Disclaimer: I can't believe I was enough of a spazz to have forgotten this in the first chapter. Silly me, just bash me over the head if I forget again.

I own nothing of Twilight or Naruto, any higher being help us if that was the case. They belong to their owners respectively and I haven't got them memorized. That would be something for the world of google or, possibly, Wikipedia. I can't tell who's lying on that site these days.


Blackhaven18: Wow, thanks for the review guys. I'll admit, I was kind of nervous about posting this seeing as how this is the first time someone's read my work, but I'm really glad to hear that you like it so far.

Winter Alais: Thanks so much for being my first reviewer and I just wanted to let you know about a few things concerning Bella.

When I first uploaded this chapter I had about six or seven chapters written already and in all honesty Bella was a bitch in all of them. However your comment got me thinking, could I depict Bella as a nice, possibly slightly clingy, girl and not as a bitch as I've seen a lot of people do already?

So now I'm rewriting chapters to make the storyline a little less predictable, but hey, I'm always up for a challenge. With the way things are going though I might be able to update every three or four days, if things end up falling into place. Anyway, thanks so much for the comment. They really mean a lot to me.

Britachisbride: I'm really glad you've enjoyed what I've written so far and in all honesty I'm having trouble depicting Naruto as being 'broken,' but still a little cheeky and charming to at least seem normal on the outside, you know? If you have any ideas I'd love to hear them. Thanks for your review.

moonbay (I can't type the whole name for some reason.): I was actually surprised there was so little 'serious' stories on this pairing-I sincerely hope I wasn't the only one- I would have thought that slash writer's would have been all over this one, though I guess the Harry Potter and Twilight kingdom would be more believable than an anime and a fiction book that is somewhat based on reality; more so than Naruto anyway.

As for how they knew each other… I'm afraid to say with the way I arranged all the 'main' events I have planned that it is probably not going to fully come to light until the second part. There will be 'dreams' between the two of them though, but nothing that reveals a whole lot. Sorry.

Utena-Puchiko-nyu: Thanks for the comment and for introducing a new word into my vocabulary. I had to google 'Crackpairing' to find out what it meant, LOL. Anyway, I'm glad you're enjoying it so far, the idea had actually been roaming around in my mind for months and I finally had the time to type it out. And seriously? Argentina? It's so exciting to find out my story is reaching out that far.

As for updates, I wrote to Winter Alais a few paragraphs up that I more than likely would be updating every three to four days, mainly because of personal hurdles like college and such, but this fic will not be abandoned! I just thought I should make that clear.

Alright, enough with the insanely long sappiness, let's get on with the story!


Name: Sea of Flames: Trilogy, Part 1.

Summary: Naruto was banished from Konoha for over two years and while he was gone something huge happened. Naruto hasn't been the same since. Now though, he's had enough of being used as a tool and leaves Konoha to start what he hopes is a new life, where people won't judge him for the demon inside.

Make sure you get there first.
The apple of your eye.
The rotten core inside.
We are the prisoners.
Things couldn't get much worse.
I've had it up to here, you know your end is near.

You had to have it all,
Well have you had enough?
You greedy little bastard,
You will get what you deserve.
When all is said and done,
I will be the one to leave you in the misery and hate what you've become.

Intoxicated eyes, the love and myth, that life.
You should have learned by now, I'll burn this whole world down.
I need some peace of mind, no fear of what's behind.
You think you've won this fight, you've only lost your mind.

You had to have it all,
Well have you had enough?
You greedy little bastard,
You will get what you deserve.
When all is said and done,
I will be the one to leave you in the misery and hate what you've become.

Hold me down.

You had to have it all,
Well have you had enough?

I will be the one to leave you in the misery and hate what you've become.

Heaven help you.

'Had enough'

By: Breaking Benjamin


Chapter 1: Had enough

"Get the fuck out of our village you damn demon!" One of the villagers yelled and threw a glass sake bottle at the blond walking to the training grounds, "Just fucking die already!"

He gasped when the bottle didn't even come close to reaching the blond, but shattered a good five feet away into nothing more than dust-like particles that blew away in the wind.

He was then subjugated to the most heated glare of blood red eyes he ever had the pleasure of seeing, one that would make someone think the world was going to end by this man's hands' alone, but one could expect that kind of look from a monster he supposed.

