This story was originally from JiraiyaTheGallant. I have his permission, don't worry.

And Naruto was from Kishi.

Dammit, do I even own anything this chapter. At least I own some of the rest (Naruto still goes to Kishi).

Summary- We all know Naruto to be that idiot with a severe lack of inherent skill in the shinobi arts. One day, however, this all changes with the awakening of his bloodline, Hyōton. How will this alter the destiny of our beloved blond? Hyōton!Naruto. Strong!Naruto. Smart!Naruto.

Chapter 1- Discoveries

He was running. Running from all of the staring faces. The young spiky-haired blond would often wonder why they glared at him so. The eyes just seemed to bore endlessly into his soul as he walked around the village. 'Why do they hate me and call me a demon? I never hurt them.' The blue eyed kid couldn't possibly understand their misconceptions. All of his life, truth was hidden from him while those he trust gave answers shrouded in lies.

In reality, Naruto was the third jinchuuriki of the Kyuubi no Kitsune, the most powerful of the nine bijuu. The very same fox that decimated Konoha nearly six years ago on the day he was born, convincing people that the demon and boy were one and the same. His surrogate grandfather, the Hokage, would often lie and say he had no idea why the villagers hated the blond. He would remind Naruto that the civilians had illogical misconceptions and that they still were good people at heart. Good, but quick to find a scapegoat for the Kyuubi attack.

Even his parentage was hidden. Naruto didn't know that he was the son of Minato Namikaze, the Yondaime Hokage, and Kushina Uzumaki, or that one of his parents was distantly related to a clan in Kiri.

His relation to that clan changed his life.

This was the day when it happened.

He was running from the rare mob. Not in his recent knowledge were the attacks ever physical, but mob mentality increased the rage exponentially. It was the accelerant to a fire of hatred that burned in each one of their hearts. As opposed to insults, the group of fifty civilians now sought only the death of the one who they deemed 'Kyuubi.'

Pitchforks and torches were raised to the sky with loud drunken chants, a prayer to kami that the beast would finally die. Naruto's eyes widened as he saw the mob hot on his tail. If he learnt anything from being chased in the past, it was how to be quick and agile.

He ducked into an alleyway, using chakra to slightly improve his muscles. The mob screamed loudly and followed. Looking back, Naruto knew that they were only gaining on him, and he needed a way to get out of sight.

Honestly, the boy was more scared at this moment than he'd ever been before. He took a left. A right. The buildings flew by in a spectrum of dull colors against the night sky. He was panting with the effort but couldn't give up yet. He'd never give up. He saw his tattered white and orange t-shirt, knowing his minutes were numbered. The mob was getting closer.

And he was getting tired.

'I can't do this,' he thought. No, no he could escape. He could live another day and find some way to be appreciated by the civilians.

"Hey, demon!" A man in front shouted. He wore a chuunin flak jacket, a piece of clothing that scared Naruto to no end. He was being chased by a chuunin? How on earth would he survive this? "Get back here! You murdered my parents!"

He kept running, ducking behind a weapons store. It was hopeless. The tears threatened his eyes, and he made no attempt to hold them back as he ran further towards the outskirts of the village.

The mob took up a slurred chant of "Kill the fox! Kill the fox!" One threw a sake bottle at him, whacking him in the back. It shattered into a hundred pieces and stuck through his white and orange shirt, tainting it red.

Naruto passed more buildings. Slowly, he saw the appatments get shorter until they became the houses of the outlying Uchiha clan. There was a forest he could escape to, maybe, and he could lose them there. The mob was now thirty feet away, the chuunin deciding not to ruin everyone else's chase. Maybe if he just made it far enough, they'd turn around and go home. In the midst of running, his logic was faulty at best.

The houses flew past, then suddenly they were all gone, replaced by a forest. The lights of the village behind him, he was now trailed by a bright orange-yellow glow. Torches lit with fire.

"Thanks for dragging us here!" The chuunin laughed, thinking they could now kill the boy unopposed. "Now no one can stop you from squealing, you demon!"They were close now, the mob of enraged villagers. He tried to outrun them, he really did, but he was just a kid.

"Time to die!" The chuunin shouted, launching a kunai with his fingers. The black ninja tool was barely visible in the night, but Naruto could see it well enough to dive to his left.

Sharp pain cut through his senses. A bleeding gash covered his right calf with blood. He got on his knees and looked at the group, now stopped just feet from him.

"What's wrong?" smirked the chuunin. "Out of ANBU to defend you?" There were ANBU? Naruto didn't know.

