Chapter 1: Surprises!
Two figures bounded across the forest, skidding past trees and leaping onto branches while dodging accurately thrown kunai and the occasional shuriken. Blood poured from various wounds that littered both mask figures, but they continued to push themselves onward, the gates of the village was nearly in sight. A yell caused one of the figures to pause and glanced in the direction the call came from.
Eyes widening behind the mask, he blindly grabbed a kunai, hands gripped the hilt as he pulled it free and tossed it near his companions back, a heartbeat later, the figure vanished only to appear above his friend, a spiraling ball of blue chakra spinning in his hand, he slammed it into the hulk of a man standing inches from his comrade.
The man gave a yell of pain and threw his hand forward, a hidden blade leaving the confines of the Iwagakure's sleeves. Sliding beneath the protective armor covering the fox masked ANBU's chest, to enter the cavity, causing a grunt to escape.
Fox's companion, Cat, whipped around and with a cry of fox's name, cat leaped towards the man, lightning forming in his palm, the cry of a thousand birds filled the clearing would be the last thing the man will ever gear before the eternal abyss of blackness overtook him and his body fell lifelessly to the ground. "Naruto, are you alright?"
Fox, or Naruto, turned and gave a nod, hand clutching at the newly made wound, "We need to hurry back to the village. Sasuke. We won't be able to last longer; your practically out of chakra and I'm in no condition to continue fighting."
Cat, or Sasuke grunted, "Yeah, let's go," Taking a step forward, Sasuke quivered, his knees bucked and he pitched forward, "Shit." was the last thing he said before falling unconscious, chakra exhaustion settling in.
Naruto sighed, "Damn you Sasuke, I just said I was in no condition to fight, what makes you think I was in any position to actually carry your ass back to the village." despite his complaints, Naruto removed his hands from the hole in his chest and leaned down, picking up the older make, "You owe me teme."
The run to the village took longer due to his exhaustion but as the village gates came into view, Naruto wasted no time in pouring what was left of his chakra into his legs, relying on Kurama's energy to keep him going until he reached to Tsunade. "Izumo! Kotetsu! Open the gates. I don't have time to chat right now." Naruto yelled towards the gate guards, who upon seeing their youngest friend and his companion quickly had the gates open, allowing Naruto to run through with no delay.
Removing his mask, he hid it inside his pouch, doing the same for Sasuke, allowing the older make to breath easier without the obstacle blocking his face. As they neared the tower, Naruto was met with a big interference in the form of a girl, and the term is used loosely, with pink hair, green eyes narrowed in rage and hands on her hips, she took a step forward,
"Na-ru-to!" she screeched, the sound briefly reminded Naruto of a pack of howler monkey, as she stormed forward, pale hands raised in the air, "You stupid bastard!" she raged slamming her hand across the injured blond's face causing him to stumble backwards, his arms tightened around Sasuke, not wanting to drop his injured friend and hurt him anymore then he already was, "Look what you did to Sasuke-kun," At the name, the villagers turned and stared at the scene taking place before them and growled in anger at the sight of their beloved Uchiha in the arms if the demon, injured.
"That demon hurt the Uchiha heir we should make him pay!" A random female yelled.
Agreements were met and a mob formed, Sakura rushed forward and knocked the blond over, blood pouring like a light waterfall due to the hit, his arms shook with the effort to keep his hold on his unconscious teammate. A fist size stone sailed threw the air making contact with his forehead, causing him to lose whatever grip he had on Sasuke, but before he could hit the ground Sakura snatched him and turned furious eyes towards the blond,"You loser, Naruto, you almost caused Sasuke-kun more injuries." she bellowed.
Naruto grunted, gripping his chest, blood soaking his hands, " Shut the fuck up Sakura. If I dropped Sasuke, it would've been your fault, you stupid bitch!" blue eyes turned red, "What the fuck is your problem, you bubblegum bimbo. If your so worried about injuring Sasuke, why don't you watch what the fuck you're doing." With a scream of rage, Sakura kicked the blond, and taking that as an invite, the crest of the gathered villagers joined in the beating.
Shikamaru, who was on his way to the tower, happened to come across this particular scene and snarled, his lazy demeanor disappearing, he rushed forward, his shadow stretching outward, connecting it with ever single civilian member as well as Sakura's and halting their attack on one of his closest friends. "What the he'll do you think you're doing?" he sneered, eyes angry, "You better have a good explanation for this." kneeling beside the blond, Shikamaru placed a finger to the side of Naruto's neck, checking for a pulse.
