This is actually my first time writing a story. Read and review please!

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto thought I wish I did.

In this story I've changed quite a few things but characters remain the same. The time plot has changed a bit also. Instead of training for 2 years, Naruto trains for 3 years. This is needed for some of the few things I'm trying to write in P most of which I can't tell you. Anyways the plot is of this story mostly revolves around Naruto and his life after h e returns (very clichéd but a good plot none the less) relationships… I haven't decided seeing as I like to have emotions and feelings progress in each character, so Naruto might end up with anyone( no yaoi though)It's entirely up to me O, I have a lot of power no? How ever there are some things my readers can influence and that is helping me with various technique names. I am very bad at converting Japanese to English as I tend to write the direct meaning…which sometimes can be read the wrong way. And if I were to type a wrong move you guys can help correct me through reviews. I am at your mercy. (Don't rub it in)

Various Couplings That I Prefer-

Naruto and Hinata- one of the few couples I prefer, it's quite the cute couple.

Naruto and Sakura- tend to be romantic, fluffy and very comical at times, yet violent at others.

Naruto and Ino- very rare and I can say why...it's awkward and hard to work with seeing as Naruto and Ino have no background relationships (so to speak they don't interact much)

Setup- mostly it will be in 1st person view (I can switch between characters)at times there will be flashbacks.

'Blah"-speaking

"Kyuubi" speaking

Flashbacks –they will all be underlined

-Introduction-

Chapter 1 "Prologue"

My life has been somewhat of a blur to me. Since birth my fate was already sealed, I would be forced to walk the road of loneliness. Far as I could remember luck, friends and family were things I never had.

Of everything that has happened to me, there are only a few I would say are good. It is almost as if a black cloud of misfortune over shadows me.

Wherever I go I am shunned, I am unwanted, nothing more than a haunting memory to most and most of all in their eyes I was suppose to be dead. Why I still live is beyond me, anyone else in my shoes would havekilled themselveslong ago or have had someone else do it for them.

Maybe that's what sets me part from others…the fact that I am who I am but not who I want to be. Everyone has a dream of becoming someone who matters, that's why I strive to live, to be known respected and cared for, still both you and I know that that'll probably never happen.

My name is Uzumaki Naruto. You probably haven't heard of me or if you have it can't be good things.

I was born into this world 16 years ago and with it I took the life of my mother. By fate I would also shortly become the vessel foe the demon Kyuubi, the Nine-tailed demon fox.

It's ironic that the person who did the sealing would be revered as a hero for saving his village. Who at the same time did such an unspeakable act of sacrificing a human body, a baby none the less.

I grew up oblivious to this until I was rudely awakened by the events that had existed around me for so long. The news hit me harder and hurt me more than any hit that could be inflicted upon me. All this time the people hated me and now I knew why. The information was overwhelming to say the least.

So I was the vessel…the living cage to hold and contain this beast known as the Kyuubi. As bad as it may seem it has its benefits…I heal much faster then a normal person, being attuned with the creature has made my appearance somewhat more feral, I can hear better, smell better, see better, run faster and so on.

Fate had the last laugh upon me yet again… at the age of 15, I came upon the information about the Fourth Hokage, the Yondaime. He was the person who sealed the fox within me. What's even more ironic was he was my father. I was shocked to the core upon discovering this and what's to boot was that I had his blood in me thus making me rightful heir to the Hokage title right?Nope,that wasstripped from me as well…the elders put all their effort into making my life a living hell and they succeeded. They rewrote the rules and regulations so that Jinchuuriki like me would never become a Hokage. Man Iwish those old geezers would bite the dust.

Maybe in the next life time I might become someone with a better life, but for now I'm going to try and live this one out and I'm not giving up until I achieve what I want. My love for the darnn villages exceeds all others, as much as I hate those who inhabit it I just can't let go. And love makes you do stupid things. I will protect this village with my life and those who live in it whether they want the help or not. For that is my way of the ninja. You're about to embark on a journey like no other…a journey about my life.
