A/N Hello fellow FF members and visitors alike! This is 9tailsfox2 with my new story A Fall to Remember. I do not know if I want this to stay as a one-shot or continue. You people decide! Or rather think about it while reading this... Italics is thoughts and dream. Got this idea from 11 tailed-vegtable's fic, Red and orange: the flames of youth.

Disclaimer: Pfffft if I owned Naruto I would have Hanabi as an active character in the series.

Warning: Tearjerker, RAPE (As in chapter 3 of Saving Her status) YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

"Hey guys, have you noticed that the Boss has been down lately?" Konohamaru held his hands behind his head with a concerned look.

Udon sniffled and nodded. "Yeah, I'm worried about him. Do you think that what happened three months ago is finally getting to him?"

Konohamaru shook his head. "That and all the others things that have happened."

Moegi shook her head. "I've noticed two months ago. I tried talking to him, but…"

Udon sniffled again, stupid allergies. "Well nothing we can do about it now. We should find him and then cheer him up. Everyone have their radios?"

Konohamaru and Moegi both nodded. "Yeah, we do. I just hope Naru-Kun is doing ok…"

Konohamaru rolled his eyes. "Can you stop calling him that!?"

Thanks to her ever present blush, Moegi did not need to try and hide it. "He likes it."

Konohamaru then smirked. "You have a crush on him, don't you?"

Moegi shook her head. "No it's not like that."

Konohamaru leaned in closer. "Alright, I'll let it go for now. We have more urgent matters." Konohamaru then held his fist up. "Because we have a boss to cheer up!"

Moegi and Udon smiled then Udon spoke. "We should split up. To cover more ground."

The three looked at each other, nodded, and went off to their searching.

Naruto sighed as he looked down the Hokage Monument.

Ever since he failed to stop Mizuki getting away with the scroll, his life has been downhill.

Everyone hated him even more for letting the sacred scroll being stolen. Everyone blamed him.

It wasn't his fault at all, it was Mizuki's. A trusted Chuunin turned traitor and used Naruto and his depression to get the scroll.

That didn't matter and the only reason he was not rotting in jail waiting for a death sentence was because Jiji knew that he, Naruto Uzumaki was innocent.

It took a while but he did manage to get over that and decided to try again next year, that is until the day he got over it was the day Team 7 come back. Team 7 consisted of Sasuke, his friend/rival, Sakura, his crush and some other random kid whose name he did not bother trying to learn. What Team 7 came back, everybody was gravely injured with a missing person and the worst yet, they had failed the mission. Apparently they were supposed to escort some old drunk bridge builder to some small trade isolated town.

Unfortunately the Bridge Builder left out some important details, like how it was controlled by a drug lord and the fact he sent S-Rank criminals after the team. They all managed to survive up until the final battle on the almost completed bridge itself.

The result: the unknown kid died, Sasuke, Sakura and their sensei were injured and were only spared by a stroke of luck that when the one who sent the S-Rank criminal tried to kill the S-Rank himself.

With that, the S-Rank fought the drug lord and cronies himself and Team 7 used that as their way of escape.

The S-Rank barely managed to kill the guy after ripping through half of the people opposing him.

After that, whoever was left on the enemy side raped all the women and children, kept the "good" ones, killed the "bad" ones and almost three-quarters the people there. Of course everyone fought back, but was unsuccessful. They left everyone else to deal with the, taking their now essential sex slaves with them.

Naruto gagged at thought of a man witnessing his own child and wife getting- No don't go there, please brain do not go there… raped.

Naruto grit his teeth as he continued on thinking what happened in the last few months.

It was the Chuunin Exams, as luck would have it, there was third gennin that would join Sakura and Sasuke, but it was not meant to be. Team 7 had a run in with Orochimaru, the S-Class, no not S-Class, more like Sage-Class criminal. The snake sennin was clever and bit Sasuke and put some poisonous power in him. Chances are one would die upon receiving the bite, so in that aspect, Sasuke was lucky to survive, but in the aspect of all the pain of his past catching up, he was sure Sasuke would have rather died at that point.

A month later, the Chuunin Exams came up and of Neji whooped the kid's ass, and the rest of the fights did not even matter as the most anticipated one went to hell upon first blood, which Sasuke drew. Apparently Sasuke's opponent had chakra demon sealed inside him, just like Naruto himself.

