Naruto: Restart

Chapter One - Prologue

The blond haired baby's big blue eyes, full of innocence, looked into his scared father's eyes as he was placed into a crib which was situated in the middle of a sealing bed. The tiny boy could hear the screams of pain, fear and power; all from different places. He could see the bright colours of the night, the moon glowed eerie red, the sky – deepest of purples – and the green of the beautiful nature. The boy could see the raw strength – now free – that he was so accustomed to, from in the dark and dreary womb, light up the sky with scarlet power that would eventually be known as chakra. The chakra was from a ginormous blood red fox like monster with nine tails, its size could easily be comparable to a mountain if not bigger. His mother was kneeled on the ground, holding off the giant red beast with chakra chains. The beast was stronger than anything the baby had ever felt in his 15 minutes of life, though the beast's power was the same as the chakra he had been familiarised to in the dark, colourless – black – world he was freed from. His mother suddenly lost control of her chains and the beast used this chance to finally kill the cursed family.

"Hinata!"

The big blue eyes of the young man widened in fear as his fiancée was stabbed in the stomach; then expanded even more, as if his heart was tearing into two as the sword was pulled up with such force that it ripped out of the young woman's should, cutting her into two. The man started shaking at the sight, his mind shutting down; yet he could only dream of stopping what he was doing to mourn for her death, if he did, he would soon be following her in a much more painful way.

Unfortunately, he did flinch. He looked away from his own fight even if it was only for less than a second; it sealed his fate.

His once upon a time best friend used this distraction to finally take down the blue eyed young man.

"Chidori!"

The man turned back just in time to see the bright glow of blue of the raiton (lightning) Jutsu only millimetres from his golden chest coming from the hand of his best friend who was covered in his illusionary blue and red body of Susano'o. Time slowed down for the man, he could hear the chirping of a thousand birds over the sounds of war and was glad that at least he wasn't going to die with fighting in his ears and the copper scent of blood in his own; Chidori would numb that all out with its specific noise and scent.

The baby with the big blue eyes could see it happening before it even started; his mother lost control of the scarlet beast that light up the sky with pain and fear by its roar as it realised what his parents were planning for the monster. Its clawed hand came swinging towards the boy, aiming for his heart. His father was in the middle of the odd hand signs for a seal that would eventually be known to all as the Dead Demon Seal that would end his life when he saw the murderous attack aimed for his newborn son. His mother was breathing heavily with exhortation on her hands and knees facing the ground; her body was tense and muscles were being readied to jump if needed again despite her fatigue. It was now when she saw the scarlet nine tailed beast's daggered hands aiming for her son.

Visions of his parents jumping into the way of the claw and being stabbed in the their stomachs, their life's blood exploding from their bodies, only stopping it centimetres from his neck went past his big blue eyes before the event could even happen.

His parents were only just up to jumping...

'Naruto.'

The young man's big blue eyes glazed over as he entered his mindscape for the last time. Now he was seeing the sewer lines and the mysterious waters that had always depicted his landscape. He could hear the rush of the water going through the pipes rather well for a dying person, or perhaps he was just imagining it.
