Konoha third pov
A nine-year-old Naruto crawled under a bush to hide from the Anbu attacking him. The Hokage had been dragged into a council meeting, and the Anbu who'd lost family saw their chance. They had burned, cut, and stabbed the boy, but the demon fox used his soul to keep him alive. Naruto lay under the bush crying as he held his face with a deep cut going down his right cheek. The burns on his arms were healing, and the blades in his back were pushed out as the wounds healed. The Kyuubi, with his powers sealed into the siblings, the boy's bastard father and whore mother, took out of the village. They even took the godparents with them to train the two brats. While he was forced to use his own life force to keep the kit alive. Even in his newly weakened state, the Kyuubi could hear them as they talked. They took the other two kits the boy was born with. Another male and a female, each holding half his power. They believe one of them would be this child of prophecy who'd save the ninja world. The Kyuubi, a duke of hell, answered only to Lucifer and his wife and killed everything that ever got in his way. Now, he was stuck in a kit that shouldn't have to go through this. But, The Kyuubi knew that the more of his life force was forced into the boy's system, the more he'd become fox-like. The whisker marks on his face were just the beginning if he had to keep doing this. The Kyuubi could use the last of his real power and fuse them, but that would send the boy back to hell to regain the power they lacked. It would take many years to regain all they'd lost, and the chance existed that he'd vanish after the fusion.
"It's here!"
Kyuubi heard that a decision to hell with it. He'd lived for over a thousand years, much old then most demons. A hundred of them sealed away in a damn human that just wants to use his damn powers. But this kid wanted nothing to do with this and had no say in anything. The Kyuubi infused all his claws and tails with his soul, ready to stab them into the kit's own soul.
"Sorry, kit."
Naruto panicked and then crawled father into the bushes before pain shot through the boy's body. And screamed, making the ANBU jump back as a massive chakra blast came from Naruto's body. The bushes and a few threw were thrown away, and they all saw a seal under his torn-up and burnt shirt. A red dome started forming around him.
"It's finally showing itself!"
They were about to attack the dome before the Sandaime Hokage jumped down with ANBU dog and cat at his side.
"STOP YOU FOOLS!"
But they were all too late. Naruto vanished in a blinding light. It forced them to cover their eyes before a massive blast threw them all away. They looked up as a massive light shot up into the dark night sky. They all looked up and froze as they saw the image of the Kyuubi glaring down at them. It grinned as it looked down at them, planning to scare them all one last time as he felt his soul fading into nothingness.
"Thanks for freeing me from my cage. After I form, I'm destroy that village with a single attack to show some gratitude."
The Kyuubi faded from existence with the joy of seeing the horrified face of the old man who'd failed his jailer.
Ruins of Uzu
Minato, Kushina, Tsunade, and Jiraiya were all sitting around a dinner table trying to come up with tomorrow's training. As Minato was about to speak, two puffs of smoke came from the middle of the table. In the middle of the smoke were the two Great Sage Toads. Lord Fukasaku and Lady Shima. Both looked extremely worried as they looked around. Minato spoke up as he looked at them.
"Ma, pa what is wrong?"
They looked at Minato with panic in their eyes.
"Minato boy! The great elder toad has said that the child of prophecy has left the living world. Are Memna and Mito okay!?"
All of them froze as they looked at the toads.
"We put them down to bed not an hour ago."
"Then who?"
Kushina was about to speak before the red messenger toad Sarutobi used to get in contact with Jiraiya. He looked down sadly and spoke before he noticed the two great sages.
"Jiraiya, your teacher sent me with a message. Naruto Uzumaki the son of your late student Minato, has been killed by a rouge squad of Anbu, and the Kyuubi was set free to reform. It has promised the swift destruction of the village as thanks for it's freedom. His body had been completely destroyed. Nothing but a destroyed shirt was left after the fox got free."
He pulled the burnt, cut-up, bloody shirt from his small jacket. It hurt the messenger toad deeply as he looked at the shirt. Such a young life had been lost because of blind rage and hate. When he looked up, he was shocked to see the sages of his home and the now broken people around him.
Ma and Pa looked at him then Pa grew angry as he looked at the shirt. He turned and glared at Minato and Jiraiya scaring both men.
"Who is this Naruto boy!? You had another tadpole, and we weren't told!?"
Ma started to cry as she took the shirt with shaky hands. She was known for her great love for all the tadpoles of her clan. And to learn one had met with such a violent end at such a young age broke her heart of the clan or not a child's death was to be mourned. Minato couldn't respond as he sat there frozen. And Kushina had fallen from her chair from the shocking news of her apparent firstborn death. Tears came to her eyes, and she covered her mouth and shook her head. Minato came out of his shock and spoke.
"T-this wasn't what we plan. Naruto was supposed to be seen as a hero like Menna and Mitowere to be when we return. "
Already angry, Pa jumped up, grabbed the fourth Hokage's collar, and pulled him down as he landed.
"You left your tadpole to his death, you damn fool! How could you value two others over one!?"
Pa shook Minato as Ma ripped into Kushina and Jiraiya. Tears ran down her face as she screamed. Holding the shirt to her chest as she yelled.
"You stupid girl and you damn pervert! You let a young tadpole be left defenseless in a place you should have known was dangerous for him! How could you think it would be safe for him there!?"
Jiraiya tried to explain when Ma stopped yelling, but Pa yelled next.
"No, Ma! These fools can possibly have a good reason."
Pa threw Minato back, making him fall from his chair. Pa hopped back over to his wife, and he felt his heart breaking as he looked at his crying wife as she held the shirt tight in her hands.
