Well this is my first fan fiction so I don't know how good it will be. This chapter doesn't give many details and merely introduces the storyline. Well I hope you enjoy.

I'm running as though death itself is chasing me and yet I still don't know why. I stumble across a cave only to be cornered by whatever it is that's chasing me. Two large red eyes loom over me and right before that feral face comes near me…

"AHH!"

It was only a dream…and yet it felt so real. Oh well It's about time to eat my morning meal anyways. I get myself out of bed and exit into the main hallway. Oh how I hated this orphanage. Everyone here neglects me as though I don't exist. The only person so far who has paid attention to me has been the old man, the third Hokage. At least I had him. He told me he was going to get me my own apartment so that I didn't have to deal with all this trouble at the orphanage.

"Hey you don't get your meal this morning you demon" an attendant stated with a smirk on his face "you can go ahead and leave now nobody wants you here, you should have died long ago" apparently, for whatever reason, he had decided to get drunk at 7:30 in the morning.

"I'm sorry sir… I'll leave you alone now" I stated nearly in tears. Why did they all treat me this way, it's as though I am being punished for being born. Of course, whatever I did wrong, whether I cooperated or not I was always in the wrong.

"Brat, don't act like you're innocent. For all I know you are probably planning to finish us all off in our sleeps." By now I had backed out through the back door into the garden.

Every ounce of my body told me to run but I couldn't bring myself to do it. As the man pulls out a kunai and charges at me an image pops up into my head. Those eyes, I know those eyes. All of a sudden as though instinct took over I run, the fastest I had ever ran in my life through the forest. I find a familiar cave and run into it.

"Wow I lost him" I stated to no one in particular.

"No thanks to you brat" where on earth had that voice come from. It sounded as though I was thinking it myself.

Eventually curiosity took over and I had to ask. "Who's there?" only to be answered by a deep chuckle.

"I am a part of you just as your blood and skin. I am the one who made legend 7 years ago."

"Huh?" confusion was definitely evident on my face. I never was the sharpest kunai in the pouch.

"The first thing I am going to do is broaden your mind you dimwitted kit"

"Who are you calling dimwitted!" I said while cursing words I should never have known

"I am the great demon lord Kyuubi and have the privilege of being a part of you"

"A part of me?"

"Yes that bastard Yondaime sealed me inside of you"

"Wait, you attacked Kanoha, you're evil!" I yelled in slight panic

"I did not intend to kill anyone but I was forced into the act" Kyuubi stated, sadness evident in his voice "My mate was taken by a leaf-nin, forcing me into rage as I attacked your village. If only I had realized sooner that the leaf-nin was a defect. I'm sorry kit"

"Don't worry" I say with a big grin on my face "We'll just get back at that man when I'm stronger"

"Thanks kit"

"Hey! Don't get soft on me. You're supposed to be the most feared demon in the land." I earned a chuckle for that one "Now is there some way I could talk to you without feeling like I'm insane. I'm talking to thin air."

"Yes, during your training"

"Train me?"

"Yes I'm going to help you prove this village wrong"
