Reincarnated Kyuubi Quest

You know what a good name is? Itachi.

I'm sure nobody in Konoha would mind if we took that name.
 
[X] Plan Determination.

"I just don't get it Hokage-sama." sniffling, I wipe the tears from my eyes and look into the unnaturally stern face of the Hokage, God of Shinobi. "How am I a demon?" My low whisper barely reaches my own ears. I speak up, "I'm no different than Kitsuchi-kun or any of the other orphans!" Feelings I don't understand well witin me and I feel something somewhat familiar almost lost in the tide.

Anger. Like when that big bully Kenichi-rene hit Akane-neechan cause she didn't want to play with him anymore. 'My anger didn't help me then, and hokage-sama is way stronger than that jerk.'

I felt my feelings change again as my chest stops heaving so hard and my eyes clear. 'I-I... This is weird!' The anger, sadness, confusion...all of it is still there but there's something else. It's stronger than anger and feels kinda like stubbornness. It covers my other emotions and I think clearly.

Hokage-sama opens his mouth to say something, but my words are faster. "I don't understand how I could be something like that I know one thing Hokage-sama. I'm not going to let anything hurt my friends or this village. I don't care if I'm the Kyuubi or what to you because I made a promise once. I said I'd protect my precious people. So go on, laugh or spit or glare or do whatever you want because my name is Kettei, that's Uzumaki Kettei, and I will protect you all. Because THAT is MY ninja way!!"

Well. This took almost took an hour to write, but this is supposed to show he is neither a naruto not a neji. This event is where he develops his first maturity. Like losing his first tooth.

The unkown emotion is determination. Not the blind naivety of Naruto or the misguided ambition of sasuke. It is the steely reserve that a ninja calls upon when outclassed in every way to stand his ground. It is the overwhelming resolve to improve ourselves that we may be better.

And most importantly, it is what will carry us through any amount of opposition as we do what we were always born to do. Protect our precious people.
Isn't that right @Mayfair
Also, the name means determination, but I think that Takehiko meaning military Prince/boy might be better.

So basically he's basically going that much more maturr,sophisticated,and wise fanon version of Naruto.:V

Thinks is almost an insult. hmm.

Not really. Learning he is a reincarnated uberdemon just forced him to grow up for the first time in his life. Never before has his beliefs and world view been challenged to this point. Yes there may have been challenges he has overcome, but this is different than anything else.

After this event, he would likely live his life how he did before, but determination would add to everything he did. In the academy, he could more easily ignore the rumors and focus better( but not completely I bet.) and things would generally be more serious than Canon. He would make friends still. He might even get that dann bunshin down, or not.

Since we will be piloting him henceforth. This seed of determination will open doors to early training (and maybe even allow us to not parallel canon) without kicking us out of our childhood. *Itachi*cough cough * Kakashi*cough cough.
 
[x] Plan: Denial? Isn't that a river?

"I don't get it, sir." You bowed your head to him and forced your eyes shut, trying to push aside the emotions inside of you. He had opened his mouth to speak, but your words forced their way out of you and you talked over him.

"I don't get it. H-How can I be the Kyuubi, sir? How can I be such a monster, someone who destroyed so many people? I'm just. . . I'm just Ryuu, sir. I can't be anything else then that." You looked up again, watching as the Hokage opened his mouth to speak again, but none of the words hit you. Water filled your sight, and you shook, and all you could think of was--monsters--and you weren't, you weren't a. . .

"Y-You must have the wrong boy, Hokage-sama. I'm just. . . I can't be anybody other then who I am. I want to serve Konoha, I want to fight for our country, but. . . I'm going to do that because, because I'm Ryuu, because I want to be Good, not because I'm some. . . some. ." You stop being able to make sensible words. You grabbed at the air in front of you for support, before you shook your head again.

"I'm. . . I'm just Ryuu, sir. And I'm going to be the best Konoha's ever had. So when you find whoever that monster really is, tell them t-to watch out, because I'm going to be stronger, and I'm going to make it so they can never hurt Konoha again."

This is really good. Thanks for sharing your idea!
 
From what I see, regardless of the how he acts or the way he is named, you all want the MC to go full Shounen and 'prove' he is not a monster by his actions, correct? Just trying to compile the data I have since a specific win by number seems out of reach at the moment, and I'd rather be able to post something new sometimes tomorrow and get this show on the road.
 
