A different version
Author note: This is my first fanfiction ever so please if you have any advice I would appreciate. This story will be different of the original story line at some point and will probably have some incoherence with Naruto universe but I will try to limit them. Naruto will be smarter but he is Naruto so he will still not be the brightest guy in the world, the story will contain the NaruSaku couple. I don't like Sasuke so I don't know what I'll do to him and sorry for the spelling, English is not my first language. Oh, and the story starts with Naruto's childhood so if you have some ideas of events for him I will see if I can put it in my story. There will be OC and some slight (I hope) OOC so now that you know all this let's start the story shall we.
Rewrite: Now that I am a bit more comfortable with writing fanfictions and because of new ideas: Let's restart this story!
Disclaimer: I do not earn Naruto if not Sakura would've just see Sasuke as only a friend a long time ago (seriously this guy always said she was annoying and tried to kill her several times, how can she still love this guy? Friend ok, I can understand but love is too weird in my opinion).

Prologue:
The night of the Kyubi attack, a group of ninjas found the now dead fourth hokage and his wife Kushina Uzumaki in front of their baby who has now the Kyubi sealed in him. The group is composed of the third hokage and two of kushina's ex-students: Hana Inuzuka and Toyama, a plain looking man with black hair, sea blue eyes and wearing the traditional jonin uniform. Hana was the first to react, running to her sensei side, crying while holding the dead body
"How could this happen? Why did the seal broke?"
"I don't know" said the third hokage "but they sacrificed themselves to protect the village. What I do not understand is why they sealed the Kyubi in their own son?"
"Knowing our sensei she must've believe her son can endure this." stated Toyama "But what will happen to him?"
The third hokage sighted "If the civilian council refuse his godparents to take care of him, I would've said orphanage but I highly doubt any orphanage or family to take him because of the Kyubi and I'm sure the civilian council will prohibit any ninja to help him, he will be in total solitude."
"Can we really not do anything to help him?" asked Hana,
"I'm afraid not, until he become a ninja himself even I will only be able to help him financially" answered the hokage,
"So we will only be able to send him money?" asked Toyama
"As sad as it is, yes" stated the hokage,
"Then I have a favour to ask you lord third" said Toyama
"And what will it be?"
"When Naruto become a ninja I would like to be his jonin sensei"
"Even thought I would like to say yes now I must make the team's placement objectively but I will keep that in mind." Said firmly the hokage
"I understand sir." said a saddened Toyama.
[Five years later]
"And don't even think of coming back damn beast!" Those were the last word a five years old Naruto heard from the owner of the orphanage he was in before the door was slammed shut. It was his fifth birthday and as a present he was kicked out of the orphanage. He didn't cry as he learned the hard way that nobody cared about his tears. Well nobody apart from Tenten, a girl one year older that also was in the orphanage, she had dark brown hair in two Chinese style buns with short fringe-bangs, dark brown eyes and always wore a qipao. Since they met they became nearly inseparable and shared a strong sibling-like relationship despite the orphanage staff trying to keep them apart.
"I suppose I won't see her before a long time… What should I do?" The boy wondered as he walked aimlessly in the streets. It was night time and the village was having a festival to celebrate the defeat of the nine tailed fox by the fourth hokage but that wasn't important for Naruto right now because of one problem: he was hungry. He tried to ask for food but everywhere he went he was thrown away, the people said it was because he didn't have any money but he knew it wasn't the case, he could see the hatred in their eyes. It was the biggest mystery of his life but no matter how much and to who he asked why he was hated for no apparent reason, nobody answered. After being literally thrown out of the festival by some villagers Naruto went in a dark alley and went to sleep on the floor.
"Happy birthday, me" He muttered to himself just before sleep claimed him.
Naruto finds himself in a dark place with water beneath him and a cage in front of him, while wondering where he were a growl made him jump.
"Who's there? Where am I!" asked a scared Naruto.
"So the jailer finally showed himself. So what do you want Kid?" Said a dark voice.
"AH! Where are you? Are you a g-gh-ghost? Don't kill me please!" answered a panicked Naruto.
"Who the hell are you calling a ghost you damn brat!" the dark voice yelled at Naruto who found the source of the voice, a nine-tailed fox in the cage.
"A fox? Wow! You're pretty!" exclaimed Naruto after having a good look of the beast that started to laugh at his comment.
"Hey what's so funny!" exclaimed Naruto.
"You see a gigantic beast and that is your first reaction? It's just too ridiculous! HAHAHA!"
"Hey cut it out! I just like foxes." Said Naruto who then asked "In fact why are you in a cage?" the laughter immediately stopped and the fox glared at Naruto, killing intent clearly leaking.
"You have some guts asking this question brat. A man sealed me in you and if I have the slightest chance of killing you I will take it and free myself!" anybody would've been scarred at this point but Naruto remained calm.
"Why do I feel loneliness in his threats?"
"Is it painful to be sealed?" Naruto asked.
"What?" said a confused fox.
"I mean all you did was sitting here all those years so you must've been lonely right? You know what? I'm goanna find a way to free you one day!" declared Naruto, the beast just stared at the kid in front of him in disbelief.
"Is this brat serious, he's not scarred of me and wants to free me after just one encounter? This is just too good to be real"
"Why should I trust you kid? Humans only looked to control me by sealing me!" yelled the fox,
"Well I never asked anybody to seal you in me, it's cruel!" shouted Naruto.
"This kid… he's definitely serious."
"So what's your name?" asked a smiling Naruto making the fox sight
"My name is Kurama"
"Hehe, I'm Naruto, pleased to know you Kurama" said Naruto with a true smile on his face: he was not completely alone, even if his company doesn't really like him. A peaceful smile made its way on the face of a sleeping Naruto.
Author note: Ok now that finishes this chapter, tell me what you think of it and if you have any writing advice or ideas for his childhood I'll gladly look at them. This story was inspired from A different sensei of bradw316 so they might be some little similitudes.
Rewrite: So it's still short but that's just the prologue, the future chapters will be longer. The next few chapters will be slow as it treats about Naruto's life before he becomes a ninja but it is important as his childhood will make him who he is so bear with me. Hope you enjoyed and see you in the next chapter :)