Sasuke's opponent was about to change when his siblings managed to get him far enough so there would not be complete destruction, but why the hell did Sakura follow? Sasuke he knew enough would die just to finish a fight and with the new power Sasuke had, he had no doubt that Sasuke would have survived? But neither of them knew of the true terror of a demon. Sakura died during the fight and it was only until the siblings came back and sealed the demon back up. Sasuke was once again gravely injured and the Hokage, his Jiji was dead

Naruto began having his tears fall when he heard that his crush died. Naruto shook his head as his unstoppable though train rushed to its destination and the brakes were broken. Naruto balled up his fists so tightly, they bled.

A group who called themselves the Akatsuki went after Naruto. Naruto used all the clones he could produce, but the one who looked like Sasuke saw through his tricks and captured him and it was only because of Sasuke and some old white haired dude that he managed to survive the encounter. He was scared shitless, literally.

Naruto shook his head as he remembered Sasuke confronting him and attempting to kill him. Sasuke said, "I'll kill my best friend to gain the next Sharingan."

Naruto, desperate, then finally heard the Kyuubi's voice. "Let me take over and I will fight for you."

That is what he did. He let that damned fox take over and fight. Sasuke ended up dying and then a lot of ninja surrounded him and sealed his chakra. Naruto was questioned on what had happened and some guy name Inoichi checked his mind. For some reason he was let once again, maybe thanks to this Inoichi guy but he did not know.

Naruto got his mind back in focus. These events took their toll and now he did not think he could recover. The Ramen stand people might miss him, and the three kids who hung around him all the time might miss him, but they will get over it. The Ramen people probably only liked him for money, Konohamaru probably only liked him because he had the time when no one else had. As for Udon, well it was more like he hung with Konohamaru then Naruto. Moegi… out of everyone, Moegi, despite being 9 years old, she probably understood what he was going through the most, and because of the talks they had.

While what he shared he did not go into detail much like she did not go into much detail as to why everyone bullied her so much at the orphanage. Out of everyone, Moegi or how he liked to call her… Moe-Chan, I'm going to miss you the most. If it wasn't for the talks we had, I probably would have done this a long time ago. Talking did help for a while, but there is only so much a person can take. Naruto took a deep breath as he stood on top of The Fourth Hokage's monument, tied a rope around one of the locks of hairs on the stone head, tied a noose around his neck and walked to the edge.

Naruto jumped and he heard a scream coming from the person whom he least wanted to see this happen. "Naru-Kun!"

Moegi broke away from the group when they decided to disperse to search for Naruto. She knew where he would be now. Oh Naru-Kun, I hope you are doing alright. With everything that has been happening, I really hope you don't kill yourself.

Moegi liked Naruto, more than as a friend not only because he is the only person who would make himself available for her, he would always listen to her about her problems and in turn she would listen to his.

Moegi did not tell him everything and she knew Naruto did not tell her everything. All she told him was that everyone called her names such as dog, slut and other names. Moegi started tearing up as she remembered what led to them making fun of her.

Three years ago, when she was still in the orphanage she was finally adopted by a couple. Moegi was happy that she finally had people who cared about her. Like Naruto, her parents died before she could even remember them. She never had people in her life to take care of her. Well of course there was the orphanage, but all they did was clothed and fed her, there was no love.

So when Moegi finally arrived to her supposed home, they put a leash on her. Apparently they wanted a dog and could not afford one, so they decided to use a child. What they did was humiliating. The child they had was only a few months old and probably would be brainwashed into treating her like a dog.

Moegi was fed dog food and if she was lucky if she got away with scraps of food. They didn't even treat her like a dog; all they did was put a leash on and forced her to bark. The "father" would even use an anal bead tail on her. Her virginity was stolen because of that cruel man. Those nights were especially painful, physically, mentally and emotionally

Two and a half years later, she managed to escape successfully for once but was quickly caught and dragged back to the hell she was brought into when she was "adopted."

Moegi thought she would never escape again but apparently a neighbor or someone who knew those people or at least used to then called the police and they quickly came the next day and she was brought back into the orphanage, but the damage already has been done. She was already defiled, dirty, and a slut.

