YO! CM here with another story!
I know my other isn't finished but I saw this challenge and I couldn't resist. It would be easier on me if I had the book on me for this series but sadly I only have the third and fourth on my person and I sure as hell am not starting the book in that area!
I plan to make this as good as I can, but please keep in mind I'm writing this using my memory to remember the events. If it turns out to seem poor or for lack of a better term, shitty, then please by all means correct me and tell me what I missed and I will fix it up. I write for the pleasure of my readers and sometimes myself.
Yeah that's right I read my own stories big whoop wanna fight about it?
And Hopefully without further ado
BEGIN!
"Hey! Ero-sennin! Are we lost again? You better not have got us lost just to satisfy your crappy book!(1)" yelled a young boy to his older companion.
Said older man turned and looked at the boy beside him with anger written all over his face. "How dare you insult the greatness that is Icha Icha! Those women in the hotspring were of vital importance to my next book! ...And we are not lost!" he yelled back
The younger boy glared at him, "Please. I've read better books that Iruka-sensei gave us as textbooks!"
"You probably didn't even read them dumbass!"
"I didn't need that crap anyways! I'm awesome enough as it is without those boring books!"
"No wonder you such a dumbass!"
"Frog faced old man!"
"Blonde-haired brat!"
"Old geezer!"
"Sunflower!"
"Pervert!"
The old man halted walking before turning to the boy in exasperation. "I told you a thousand times already. I'm not a pervert... I'm a SUPER-PERVERT!" he yelled with pride.
The younger man hung his head in exasperation at the older mans antics. He was about 5"10 and had blonde almost yellow hair that spiked out in random directions, defying gravity in its wake. His face was masculine with a stronger jaw and a lack of baby fat. His most defining facial feature was the three whisker marks that adorned each cheek. He wore a tracksuit that was orange with black around the bottom and on the sleeves as well as across the shoulder and down the zipper. On the back of it was a spiral emblem in red. He wore orange pants with a shuriken and kunai pouch around his thigh. He looked to be about 16 or 17. His name was Uzumaki Naruto, Genin of Konohagakure no Sato and container of the Kyuubi no Kitsune.
The older man was far stranger to look at. Towering above most at an impressive 6"1, he had waist-length, spiky white hair tied back into a pony tail, with two shoulder-length bangs that framed both sides of his face. He also had red lines that ran down from his eyes and wore a horned forehead protector with the kanji for Oil (油). He also had a noticeable wart on the right side of his nose. He wore a green short shirt kimono and matching pants; under which he wore mesh armor that showed out of the sleeves and legs of his outfit. His outfit was completed with hand guards, a simple black belt, traditional Japanese geta, a red haori with two simple yellow circles on each side, and a scroll on his back. This man was Jiraiya of the legendary Sannin, and one of the strongest ninja alive and the Master of Naruto.
"You always tell me and I always give you the same answer, a pervert is a damn pervert, you pervert!" Naruto said marching slightly ahead of his teacher, ignoring the slight cry of "super pervert!" from behind him.
The two had been walking for 6 days now and were getting low on food. While this wouldn't be a problem as the two ninja could hunt, they were too close to the sea to do much more then fish, and that had gotten a bit bland after having it nonstop. They were praying for a town to come up.
After another hour of walking the two had their heads down ad looked mournful. They hadn't eaten in a while and they were getting desperate.
"Oi, Naruto." Jiraiya said, head still drooping, "How much food do we have left?"
"None." Naruto replied sullenly. "We ate the rest two days ago when we thought we saw a town a while back." He said, bemoaning the loss of good food.
Jiraiya's head drooped even further at his students words.
GRRRRRRRRR!
Both males heads shot up, as they looked at one another, before speaking at the same time. "That was your stomach." Both blinked at one another before their heads drooped comically low.
'Fooooooood...' was the general though between the two.
~~~~/~~~~
The day was slowly turning to an end with the sun slowly sinking into the horizon as the two ninja made camp for the night. They still had no luck finding either food or a town and even Naruto, with his legendary luck, was unable to catch a fish for them to eat.
