Author's note-Hey there, before you read this story I would like to point out that the idea is not mine, rather it belongs to a fic created by another author 10TailedKishinAsura. The original fic was absolutely brilliant but was discontinued. There is also another fic that was equally as amazing but it's probably discontinued as well so I decided to take it upon myself and try to write a story that contains elements of the previous two stories but with major differences in order for it to be more original. Also, in this fic Naruto is not godlike or overpowered, those kinds of stories are prevalent in neglect or abused fics and honestly i'm pretty sick of that so sorry to whoever is a fan of such fics. And the academy will start at 8 and end at 16 years old.

Disclaimer-I do not own Naruto obviously.

The bleeding figure of an 8 year old boy was piled in a dumpster at the heart of the red-light district of Konoha. This boy is Naruto Uzumaki Namikaze, son of possibly the strongest Ninja's in the entire elemental nations, Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki, The Yellow Flash and Red Death. And he was in a world of true suffering and agony from the vicious beatings or as locals call it, the fox hunt.

Why is this so? Well, this is due to the simple fact that unlike his younger siblings Natsumi, Menma and Mito, who contains the Yin, Yang and Soul of the beast respectively and the fact that he was made a scapegoat by his own parents who announced that he contained the Kyuubi after the attack from the Nine Tails in order to protect their 'precious prince and princesses.' forsaking their eldest in the process. This lead to the villagers venting their anger out on the poor blond. Not that he is aware of this fact but had always wondered why he was despised so greatly by his villagers and why his parents neglect and forget that he had even existed.

Choosing not to linger in fear of another mob. Naruto groans in pain as he attempts to slowly climb out of the dumpster. His malnourished and petite frame visible to all through the cuts and tears from his blood soaked shirt.

Limping home in agony and through the front door, he proceeds to scan the area with his dull blue eyes. A practise he had adopted after once returning home only to be greeted with the furious facial expressions of his parents and the horrid beating that occured right after. After confirming the absence of his parents, he silently made his way up the stairs while attempting to hold back his urge to cry out in pain due to the beating. Making his way into his barren wasteland of a bedroom, our blond hero immediatley turns to lock the door, bandage himself up with some medical equipment he had once stolen from a hospital. Changes into a new set of clothes before falling into his hard mattress and drifting off to bed.

Suddenly waking up in a mysterious town. Naruto could only panic in worry as he viewed the area, the buildings were much more different from the ones at the village, the people wearing something similar to the civillians yet with a different design with the more well dressed men wearing a strange black hat as their wives accompanied them with expensive looking jewellery while the common person wearing a more ragged light brown set of shirt and pants. The soldiers attire however was completely different from that of a Konoha Shinobi, they wore either a blue or red uniform along with an odd looking hat similar to that of the ones the well dressed men were wearing with the difference being the beads hanging off their hats. The soldiers were also armed with weaponry Naruto had not seen before. Unlike the mobs of civillians and ninja who chased him everyday, these men were armed with either a unique looking katana or spear along with a bow or odd looking staff with a trigger and a hole on it's end.

However, the one thing that Naruto feared the most was the fact that he was unable to understand the language these people were speaking, it was similar to his native tongue but was so much more different at the same time.

All of the people stared at him in confusion, some speaking to a soldier while pointing at him, prompting a group of soldiers to walk to Naruto with caution and a crowd to form.

("Child are you all right?") One of the soldiers asked.

("Do not fear, we will take you to a doctor just come with us.") Another soldier said.

(What's with his hair?) A man from the crowd asked curiously.

Naruto however stood still. Stunned as he was unable to conjure up a response due to his non existent knowledge of the language.

("Prehaps he is a foreign child?")

("Obviously you fools, all of you realise this now? Seriously?") A soldier in red asked the crowd in disbelief before continuing. (Do you understand me?) The man asked in a different language from the one he was originally speaking. ("You are not chinese?") He asked.

"Japanese then?" The man finally replied in the language Naruto understood.

"N-no I-I am from Konoha." Naruto replied nervously.

"Konoha? Elemental nations?" The man asked again.

"Y-yes sir." Naruto replied, still nervous.

