Knight Wolf here with my second fic! This plot is in the air so we'll see where it will lead us. You know the same thing, don't own Naruto etc. etc. Some of the things I'm making up and they might be true or not. Just random thoughts have been going on in my mind about this story so don't expect EXACT information from the series.

Past of a Fox

Everyone knows that long ago, the Hidden Village of Leaf was attacked by the Kyuubi. That's not a new story but was anyone told why Kyuubi attacked? What reason would Kyuubi attack a village? Kyuubi also known as the Demon King for his great power, he was feared by all demon and human. There was something else that humans did not know of. Kyuubi wasn't some mindless demon that would just randomly attack a village. He was too honorable to do such a thing and a waste of time to him. So why would a great demon attack a village?

Naruto Uzumaki wanted to know the answer. And the only way he would get his answer is to ask Kyuubi. Kyuubi the Demon King.

Naruto, now 19 years of age had grown much since his younger days. His power was growing each day from his training and his use of Kyuubi. He learned how to talk to Kyuubi within his caged cell of his body. Despite being kept in a cage, Kyuubi made the best of it by training Naruto in the Demon Arts and showing him new attacks and defense ways. Naruto had since linked his mind with Kyuubi and the two were almost one. However, being linked with him had its price. Naruto's senses had heightened to even surpass Kiba's. Though none of his features had change into anything fox like but one thing did show a tattoo of Kyuubi on his back. The tattoo covered most of his back and the tails touched his shoulders and also down the sides. Naruto never took off his shirt in public, no one knew of this tattoo. Not even his girlfriend Hinata Hyuuga knew about it.

Orochimaru had gone into hiding yet again and Sasuke's whereabouts were still a mystery. Naruto only went three times to search for Sasuke and each lead was a dead end. From there, Naruto trained even harder and became Captain of the ANBU forces. He was well respected within ANBU but outside in the public was a whole different story. The adults still disrespected him and their hatred for him grew even more when he was named Captain of the ANBU forces. Some even broke the law and choose to tell their children of his secret. However he could care less anymore, he told his closest friends of his secret and they refused to deny their friendship with him.

More hatred grew when people got word that Hinata Hyuuga was dating Naruto. Some protested to the Hokage and to her father, Hiashi Hyuuga, to order the two be separated. Their argument was that one of the most honorable clans, Hyuuga, should not be allowed to have any relations to the demon child. The Hokage ordered them to their homes and Hiashi refused to listen to any of the protesters. His daughter happiness was important to him and he knew Naruto would never do anything to harm his daughter.

Naruto was somewhat mad when people were protesting about his relationship with Hinata but he was forced to violence when people would comfort the two and say vulgar words towards Hinata. After the first time they were comforted he almost wanted to end the relationship in fear that Hinata would get hurt. However, Hinata refused and slapped Naruto when he talked about it. From that day, he never thought once about ending his relationship.

Despite all that has happen, Naruto couldn't ask for a better life. He had his life worked out with Kyuubi, a girlfriend and tons of friends. He was Captain of the ANBU forces and captured many villains. But during one day of the year, he wasn't seen for the whole day. That day was October 10th. The day Kyuubi the Demon King attacked the village. On that day each year the village gather together to mourn the ones who were lost in the battle. This wasn't a big thing before but when Naruto was named Captain, a few villagers decided to ask the Hokage for the day each year to be held. The first time Naruto went to join the others in mourning but he heard whispers, he saw glares and glances. He knew the villages asked for this day to make him feel guilty. And it worked, he got up and left. He refused to be seen on that day each year.

That day so happen to be today. Naruto always talked to Kyuubi on that day. And there was something on his mind today.

In his mind, Naruto walked down the large room where Kyuubi was held. Two large eyes opened as Naruto walked closer to the cage. Kyuubi got up and walked to the bars.

"It must be the 10th is it not, Naruto?"

Naruto sat down and leaned against one of the large bars, "Yeah. Kyuubi, there's something I've been meaning to ask you."

"What is it that you ask?"

Naruto glanced into Kyuubi's eyes, "Why did you attack the village?"

The eyes widen and a flashed of anger then sadness. Kyuubi smiled grimly, "I knew this day would come. It is time I show you, Naruto. Link your mind with mine's and I will show you my memories."

A bright flash of light came and Naruto found himself looking through the eyes of Kyuubi long ago. He also heard his voice.

'Do you see the two female foxes?'

'Yes, I do. They are regular size foxes.' Naruto replied.

'Demons are not always large, Naruto. We can change our size very easily. They are my family. She was my mate and the young one my daughter.'

'Your…family.' Naruto saw the mother lick the fox clean. It must have been just born.

'Yes, but watch. This is the part where you will understand. My mate had just given birth to my daughter. My mate was very weak and needed rest.'

Kyuubi moved closer to his family and gave each a lick on the cheek and went off. 'I went in search of food for my mate, but when I came back…' he voice cracked.

Time passed by and Kyuubi came back with food in his mouth. As he got closed he smelled blood. In fear he dropped the food and ran faster, he ran instead the opening of the den and stopped. His eyes widen as he saw his mate and daughter dead. Blood splattered the walls and their fur, his mate wounded most. He slowly walked to the bodies and nudged each with his muzzle. Neither moved and his eyes watered. He shut them tightly and let out a mournful cry. He nuzzled both and let out another cry. He sniffed and smelled another scent. He looked around and saw the bodies of humans, ninjas to be exact. He looked at the hand around their heads and saw a symbol he'd seen before. It was the symbol of a village some ways of their den.

Feelings rushed into his body as he let out a loud cry. He ran out of the den, leaving the bodies of his loved ones and his body grew. He grew into his regular demon form and leaped over miles of land till he reached the village which had the same symbol. The Hidden Village of Leaf was to be destroyed and all the humans were to be killed by the Demon King in revenge for the murder of his family.

A bright flash of light brought Naruto back into the cell. Kyuubi had curled up in a corner with his back to Naruto. It meant he wished to be alone.

Naruto granted his wish.