A soft, yet weak flutter, tickled his fingers causing a light sigh to escape his lips, eyes soft as he gazed upon his friends beaten form, 'Naruto!' he turned furious eyes upon the group, "I wonder what Tsunade-sama will say to this."
"What's going on here?" a feminine voice cried our as a group rounded the corner, "Shika, what's going on?" Ino ran forward and gaped upon seeing so much blood covering her fellow blond, " Naruto!" racing forward, Ino dropped to her knees. Hinata gasped and buried her face into her hands, soft sobs escaped her lips while Kiba wrapped an arm over her shoulder, trying to offer her some comfort.
Glancing towards his female teammate, brown eyes softened at the sight of testy blue eyes. He was the only one who knew how much his female teammate cared for, perhaps even loved, Naruto, but she refused to say or do anything knowing Hinata has been in love with Naruto for years, so she stilled her hands from asking Naruto out, beside everyone was unsure about Naruto and Sasuke's relationship. Their bonds went beyond friendship and that was evident by how they behaved, but no one could say for sure whether it was platonic or romantic and they didn't want to ask either.
"Should I get Tsunade-sama, Shikamaru?" Shino's monotone voice cut through the silence that had descended. Getting the approval, the Aburame heir vanished from his spot in a swarm of insects, minutes later, several plots erupted, as the smoke cleared, it revealed their leader, and with her were Iruka, Kakashi and several ANBU members.
"What's going on? Shino told me I was needed in the center of town."
Shikamaru shifted revealing Naruto's beaten form eliciting a gasp from the three, and Iruka rushing forward kneeling on the side opposite of Ino, he picked up a limp hand, "Naruto..."
Steel settled within brown eyes and arms crossed, Tsunade was not only protective over Naruto, she was also dead serious now, which made for a very scary sight, "Explain to me why two of my top shinobi's are unconscious and one of them is seemingly lying dead on the ground." voice hard, eyes narrowed, she dared anyone to lie to her.
Silence met the question. No one wanted to admit doing anything to the boy who was, in everything except what matters most, a son, or grandson to the most frightening woman in the elemental nation. They shifted under the intense look, realizing too late that Shikamaru had released them from his possession.
"I can answer that question!"
Everyone turned to reveal a woman in her late twenties dressed in a white halter style shirt over a brunt orange fishnet, that ended just beneath her chest. She wore boy shorts in the same shade as her fishnet undershirt with a white and blue ankle length half skirt like sash that covered her left leg, leaving the right exposed. Coiled around her waist was something black though they couldn't tell what it was. On her feet were white ankle boots with orange laces. Tomato red hair was pulled back in a high ponytail, blue eyes narrowed, a frown tugging at the woman's lips.
"Who are you?"
"My name is Reiko." the woman turned and motioned for her companions to come forward, "These are my companions, this is Aihara and that is Ryouma." The redhead crossed her arms, "We've trailing behind those two for a while. Ryouma here told us he knew one of them and wanted to make sure he was alright. He promised we wouldn't interfere unless it was needed, it was hard for him, but he remained true to his words and we followed them here just to make sure they got here alright seeing as both were drained and injured." Blue eyes narrowed, "I have to say though, the treatment the blond received was quite appalling and quite frankly had the brunet not arrived and interfered when he had, Ryouma would have put an arrow through that troll's head, and I wouldn't have stopped him."
The group turned and took in the sight of the other two. The girl, Aihara, looked to be a few years older then the 'rookie team'. She had brown hair that resembled chocolate and her eyes were two different shades of brown, the right being darker then the left one. she wore an outfit similar to Reiko except where Reiko had orange, Aihara had green and beside that she had forgone the half skirt that the older woman wore. On her feet was a pair of white boots with green laces.
The boy, Ryouma, also looked to be a few years older with dark purple hair and eyes a few shades lighter with silver around the rims. He was dressed in a pair of black pants, a dark blue shirt and on his feet were black boots with blue laces.
Tsunade frowned, "What happened here?" Golden brown eyes stared at the travelers, "You said you've been following them, so you know what happened, so care to enlighten the rest of us."
