A/N: Well...I hate to say it but I deleted Death and The Maelstrom and my Avatar/Naruto story. It wasn't that I couldn't handle writing them, but they didn't have as much appeal as they did when I started writing them. Don't worry...I am planning on rewriting them eventually. Wouldn't be that hard considering I deleted them when they only had a single chapter.

Anyhow, this story is partially inspired by Madara's Brother by . It's a shame that he abandoned that story. Oh well...

Naruto is the older brother of Madara in this story and the second child in the family. This is a time-travel story and aside from the first 1-2 chapters, it will be set in the canon timeline.

Like with most of my stories, Genin graduate at 15.

Naruto will be paired with Naruko (Kazuko). Obviously it won't be incest. I would feel very uncomfortable writing incest.

Naruto will be extremely strong in Part I and Godlike in Part II. If you don't like the fact that Naruto will curb-stomp almost all of his enemies, feel free to leave.

Anyhow...I'm aiming for this story to be one of my main ones. Though This Road I Walk is probably the #1 Story I'm interested in at the moment.

So thank you for checking this story out and enjoy!

[Opening: Courage by Haruka Tomatsu]

[Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto nor any other franchise that may appear in this story]

Long ago, before the era of Hidden Villages, there were two clans of ninja. The Uchiha and the Senju. They were fiercely opposed to each other and constantly clashed upon the battlefield. It was a truly horrible period of time for everyone...children seven years of age or even younger gets sent to die for their clan. Fathers constantly die in combat, leaving widows and fatherless children behind. All kinds of horrible things happen in this age.

The story of the Uchiha and the Senju starts with a common ancestor...the Sage of The Six Paths. The Uchiha are descendants of the eldest child, Indra, while the Senju and Uzumaki Clans are descendants of Ashura, the Sage's youngest child. On his death bed, the Sage wanted to choose a successor and asked the two what they thought was needed to achieve peace. Indra responded that power is needed for peace while Ashura thought love and cooperation was the key. In the end, the Sage chose Ashura as the successor of Ninshū...and Indra, consumed by rage and jealousy, attacked his little brother. This conflict carried on in the Uchiha and Senju Clans.

But there are some of them who can overcome their inherited need for conflict with their distant cousins. Hashirama Senju was one of them. Madara Uchiha, the strongest known Uchiha of all time, was one of them for a time. But one of the Uchiha put aside the inherited lust for battle for the sake of his dream of peace. Naruto Uchiha, older brother of Madara Uchiha, known as the First Founder of Konoha for coming up with the idea of creating Konoha as well as defining the Will of Fire for the first time. Naruto is one of the few Uchiha to completely get over the Curse of Conflict...and the scary thing? Naruto is still to this day known as one of the strongest Uchiha to ever live. Second only to Madara, only because Madara lived longer than Naruto and had more time to home his skills.

But...Naruto was never as dead as both Clans thought.,,,,,

[Land of Fire/Uchiha Clan base/Near the Naka River]

The loud cries of a baby rang throughout the large house of the Clan Head. Inside of the master bedroom, a sweating and tired black-haired woman lay upon the large bed. A nurse to her right smiled and handed her a wailing blue bundle. "Here is your son, Lady Kaoru." She stated.

Kaoru and her husband, Tajima, smiled down at their crying child. She hand long and straight black hair, black eyes, and a pale complexion that was slightly flushed from the effort of childbirth. "Look at him Tajima...isn't he just the most handsome little thing?" She cooed at the boy.

Tajima, who wore a typical off-duty outfit, had a small smile on his face. "Indeed...he has a mighty pair of lungs. One day, he will be a fine warrior!" He exclaimed proudly while embracing his new family. "So what should we name him?" He asked.

Kaoru looked at the child lovingly and replied "Naruto...that will be this boy's name."

"Naruto? What a fine name..." Tajima murmured to his wife and child.

[Four Years Later]

"Tou-san...Tou-san!" A little boy's voice shouted while running to the back patio of the Clan Head's house overlooking the Naka River. This is Naruto Uchiha...heir of the Uchiha Clan. He has short and spiky black hair, pale skin, as black eyes. Naruto is also wearing a black high-collared t-shirt, tan shorts, and black ninja sandals.

Tajima looked to his right and smiled at his excited son. He has always been a bundle of sunshine for the family, especially since his wife died giving birth to the youngest of his five children, Haru. "Naruto...what is it?" He asked.

"Look at what I can do!" The boy shouted and his eyes changed from black to blood red with two tomoe rotating lazily around his pupils.

Tajima gasped and thought 'The Sharingan at the age of four?! The youngest to awaken the Sharingan before Naruto was six years old!'

"Isn't it awesome Tou-san?" Naruto asked happily.

The elder Uchiha grinned and replied "Indeed. Now...I must begin your training starting tomorrow. Now why don't you go play with Madara?"

