Yo, CaptainPrice here, here's my new Naruto story. I decided to do a Naruto/Death Knight story. Now before you ask why I did this it's because I had a craving to write one. And no, I have not given up on any of the other stories, just being plowed with homework from school so it's a bit of a kick to the nuts at the moment. Now this story is rated M for Strong language, Violence/Gore, Suggestive themes, and lemons. The pairing of this story is Naru/Hina/Tema and OC/Kurenai. Now the OC is 'MY' Death Knight and is my actual DK in WoW so you need my permission to use him or any of my OC's from my other stories. Got that? Good, cause if I find out you use him without my permission, you're gonna be in a shitload of trouble. Now without any further things, let's get to the story! Read and Review when done please.

Disclaimer: I do 'NOT' own Naruto or WoW, they belong to the God's known as Masashi Kishimoto and Blizzard Entertainment. I 'DO' however own the OC 'Grimes'. So lawyers I have one thing to say to ya' (Suck on that!)

"Quote"-Someone speaking


The early morning sky was blocked from dark grey clouds. Some dense fog surrounded the forest, concealing the village ahead. The air was damp from the late night rain. The man walked down the muddy path, his plated boots making a squishing sound with each step he took. The man was about six feet tall, he carried a two handed blade with him, his blade had blue aura emitting off of it. His cloak covered his head, blocking his eyes.

"The village Darion told me about should be dead ahead," the man muttered.

Rain began to fall as the man continued his walk. Shortly after the rain came, the man found himself looking up at the large gate to the village. A symbol above the gate had kanji on it reading, 'Konoha'. The man entered the gate and was stopped by two voices.

"Hault," spoke the first.

"Yes?" the man asked.

"Do you have a reason to be here?"

"I've come to speak to someone known as the, Hokage. Where can I find him?"

"That depends, are you here on diplomatic reasons?" the second guard asked.

"Yes, and so I can get moving here's my passport," the man replied, tossing them his passport.

The guard caught it and frowned at the man. He looked at the papers before handing them back.

"Okay, the Hokage Tower is down this road," the first guard informed.

"Thank you," the man said, walking down the road.


A couple blocks away, a large mob of villagers and shinobi were chasing a blond haired boy. Many of them were holding various weapons and spouting words of anger. The boy was wearing a black t-shirt and orange pants. He had deep blue eyes, three whisker marks on each cheek, and spiky blond hair. He turned a corner, only to be caught in a dead end.

He backed up against the wall and shook with fright. The villagers were soon upon him. The boy cried out in pain as a kunai entered his thigh. The villagers grinned wickedly as they heard his cries of anguish.

"It hurts, doesn't it?" a Chuunin sneered.

"What did I do!?" the boy yelped.

"You killed our Fourth Hokage, and a lot of shinobi!" yelled a woman.

"Die, demon!" a Jounin bellowed.

"Help!" the boy cried.


The man was a few blocks away from his objective before he heard shouts. The man stopped and scanned the area for the source of the noise. He was about to continue, but he heard someone scream.

"Help me! Someone! Anyone!" the voice yelled.

Although the man was on a mission, he decided to see what was going on. He hurried down the road and rounded the corner to see a mob of people in the alley. Through the mass of people, he could see a boy who was beaten and bloody, lying motionless. The man was both shocked and disgusted at the sight. The man felt his anger rise at the shinobi and villagers in front of him.

"Time to die, demon!" yelled a shinobi.

The shinobi tossed a kunai at the boy's head. By this time, the man had seen enough. He vanished and appeared in front of the kunai. The was a clang as the kunai hit the man in the chest and fell to the ground. The mob looked at the man guarding the demon and glared.

"What the hell are you doing to this boy?" the man asked.

"We're doing this village a favor and killing that demon!" a villager spat.

"So, you're killing a defenseless child then?"

"He is going to kill us all! We need to kill him first!" a shinobi yelled.

There was a deadly pause as the man looked at the boy then at the mob. He turned to the mob and glared at them under his hood.

"I can't let you do that," the man said darkly.

He grabbed the hilt of his blade and pulled it out. The neon runes of the blade shone brightly, its aura flared dangerously.

"Then we'll have to kill you too!" shouted a villager.

The shinobi sent killing intent at the swordsman. The man blinked and smirked. These idiots had absolutely no idea what he was capable of. He felt his bloodlust get the better of him.

"You call 'that', killing intent?" the man asked, sounding amused. "Try this in for size!" he roared.

He released all his anger into his killing intent. The reaction he got was perfect. The temperature dropped to absolute zero, everyone could see their breath in front of them. The villagers cowered in fear and fell to their knees. The shinobi were doing no better, the majority of them were petrified with terror from the man in front of them.

"Kill him! Quick!" barked a shinobi.

A few villagers and shinobi charged the man. The man grinned malevolently and raised his palm.

"Howling Blast!" he roared.

All of the charging villagers and shinobi fell dead after being hit by a wave of frozen wind and ice. The mob stared wide eyed at the man.

"Kill him, you idiots!" the shinobi ordered again.

The man held his hand out towards the shinobi. A purple arm shot out of his hand and darted towards the shinobi. The hand wrapped around the shinobi and yanked him to the man. The shinobi landed in front of the man and was decapitated in a flash.

