Naruto Unleashed
(Undisclosed Location)
The sun had settled by now leaving only pure darkness around the silent village. An uncomforting groan could be heard in the pitch black room. Naruto slowly pried his drowsy eyes revealing a hazy scene of the current predicament he was in. His eyes quickly adjusted to the darkness showing him exactly what was happening around him. His curious eyes roamed the empty room from corner to corner trying to figure out where exactly he was at. The last thing he recalled was being found out by the angry villagers. His eyes widened in realization once the memories of being knocked out came to him in waves. "That's right that homeless looking guy hit me on my head and knocked me out". His teeth clenched showing his canine like teeth. "Those bastards just you wait until I get my hands on you. I'll show you what I'm really made of". His frustration quickly diminished hearing a sudden laughter coming from the darkest corner of the room.
The same rugged looking man came walking out of the shadows revealing to him his amused smirk on his unshaved face. He mockingly began to clap in a slow rhythm seemingly impressed that the little runt had the balls to talk back to him like that. "Apparently you do have some fight in you boy. Too bad you only show it when the insulty isn't around to hear you and pound your ugly face in isn't that right boy".
Naruto barely had any chance to prepare himself before a swift punch popped him in the mouth breaking some teeth from the force of the blow. Blood freely began to flow from his mouth where his front teeth had just been knocked out.
Takeshi looked on in wonder as he witnessed the boy's lost teeth begin to regrow before his very eyes. "So you really are the Kyuubi's Jinchuuriki. This day couldn't get any better now could it? Oh wait it can". He chuckled evilly at the thought of finally being able to achieve his lifelong goal of killing the very existent that ruined his life many years ago.
Naruto's teeth had regrown already leaving only the drying blood on his lip and floor. He heard what the man had called him and it left him confused. "W-what do you mean I'm the Kyuubi!? You're just a liar like all the rest!
Another swift punch landed on his face this time between his eyes. "Clearly you're too naïve to piece the simple puzzle together by yourself boy. Think about it for a second will you. Tell me now why do you think people constantly call you monster this and demon that? He gave another swift punch to the stomach leaving him breathless. "I'll be kind enough to tell you what you needed to be told all along. That fucking Kyuubi is inside you right at this very moment you pathetic piece of trash! *Pop* another right hook caught him in the stomach once again leaving him sucking for air.
Naruto stared at the ground with wide eyes shocked at the news. 'It can't be true can it? I-its g-ggotta be a lie! It has too! He couldn't dwell on it for too long before he was suddenly grabbed by the hairline and roughly lifted up. He desperately struggled to break his grip, but it was simply no use. He had no use of his hands since being hanged to the ceiling leaving him with only his feet available to him.
Takeshi smirked marveling at the squirming boy in his grip. He motioned for the others to make themselves known. "Anyone that has any kind of hatred for this monster please step up. Now is your moment of glory to take retribution with your own hands. However, I will only give you five minutes max for each one of you to deliver whatever pent up feeling you still have". He raised a single finger and looked at every civilian dead seriously. "I have only one rule. You are not to kill him. That is my right alone understood".
Hearing the commotion ahead of him he weakly raised his beaten face up and saw dozens of figures pour out of the shadows. Every single one of them had evil written all over their face. For the next five minutes a slew of curses and punches and kicks rained over his small body bruising his skin completely. He was barely conscious by the time they were finished. He was only kept conscious by the strong odor of alcohol that Takeshi had brought with him and wafted into his nose.
"Now now don't go sleeping on me just yet boy. You will have plenty of time for that in the afterlife I personally guarantee it". Takeshi snorted feeling satisfied with the way his little plan was going so far. He took out a four-inch blade from his person and waved it in front of the wavering boy hanged tightly ahead of him. The sight of the large knife immediately got his attention realizing that this could be the end of him for good this time.
Takeshi laid the flat end of the shining blade on the boy's cheek and laughed. "I guess this little toy did the trick in gaining your attention. Too bad for you it wasn't just for show". With that said he swiped the sharp blade directly across his eye eliciting a howl of pure torture. The pain of having his right eye cut straight through was too much to handle knocking him out on the spot.