Ryou huffed, a glare was directed at the group, he hadn't been lying when he said he knew one of the boys. Turning he directed his stare towards the blond, a soft look entering his eyes, "Can we talk somewhere else?" Ryou turned towards Tsunade, "I don't trust the company here." purple eyes glared at the civilians and the troll wannabe.
Narrowing her eyes, Tsunade contemplated the request before she gave a nod of her head but before they could leave Ryouma turned and whispered something to the brunette who smiled and skipped towards the younger teen and kneeling down she inspected the boys wounds and shooting a glare towards the boys attackers before placing a hand on the blonds chest, her body shook at the contact as memories, the boys one, entered her mind, nearly suffocating her in their intensity. Past and present collided within her and she couldn't tell what was real anymore. For what felt like eternity, which was really just a few seconds,
Aihara pulled her hand away a solemn look entering her eyes as she stared at the male before she glanced at Ryouma who met her eyes unflinchingly, eyes filling with understanding and he gave a small nod of his head. She had seen everything that has ever happened to Naruto. Unshed tears glistened within unmatched eyes, but she wouldn't allow them to fall.
Ryou sighed and glanced at Tsunade, "For the time being you might want to place those people in the ANBU holding cells, just until after you hear what we have to tell you, then you can decide what you're going to do with these trash."
Hearing that, yells and protest rang out from the villagers, which were silenced when the Hokage gave the order, and the ANBU's that were with them, grabbed everyone, sans the shinobi's, and using a simple transportation to leave while the fifth hokage took the remaining group to the tower.
Iruka picked Naruto up while Kakashi lifted Sasuke into his arms. Ryouma stared at Iruka for a bit wondering if the man could be trusted but a nod from Aihara had him relaxing as they followed behind the blonde.
Shikamaru and the traveler's, being the only ones to know what Sakura had done, wanted to stay as far away as possible from the witch less they do something they wouldn't regret.
They cringed at the sight of the spandex wearing male professing his undying love to the girl who, quite frankly, didn't deserve such heartfelt words of adoration.
Growling, Aihara rolled her eyes, 'What the hell does he see in that bitch? She isn't even pretty. She's flat-chested and not to mention, her personality leaves much to be desired.' Mismatched eyes rolled, 'I guess it's another thing the world may never know.'
Entering the office, they were met by Shino, Sai, Yamato, Asuma, Kurenai and Gai. Activating the silencing seal, Tsunade took a seat and mentioned for the group to start talking. "So what happened?"
Reiko crossed her arms. "That bitch!" she pointed towards Sakura. Eliciting gasp from everyone, except Shikamaru, the unconscious duo, Kakashi, Asuma, Shino, Neji and Sai, the latter smiled widely the name calling, "Began hitting Naruto the moment she discovered the raven in the blond's arms, injured and in dreamland. Her yells attracted the attention of several of the villagers and they all decided to join her in beating the poor boy." Aihara nodded her head, "Your lucky he," here she motioned towards Shikamaru, "was the one who got to her first."
Eyes turned to look at the Nara heir who gave a nod of his head, "That's the way I saw it Hokage-sama."
Tsunade scowled and narrowed her eyes at the pink haired female, "You continue to prove just how worthless you are. You are fifteen years old yet you insist in acting and behaving in a matter more suited for a five year old." the slug Sannin shook her head, "I've gave you chances after chances to prove yourself but you never do, this is the last straw." brown eyes narrowed, "I am having your chakra sealed off and you'll be permanent taken off the shinobi roster, we don't need people like you, a liability, within the ranks." with a snap of her finger, Owl appeared, "Take Haruno down to T&I and tell Inoichi I want her chakra sealed as well as another seal that will enable her to give away village secrets, though I doubt she knows anything, you can never be to careful." Owl saluted, grabbed Sakura, none to gently and questioned about the girl's parents, "Seal their's as well." Giving a nod of his head, Owl glanced towards the blond momentarily before vanishing.
Ino gritted her teeth, "I can't believe I ever felt sorry for her, that stupid bitch! How could she hurt Naruto so badly? What the he'll is her problem."
"Maybe your friend can answer that question."
Ryou turned at the sound of Reiko's voice before glancing in the direction she was looking, a smile wormed it's way upon his face at the sight that met his eyes, "Naruto's awake!"
