A.N: Hello! This is Makka no hane here. Just wanted to say hi to my lovely readers(hopefully) and thank you for reading my first ever fanfiction. Just so you know this Naruto fanfiction is AU so it will be slightly different from the original. Also, My Naruto version will be extremely OOC.
I kinda want to make him like Akira from Monochrome Factor( if you guys have watched it you know what I mean) for people who have never even heard of MF, it means I want to make Naruto aloof(in a funny way)and cute( unknown to himself)
WARNING: This fic will have boy/boy, it's mostly light shonen-ai stuff so I won't scar you for life lovely readers. If any of you have a problem with boy/boy love then I suggest you don't scroll down and read the actual story.
DISCLAIMER: Sadly I do not own Naruto, if I did however, there would definitely be some yaoi action going on. But I don't think I'll see that happening any time soon since Naruto belongs to
Masashi Kishimoto and not me.
~~So without further ado, let's get on with the story!~~
Tale of Crimson tails
Chapter 1: Tails of Beginnings
It was a lovely day in Konohagakure no sato. The Sakura trees were blooming and the village was full of laughter and happiness. Today was October 10th, the day the Kyuubi no Youko attacked the village. It was also the day the Kyuubi was "defeated" by the former Fourth Hokage, Kazama Arashi. And on the same day, at the exact time, a powerful nine-tailed Demon Lord was sealed into a newborn baby boy.
The boys name was Kazama Uzumaki Naruto.
( Known as Uzumaki Naruto by all, except the Third Hokage)
The babie's Father, the Fourth, died sealing the demon beast into his newborn son. The boy's Mother Uzumaki Kushina, abandoned him when she realized he had "killed" Arashi and completely believed he was the Kyuubi no Youko itself. The Third Hokage, now fully reinstated, tried to convince the woman that he did not "kill" Arashi nor was he the Nine-tailed Demon beast. But, of course, Kushina was blinded by her hatred and loss of her love. She even went as far as to say the three whisker marks on each of Naruto's cheeks were a sign that the Kyuubi had taken over her child, and that her child died the moment the Kyuubi was sealed inside of him. Thus, she concluded that that "monster" was not her child and took back the Uzumaki name and disowned him. She then fled to her home in the land of Whirlpool.
Thus, the boy had to grow up without his parents, without love, without acceptance, and with the villagers scorn and hatred of the Kyuubi. What most didn't realize was that as Naruto started to grow up, he noticed the look's the villagers always directed towards him. At the age of three he was already aware of the villagers hatred, and the reason for it. Naruto was aware of the dirty look's he received from the older villagers. The children of the village never played with him and constantly taunted and bullied him. Naruto assumed that their parents had told them to stay away from him and/or bully him, and so they took on their parent's hatred for the boy, even though they had no idea why the boy was hated in the first place...
Yes. Today was a lovely day in Konohagakure, today was October 10th.
Today was also Young Kazama Uzumaki Naruto's 4th Birthday
For the entire village, it was a time for celebration. The bustling streets were filled with food vendors and game booths, where you yourself got a chance to defeat the treacherous Kyuubi. There was also a play describing the Kyuubi's defeat by the Fourth Hokage. At the end of the festival there would be a enormous fireworks display. This festival lasted a whole weak. Yes, everyone was having a grand time. Well, except two...
In a rural part of the village
The first person who was not excited about today's festivities was currently meditating in his small run down apartment. Today was Naruto's birthday. If he was like any regular child, Naruto would be ecstatic about turning four. But, as we all know, Naruto is no ordinary child. No, Naruto disliked his birthday. For a whole week on his birthday Naruto would stay holed up in his apartment and wait patiently for some stupid villagers to try and ransack his apartment. And that was exactly what he was doing now.
'La..La la.. bum bum..Ba dun.. dun...' Naruto hummed in his head. Naruto quite liked humming to himself, it helped him concentrate and gave him entertainment at the same time. And he also wasn't the only one who found it entertaining.
'Ah... such a lovely melody. You truly are a genius, my beautiful kit.' mused the Kyuubi, teasing his kit.
' Kyuu darling, why must you tease me so?' Naruto asked, his voice laced in sarcasm. When Naruto first learned about Kyuubi he decided that since no one would ever give him all the facts about the attack and his family he would try asking the Great Demon Fox himself. He still remembered their first conversation... it was most interesting...
