Don't own Naruto
Invincible
Chapter 1
SPLAT!!! Or is it SPLORT?
"Everyone, get down!"
As soon as those words left Kakashi's mouth, Sakura found herself on the ground five feet from where she had been yelling at her teammate. Meanwhile, Naruto found no time to save himself as the large whirling blade came flying from the trees. Crossing his arms in front of him and praying to whoever may be listening, Naruto waited for the inevitable impact of the blade.
Naruto was so absorbed in his silent begging of the gods he barely noticed as the blade passed through him and the collective gasp of his teammates, sensei, and client as he didn't fall to the ground in pieces. Opening his eyes to see why he wasn't dead yet, Naruto was stunned to see a faint metallic line on his crossed arms, right where the blade would have cut through. He watched in fascination as the line thinned and disappeared, leaving not a trace of ever existing.
Turning to Sasuke, Naruto asked the question they all had, "Did that really happen?"
Before anyone could answer, a figure appeared on the blade and said, "I don't care what you can do, the old man is mine!"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After the fight, (it happened the same way as it did in the anime or manga, whichever you follow, it's the same either way) and getting to Tazuna's home, Sakura asked one question as they put their sensei down to rest. "Naruto, what was that back there?"
Sasuke's full attention was now on Naruto. If it was a jutsu, he wanted it, but if it was some kind of new Kekei Genkai, he would look elsewhere. After all, he had goals to achieve.
"I don't know, it may be a Kekei Genkai, or it may be a 'gift' from my 'curse'. As soon as I figure it out, I'll tell you."
With those words, Naruto started to leave, only to be stopped by a question from Sasuke, "What curse?"
Without turning around, or even looking over his shoulder, Naruto answered in a dark tone, "Kyuubi," and walked out of the room, leaving behind a stunned silence.
After a few seconds, Sakura recovered. "Sasuke-kun, what do you think he meant by that?"
"That's what I want to know. But if it's what I think it is, it would explain... almost everything about him," was the cryptic answer.
To be continued...
I know, ANOTHER new fic, but the idea just wouldn't leave me alone. Please forgive me, but at least I'm working on the others. Don't know when they'll be updated, but I'm working on them.
