One - the meeting

Just beyond the village of Konohagakure also known as the village hidden within the leaf is a forest that many believe that a race of demons known as the Jinchuriki exist. Nobody within Konohagakure have ever seen these creatures as they believe that these beasts are nothing more than a myth and legend. Unknown to the villagers is that this demon race truly exist as they often keep to themselves and hide from the humans. But it doesn't stop some of them hunting down these Jinchuriki for their valuable pelts and tails. It was near the end of fall and the start of winter as Naruto wondered around his forest home gathering food for the winter. Naruto was far different from his Jinchuriki breathern because he was hanyou, half human and half demon. Naruto beared the traits of both as it was clearly visible that he was a cross between the two. Naruto's father, the lord of the forest, the nine tails kitsune, Kyuubi forebidded that his kit would be treated any different from that of his own kind. Even though the Jinchuriki feared humans, they tended to treat Naruto with the same honor and respect they showed to his father. Naruto looked in someways to what a centaur looks like except instead of his lower half being one of a horse, it was that of a fox. Naruto's fur was mostly a dark fiery red color with the tips of his tail, ears, and paws of his feet where a snow white color. Orange and golden yellow hairs hanged in between the two layers. Naruto's hair was a medium length as he wore it longer in the back than the front as the golden blond spikes hung loose around his face. His blood red slitted eyes glowed softly as he had three whisker marks scratched across his cheeks as he looked to be about ten years old in age. Naruto padded around the wood as his fox ears twitched on top of his head listening to the various sounds. In his clawed Caucasian hands he held a blanket like a bag as he stuffed the food that he found inside. It was turning to be far colder as he shivered slightly.

'This winter is going to be far harshier than the other years. I hope that I have found enough food for everyone.' Naruto thought to himself. As Naruto reached a clearing he saw a small blanket with a buch of various fruit and vegtables on it. Every year around the same time the people of Konohagakure village leave a small tribute to the Jinchuriki thanking them for the safe passage throught the woods and for keeping their boarder safe. Naruto gently put down the blanket that he was carrying as he carefully sniffed the area. The clearing was large and open as it would offer no protection to the Jinchuriki. Naruto knew that the people of Konohagakure wouldn't lay a trap for those of his kind but the same thing couldn't be said for trappers and/or hunters. Once Naruto had determined that the coast was clear, he slowly headed out of the clearing as his fox ears remained perked up listening carefully. Naruto's four fox tails twitched nervously as the Jinchuriki hanyou felt like he wasn't alone. Naruto was within arms reach of the blanket as he began to visibly relax. 'Why am I so afraid? None of us have ever came across a human before. I swear Uncle Killer B's stories are getting to me.' Naruto thought to himself. His uncle was the eight tail boar named Killer B. Even though each Jinchuriki had a different number of tails as they were different type of demons, they felt close like a family even though they were not related by blood except for Naruto and his father Kyuubi. Naruto was still young as he had yet to grow all nine tails like his father. Naruto only had four of his tails. As Naruto's claws touched the blanket a large silver metal cage dropped on him which sprand two traps at his feet as they clamped around his paws. One on his left rear and the other on his front right. Naruto let out a loud howl of pain as he could see three humans shake off their camoflague when they saw that they had caught a Jinchuriki.