Takeshi looked on in pure satisfaction seeing the trail of blood cascading down his body making a nice pool of blood on the ground. He noticed that the cut was beginning to heal, but he knew that the eye was much too sensitive to heal. Which was definitely a good thing in his book. "So the big bad monster can actually be injured who would've thought". Noticing he was still unconscious he plunged the large blade into his stomach quickly doing its intended job of waking him up.
"AHHHHH STOP IT PLEASE! Naruto howled never having felt so much pain in his entire existence. It was just too much to handle for his tiny frame. He could feel the warm blood flowing down his jumpsuit staining the bright orange suit dark red.
The rugged looking man smiled brightly at the sight. "I'm surprised you're still able to talk boy. Well not really since you have that monster inside of you that pretty much heals anything. You're one lucky kid aren't you!? He jammed the blade deep into his thigh eliciting another deep scream that echoed fiercely around the dark room. "Ahhh that sound is like music to my ears hahahaha". He swiped the blade again and again across his flesh staining his entire body in his own blood.
Naruto just hanged there as he received multiple cuts to his body. No matter how much he screamed in agony the pain did not subside one bit. There was no reprieve from this terrible experience and the only way out he could think of was to die. That way the night would finally end just like he had wanted from the very beginning. Kami wasn't that cruel was she?
Takeshi meanwhile was laughing psychotically seeing all the blood on the boy. It brought him genuine glee to see this monster get his just deserts after such a long time. He had tried many times before, but the little runt always managed to escape his clutches. This time it was different though. The security in the village was mostly centered on the festival which was still going on. This left him with the perfect and maybe only opportunity to finally do what he had wanted all along. 'This is all for you mother. Just wait I will make you proud'.
His smirk disappeared when he saw the numerous deep wounds begin to heal before his eyes. "Tch, you just don't know when to just die do you monster". He regained his cruel smile once again. "But I know how to kill you once and for all. Not even your freakish healing ability can save you from a direct attack to the HEART!
He was suddenly stopped by someone from the group behind. He turned his head slightly and addressed the man. "You dare to disrupt my revenge!?
The meek looking man had a tight grip on his arm feeling that he was going too far with this whole thing. "Takeshi I know what happened to your family, but you have to stop this. We agreed that we would only rough him up a bit. Not fucking murder him. Do you realize the repercussions that would cause?! It might release the Kyuubi inside of him for crying out loud! Do you want the same thing that happened to your family and countless others to happen again?
Takeshi faltered a bit after hearing the man's reasoning. He wasn't sure what might happen when the boy died. However that slight falter in his decision didn't last long. His eyes turned cold. "You should've kept your mouth shut like you were told old man". He quickly plunged the blade deep into his heart killing him on the spot without any struggle. He twisted it just to make sure the deed was done. He ripped the blade from his heart leaving the man without any support resulting in his dead body hitting the cold floor.
He turned his cold eyes towards the group ahead and pointed the blade at them. "Any of you care to stop me from killing this monster? I'm all ears". He smirked seeing them remain silent without question. He turned his attention back to the barely conscious boy ahead.
He flicked his blade cleaning it as he made his way towards the hanging boy. His smile ever so present, knowing this would finally be the end of the road. He stood face to face with the Jinchuuriki as he positioned the glinting blade directly above his beating heart. "I guess this is goodbye runt. If I can say one thing it would be I'm impressed you've lasted this long honestly. But it is time to say goodbye". His plan was to thrust the blade deep into his heart and end it once and for all, but that didn't go according to plan. The reason was simple Naruto managed to somehow stop the blade without even touching it.
Takeshi began sweating confused as to why the blade was not budging from the spot. He then noticed the ominous looking shroud begin to envelop the boy. That was the reason his blade was denied access. 'Shit this isn't good! I don't stand a chance if the Kyuubi takes over. I've got to get the hell out of here! The knife quickly fell from his grasp as he desperately made his way towards the only door in the compound. While he ran for his life he heard the snapping of the chain and was suddenly blasted in the face by the boy sending him crashing into the thick wall.
