Prologue - Before the Storm

It was a situation no one had expected.

It was impossible to comprehend what was happening.

As of now, only one person had the power to stop it.

"You are all too late," Orochimaru sneered. "Sasuke little by little is becoming mine."

Naruto clenched a fist. "SASUKE! Get up and fight, you baka! Are you gonna give up already! Sasuke, GET UP!"

"Heh, heh, heh,…pathetic dropout. A fool like you definitely wasn't cut out to be a shinobi after all. You can't even realize how impossible this situation is!"

Naruto glared so furiously at Orochimaru that his eyes began to water. "Who the hell gave you the right to tell me what I am, you fuckin' dumbass!" At this point, the red chakra surrounding Naruto had already taken the shape of the Kyuubi. "I will fucking kill you and crush you back to hell!"

"If you think it's so simple," Orochimaru teased. "Then come and kill me now, Naruto-kun."

Naruto knew that was just a dare; he had enemies daring him all the time. That didn't stop him, however, from mindlessly charging straight into Orochimaru.

"DIE, YOU BASTARD!"

"Fuuin Jutsu! Chakra Fuuin!"

Suddenly Naruto just stopped moving in the air and fell to the ground. And stayed on the ground.

"Wha…what's going on…?" Naruto groaned.

Orochimaru chuckled. "I sealed the chakra in your body. Not just your normal chakra, but the chakra of the Kyuubi as well. And since your killer intent was part of the Kyuubi's chakra, you no longer have the power, or desire, to kill me. Now, Naruto-kun, what are you going to do now?"

Naruto wanted to get mad…he really so desired to get mad right now…but for some reason, he couldn't do it.

Damn, thought Naruto. I want to save Sasuke, but…

You can do it, said a voice. Just open your heart. Open your heart…and submit…

"Now, where were we, Sasuke-kun?" Orochimaru could barely contain his glee. "Oh, that's right, we have to finish taking care of your memories…"

Immediately after Orochimaru breathed his last few words, something slammed into him hard, forcing his fall off the platform.

"What! What the-." And those were the last words Orochimaru ever said.

Through his now-terrified eyes, Orochimaru could see nothing but darkness floating over his eyes.

The darkness moved.

Orochimaru screamed.

Everything went black.
