The second chapter! I personally don't really like it that much, but I didn't have any better ideas.
Disclaimer: I tried to sneka into Kishimoto's house to change the new part of the story for Naruto, but his dog bit my butt... Soz I got caught
Warnings: Same as previous chapter
Two weeks later
Sasuke looked down at the blond laying in the middle of the room on a futon. It had been fourteen days since he had been struck by Kakashi's Chidori and hadn't shown any sign of waking up anytime soon. Downstairs something crashed and a loud shout was heard. Followed by the angry voice of Tsunami.
Inari ran upstairs and hid behind Sasuke as his mother stomped upstairs after him. Huffing Sasuke pushed the boy towards his mother who carried him back downstairs.
The raven turned to look at Naruto again. It was amazing how Naruto's wound was already fully healed. When Haku had announced it to Kakashi, the older man didn't seem fazed and only shrugged it off. But now even he was getting worried about the unconscious blond.
"Sasuke-kun."
Turning around Sasuke watched as Haku walked up the stairs with a tray. On the tray was a bowl of warm water, a cloth and several food pills.
"How did Naruto-kun sleep last night?" The brunet asked.
"Same as every other night…"
Sasuke and Haku walked into the room and both sat down on either side of Naruto. Late in the night when the moon always shone its fullest Naruto's body went through a series of spasms, and surprisingly, it was only Sasuke's touch that could calm him down. The Uchiha would place the boys head on his lap and softly stroke the blond hair until the spasms ended.
"It's a good thing his body reacts when we place food pills in his mouth."
-CRACK-
The food pill Haku placed in Naruto's mouth was crushed by his teeth and Haku handed Sasuke a wet cloth and they both started to clean him.
"I do hope he does wake up soon." Haku sighed.
"We all do. This is Naruto though, he will wake up soon."
"I truly hope so Sasuke-kun. Even Kakashi-san has become grim on Naruto waking up anytime soon. I heard from Zabuza that he was preparing to take drastic measures."
"How so?" Sasuke asked as he raised an eyebrow.
"Something about trying to find a legendary medic nin."
"Maybe he should.."
Like he knew they were talking about him Kakashi called them down. The two boys abandoned their duty and walked down the stairs to see the others sitting around the table.
Sasuke sat down next to Kakashi while Haku placed himself next to Zabuza. It was silent for a while until Kakashi cleared his throat.
"We have to do something about Naruto, as Haku has stated he is too weak to be moved and there are no experienced medic nin here."
"Of course we have taken in account to go to Kirigakure to find one, but have ruled that out because of… Certain circumstances."
"Sasuke, Sakura." Kakashi looked at his students. "I'm sure you two have heard of the legendary medic nin Tsunade?"
Sakura grinned and nodded while Sasuke only grunted in response.
"Of course! She is one of the legendary Sannin!" Sakura said.
"Exactly, if there is a medic nin would could be able to help wake Naruto up, it's her. The only problem is that it could take time to find her."
"Why don't you just make several Kage Bunshins and send them out to look for her? It'll be easier that way."
Kakashi blinked.
"You're right Haku.." The jounin stood up and created at least ten shadow clones who ran out of the house seconds later.
Sasuke nodded and went back upstairs, Haku right behind him.
"I hope they find her soon…" Sakura said as she fingered her hair, a action she had begun to do ever since the battle on the bridge.
"Unhand me you filthy Kakashi clone! I have more gambling to do!"
The voice echoed through the early night and everyone in the household shot up from whatever they were doing and ran to the front door. Two of the Kage Bunshins were holding two women as they approached the house, a raven and a very pissed off blonde.
The bunshins let the women go as soon as Kakashi stepped out to them, they bowed before disappearing into smoke.
"Hatake Kakashi! What do you think you're doing?!" The blonde woman demanded.
"We are in need of your services Tsunade-sama."
He hardly had time to blink before her fist connected with his gut and sent him flying into the side of the house. Tsunami and Sakura immediately ran over to his side while Sasuke glared at the woman.
Taking a deep breath he stepped forward and stomped on her foot.
"Look! My friend is in that house in a coma and I'm not going to let you waste any precious time! I need to know what happened to him and I need to know now!"
Tsunade stared at the boy as she kneeled down to look at her foot, the other woman next to her was mumbling in herself. Sasuke never stopped looking at the blonde woman. He opened his mouth to yell at her again but stopped when loud whimpers and crashing sounds came from inside the house.
Turning on his heel Sasuke dashed back inside. Tsunade's eyes widened when she saw the Uchiha fan on the back of Sasuke's shirt and she shook her head. Since when was an Uchiha so caring for another human being other than their own clan? She turned to Kakashi, who was standing up again and she stared at him. He led her into the house and up the stairs. The sounds that had come from inside it had disappeared and again Tsunade's eyes widened when she saw the youngest Uchiha.