Naruto nodded his head and ran into the house, not noticing his father's growing grin. 'That boy will change the world one of these days...' He thought.

[Three Years Later/Naka River bank]

Naruto stood on the bank with his ever-present smile while the rest of his family looked on. There was Madara, Izuna, Izuna's twin Daisuke, Haru, and Tajima. "Alright Naruto, we've trained your body and mind sufficiently enough. Now it's time for the coming-of-age test. Preform the Grand Fireball Jutsu." The elder Uchiha ordered.

Naruto faced the river with determination etched upon his face and ran through several hand seals and reared his head back. "Fire Style: Grand Fireball Jutsu!" He shouted and spat out a gigantic white fireball, which instantly evaporated the section of the river it touched. Naruto canceled the Jutsu and turned around to see the awestruck expressions of his family.

"Wow aniki...that fire was so hot..." Madara whispered in amazement with the other siblings nodding in agreement.

Tajima walked forward and clapped his hand on Naruto's shoulder with a proud smile. "That was a fine execution, sochi. Come...we'll have the tailors stitch in the Clan emblem onto your back. Later this week, we'll forge some armor for you." He stated.

As the family began to walk away, Madara looked up at Naruto with excited eyes. "Aniki, can you teach me that?!" He asked.

Naruto smiled and poked the younger boy on the forehead with his left hand's index and middle fingers. "Maybe later otouto. I'm going to be busy for a while." He answered apologetically.

Madara rubbed his forehead in annoyance and replied "You always say that..."

"Well that's because I'm always training...so that I can protect all of my siblings." Naruto spoke, before leaning down to Madara's ear with a broad smile and whispering "Just between me and you...you're my favorite little brother."

Madara gained a happy grin that matched his older brother's. "Then I'll become so strong that I can protect you one day!" He chirped.

Naruto ruffled the little boy's hair and stated "I'm sure you will Madara. One day...you will be the one to bring peace to this war-torn and hateful world. I believe in you."

Madara's eyes went wide as he suddenly stopped. After a few seconds, he heard his family shouting at him to catch up and he dashed off after them.

Naruto wouldn't come to know how much of an impact his confidence made on Madara for years...

[Six Years Later/Naruto: 13 Years old/Field outside of Tanzaku Gai]

Naruto stood in formation with a blank expression. He wore a black turtleneck long-sleeved shirt with the sleeves rolled up to just below his elbows, black cargo pants, black shinobi sandals which covered his entire foot save for his toes with white tape covering his shins, black gloves, and a set of dark purple battle armor. His hair grew out to his shoulders and had two neck-length bangs which framed his face with one of them covering his right eye. He also gained a crease under each eye and grew to a height of five feet and two inches. (Imagine Madara's outfit and hairstyle, only the armor is colored purple and his hair is shorter. Plus, his creases look like Itachi's.)

Next to him, stood Naruto's best friend and rival, Hideo Uchiha. He had very short black hair, a mischievous grin upon his pale face, and black eyes framed by think eyelashes. He wore the standard Uchiha uniform along with a black breastplate which covered his torso. "Oi, Naruto. How many wins and how many losses?" He asked cheerfully.

Naruto's eyes lazily focused on his friend as he replied "50-50."

Hideo grinned and activated his three tomoe Sharingan. "The contest this time is to see who kills the most Senju." He stated.

Naruto smirked and activated his own matured Sharingan. "You're on."

Suddenly, the two Uchiha heard a horn blaring out. "Prepare yourselves!" Tajima shouted from up front.

Out of a nearby forest, 2,000 Senju dashed towards them. "FOR THE SENJU CLAN!" Butsuma, the Senju Clan Head, shouted.

The Uchiha Clan gave a loud battle cry and Naruto leapt to the front of his kin. "FOR THE UCHIHA!" He roared while preforming a single hand seal. "Fire Style: Great Fire Annihilation!" He shouted and spat out a gigantic wave of flames that rushed towards the rival clan.

Butsuma looked startled and barked "Water Style users!" Several Senju dashed forward and went through hand seals and spat out an equally large wall of water that blocked the Fire Jutsu, filling the area with steam.

"Keep your eyes open!" Butsuma ordered.

Suddenly, multiple shuriken flew out of the steam and lodged themselves in the necks of ten of the Senju.

Naruto appeared in the middle of the Senju with a blur and viciously assaulted them with a barrage of deadly Taijutsu. He crushed the throat of one of them with a single punch and kicked another with enough force to snap their neck. "12 and counting! What's your score, Hideo?" He called out.

His friend decapitated a burly man with a kunai and grinned. "10. Don't worry, I'll still win!" He shouted back while incinerating two more with the Phoenix Flower Jutsu.

