NejiGaa

Okay, now because I suck at summaries I'll just let you read but first...

...I'm sorry if anyone is a little OOC tell what you think I'm doing wrong if you leave a review and I'll try to fix it in the next few chapters, also, in this fic, the Uchiha massacre did occur but Itachi wasn't behind it, who it really was is revealed later ;) this chapter is mainly about introducing the main four characters and a baseline for the plot, after this I'll write a chapter for Naruto and Kyuubi-their clan history and tragedies and whatnot. And I'll write one fort he Uchiha's-the same back story stuff - before I get into the plot

I'm going to try and update at least once a week and since today is a ummm... Wednesday, I'll try to update by next Wednesday, Remember though I live in Australia so time differences and all that jazz...

ANYWAY ENJOY AND REVIEW!

Uzumaki Fox

Being on the run is tiring. Naruto ran down the cracked grey path, being almost blinded by an on coming car with his headlights beaming.

He heard the gunshot before he felt the pain and he felt the warmth spread through his black shirt before he realized that he'd been shot.

The blond stumbled, quickly turned into the alley way to his left before his knees gave out. Three burly men came into view at the other end of the dark path and they slowly made their way towards the blue eyed boy.

"Come now, cooperate and nothing with come to harm you, we...promise," The biggest man said, struggling not to laugh.

Naruto gathered his strength and pushed himself up to stand, his side was still gushing, staining the ground a sickly dark crimson. The blond spat at the men. "Screw you, I'm not going anywhere or doing anything."

The dark haired guy to the big one's right sighed and said, "It's not every day we find something as...profitable as you, so, I'm afraid you get no choice, them ears of yours are worth a pretty penny on the black market, so we'll be taking them, and you."

Uzumaki Naruto, the thirteen year old troublemaker of Konoha High. The Uzumaki clan had a unique trait about them; Fox ears. Of course, they still had their human ears, but a pair of soft fox ears sit on the tops of their heads. Said appendages are told to be worth a lot of money in the red-light district but Naruto himself had never been, though his older brother, Kyuubi had, and he had said it was filthy. Naruto hung to his brothers every word.

-x-

"Disgusting," Kyuubi said shaking his head at the memory.

That day Kyuubi had come home bruised and battered, bleeding and sore, his left fox ear had been torn and Naruto had no idea how he could help his brother.

"Naru-chan?" Kyuubi asked.

Naruto turned to face his brother. "Yes, Kyuu?"

"Promise me that you'll never go to the red-light district."

Naruto was silent as his brother tipped his head back, his red fox ears laying flat against his head, practically invisible against his scarlet hair. Naruto envied his brother, who could hide his ears so easily while Naruto had to try really hard to get his fluffy black ears to stay covered by his bright blond hair.

Kyuubi sighed as Naruto covered him with a warm blanket. "I promise," Naruto said.

-x-

That was only last week, and here Naruto was about to be taken to the very place he promised to stay away from.

Naruto spun and dashed with an almost inhuman speed and grace to the other side othe the ally way and across the street, jumping over a puddle made from the night's earlier rain that had forced his hair to flatten and his ears to show.

He was almost across the street by the time the hunters were out of the alley, but as Naruto's ears turned back to listen to the three men a black sedan rounded the corner too fast and clipped Naruto's leg.

The blond fell to the ground and into another puddle of muddy water, unknowingly he had made his way to the edge of the red-light district where the Sedan was moving away from.

Naruto looked back as he heard the sedan's door open and a familiar voice called his name. Itachi.

Uchiha Itachi was Kyuubi's best friend and classmate in college, the two eighteen year olds were friends since childhood and were never inseparable as kids. Naruto had heard that Itachi had a sibling, but had never met the kid.

The raven had his log hair pulled back into a ponytail at the back oh his head, as usual and his dark eyes were glittering like they did any time he was going to see Kyuubi. He noticed Naruto's feral look; his hair was matted and in tangles framing his tanned face and effectively making the whisker marks on his cheeks more prominent. He had a hole in his black shirt and a thin trail of red ran down his leg. His foot wasn't broken, just sprained but still Itachi felt awful. He had just hit his best friends brother with his car!

A shot rang out and Itachi grimaced as his ankle exploded with pain, he grit his teeth and yelled, "Sasuke! Come on!" Itachi looked down at his leg and saw that his ankle was most likely broken as well as shot.

Another dark haired boy appeared from the vehicle and Naruto's eyes widened. The boy was well, Naruto wasn't gay or anything but even he could see that the boy who emerged from the black sedan was gorgeous. Even if his blue-ish black hair did stand on end looking like a duck butt and that his scowl seemed to be directed at Naruto for making him get out of the car. His midnight black eyes narrowed as Naruto moved to stand, only to drop back to his knees as more shots were fired from the hunters guns.

The raven moved towards the blue eyed boy and helped him up.

Naruto's black ears twitched and turned as the hunters yelled for the raven to put their 'prize' down. Itachi limped back towards the car as Sasuke got Naruto in the back seat and jumped in after. Itachi started the car, got in and drove.

The car was jerky and uncomfortable for Naruto as the car swerved causing him to lean on his wound and his leg. The blond yelled and squeezed his eyes tight. Sasuke looked up as his brother grimanced the pain in hi ankle becoming more and more unbearable.

"Sasuke," Itachi said, getting the younger raven's attention. "Get my phone and dial Kyuubi's number."

"Nii-san, I don't think now is a good time to call your boyfriend and tell him you can't make it," Sasuke said with indifference.

"Just do it Sasuke!" Itachi snapped.