Takeshi let out a groan of pain as he fell hard onto the concrete floor. To his horror he was met with the demon enhanced Naruto. The most frightening thing was his slited eyes courtesy of the Kyuubi's influence. His injuries were now non-existent except for his right eye which was destroyed with no hope of recovering. He threw a punch in desperation which was deftly caught by the boy's own hand. He was beginning to understand that he could actually die here. "I-I'm ss-sorry boy I was just having fun alright. This whole thing was just to toughen you up. L-look at you now yy-you're stronger now because of it right".
Naruto's single slited eye continued to bore into the very existence of the man in front of him. Slowly, but surely his grip on Takeshi's arm began to tighten and tighten until a loud crunching sound echoed throughout the empty room making the villagers witnessing the scene cringe.
"AAHHH! Let go of my fucking arm already! You're going to break it even further so LET GO!
Naruto paid no mind to the man's request and continued to tighten his grip on his arm. As his grip tightened on his arm the bones inside began to grind into dust from the extreme pressure they were in. His single slited eye continued to watch the man wither in pain. "How does it feel when YOU'RE THE one experiencing this kind of pain? How does it feel to have NO control of your life? His voice was not his own anymore. It was more dark and sinister reflecting the Kyuubi's influence over him.
Takeshi continued to scream in agony feeling his bones grind into dust under the excruciating pressure. "FINE I fucking get it already just LET ME GO ALREADY! I'm sorry ok just let me go and I'll leave you alone for CHRIST SAKES!
Naruto continued to watch the writhing man with no emotion evident on his face. He finally let go of the man's crushed arm. But as soon as he released him from his iron grip he quickly grabbed him from his neck and began to squeeze. "This is what you deserve for all the pain you have caused me. YOU turned me into this monster so now you must pay the ultimate price. Your LIFE!
Takeshi's widened in realization that he was actually about to die by the very being that he was about to kill. "..lease…et..e..go! His grip was too strong on his windpipe to deliver any concrete words out in time. The next moment his throat was crushed instantly killing him on the spot.
With a blank expression on his face he released the deceased man from his grip letting it bounce onto the cold ground. The man's eyes still had the same shocked expression before his death. Stepping away from the body he slowly walked towards the light and looked at himself. The first thing that was obvious to him was the huge increase in power. His nails looked long and sharp almost feral looking. His body was also covered in an aura of blood-red around him. All in all he had to admit it felt damn good. His slited eyes quickly darted towards the huddled group far into the room. Thanks to his enhanced vision he could clearly see them despite the low lightning.
With each step he took towards the group they began to tremble even more. They knew that this was the end for them all.
Naruto's short frame stood over the frightened villagers. His expression remained blank while the Kyuubi's cloak continued to swirl around him. "So this is what you wanted all along isn't it. Always throwing me the vilest of gazes you could muster not even giving me a chance. You will now understand how it feels to be scorned your entire life for something that wasn't my fault! Just remember you brought this on your selves".
The next few moments only sounds of screams could be heard as the Kyuubified Naruto ripped the small group to shreds. He now stood in the very middle of the modest sized room. He gazed at the single light with his single slited eye. "So I have really become the monster that they feared and hated all this time. I guess there is nothing left for me now that I have killed so many. Sorry Hokage-jiji they forced my hand and unfortunately for them they couldn't stop me".
(Hokage Mansion)
The powerful Sarutobi Hiruzen was quietly having a smoke as he continued on the night's paper work. Heaving a large sigh he signed another generic document and put it on the completed pile. Which by this point it was just over 3 feet tall in length. "Paperwork it never seems to end does it? It just continues to come and come never seeming to be close to finishing. If I'd have known this would be about 90% of the job then I don't know if I would've taken it back then. *Sigh* too late now". Just as he was about to sign another document a loud explosion rattled the building cracking the windows in his office. He quickly got to his feet and as expected several Anbu appeared kneeling before him. "Quickly explain the situation that is happening before it gets out of control".