Somehow, one of the kids found out what she has been through and began making fun of her and told everyone. This tortured her and was about to kill herself when Udon, a new kid, happened along and started questioning why she was about to commit suicide. She explained to him that everybody else was making fun of her and that she could not take it anymore, not the whole story, but enough so Udon would understand.

Udon offered to be her friend, but he was not much for emotional support and then she began going to ninja school where she and Udon met Konohamaru, an outgoing kid with whom they made friends with. Konohamaru was also not the type of person not to talk to with her problems.

Then Konohamaru introduced her to Naruto. Naruto was depressed about not passing, but Moegi managed to convince try again for a fourth time. Naruto was better for a time and like how she listened to and advised Naruto, he did the same with her, though she never told him what exactly happened. Then things started going to hell, a failure in a mission resulted in the complete destruction of a small time village and the families that lived in there, resulting in a giant forced prostitution ring, made up not only women, but children as well.

Then his crush, Sakura, who did not even deserve his love, died, then his pseudo grandfather, his Jiji, the Third Hokage died and then his best friend died. She did not know the exact details, but Naruto was clearly feeling guilty about something from what he told her. Moegi even gave him a Kunai, which had a ribbon tied around it. She explained that the ribbon was the actual gift; the kunai was just something in addition to her gift. In return, which she did not ask for anything, she received a necklace that Naruto said that Jiji, whom he called the now dead Third Hokage said was his mother's.

The necklace piece was a round flat donut shaped green jade with a dragon on it. Moegi loved that necklace and was sure Naruto loved that ribbon just as much and as proof, Naruto wore that ribbon around his wrist.

Moe-Chan, that was what Naruto called her all the time. Moegi loved that nick name and would only let Naruto call her that, much like how she would call Naruto Naru-Kun.

Moegi fought off the tears as she arrived at her destination only to see that Naruto, her Naru-Kun was jumping off with a rope around his neck. Moegi with wide eyes charged before Naruto began falling. "Naru-Kun!"

Naruto saw that Moegi was rushing towards him, to stop him from completing his goal. Naruto shook his head as quickly brought out the Kunai Moegi gave him and cut the rope but now he had another problem, he was falling down a cliff to his death.

Naruto quickly tried to grab the edge of the cliff, but failed and began falling past the forehead and made one last attempt to save himself by grabbing the rope, and was successful. Naruto took a deep breath, and then remembered that Moegi was running to fast to stop herself, especially on the wet stone. Naruto quickly reached out his hand in time to catch the falling Moegi that slipped off the head.

"Hold on to me tightly Moe-Chan I'm going to need both hands to climb up."

Moegi only nodded as she held onto Naruto as tightly as possible.

Naruto managed to get himself up and crawled to safe ground and only then held onto Moegi.

Moegi then began crying. "Oh Naru-Kun, you were going to kill yourself!"

Naruto shook his head. "I did not want you to see that."

Moegi cried even harder. "You were going to leave me all alone! I knew it you hate me!"

Naruto held onto Moegi tightly. "I was going to kill myself not because of you, but because I killed my best friend. Even if the Kyuubi was controlling me, these very hands have his blood on them."

Moegi then remembered that Naruto told her the reason everyone hated him. "So it wasn't you, it was that fox."

Naruto shook his head. "But you don't understand Moe-Chan this body was the one that did it."

Moegi broke contact and looked deeply in Naruto's eyes. "Were you the one controlling the body?"

Naruto shook his head. "No, but-"

Moegi smiled and held on his cheek. "Then it wasn't you."

Naruto then smiled as well. "Thank you Moe-Chan I needed that, but I'm still hurt… listen, I hear that you still live in that orphanage, but it's late, do you… want to come stay with me for a while. I'm going to need company and someone to talk to. I'm thinking that person would be you."

Moegi nodded. "Yeah, that would be nice. Your place would be so much better than what the orphanage offers."

With that, Naruto and Moegi went off back to Naruto's apartment.

When they arrived Naruto brought out some clothes and a towel for Moegi to take a shower. Naruto turned to Moegi and smiled. "I'll go take my shower first, and then I will make some food. You must be hungry."

Moegi nodded. "Yeah, I am."

It took Naruto ten minutes to shower and get out, and then it was Moegi's turn. When Moegi shut the door, she looked at her image in the mirror as she got undressed and began whispering to herself, whispering words that echoed through her painful memories. "You are nothing but a dog and a whore. All you ever do is let me cum inside you."

