In the village of Konoha, there is a mob of villagers chasing away a 6yr old child with whiskers and blond hair, in order to inflict pain.

The said child is none other than Naruto Uzumaki, who is running for his life just to get away from the villagers

Random Villager: "Get back here, you demon!" Said with anger in his voice

Random Villager2: "Don't let him get away!"

The boy has been running at the streets trying to escape the mob before they got him. When he turn to a corner, the mob follows but he was nowhere to be seen

Random Villager3: "Damn it! He got away again"

Random Villager4: "We'll try again next time, and this time we're making sure he won't breathe again" said with anger

The mob agreed and started to depart. Not far away Naruto who was hiding in the dumpster waited for them to be gone. He sighed in relief and climbed out, he then started walking away.

Naruto feels the glares from the villagers whilst hearing their whispers.

Saying painful words like 'demon', 'devil born','monster' and others telling their children to not befriend him

He went back to his apartment which was given to him by Jiji. He laid down on his bed and started crying

Naruto: 'Why. Why do they beat me up and say mean things behind my back. What did I do to be treated like this' he said in his head with a sad and hurt look on his face with tears

Naruto's stomach grumbled in hunger as he has not eaten all day. He has been trying buy buy food using the saving he got from Jiji, but whenever he tried to buy something he was either kicked out or the shop owners overpricing their products

It was raining and Naruto went out again trying to find food or something edible. He smells something delicious, looks up and saw a place called 'Ichiraku Ramen' he peeks inside and saw a young girl cleaning the tables

She turns around and saw Naruto peeking inside and said cheerfully "Hi there! What are you doing here?" The girl asked naruto, who seemed to freezed up on the sudden kindness he's getting.

The girl who noticed this and saw the whiskers on his face recognized who this is. She heard his stomach growl and frowned

'Those people can't they realized on what they're doing' she thought. "My name is Ayame, how about you come in and sit down there, ok?" She said in a soft and kind voice.

Naruto was stunned by the tone of her voice as he was used to the anger filled voices of the villager, he nodded and sit down

"Dad! Come here for a sec'"

Then Naruto saw an old man with a kind smile, the father of Ayame, he is the one and only, the sage of six bowls himself, Teuchi

Teuchi saw Ayame and Naruto who he recognized and frowned due to the state of him.

Teuchi: "Hi there kid, my name is Teuchi and you've already met my daughter Ayame" he said gesturing Ayame

Naruto stood silent for a moment. "....Naruto Uzumaki" he said timidly

Teuchi smiled and said "How about I give you something to eat, alright?"

Naruto stayed quiet and nodded. Teuchi went to prepare his ramen as his daughter is keeping him company

[Teuchi POV]

As I prepare a bowl of miso ramen, I looked to see Ayame engaged in a conversation with Naruto, who seems hesitant but was able to answer her.

'Those people, why would they done this to a young child' he said in thought with a saddened look as he already knows who is Naruto's father since it's quite obvious, but the villagers who are blinded by anger they couldn't see it

He shook off those thoughts and went to Naruto with his ramen and placed it infront of him

"Here you go enjoy" he said with a smile

Naruto looked at the ramen and looked back at Teuchi, who noticed this and said "Eat up Naruto, it's on the house" he still has a smile on his face

Naruto grabbed some chopsticks and carefully grab a handful of noodles and eats it. His mind was blown. The flavour was out of this world. He smiled, a genuine smile on his face and started to devour the ramen

Ayame couldn't help but giggle at this, as Teuchi saw this, he couldn't help but smile at the boy. They stopped and saw Naruto crying

Teuchi: "Naruto, is everything ok? Did you bite your tongue or-" he was cut off by Naruto who said

Naruto: "Thank you Teuchi, Ayame for giving me food. This is the first time I had a proper meal" he said with a big smile on his face while tears are running down his eyes

Teuchi goes to Naruto and give him a hug. "You're welcome Naruto, and don't worry if you are running low on money or feeling hungry, you're always welcome here at Ichiraku Ramen" he said as he and his daughter doesn't view him as a 'demon', but a child. A real person

Naruto heard this, he returned the hug and started to cry harder on Teuchi's shoulder. Ayame saw this joined the hug.

Naruto is back on his apartment as it is night time and it stopped raining. Thankfully he encountered no villagers on the way, he couldn't help but reminisce the kindness they gave him. He couldn't help but smile as they are the few people like Jiji who are nice to him

As he slept with a small smile on his face

[Next day, Morning]

Naruto woke up as he heard a sound. He opened his eyes and saw a blue floating screen

.

.

.

Naruto: "Eeeeeeehhhhhhh!!"

He was now wide awake and saw this weird thing that is floating infront of his eyes

"W-what is this?" He questioned

He was startled as the screen suddenly said

/Hello host. I am the system and I'm here to help you get strong/ it bluntly said

And that is where Naruto's life started to change

To be continued
