The Moyogan

1 - Awakening

Naruto was leaving the training ground after being told to go home by a wandering shinobi. It was his birthday, October 10th. Most people, however, knew it only as the Kyuubi Festival. Naruto had experienced a few bold people on these dates, once when he was 5, but Dog had saved him from physical harm. He was now, however, a ninja. His guard was still omnipresent in the village but was lessened greatly due to the badgering of a few old coots.

'The ANBU are leaving... there must be an altercation at the festival.' Naruto continued to his apartment, this time being sure to run faster than any civilian. 'Last time I made the mistake of walking...' Naruto remembered the stack of corpses, villagers trying to attack him, only to be slaughtered by ANBU.

Naruto was leaping from roof to roof, never slowing down. He noticed a large group in front of his apartment and sighed. He left to the only place he knew no one would be stupid enough to touch him.

ANBU Headquarters.

Naruto may not be the brightest, but he's always aware of where and when to run. He normally wouldn't go to the headquarters, as it was frowned upon by the ANBU there. He hadn't however, been given a Genin team yet, due to the bickering of the council trying to gain power.

Naruto was jumping from tree to tree, moving in patterns specifically for evasion. Naruto was a natural sensor thanks to the fox, and knew he was being followed by some very skilled, very hostile people. Naruto could feel the intent to kill rolling off of them.

He continued to run, faster now. He could finally get a feel for their chakra. Mid Chunin and Low Jonin. He was in the process of changing direction when a kunai shot into his leg. He fell to the ground, trying a pointless attempt to run with it still in his leg. It had perfectly severed his Achilles tendon.

"We got you now demon." Naruto glared with every ounce of hate he could at the four ninjas he saw in front of him. Three mid-chunin and one low Jonin. Must have been an old squad or something.

"Three Chunin and a Jonin... all for a teamless Genin," Naruto smirked at their enraged faces. Another kunai pierced his other leg. "You're no Shinobi, Demon!" The three Chunin all through kunai into his shoulders, elbows, and wrists. Naruto gave a loud grunt of pain. "We should kill it while we have the chance!" One of the Chunin spoke.

"No. It should suffer. Besides... with your teammate here, a natural sensor, everything will be fine." The chunin sighed, but wouldn't turn down the opportunity to torture the target of his hatred. He pulled out a Tanto standard ANBU grade. He walked over to Naruto and began his work, starting with his arms.

Naruto's pupils shrank and his screams were heard for miles. The blade dug into his tanned flesh, less cutting than ripping. "I made sure it was dull to make this even more excruciating." The Chunin began to giggle, soon turning into manic laughter. "I can't kill you... I should make sure there's never another one of you instead!" One of the chunin put a hand on his comrade's shoulder. "Let me... I've been wanting to do something anyway."

The two switched spots as Naruto began to fight with everything he had, chakra-infused grip trying to cut to rope... only for it to be reinforced by basic fuinjutsu, something never taught to him by the academy. Instead, he pushed all of his chakras into his legs and kicked. The chunin screamed in pain. "It broke my arm!" The Chunin just kept screaming in pain at the shattered bone. The Jonin had had enough. "I'm just going to kill you, Demon. I'll finish what my comrades started, what the fourth started."

Naruto, at the mention of the fourth, grew rapidly enraged. He knew parts of the truth, not enough to know his origins, but enough to respect the man like a father anyway. Naruto's eyes began to glow. A kunai was plunged into his pelvis. His iris began to shit color. Another kunai was plunged into his shoulder. The transformation finished.

The kunai flung out of his body at the influx of power, the fox's power. The ropes suddenly snapped from his hands. Naruto was healing rapidly, as per usual, but it was obvious that more important areas were being healed first. It was like all of the chakras had a mind of its own.

Naruto glared at the jonin and chunin and just flared with chakra with everything he had. That was enough to get 4 ANBU on his location in seconds.

"I was attacked by these three. I'm only alive and well because of a sudden burst of chakra." He looked to Dog, his most trusty ANBU. "It's good to see you, Dog." Dog nodded and patted Naruto's head.

"Why don't you and cat head to ANBU headquarters while we take care of them?" Naruto nodded. The second he did, both Cat and Naruto disappeared.

"Now I hope you're ready for the punishment of hurting my surrogate little brother?" Dog had killing intent rolling off him in waves. The four shinobi were shaking.

Needless to say... Dog gave them their punishment properly, and permanently.

Meanwhile in ANBU headquarters...

Naruto and Cat were sitting in a plain room. Naruto was looking at Cat strangely. "Ne, Cat! What's that weird tattoo on your arm?" Cat's gaze shot up to Naruto.

"You can see it?" Naruto nodded. "It's an ANBU tattoo. It has inbuilt genjutsu for wiping civilian minds, alongside a chakra beacon for when ANBU are seriously injured or killed." Naruto nodded attentively.

"Thanks for telling me. I haven't seen it until today. I've felt it, but I'm pretty sure it's common knowledge that I'm a chakra censor." Cat nodded and was about to speak again when she noticed a slight color in his eyes.

"Naruto I need you to look at me in the eyes. I need to see your eyes." Naruto rapidly grew concerned and he looked at Cat. She looked to find his eyes were a brighter shade of blue. The white of his eye was still normal. The difference in his iris quickly became more apparent when she saw the dark blue teardrop shapes through the outermost iris.

Thus bringing the next change. A second iris, a ring of white encasing the third iris. The white was a clearer shade than the rest of the eye. The third and last iris is yellow in appearance and is much slimmer than the rest. Lastly is the pupil. A small pool of what seems to be space itself.

"That-!" Cat was cut off by a certain elder.

"-Would be the Moyogan." Naruto looks over and sees a face half covered in bandages, alongside a missing arm in baggy robes. "My name is Danzo Shimura. I'm a friend of your Jiji's." Naruto gave a small bow, making sure to be respectful to the newcomer.

"We have much to talk about." Danzo ushered Naruto to follow him. The two walk to an isolated room and begin.
