Well, welcome to the prologue of 'Alone I Dream'. I think there hasn't been a FF on this board yet where Naruto's body wasn't able to handle the Kyuubi. So I wondered how Naruto's life would have turned out if he never became a ninja but still wanted to protect his village. I hope it didn't turn out to bad.

Enjoy and please R&R

Prologue

Once appeared a Nine-Tailed Demon Fox in the Land of Fire. Its mighty tails could crumble mountains and cause tsunamis. To fight the demon the people assembled all the shonobi from the Village Hidden in the Leaf. One brave shinobi was able to seal up the demon, but because of that he lost his life.

That shinobi was called the Forth Hokage.

The battle was finally over. The nine-tailed fox had been defeated.

But it had been paid with the blood of the people that had fallen before its terrifying powers. The person that had managed to win against the strongest biju was lying on the ground, feeling how his life faded away. The Yondaime Hokage had given his life to seal the Kyuubi away in his own son. His eyes loosing their eyes were filled with tears as he thought that he would never see his son grow up.

With his dying breath he whispered "Be strong… my son." His eyes closed. The Yondaime was dead. In the town behind him a child was crying. The child's name was… Naruto.

The Sandaime Hokage looked at the child as the seal on its belly started to glow in a crimson red. He sighed heavily. He knew what it meant. The nine-tailed was defeated… but for what?

His dark thoughts were interrupted when the child started crying like mad, but it wasn't just a baby's usual crying. This one spoke of unimaginable pain. When crimson chakra started to leak from the newborn, the retired Hokage new that the situation was still dangerous for Konoha. The Third Hokage was surprised by this to say at least, had something gone wrong with the sealing?

"Quickly, alarm the hospital! The child's life is in danger!"

The ANBU hurried to fulfil the Hokage's orders. Once they were gone Sarutobi took the crying child and hurried towards the hospital as well.

"Minato, I won't let your child suffer the same fate like you did."

A few hours later…

The Sandaime was sitting in his old office again. He had been reinstated as Hokage since there wasn't a suitable successor to Minato. He got up and went to the hospital. The Third Hokage wanted to know if the boy's condition was stable again, he feared for the boy's life. He entered the room where Naruto was stationed in only to find the doctor in charge looking at the results of the examination. When the doctor noticed that the door opened, he saw the Hokage.

"Hokage-sama, it's good to see you."

"Thank you doctor, so, how's the boy?"

The doctor's face became blank when the Hokage asked him. Slowly he said:

"When we treated the boy we noticed a rapid decline of his body functions, muscles, cells, organs, everything. Furthermore the muscles suffered the most intensive chakra burn I've ever seen. We managed to stabilize him but we were unable to undo the damage he received up to that point. He is damaged beyond repair; even Tsunade-sama wouldn't be able to help this boy."

He looked sadly at the shocked Hokage.

"I'm afraid the boy will never be able to live a normal life. He might be able to move, but it would be a miracle if he could walk more than three steps. I'm sorry, Hokage-sama."

A world shattered for the Third Hokage.