All of the Anbu gathered nodded in agreement, but only one explained the situation to their commander. "Hokage-sama it seems that something triggered Uzumaki-san's anger and is now releasing his rage in the forest near the village. We sense the Kyuubi's chakra so it is safe to assume that it has somehow broken free, but to what extent we are still not sure".
The powerful Hokage had a look of honest sadness mirroring his face after hearing what had happened to his grandson. He walked towards the shattered windows and looked across his entire village below. He saw the plume of dust in the air where the explosion had originated. "Quickly send any and all available personnel to secure Naruto-kun before he gets further beyond our help. Take the chakra sealing tags with you and neutralize the Kyuubi's chakra. I absolutely do not want to see that he was hurt in any way simply because of your hatred towards him. So if I see even one mere scratch on his body that was caused by any of you here then it's on your head. Am I making myself perfectly clear here?
The mysterious Anbu readily nodded. "Hai Hokage-sama we understand our mission and will not fail you". With that said they disappeared from his sight. After a couple silent moments another presence joined him in his office. "Kakashi-kun I assume you have heard about the current situation correct".
The man identified as Kakashi had a full Anbu uniform on except for the mask. Instead he had a simple dark blue cloth that hid the lower half of his mouth. His left eye was also strangely concealed in the form of his headband concealing it. "Hai Hokage-sama I have heard about Naruto-kun getting out of hand".
Sarutobi continued to watch the empty night sky with sadness. "Do you know what triggered this outburst? Last time I saw him he looked fine, but on second thought maybe he wasn't". He took a moment to think and continued. "Perhaps it was on his own free will that caused this, but that doesn't make any sense does it?
The silver-haired Anbu had a bored expression on his face. "I have an idea as to what caused this sort of reaction from the boy". Sarutobi's eyes locked onto the man's own and urged him on. "Do tell Kakashi-kun I'm all ears at this point". Kakashi nodded and continued. "While I was 'watching' Naruto-kun like you had instructed I witnessed the boy enter another's home uninvited. My assumption for this would be that he was hungry and wanted something fast and easy. I overheard him mumble that he had no money so perhaps that triggered his desperation".
The Hokage's eyes widened briefly, before regaining his usual stern expression. "I see. I guess he didn't want to come to me and tell me that he had run out of his monthly funds that I provide him. His only choice in his mind was to resort to stealing".
Kakashi nodded in agreement with the powerful man. "That is most likely the case, but unfortunately things only get worse". Kakashi saw that he had the man's complete attention so he continued. "He was caught by the owner of the house and let's just say she was not pleased in the slightest. She was so furious that she lashed out on the boy and hit him with a large metal frying pan. Moreover I overheard the woman call him a 'monster'. I believe that is what triggered his emotional outburst".
Sarutobi reached for his desk and grabbed his pipe filling it with tobacco. He nudged the man to continue as he prepared his pipe.
Kakashi stood straight and delivered the devastating news. "Naruto-kun snapped at that moment and repeatedly hit the woman over the head with the frying pan eventually killing her".
The old man's body tensed at the thought of his little Naruto actually killing someone so ruthlessly. It was simply so unlike him. Taking a hit from his pipe he spoke. "So that is what triggered his outburst correct".
Kakashi nodded negatively. "I'm afraid not Hokage-sama. When the rest of the family got there he got frightened and immediately bolted from the scene. After that I spotted him hiding in an old shack no doubt hiding from the mob that was looking for him. After that I don't know what happened to him".
Taking another hit from his tobacco filled pipe he sat down in his comfy chair and instructed. "Kakashi-kun you are to go immediately to the scene and retrieve the boy. I have already sent some Anbu to get him, but I trust you more that he will not come to harm understood".
The silver-haired Anbu nodded and suddenly disappeared from his sight leaving the Hokage to his troubling thoughts.