As the two lay by the fire trying to sleep, Jiraiya reached out with his senses, looking for chakra signatures of everything around him. It was something he picked up in the Third Great Shinobi war, when going to sleep could mean death to the average person. But Jiraiya was no average person.
Suddenly he picked up a number of chakra signatures heading towards them at high speeds. Leaping to his feet and dousing the fire he woke Naruto up.
"What is it Ero-Sen-" Naruto began before seeing the intense look on his masters face. He immediately gained a serious look on his face and asked the problem.
"Get ready quickly. I sensed a large amount of chakra signatures varying between low to high jonin. We are going to make a break for it and hope we outrun them." The Sannin said before gathering their items up and sealing them away quickly before slipping them into his pockets.
The two ninja took to the trees bolting as fast as they could away from the approaching threat. However after a few minutes in seemed hunger had gotten to them and they were forced to slow down to a snails pace. They quickly found themselves near the ocean. Finding no other option they turned to face the attackers.
"Naruto, no matter what happens stay out of this as much as you can." Jiraiya said. Naruto looked appalled by the idea and was quick to retort.
"No way Ero-Sennin! I can fight! I'm not a little weak kid anymore!" He yelled at the elder toad sage.
"You have gotten strong, yes, but you are still not much of a match for the high jonin in the group. Pick off the lower jonin in the group if you can but do not engage, do you understand me?" Jiraiya compromised.
Naruto looked visibly unhappy with the decision but nodded nonetheless.
"Here they come."
From the trees 9 ninja dropped to the ground. From the slashes on their headbands they were all missing ninja. 4 were from Suna, 2 from Kumo and the last 3 were from Konoha. They eyed the two ninja in front of them before the Konoha nin's eyes widened dramatically at the sight of the legendary Sannin. Then they turned greedy at the thoughts of the bounty on his head.
Jiraiya broke the silence with a voiced that commanded nothing but respect for the man. "Who are you and why have you come for us? Do you have a death wish, fighting a Sannin and his student? That is not wise." He growled out. Naruto looked sidelong at the man, surprised at the mere presence the man commanded.
The missing nin merely laughed before one of them answered. "We are no one of your concern. But if you must know, we are here for easy money. We all figured two tired and hungry looking men would be a lot easier to fight then you both at full strength." The man yelled.
Jiraiya's eyes narrowed at the mans words. That meant they had been watching them for some time now. He cursed mentally, thinking how lax he had gotten in the passing years of peace times. Now it was coming back to bite him in the ass.
Without warning one of the nin's began flashing through hand signs, while 3 more stayed back and the rest rushed the tired duo. Jiraiya quickly rushed at the first nin, landing a powerful punch that knocked the wind out of the man, before spinning a roundhouse kick knocking the man away.
"Fire style: Fire dragon bullet!" the nin in the back cried.
Jiraiya's eyes widened at the attack before he flashed through a few seals and yelled, "Earth style: Mud wall jutsu!"
A tall wall appeared in front of the man, shielding him from the deadly flames. The other nin charged the man, quickly engaging him in a taijutsu fight.
Blocking a kick to the head, Jiraiya grabbed the offending leg and hauled the man in close. Lifting his geta bound foot, he slamed it into the man, feeling ribs crunch at the kick and heard the cry of agony. Using the mans body as a spring board, he brought his hands down in a powerfull double hammerfist that was blocked by the jonin in front. Two of the men rushed past the locked two and aimed at fighting Naruto, seeing him as a weak link.
Jiraiya ignored the men that rushed past, knowing his student was no slouch when it came to fighting and focused on the two infront of him.
With Naruto
Naruto was in a bit of a pickle. While he knew he was good at fighting, he wasn't sure about fighting two jonin level opponents. But he never gave up so this was just another challenge for him.
