and Iruka standing in front of Naruto
"You're the container for the Nine-Tailed Fox the monster that destroyed the village resides in you" said Mizuki.
Hinata felt as if she had gone into shock as every part of her body went numb
'It can't be true Naruto's the Nine-Tailed Fox" she thought.
She felt herself unwillingly chasing after Naruto all she knew was that she had to catch him to talk to him why she didn't know.
She ran threw the grove that Mizuki and Iruka had just left moments before then followed Naruto's trial.
"Byakugan" she said as the veins in her temples popped out her pupiless eyes seamed to focus she could see things that the normal eye couldn't pick up.
She soon saw Naruto's chakra signature ahead of her she was soon in the same area what she saw put her to her knees.
Naruto was sitting against a tree crying the scroll was now draped over his back by a single piece of rope. Hinata slowly approached him
"N…Naruto" she stuttered timidly
"…"
"Naruto?" she said again
"Stay back Hinata I don't know what I am" he said at last.
"W…what a…are .y…y…you t…t…talking about" she said
"You heard them I know you were there" said Naruto
Hinata stood there unknowing what to say she started to point her index fingers together.
The trees around them began to rustle the sound of a buzz-saw could be heard then a giant shuriken flew through the air. Naruto didn't even think he just jumped in front of Hinata taking the attack in the chest just missing his heart but it pierced his right lung.
Naruto's lung filled with blood he started to cough violently as the blood gushed out of his mouth and wound.
Naruto coughed again as his blood began to pool up on the ground
"N…Nar…Naruto w…w…why…" asked Hinata.
"I…don't…know I just did" said Naruto pulling the shuriken from his chest
"Well, well, looks like I get to be the big hero of the village, or I would be if I wasn't going to the Village Hidden in the Rain" said Mizuki coming from behind a tree.
"Mizuki Sensei what are you talking about?" said Hinata
"I told Naruto to grab that scroll so that I could bring it to the Hidden Rain as a show of good faith I would have taken Naruto with me, but he had to grow a conscience, ah well that just means that I can rid the world of the Nine-Tailed monster once and for all" said Mizuke pulling out another giant shuriken.
He threw it at Naruto again this time it was blocked by Iruka
"Naruto, Hinata leave quickly get to the Hokage" said Iruka holding the giant shuriken in his hand.
Mizuki started to laugh then he started to glow a strange purple color then he started to change his body grew to the size of a pro-bodybuilder.
Hair started to sprout from his now exposed upper body the transformation finished with him looking like a muscled version of Tony the Tiger (A/N. I don't own him either).
"Thanks to a friend of mine I'll be the most powerful ninja in the Village Hidden in the Rain" said Mizuki.
He then ran at Naruto but was blocked by Iruka who was thrown backwards by Mizuki's superior strength.
Naruto watched the events unfold before him with little remorse for his sensei as he got thrown around like a rag doll.
"Naruto, Hinata get out of here!" shouted Iruka
Hinata looked at Naruto who seamed to relish the fight that was going on between the two Chunine.
"Naruto come on we've got to go" said Hinata pulling on Naruto's arm he looked at her with a bit of a start.
"Oh Hinata I'd forgotten you were here" he said then he and Hinata took off threw the trees then a blood curdling scream pierced the air.
"Oh no Iruka sensei" said Hinata
"Finally someone got what he deserved" said Naruto coldly
Hinata stopped in her tracks
"How can you say that" she said.
"Simple he got what he deserved" said Naruto again
"What's happened to you" asked Hinata
"What ever could you mean?" asked Naruto with an innocent look.
"You never acted like this before what happened to change you?" asked Hinata
"You want to know what made me what I am its people who made me what I am" said Naruto.
"I don't understand" said Hinata
Naruto sighed
"When I had failed the Genine Exam the first time around I was cornered by some older Genine they started to attack me. I did my best to fight them off but an eight year old ain't gonna do much good against three 14 year olds. I ran as fast as I could until I ran into an Ambu I thought that I was safe then until the boys came I turned and the Ambu was nowhere to be found. I took a fighting stance then I blacked out when I came to I was standing over the bodies of the three Genine. I had enjoyed what ever it was that I had done and I wanted to do it again. Until I realized where I was then I ran off vowing from that day to never trust anyone again and to take care of my own problems" said Naruto.
"Naruto" said Hinata
A rusting sound was heard then Mizuki appeared he was holding the limp body of Iruka he then threw it aside like a dirty rag. Iruka left out a small gasp as he hit the dirt
"This is perfect I can say that I saw the Kyuubi brat attack Iruka and I had no choice but to kill him. You there you will be my witness unless you want to end up as the Kyuubi's next victim" said Mizuki.
'Hey uh I guess your Kyuubi right, listen I need your power' thought Naruto an dark laughter could be heard echoing threw his mind.
"I've been waiting for you to ask for it now I will grant you as much as you wish seeing only because we are joined and I do not wish for death" said a dark voice in his head.
'Thank you' thought Naruto
The whole wile he was doing this his eyes were closed
"Looks like the fox brat is getting in a last prayer, alright monster time to die!" shouted Mizuki.
Naruto smirked then opened his eyes they were no longer dark blue but scarlet red the scar like whiskers had thickened and become more defined. His fingernails had lengthened considerably into claws.
"You know Mizuki I've known about the power within me since I was about six but I was always afraid I'd die if I used it too much, but now I know. That this power will not kill me I don't have to hold it back" said Naruto with a maniacal grin on his face.
He then started to laugh hysterically as red chakra engulfed his body
"You wanted to fight a demon didn't well here's all, the demon you can handle" he said again as the chakra took the form of a One-Tailed fox.
Naruto then ran at his former sensei then did a barrage of kicks and punches giving him no room to attack. Naruto then pulled a kunai out of his holster and drove it into Mizuki's chest then he dragged it across causing blood to spay him like a sprinkler. Naruto relished his blood bath then jumped back from Mizuki allowing him a few seconds to recover from the wound then. Naruto ran at him again laughing like a maniac as he started to slice Mizuki with his claws his ninja tools lay to the side disregarded.
Then he laughed as he felt the blood cover his entire body with one final slash Naruto ripped off a piece of Mizuki's arm the tiger haired skin shriveled into ashes. In Naruto's chakra coved palm Mizuki was now on his knees gasping for air. His body was now drenched in his own blood.
"This is impossible I should be the one who's winning" said Mizuki
"I think its time to end this" said Naruto he then preformed a T like hand sign then shouted
"Shadow Clone Jutsu" the area was then filled with hundreds of Naruto's each one had a fox shroud over them.
Mizuki's face had become filled with fear as he stared at the many Naruto's
"Time to DIE!" they all shouted as they came at him. Within seconds all that was left of Mizuki was a bloody pile of flesh the all of the Naruto's disappeared leaving only the original.
Naruto felt incredible he had the power to kill everyone in the village who had ever wronged him.
'I will have my vengeance' he thought a grunt brought him out of his thoughts as he turned to see Iruka get to his feet with the help of Hinata.
He smirked as he turned to face the two his blood soaked claws itching for another victim as he drew closer to his targets.