"Come on, Ma. We're going to Konoha and will collect what we can from the Hokage. Will put his spirit to rest on Mt. Myoboku so no human can ever bother him again."
"WHAT!?"
Pa and Ma glared at them, and then Pa spoke.
"Menna and Mito will also not be allowed to sign our contract, and we'll speak to the slugs and make sure that they will not be allowed to sign theirs as well."
Minato stood up and spoke as Tsunade tried to comfort the sobbing Kushina.
"But you can't do that! You're one of Konoha's strongest summons, and you can't keep our son's memory away from us!"
Ma glared at Minato, and Pa stomped his foot on the table.
"We can, and you and my now failure of student are forbidden to summon us or use sage mode unless it is in the most dire situations!"
With that said, the two toads left to find a way to put the spirit of a boy they never knew to rest. They left the shell-shocked humans to come to terms with the fact they had lost a son they never got to know due to their own actions and that the prophecy that had started all this was now gone.
Hell third pov
A massive wave of power erupted from the forest before her and traveled through nine rings of hell. All the ancient demons in hell shivered as a power missing from hell suddenly reappeared. But, the most shocked was Lucifer as he jumped up from his throne, eyes wide as he felt his old friend's energy. Lilith, his queen, smiled as he knew one of her husband's friends must have finally returned.
Goetia family estate
Octavia, a nine-year-old owl girl and one of the heirs of the Goetia family, ran through her family's private forest to find a hiding place. Octavia left the house after hearing her parents fighting. As she ran, she was thrown back by the massive wave of power that erupted from the forest in front of her. Octavia, being the child she was, started walking toward the forest's center, wanting to know what was happening. When she reached the forest's center, she saw a young boy laying in a hole. As she walked closer, she saw he looked like a fox with a torn-up pair of black pants with two large pockets on both thighs. But he had nine blood-red tails with orange tails tips and black lines going down them. But he seemed to have a more human body. He had human-looking legs, but his arms were a mix of human and fox front legs. He had hands, but his fingers ended in what looked like razor-sharp claws. The skin of his face, and she blushed. Naruto's whisker marks had grown out to become larger, with scratches marks at the edges. Around his eyes were black marks. The marks traveled up to his new ears on the top of his head. On his back were six spiral circles on his back all connected by black lines.
(Think Naruto's Baryon Mode for the face)
Octavia touched his face with her hand. Not sure what to do, Octavia sat down and rested his head on her thigh. Octavia didn't know why, but she started to run her hand through Naruto's hair and felt his ears as she stroked his hair.
"OCTAVIA!"
She looked behind her as her father burst through the trees. Octavia rested her hand on Naruto's head, but she froze along with her father as a black portal opened above the forest. They looked up as Lucifer himself fell through the portal. He crashed down infront of them and looked down at Naruto.
"I see, so my old friend passed on his power and some of his soul as well. Kurama, the first Duke and true Duke of the Wrath."
Lucifer looked at the young girl. He saw her holding the boy with such a soft hand, a hand Kurama was never shown or felt. Then he looks at the boy more closely. Newer and older scars could be seen once you looked close enough. Lucifer frowned as he looked at the heir his friend sent.
'No, I will not let history repeat again.'
Lucifer then looked up at Stolas and spoke in a slow, calm tone.
"Stolas, this young demon is the heir to the title Duke and the dukeship of wrath. I leave him too your care for now. I'll be sending one of a kind materials from the human world for him to learn from."
Stolas got on one knee and bowed his head.
"Yes my king."
Lucifer turned and opened another portal. He looked back at Naruto out of the corner of his eye.
'That child, he's going to become very powerful. And those marks on his back. If those are what I think they are. He may even become more powerful than the sins and reach closer to me than Kurama ever did.'
Konoha, two days before the return of the fourth Hokage and family
Konoha, one of the five great nations, was in deep depression and anger. They had all been told the truth by a rage-filled third Hokage. The boy that was killed was the son of the fourth Hokage and the only thing that was holding the soul of the nine tails in check. He told them that the boy they had beaten, starved, abused, neglected, and shamed was the son of the great hero of the leaf. He'd also told them of how the fourth himself and his wife abandoned his son for his other two children. The civilians of the village were crushed at how they treated the true hero of the village. The ninja clans had felt unbelieve shame as they realized what they'd left Naruto to. Many had thought he could be Minato's and Kushina's son but had no proof. Now all the ninja heads were standing in front of the Hokages, having followed the order to come to the Hokage's office. Now, they stood before him as he took a puff of his pipe. He pulled the pipe away and breathed out the smoke as he looked at them all.
"So you all know, The fourth, his wife, children, and my last two students are coming back to the village. From what I understand from the elder toads. They came to take what was left of Naruto's things to put his spirit to rest where no human will disturb his spirit."
The heads looked down in shame.
"So that's why he hasn't had a tombstone placed in the graveyard."
Hiruzen looked at Tsume as she spoke.
"What do you mean?"
Tsume cleared her throat and spoke up.
"My pup Kiba and he may not have been good friends, but they were classmates and as a mother. I told him we should go and lay flowers at his grave. Many of us did, but we couldn't find one."
Hiruzen looked at Shikaku Nara as he stood up and spoke his mind.
"Let's not forget what we all did. We all looked at the boy as if he wasn't there. And now, we have a family that we have no idea what they are capable of on the way here. And we all know that they know Naruto is dead. We need to have a plan to deal with them once they show up."
Everyone hated to admit he was right, but unknown to them all, a new prophecy was given to all the great elders of all the summons, one of destruction.