He backed up, stumbling as far away as he could without getting him. He fell backwards into a small pond, drenching his back. The civilians all laughed at the scared six year old.

"Well, now you can die for real." The chuunin stepped forward until they stood two yards apart and drew another kunai from his pocket. He cackled sadistically as he cocked his arm back at threw it at Naruto's chest.

Time slowed as the kunai drew closer and the boy shut his eyes. He couldn't watch his own execution. He didn't want to die! He had given up so much just so he can live another day, even if it was off of cheap cup ramen. No, it wasn't over. The kunai inched closer as he subconsciously threw his hands in front of himself. The water moved, shooting right in front of Naruto, stopping a foot from his body. It was covered in a reflective, solid coating like a mirror.

Before they knew it, the kunai had bounced off of the ice mirror. Naruto, half shocked, passed out. He floated atop the lake, and the civilians looked at him with bloodlust in their eyes.

Suddenly, an ANBU appeared from the trees, chopping the chuunin on the neck. He wore a dog mask, indicative of Kakashi Hatake, a student of Naruto's father.

"I should have you all arrested!" He shouted in a rare bout of emotion. Kakashi hated how he couldn't protect Naruto. He tried to get close to the boy, but it just reminded the ANBU of his sensei each time. Then, he decided that he couldn't fail Naruto too, so he hid in the shadows, wallowing in his guilt. But he still had to be there to do his job.

"I should have you arrested!" One drunk man with a pitchfork countered. "For protecting the demon."

Kakashi glared at him under the mask. His hands formed a cross seal as he used kage bunshin no jutsu to create three clones. "You don't make any judgement." I will have you all tied up and sent to the Hokage. The chuunin there is surely going to be demoted," he added, pointing at the knocked out teenager.

The clones rushed over and disarmed the mob members. Almost twenty ran, but the rest chose to take their chances with the S-rank copy nin. They'd throw an obvious punch or swing at Kakashi, allowing him to brush it aside with a kunai. He grabbed one man's scyth and used it to knock away another's pitchfork.

He made quick work of the group, knocking out almost half and tying the rest to trees.

"I have to report this to Hokage-sama." He addressed his clones afterwards. "You three, start taking these guys to T&I. Im sure they can figure out what to do over there."

"Hai, boss," the clones chorused.

The silver haired man turned towards the passed out jinchuuriki. "Naruto, I hope your alright."

"Inu-san, you wanted to see me?" The Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, was an old man of fiftysome years. Apart from the wrinkly face, he was an awe inspiring man once known as the god of shinobi. And he was a grandfather to Naruto. When the kid needed help, he was there. When he needed a goal, Hiruzen could supply it. While not all his time could be spent on Naruto, he loved the kid's guts and happy-go-lucky personality.

"Its about Naruto." Hiruzen's eyes widened. "He was attacked by a mob of fifty villagers."

"WHAT!" Shouted the Kage. "How could this happen? Where were you, Kakashi? He is your sensei's son, you're supposed to protect him!" Kakashi looked down at the ground, upset by the truth of the old man's words. He failed Minato again. He couldn't even honor Obito's memory, much less his sensei's.

"I-I..."

"You need to protect him, Kakashi," he said softly, trying to calm down. "Is Naruto alright?" Naruto was a touchy subject of the Sandaime as well, since he thought he failed the boy on more than one occasion. He should have never told the civilian council that Naruto housed the Kyuubi.

"He is out cold in the hospital. It seems he avoided a beating though."

"It's insane that a mob can gather in this village for such an awful cause. I may need to impose stricter laws, as much as I hate going down that road. We tried to give them more freedom... but this happened." He put his head down on his desk which was covered in unfinished paperwork. This is what he deserves for deciding to work late. "Are the men who did this arrested?"

"Yeah. There was a chuunin, Riku Uchiha, who took part in this. Should he be demoted back to genin?"

"I can't. No matter how much I want to, the Uchiha are just looking for a reason to launch a political attack and usurp my power. This wasn't the only reason you came to talk to me was it?"

"No, Hokage-sama."

"Well, what is it?" He sighed, holding his head up with his hands.

"I think Naruto has the Hyōton bloodline."

A/N: That was Jiraiya's first chapter. I edited a bit, but the rest of it will truly be mine and only mine. I'll venture to say you won't notice much of a difference it writing styles, except mine might not be quite as angsty. That kind of stuff wasn't really in the chapter anyways.

Well, hope you liked it. Next chapter is up in like 30 mins. I'm editing.

Stay troublesome,
