OK Kuta here. First off, my Distorting reality story is coming slowly, as you all know. It's going to be a long chapter. That means a LONG wait. Mainly because I'm being forced to write on word pad which has no spell check or anything similar. So I have to check everything (pretty much anyway) for errors without the help of software... A tedious process that.

Secondly I adopted this story from The Six Paths to Pain and need to clear some things up.

This is MY version of the story. Put it through some major overhauls. Fixed some things, put in some details and such. Kyuubi will NOT die, because it didn't make much sense to me. Why- if Venom feeds off of energy- would he COMPLETELY absorb the Kyuubi when it could sate it's hunger on a ninth of it's power an then let it regenerate? It could know this by reading the Kyuubi's mind like it did Peter Parker's (I reason that if Kyuubi is sealed in Naruto, then Venom could read it's mind as well since Kyuubi is linked to Naruto's mind (which is why he- read: Venom- shows up in the mindscape)) also Naruto will have all of Venom's spider abilities, as well as a minor-ish bloodline and even more massive chakra reserves, from both more intensive training and from Venom boosting his naturally large chakra reserves.

For those of you who don't know Venom is a symbiotic space organism from Spider-man that takes ones natural abilities and amplifies by a factor of like 20, or so I guess ( too lazy to actually look it up.) So if you can naturally lift 100 pounds with ease, it makes you able to easily heft a full ton. When suited up like Venom can do anyway, passive is more like a factor of eight or so.

So that takes all of Naruto's senses and makes them 8-20 times better, which is insane considering that in my story just having Kurama's chakra running through him and purified made his senses better by a factor of five already (which equals senses that are 40-100 times better than a normal human.) His strength (also already augmented by a factor of five which made him able to lift things he SHOULDN'T have been able to) is also a rough 8-20 times better, his speed is 8-20 times better, and unlocks his Kekkai Genkai and then amps it up quite substantially. Perhaps not the best thing for him though all things considered.

Anyway... Haku died but I always wanted to make a HakuXLee Fic... It could work... Naruto doesn't yet know of the Venom, and thinks it's all Kurama, but Kurama is basically a side figure now.

One more note... Naruto's outfit looks like a black version of Vayne Solidor's from FF12 only minus the stuff on his chest and biceps and with cargo's for carrying scrolls and the like. His fighting style is also like Vayne's.. Before the super lame ultra muscles. Very fluent but also brutal in it's power.

Okay onto the chappy!

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or Spiderman, nor do I technically own the idea for this story. If I were to publish the idea for this story I would own it, but as it is now, I do not. The same applies to any OC's I may incorporate into the fic.

The New Demon

Chapter One- New Beginnings:

It was a fine day and Konoha was celebrating the six year anniversary of the fall of the Kyuubi. Most of the village was in a good mood, happy for any real reason to get shit-faced.

That is, until they realized that the 'Kyuubi-Brat' wasn't anywhere to be found... which meant he was probably alone, outside of the Sandaime's influence. Vulnerable... this made them even happier.

Forest Outside Konoha

Ten year old Naruto was in the forest training, mostly the taijutsu he didn't know was flawed at a fundametal level since he'd already... put off,not given up on, his ninjutsu training. "Man I'm tired." He thought once he'd finished, he'd been at it in this forest for what felt like a week- in reality it was six and a half hours. He heard a bang and saw the fireworks that he knew the meaning of. "The Festival was today. That means I'm eleven now. Maybe the villagers will be nice to me now?" He thought without much hope.

He trudged further into the woods, seeking the shelter that experience had taught him he would need to survive the night unharmed. He came across a cave, with an obsidian floor and numerous granite stalactites and stalagmites- Naruto didn't know enough of geology to tell that it wasn't a typical cave in Hi no Kuni- lacking granite walls and veins of quarts in those walls (or really anything of geology at all), that seemed safe enough to him.

"Wonder what's in here?" He thought to himself, not questioning the caves odd formation. "Never came this way before... Maybe I can hide here when the villagers get mad." Lighting his only flare so he could see, Naruto went in to the cave happily- indeed he was nearly skipping along. He came across a black stone on an altar-like shape about five minutes into the dead black cave, only his flare allowing him to notice it out of the corner of his eye. "What's that thing?" He thought. "An alter to some kind of sports god? Or maybe it's like that orb thingy that the Old Man has and says I shouldn't touch?"

