In the Elemental Nations, there is a village that is enjoying a moment of peace and quiet in the night. Suddenly out of nowhere, there are sounds from multiple group of people yelling and  running in the streets. Today is the start of a tradition the village is hosting called the "Fox Hunts" that the village enjoys every year. Most of the people are mentioning on finding the "Demon" and revenge. In their hands, they are also holding anything that they could use as a weapon as well.

From an alleyway, there is a kid with sunshine blond hair with a small and thin deposition and a set of 3 whisker marks on each of his cheeks sneaking around and avoiding the mob that is wondering the night. He is just 4 years old and suddenly found out this evening that there are multiple groups of people that are after him without him knowing their reasons why. Uzumaki Naruto is fleeing for his life after escaping a group who had just tortured him for 1 hour. He was lucky to find some leeway from the beating they were giving him for Naruto to take that chance to sneak away. 

Naruto although young, is exceptionally smart and mature for his age. He has had to mature to survive from his unfortunate life. He has known that the village citizens have directed anger and disgust towards him although he doesn't understand why he is hated when he hasn't done anything. He was able to hear from the orphanage that kicked him out and the mob that he keeps chasing him call him "demon" or " evil fox". But what he doesn't understand is why they are calling him that as well as why they are attacking him so aggressively!

(Naruto POV)

Still running with injuries that have already started to heal, I started to head to the outskirts of the village. "Why....Why is this happening to me." I started to sob while holding my arm that still has a huge bruise from a rock that was thrown at me from the last attack. "What did i do for them to hurt me. Why did I get kicked out from the orphanage on my 4th Birthday?!" Naruto started to cry on his knees tired.

I made it to a secluded part of the village that I was sure that no one visits and decided to rest after running for so long. Sadly I didn't notice or feel the barrier that I was able to bypass. I slowly walked for a few minutes until I came to a large compound with a unique Red swirl symbol engraved on 2 large doors. It looked majestic to me. "What is this place?" I started to go around the compound with wonder and weary eyes. "This isn't a place I have ever seen on my walks or my time searching for food in garbages." He has been been looking for food after starving from the orphanage since he was able to walk at 3.

'Why do I feel so drawn to this location though?' I thought. 'Well can't hurt looking around. Its better than getting beatings and having near death experiences i have had to go through these past years so let's go check it out.'

Coming to the door, I was about to knock when some of my dry blood from my bruised arm fell from my hand and landed in front of the door. As soon as it touched the ground, there was a sound of a door unlocking and magically the large doors started to open.

'Thats amazing!' I started to to walk in slowly and passed by the entrance only for me to hear that noise again so I turned around. The doors are now closed behind me. 'Well there goes my exit.' Walking in, I came across to a large and open patio that seemed a bit old but beautiful to look at. It looked like it hasn't been touched for years but at the same time looked tidy and beautiful. It had a large grown Bonsai tree in the center with it being surrounded by a medium size Koi pond. There are almost pure white steps leading up to a large mansion.

The Mansion itself was beautiful and breathtaking. It had a mix of black and wood walls with black outlines around doors and windows. From the outside, it looked like it is two story tall with hard looking tiles on the roof.

Naruto amazed, went to the door but noticing the door unlocked, decided to just go inside. What he noticed was a surprisingly humble interior. In the middle of the living room there are a set of Maroon couches facing each other with a clear glass coffee table in between with each couch facing West and East. On the North was a large 70" TV hanging on the wall. The floor has a beautiful clean charcoal brown wood flooring and the walls were a darker shade of white. On the South was a large fireplace with portraits and trophies that are above said fireplace. I went up to one of the pictures to see who lives here only to see a surprising sight. 

In the picture that I was holding are 2 people that I at least was able to recognized one of them. One is a beautiful lady with long crimson shade hair and blue cerulean eyes wearing a black undershirt with an anbu jacket and loose black anbu pants. She has 2 pouches, one on her left side of her hip and taped also on her right leg. Behind her was a a 2 foot long Katana with a white and gold braid adorning the handle guard. It also had a design of a dragon on a white sheath. Next to her is a man with a familiar blond hair and light blue eyes. He is wearing a long sleeve blue shirt and jonin jacket over it and blue ninja pants. One big feature that made me wide-eyed is the long Hokage cloak with red flame-like pattern on the bottom part of said cloak.

"I'm in the house fo the Fourth Hokage?!" I yelled. 'What do I do?! I shouldn't be here!' While Naruto was going crazy, he didn't notice a low growl in his mind. A large seal appeared on his stomach and voice was heard, almost sounding....nostalgic . "So he finally found their home. I really hope he sees the room they made for him..." said the deep voice. 

"Well i'm already here so might as well look around." I say with a sigh. I started to head to the second floor after seeing everything else was still in good condition in the first floor. On the first door coming up, it looked like a guest room. It had a queen size bed with White sheets that just looked very comfy to lay in. Shaking my head of the thought, I head to the third room after the second looks just like the first. In there I see a large King size bed with with maroon covers. On the back of it had a Dark brown wooden headboard with a fox engraved on it. Hanging on top of the headboard is a picture of the couple over it. Knowing it's the master bedroom, I close the door and go in the next door. What i see makes me have so many questions, but also makes me start to cry and tear my heart apart....
