The village of Konohagakure is one of the elemental nations' five main ninja villages. It is found in the Hi no Kuni nation. Konoha is known for its teamwork and his 'Will of Fire,' which states that all of the villagers of Konoha are one big family. As a result of the teamwork, one kid's life should be honored as a hero, for saving the village from the Kyuubi no Yoko, who is trapped inside him, and condemning him to a personal hell. Naruto Uzumaki is the name of this young man.
Naruto had hunkered down in his apartment. People will be much more cruel to him now than they were before. He locked his window and gazed longingly at the parents walking the streets with their children, all of whom wore big smiles on their faces. What's to stop you? They rejoiced, they rejoiced in their beloved Yondaime's triumph over the terrifying Kyuubi no Yoko, the nine-tailed Fox, and thus in his saving of Konoha.
But this was not a day to celebrate as much as he would have liked. As soon as the lights went out and the first sake bottles ran dry, the mood of the people shifted from happy to murderous. They wept for their loved ones who had been killed by the Kyuubi, and he, he was their vent, through which they vented their rage, hatred, and vengeance. As he heard the first shouts from the streets, the sun had just vanished behind the horizon.
"Where has the little devil gone?"
"Today we will exact our vengeance!"
"Today, we will rid the village of this pestilence!"
Naruto sat in the corner of his room, hoping they wouldn't find him, but Kami seemed to have no mercy for him, as the door to his apartment burst off the hinges and into the room with a loud thud followed by a loud crack. Soon after, his only safe haven was overrun by an enraged mob out to "purge the village of evil" and "put an end to what the Yondaime started."
Naruto tried desperately to get deeper into the corner of his room, wishing he could simply mold with the wall. But, once again, he had to learn that there was no hope for him. While the rest of the villagers cheered when they heard the snapping of his bones, tendons, and muscles, a few of the stronger villagers formed a ring in the middle of the room and had fun kicking him around like a football, being careful not to hit his head so he remained conscious.
After about 10 to 15 minutes, they had had enough as the shouts to finally kill him became louder and more frequent. Naruto's hoarse, cracked voice could be heard as the civillians looked from one to the next to see who would get the "honour" of killing the demon.
"W-why do you d-do that I nev-er h-h-urt someone."
"Demon, keep quiet!" You murdered my wife and daughter, and you will pay!"
An enraged man yelled back, slowly pulling a knife from his belt. He raised the knife over his head, ready to strike, to the cheers of the other villagers present. Fear gripped Naruto, and he closed his eyes silently, praying that it would be brief and painless. But the man didn't seem to want to end it quickly, as he thrust the knife into Naruto's right shoulder, pinning him to the ground.
He tried to hold back the scream at first because he knew his torturers loved it when he screamed, even in his 6-year-old mind, but as the knife in his shoulder was turned, he couldn't anymore and a scream loud enough to be heard a few blocks around his complex escaped his mouth.
