I DON'T OWN NARUTO
Chapter 1 The Trail of Blood and Saving a Life
Konoha 5:00p.m.
It was a relatively good day in Konoha for everyone, that is everyone except for a six year old boy by the name of Uzumaki Naruto.
'Why' he thought to himself as he limped through an alley of Konoha with two bundles of fur wrapped in his arms, knocking trash cans and other things down, a trail of blood unnoticed behind him.'All I wanted to do is play with him.'
He shook his head, he couldn't think about that right now, he had to focus on getting help for the bundles of fur in his arms. 'Who were the people the girl with the hurt cat said helped animals the Ina...Inu...thats it the Inuzuka clan.' he thought to himself as he changed directions as he continued to limp in the direction of the Inuzuka compound once he got to the end of the alley receiving glares not only directed at him but the bundles in his arms. 'Look at the demon' he heard people mutter under there breath, but he didn't care, he wanted to get help for what was in his arms. People were to busy glaring and snickering to notice the big blood trail behind him.
Time Skip (30 minutes) (5:30 pm.)
"I reached it" he panted out, half-way through his walk/limp his breathing got irregular.
He limped up to the door and knocked on the thin door, No answer, he knocked again, still no answer. He started to cry.
"N...no ones home" he cried out as he fell to his knees.
"Whats that" he said to himself when he felt something warm on his knees, he looked down. "Bl..blood, wait t..thats m...my blood" he stuttered out of fear as he felt unconsciousness starting to pull at him.
'No I can't pass out now' he thought to himself. 'If they come home they wont know why I'm here.' Then a thought hit him, quickly he set the bundles down and wrote something down on the floor in his blood before he slumped down and fell to the side unconscious, the pool of blood under him slowly getting bigger.
'Help them' was what he wrote down next to two unconscious fox kits
Somewhere in Konoha (5:30pm.)
It had been a good day in Konoha for the Inuzuka family especially for one Hana Inuzuka, she tried for her veterinarian license and passed, that and her and her mother, Tsume, didn't have any missions and to celebrate her passing they had went out to eat they were on their way home when she saw something red out of the corner of her eye.
'What is that' she thought to herself. She sniffed the air to see if she could get its scent and froze. 'That smells like blood!' she concluded and turned toward the alley she saw the red thing in and stiffened, Tsume saw that Hana stopped and stopped along with Kiba, Hana's brother, and turned around to Hana.
"Hana whats wrong?" Tsume asked.
"Yeah onee-san we're almost home." Kiba said.
Hana didn't answer, instead acting on instinct she ran into the alley to investigate.
"Hana what the hell!" Tsume shouted as she started to run after her. "Kiba come on."
When Tsume got to the entrance of the alley she shouted, "Hana why the He-" but stopped when she saw what her daughter was looking at. Kiba just froze when he saw it.
"Kaa-san w-why is their blood here?" Hana finally stuttered out. "And why does it smell like foxes?"
"I...I don't know." Tsume said as she thought "Could it be that boy?"
Hana continued to look around until she noticed a trail of blood branch off the small puddle in front of her. "Kaa-san there's a trail going towards the other end of the alley."
"Lets follow it and see who or what it takes us to before we tell Hokage-sama." Tsume said as she picked up Kiba and carried him because he fainted from the sight of all the blood.
They started running while following the blood trail. Until Hana figured out and saw where it was headed.
"Kaa-san look its going in the direction of our house!" Hana said.
"I think your right lets go." Tsume said as she took the lead running toward their home.
Inuzuka Compound (5:45 pm.)
When Tsume and Hana got home with an unconscious Kiba they came to the sound of dogs barking, they had left their usual animal companions home.
"Whoever came here has them going crazy. Hana, I'm going to put Kiba in bed try finding out whats going on." Tsume shouted over the barks.
"Hai." Hana shouted and with that Tsume disappeared into the house.