Instead of attacking though the blond turned his potent gaze away and kept walking to the training grounds, leaving the man to crumple into a heap in the middle of the road, claiming he saw Death himself.


What… what could they possibly want from him? What could he possibly have left to give?

The people of the village- his village- people he killed for in order to protect leered and glared at him as he walked down the street. Spitting oddly colored globs on the ground near his feet and sneering in disgust from the mere sight of him…

To the villagers surprise he stilled completely, ignoring their blatant treatment, his gaze still facing forward towards the Hokage's monument.

These people would never accept him; he had figured that out years ago as they beat him into submission and what was worse… he had allowed them to.

To them, he was the monster that took their loved ones, nearly destroyed their village and murdered their beloved Yondaime Hokage. That's all he would ever be to them...

At one point they had him so warped that he had believed they were in the right, that he deserved to lay there as they carved in words of hate into his skin, which would heal within the next hour. That an eight year old child deserved to have his skull bashed in by the blunt objects the villagers had grabbed with their filthy, grubby hands on the way over…

They wanted his protection, he gave it to them, and when they wanted his body and mind, he pledged both to them without a fight. Even when they wanted his child-like innocence (1), hell they got that too. He had nothing anymore… They owned him mind, body and soul...


"No more."

A large man clad in a greasy white t-shirt stepped from the crowd towards the demon; he leaned forward so that he was now eye level and a few centimeters from Naruto's face. Stale, alcohol riddled breath permeated the air that would have made anyone else gag from the putrid smell.

Naruto's blue eyes were shielded behind the bangs of his blond hair,

"What'd you say boy?" The man questioned and laughed when the blond didn't answer. He pushed a chubby hand into Naruto's shoulder tauntingly, with enough force to make him take a slight step back. "Fucking little monster."

What the people heard next was the unmistakable sound of wood splintering and breaking under a huge mass of weight over thirty feet away; what they saw was a huge cloud of dust as it rose from the newly fashioned doorway of one of the nearby stores.

Naruto's body was shaking as he stood there, his right arm extended perpendicularly from the rest of his body up until the crook of his elbow where it jutted straight out to his fisted hand. It didn't take a genius to figure out he just pummeled a civilian with only his forearm…

"It's Kyuubi and he killed a man! Quick kill it…" One of the villager women screamed in a high pitch voice that was grating on his ears. She was cut off when a red slitted gaze looked in her direction, effectively silencing her…

"All of you… Just shut the fuck up."He hissed as the pathetically slow Anbu finally made their way to the scene. He could have killed over a hundred people with the time they took to get here…

"Naruto… just take it easy." The one wearing a cat mask said, raising her hands up to show she wasn't going to harm him.

"No, I'm through, I've had enough. This village had done nothing but shit on me, ruling out the clans and a few others. Don't even try to tell me otherwise, you know I'm right."He growled out and other's backed away in fear.

"Can't you see that thing for what he is? Just put him down already!" One of the villager women begged and pulled on the Anbu's sleeve repetitively.

"This is the man that has saved your worthless hide countless of times! I am not going to 'put him down!'"

"But he attacked a civilian, surely that means you have to lock him up behind bars?"

Cat grew still at the information, if it was true she might have no choice. She glanced back at Naruto. "Is what she claims true?"

"As far as I know verbal abuse is still abuse and I don't take well to being called a 'fucking monster.'" He glared at the villagers, knowing there was no one who was going to back him up on his allegations, "Or being called 'little.'" He added in with a smirk.

'Danzo here I come.' He thought as Cat took out her chakra restraining cuffs, and discreetly felt Kyuubi's influence being locked away again, his enhanced sight changing back to normal.

"I'm sorry Naruto, but with the information provided you're guilty. I have no choice but to bring you in." She told him and moved forward to shackle the blond's wrists.

"Did you really expect any less?"

As he was being led away a sigh from above them caught their attention and Cat looked up to see who had emitted it in confusion. "How troublesome, Naruto you can never seem to keep out of trouble for long, can you?"

Clad in his Jounin jacket, a cigarette dangling from between his lips, Shikamaru leapt down from his position on the roof to land next to the blond.

Naruto couldn't help but chuckle weakly in response, "I thought you would have figured that out by now genius." He remarked as Shikamaru started to undo the restraints in Naruto's wrists.

"Don't! You'll release it!" One of the villagers cried out and the brunet glared at them, which was saying a lot coming from Shikamaru.

