A twelve year old boy lies in an abandoned wasteland. His name was Naruto and he had spiky blonde hair and blue eyes and whisker like markings on his face. He was dressed in a suit which was mostly orange: the absolute worst color for a ninja to wear. However he had no choice on the matter as they were the only clothes the shops sold him. He knew it was because they hoped when he became a ninja he would be seen and killed by enemy ninjas.
A few months ago he learnt the reason they hated him. He was the host of the nine tail fox, a demon that nearly destroyed his village many years back. Many people hated him because of it. There were even a few attempts on his life but he never found out about it because the ANBU assigned to protect him begrudgingly saved him.
The few people who did not hate him were all gone or could not save him. The people who worked at the ramen shop were killed in a recent attack on the village. Iruka was killed by a ninja who told him the reason everyone hated him. Try as he might Naruto was unable to get him to a hospital in time and he died by a loss of blood. To make matters worse he was denied the chance to become a ninja despite mastering the shadow clone jutsu. Naruto closed his eyes as he remembered how he came to lie in the waste land alone.
Flashback
Naruto walks down the street his heart still heavy with grief. Even though it was not his fault Iruka died he felt like it was. If only he never believed Mizuki when he said if he stole that scroll he would graduate and become a ninja.
He may have learnt a new jutsu but at what cost? He lost one of the few people who truly cared about him. As he was thinking about this he bumped in to someone on the road and was knocked down. As he got up he saw the person he knocked down. He was a man of average build and height. He had long black hair that reached passed his shoulders. He gave a look at Naruto, one that made it clear he hated him.
As Naruto began to apologize the man interrupted him and said "Shut up you piece of shit."
Naruto could smell alcohol on his breath as he spoke. He gave Naruto a glare and said "I have had enough of you monster."
He took out a kunai as he said "I will end your life now and become a hero."
He charged toward Naruto as he finished. At the last minute Naruto was able to dodge but not before the kunai left a cut on his cheek. Naruto rubbed his cheek and noticed blood flowing.
He heard the drunken shinobi say "Looks like I missed demon I won't miss again." He started running toward Naruto as he finished.
Naruto was having a mental breakdown while the fight was going on. He knew why the ninja hated him but it was not his fault. He never asked to be the host of the nine tailed fox.
As he was thinking about it his body started to change. His eyes turned red, his canines grew longer and he appeared to be surrounded by a red cloak. He gave the man a glare which made him shudder. Before he could say a word Naruto charged toward him. He quickly grabbed the kunai from his hand and used it to stab the shinobi in the neck.
The man fell down and with his dying breath he uttered "Monster." In a few seconds Naruto turned back to normal and passed out
As he woke up he noticed a crowd around him. He saw fear in their eyes as he looked at them. Before he could say a word he was knocked out cold by an ANBU.
When he got up he found himself in a jail cell. As he tried to grab the bars of the cell, he was electrocuted and knocked back.
As he got back up he heard a familiar voice say "I'm sorry it has come to this Naruto." He looked in the direction of the voice and saw the third Hokage.
Seeing him Naruto quickly said "Grandpa Hokage it was not my fault that guy attacked me first."
Giving him a sympathetic look the Kage said "I know it was not your fault and if it was up to me you would be free." He let out a tear and said "But it's no longer in my hands Naruto."
"What do you mean?" The young boy asked in confusion.
Giving out a sigh of depression the Kage continued "I mean most of the village elders said you have to die for the crime you committed." He clenched his fist tight as he said this. It was not even Naruto's fault but he knew the other Village elders wanted to kill Naruto at the slightest chance.
Falling back down Naruto said "So that's it then I'm going to die."
Sarutobi comforted the boy by saying "No you're not. I may have been out voted but I'm still the Hokage I was able to pull some strings and I was able to get them to let you off in a gentler manner. You will be released in two hours and will have to run away from the village.
" His tone then became more serious "However 24 hours after you are released the some ninjas will hunt you down."
Naruto then said in an angry tone "Wait are you telling me I only have a day to live?"
Sarutobi let out a tear as he said "I'm sorry Naruto it was all I could do"
Naruto then broke down in tears and slammed his fists on the ground. He then said to the Kage "Why is it they hate me? I never asked to be the stupid fox's host did I?"
Sarutobi then said with a sad tone in his voice "I'm sorry Naruto, is there anything I can do?"
Naruto cried as he said "Can you sit with me until I have to leave?"
Sarutobi didn't say a word. He got up and broke the electrical jutsu on the cage. He then proceeded to open the cage. He then sat next to Naruto and gestured Naruto to hold out his hand.
As Sarutobi held the boy's hand he then said in his mind "I'm sorry Minato and Kushina."
End of flashback
Naruto opened his eyes and wiped a few tears off them. He got up and checked the watch the Hokage had given him. He had a few more hours before he would be hunted down like an animal. As he got up to begin running again he was stopped dead in his tracks by a kunai.
As he looked around he saw a tall ninja with a mask appear in front of him. He turned to Naruto and said "Well you demon brat it's time for you to die." When he finished he pulled out a sword.
Naruto quickly asked him "Why are you here grandpa Hokage said I have 1 day to runaway I still have a few hours left."
The ninja laughed as he said "What the Hokage doesn't know won't hurt him. Now it is time for me to avenge my parents who died fighting the demon fox. Prepare to die you brat."
As the ANBU charged toward Naruto he was stopped dead in his tracks and got tossed back. As he looked up and saw what tossed him he saw a humanoid horse creature with a black body and black hair. He had a red horn coming from his forehead but that was not scared the ANBU. His eyes were terrifying to the ANBU. His scleras were green and the pupils were red.
The ANBU got up and said to the figure "Who are you?"
The figure said in a nonchalant voice "My name is king Sombra."
The ANBU then said in an annoyed voice "Well Sombra kindly leave me to continue my orders."
King Sombra laughed and said "A big bad ANBU hunting an innocent child and I thought I was evil."
The ANBU then said in an annoyed tone "Either you let me kill him or you both die."
Sombra said in a nonchalant voice "You kill me. That's a laugh."
The ANBU tightly held his sword and charged toward Sombra. Sombra simply grabbed his hand and took the sword out of the ANBU's hand. Before the ANBU could react Sombra trust his sword into the Ninja's skull and moved the sword downward to make sure he was dead.
Sombra then approached Naruto and said "Boy, are you alright?"
Naruto replied in a confused voice "Yes I am but why did you save me?"
Sombra gave a laugh and said "I have my reasons. Now tell me your name."
"My name is Naruto Uzumaki."
Sombra gave him a look and said "Alright Naruto come with me. More ANBU will come soon so let's go now."
Naruto decided to listen to the man and follow him; after all he saved his life. "Alright mister."
As Naruto began to follow him Sombra said to himself "With the nine tailed jinchuuriki I will destroy Equestria and no one will be able to stop me."