I would like to conform my vote closer to alioth's, but I think that instead of refusing we are the fox outright. Maybe we can reach a compromise of disbelief and a lurking acceptance. @alioth would you collaborate with me to provide Mayfair a cohesive answer. Since ours are somewhat similar?
 
[x] Plan: Denial? Isn't that a river?

Oh no my heart is telling me to hug a fictional child

Although I do think that naming a former Fox 'dragon' Is a bit weird, but what can ya do?

I'd really rather not have the character go for lurking acceptance at this point.

As I see it, at the moment, Not!Naruto isn't okay. He's scared, he's confused, he's weak, and he still views the world in Black and White. He doesn't really understand what's going on here, and he really can't understand what's going on here. Viewing himself as the Kyuubi would require himself to view himself as part of that Black, part of that evil that's all throughout the world, and that'd break away at him. Maybe when he's older, he can realize that he was the Kyuubi all along; when he's gotten more of the Kyuubi's powers and memories, and the context to understand them that comes with those things. When he has a better support network, and can come to accept that the being the Kyuubi doesn't mean he has to be evil like the Kyuubi was.

Right now, I think, accepting that he was the Kyuubi would break Not!Naruto. Why would he want to get strong, if he's evil, and if he's spent so much time destroying everything that he loves? Why would he ever trust anyone ever again if they lied to him and didn't tell him that he was the Kyuubi? Was every nice thing that ever happened to him just calculated to not make this horrible monster mad? Refusal/denial, on the other hand, gives him a clear task and test. Become stronger then the Kyuubi, prevent it from every hurting anyone again, and make sure that nobody ever thinks of him as a devil ever again. So for now, complete denial. When he's older and understands more, he can realize that some part of him was the Kyuubi, but he can also realize that by doing everything he could to get stronger and to fight against the Kyuubi, he's made it so that the Kyuubi really can never harm Konoha again.

Yes, but it's representative that this character wants to be the 'dragon' that swallows the Fox. It's definitely not part of a cunning plan to call bijuudamas 'hadoukens' if we ever unlock them.

That was lovely. :)

Here, have yourself a Soul Shard. It's a bit early for it to be any use yet, but with it you will be able to change a failure into a success OR to request a Canon Omake about a subject of your choice whenever you wish. I won't be giving those too often, so think carefully before using it!

I'll be sure to save it for only the worst situations--like losing a Ramen Eating contest.

To be fair, Hiruzen's half expecting he's really talking to a centuries old fox right now as unlike in canon he don't have the reassurance of a healthy and alive Naruto and a properly functioning seal to put his mind at ease. In this quest, it really IS the Kyuubi he's talking to, that he may really be reborn in every way including the mind and soul or not.
 
A modified version of @TotallyNotEvil 's vote

[X] "So what Sarutobi-sama,I'm still Uzumaki Ryuu" you said with a mixture of anger,betrayal,and defiance in your voice.I don't care about what you or anyone else say I did in a previous life, and nothing else! I'm going to be ninja because I want to be a ninja and I will be one of the greats.And I will use this as a opportunity to prove all of you wrong.

Happy as I'm, I feel like voting for @alioth , even though I disagree in parts, out of the sheer quality he put in. Wow, rare times those "I'm going to get stronger and protect people" speeches don't come out cheesy, but touching.

Dem feels got me again.

@Mayfair While I'd very much like to prove Ryuu-kun here is his own person, we can do perfectly fine without shonen tropes. At least without friendship power.
 
[x] Plan Holyfuckingshitdoyoureallyexpectafiveyearoldtoprocessthisshitinanymeaningfulway

"Okay." Stay silent. Keep your head down. You aren't a child. You don't get to be a child. You don't deserve to be a child. Everyone hates you and will hate you, and for good reason. Speak only when spoken to. Say only as much as you need to. Do what you are asked. Don't question it. Hokage-sama knows best.

...why does everything look so...empty?
 
[x] Plan Holyfuckingshitdoyoureallyexpectafiveyearoldtoprocessthisshitinanymeaningfulway

Actually, this calls to me.
 
Yeah...I'm in the camp that Hiruzen made the right call waiting as long as possible before telling Naruto jack shit.

You talk about this like Not!Naruto breaking would somehow not be interesting to read.
