Hey peoples, here's the new chapter. This is gonna be the last one until someone gets the privilege of being my beta. For those of you who don't know what that is, it is basically someone who reads my documents then edits them into something better or gives me some tips to improve the story for you people, so really it's all for you. Also, 'Little Toy Soldiers' by Eminem does not belong to me. Ja na (Good Bye).


So the shocked and current Rookie 11 followed Naruto out the door and saw something more than just Naruto walking down the street. They saw just how he walked. His shoulders were slightly hunched, his hands were in his pockets, both of which show great depression, and yet, his head was held up high.

Soon, Neji realized something else. 'Look at the villagers and how they look at him.' They did. The villagers had faces twisted with hate and fury. And it looked Naruto noticed too, because he only seemed to increase his pace and hunched his shoulders even higher and dug his hands down further. After a while, he broke into a run that the others had trouble keeping up with. Soon, he broke into the forest line and the rookies lost him.

After a couple of minutes, they could hear somebody crying. They followed the sound and watched as Naruto created several Kage Bunshins (Shadow clones) and had some of them henge into instruments and began to play, with tears streaming down his face.

-Real Naruto-

Step by step, heart to heart, left right left
We all fall down...

-Kage Bunshins-
Step by step, heart to heart, left right left
We all fall down like toy soldiers
Bit by bit, torn apart, we never win but the battle wages on for toy soldiers

-Real Naruto-
I'm supposed to be the soldier who never blows his composure
Even though I hold the weight of the whole world on my shoulders

I am never supposed to show it, my clones ain't supposed to know it
Even if it means goin' toe to toe with a senbo' you it don't matter

I'd never drag them in battles that I can handle unless I absolutely have to
I'm supposed to set an example

I need to be the leader, my clones looks for me to guide 'em
If some shit ever just pop off, I'm supposed to be beside 'em

That Ja shit I tried to squash it, it was too late to stop it
There's a certain line you just don't cross and he crossed it

I heard him say Sasuke's name on a song and I just lost it
It was crazy, this shit went way beyond some Orochi and Akat' shit

And even though the battle was won, I feel like we lost it
I spent too much energy on it, honestly I'm exhausted

And I'm so caught in it I almost feel I'm the one who caused it
This ain't what I'm a ninja for, it's not why I got in it

That was never my object for someone to get killed
Why would I wanna destroy something I help build

It wasn't my intentions, my intentions were good
I went through my whole career without ever mentionin'

Now it's just out of respect for not runnin' my mouth
And talkin' about something that I knew nothing about

Plus Kyuu told me stay out, this just wasn't my beef
So I did, I just fell back, watched and gritted my teeth

While he's all over town Down talkin' a man who literally saved my life
Like fuck it I understand this is busine

And this shit just isn't none of my business
But still knowin' this shit could pop off at any minute cuz

-Kage Bunshins-
Step by step, heart to heart, left right left

-Real Naruto-
There used to be a time when you could just say a rhyme
And wouldn't have to worry about one of your people dyin'

But now it's elevated cuz once you put someone's kids in it
The shit gets escalated, it ain't just words no more is it?

It's a different ball game, callin' names and you ain't just rappin'
We actually tried to stop the Akat' and Orochi beef from happenin'

Me and Kyuu had sat with him, kicked it and had a chat with him
And asked him not to start it he wasn't gonna go after him

Until Pein started yappin' in magazines how we stabbed him
Fuck it Akat' smash 'em, mash 'em and let him have it

Meanwhile my attention is pullin' in another direction
Some receptionist at The Source who answers phones at his desk

Has an erection for me and thinks that I'll be his resurrection
Tries to blow the dust off his sword and make a new intention

But now he's fucked the game up cuz one of the ways I came up
Was through that publication the same one that made me famou

Now the owner of it has got a grudge against me for nothin'
Well fuck it, that motherfucker can get it too, fuck him then

But I'm so busy being pissed off I don't stop to think
That we just inherited Orochi's beef with Murder Inc.

And he's inherited mine which is fine ain't like either of us mind
We still have soldiers that's on the front line

That's willing to die for us as soon as we give the orders
Never to extort us, strictly to show they support u

We'll maybe shout 'em out in a fight or up in a speech
To show them we love 'em back and let 'em know how important it i

To have Runyon Avenue soldiers up in our corners
Their loyalty to us is worth more than any award i

But I ain't tryna have none of my people hurt and murdered
It ain't worth it, I can't think of a perfecter way to word it

Then to just say that I love ya'll too much to see the virdict
I'll walk away from it all before I let it go any further

But don't get it twisted, it's not a plea that I'm coppin'
I'm just willin' to be the bigger man

If ya'll can quit poppin' off at your jaws well then i can
Cause frankly I'm sick of talkin'
I'm not gonna let someone elses coffin rest on my conscience cause...

The Rookies didn't know what was more suprising. The fact that Naruto had an incredibly hard life (incredible understatement), Naruto had written a song, or the fact that it was really good and complimented his incredible voice.

"Well this has got to be one of the best days of my life. I haven't been beaten up today and I don't have pay the rent again this week," Naruto sighed happily.

The Rookies just couldn't believe it. Just when his life might actually might not be any crappier, it some how does just that. 'Okay guys,' Kiba asked, 'Who feels like a complete jackass.' Everybody chorused 'I do.' 'Okay, good. I'm not the only one. Who's totally gonna make it up to them.' Again, same answer. 'Okay, good. I'm not the only one.'

Just then they realised that it was day One. It's going to be a long week.


Thank you everybody for reviewing so far. And a shoutout to Uncle Joe, for you are my favorite author. Any way, Naruto is not insane, his life has just kept up with him so that he talks to himself a little. Uncle Joe, the reason I chose this song is because Naruto thinks he keeps letting his people down and just took it from there.
