In The Arms of Angels

By: Kyubi X

A/N: Okay, don't worry, I'm still working on the Dark Gate, this is just another project I am going to do along side it because I was too excited to wait so here it is.

I have always wanted to create a bloodline limit for Naruto, but to be honest it had been overused with the whole "special eyes" thing. So I decided to take a different spin, I wanted to create a bloodline limit that Naruto could use that didn't involve eyes like Haku's Demonic Ice Mirrors, so after some brainstorming with One Azn Dragon my very good friend, this is what I came up with, so I hope you enjoy, as Naruto rests in the arms of angels….

Chapter One: The demon that only angel's could love…

Kohona village, considered to be the most powerful ninja country in the Fire Country. Not only do some of the most talented ninja in the world reside in the village, but another main part of the village's strength came from the clans that resided within it, the two most common known would be the Hyuugas and the Uchihas. However, there was one other clan in the village that possessed a bloodline limit, however unlike the Hyuugas and the Uchihas, this clan's bloodline limit didn't come out from the use of special eyes, this bloodline limit was much more unique. However, the clan's existence came about long before Kohona was ever created. In fact, the clan itself came into existence 400 years before the founding of the village hidden in the leaves.

On the day that the Kyubi attacked, there were only 4 members of the family left, three men and one woman. The rest of the family had been killed in a mysterious fire that took them while they slept. These four, had not been with the family at the manor at the time, they had all been out on missions for the village when the disaster occurred. And so, on that fateful day for Kohona, the three men of the clan left the woman who was on the verge of giving her child birth and went out to try and buy some time for the forth Hokage to make it to the frontlines. The three men who had gone into battle died heroically buying as much time as they could before the other ninja of the village arrived. And as for the woman, well, the woman died given birth to the one that would become the soul survivor of her clan. And so, she grasped the hand of the man she loved, and begged him to give him a name worthy of her clan whose bloodline limit was a mystery even to the leaders of the village present and past. And so, the fourth Hokage of Kohona let his tears fall as his wife left the world. He looked to the crying child and said, "Uzumaki Naruto, my sons…make your clan proud…" And so, as history goes, the fourth sealed the Kyubi into his son, the sole survivor of a clan whose power was a mystery that would not be known until six years later……

Six Years Later

Uzumaki Naruto was hated, he was hated and he didn't know why. At the tender age of six years old. He was given cold glares and was cursed by everyone who laid eyes upon him. Only six years old, and already Uzumaki Naruto had been beaten nearly to death four times. However, on this fateful day, Uzumaki Naruto was about to experience something that would forever change his life. It started out normally, Naruto took a shower and but on his underwear and pants when suddenly a horrible pain shot threw his back. Naruto let out a surprised cry and fell to his knees as the pain began to grow stronger and stronger. Naruto arched his back and let out another cry as unknown to him, a tattoo of a sword with angel wings sticking out of it. Naruto fell onto the ground and began to whimper and scream as the painful sensation went from his back to just below his shoulder blades. Naruto curled up into a ball and then let out a blood curdling scream as two giant white wings exploded from his back sending pure white feathers flying everywhere. Naruto then collapsed onto his stomach and looked up slightly only to see what appeared to be a person clothed in white robes and skin that shined as bright as the sun appear before him.

The figure kneeled beside Naruto and said, "You have no reason to fear lord Naruto, and the pain you are feeling will soon pass. My name is Gabriel, the archangel of the heavens… you will soon fall into slumber but when you awaken I will come to you and explain what is going on, don't lost hope Naruto, you must survive…for the sake of everyone you will come to love…" And with those words, Naruto's world went black.

As this turn of events was being set into motion, an chunnin guard who was on patrol of the area heard the bloodcurdling scream and rushed towards the source of the noise. When the chunnin guard peeked threw the window, her eyes went wide at the sight she saw. For he saw the Kyubi container lying on the ground, with large white wings sticking out of his back and pure white feathers were flying everywhere. She watched in a mixture of wonder and confusion as the boy seemed to look up at something before passing out. The chunnin guard watched as the boy's wings disappeared and she quietly entered the house. She cautiously crept up to the boy and saw that he truly was asleep. Knowing that this needed to be reported to the Hokage immediately, the chunnin guard picked the boy up in her arms gently and rushed towards the Hokage manor.