"Don't even try it. I saw the whole thing from up there," Here he jerked his thumb towards the area he was previously standing on, "and if I was in Naruto's shoes, that man wouldn't have a broken arm, he would be dead. Be thankful he at least has some compassion left."

The villagers winced as they knew there was no way they could talk back to the heir of such a prestigious clan. The demon had managed to gain friends in very high places…

Once the crowd had dispersed Cat faced Shikamaru, "Thank you, I really didn't want to go through with that." She said and bowed before disappearing in a cloud of smoke.

"Troublesome. Naruto we should…"

He stalled as he realized he no longer had the blonds' attention. Naruto's gaze had once again fallen to that of the Hokage monument with an almost wistful expression of comprehension. It was the only expression, besides anger and seriousness, he had seen on the blond in the past couple of years… and it was certainly not one that suited the person he knew. The person that had affected his life and many other's so greatly.

Then again this village had a way of changing people, he snorted.

"I'm… never going to get there am I…?" Naruto questioned almost sadly.

Shikamaru knew there was nothing good he could say about the situation, so he settled for patting the blond hard on his shoulder. "Just know we'll support whatever your decision may be. You'll always have friends within the clans and we'll tell all of our descendants and anyone we run across the real story. Not that concoction the villagers put together to slander you."

Naruto brought a hand up and rested it against the one on his shoulder, "Thanks Shika, I don't think I could have lasted this long without you guys." The blond instantly slid his blank mask back on and Shikamaru couldn't help the stab of remorse that course through him at the sight.

"Of course Naruto, now I think you were on your way to the training grounds before, weren't you?"

"… He's going to kill me," was Naruto's only reply as he started on his way again.

Shikamaru couldn't help the laugh that bubbled its way past his throat; even now Naruto had the strangest affect on him, on all of his friends and he had changed them for the better.

As he turned away a strange feeling racked his body as the blond walked off; it was as if his friend had been saying 'good-bye' the entire time they spoke. Was it time already? So soon?

Feeling his stomach drop at the thought, he quickly turned back, "You better take care of yourself Naruto! Don't make me come after you to save your ass!" He called and those who were passing looked at the outburst with confusion.

Since when had a Nara shown so much emotion about something?

Shikamaru felt his chest tighten when Naruto raised a hand in a slight wave, but didn't look back.

'Good luck, Naruto.'

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

(1) I don't mean this in a sexual way, hence the 'child' I inserted into the sentence. What I mean is this innocence he had when he was twelve, that 'if I try hard enough I will prove to them I am not a monster, the people here will come to accept me' attitude, or the 'I will protect them with everything I am because they are the villagers of my home.' We've all been there right? Wanting to see the innocence in everything and everyone and not believe someone could be capable of something so horrid, like someone murdering his/her entire family. Well, on that lovely note…

Blackhaven18: *Fan's self* this chapter just crushed me as I was writing it out.

I've never had so much trouble trying to figure out which character to use in a scene, without making them seem so… OOC? Well, as you can see I chose Shika, mainly because he we was the winner by default.

I honestly couldn't see someone like Kiba or Shino doing this. For one, Kiba reminds me too much of the anime Naruto, loud and boisterous. I just can't see him taking a matter like this seriously without making it into a joke as he seems prone to do as a reflex. No offense to Kiba-lovers, that's just my own personal opinion.

As for Shino, he can be insightful, but I needed someone who would actually talk, you know? And Shino is more of a listener to me, with the short as a fortune cookie answers. Again, this is my own opinion. As for a reason to why I didn't choose any of the girls? That was because I wanted a guy to guy moment that was truly heartfelt.

Well, I hope I didn't make Shikamaru too OOC, and if I did then I'm sorry *Bows here.* Please R&R, I could really use some ideas for confrontations between Naruto and the Cullen's. You know, how they meet, because the whole meeting at school thing is so overdone and I don't want them to find about Naruto's abilities just yet. Maybe they'll see him in the forest, but he'll more than likely be in his ninja get up, with his hair and face hidden as a 'mystery man.'

I've already decided that Alice will not 'See him' bright as day in a vision, because that too is overdone. She will at some point, but the two visions she does have will have no correlation, so they don't make the connection. Other than that thanks for reading the story and this ridiculously long commentary, if that is you were able to make it this far without exiting out of the page.

Ja ne, minna!