Naruto touched the stone and picked it up when he didn't see it do anything, he had thought it might because it looked like the thing the Old Man used to look at stuff from far away. As he held it, he noticed some black goo pooling at his feet, but ignored it as it looked like water dripping from the top of the cave onto the cold black ground. The goo slid up his leg and melded into his skin, though he never even noticed because it didn't set off any nerves. Naruto felt a slight burning in his leg after a while and figured his muscles must be sore from training.

In the Mindscape: Kurama's Cage

Kurama roared as he attempted once more to break free from his prison. Needless to say, he failed rather spectacularly. As he prepped himself for one more go, he took notice of a sudden and unexpected blackening of the walls outside the cage.

This would happen from time to time, as the boy was put in mortal danger fairly often. However, it was always preceded by a period in which the area warmed up and Kurama could feel a dramatic increase in the boys dark emotions, sadness, anger, fear, etc. Thus this sudden darkening was unprecedented.

Suddenly the blackness coalesced into a single four foot diameter circle, which then proceeded to grow into a large vaguely humanoid shape made of black goo. "Give me energy." The goo spoke.

At this, the Kurama froze. 'This being feeds on energy?' He thought, with a curious gleam in his eye. 'Maybe I can convince it to drain the seal...'

The goo spoke again. "I could... Kurama... But honessstly, you are a much bigger energy sssource... And the ssseal keepsss you from resssisssting... Also usssing you asss a sssource would keep me from having to drain thisss hossst dry... After all, you would jussst keep regenerating what I absssorb... Which keepsss me from having to find a new hossst. And that isss quite annoying, ssso... Bon appétit."

The goo closed in on the chakra construct, preparing to feed and Kurama roared his outrage, how dare this... Thing do this to him? The mighty Kurama, Kyuubi no Kitsune himself? Then the goo began to feed, and the fox blacked out, hearing the goo's parting words. "Venom'sss the name, don't forget it."

Back to Naruto

Naruto smiled happily as he walked to Ichiraku Ramen for breakfast, his cave adventure over with and the town back to mostly normal, hoping the villagers would be nice to him on the day after his birthday for once. "Hey Teuchi-jiji! One Ultimate Miso Ramen bowl please!" Naruto yelled as he entered.

Old man Ichiraku laughed and hurried to cook his favorite customers dish of choice. His daughter, Ayame, stood by Naruto. "So, how was your day yesterday, nothing bad happened did it?" she asked.

"No, it was more or less good. I trained some more and found a good place to hide in the forest next year." Naruto said, to which Ayame smiled nodded, relieved that the boy was okay.

"Food's ready!" Ichiraku said after a few minutes of listening to the boy idly chatter with his daughter. He gave the bowl to Naruto, who proceeded to inhale it as per usual while carrying on a conversation with Ayame and Teuchi.

Naruto then felt some pain shoot through him, originating from his gut, which for a second made him hesitate in eating, drawing Ayame's and Teuchi's attention. He finished his ramen anyway, thinking that he just hungry, before reassuring them that all was fine. "See ya Ayame-neechan. See ya jiji!" Naruto shouted as he left. Naruto walked home, oblivious to what was happening within his body. Oblivious to what that one encounter in a cave- an encounter that he was unaware of- would mean to rest of the world.

Two years and seven months later: Chuunin Exam Stadium, Konohagakure no Sato

"Will Uzumaki Naruto and Hyuuga Neji please stay on the arena floor? Everyone else up to the contestant booth in the stands." Shiranui Genma said as he chewed on a senbon needle.

The Chuunin Exams were underway once more after a month long pause and Naruto and Neji were on the floor, themselves for the upcoming fight. Neji began telling him of how he was a genius of the Hyuuga clan, unmatched in his age group, how Naruto had no chance. "Fool. You are destined to lose." Neji spat. Naruto smirked at this, the poor bastard thought he could win, thought Naruto was just some nobody. Ever since he was eleven, Naruto had taken his training and education much more seriously, even changing the clothes he wore to more ninja-ish attire, and actually listening to Iruka-sensei.

Even going to the library, and actually to read.

He now wore a pair of black cargo's with many pockets under some heavy shin guards that also covered his feet, a black undershirt with a tailed overcoat, which had some light armor sewn into the inside, and some heavy bracers. He was no dead-last anymore He was ranked just below Aburame Shino at third in his class. "You are nothing but a dobe." Neji said.