Moegi snapped out of it as she could almost feel cum, his cum and blood her blood drip down her leg. Moegi quickly turned on the shower and shut the curtain and began crying as she still felt the pain between her legs.

Naruto was just finishing up the food, which was pasta and Moegi final came out. 30 minutes? I probably should not ask…

Moegi came in as she smelled the food and smiled. "The pasta smells good."

Naruto nodded as he served the food on the table. "Wow Moegi, you look so nice with your hair down like that."

Moegi blushed. "Thank you Naru-Kun."

Naruto nodded his head. "No problem, come on, eat up, you are probably hungry.

Moegi and Naruto sat down. "Itadikimatsu!"

With that they dug in. They were so hungry that they went through the two pounds Naruto had made, well mostly consumed by Naruto, but Moegi still ate a lot for a 9 year old.

Moegi with a contented smile yawned. "That was so good, but I'm tired now."

Naruto also yawned. "You can use my bed; I'll just sleep on the couch."

Moegi nodded then hugged Naruto. "Ok. Thank you Naru-Kun for taking me in."

Naruto smiled. "No problem Moe-Chan."

Moegi smile as well as she went off to Naruto's room to sleep in. (She's been over his house before.)

Naruto settled onto the couch with his blankets and pillow and fell asleep.

Moegi did the same but then she started having her nightmare again.

RAPE START

Moegi finally had a home at the age of 6 and was happy, that is until they slapped a collar on her and treated her like an unloved dog. That was about a week ago and she tried to escape every time she got the chance to, but failed miserably. She had to crawl around the house naked, but walked whenever no one was looking.

Moegi though no one was looking until the "father" came up behind her and started touching her. "You know that dogs aren't supposed to walk on two legs. Now I'm going to punish you."

Moegi felt those man's hands rubbing her nipples with one hand and the other was traveling down to between her legs. "N-Noo d-don't"

The man smirked. "Dogs are supposed to bark, but then again dogs are supposed to have tails."

Moegi did not like the tone of the man's voice and her fears were founded as he showed her a tail with beads strung to it. "Get on all fours like a dog should be."

Moegi tried running but was stopped by the man and dragged her into his room. "St-Stop this. N-Now. What would your wife say?"

The man smiled. "She already knows I'm doing this and bark like you are supposed to, or this tail is going in."

Moegi was crying hard but was still able to speak. "W-Woof."

The man then slid his finger in her butt and began moving it around. "It's only my finger, but I want you to imagine what the tail would do. Now bark like you mean it."

Moegi shook her head. "Woof! Woof! Woof!"

The man smiled. "You know I would have put the tail in no matter what you did."

Moegi went wide eyed as she felt the beads enter her butt. "St-Stop it, p-please…"

The man then lined himself up with her. "I'm going to take away your virginity now, you slut, whore, dog."

Moegi shook her head. "N-NoooOOOOO!" Moegi then felt the worst pain between her legs.

The man went all in one thrust and continued moving without letting her adjust. "Damn Moegi you are so tight."

Moegi shuddered as she felt the pain getting worse. "ST-STOP I-IT! I-IT HURTSSSSS!"

The man then began playing the tail. "I'll stop playing with your ass if you bark."

Moegi could not stop the tears flowing down as she complied. "WOOF! WOOF! WOOF!"

The man grunted as his increasingly fast thrusts became heavy. "I-I'm going to cum."

With that Moegi suddenly felt an explosion between her legs and looked down as she saw her blood and some white stuff flowing down her legs and what she probably guessed was this 'cum'. All of a sudden the man brought his penis to her face and let out the excess and some cum fell in her mouth. "I-It t-tastes t-terrible."

The man only smirked as he shoved it in her mouth. "Clean it."

After that he threw her out the room and left her to wash herself and cry her heart out as the scene replayed over in her head.

RAPE END

Moegi then shot up screaming; sweating from the nightmare or rather memory of the first time she was defiled.

"Moegi!" Naruto was woken up by the scream and was about to rush into the room when he heard her whispering to herself.

"N-No, p-please st-stop. N-No, i-it hurts s-so much. P-please, i-it tastes terrible. N-No d-don't p-put it in there." Naruto then opened the door and saw her in fetal position and crying.

Naruto then slowly approached her. "Moe-Chan, did you have a nightmare?"

