Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto. If I did Naruto and Hinata would be together already.

Konoha was a rather nice village. The sun was almost always out with just the right amount of clouds in the sky. At night you could see just about every star in the sky. This however was not the description that one four year old boy would describe the nights as. This boy considers nighttime in the village hell on earth for whenever he would even set foot outside at night he would be beaten like a dog. This young boys name was Naruto Uzumaki and tonight October 10 is his birthday and the anniversary of the day that the Kyuubi attacked the village. He just decided to go out and celebrate at the festival in hopes that he wouldn't have to flee for his life. However, he didn't expect the villagers to be extra aggressive tonight. The moment that he was spotted the villagers started yelling about finally getting the chance to kill the demon that has plagued the village for four years now.

Naruto, realized he was now in a very bad situation. So he immediately started running like his life depended on it. What he didn't expect was for something very hard to hit him in the back. He started turning in and out of different streets and alleys until he unfortunately ran into a dead end. He was immediately blocked off from any chance of escape. Before he turned around to face the crowd of villagers that were out for blood he felt very sharp pain in his legs and fell to the ground. When he turned his head to look at what caused the pain he found a shuriken in each leg. He just managed to pull them out and drop them before the crowd was on top of him beating him with just about anything they could find from fists and feet to pipes and evens some knives. Just before Naruto fell unconscious he saw an ANBU with the Inu mask walking towards him with his hand encased in what appeared to be lightning with a loud chirping sound ringing in his ears. Then everything went black.

Narutos' mindscape

Naruto woke up to find himself in some kind of sewer system. He was honestly surprised that he didn't feel any pain anymore. One thought came to mind 'I must be dead.' As he was lost in thought he subconsciously started walking but he was quickly brought out of his thoughts when he spotted a large cage with huge golden bars and a paper tag with the word 'seal' holding it closed. From within he could hear slight sounds of crying and being a curious four year old, he stepped between the bars to go see who it was. What he saw shocked him.

There kneeling in the middle of the cage was a woman that looked to be about twenty or so years old. She had long red hair that went down to about her mid thigh. She looked to have a perfect hourglass figure and breasts that seemed to fit perfectly with it. She wore a crimson red kimono that hugged her figure just right and no shoes or sandals. On top of her head there appeared to be two crimson fox ears with white tips and from the base of her spine there were nine crimson fox tails with white tips and she also appeared to have some sort of claws for fingernails. She had her face in her hands and she was crying very loudly almost as if she had just lost someone special to her. As Naruto continued walking towards her like the curious boy he is, she quickly looked up to see who it was. When she looked up, Naruto got a look at her face. She had crimson red eyes with black slit pupils like a fox. She had three whisker marks like what he himself had but they were thicker and much more defined and she had slightly lengthened canines that gave her a rather feral look. Her face was very slender and it seemed to go just perfectly with her body structure. When she looked up her expression almost immediately changed from one of sorrow to one of hope and happiness. She immediately got up and ran to Naruto and wrapped him in a loving hug. Naruto flinched slightly but eventually started to relax when he realized that she wasn't going to hurt him. After about a minute, she let him go.

"Listen Naruto-kun, I am going to make some changes to your body so that you can survive this latest attack, ok." She said with a hint of sadness at the end.

"um, ok, but who exactly are you and where are we?"

"I will explain everything later. What I need you to do right now is to tell the man that is sitting next to you that your tenant is going to be making some changes to your body to save your life and that he shouldn't worry about the changes and tell him that he should put his most trusted ninja guarding the room so that nobody tries to attack you while you are recovering. Tell him not to have the one wearing the Inu mask be one guarding the door."

"um, ok. But how do I get out of here?"

"I will send you back to the real world."

With that Naruto noticed that the area was starting to fade and go black.
