"Hello Kurama-san," Sarutobi greeted back.

"Naru summoned you because we need to know what happened to them to make them appear older."

"In that case, pull up a chair because it's a very long story."

(FlashBack)

A young girl with blonde hair, sky blue eyes and whisker marks on her cheeks was running, her clothes were in tatters, her body was covered in dirt and grime and she had no shoes. Naru Uzumaki, aged two ran from a mob of villagers, it was always like this, she had to fight for her life.

In her two years she had almost the same amount of near-death experiences as the most seasoned shinobi. She could barely walk when she was kicked out of the Konoha orphanage and had since then learned to live without adult supervision. While other kids were tucked in their beds by night, Naru was out scavenging for food hoping that no one would try to hurt her.

A three year old Sasuke was out of the Uchiha compound playing with the kunai he was given for his third birthday, he was waiting for his aniki who was out on a mission and couldn't be there for the Uchiha party but had promised to take him out when he got home. His ears pricked when he heard the sounds of a nearby fight. He had been told that he was to go to the academy when he turned eight and that his job would be to learn how to protect the villagers of Konoha. He just couldn't understand how someone could hurt other people inside their own village.

"Demon!" one shout in particular had him curious.

"Die so we can avenge our families!"

Sasuke snuck towards the fight making sure he made no noise as he walked. He hid behind a tree then snuck a peek on the brawl. His gaze landed on sky blue and they screamed for help. His hands moved without him knowing and he began to throw his kunai blindly. Two men went down but there were four more ganging up on the blue-eyed child they were beating. Sasuke killed someone, somewhere deep inside him he was aware of this but he was busy worrying about the kid they had been beating. Suddenly there was a swarm of ANBU and a blast of red chakra. The downed blonde began to rise, her eyes turning red with slits, the whisker marks on her cheeks becoming more pronounced as her canines elongated.

"Naru," Sasuke heard his aniki's voice. His big brother was there and he was talking to the girl.

"Calm down baby girl," Itachi coaxed the blonde.

"I'm here now," Sasuke saw his brother remove his ANBU mask and then the chakra slowly dissipated.

"Ita-kun?" the girl asked fearfully as the red energy went back into her body.

"Ita-kun!" she sobbed then launched herself at the man.

"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean it. T-t-they came out of nowhere... I was just looking for food."

"Don't worry baby girl," Itachi rubbed soothing circles on the small girl's back.

"You're not in any trouble."

"B-b-b-but I killed them!" she sobbed.

"It wasn't you," Itachi said.

"It wasn't your fault they're dead. They did this to their selves. But I do know who killed them," Itachi explained.

"Otoutou, why don't you come out of there?" he called out to the hiding boy.

"A-a-aniki, will I be in trouble?" Sasuke asked as he slowly made his way over to the pair. The young boy vaguely watched as the other ANBU took care of the bodies.

"No Sasuke," Itachi said.

"You won't get in trouble for protecting someone. Now come over here so you can meet Naru-chan."
