Prologue
Konoha day of the sealing of the Kyubi
The Fourth Hokage is about to seal the evil Kyubi Shiki Fujin when a pillar of light appears and a young man falls on the head of the Kyubi. The Fourth Hokage silently asks for the unknown man forgiven before unleashing the seal. The Kyubi body vanishes and the young man's body falls on the ground bellow. That was the final view of the Fourth Hokage, on his last thought he asks for the man forgiveness and prays for the safety of the Leaf Village.
Much later when everything calmed and the corpses of the fallen are being retrieved the young man body is found. No one knew him and he was not wearing ninja clothes, just a pair of jeans pants, a t-shirt, a pair of boots and a backpack. The Third Hokage keeps the unknown man possessions and stores them if any relative claims it, even thought the elder ninja knows that it won't happen, but was the least that he could do for that man that was caught on the battle. Few days passed and no one claimed the body of the young man, the Hokage buries him in the Konoha graveyard, not knowing the man identity on the man grave it only has this inscription. : Here lies a poor soul that was killed on the battle against the Kyubi. : Just the Third Hokage was present on the young man funeral, he shed few tears for the life that was ended so shortly and with out reason, even being a seasoned warrior a death like that saddened him and made him curse the fate of war and battles.
At the same time in some unknown place
The young man looks around confused; he recalled what happened when he landed on the Kyubi head. "I know that I am on Naruto's world. But what happened to me?" he says to himself. He runs his right hand on his shoulder long black hair. He is inside a large empty area with nothing else to do he walks around and tries to find where he is.
Six years later in Konoha
Naruto is once again alone, all the kids stay away from him and the adults look at him coldly, but unseen to everyone but Naruto the young man that was caught on the Kyubi sealing process stands besides Naruto comforting the young boy. (One day Naruto they will understand you.) He says to the blonde boy. (One day you will have many friends.)
(But I am alone now Benji-oniichan…) Naruto whispers to the much older man. (And I am what, chopped liver?) The man says with a playful tone. (No.) Naruto answered with a small smile. (You are the only friend that I have.) Benji nods sideways before saying. (I am not the only friend that you have Naruto, just the first of many.)
Naruto stays in silence. (So Naruto what about we go to the library of the city and study a little remember of what I told you?) Benji asks breaking the silence. (Yes.) Naruto replied. (That I shouldn't show my skills and that I should act as a incompetent ninja to make everyone underestimate me so when I fight I will surprise my enemy with my true skill!) (That is right. You are a ninja and that mean that we act in the shadows and hide our real strength.)
Naruto nods and get up from the swing where he was seated and move to the library passing thru the kids and the adults feeling better than before. Iruka watched Naruto walking away and wonders how Naruto deals with the adults and the kids ignoring him.
Four years later in Konoha
Naruto is in the library reading again, actually Naruto is sleeping and who is in control of the body is Benji. With the years together they found that Benji could control the young ninja trainee body, something that the raven haired spirit did only when Naruto allowed and needed help in a emergency and on that moment Naruto wanted to rest but Benji wanted to read the contents of a scroll so Naruto allowed Benji to take over while he napped. The duo also found that Naruto could sleep while Benji took over and that when Naruto got the control back he would be rested. A fact that made possible for them do much more things in a day.
Benji mostly would read, perform a chore or other things like that, but mostly when the older man was in control he would only do light things to not worn out the body, of course sometimes Benji would train with Naruto's body when the boy wasn't willing to. Since Benji discovered that he was somehow inside Naruto he decided to learn as much as he could about being a ninja and anything that he could and while Naruto grew Benji made company to the lonely boy and in a way helped to raise him; before even learning to speak Japanese Naruto already could speak in a minor way Portuguese.
In exchange of that Benji began to learn Japanese with Naruto learning while the boy learned in the school, Benji also taught to Naruto the basic martial knowledge that he had among everything that he knew. Naruto grew smart but by Benji's advices only scored the enough to pass hiding the knowledge from the world, but on the times that the other kids would gang up against him Naruto would use the fighting knowledge gained from Benji to beat the kids.