"I see. Around Kyushu then?" The man asked.

"I-I don't know where that is, I-I don't even know where this is." Naruto stuttered.

"You are in another land."

"What village is this?"

"No, not village. Another land, a foregin country."

"W-what country is this then?" Naruto asked with slight fear.

"You are in Joseon." The man replied. "You are in the Hanyang province to be exact."

"Hanyang?! W-what?! Kami i'm in some random province?!" Naruto screamed out in panic.

"Now calm down young man." The man said to Naruto. "Let's try to find your parents ok?"

"Oh, oh Kami I-I gotta get out of here!" Naruto exclaimed in panic as he ran off only to find himself falling off a cliff and into a sea."

"Oh Kami no!" Naruto screamed out before hitting the water.

"Gah!" Naruto exclaimed only to find himself on his bed, drenched in water and his cousin, a branch member of the Uzumaki clan and someone he had regarded as a brother unlike his so called 'siblings' standing before him with an empty bucket. A smirk plastered all over his face.

"Jeez Naosuke? Did you really have to do that?" Naruto asked with fusturation.

The young man standing before him, now known as Naosuke replied with amusement. "It's either that or allowing me to hear you scream in terror."

"Good point cousin, but maybe shaking me would be fine next time?"

"You think i didn't try that?"

"Oh. Well this has been an awkward sleep." Naruto chuckled out nervously.

Naosuke, his smirk faltering, replaced with only curiousity asked him in slight concern. "This dream seems different than the others, what was it?"

"You'll think i'm crazy if I tell you."

"Cousin I live in a huge compound where I am forced to serve the needs of the stuck up main branch only to find out that there's actually a half decent member of the head family present. Now if that's not crazy I don't know what is?" Naosuke replied in an amsed tone.

"Probably because I'm the most hated and unfavoured child of the Yondaime's entire family."

"Sorry for bringing that up." Naosuke apologised not realising the lack of sensitivity in his comment.

"It's alright, that's actually the nicest thing a relative of mine said to me."

As both boys share a chuckle, Naruto's expression turned slightly nervous as he asked his cousin. "Do you really want to know?"

Naosuke simply nodded in silence.

"Alright then." Naruto proceeded to tell him what had transpired in his dream, from every last detail. After concluding, he had expected his cousin to laugh but was suprised to see him shocked as if he was struck by a chidori.

"What was the language they spoke?" Naosuke enquired with curiousity.

"It kinda sounded like our own but was different." Naruto replied, still not understanding his cousin's shock.

"Kami." Naosuke muttered.

"Naosuke, is there anything wrong?"

Before Naosuke could respond, he was interrupted by the sound of Kushina's voice requesting all clan members gather at the main chamber of the compound.

"We'll talk later we have to go before Kushina realises that we're missing and decides to punish us."

"Why?"

"It's October 10th, the birthday of you and your siblings."

"Oh why does that day have to exist?" Naruto sighed as he changed into a fresh pair of clothes. "I don't even get breakfast for my birthday much less a gift."

"It's better than being having our faces smashed in."

As the boys made arrived to the main chamber, they could only stare in both envy and amazement at the mountain of presents for the triplets. Unfortunately, the sight of of the presents were not the only things that would worsen their already terrible day.

"Hey loser!" Menma yelled out. "Where are your presents oh wait no one loves you enough to even give you one."

"Forget him Menma nii chan, speaking to such a bug is beneath us." Natsumi sneered.

"I'm actually suprised that he even exists." Mito commented.

"Happy birthday Menma sama, Natsumi sama, Mito sama." Naruto replied, emotion not present in his tone, fully expecting such a response. He was also ordered to address his siblings with the sama suffix less he seeks to experience the punishment for not doing so.

Let's just say the only thing he got for his birthday that day was more taunts and insults.

Three puffs of smokes suddenly appeared, interrupting his train of thought.

The smokes dispersed to reveal the presence of a man with long white hair and red markings on his face along with a woman with a diamond on her head and a rather sizable bust and an unusually pale skinned man.

"Jiraiya Sensei, Orochimaru Sama, Tsunade baa san, you could have told me you were coming we would have prepared something for the three of you." Minato said.

