TROUBLESOME
PROLOGUE
The sky dyed red as the Sun started to sink low , the war ground was littered with dead bodies and blood everywhere . Some cried in pain for the loss of their loved ones ignoring their own not so great condition while others mourned for them trying to stay strong for the ones they were left with . The atmosphere was heavy as the remaining people gathered around their dying war hero who saved them with her strong determination sacrificing her life to break the cycle of hatred and restore peace among the five elemental nations.
Using the last of her strength to undo the infinite tsukuyomi she passed her burden of world peace to the love of her life. She looked at the faint trace of sun mark that once rested on her palm , what's left the power passed to her by the sage of six paths to defeat the rabbit goddess . There was very little of sage's power left with both of them.
The Raven's marble white skin was flushed red as his insides twisted in pain at the thought of losing his blonde haired rival and his first love that held his sanity. Looking at the tan skinned female who now was as pale as snow in his arms, her long blonde hair caked with blood and dirt he confessed his love for her , begging her not to leave him alone while she was trying to console him.
He pressed his lips to hers as warm tears slid down his pale cheeks . His face hovering above hers just like the time in the valley of the end , but this time there was no rain to cover for his silent tears as the landed on her face. No words were exchanged as the drowned in each other's silence.
She looked up into his eyes giving him a smile. She got her bastard back but with a price . She felt a sudden pang of guilt at the thought of leaving him alone. After all she was the only one he was left with. She stretched her hand out to wipe his tears and rested her palm on his face.
He looked at the her palm resting on his face and covered it with his , pressing his lips into it , which was surprisingly warm for a dying person, like her heart that is always forgiving, he noticed.
Flashback
"If you have to choose between my brother or the village , what would you choose?"he asked trapping her in his genjutsu, as he walked into her personal space . She slowly backed away trying to maintain distance while horribly failing to convey that she wasn't intimidated by him.
"I-I ... I don't understand.." she asked back.
" If my brother turns against the village whom will you pick my brother or the village?" he asked seriously not stopping till her back hit a tree.
She cursed herself for getting trapped between him and the tree and but could not avert her eyes from his. His face inched closer to hers his mangekyo spinning wildly as he gazed into her deep blue eyes searching for sincerity .
"Why would Sasuke turn against the village?"she asked back confusion slipping into her features.
"Just answer me," he prodded.
"I would save the village and Sasuke at the same time,"she told him with determination radiating off from every corner of her body even when only a few seconds ago he saw fear for him in her eyes.
"You're so naive Naruto," he smirked cupping her cheeks satisfied with her answer .
Naruto felt uncomfortable due to the proximity and even more ,not due to his actions but her noticing the warmth radiating off his body, how much warm his hands were for an ice Prince. Even Sasuke was not this warm as far as she remembered. She felt his hot breath on her face as his lips inched closer to hers closing the distance. She let out a gasp thinking how she let him this much closer blaming the resemblance he held to his brother.
Itachi took the opportunity to invade her moist crevice. Her eyes widened as she tried to get away from but his firm grip on her waist prevented her from getting away. For some reason she felt it was intoxicating but she burried the thought in the corner of her heart. She felt it was wrong on many levels . She felt she was betraying her feelings for Sasuke . She was brought out of the mental war with her emotions as she felt his lips leave hers.
She was brought out of the genjutsu as he took a step away from her. Her heart was racing ,faint blush colouring her cheeks. "What was that for !" She managed to shout breathing hard. He smirked at her reaction and poked her on the forehead with his fingers. Naruto glared at him rubbing the spot which was now red.
"Stupid little brother. He is sure lucky to have you care for him." He turned to leave. Naruto perked up, " Wait... you are after me aren't you,then why not take me now? "
"I am going now ." He said putting distance between them.
" what do you mean?" She asked him.
"I've given you some of my power hope the day never comes when you have to use it .
I have something more important to do ."
Flashback end
Rage filled his body, blood rushing through his veins. He was angry at the world that ripped off everything from him, angry at her for getting hit, for not being able to heal herself like all the previous times she did, for teaching him that she was not unbreakable, for making him realize that she was precious to him more than he thought she was, even though he told her that he would sever their bond himself , he just didn't consider how much it would hurt him and it hurt like hell.
