Hello everyone. I adopted this story from Uzunaru999. I will be editing the first seven chapters and posting them, as I get them finished. I'm mostly going to leave the chapters intact. I reworded a few sentences and fixed a few mistakes. I will start on new material with chapter eight.
Note: I do not own Naruto or any of its characters. This is for entertainment purposes only. Happy Reading, Please Review.
Chapter 1 Discovery (Redone)
-XXXXXXXXX-
"Shut the Hell up! I will become the strongest shinobi this world has ever seen. To be the Hokage is my dream," screamed the 10 year old boy at a bunch of bullies that where harassing him.
The said 10 year old boy's name was Naruto Uzumaki, the host for the nine tailed fox demon, also known as the Kyuubi, though he does not know that himself. Naruto so far has had a horrible childhood. He had been through hell and back. Naruto Uzumaki was beaten worse than the most intense interrogations, and more assassination attempts had been made on his life than most politicians. To the few people that watched over him, they were amazed that the boy hadn't snapped.
Now back to the present, "What are you going to do monster, bite me!" said the leader of the group of boys, saying the 'monster' as if it was poison. The other boys laughed idiotically with their 'leader.' Naruto smiled, "Nope I'm going to do something worse!" After he said that, he dropped 2 smoke bombs. The other boys coughed and rubbed their eyes. "Where'd that little freak go?" screamed the leader of the boys.
When the smoke cleared, the boys saw Naruto was a few feet away chuckling to himself. "What the hell's so funny Demon?" yelled the leader. Naruto flinched once he heard 'demon'. "Oh nothing, but, if I were you, I would not move from that spot." replied Naruto. "Why the hell should we listen to you? Let's get him!"
At the moment the leader and the others took a step, Naruto pulled on a string that he had been holding. Suddenly, every one of the boys and the leader's pants fell to the ground leaving them all embarrassed and disgraced. Naruto was watching their faces, and he could not control himself and started laughing, "Who's the loser now?"
After the boys left with their tails between their legs, Naruto actually heard a laugh from someone. He knew that it was a girl from the tone of the voice. Naruto looked and looked, but he could not find her. It was like she vanished. Naruto shrugged and went off to his hiding spot in the woods.
Once he got there, he looked around and sighed. He still never figured out how no one else before him ever found this place. The clearing was full of berry bushes, fruit plants and it had a single large apple tree in the center.
Naruto found the clearing one day, after being chased by a mob. Back then, the place was covered in weeds and tall grass. Naruto decided to fix the place, including adding more plants. The plants themselves were Naruto's only friends at the time. He took care of them and watched them grow with excitement.
There was one thing in the clearing that confused Naruto, and that was a decorated stone tablet. On the stone tablet were some pictures and names. The pictures themselves dictated an epic battle between a giant fox and a toad, with what looked like a man on top. There were many names, but Naruto hadn't heard of most of them.
"Now that brings back some bad memories." Naruto jumped and looked around franticly for the source of the weird and enchanting voice. "Where the hell are you? Show your self!" Naruto screamed as he looked around. The thing that really unnerved him was that he had put traps all around the clearing so that if someone came to close they would get hurt, blown apart, zapped, burnt, or drenched in skunk fluid (don't ask how he got it).
"Oh look, the little kit can finally hear me." giggled the voice. Naruto was getting mad at this point and yelled once again, "Show your self or you'll be in a world of hurt!"
"Oh and what could a little kit like you ever do to me?" This Time Naruto noticed a hint of anger in the mystical voice.
"Ok, Ok, I'll stop, but can you at least show your self to me?" Naruto asked in a shy voice. The enchanting voice responded in a more calming and comforting tone.
"Very well, I'll show you, but you must stand perfectly still." Naruto didn't understand, but he did what the voice said. The next thing he knew, he was passed out, and he hit the soft earth.
Naruto woke up in a sewer-like hallway, 'Where the hell am I?' thought Naruto. Then he heard the soft and mystical voice again, "Over here little one."
So Naruto followed the voice and found himself in a gigantic hall, with fox sculptures and pictures every where. Then Naruto noticed a huge cage with a seal on it.
"Are you in there?"
"Yes, I am little one." Just then 2 huge red eyes, with slits for pupils, opened up. Naruto almost screamed, when he saw this, but, instead, he just took a few steps back.
"Who and what are you, and where am I?" asked Naruto in slightly trembling voice. "Let me answer your last question first. You are in your own mind right now. "
'My own mind that's impossible!' Naruto thought. "As for your first question, I am the Kyuubi, also known as the nine tailed demon fox."