Benji sighs stretching and rolls close the scroll that he was reading, he closes a small notebook that he was writing in and places it on his backpack. He gets up and walks to the elder librarian and hands the scroll to her, thanking her for allowing him to read it. Middle aged woman smiles back to him, after years seeing the young boy and finding him polite and gentle she saw her as a normal boy instead of the demon that everyone else saw.
Benji leaves the library and walks to his apartment, actually Naruto's apartment on the way he stops in a vending machine and buys for himself a orange soda, a pleasure that he indulges himself every time when he takes over Naruto's body. As a spirit he doesn't eat, drink or have any other bodily needs, but when controlling Naruto's body he had to take care of the body's needs and he could taste what he drank and ate, feel the wind on his skin and all the other feelings that as a spirit he couldn't feel.
As he takes the can from the machine slot he notices with the corner of his eyes that a group of older boys have blocked the both ways of the street and by the look on their faces he could tell what they wanted to do. Two of the kids get closer and begins to provoke Naruto, actually Benji; the spirit ignores them what make them angry. It doesn't take much to the two kids try to hit him.
Actually waiting for that Benji neatly sidestepped the attack and punched the boy hard on the face, using the hand that was holding the can. Benji doesn't show the pain that the punch with the can gave to him, later he would have to apologize to Naruto for it, the boy who took the punch falls unconscious with a large bruise on his cheek and a cut on the middle of the cheek letting the others know the strength of the attack.
The sudden knock out of the boy make the others hesitate, Benji uses that time to pull a black bandana from his pocket and wrap the can on it, holding the edges of the cloth after tying a knot under the can, now a makeshift flail. "Please let end this senseless fight here." Benji says as Naruto, of course that the boys doesn't listen to him and decides to attack him all at once. Benji sighs inwardly and defends himself blocking the boys' attacks and attacking back with the flail.
In a couple of minutes it is over, the boys are on the ground holding their injured parts or knocked out and Benji is untying the bandana and popping open the can far from him, the very shaken soda spills over but there is enough to satisfy his thirsty from the battle. He walks away and tosses the can in a trashcan.
Of course later he receives a scolding from the Third Hokage that is just doing it because the parents of the beaten kids pestered him to do so; he was actually impressed with the ten years old boy for taking care of seven boys around twelve years old all by himself. Who actually listened the scolding was Benji, he told to Naruto that he did the mess so he would listen to the scolding; the blonde boy finds it fair and accepts that.
Two years later in Konoha
Naruto is sulking on his seat, by accident he kissed Sasuke his sworn rival and got beated by the class girls. Benji is leaning on the counter behind Naruto chuckling lowly, he knew that it would happen, even with his presence there Naruto turned as he would. Of course he was more popular with the girls thanks to the spirit.
Naruto was the troublemaker boy that he was on the beginning of the anime. Sometimes Benji took over with Naruto's approval mostly during some of the classes that Naruto wanted to nap or in any situation where the blonde boy wanted to sleep when he couldn't. Most of the times Benji acted as Naruto but sometimes he wanted to play a little and acted more as himself and in those times he managed to get some girls interested on him, oddly enough Hinata liked more when Naruto was as himself. Benji could tell that the young girl didn't know why Naruto changed but he knew that she was aware that when he was in control it wasn't Naruto there.
After a while Naruto decides to push the kiss incident to a dark corner of his mind and think about the test that will happen later on that day. He is very excited over it little did he know that he would fail it, even with all the training that he did with Benji inside his mind and the real training he sucked doing the Bunshin No Jutsu. Benji wasn't sure if Naruto would fail on the test, he needed to fail so Mizuki would make Naruto steal the scroll of seals. Benji wanted to read that scroll to get some of the powerful techniques of it from the scroll so he could learn and teach to Naruto to make his host life easier.
And the day runs as it should with Naruto failing the test and later on that day stealing the scroll by Mizuki's orders. By Benji's request Naruto let him take over once he has read the Kage Bunshin No Jutsu. The spirit reads many of the techniques and writes down in a small notebook as many as he can before he hears Iruka approaching and everything runs at it should.