Flashback: Four Weeks Ago
He had finally found it. He now knew the reason behind the villagers hatred. It all made sense now. The villagers hated him because the most powerful Demon Lord Kyuubi no Youko, who killed many of the ninja and civilians, was sealed inside of him. What little information he had found in the library books spread across his bedroom floor stated that the Great Demon had been killed by the Fourth Hokage, which in Naruto's opinion was complete rubbish. How could a mere human, no matter how strong, defeat a Nine-tailed Demon Fox and a Demon Lord at that? Thus, Naruto concluded that the only way to get rid of the "Horrible Beast" was to seal it. And because of the Fox's extreme chakra, it could only be sealed into a newborn. Otherwise if placed inside an adult, the Fox's chakra would overwhelm the adult's already developed chakra and the Fox would be released. So the Fourth Hokage sealed the Fox into a newborn baby.
'Which apparently happened to be me...' Naruto mused. 'Interesting. So, if the Almighty Kyuubi-sama himself is sealed inside me... why don't I seek out a few answers, ne?
Since Naruto didn't quite know how to contact the Kyuubi, he simply relaxed himself, closed his eyes and immersed himself deeply inside his mind. When he opened his eye's he found himself in a particularly dirty, green lighted sewer.
" Well, this certainly is unhygienic." Naruto mused to himself. Naruto took the time to look at his surroundings. The water in the sewer was shin deep for Naruto. There were rustic looking metal doors tightly locked lining both sides of the corridors. Most of them were in worse shape than the others. Since it was his mind, Naruto concluded that the doors held his memories. And if he was correct, the ones that looked thoroughly mutilated probably held his most traumatic ones.
Deciding he should be getting back to the task at hand he decided to head for the Kyuubi... there was only one slight problem with that. To say Naruto's mind/sewer was large was an understatement.
It was huge. That posed quite a problem for young Naruto. How in the world was he supposed to find Kyuubi in this maze of a sewer?
'Well, it is MY mind we're talking about of course it's huge...hehe.. I made a funny.' Naruto giggled to himself. If anyone was with him in the sewer they would declare him mentally unstable. Which is not all that surprising, considering all of the things he had been through.
'Hmmm... I won't be able to find Fox-chan so easily in a place like this... Aah... I suppose I can do that...hehe' Naruto giggled to himself once again, a breathtakingly beautiful foxy smile spreading across his face.
Naruto inhaled as much air as he possibly could take in his tiny lungs and let it out in one ear splitting yell.
"OH AMAZING KYUUBI-SAMA! YOUR HOST IS HERE TO PLAY WITH YOOUUU~ ~ ~ !, he said in a sing-song voice. The echoing bouncing around the walls created the desired effect Naruto was looking for. Listening for any sign that he had been heard Naruto waited and waited. He was about to forge on and tackle his mind/maze once again when he heard a string of curses flowing from the end of the long corridor.
" DAMN-IT! F**K IT ALL! THAT HURT! WHO IN SHINIGAMI-SAMA DARES AWAKE THE ALMIGHTY KYUUBI NO YOUKO FROM HIS SLUMBER!"
Naruto followed the smooth, dark, booming voice. The voice led him to a huge open spaced area in the sewer. Substituting the wall that was supposed to be in the room was an enormous cage with the kanji for seal on it. In the middle of the cage stood a man. He looked around the age of twenty-four, he stood at about 6'5" with gorgeous elongated spiked crimson hair laying just in the middle of his chest. He had two pointy red fox ears atop his head with white tips. He had nine fox tails that were also colored crimson and tipped with white. He wore a traditional black yukata with the kanji for 'Nine-tailes' on the front and a beautiful fiery nine-tailed fox starting on the back and wrapping it's tails around the front , continuing to the very bottom of the yukata. All in all he was a very intimidating, handsome man. But of course, neither the Demon Lord's immense raw power nor his amazing looks fazed the equally breathtaking Jinchuuriki.
"Ah...that would be me... who else did you expect?" Naruto said, raising his hand. "I'm hurt Kyuu darling, were you expecting someone else?" Naruto pouted, he just met him, but he already loved teasing the older male.