After several minutes, the Uchiha gained the upper hand despite losing several members. Naruto just finished killing 10 of his enemies with a single Fire Jutsu and turned his head. "100! How many do you have? Huh?" He trailed off as he saw his friend, who lost his armor, get impaled though the chest by a katana-wielding Senju. "HIDEO!" He screamed in horror and swiftly planted a kunai into the Senju's neck. Naruto ran up to his friend and dropped to his knees. "Don't worry, we'll get you back home!" He spoke frantically.

Hideo began to laugh weakly as blood trickled down his chin. "I don't think so...I've...got 100 too...by the way." He noticed that an enemy was sneaking up behind Naruto and threw a shuriken into their forehead as a final act of defiance. "101...I...win..." He whispered before finally passing on.

The sounds of battle rung silent in the wide-eyed Naruto's ears. He began shaking Hideo's corpse and muttered tearfully "Wake up idiot...this isn't funny. Come on Hideo...we need to get you back to Aunt Tsukino..." He began to feel a stinging sensation in his eyes as an angrily screaming green-armored Senju appeared behind him with a sword raised into the air. Suddenly, the fallen blade was halted by an ethereal black ribcage that formed around Naruto. The Uchiha stood up and glared darkly at the remaining Senju. His Sharingan morphed into a spiral pattern forming from his pupil(Indra's supposed MS).

He didn't know how the words came to him, but he automatically knew what the technique was called. "Susano'o!" He roared as his eyes began to leak blood and the skeletal structure grew into a black armored figure that completely covered his body (Medieval Knight). A sword made of black flames appeared in it's left hand as Naruto bellowed "SENJU! PREPARE TO DIE!"

Tajima's eyes went wide at the sight and thought 'The legendary Mangekyo Sharingan! The secondary level only our ancestor Indra achieved! How did he unlock it?'

"RETREAT!" A wounded Butsuma screamed, causing his fellow clansmen to flee.

"None of you shall escape..." Naruto whispered ominously as the Susano'o raised the flame sword. "Blaze Style: Kagutsuchi..." He muttered and the Susano'o slashed it's blade, sending a wave of black flames forward that incinerated 20 of the remaining 500 Senju.

Fortunately for the Senju, Naruto's Mangekyo deactivated along with the ethereal construct as he passed out from Chakra Exhaustion. Tajima watched their rivals retreat and exclaimed "The Uchiha have won this battle! Collect out wounded and dead. We're coming home!", causing his clansmen to cheer.

[One week later]

Naruto snapped his eyes open and looked down to see Madara snuggling with him. He smiled and ran his fingers though his little brother's hair. He heard a cough and looked to the doorway of his bedroom and saw his father looking at him sternly. "How long was I out?" He asked.

"One week...not surprising considering how much chakra it must've taken to use the Mangekyo Sharingan." Tajima replied.

Naruto tilted his head. "Mangekyo Sharingan?" He questioned.

The older Uchiha nodded his head and replied "Yes. The Mangekyo is the fabled second stage of the Sharingan according to our sacred stone tablets. You awakened it during the last battle. You are the first person to do so since the first Uchiha, Indra Ōtsutsuki. Tell me...what is the last thing you remember before using it's powers?"

Naruto looked down and muttered "I remember feeling unbearable sadness and rage at Hideo's death..."

"I see...it appears that the intense emotions brought about by losing someone very close activates the Mangekyo. It's best that we tell everyone that it happened randomly...if they knew that losing someone very close to them was the price of the Mangekyo, they'd be killing each other left and right. Once you're better...you should work to master your powers. I'm glad you are okay sochi." Tajima spoke softly before leaving the room.

Naruto looked down at Madara and began running his fingers through the little boy's hair once more. "I'll master these powers...I'll use Hideo's gift to protect the four of you. Because I love you guys more than anything else in the world...this, I swear." He muttered seriously, unaware that Madara was awake and heard the entire conversation between him and Tajima.

[End]

[Ending: Shiawase Neiro by Orange Range]

So how was the first chapter?

The next chapter will finish off the Clan War Era and start the main storyline.

It will move kinda fast, as there aren't many important moments to cover other than the awakening of Naruto's Mangekyo along with two other events.

In regards to Naruto's Mangekyo, he has two canon powers and one original power.

Right Eye: Amaterasu & Blaze Style

Left Eye: ?

Both Eyes: Susano'o.

His original ability will be introduced next chapter. Little fact about it...it will be the strongest Mangekyo power in existence aside from Susano'o, though it's appearance may be weak it's pure power and the capabilities that come with it are devastating once mastered.

I don't know if anybody caught it, but Naruto is to Madara what Itachi was to Sasuke (When Sasuke actually loved him)

Anyhow, next update will be either my Naruto/DMC/RWBY story or I will upload a different story...I have a few excellent ideas floating around in my head...*Cough cough*Narutoisdantesson*cough cough*