As Hana watched her mother enter the house she caught the scent of foxes again. 'Could it be just a couple of foxes that came through here?' she thought as she walked up to the porch that wrapped around the house. She got to the porch and walked around a corner and froze. At the end of the walkway their was a big puddle of blood. Hana quickly ran to the end of the walkway thinking 'Where did all the blood come from, surely not from the foxes.' As she turned the corner she froze again.
Sure the foxes she thought went through the compound were there but there was also a body, a body of a blond boy who had three whisker like marks on each of his cheeks wearing a orange shirt with the symbol of a leaf on it and black shorts, his clothes were torn, he was bleeding, and he was deathly pale. Hana rushed over to the boy and checked for a pulse, she found one but it was barely there, then something caught her eye she looked down and saw a red glow on one of the boys wounds and decided to touch it out of curiosity and once she touched it she screamed.
Inside the Inuzuka Household
Tsume heard her daughter scream and thought 'What the hell' and ran out of the house to where she heard the scream come from.
When Tsume got there all she saw was the blood, her daughter, and a very pale boy she recognized.
'I knew it was him' Tsume thought as she ran over to check on her daughter and gasped, her daughters eyes were glazed over and had no life in them, she checked her daughters pulse and found that her daughter was still alive. Tsume then noticed her daughters hand over one of the boys wounds and then saw a dieing red glow, she then touched it and blacked out.
Naruto's Mind scape
'Ow my head' was the thought of Hana as she got up and looked around noticing she was in a place that looked like Konoha's sewer, except with walls that were slowly crumbling, she then noticed that their was some next to her, realization then hit her it was her mother, she rushed over and started to shake her.
"Kaa-san wake up, I need your help." Hana said while shaking her.
"H-Hana what happened?" Tsume asked her daughter as she started to come to.
"I...I don't know Kaa-san all I remember is the boy and the red glow." Hana said
"Well lets see if we ca get out of here." Tsume said taking in their surroundings.
As they walked they kept hearing what sounded like crying and it kept getting louder the deeper they got. When they were about to turn a corner they heard sobbing and the muttering of why. Then they heard a voice that that made their blood run cold.
"Kit shut up your being annoying." a deep voice said that made Tsume and Hana shudder in fear.
With Naruto
Naruto shot up once he heard the voice and started shaking in fear.
"W-wh-who's th-there?" Naruto stuttered out.
"I am Kit." Naruto heard a deep voice behind him say.
Naruto slowly turned around, still shaking in fear and gap at what he saw, it was what seemed to be a giant gate that seemed to disappear into the darkness that was the ceiling forever being held shut by a small piece of paper with the kanji for 'seal.' Behind the gates as far as Naruto could see was nothing but darkness except for two huge slitted red eyes.
"Wh-who are y-you?" Naruto questioned, still shaking in fear, as he started to bring his knees up to his face and started to tear up again.
"And where am I?" Naruto wailed as he noticed his surroundings.
"Well kit I would be the great and powerful Kyuubi no Kistune" the eyes said flaring its youki and showing Naruto the form of a giant fox with nine tails "and you are in your mindscape." Kyuubi said with his voice full of malice.
"Wh-whats a mindscape?" Naruto asked with a little confidence deciding he shouldn't show fear to anyone especially to something he though was a giant furball.
"It is a place in your mind that only you can control." Kyuubi replied.
"Cool" Naruto shouted.
"Now kit come closer we have much to discuss before its too late." Kyuubi said with a little bit of sadness in his voice.
With Tsume and Hana
As soon as Tsume heard what the Kyuubi asked Naruto to do she took off scaring the crap out of Hana.
"Kaa-san?" Hana shouted as she watched her mother turn the corner and then shout "Naruto don't."
Back with Naruto
As soon as he heard the shout Naruto turned his head so fast he could have broken his neck. He then heard Kyuubi say "Ah so the ningen I brought here to witness what will happen has finally found us."
"What do you mean demon?" Tsume asked with pure hatred in her voice.
"First why don't you have the other ningen join us." They then heard a gasp of surprise. Then Hana appeared and stood next to her mother.