"Wait the 4th killed you! What are you doing inside a cage in my mind fox?" Once Naruto said fox, the Kyuubi's eye twitched. Naruto noticed this and backed up a couple more steps. "My name is not Fox you insolent, disrespectful kit!" Naruto was pushed back a few feet, when the Kyuubi yelled. Then Naruto asked, "Then what do you want me to call you?".
The Kyuubi was surprised no one in many, many years has asked for a name, "It has been a long time for me, but let me show you my other form, before I answer your question." Then there was a swirl of red, and then what stood before Naruto almost gave him a nose bleed for the records. Before him stood a naked woman with nine tails, fox ears and whisker marking just like Naruto, "Put some damn clothes on!"
The Kyuubi looked down and remembered that humans had the stupid tradition of wearing cloths to cover them selves up, "All right you silly little kit you can look now." 'Damn she's hot,' thought Naruto as heturnedaround to see the Kyuubi's other human like form. (Yes, I made the Kyuubi a girl, so sue me.)
Naruto still had a nose bleed, when he turned around. The Kyuubi was now covered in a dark red fur that still left little to the imagination. "I guess that will do", said Naruto as he looked the Kyuubi in the eyes.
Then Naruto asked the question, "So will you tell me your name now?" The Kyuubi looked Naruto in the eye and said, "My name is 'Aikan Abareu.' "(Beautiful woman/to act violently')
Naruto stared at her with a blank face, "Would you mind if I just call you Karei? (Karei means beauty)"
She looked at Naruto with amusement, "Ok kit, I will accept the title Karei."
Naruto scratched the back of his head, "Will you please tell me why you're in my mind? I thought that the 4th killed you?" Karei lowered her head and muttered something before looking back up.
"The 4th couldn't kill me for I am a demon, and therefore immortal. So the only thing he could do is seal me inside of you when you were born." Naruto's face contorted with anger, his fist clenched. Then his entire mindscape started to shake from Naruto's rage.
"Why did he pick me? It's because of him my life has been so f***ed up! So tell me why did he pick me out of all the other children? WHY?" Naruto was breathing heavily and a few tears were going down his cheeks.
"I am sorry kit, but I can't tell you that. I made a promise. I don't break promises. You should also never break a promise. Remember this, "Never back down, never break a promise, and protect your loved ones with your life." Remember this kit. When one protects those they love, that's when you become your strongest. Now it is time for you to go. Don't worry. I'll be in touch."
Naruto woke up to a glittering sky full of stars. 'Oh I really hope that was just a dream.' Suddenly Naruto heard the giggle from Karei as she said, "Sorry kit but that wasn't a dream." 'Ugh, will I have to listen to you every day now?'
Karei retorted, "Yes, yes you will." She giggled to her self once again.

The next day Naruto went to see the 3rd Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi. "Hey Old Man, I have a very important question for you, and I am not leaving until you tell me!" Hiruzen looked up from the most evil thing known to Kages, paperwork. He pulled out his decorated pipe and lit it. He waved everyone out and looked at Naruto, "What is it you want to ask me Naruto?"
"I want to know if there is a connection between the Kyuubi and me. I found out that my birthday was the same day that Kyuubi was defeated. I think there is a connection, because everyone calls me demon! I want the truth for once!"
Before Naruto could do anything else, a shadow appeared behind him and hit him on the neck. Naruto promptly fell to the ground with a dull thud. Hiruzen stood up and waved his hand. The ANBU, that knocked Naruto out, picked him up and they started walking.
"You knew this day would come, right? Sooner or later, you should tell him. Imagine if another person, say Mizuki from the Academy, decided to tell everything to Naruto. You should tell him before someone else does, and he goes crazy, feeling betrayed. You should tell him the truth for his safety and the safety of the village Hokage-sama."
"I know I should Kakashi, but I'm afraid he will go crazy. I was planning to tell him once he at least got out of the Academy. It seems I don't have the luxury. Lets ask him who told him, deal with them, and, if Naruto asks again, then we will tell him."
"I say tell him now. The council is putting enough pressure to kill him, as it is. The only ones that don't want to kill him are a few clan heads. Surprisingly, I found out that Hiashi secretly gives Naruto money, so he can at least eat descent food and have cloths. On the other hand, you were lucky enough that Danzo backed down and didn't turn Naruto into a weapon."
Hiruzen finished what was left in his pipe and said, "Let's get this over with."