To Naruto's displeasure he spirit locks himself inside of whatever part of his mind or spirit where he stayed, that after hiding the notebook with she secret jutsus away. Naruto misses his life long partner but as Benji said to him to do he acts he normally would.
While Naruto lives the events of what for Benji would be the episode three to twelve, Benji is inside a house on the dreamscape inside Naruto. Dreamscape is how Benji calls the area where he first appeared on Naruto's mind or spirit, he wasn't sure of where it was so he named it, but he found that he could do some changes and create things there, so during the years Benji created a large farm around the house that he crafted there. Inside the house he stored other creations, copies of certain memories or knowledge of Naruto and other things that made the place look like a home.
Currently Benji is studying a copy of the book of the secrets that he copied from the scroll after copying it from Naruto's subconscious mind which oddly enough always appeared to Benji as a library mixed with a storage room. Benji is inside a office on the house reading the techniques of the notebook trying to find a technique that will give him a body; not that he doesn't like Naruto but Benji is kind of tired living as a spirit inside the young ninja, he is tired of having to share a body, not feeling anything when a spirit, not having anyone to talk other than Naruto and actually not having a life and having to parasite on Naruto's life, the young ninja deserved to have his own life.
On the techniques that Benji got from the scroll none of them could help him on that way, thought he did got some really interesting techniques among the seventeen that he managed to get. Seeing that he won't find anything useful for his purposes he leaves the office and the house, sending a silent message to Naruto letting him know that once again he was available.
Naruto jumped happy and shouted a hurray when hearing the message from Benji. Sakura and Sasuke looks at the blonde confused, clearly not understanding why he was so happy, he was failing climbing the trees with his chakra. Now with Benji to cheer and advice him Naruto feels invigorated to keep trying and to show that he is better than Sasuke. Benji watches the two boys training in silence, just giving some moral support to Naruto occasionally.
After the duo mastered the tree climbing with out hands things took an unexpected change the Genin trio is escorting Tazuna around the city, Benji walks besides the group not that he could go anywhere else other than the dreamscape and after three whole years inside it when Naruto was only a baby he was really tired of it.
Sakura looks towards Naruto few times trying to figure why the odd feeling that there was something or someone else around the blonde ninja was back. Tazuna and Sasuke are clueless about Benji's presence. Thru the years Benji got used in living the daily life of Naruto and seeing or even being part of events not show on the anime, but on that moment he felt the hairs of the back of his neck standing on their ends.
Benji looks around, frenetically searching for the source of the tension around him. For the first time Benji forcefully takes control of Naruto's body knowing that he doesn't have time to explain anything. The others stare in shock seeing Naruto blocking empty handed a katana blade, wielded by young woman with long red hair.
Sakura takes Tazuna to a safe distance; Benji looks at the woman's face in the few instants that they stood still. With a sudden movement of his hands to the right side then to the left Naruto breaks the katana blade. Sakura and Sasuke stares surprised with Naruto knowing such advanced defensive taijutsu.
The woman leaps few meters backwards. "Not bad." She commented to Naruto. "I must say that I wasn't expecting that." She winks sexily to him and says. "We will meet again Kurokami-chan." Punctuating her words she blows a kiss to him before disappearing tossing a small smoke bomb.
"What is wrong with that woman!" Sakura spurts not understanding what just happened. "Why she called Naruto of Kurokami-chan if he is blonde?" "Don't ask me, I also don't know." Benji replies as Naruto placing the half of the broken sword that is on his hands on his belt. "But one thing I know it is better that we leave the streets for the safety of the client."
Sakura and Sasuke nod and they quickly move back to Tazuna's house. Benji apologized for the rough takeover; Naruto dismiss it saying that was needed and that his actions made him look cool. Benji chuckle hiding the nagging feeling that he had that the mysterious red head could actually see him.
When they return to the house Tazuna tells to Kakashi what happened and how Naruto dealt with the situation, Kakashi looks at Naruto and praises him, what make Naruto glow with delight. Benji is thinking about the incident, he knew that the entire reason of the attack wasn't to kill Tazuna since the woman left after he broke her sword, the reason was to see how he would react to that threat; Benji knew that he passed in some kind of test and that makes him tense.
End of the prologue.