Sasuke was sitting on his knees, cradling Naruto's head on his lap as he softly stroked the golden blond hair. He was humming a lullaby as he looked down at the boy. Once he sensed he wasn't alone anymore his humming stopped, although his stroking didn't and he glared at the medic nin.
"'Bout time you showed up." He said and Tsunade glared at him.
"Don't get your Uchiha panties in a twist… What happened with him Kakashi?"
"Well um… We were fighting and I was about to ram a Raikiri in our enemies chest when Naruto jumped in front of him… So I kind of, burned right through his chest."
"IMBICILE!" Tsunade's fist connected with the top of his head.
"I can't believe it, the legendary copy-nin Hatake Kakashi rammed a Chidori right through the chest of his student. What has the world come to?"
"Could you take a look at him Tsunade-sama?" Haku said behind her and she nodded.
When she sat down to the unconscious boy she took a moment or two to look at his features. With a gasp she looked up at Kakashi and glared daggers at him.
"Is this who I think it is?"
"Yes Tsunade-sama."
"You are so going to die when I'm done with him Hatake! You would think they'd place him in the hands of a capable jounin."
"I was the best choice. Would you rather have Asuma or maybe Gai have him?"
"No you're right…"
Sasuke listened to their conversation with interest. So this woman already knew who Naruto was? He couldn't remember ever seeing her in person in Konoha, but he reminded himself that she had been travelling for many years. He didn't move from his place when Tsunade pushed Naruto's shirt up to look at his stomach.
To his surprise when saw that Naruto had seal on his stomach, only this seal was glowing.
"He's being healed, slowly but well. Looks like his 'tenant' is taking good care of him. Of course it knows that if Naruto dies, it will die as well."
"What do you mean tenant?" Sakura asked as she pushed her way into the room.
"I guess that is a story for another time…"
Tsunade stopped talking as the seal glowed deep red and Naruto's body moved. In shock Sasuke slid the other boys head off of his lap. Naruto's fingers twitched and his eyes slowly opened. Everyone gasped when instead of azure eyes, they were looking into crimson eyes with slit's like a cats.
Naruto groaned and sat back up as he rubbed the back of his head with one hand. Tsunade grabbed Sasuke's arm and pulled him up as she stepped back. Kakashi took a fighting stance as Naruto stood back up. A deep chuckled echoed from him and he held his hand above his head and looked at it.
With Sharingan eyes, Sasuke looked at Naruto. There was something wrong about him. The whiskers scars on his cheeks were darker and he had claws and fangs. Naruto stepped forward and Sasuke hissed when Tsunade stepped on his foot with her high-heels.
"There's no need to be scared human." Naruto said with a low voice.
"Well I am standing in front of the Kyuubi no Yōko, so I have a reason to be a little twitchy." Tsunade said as another low chuckle erupted from Naruto.
"If I was planning to hurt you I'd have done that already. Of course I haven't been free like this in twelve years… No, I just came to talk to you about something important."
Tsunade stepped forward again and stopped right in front of Naruto.
"Then spit it out demon."
"Ouch, your harsh words hurt me so! What have I done to you?" Kyuubi asked in a teasing tone.
"Well for one you tried to destroy our village and two, you killed the Yondaime."
"Pff, that was his own choice. But down to business…" Crimson eyes turned to look at Sasuke behind the medic nin and Kyuubi smirked.
"It doesn't look like the young ones know who they are talking to."
Sasuke and Sakura both shook their heads and looked questionably at Kakashi.
"Then I shall introduce myself. I am Kyuubi no Yōko. Or the Nine-tailed Fox if you find that easier to remember. Twelve years ago I attacked the village of Konohagakure and when the Fourth Hokage stopped me, he sealed me into a newborn baby. Your little Naruto."
"You mean… Naruto has a demon inside of him?" Sakura asked with a trembling voice.
"Yes it does, does that bother you?" Kyuubi smirked when Sakura fervently shook her head.
"Anyways. Thanks to scarecrow there." He thrust a thumb in Kakashi's direction. "The kit and I were forced to merge years before it was supposed to happen. Naruto's strength, and mine if I might add, is still regenerating. Don't worry, he'll be waking up in a few hours though. So now we're going through a merging process and that's the reason why the seal has been glowing. It won't be needed anymore so it is starting to disappear. Do you mortals understand?"
All ten heads nodded and Kyuubi smirked again. He looked at his surroundings and breathed in deeply.
"It feels good to be out again." Then Naruto's body slumped back down to the floor and Tsunade rushed to catch him.
Seeing that all sign of conscious life left him Tsunade placed him back on his futon and slowly stood back up. With a sigh she turned back towards the door and looked at Shizune.
"I need sake and I need it now…"
