Mythic Beings

Summary: What if there was more than the Kyuubi sealed with in Naruto. Open the book to magical beings of mythic legends.

Full Summary: At the same time that the Kyuubi was rampaging through Fire Country, thirteen beings are on trial for acts they have committed. When their counsel finds that their crimes are extremely heavy, Shinigami-Sama is charged with finding a place to seal them. A little while later the death god is summoned by the Yondaime to seal the Kyuubi into a baby. Taking this as his chance the Shinigami places his charges into the baby, however a seal that was meant to hold one can hardly hold fourteen properly. It is with the help of his questionable tenants that Naruto becomes a shinobi of legend, that he himself becomes one of these Mythic Beings!

Warning: Shounen Ai with the possibility of yaoi! Don't like, don't read! Possible bashing! Strong smart Naruto! OOCness! Cursing! OCs! Violence! Unedited! Lazy authoress! The plot bunny might hop away!

A/N: Hey I've decided to rewrite this fic because like with a lot of my other stories, if not all, I have changed writing style slightly and lost sight of my plot. So here it is the new Chapter 1 I hope you like it and please R&R! Anyways there is a slight crossover with a couple of different movies/shows/legends I wonder if you can figure out what ones.

Disclaimer: Sadly I own nothing except the OCs and maybe the plot… a big maybe on the plot.

Chapter 1; Whispering voices and Terror times

Nine years later

A young blond sat on a lone swing in the park, watching as the children laughed and played happily together and wishing that he could join them. But their proud parents were sitting close to where they played and he knew that as soon as he approached that those nice warm faces would morph into something hateful and cold.

'Why don't I have a family?' It was a familiar thought that often times plagued Naruto throughout the day and even sometimes into the night. 'I wish I had someone to love and care for me like they do.'

For as long as he could remember the blond had been alone; treated differently than the other orphans, hated by everyone in the village, except for a very select few people, and all for a reason that was unknown to him.

'I guess there are some benefits to being completely hated.' He thought as he got up and slunk away to his apartment, making use of the back alleyways and abandoned streets not wishing to provoke the villagers today.

They took every excuse they could think of to beat him, even if he did absolutely nothing, hunted him down like some type of animal and took pleasure in his pain. It was that behavior however that taught him one of the most important lesson of his life, how to survive. He knew how to successfully evade people, even with his brightly colored clothes; he was able to hide himself from anyone. If he did not want to be found then no one would ever find him no matter how long or hard they looked. He could also run and boy can he run, he could go fast while still evading stray swings of weapons and trees and he could run far. He can keep going fast enough that after awhile his pursuers just give up.

But it was always best not to irritate the villagers with his presence just in case he was caught unawares, so he made his way through the deserted pathways to his small little apartment.

Naruto froze as he heard a dark rumbling voice whisper to him, "Who cares what the villagers think. If they come after you, kill them all."

"W-what?" Naruto asked as he turned around looking for the owner of the voice.

"If they hurt you, hurt them back." The voice continued as if Naruto didn't say anything.

"W-where are you? C-come out here now!" Naruto said with panic and fear hinted in his voice. He turned every which way looking for any possible owners of the voice but finding none.

"If they insult you, make them pay."

"What do you mean? Who are you?" Naruto exclaimed as he pushed himself back against a wall. Still looking around for the possible owner of the voice, but finding none for he was alone in an empty back alley.

"If they scream for your blood, give them their own."

"You're crazy, leave me alone!" Naruto exclaimed tears forming in his eyes.

"Destroy all who oppose you. Reward those that accept you."

"Stop it!" he said covering his ears to try and block out the sound.

"Torture them! Make them bleed! Make their lives a living hell!" The voice cackled out.

Just as he was beginning to be swayed, a sharp pain erupted throughout his body.

"Shut the hell up you damn mutt!" a new deep whispering voice growled out.

"Please furball, like I would listen to you." The first voice replied back.

"Well then I'll force you to shut up!"

Pain blazed through his head, sharp and piercing, his head pulsing to the beat of his heart. The last thing Naruto was aware of before his world turned dark was the sounds of vicious snarls and tearing flesh that echoed throughout his mind.