(Battle-ridden Forest)
Kakashi had arrived as quickly as possible, but it seemed like it was too late. Several Anbu were strewn about the field. Well not everyone, there was some Anbu left. He quickly made his way towards the others and spoke. "What happened here Anbu-san? The Anbu in questioned seemed startled by the sudden request, but he quickly regained his calm composure once he realized who it was.
The generic Anbu kneeled before him and reported. "Kakashi-senpai we managed to secure the Kyuubi container". His eyes roamed the battlefield seeing the bodies of his fellow squad populated in a pool of blood. "Since we were given restrictions to not kill the boy it was much harder to contain him like we had originally thought. However, we were finally able to corner him and slapped him with chakra sealing tags successfully disabling his Jinchuuriki powers".
Kakashi nodded as his eyes landed on the boy's figure. 'This boy single-handily brought down several Anbu class shinobi. Granted they were under strict obligation not to harm him, but it still shows how dangerous he could wind up if left unchecked'. He shunshined near Naruto and saw first-hand how bad it was. The first and most apparent thing he witnessed was the large gash across his right eye. It brought terrible flashbacks on his past seeing this scene. He calmly stood up and appeared next to the Anbu forcefully grabbing him by his vest. With a dead serious expression he asked. "Do explain why the boy has a large gash across his eye. For your sake you better have a good reason or you will deeply regret it".
The Anbu quickly explained himself not wanting the wrath of the man who was spoken highly of around the continents. "P-please don't misunderstand Kakashi-senpai. When we arrived he already had that injury on him. When we found him he was inside a large underground bunker. A slew of corpses were there. We concluded they had kidnapped the boy and tortured him".
Kakashi slowly released the man's vest and hung his head in shame. 'Poor kid always on the receiving end of all this unnecessary hate. I'm sorry Minato-sensei'. He walked towards the boy and lifted him unconscious body effortlessly onto his shoulder. "Investigate the place further and for the sake of your job do not let any wandering eyes into this place understood". Not waiting for an answer he vanished leaving him alone to take care of the situation.

(Undisclosed Location)
The only light that came from the pitch black room was the small candle that was placed on top of a small table. The silhouette of a man could be seen as he appeared to be sitting. Suddenly another presence appeared next to the silent man. "Danzo-sama we have received news that the Kyuubi Jinchuuriki is now in the hospital being treated for severe injuries. It appears the council is not happy with this situation and wants to remove the threat once and for all".
The silent man sitting on the futon remained stoic. Slowly he stood up with the help of his cane and turned his eyes to the kneeled man before him. "Fu explain to me the severities of his injuries. I must know the extent to prepare for the coming days when he joins us".
The shadow now known as Fu simply continued. "Hai, the boy appeared to have suffered many injuries, but of course with the Kyuubi inside him those have healed almost instantly. …However the most severe injury to the boy would be the total loss of his right eye. It appears that whoever kidnapped him sliced it apart".
Danzo frowned and silently began to walk. "Fu inform Torune of the situation and tell him to prepare for our newest guest. Also inform Izumi to prepare the medical facilities and to gather all the medical equipment she will need to transplant an eye".
The shadow known as Fu merely nodded and disappeared into the darkness. This left the man known as Danzo to himself.
So many thoughts were running through the mysterious man's head. He knew immediately that the Council would not take the situation without some sort of punishment. As he had predicted they had resorted to simply killing the boy. In his mind that was a complete waste of potential. No he would not allow that to come to fruition. He would adopt the boy in some sorts and transform him into something he could be proud of. And Sarutobi couldn't stop him. Yes it was only a matter a time before his newest pupil would eventually outgrow them all he could feel it.
A/N: and scene. Well tell me how I handled the torture situation. Was it good? Bad? Tell me how I did. As you can tell Danzo will play a major part in the life of Naruto. He will be almost like a father figure to him and will teach him how to be strong. Naruto will indeed receive a sharingan just because I think they are simply to cool not to have. I mean wouldn't you want one they're freaking badass. Anyways please tell me what you thought of the chapter and tell me your theories on how this story will go. Reveiws are welcome and motivate me to put out another chapter Peace!
