12 years ago, a Nine-Tailed Fox suddenly appeared. Its tails lashed out smashing mountains and sending tidal waves crashing to the shores. The Ninja rose up to defend their villages. One Shinobi faced the Nine-Tailed Fox in mortal combat. He sacrificed his life to capture the beast, and seal it in two human bodies This Ninja, was known as the Third Hokage.

12 years Later

A Young boy was running around the night time of the village known as Konohagakure no Sato or the Hidden Leaf Village. As one would think that the boy was running around playing, but if one pays attention to the details, why would a boy run in the middle of the night and a mob of villagers with blades and torches follow him? There is a simple explanation for that; This night was the night that the beloved Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi sacrificed his life to save everyone from the Nine Tailed Fox. But somehow the villagers believed the Fox was reincarnated in a form of a human male. That male was the Son of Minato Namikaze, the Fourth Hokage and his Wife, Kushina Uzumaki. Naruto Uzumaki.

The fear in the boy's eyes was beyond what a 12 year old boy should have to see or witness at a young age

The fear in the boy's eyes was beyond what a 12 year old boy should have to see or witness at a young age. People out to kill him.
"Help! Someone Help me!" Naruto shouted as he was hoping someone would help him. He made a wrong turn at a alley and found himself completely surrounded and no way to escape. The villagers slowly crept up at Naruto getting ready to hurt him. The boy didn't understand why they hated him and why it had to be on his Birthday.

"Why? What did I do?" Naruto asked as he was shaking.
"What did you do!? You killed My Brother!" One villager said throwing alcohol at his eyes, making Naruto scream in pain and cover his eyes. Another villager kicked him in his gut.
"YOU TOOK MY HUSBAND!" Another grabbed him by his hair and slammed his head to the concrete ground.
"YOU KILLED MILLIONS OF VILLAGERS YOU BASTARD!" they all began to rant and vent to Naruto in a most violent and torturous way possible. The beating and abuse was too much for the boy as he was unconscious mid way. His consciousness moved into his mindscape where he would be right by one of his little friends he managed to make. This friend was none other than the Nine Tailed Fox. Naruto would feel himself wrapped around the fox's tails. He looked up to see a giant red eye looking at him but not of anger or hate. It was more of sorrow and concern for him.

"KIT, HOW LONG WILL YOU LET THEM TREAT YOU LIKE THIS? THIS ISN'T FAIR. YOU HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING WRONG TO THEM." The Nine Tails said to Naruto as the boy sighed while wincing a bit. He may be in his mindscape but his actual physical body was feeling everything that the Villagers were doing to him.
"They don't know the truth Kuruma. And trying to explain to them the truth just makes them even more mad." Naruto said as he had tears out of his eyes. Kuruma tried to keep his tears together but couldn't and wept with Naruto until the beating was over.

Back in reality, Naruto would groan and wake up seeing that the Villagers were gone. He tried to get up but he felt his body in a lot of pain and was sore.
'KIT, TRY NOT TO MOVE. I'M ALMOST DONE HEALING YOUR WOUNDS' Kuruma said in his mind and Naruto stayed still for him. When he was done, Naruto was able to get up and seen it was still night time.
'I...hate this... Why? Why can't I be happy like my sister?' He thought to himself as he burst into tears but he dared not cry out loud. Who knows if anyone was hearing and wanted to beat him for no reason. After a few minutes of crying to himself, Naruto began to walk but there was a glare hitting his eyes and it would get his attention. He spots the source of the glare and walked to the trash cans. He moved it all out the way and spots a Gemstone of some kind.

"Whoa...what is that?" Naruto said as he picked up the Gem.
"Why would someone leave this here?" He asked to himself.
'I DON'T KNOW KIT BUT SOMETHING ABOUT THAT GEMSTONE MAKES ME SENSE SOME POWER IN IT.' Kuruma said to Naruto who was mesmerized by the purity of the stone. He then put it in his pocket and began to make way to his other hell called home.
"Whatever power lies in the stone, I don't care. It looks really cool to keep." Naruto said to himself before he arrived at his house and sighs softly before entering the house. There he was met with a spoiled snotty nose brat of a sister,

a angry mother and a disappointed father.

"And where were you the whole time young man!?" Kushina said with her hands on her hips.
"I...I...I was trying to find a birthday present for Naruko..." Naruto lied.
"And? Where is it!?" Naruko shouted.
"I...the villagers wouldn't sell me your gift...and proceeded to beat me up." Naruto said before Kushina slapped his face.
"WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT LYING!? THE VILLAGERS ARE GOOD PEOPLE! THEY WOULD NEVER HURT US!" Kushina shouted at him before proceeding to beat him. Minato just watched while slowly trying to hold his laugh of watching Naruto get beat and hearing him scream bloody Mary. Naruko wasn't any different as she cheered for her mom to punish Naruto. After Kushina was done, She hummed and rubbed her hands as if they hurt from beating him.
"I've had enough. Go to your room and don't bother coming out until I say so." She said and Naruto whimpered before scurrying off to the basement which was his room. It was a small basement but to him he didn't really care. All he needed was a futon, some sheets and that's it. His real room would be the Mindscape of Kuruma. As he made it safely to his room, he cried some more to the point no more tears could be produced as he has cried enough already from the villagers beating him. Kuruma in his mind couldn't help but get angry and no matter what has happened to Naruto, he knew this was beyond cruel especially for him being sealed over and over again.

'KIT, I'M SO SORRY...THIS IS ALL MY FAULT-' He started before Naruto shushed him.
"No Kuruma... it's not your fault...I don't want you to say those words." Naruto said as he sighed and took his dirty and bloody clothes off of his body and threw them on the ground. As he did, he forgot he had placed his gemstone he found in the trash in his pocket and it produced a soft thud. This got the young Uzumaki's attention and went to go get it from out his pocket. He seen that it was glowing and he didn't know how it did that.
"Whoa...Kuruma, are you seeing this?" Naruto asked.
'YEAH KIT. IT WASN'T LIKE THAT WHEN YOU FOUND IT.' He said before Naruto winced in pain a bit as the beating from Kushina made his body extra sore. Thus he dropped the gem and it hit the floor only to create a giant portal of some sort. Looking at it, it only showed as a rainbow colored swirl on the other side.

"What the!? What is that?' Naruto asked before he felt himself getting pulled over to the portal.
"Kuruma! What's Happening!?" He said trying to find something to grab onto.
'I DON'T KNOW KIT!' Kuruma roared before Naruto was sucked into the portal and it closed. Nothing but silence in the room of Naruto. Only thing left was the Gem.
