Chapter 2
Twinkle: Hey people! After the long wait, I present to you the next chapter of TAA. Enjoy!
Beta'd: By my bestest friend in the world, KrazeeNingaChick.
It was the last fight in the Chunin Exams between Sasuke Uchiha of the Konohagakure and Subaku no Gaara of Sunagakure. Gaara let loose a maniacal laugh. "Mother wants your blood." He called before enclosing himself in a dome of sand.
Sasuke then proceeded to put his plan into action by running up the wall. At the top, he flew through some hand signs before focusing chakra to his hand. The chirping of a thousand birds could be heard through out the crowd.
Everyone sprung into action the second Sasuke launched his attack into Gaara's sand. The shinobi of Sand and Sound placed a genjutsu on the crowd, enticing the civilians to sleep. The shinobi of Leaf dispelled it as the genin chased after the sand siblings who took off during the commotion.
(Timeskip – 30 Minutes Later)
Naruto's P.O.V.
It was bad. Sakura's pinned against a tree while Sasuke stood back as I fought the mutated Gaara.
Sakura was no help what-so-ever! All she did was scream and get in the way and now look what happened. The bitch got stuck to a tree. I know what you're all thinking, 'Don't you like her?' and 'If you want to date her you got to be nicer.'
Well I've tried and I've given up. It happened back in Wave Country, when I and Sasuke were trapped in that ice dome with Haku.
(Flashback – Wave Country)
We were tired and we looked like human pincushions. While I was catching my breath, Haku threw more senbon, aiming at my neck for a quick kill. I attempted to dodge them but it was futile. Sasuke had thrown himself in front of me, the senbon impacting themselves in his neck instead.
He started to fall and I caught him. "Why?" I managed to coke out.
"I-I don't know. My body m-moved on its own." He said before passing out. In my blind fury, I didn't realize this and thought he was dead.
(Timeskip – Wave Country)
"Sasuke!" Sakura wailed. Zabuza and Haku were dead and Sasuke had yet to wake. I walked over to Sakura in attempt to calm her.
"Sakura, it's okay." I said, realizing the senbon did not kill him. "He's not-"
"Shut up!" she yelled as I backed away. "It's your entire fault! If it weren't for you, he'd be alive!" I glared at her.
"If it weren't for me, he'd be dead. He is alive. The senbon couldn't hit with pinpoint accuracy because he was moving." I stated calmly. She stood up, her anger evident in her eyes.
"Oh boy."
'You can say that again.'
"Does he look alive to you?" she barked, tears streaming down her face. "Now I won't be able to live my life happily with Sasuke-kun because of you, you good for nothing-"
"ME? So now it's all about me?" I clenched my fists in anger. "What the hell did you do other than quiver in fear while Kakashi, Sasuke, and I fought tooth and nail against the enemy! And newsflash, Sasuke JUMPED in front of me!" I yelled.
Sakura's eyes widened before she glared. "Sasuke-kun is too great to waste his life on scum like you. I think you pushed him in front of the senbon." I threw my hands up and my eyes changed colors from a cerulean blue to a murderous bloody red.
"I GIVE UP!" She gave me a questioning look. Before she could say anything, I continued. "I protect you, I pay attention to you and all I get in return is you bad mouthing me about how much better Sasuke is than me!"
Without realizing it, my eyes changed to a stormy ice blue with rings around it. Sakura's eyes widened yet again as she backed away in horror.
"N-Naruto?" she whispered in fear before she pointed to me. "Y-your eyes."
"I don't care! I'll check that later! Let's just get some things straight pinky! Stop hitting me and stop yelling at me! I've had it with you and you're wailing!" I yelled before calming down and looking over into the river at my reflection. My eyes widened in surprise. "Whoa."
(Flashback End)
I had to attack his somehow. I bit my thumb and the boss toad, Gamabunta. "What can I do for you, Naruto?" he asked. I pointed to Gaara who, at this point, transformered into Shukaku, the one tailed Tanuki.
"I'm free!" the crazed bijou yelled. I looked at the boss toad.
"Is that enough for you?" I said as he sighed.
"I guess."
(Timeskip – 15 Minutes Later)
We've been trying everything but nothing is working.
"Naruto, you going to have to wake the host up. But we need to get a good grip. Something with fang and claws." Gamabunta pondered. We were both deep in thought until I heard a voice in my head.
