Return Of the Uzumaki

Disclaimer, I don't own Naruto

Unknown area

Beaten

That's all that went through Naruto's mind

'I looked straight At him.' Naruto thought, 'He was the closest thing I had to a brother, and he's gone. kill them. I did My best. no, You could have put more power in Your attack. But that would have killed him.' the nine tails alluring words wouldn't get to him "he's my Friend!" Little did he notice that he was in the hospital. "It's about time you woke up" someone said with a lazy tone. Naruto looked up to see the lazy chunin playing shogi.

It took him a second to wrap his head around everything to notice His lazy, but close, friend sitting right next to him. "Sh-Shikamaru?" Naruto tried to get up only to be stopped by a pulsing pain in his chest. "you shouldn't move to much," Shikamaru stated, "any rash movements and the wound will open.

It was then he noticed his chest was wrapped in bandages. 'was this from Sasuke's Chidori?' "what happened?" Naruto asked trying to understand what's happening, partially hoping the Sasuke incident was a dream. "how long have I been under?" shikamaru looked at him but not with the regular lazy look he usually has, but with pity. It was the look you gave when you wish you could have done something to change whatever happened.

"It's been three weeks." Shikamaru finally answered. Naruto's eyes widened in shock, 'Three weeks!? how much has happened since then?' shikamaru then continued, " Yeah It took you longer to recover than the rest of us. The mission failed, Sasuke has been officially marked as a missing nin, but That's not even the worst of it."

Naruto looked at Shikamaru with a worried look "What could make It worse?" Naruto then saw Shikamaru's face looking completely depressed and disappointed in himself. "Naruto," shikamaru said, but couldn't look into naruto's eyes "I'm Sorry for not being there when we were at the Academy, I would have done something If I'd known, I should Have been there for you." Naruto's eyes widened in fear 'does he know?'

"the council," shikamaru continued "has considered you too dangerous to keep around and has agreed to banish you from Konoha" Naruto froze and his body went stiff processing this new Information. He then looked at shikamaru look down in despair and saw that he didn't want this either, 'he truly does care about me,' Naruto thought 'I wonder if the others feel the same.'

"Thank you for telling me this Shikamaru,"Naruto said making shikamaru look up at him "It must have been hard for you to come and say this and I'm glad it came from a friend other than a hollow bastard I don't even know. I only wish I had another chance. How long do I have until I have to leave?"

Shikamaru, feeling a little less upset answered him. "They said the morning after you wake up from the coma." Naruto, slightly upset about the little time he has, started to get up despite his injury and shakily got out of his bed and slowly walked forward. " could you get me a crutch or something," naruto asked the Nara, "I'm still a little shaky, but I can still walk. I want To see the village one more time before I leave, And say My last goodbyes to My Friends." The Nara nodded and helped Naruto out of the room .

Thank you For the second chance Everybody. I'm sorry about The confusion with my first story I downloaded the wrong document and got confused I hope with this, I can redeem myself.

P.S. We probably won't see any thing about the Uzumaki clan until chapter five.