" You insolent little fool! How dare you talk to me like that. Know your place, boy!" The Kyuubi yelled, wanting to instill fear into the boy. He wanted to test his kit's strength. So he also slipped a large amount of killing intent out into the air. Kyuubi watched his kit carefully. His head was bent down, his chin resting on his chest, as he stood completely motionless. Kyuubi now wondered that maybe, he had overdone it a little too much. " Kit- Kyuu started. Suddenly Naruto's head snapped up, what Kyuubi saw in those crystalline blue eyes instilled fear inside of him, him! The Nine-tailed Fox, Ruler of Makai and greatest of all the biju. Those eyes were filled with complete outrage and a large amount of insanity. The boy was leaking so much killing intent it could bring the Third Hokage himself to his knees. Kyuubi was even sweating a bit from the strain.
" You are the one who should know their place, you overconfident Fox! Naruto wispered menacingly.
Do not take me for a fool, I am the one keeping you alive! Show some respect!... I, on the other hand have no reason to respect someone who treats me as an "insolent fool" Naruto spat. He then huffed indignantly, and slowly the killing intent started to recede. Kyuubi released his breath and looked once more upon his fiery kit.
He really was a creature of beauty, With his beautiful golden hair that had streaks of a whiter blond running through. He had a stunning body that, once he grew fully into it, would be a knock-out. He had creamy light caramel skin, three whisker like mark's on each his cheeks( courtesy of Kyuubi himself) but the most amazingly hypnotizing thing about the stunning boy before him were his eyes.
A wonderful mystifying shade of blue that one could not put a name to it. His eyes were able to reflect his thoughts through a shade of electric cobalt, but then could easily hide them from view through a icy quality of gray.
There was one thing Kyuubi was certain of:
His kit was truly amazing.
" Listen, kit, I'm sorry. I was only trying to-" Kyuubi started, but Naruto cut him off.
" Test my strength, correct?" Naruto asked, with a raised eyebrow.
" W-what? You knew? Kyuubi sputtered disbelievingly. 'How in the world had Kit known that it was all a test?' "How?" the fox asked.
" I guessed" Naruto deadpanned.
" You... guessed?" Kyuubi asked, astonished.
" Yup. Anyway Kyuu, there's a reason I'm here." Naruto said, waving a dismissing hand in Kyuubi's direction. He looked up at Kyuu with his adorably wide foxy smile.
" I'd like to ask you some questions"
Present
In the end Naruto got most of his questions answered. He knew who his father was, he knew the true reason why Kyuu attacked the village, he also knew who controlled Kyuubi to do so. The only question Kyuubi refused to answer was about his mother. Naruto didn't know why, but he didn't push the issue. Kyuu said it would be better to wait until he was older to learn about his mother.
' Ah... that was an interesting memory was it not, Kyuu?' Naruto asked, giggling slightly.
' Indeed it was Kit, indeed it was.' Kyuubi said, chuckling lightly.
They were both enjoying each others company when Naruto saw movement from his single apartment window. It was a silhouette of a man. Naruto could tell by chakra signatures that there were three ninja. And by listening to the louder footsteps, that there were four civillians. Naruto glanced at his banged up alarm clock. It was only 5:37 in the evening.
' They came pretty early this year,huh? Kyuu. I'm kinda bored being locked up in here... shall we tease them a bit, Kyuu? Naruto asked gleefully. He always loved messing with the villagers minds.
' We shall.' Kyuu agreed, equally as gleeful. What could he say, he could never deny his kit. And it was fun on his part too. The two cackled evilly together. ' This should be fun.' they both thought.
A.N: Woo! First chapter done. I hope you all liked it. Reviews are always welcome. If you guys think I need to work on something or if you have any ideas to add to the story, let me know. Well I'll write for you soon, lovely readers. This is Makka no hane signing out, Ja ne! AAAAhhhhh! Wait, wait. Theres going to be a poll set up next chapter. I'm thinking of putting Naruto in a
one-sided relationship. Where one of the MALE characters will fall in love with Naru. Just so you know, I'm probably going to make this person extremely possessive and a little bit of a jerk. So don't vote for a male character you like. Pick one you don't like so you'll be pleased when they get humiliated. Okay, I'm done. Ja agian~!