Naruto smiled. "Thank you! That really helps a guys self esteem, throwing a title at him that he didn't graduate with. Unfortunately for you, this loser is going to kick your ass!" Naruto said as he made a familiar hand seal. "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" Four clones this time, a test of Neji's skill.

Neji activated his Byakugan. 'Fool. I can tell wh- Huh? Their chakra systems are all identical! Even the amount of chakra they have is perfectly, exactly the same! And they have so damn much!' Still he figured that a guy like Naruto would either run at him head on or stay back while his clones did the work.

As one all the Naruto's except the original ran forward with a heavy haymaker or spinning axe kick... At speeds that Neji couldn't quite keep up with. The Naruto clones launched a series of heavy blows at Neji, mostly using the force from their first heavy blows to speed up their next ones.

However, just as it seemed like Neji was done for, he frowned and started to spin during one of the short breaks between attacks, giving himself enough momentum to start off his-

"Hakkeshou: Kaiten!" He called out expelling chakra from all of his tenketsu. Naruto and his clone were thrown off him as Neji's chakra dome expanded. Naruto's clones poofed out of existence as they impacted the ground. Neji took advantage of both his opponents proximity and his distance and ended his Kaiten.

Realizing that he couldn't afford to hold back against his opponent, that he was much stronger than the Hyuuga prodigy had given him credit for, Neji dropped into a different stance. "You are in range of my Divination." He called out, causing quite a stir among his Main Family relatives, before quickly rushing in. Naruto's curiousity kept him from reacting, as he was a bit cocky.

"Jyuukenhou Hakke Rokujuuyonshou!" Neji called out causing Hyuuga Hiashi to freeze. How had a Branch member learned such a high level skill without tutoring? "Hakke Nishou," Neji announced while attacking and closing off two of Naruto's tenketsu with two strikes from his finger tips. "Yonshou," This time he closed off four different tenketsu. "Hachishou," Eight now. "Juurokushou," Sixteen. "Sanjuunishou," Thirty-two tenketsu. "Rokujuuyonshou!" Neji struck sixty four more times for a grand total of one-hundred and twenty-six strikes. Each to a different tenketsu.

Naruto collapsed to the ground, beaten and bruised, semi-conscious. After all, even if he was stronger than Neji, he did have limits, and Neji had taken advantage of his surprise from that chakra dome. Neji began to speak. "You see, Fate has declared me the winner. Even if you had abilities that could defeat me, you would still be unable to, because you are a loser and I am a genius." Neji then told Naruto of the curse that he claimed Fate had handed him, and how his father had been killed to keep his uncle Hiashi alive. "Proctor call the match, that dobe isn't getting up."

Upon hearing this, Naruto's brain went into over-drive. "I'm losing?" He thought. "To this asshole? No... I refuse this... I will not lose here, not to him. I've beaten people stronger than him, and that means that he isn't capable of winning against me... I will not lose... Not after beating her..."

Flashback:

Naruto and Sasuke were standing on the incomplete bridge Tazuna had built, surrounded by mirrors of ice, panting, exhausted, outclassed by an overwhelmingly superior opponent. They both had numerous needles of ice embedded in them. Their opponent was Haku, the ice maiden that was apprenticed to Momochi Zabuza, A-rank nuke-nin and formerly the Demon of the Bloody Mist.

Sasuke was standing in front of Naruto, having just taken a seemingly fatal blow for him. "Sasuke…" Naruto said, brokenly, not sure why someone who claimed to hate him would do something so self-sacrificial for him of all people. "Why?"

"My body... Just moved on its... Own, loser." Sasuke said haltingly, the strain of talking obvious on his face. "Promise me, Naruto... Promise me... That you will take care of... My ambition... You're the... Only one I... Feel I can trust it... To..."

"Sure thing, Teme, that murserous ass is as good as dead, the ultimate promise." Naruto said with tears in his eyes, watching as seemed Sasuke smiled in content while also seeming to to drop dead. Naruto clutched his fallen teammate's body and howled in emotional turmoil, still somewhat conflicted about how he should feel about the boy he had felt both an intense dislike and a sort of subdued... He supposed it could only be a sort of brotherly affection for.

