Naruto Generations

Chapter 1 - The New Generation

"You know you'll have to make a move sometime. You can't dodge my jutsu all day," Yumiko yelled. It was usually hard to hit someone who uses the sharingan but I had her figured out. I jumped back to catch my breath.

"Dodge this, Fire Style: Twin Fire Dragons," I shouted. Flames shot from my hands and from them emerged two fire dragons. Each dragon flew towards Yumiko.

"Come on, is that the best you've got? Ice Style: Ice Senbon," she said. I felt the temperature drop instantly. I stopped the dragons and pulled them back to my sides. Yumiko held her arms out and hundreds of thin, sharp, ice senbon formed around her. She threw her arms out and sent the senbon towards me.

"This is nothing. Fire Style:Twin Dragons River Fire," I said. Both dragons reared up and breathed intense flames. The senbon melted as they touched the flames. Both streams of fire continued towards her. Just as the flames were about to reach her, a wall of ice surrounded her. My dragons disappeared and I rushed to Yumiko. I punched the ice wall and found it was near unbreakable. I jumped back and glared at her through the ice.

"You're going to have to try harder than that. Ice Style:Glacial Break," she yelled. She clapped her hands together and the ice began to crack. Suddenly, the ice wall exploded into hundreds of ice shards. I jumped around frantically dodging shards. Yumiko jumped and brought her heel down but I blocked her. She leaned back and caught herself on her hands. She brought her legs around and tried to trip me. I jumped and punched down. She moved and I hit the ground. The earth around me was ripped up and destroyed. The dust made it hard for me to see. I could just barely make out her figure.

I slung both my arms out blowing the dust away. The wind was strong enough to knock her over. She slowly stood up and regained her footing. Yumiko glared at me. I knew she was mad at me for tearing up the training field again.

"Why do you always have to break everythi..." I grabbed her by the arm, pulled her to me, and kissed her. Her lips and body were as cold as the ice style she uses. As I wrapped my arms around her waist, she wrapped hers around my neck. She pulled her face away from me.

"You know, I can make the air a thousand below zero and I wouldn't feel it, but I can always feel your warmth," she said. Her eyes were still in the sharingan form. "I know this is all of a sudden but could you promise me something. Something that only you can do for me," she asked. Her sharingan faded away and brought forth her natural deep blue eyes.

"Yeah, what is it," I asked. She looked almost sad but somehow happy.

"If I ever feel cold, I want you to keep me warm okay," she said. She looked at me with hopeful eyes. As I stared back, I could sense something more, like there was something she wasn't telling me.

"Of course I will," I said. I don't know what she's thinking but I'm sure this won't be the last time we talk about this.

"Now come here, and warm me up," Yumiko said. She blushed and kissed me again. The effects of her jutsu wore off and the temperature returned to normal. Now her lips were moist.

"Is it possible for the two of you to keep your hands off each other," a voice said.

It was Yumiko's brother, Raikou. My sister was standing next to him.

"Give them a break. I think they look cute together," Saika said. She was wearing a silk blue dress with a golden eagle printed on the bottom half of it.

"Why are you all dressed up sis," I asked my sister.

"My boyfriend is taking me out to a new restaurant. Haji told me to look as beautiful as I possibly could, I found Raikou here and we thought we'd stop by here to see you guys," she explained.

"Oh honey, your hair looks beautiful straightened! Come here let me show you what you can do with it now," Yumiko said. She pulled Saika off to the side and started playing with her hair.

"Anyway, I need your help with something Ketsuo," Raikou asked. Lightning sparked from his hand and the look in his eyes became serious. This day was really weird so far. First, Yumiko asked me to keep her warm and now her brother wants to test his chidori.

"Why the sudden urge to test this out? You sound a lot like your dad," I said.

"There's just something I want to know and I think this is the only way I can find the answer. So can you help me," Raikou asked. He is my best friend so I know he wouldn't be asking me to do this if it wasn't important.

"Yeah, lets do this," I said. He smirked and he activated his sharingan.

"Alright Ketsuo, don't hold back. Come at me with everything you've got," He said.

Raikou and I jumped back and stared at each other. Lightning began surging from his left hand. I had a new type of rasengan at my disposal.

If he wanted me to go all out, this should do it. I began to form the rasengan in my hand. When it was completed, I used some fire chakra and the rasengan burst into flames. I could see that got Raikou excited.