He rushed forward, ducking under the arms of the first mans swing and launched a right handed blow towards the second man. The punch was blocked as a kick from behind flew to his head. Ducking under the dangerous foot, he spun sweeping the man off his feet before kicking him and using the force to headbutt the second man in the stomach. The unorthodox attack caught the man off guard, but he quickly recovered by grabbing the back of Naruto's head and slamming it into the ground.
Pain exploded in narutos face as he then felt a strong kick in his ribs. He used the force to flip into a standing position and faced the now two wary opponents.
"Well then? Come on!" Naruto yelled, making his famous cross hand sign. A large number of clone surrounded the two.
Standing back to back the two drew kunai in each hand before launching into the mess of clones.
Back with the four sand ninja that stayed back, they had all just finished the handsigns of their most powerful jutus'.
"Wind style: Drilling bullet!"
"Wind style: March of the wind god!"
"Wind style: Tempest!"
"Wind style: Great breakthrough!"
The four powerful wind attacks plowed towards the gathered ninja's. Jiraiya replaced himself with a log after dispatching his opponents. He sighed in relief at the near fatal hit when a thought struck his mind.
"Naruto!" he roared towards the Nine tails container. But it was futile as the raging winds plowed towards the younger man and his opponents.
It struck with earth shattering force, cracking the earth when the four attacks connected with the men. The two missing ninjas Naruto was fighting died instantly from the sheer pressure and power in the attacks. Naruto on the other hand was blown away with bone breaking force, sending him miles and miles away, far out of Jiraiya's sight.
Jiraiya turned to the four missing ninja's that had fired the techniques, but saw that they had fled. Turning back to the ocean he scanned the waters desperately in search of his student.
Failing to see hide of hair of the young blonde. Dropping to his knees and punching the ground Jiraiya cursed ferociously out loud, tears running down his face.
"I failed..."

Narutos mind
Naruto was floating in a sewer that he knew all too well. He tried his hardest to never go to this place but it seems life has no sense of humor. Standing straight he turned and walked towards where he knew the Kyuubi was held.
As he walked he noticed the pipes on the wall were glowing deep red, as if super heated. He pondered it for a moment then shrugged. It was probably just the fox healing him. As he walked down the hallways he noticed that there was a bright light at the end of the hallways. Slightly unnerved he quickened his pace, hurrying towards the monster that ruined his life.
"What the hell are you up to now fox?" he muttered under his breath.
Reaching the room that the bright light was Naruto entered. It was a large room, enormous actually, towering far beyond sight in height, while being quite wide. In front of him were giant bars, much like a cage for an animal, with a piece of paper on in with the symbol for 'seal'.
However, there were some differences to how it was normally.
Right now, the water beneath Naruto's feet glowed a dull red, along with the walls. Red chakra seeped out of the bars like some kind of ooze, seeping into the water and the walls. Inside the cage was a sight, however, that would make all but the sternest of men cring and whimper in fear.
The Kyuubi no Yoko.
And he looked pissed. More then usual anyways.
"OI! FOX! What the blue hell is going on?" Naruto yelled to the beast of chakra.
The Nine tails head seemed to creak down as it glared at Naruto with more hatred then all of humanity could ever muster in all of its existence. Its claws lashed out to the bars with such force that it shook the entire mindscape and made Naruto fall on his backside.
"FOOL! YOU CAN NOT GO INTO A FIGHT WITHOUT GAINING LIFETHREATENING WOUNDS? PATHETIC HUMAN! DO YOU KNOW HOW CLOSE TO DEATH YOU ARE? HOW MUCH CHAKRA IT IS TAKING TO KEEP YOU PATHETIC BODY WORKING?" The chakra monster roared in a furious rage. "THE VERY THOUGHT THAT I HAVE TO SAVE A HUMAN OF ALL THINGS IS INSULTING! AND THE FACT OF YOUR PITIFUL POWER IS EVEN MORE INSULTING! THAT DAMN SAND RAT IS STRONGER THEN YOU ARE!"
"HEY! I'M PLENTY STRONG! And its not my fault I'm in these situations all the time. As for the healing, you don't got a damn choice bastard! If I die you die, that's the rule! So I guess you'll have to put up with this pathetic 'human' after all." Naruto said, smirking at the enraged fox.