Moegi looked up and launched into Naruto's arms and cried into his chest. "Please d-don't let go of me."

Naruto held her tightly. "It's ok, I won't ever let go you can let it all out."

Moegi cried really hard as she crawled up and cried on his shoulder, making as much contact with her body and Naruto's body as much as possible for the comfort of course.

After a while Moegi finally calmed down. "There now Moe-Chan, do you feel better now?"

Moegi nodded. "Yeah, I do."

Naruto then began rubbing Moegi's back. "So, do you want to tell me what your nightmare was about?"

Moegi was really hesitant. "Are you sure you want to know Naru-Kun?"

Naruto shook his head. "You need to talk about it. You can trust me, I won't tell anyone. I promise."

Moegi then sighed. "Can we lay down first?"

Naruto nodded his head as they lay down and brought the covers over them and held onto Moegi tightly. "Ok so tell me. It's ok you can take your time."

Moegi nodded. "My nightmare was the first time I was raped, when I was first adopted." With a lot of emotional difficulty she explained to Naruto how she was treated since she was six years old. Thankfully, Naruto was there to hold and help her through this. "To this day, I-I could still feel him, between my legs, inside me…"

Naruto was real pissed at how someone could do that to a child. The crime was monstrous beyond description, beyond humanity. This type of crime is the worst to commit and that point one doesn't deserve to be called human anymore, nor should they deserve to live.

Naruto held Moegi tighter than ever. "I will never let anything happen to you."

Moegi shook her head. "You can't promise that."

Naruto sighed. "I know I can't, but what I can promise is to protect you with my life, to make you happy for life. I really hated seeing you like that you know."

Moegi sniffled. "Thanks Naru-Kun."

Naruto smiled. "No problem Moe-Chan."

Moegi sighed. "C-Can you sleep with me for tonight. I'm scared I'll have that same nightmare again."

Naruto nodded. "Yeah, I guess I will."

Moegi took a deep breath and out he face close to his and was blushing harder than her own ever present blush. "You know Naru-Kun. I like you a lot, more than as a friend."

Naruto, who blushed shook his head. "Can we discuss this later Moe-Chan?"

Moegi then shook her head. "No, I feel like if I don't get this out in the open, it never will until it is too late. I like you Naru-Kun, not just like but like-like."

Naruto felt something in his chest, something he could not describe. "Moe-Chan… a-are you sure?"

Moegi nodded her head. "You were the only one who would listen to me and talk with me, you were the only who cared enough to actually check with me in the orphanage, you were the only one to offer his home so I don't have to sleep in that terrible place called the orphanage. Plus, I could tell that you care a lot about me."

Naruto then smiled as he figured out what he did feel in his chest. "I think… I think I might like you too, but don't you think that this is a bit much, especially after that nightmare of yours?"

Moegi shuddered at the memory. "That's in the past now and even though I still have scars from those nights even though I still have nightmares, I'm trying to get past it, and I'm hoping that a relationship might help, you know to take my mind off things?"

Naruto smiled. "Alright, as much as I want to say no, if you really believe that it will help you, then yes, we can be together."

Moegi smiled as she felt herself gravitate towards Naruto, and Naruto did the same as their lips met.

After their air ran out and they took a breath, Naruto could only think of one thing "I will make you happy for the rest of your life, I promise."

Moegi smiled. "Thank you and I promise you the same."

Naruto smiled. "Let's get to sleep; I'm pretty sure you are tired."

Moegi only held onto Naruto tighter. "Yeah… hey, tonight you were about to fall off a cliff, but now you are falling for me."

Naruto could only smile even more at that. "Yeah I guess so and this going to be one fall to remember."

With that, the two went to sleep with each other's faces inches away from each other as they held each other really tight, not wanting to lose contact, having sweet dreams about each other with the last words they heard from each other, echoing in their minds…

"I love you."

A/N That was great chapter. Ahhh I could see the reviews now... "Burn in hell!", "You are piece of shit for putting this up!"... Well considering the pairing, there probably isn't going to be that many reviews... You do realize the more you post reviews like that, the more numb I grow to them. You people should realize the type of work I produce now, especially after Saving Her. Well for those who know that my work is not all rainbows and candy, what do you think? Should I leave this as a one-shot? Should I continue? Please tell.

Like always R&R and this is 9tailsfox2 signing off!