"There's no need to do so Minato, we're only here to see our three favourite brats." Tsunade replied as the Sannin proceeded ruffle Menma, Mito and Natsumi's hair.

"The fucking Sannin." Naosuke sighed to himself. "They really know how to kill our moods huh?"

"Yeah." Naruto replied. The boys decided to make their way into the corner of the room as they listen to the idle chatter of the present guests.

After a loud happy birthday, cakes devoured and presents opened. Minato got the attention of the current guests.

"Everyone I have an announcement to make. Menma will be the heir to the Hokage position while Mito and Natsumi will inherit the titles of clan head of the Uzumaki and Namikaze clans respectively."

Upon hearing the shocking news, Naruto froze, only one thought coming into his mind. 'They...they threw me away.' Heartbroken at the relevation, Naruto ran out of the compound, the sound of the door slamming finally making them aware of the presence of their eldest.

"Minato kun what was that?" Orochimaru questioned.

"Oh, that was just Naruto, don't worry, he'll get over it soon enough." Minato replied. Not aware of how wrong he was.

'What is wrong with these people?' Naosuke thought angrily in his mind as he went after his cousin.

'Am I really that worthless to them? Worthless to the point I was disowned?.' Naruto thought in his mind, unaware of the mob who were slowly following him with their weapons drawn.

"Cousin behind you!" Naosuke shouted, prompting Naruto to turn around only to come face to face a group of bloodthirsty villagers and ninja alike.

"Prepare to die demon!" One villager yelled out.

"This is for the Yondaime!" Another villager screamed.

"We can finally rid the Hokage's family and of Konoha of this demon and his unholy follower." A ninja in crowd exclaimed.

"Kill the demons!"

"So this is my fate then? to die huh." Naruto sighed in despair.

"We can sulk about our fate like Neji later, we need to get to the gate quick." Naosuke said. "It's our only chance."

"R-right. I-I can't die just yet. Let's go!" Naruto exclaimed with newfound determination.

Running as fast as their legs could carry them. Away from the bloodthirsty horde. They could see the giant gates of Konoha drawing ever closer.

"Almost there cousin! Just keep running!"

"Oh Kami why?" Naruto questioned in horror. "Why do you hate us so?"

"What are you talking about?" Naosuke questioned only for the look on his face to turn into absolute terror as he turned to face the gate. Another mob was present at the village entrance armed and lying in wait for the duo.

"Nowhere to run demons!" A ninja from the other mob yelled out.

"Enough! Time to kill them!"

Seeing as there is no way out of the situation, Naosuke realised that there was only one thing left to do. It was to make a final stand, no matter how futile it may seem.

"This is goodbye cousin." Naosuke told Naruto in a sad tone.

"W-what are you talking about?" Naruto asked, dreading the response.

"Look at them, I can sense their killing intent, they are going to kill us today." Naosuke simply replied. "I rather it be me then the both of us."

"N-no, I-I refuse to allow this, your sister already died because of me, I can't take another loss of my family." Naruto told him in a firm yet sad tone.

"You know you can, cousin, this is the life of a branch member of a clan, sacrificed for the main house when needed." Naosuke lamented. "But at least, it was the life a main house member that I actually liked."

"Cousin." Naruto said in sadness, aware that this will be their final goodbye.

"There's a secret tunnel to the east of the village that leads out of Land Of Fire territory." Naosuke told Naruto as he readied himself for a fight he cannot win. "You know where it is now go, run as fast as you can and don't look back!"

"Very well then." Naruto reluctantly agreed, choosing to honor his cousin's final request.

"Goodbye...brother." Naruto cried out before running towards the exit.

"The demon's getting away!" One of the villagers yelled out only to be impaled by a kunai to the head.

'Looks like this is the first and last time i'll ever use a kunai. Heh, i'm oddly content about this.' Naosuke thought in his mind.

"You bastard!" A villager in the mob yelled.

"He killed my brother! Let's kill him!"

"Prepare to die demon worshipper!"

"For the Yondaime!"

"Alright then, you want me? Then come and kill me you bastards!"