Shockingly the Kyuubi calmed down, and even chuckled, albeit darkly.
"No." It said grinning evilly, "I won't have to put up with it. If your damned weak human body can not handle having enough power, then I will simply change that body!"
Naruto was confused, "What do you mean change it! What are you doing to my body?" he screamed.
"I am creating a vessel that knows no creature above it! Nothing that can call itself it's better! I have stood by with this weak human body as a shell, and I will not do it any longer!" it yelled, chakra forcing its way through the bars. Narutos chakra tried to bat it back in the cage, but being so close to death Naruto's chakra was at an all time low. Kyuubi's chakra flooded the mindscape, burning through the walls at an unmatched pace. Naruto screamed as his body was torn apart and rebuilt hundreds of times, pain exploding from every micro-inch of his body's remains. Kyuubi's laughter boomed loudly in the background.
"HAHAHAHA! SOON I WILL NEVER HAVE TO DEAL WITH YOUR PATHETIC HUMAN LIMITS! NARUTO!" it boomed loudly, laughter thundering through the mindscape.
And then, as sudden as it all started, something happened.
Kyuubi's laughter was quickly cut off as bright silver light flared throughout the room, casting shadows on everything. Naruto didn't stop screaming, but his body seemed to be rebuilding in sickening cracks and breaks as bones lengthened and muscles grew to massive sizes. The silver light converged on the boy, shining more brightly than ever. Kyuubi was fascinated by these new proceedings and watched closely, unable to see past the bright silver light.
"What is this? I've never seen it before..." the demon thought out loud.
Suddenly a bright beam flew from the light and pierced the Kyuubi's chest, causing the massive beast of anger and rage to gasp in pain and astonishment. Then it noticed something. Its chakra was being sucked in by the light, making it grow brighter and brighter then ever. Kyuubi began to panic, never having seen something like this before. Then I noticed something new. Its chakra was being stolen, it was being converted.
You see, in essence, bijuu like Kyuubi and the other nine are essentially beings of pure chakra that gained a consciousness. This made them almost impossible to kill as they could rebuild there bodies simply by changing their chakra to fit what they wanted. This made them almost immortal and almost invincible. Almost. There was a way to kill a bijuu however. Being chakra monsters they were basically energy. So if you changed that energy, then the consciousness of the monster would have nowhere to go and would cease to exist, leaving only the new energy behind. Whatever this bright light was, it was quickly changing the chakra of the kyuubi into this new energy. Most of the energy was lost in the transfer in the process but even the portion that wasn't was massively large.
Kyuubi felt an emotion that it thought it had ceased to feel. Fear. Fear of death. Fear for its own life. And most of all, fear of this power that was killing it.
It thrashed against the cage, trying its hardest to free itself from the light that was killing it, but to no avail. Its roared it fury and fear at this strange energy that was able to slay it.
And as quickly as it was there it was gone. The kyuubi no kitsune, bane of humanity, and a walking natural disaster, had been killed.
A bright flash exploded throughout the mindscape and a loud roar could be heard before all went black.

'where...where am I?'
...
...
'who am I?'
A large body slowly rose from the sandy beaches it lay on. It's large body pulled itself into the woods, not far from itself. Walking a short distance it saw a cave and slowly dragged itself inside.
Dropping heavily to the ground, it slumped as if almost dead.
Memories flashed through its mind, like tiny blips of light. Words slowly manifesting. One word was louder then all the others.
'Naruto...' it thought, soft red eyes flashing open.
ANNNNND CUT!
For now. I hate leaving cliffy's cause I myself find them annoying and tedious, but this one was just too easy to do. I couldn't resist.

I'm not the greatest author but I get by and I hope for positive comments and helpful tips. I'm young and I'm inexperienced. I'm hoping that this fic doesnt crash and burn.
To all that will comment!
I am only human! I want to know what you all think! Please tell me what I did wrong! Or what I could do better! Or anything! I want to improve for all of you!
That is all.