His brother jumped but did as instructed before his put the phone on speaker and let Itachi talk. The phone ran once, twice, three times before the red head picked up. "Hey Itachi, what's up?" Kyuubi said, his tone light.

"Meet me at the hospital," Itachi replied, his voice strained.

There was rustling on the other end as Kyuubi started to worry. "Why? What happened?"

"It's Naruto." Sasuke's brother winced as Kyuubi's voice erupted through the speakers. Naruto

whimpered at the sudden noise.

"Don't be so loud, Kyuu," Naruto said.

"Naruto?" Kyuubi asked. "Are you alright? What happened? Are you hurt?"

"I'm fine, I really tired," Naruto's eyes began to drop as he slowly lost consiousness.

"Sasuke, keep him awake, don't let him fall asleep!" Itachi yelled.

"What am I supposed to say?" Sasuke yelled back.

"Anything, he's lost too much blood," The driver said. "If he falls asleep now, we may loose him."

"UCHIHA ITACHI!" Kyuubi yelled. "What the fuck happened to my little brother?!"

"Just meet us at the hospital, I'll explain everything there!" Itachi yelled back and hung up.

Meanwhile, Sasuke shifted closer to the drifting blond. "Hey, wake up," he said shaking his arm. The blond didn't respond.

"Try harder, Sasuke," his brother growled.

"Hn." The younger Uchiha sighed. "Hey, Dobe, wake up."

"Who are you calling Dobe, Teme?" The blue eyed boy was staring at him, his eyes angry.

"You, Usuratonkachi."

"Bastard."

"Idiot."

"Jerk."

"Dumbass."

"Duck butt."

"Baka."

"You, you - Ahhhh!" Naruto yelled.

Sasuke was smirking as Itachi whispered, "Introduce yourself, I was taking you to meet him anyway."

Again the younger raven sighed. "I'm Uchiha Sasuke," the raven said. "Dobe."

The blond's eyes glittered. "Uzumaki Naruto, Teme."

"I know."

"Come on we're here, get him inside, Sasuke," Itachi ordered. Sasuke muttered under his breath as he walked the blonde inside and let the nurses take him.

Itachi forced Sasuke to stay at the hospital while the doctors performed the needed surgery. A few moment later, Kyuubi rushed into the waiting room.

Itachi stood and walked to his friend, grabbing his shoulders the raven explained what had happened. It hurt Itachi in his heart to see how Kyuubi's handsome face fell when his heard what had gone on. The two men had only started dating a few weeks before and Naruto was oblivious to it all. In fact, that was the reason Itachi was visiting Kyuubi that night, together they were going to tell Naruto. Needless to say, they were both nervous. It made Itachi laugh, him a great Uchiha nervous of a thirteen year old boy.

But once you saw what happened to the Uzumaki's when they got mad or upset, anyone would be frightened. Itachi had made Kyuubi mad once and he still had the scar to prove it.

"I'm really, really sorry Kyuu, I tried-" Itachi started.

"What happened to your leg?" Kyuubi asked looking down at the raven's red stained skin.

Itachi chuckled. "Those hunter's shot me, I'll be alright though."

"You get hurt protecting Naruto?"

The raven nodded and was going to say it was no big deal, but before he could even open his mouth, the Uzumaki's lips were on his own. Everything else dropped away, all he could think about was Kyuubi, the way his soft lips felt against his own, the way he tasted, the sent that was purely his, it overtook his mind and sent shivers down his spine.

In the waiting room, Sasuke was told by the doctor that the surgery went well and that the blond wanted company. But when the raven went to find the two others, he found them in a heated kiss and decided to spoil their fun.

The young Uchiha tapped his brother on the shoulder and stepped back. The two men sprang apart a heated blush covering their features. "Dobe wants company," was all the explaination Kyuubi needed to be out of the hall in a second. "Have fun?" He asked his brother.

"Shut up."

Kyuubi rushed into Naruto's room and started ranting about how worried he was when Itachi called him or something. Naruto didn't really pay much attention, he just smiled and enjoyed his brother's company.

A few minutes later Itachi walked into the room and Kyuubi smiled at the raven. "Naruto, I want to tell you something, don't freak out."

"You are dating Itachi?" Naruto guessed.

Hm, Sasuke thought from outside of the door as he lent against the pale blue wall. The Dobe isn't as dumb as he looks.

"How did you-? When-?" Kyuubi stuttered.

Itachi smiled and asked, "Are you alright with this?"

The blonde nodded and said, "Hell yeah, it's about time!" He grinned from ear to ear and laughed.

The blond didn't see Sasuke for a very long time.

Four years later.

"So class, we have a new student," Kakashi said to the class, forcing a seventeen year old Naruto to look up from his desk, where he had been trying to sleep. "He's transferred from the school across town and please, please, don't be loud."

Nara Shikamaru sat behind the blonde, asleep on his own arms and only woke when the guy appeared and made the girls squeal. "What the-?" The brunet started. "What a drag, it was a really good dream too." The guy was literally a genius with an IQ over 250 the only thing he lacked was motivation, but he claimed everything was a drag. "Troublesome," he muttered under his breath and tried to sleep again as his boyfriend, Inuzuka Kiba, poked him in the cheek and whispered something to him.

Naruto moved his gaze to the newcomer who he instantly recognized. As if he could forget that blue black duck butt and cold midnight eyes framed by long silky bangs. He wore a dark blue shirt and black skinny jeans that made his porcelain skin look even whiter.

"You can sit over there," Kakashi pointed to the empty desk next to Naruto before he pulled out his 'Icha-Icha Paradise' novel and read, no one able to rad his face because of the mask he always wore, covering his mouth and nose.

The raven sat in the desk and looked over at Naruto.

"Dobe."