He was angry at himself for embracing his clans curse of hatred, for taking too long to realize how much she loved him and how much he loved her, how devastated he would be if he were to loose her. He looked at the girl in his arms, her whisker marks less pronounced and her eyes less focused , he could say that she was struggling not to pass out.
"I'm sorry.. I'm sorry.. I'm sorry..." he whispered to her as he craddled her head close to his aching heart. His remaining teammates and the rest of rookie nine with the shinobi from all elemental nations and the kage could only look at the pair feeling sorry and mourn for the raven and his sun in silence.
ooo
The great nine tailed fox demon grimaced at the sight before him . For once he could find it in his heart to feel sorry for the Uchiha . After all the times he tried to kill her he snorted at the the irony of him begging her not to leave him . That sly black Zetsu, how he got hold of such deadly jutsu that fails all the internal organs to an extent that even he could not fix was something he could not fathom. The only way is to regrow the organs, but he cannot grow back human organs , she will become a half fox demon.
Getting up he stretched his body lazily and proceeded to use his powers to turn his kit into a hanyou the only way to save her but for that he needs to unleash his power which would not be a great idea without powerful seals that could contain it in his arsenal as it could wipe out an area as large as a country.
Such powerful seals are only in the kitsune shrine in the land beyond the elemental nations where demons are not uncommon but it is a point of no return for the blonde as the borders of the elemental nations are sealed to prevent attacks from the demons. Using the last of the sage's power he would teleport them to the shrine through space-time jutsu. It was the only way he could save her .
"Kit grab the Uchiha's hand."
"Kurama . why?"
"You ask too much kit. I am going to save you . Now don't ask any more questions ."
"...Ok ."
Naruto slipped her hand into Sasuke's hand startling him and smiled at him with great effort . His heart clenched at his inability to do anything to save her . He felt a sudden drain in his chakra, his rinnesharingan activated without his consent as she started to glow , cold flames licking her body ,fragments of what used to be disappearing from the vision as they were sucked into a different dimension, of all those staring at her wide eyed as the faint whisper of her parting words were hung in the air carried by the calm winds .
"We'll meet again Sasuke... I promise dattebayo ."
" Sorry kit I can save you but I don't think you will be able to meet the Uchiha any time soon."
"What are you saying ku.. ra...ma..?"her words slurred as she drifted into oblivion.
Sasuke looked at the space between his hands where the jinchuriki formerly rested. It took some time for him to register what happened in his shock.
"Naruto..." He whispered into the air as realization of what she had done dawned upon him. Hope blossomed in his heart.
ooo
Land beyond elemental nations- Kitsune shrine - a little distance away from Inuyasha Forest.
The seals of a few hundred years old kitsune shrine the resting place for the messenger of Inari-sama , lit up alerting the kitsune spirits in charge of it . A black portal opened inside, as a blue eyed blonde made appearance, the shy spirits gathered around her to proceed with the ritual of turning her into a hanyou. Her body started burning in flames as her old parts burned and got replaced by the new ones, her skin and organs began to disintegrate at molecular level and cells began to rebuild.
Kurama's power radiate off her and the spirits diverted it into the nature . The plants and trees began to regrow as shockwaves of the foxes power was felt through a large distance even in elemental nations.
The nature began to absorb the rich chakra, the animals feeling it's warmth. The raw power of the great demon fox was not unfelt by the demons , unsettling them . Few small demons cowered and went into hiding. The head Miko Kaede who was meditating felt the powers that were being absorbed by the nature and sent her men out to search for any thing out of place.
The spirits returned into their place after a few days when the transformation was over and took care of her till she woke up.
ooo
A few days after...
Land beyond elemental nations- Inuyasha Forest.
Climbing up the well Kagome looked around to realize that she was in an unfamiliar place.
"I could be wrong but I think I'm not in Tokyo anymore," she told herself but could not help but call out to to her family.
"Grandpa! Mom! Are you there...Souta!... It's like the family shrine i-huh..the tree... That means I'm practically home."
Kagome recognized the tree near her family's shrine and began running towards it. She stopped when she saw a boy bound to it by an arrow.
"Is that a.. boy?" She slowly neared him warily.
"Hey there!"she called out to him but received no response. She began to touch his ears out of curiosity for a while before she looked around to figure out what she should do next. She heard the bushes moving. She moved just in time to dodge the arrows thrown at her.
"Hey . Get away from there," the man shouted at her . She tried to escape but was caught tied and taken to their village.