Naruto's POV

~~~~~~~Confusion was all I could feel as I looked around my surroundings. It was very similar to Konoha though everything was colored in black, except for the blood red sky. I looked around with a growing sense of fear, that was strange almost unnatural. A loud screech cut through the eerie silence causing me to jump, I felt my breath hitch as another sound reached my ears. It was a slow heavy thump that was closely followed by a hissing like noise that resembled something being dragged through the dirt. Then the wind picked up suddenly creating a vicious howling noise that sent shivers down my spine. ~~~~~~~

You hear the screeching of an owl,
You hear the wind begin to howl,
You know there's zombies on the prowl,

~~~~~~~My breath caught in my throat as my fear increase tenfold I knew that whatever it was I didn't want it to find me. With my instincts blaring in my ears to flee, I turned and ran as fast as my little legs would take me. ~~~~~~~

And it's terror time again,
They've got you running though the night,

~~~~~~~I let out a terrified cry as a huge, bulky black dog emerged from the shadows right in front of me. Its horrifying glowing red eyes glinted maliciously as it stalked towards me with its sharp pointy fangs bared. ~~~~~~~

It's terror time again,
And you just might die of fright,
It's a terrifying time,

~~~~~~~ My heart pounded as I ran down the now maze like Konoha streets. I felt a scream bubbling up in my throat as another one of those scary dogs morphed from the surrounding darkness in front of me. Knowing I couldn't go back because of the one and that thing that was behind me, I ran to another alley to my left. ~~~~~~~

You hear the beating of your heart,
You know the screaming's gonna start,
Here comes the really scary part,

~~~~~~~ My legs pumped as hard as they could as, suddenly the shadows on either side of me begin to morph into those strange canines. And the night was filled with vicious snarls, heart-stopping growls and that eerie thump and then sliding noise that was still behind him.~~~~~~~

Cause it's terror time again,
They've got you running through the night,

~~~~~~~ It felt as if my heart would burst from my chest as I ran through the maze like nightmare. I knew that if I slowed down or looked behind me I would probably die of fear. Finally I burst out of the village and into the forest surrounding it. ~~~~~~~

It's terror time again,
Oh, you just might die of fright,
It's a terrifying time,

~~~~~~~The wind blew viciously through the tall trunks causing them to creak and moan, I let the scream that had been clawing at my throat out as right before my eyes the once healthy, although black, trees began to rot. ~~~~~~~

All the trees begin to moan,

~~~~~~~ I heard the snarls and growls from the monstrous dogs that chased me. All around me I see glowing red eyes, bodies hidden by the shadows and rotten trees. ~~~~~~~

And the monsters grunt and groan,

~~~~~~~I felt tears of fear and pain run down my face as I finally got a glimpse at what was making that eerie noise, and wishing that I could erase it all. Because there staring back at me were the rotten faces of the Sandaime, the ramen stand owner and his daughter, all of the people who actually cared if only a little bit about his well being. ~~~~~~~

Rotting faces full of slime,

~~~~~~~ I was so beyond scared that it made me sick to my stomach, but I knew I couldn't stop or else they would get me. ~~~~~~~

Don't you know it's terror time,

~~~~~~~ Finally I reached an empty clearing that had a clear view of the creepy pale orange full moon. I stopped to catch my breath in the empty and safe clearing. ~~~~~~~

And it's terror time again,
They've got you running through the night,

~~~~~~~ Turning around in pure dread, I let out a horrified scream as one of the monstrous dogs pounced on me from the bushes. ~~~~~~~

Yes, it's terror time again,
Oh, you just might die of fright,
It's a terrifying time!

Normal POV

Naruto bolted into a sitting position, still letting out a completely terrified shriek as he clawed at his face and neck.

Doctors and nurses rushed into the room, some having to restrain him as they tried to calm the hysterical boy, the Sandaime not too far behind them.

It took awhile but finally after three hours they were able to calm the young blond Jinchuuriki.

"Now Naruto, what happened?" the nice old Hokage asked the boy after the doctors and nurse left.

Naruto kept quiet as one of the whispering voices from earlier told him not to tell.

"It's alright you don't have to tell me." The Sandaime said as he placed his pipe in his mouth.

"Now let's talk about something more interesting, like your ninja training."

Instantly Naruto seemed to perk up as he exclaimed, "I'm going to be the next Hokage, believe it!"

A/N yeah that song was "It's Terror Time Again" by Skycycle. I do not in any way own that song. I just so happen to listening to it while writing this fic.

Hellhounds; typically have features such as black fur color, glowing red eyes, super strength and/or speed, ghostly or phantom characteristics, and sometimes even the ability to talk. Hellhounds are often associated with the element of fire, and may have fire-based abilities and appearances, hellhounds appear out of nowhere suddenly and have been known to vanish in a blink of an eye. They are often assigned to guard the entrances to the world of the dead, such as graveyards and Indian burial grounds, or undertake other duties related to the afterlife or the supernatural, such as hunting down lost souls or guarding a supernatural treasure. There is a legend, it tells that if one happened to see the hellhound three times, he or she will die an abrupt and unseen death. The most famous Hell hound is Cerberus, who guards the entrance to the underworld. He has three heads, a tail or mane (depends on version of myth) of snake(s), and is tall enough to make men fell like ants. He also has a brother, Orthrus, who has two heads. And what else? Let's see... Oh yeah, they were said to bring the souls of the dead/dieing to hades. (forgot were i copied this info from)

Hoped you liked it and don't forget to R&R