"What's going on here!?" a voice demanded.

Everyone turned to see an old man with white robes and a hat, with two masked shinobi on either side of him.

"Lord Hokage! This man is killing us!" a villager shouted.

"Yeah, we were minding our own business and he interfered by protecting the demon!" shrieked a woman with pink hair.

The Hokage glared at the woman and looked at the man protecting the boy.

"Anbu, get your squads rounded up and take these fools to the interrogation chambers!" barked the Hokage.

"Hai, Hokage-sama!" nodded an Anbu.

The villagers and remaining shinobi scattered. The Hokage walked to the man who picked the boy up.

"Are you the messenger of the, Ebon Blade?" the Hokage asked. The man turned to him and gave a curt nod.

"Yes, I'm a knight of the, Ebon Blade. My name is, Grimes." The man informed.

The Hokage nodded and placed a hand on Grimes' shoulder.

"Let's continue this conversation in my office," the Hokage muttered. The two of them vanished from the alley, via a shunshin.


The two of them appeared in an old office. Grimes carried the boy and set him gently on the couch. He turned and walked to a chair in front of the desk. The Hokage sat in his chair and lit his pipe. Grimes sat down and faced the Hokage.

"So, I see you have met the village pariah?" the Hokage inquired.

"The kid?" Grimes asked, pointing his thumb back at the boy.

"Yes, thank you for saving him. This is the third time this week."

Grimes was shocked at the Hokage's statement.

"If you don't mind me asking," Grimes began. "Why do they hate him so much?"

"If I tell you, it must not be voiced or I'll have you killed on sight, understood?"

"Judging by the seriousness of your voice, I'll take your word for it,"

The Hokage told Grimes the story of the Kyuubi and the Fourth Hokage sealing it into the boy, now dubbed Naruto, into him.

"I guess it would make sense that he chose his son for being the vessel," Grimes said, rubbing his eyes.

"How did you figure that out!?" the Hokage hissed.

"Come on, I'm not that stupid. The kid looks just like the Fourth, you'd have to be a complete moron not to see that," Grimes replied.

"Well I guess there's no hiding it, but he cannot know of this until he is older." The Hokage grunted. "But we will continue this topic later. But for now, we should talk about our alliance."

"Good idea, Darion will be off his rocker if I didn't talk about the subject at hand."

After they finished their conversation concerning their alliance, they heard a groan coming from the couch.

"Ojii-san?" Naruto asked, looking at the pair of them.

"Hey, Naruto, how are you feeling?" asked the Hokage.

"I'm okay," Naruto lied, pulling his knees to his chest.

The Hokage frowned at this and walked over to Naruto. He sat down by Naruto and placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Naruto, what happened today?"

"Well, I failed the graduation test…again," Naruto murmured.

"Don't worry, you can take it again," the Hokage replied.

"I guess, but I don't have the ability because the instructors sabotage my training,"

"Why didn't you tell me? I'd have made sure you had the attention you needed,"

"I tried, but your attorney said you were never available,"

"Damn-it,"

Grimes looked at Naruto then the Hokage.

"This kid…he's had a rough life. I can change that," thought Grimes.

"Lord Hokage, can I ask you something?" Grimes requested.

"Go ahead, Grimes," the Hokage replied.

"Is Naruto still in the orphanage like you told me?"

"No, they kicked me out today," Naruto interjected.

"If it isn't too much trouble, Hokage-sama," Grimes began, "I'd be willing to adopt, Naruto if you'll let me."

The Hokage looked up with wide eyes then beamed. Naruto looked up and tears began to swell up in his eyes.

"R-Really?" Naruto croaked.

"Come here, Naruto. Give your big brother a hug," Grimes replied.

Naruto lunged at Grimes and tackled him into a bear hug. Grimes laughed at his little brothers reaction and ruffled his hair.

"Thank you, Grimes." the Hokage said, giving a small bow.

"No problem. I have one more request though," Grimes replied.

"What would that be?"

"I would like your permission to allow me to train Naruto to become a Death Knight. It will take about six years, and we will be back on his thirteenth birthday,"

"Very well, when he comes back he won't be pushed around by the villagers,"

Grimes nodded, he also mentioned that Naruto will become a shinobi after passing the test when he returns. The Hokage nodded and handed Grimes the papers for adoption. As Grimes signed the papers, the Hokage returned with Naruto's things in a backpack. Naruto retrieved his bag from the Hokage and gave him a hug.

"I'll be back and then I'll take your place as Hokage, Ojii-san!" Naruto grinned.

"I'll be looking forward to it, Naruto." the Hokage replied. "Now run along, Grimes is waiting for you,"

"Not really, I have a quick way to get to the Ebon Hold," Grimes informed.

"Really?" Naruto asked.

"Yep, now watch this, Naruto."

Grimes held his hand out and purple aura surrounded it. After ten seconds a portal opened. It was black and purple, a skull of a dragon was atop of it.

"Whoa," Naruto muttered.

"Let's go, Naruto," Grimes said, beckoning Naruto to follow him.

"Right!" Naruto nodded.

The two of them entered the portal and it vanished in a wisp of purple smoke.

"Why do I have the feeling that Naruto will come back a power freak?" Sarutobi asked himself. He shrugged it off and pulled out a certain orange book and giggled pervertedly.