"Wait, what the hell are you guys doing," Yumiko yelled. Before she could finish her sentence, Raikou and I rushed full speed towards each other. Our jutsu clashed sending flames and lightning everywhere. For a moment, I felt an urge unlike anything I've ever felt before. I began feeling murderous and when I sensed this, power surged through me. The flames raging from my rasengan intensified and I could hear a voice in my head. I stared into the fire racing around me and I thought I saw a dragon form in the flames. It roared and I could feel the jutsu starting to break. Finally, our jutsu canceled out and both of us were sent skidding across the ground. The last thing I remember was hearing that voice again. Before I could try to make out what it said, I blacked out.

Two days later...

"Naruto, I don't know what make of this," I heard a familiar voice speaking. It was Lady Tsunade. I didn't know where I was. I could barely open my eyes but I saw my mom sitting in a chair next to me. It didn't take me long to figure out I was in the leaf hospital. I could feel a breeze coming through the window. The sky was tinted orange so I knew it was late in the evening.

"He shouldn't be alive. I don't know how he could have survived. He literally had flames rush through his body. And I don't know what to make of those markings on his body. They disappeared over night and now he looks just fine. Its just a matter of finding out if he knows anything when he wakes up," Lady Tsunade explained.

What exactly happened to me? I remember a dragon and a voice but nothing else. Nobody seemed to notice that I had partially opened my eyes.

"So, what can we do," my dad asked. I could hear the concern in his voice. I could feel my mom brushing her hand gently through my hair.

"For now he seems to be healing remarkably well. We just need to keep close watch on his vitals. Don't worry, he's the Hokage's son, I think he'll be just fine." Lady Tsunade said. She left the room and my dad sat on the other side of the bed.

"Hinata, please tell me our son is going to be okay," dad said. He was acting like I was about to die but I knew that he was just scared and worried.

"Don't worry honey, he'll be fine. We just need to be here for him. I think I might be overthinking this but maybe theres more to him than we thought.," mom said.

"I think you're right, I just don't know what it is," dad said. I opened my eyes fully and tried to sit up but my entire body was racked with pain.

"Baby, don't try to move so much," mom said. She helped me sit up.

"How do you feel Ketsuo," dad asked. I could see most of the fear had left him.

"Everything hurts and I can't remember anything," I replied. Each muscle in my body pulsed with pain but it didn't hurt so much when I sat still. "What happened," I asked.

"You and Raikou clashed jutsu, something went wrong, and you blacked out. You've been like this for two days," dad answered. "We know most of the story after the kids told us, but what happened to you," he asked. My mom moved closer to me.

"Its okay honey, you can tell us if you know anything.

We just need to know if you can remember," mom said.

"Before I do, I didn't hurt Raikou did I," I asked. I was scared the know the answer.

"No, he's fine. Yumiko, Raikou, and your sisters are all worried sick about you. Yumiko especially," mom said. "They are all waiting at home for you," she added.

"So do you want to tell us what happened," dad asked.

"When our jutsu clashed I felt something," I began. I really didn't want to tell them about what I could remember. I knew it would only raise their concern.

"What did you feel," mom asked. I hesitated for a moment.

"Murderous, evil, bloodlust," I said. I paused between each word. I could see that my mom was worried. She placed her hand over her mouth.

"Why did you feel like that Ketsuo? We all know that isn't like you," dad said.

"I don't know, but I've never felt stronger. And there's more," I replied. I clenched my fists ignoring the pain shooting through my arms

"What is it baby," mom asked. I'm not entirely sure how they would react to this.

"I thought I saw a dragon form in the flames from my rasengan and I thought I heard a voice speaking to me. I couldn't make out what it said," I explained. The color on my parents faces turned ghost white and they looked scared to death. My mom's hand clenched my arm a tighter.

"Ketsuo, did you say a dragon," dad asked. His voice became dead serious.

"Yeah, dad what's this about? Why do you look so scared," I asked. I looked to my mom and she had her other hand on her chest as if she couldn't breathe. As soon as I answered my dad, he stood up and left the room.

"Mom, where is he going? What's going on," I asked. Mom looked like she wanted to tell me something. She picked up both of my hands and held them tightly.

"Baby, there's something we need to tell you but now isn't the time. You can come home tomorrow and we'll tell you then. For right now, your father and I need to talk with Sasuke and Sakura," she explained. Here voice was frantic and she was speaking fast.

"Mom, please tell me what's happening. Why are you guys acting so weird," I asked. Now I was scared and confused.

"I'm sorry baby, I can't. Not now. I have to go, I love you Ketsuo," she said. She got up and kissed my forehead. She rushed out of the room and now I was alone.