"Use a transformation of me." Kyuubi said. I face palmed myself.
'Of course. Why didn't I think of that before?' I thought.n After running through some handsigns, I called out my jutsu. "TRANFORMATION!" I yelled and in a puff of smoke, Bunta submerged , transformed into the Kyuubi no Yoko. We jumped, latched onto Ichibi, and tried to wake up the red head that was covered in sand from the waist on down. "Gaara!" I yelled, jumping off of the transformed Gamabunta and landing on the head of Shukaku. Sand rapped around my arms, legs, and torso so I had to resorted to the only thing I could do. I head-butted Gaara, hurting both him and myself in the process.
Shukaku began to crumble as Gaara woke. My chakra was extremely low and I was tired. Gamabunta poofed back into himself before he vanished out of exsitence and Gaara and I plummeted through the trees to the ground below.
(The Next Day – The Council's Office)
Sakura, Sasuke, and I were all in the civilain's council office, giving our report of what happened with Gaara. Once Sasuke finished, it was my turn. The council people looked at me with hatred and distaste. Before I could speak, the Haruno family head put her hand up. "I think we heard enough stories. It is evident that Shukaku of Subaku no Gaara was unleashed and you defeated it, Uzumaki." she said to me. I nodded. "It is also clear that you summoned the Kyuubi as well."
My eyes widened in anger but I kept calm. "I did no such thing."
"Then how come we saw the beast in the same clearing you were in?" the Aburame civilian clan head asked, thrying to igure out what happened without doing something brash.
"I had summoned the boss toad, Gamabunta, and I transformed him into the Kyuubi to get a grip on the Ichibi no Shukaku." I answered.
There was an uncomfortable silence as the civilain heads looked at each other. "Uzumaki Naruto, you are hereby exiled from Konoha due to an attempt to destroy the village." My eyes widened evern more. "Please return you hatai-ite."
I did as I was told and removed my hatai-ite from my forehead and put it on the table. I, with mearing advanced, heard Sasuke clench and the pater of his blood hitting the ground. Not wanting to see his face, I turned around walked to the door. "Uzumaki, you have three hours to leave this village. If you are not gone you will be killed. Is that clear.?" the Haruno said. I wasn't listening as I broke out into a vicious smirk that no-one could see.
'Well, if they're going to banish me, they should at least know my secret.' I thought.
"I said, is that clear, Uzumaki?" the pink banshee's mother said again. I laughed.
"As if." I replied. They all tensed as I turned around and gasped when they saw my eyes. They were red with black rings around the pupil.
"The Rinnegan." whispered one of them. "We can't let a bloodline like that go."
"I say we marry him with multiple girls so we can have more of it."
"Too late though." I said breaking up their little debate. "I'm already exiled. So long." I said before walking out the door.
(The Forest Outside Of Konoha)
Third Person. P.O.V.
"Itachi, do you know when we are going to head back to base?" Kisame whined as he dragged his sword on the ground.
"Shut up Kisame. We're heading that way now." Itachi said irritated. Kisame sighed.
"But can't we go any faster?" he whined again.
"No." All of a sudden they heard yelling.
"Why? What have I done to the sand village?" they heard a deep voice yell.
"Simple. You ruined our plan to destroy the Leaf." they another voice say. "You are now exiled from the Sand."
"Fine. I never even like your village." the deep voice spoke.
(Konoha)
"Well, its time to go." Naruto said walking towards the gates with his stuff in a bag on his back. He was almost there when a group of shinobi, 3 Jonin, 8 Chunin, and 7 ANBU, blocked his path. "Can I help you?" he said calmly.
"Today, you die demon." one of the chunin said. Naruto smirked.
"I was exiled. Not sentenced to be executed. I still have an hour to leave." he commented. The ANBU stepped forward, drawing his katana in the process.
"We're here to finish the job." he said. Naruto jumped over them and started running.
The chase was on.
Somewhere along the way, Naruto caught up with Gaara. "Gaara! Run with me!" he shouted. Gaara looked behind them and saw the ninja in pursuit and started to dash through the trees.
"Hey, what's going on?" Gaara yelled.
"I got exiled but these douche bags are trying to kill me." Naruto stated.
Twinkle: So what do you think? Good or bad? The chapter is short. Ja Ne!