"Is it the first time you've seen a teammate die?" Haku asked. "It's always very difficult... But you will move on, should you survive. It would be the only way he'd be at peace"

But Naruto wasn't listening to her, he was demanding power from the fox, not knowing that the fox was no longer the one with whom he should speak. But the Venom heard him, and decided to make Kurama give the boy a boost, lest he be subjected a premature feeding. "You…" Naruto said quietly, breathing erratically before a dark chakra began to swirl around him. His hair grew shaggier and his nails became claws, his eyes turned blood red. "I'LL KILL YOU!" He continued in a demonic roar before smashing the mirror she was in, sending her flying.

End

"I WON'T LOSE TO YOU, YOU SON OF A BITCH!" Naruto screamed in rage as he forced himself to stand, gasping for breath and trembling slightly, still very much injured from Neji's attack.

"You shouldn't be able to stand." Neji said, utterly perplexed as to how Naruto was able to stand up at all after all of those hits from a Jyuuken user.

Naruto coughed up some blood and chuckled a bit, honestly morbidly amused by that statement. "I do the impossible, Neji. It's who I am." He said. Naruto couldn't move, though, he was too exhausted. But then he felt something, some power welled up inside him, invigorating him. And he remembered, all the beatings, the curses thrown at him, the cruel, vicious, savagery of the villagers and how they had taunted him as the tortured him in his younger years. This fueled an anger in him so profound that he could feel pinpricks of pain in his very skin. But what he didn't know was that the goo was resurfacing, coating his skin under his clothes and making the Kyuubi pump some youki into him, empowering him beyond anything but Tsunade's own super strength technique.

"I'm going to kill him." Neji said, oblivious to Naruto's new-found power. The examiner made no move to stop him so Neji ran towards Naruto, ready to kill with a single Jyuuken strike to the heart. But then something he didn't expect happened, Neji felt something grab him after no more than five steps. He looked to his arm to find a somewhat psychotic looking Naruto gripping it, his hair even more of a rat's nest than it had been, and his nails... Were they longer? His eyes were what Neji feared the most though, red irises, hellish and angry with a sadistic glint that bode the young Hyyuga no good fortune.

Naruto hurled Neji into the stadium wall with enough force to imprint him there and not need to secure it. Neji opened his eyes slightly, in too much pain to try to look for Naruto. But that wasn't necessary, Naruto was walking up to him from the front, with a crazed and slightly maniacal look in his blood-red eyes.

Naruto stopped, head down facing the ground, he chuckled a little as his head came up. His eyes were back to being blue now. "Loser. Dobe. Moron. Demon. Hell spawn. Monster. Murderer. Abomination. Freak. All my life, the people of this village have called me these things." He said, still angry and getting more hysterical by the word, finally seeming to have snapped. "You have no idea what my life was like! I had assassination attempts in my bed when I was four, and I fucking remember them! The villagers did all they could to kill me, poisons, knives, beatings, broken bones, burning, even a partial beheading once, before they were stopped! But I persevered! I SURVIVED!" He said yelled. The whole stadium could hear him, he was making sure of it.

A kunai was thrown at Neji, piercing right through his left lung, the pain... The Hyuuga couldn't describe it... Breathing, impossible. But still Neji screamed and writhed, silently begging Naruto not to do anything rash, but too busy screaming to say it aloud. Naruto chuckled in a more than slightly insane manner. "The villagers did that to me when I was five. How's it feel? Does it HURT a bit? Hoo, I bet it does. I mean not that I'd know anything about pain or suffering, right? After all," Naruto chuckled again, and Neji was really starting to find it unnerving. "Aren't I the idiot, the fool, the loser who doesn't know the feeling of being marked for something at birth through no fault of his own? WELL? AREN'T I?" Naruto roared at the end, though had again made sure that the whole stadium had heard him all the way through.

The ninjas watching were either pleased with the kids ruthlessness and ability, or in shock that the happy-go-lucky little boy they had known could turn into this... Sadistic, anger driven fiend, that he had had this kind of rage hidden in his heart all this time. Some civilians were even a little uncomfortable, knowing that they had contributed to this... Or even feeling guilty. The latter was a minority, though, because most of the civilians were scared now, scared that the demon would come after them for his well deserved vengeance- not that they'd admit that they deserved it, on the whole. Naruto drew a kunai and drew his arm back, ready to stab Neji in the heart.

A/N: Well, now, ain't I a stinker? Cliffy! Anyone who spots the bleach reference that is somewhere in this chappy gets a cyber-cookie! And I Mean, ANYWHERE. A/N's included. Partial Hint: soul.

Anyway, there's the first chapter... and that's all I have to say about that...

Edit: I fixed it up further. Be happy.