Before Kyuubi could start talking again Naruto spoke up. "Um excuse me but who are you two?"
"My name's Tsume Inuzuka head of the Inuzuka clan and this is my daughter Hana, I'm pleased to meet you Naruto." Tsume replied keeping her eyes on Kyuubi.
"How do you know my name?" Naruto asked
"Well Naruto to those of us that care your pretty well known being as how you are the hero of Konoha and all." Tsume replied
"Nani?" Both Naruto and Hana yelled. "What do you mean by that." they both shouted again.
"Well you see when he-" Tsume started but was cut off by Kyuubi.
"She." Kyuubi stated.
"Right when she attacked..." Tsume started again but abruptly stopped and blinked, and blinked, and blinked yet again until "WHAAAAT?" Tsume finally shouted.
"Well you see demons have two forms a human hybrid form and a demon/animal form, you see while in demon form males sound well like males but with a really deep voice, while females for some reason, while in demon form have deeper voices than the males that is why anyone one of of you ningen who see a female demon in demon form mistake them for males, thus that is why everyone in your village on that night thought I was male, the only way to tell I'm female in this form is by my scent or if you see me turn into this form from my hybrid form." Kyuubi explained.
"Wow cool can you transform and show us." Naruto asked excitedly.
"No, there isn't much time for that right now we only have a little bit of time left." Kyuubi said.
"What do you mean by that?" Hana spoke up for the first since meeting the giant fox.
"Well while were in here in Naruto's head minutes have passed by while on the outside only seconds have passed by." Kyuubi explained.
"Okay I understand that, but what do you mean by not much time?" Hana asked.
"When you found Naruto he had already been bleeding for at least an hour, normally he would have healed the wound in minutes if I were up but I was asleep and didn't know Naruto was injured until he woke me up, still it should have healed because as I sleep I let a small amount of my youki out so it can heal him but apparently the wound is so severe that the youki I put out while I sleep was only enough to partially heal the wound and keep him alive for only so long." Kyuubi explained.
"So what do we do, I don't think he'd live till we got him to a hospital." Tsume said a look of concern on her face, she didn't want the boy to die.
"There is only one way to save him that I know of but it's up to him." Kyuubi said.
"Why should we trust you?" Tsume asked glaring at Kyuubi.
"Because for what for what I did there is nothing I can doto change what happened that night except say that I am sorry and that I will do the best I can to make up for what I did by helping Naruto starting with saving him." Kyuubi said with what everyone assumed was a downcast look on her fox face.
Tsume saw the look and was in shock, Kyuubi, the strongest of the bijuu had apologized for what she did, and to top it off she looked truly sorry for it. Tsume nearly chocked a what she heard next.
"It's okay Kyuubi-chan I'm sure you had a reason for what you did." Naruto said.
Tsume was gasping for air. She couldn't believe it this kid had just added a familiar suffix to one of the greatest looked over to her daughter and saw she had the same reaction then she thought 'Damn this kid has some brass balls to try and be familiar with Kyuubi and get away with it.' as she noticed Kyuubi didn't do anything when she clearly heard Naruto.
"Thank you kit and yes I did have a good reason, but right now you have to decide, what will you choose, your choices are for me to flood your chakra coils with my youki and turn you into a demon or you can choose not to do it and die and with you dead I will die too since my soul has started to fuse with yours thanks to the seal that holds me here." Kyuubi said hoping he would choose the former rather than the later, it was not the that she cared to die it was just that she didn't want the boy to die.
"WHAT!" Tsume shouted. "You can't turn him into a demon he'll be killed once people find out, you ju-" Tsume was cut off.
"Tsume-san I thank you for the concern but its my decision." Naruto said.
"Hey you can't talk to my kaa-san like that. I should ki-" This time Hana was cut off.
"Hana! Naruto is right its his choice. Let him choose." Tsume said strictly to her daughter while hoping Naruto would make the right choice.
"I choose..." Naruto started.