At the Hokage Manor

The chunnin guard was rushed right into the third's office upon the sight of the boy in her arms. When the third laid eyes upon the boy in her arms, he was on his feet in an instant and rushed to her side asking if he had been attacked again. The chunnin then began to explain the situation and what she saw to the third. The third was quiet for some time before speaking to the chunnin.

"Anko, do you know who this boy is?" She replied that she did and explained that he was the container of the Kyubi and the only one holding the demon back from destroying the village. The third paced a little bit before turning to the woman again who was setting the boy down gently in a chair. "Who do you live with Anko?" The third asked slowly.

Anko blinked a few times before replying that she of course lived alone. The third nodded again and began to pace back and forth again. "Anko, would you be willing to let this boy live with you?" He asked looking up at her with serious eyes.

To say that Anko was startled was an understatement. Why was he asking this of her? She began to think and came to the realization that he was asking her to do this in order to keep what she saw a secret. "In doing this, am I going to become the boy's guardian? Or are you simply doing this to cover up what I saw Hokage-sama?" Anko asked trying to remain polite.

The third thought for a moment before speaking, "That is one reason, but the more important reason is that Naruto needs someone to protect him from the villagers who have been blinded by hate, and also because you need someone in your life that can teach you how to love again. I realize that you loved Orochimaru and I also realize that you have come to hate him because of his betrayal, but I believe that this would be a good move…for the both of you. So Anko, will you become the guardian of this boy and accept him into your home? Your pay will of course be raised to help pay for his needs and such things."

Anko bit her lip, she really didn't want to do this, but to defy the Hokage was a bad move indeed. She mulled over her thoughts and then looked down at the sleeping boy. Which she decided was a mistake because she thought that he looked far too cute sleeping like he was. And so, she hesitantly agreed and signed the papers to become the official guardian of Uzumaki Naruto under the authority of an older sister.

And so it began. Anko decided to go to the waiting area as the third waited for Naruto to wake up which didn't take too long. When the boy woke up he looked to his right and saw the Hokage looking at him. The Hokage then explained why the boy had been brought here and asked him to explain the past few hours as best as he could. And so, Naruto explained about the pain he felt and how he saw Gabriel and then he explained that Gabriel told him that he would see him again soon. The third was nervous that this was a trick and also side effects of the demon and asked Naruto to take off his torn and bloody shirt. Naruto turned his back and lifted up the shirt which immediately caught the attention of the Hokage. The Hokage grabbed the boy by the shoulders gently and asked the boy not to move. He then began to examine the tattoo of the sword with angels wings, he then noticed that that cuts from where the wings had supposedly come out were being healed by the Kyubi.

The third then quietly asked Naruto to put his shirt back on and then turn around and face him. Naruto complied and looked up into the third's eyes. The third coughed gently before speaking, "Naruto, how would you feel about being taken in by someone who can protect you and keep you safe? And maybe even more importantly, show you what the love of family is?" Naruto's eyes filled with tears and he leapt at the third crying out the word yes over and over again.

Anko took this as her cue to step into the room. She closed the door a little loudly to get Naruto's attention and he turned to her. As soon as he set eyes upon her his eyes went as wide as dinner plates and he asked her if she was going to be his big sister. She could feel a tugging in her heart and she gave a small smile telling him yes. He left the arms of the Hokage and leapt into Anko hugging her deeply and crying into her vest. The third smiled softly as he watched Anko's eyes soften and she wrapped her arms around him gently whispering comforting things in his ears. The third knew it was going to be interesting, but he knew in the end, that this would be the best for both of them. He then instructed them to go gather all of Naruto's things and to get moved into her home. They nodded and left. The third waited until they were gone before thinking about the tattoo on the boy's back, indeed he had a lot of research to do, because for some reason, it all seemed far to familiar. And then there was that name…Gabriel…why did that seem so familiar to him? He knew it that today was going to be a long day indeed.
