Naruto watched as the crowd gathered to hear the news that his father and mother wanted to share with them. On the stage next to his parents were his siblings who even though were the same age as Naruto; they were much stronger due to them having access to chakra while his on the other hand was destroyed in sealing Kurama's soul into his body. 

Though Naruto knew that he wasn't supposed to have knowledge of this, Kurama had told him what had happened when Naruto was old enough to understand the spoken word.  

When enough of the villagers had gathered, Minato who was the father of the Uzumaki triplets started to speak. "Welcome citizens of the Leaf Village. I your Hokage wanted you too meet the Clan Heirs of the Uzumaki-Namikazi Clans. My son Hikaru will be the Clan Heir to the Uzumaki Clan while my daughter Remi will be the Clan Heir to the Namikazi Clan." Minato bellowed out to the crowd that had gathered around them.

The moment that the Hokage had finished speaking, cheers erupted around them as the villagers of the Leaf Village congratulated two of the three triplets for becoming Clan Heirs at such a young age.

Though the citizens of the Leaf were thrilled about who would be leading the Clans, Naruto on the other hand was not feeling joy upon hearing this. At the mention of who would be leading the two Clans that made up his family, Naruto started to fight back the tears that were trying to rip out of him.

"I told you Kurama! My family despises me..." Naruto wept to the soul that lived within his body.

This was all that it took for the tears that Naruto was trying to keep inside to spill from the corners of his eyes. No longer wanting to listen to the joyous sounds the surrounded him, Naruto bolted. 

With speed that Naruto had never managed to use before, he ran towards his home so he could cry in the privacy of his own room. As he was running he wasn't paying attention to the voice inside his mind that was screaming for his attention. When Naruto finally arrived at the entrance of his family's large estate, he stood there panting. This allowed the voice to finally register with the young Uzumaki-Namikazi triplet. 

"...Naruto!" Kurama bellowed.

Now that Naruto was able to hear the voice of the fox demon that lived within him, he turned his attention towards the voice. "Yes Kurama?" Naruto inquired as he pushed himself through the door that would allow him to reach the inside of his home. 

"I know that living the way that you do is painful Naruto and though I am not experiencing it first hand, I do share a body with you which allows me to feel that pain that you are going through. You have to be strong Naruto..." Kurama muttered into Naruto's mind. 

Though the fox demon had much more to say to Naruto, he was unable to since the blond had chosen this time to interrupt him. "...Kurama. How can I continue to live like this? Most of my family barely looks at me. The only one that seems to care about me is Hikaru and even that is not enough for me to want to continue to live a life like this. It would be better if I just disappeared." Naruto cried out as he made it to the part of the house that his parents decided was the only place that someone like him deserved. 

"Naruto. If you want to vanish there is a place that I know of that could be of use to you and at least there you won't have to worry about invoking the wrath of your parents." Kurama explained to the youngest of the Uzumaki-Namikazi triplets.

Hearing this caused a small ounce of hope to sprout inside of Naruto's soul and though he would miss the kindness that his older brother gave him; Naruto knew that the only real way for him to survive would be for him to run. "Thank you Kurama. I would like to leave today if that is possible." Naruto replied to the offer that the fox demon had made to him.

"Very well Naruto. We will leave as soon as you pack up your belongings." Kurama informed Naruto who rushed to do as the fox demon had told him.

Even though Naruto knew that there was no real reason to rush since his family would be celebrating with the village for the majority of the day and night; Naruto still thought it would be best if he left as soon as he could. 

Since Naruto was the disappointment of his family, he didn't have much he needed to pack away; just the few clothes that Hikaru had managed to give him when their parents weren't looking. After packing the clothes that he owned, Naruto decided that he wanted to leave a note for Hikaru since he was the only person within their family that seemed to care for him. 

Pulling out a piece of scrap paper from the trash can within his room, Naruto got to work with the words that he wanted to leave Hikaru.

Dear my beloved brother Hikaru, 

I know that my sudden disappearance will trouble you but with the announcement of you and Remi becoming Clan Heirs I have decided that it would be best if I wasn't here to witness my own persecution within my family. I want you to know that even though I love you and wish for you to have the best future imaginable, I can't not remain. If fate intervenes, I may return one day; until then be careful.

Love, your brother Naruto.

When Naruto finished with writing the note, he left it on his barely useable mattress. Since no other member of his family besides Hikaru ever visited him here, Naruto had no worries that Hikaru wouldn't be the one to find the note and with everything that he needed to do now done; Naruto made his escape from his room and sprinted towards the door. 

Upon arriving at the door, Naruto spared one final look at the house that he never really had a right to call home. "Goodbye..." Naruto whispered to the ghosts of his ancestors before turning away and pushing himself through the door.
