Well, here's chapter three. I kept rewritting these first few chapters, over and over again. I think I'm satisfied now.
"You said that awhile ago." Naruto promptly threw Itachi off. "You haven't done that yet." Naruto got up, and dodged Itachi's sword, backing up alittle.
"Rasengan!" That was the only warning Itachi got. Part of his cloak was burned off. He had been barely able to dodge.
'He's gotten better, I didn't even feel his chakra.' Jiraya frowned slightly. 'He really does look like the Yondaime.'
'He looks like Jiraiya, ecept with blonde hair and more muscles.' Tsunade blinked, 'Did I just think that?'
'He looks like Jiraya, the Yondaime, and even a little like Kakashi . . . I wonder how strong he really is?' Orochimaru glanced at Sasuke, 'I'll stick with Itachi's younger brother though, he's gotten stronger as well. I wonder who would win the fight now?'
CRACK!! Naruto froze, eyes widening. They all did. On the other side of the cavern a group of pools were close next to each other. The middle one had been frozen, but now it was cracking. Suddenly water surged upward aiming for Naruto, who dodged away from Itachi, the group, and unfortunately, the exit. He was trapped against the water. Itachi stood, watching the as the water solidified, turning into a human man, with webbed claws and white skin, his hair was long and blue, he had no shirt, and that showed the seal over his heart.
"Hachibi is still alive?" Kisame had been waiting against the wall, he sounded surprised. "I thought the Kyuubi container killed him."
'Kill?!' Sakura blinked at Naruto, who still looked tired. 'Is that why he's been so down?'
'The first kill is always the hardest . . .' Gai remembered being told that. 'For someone like Naruto who values life, taking it will always be hard.'
"This time, Kyuubi kit, I will kill you, you set me back, but I'll tear you apart, then your friends." His eyes were a blue tinged white, and they glowed.
"I'm not going to loose!" Naruto growled, 'Forgive me.' He glared at Hachibi. Then he opened up the passage to the Kyuubi. A trick he had made with the memory of Lee and Gai's gates and things old Zurui had taught him, and allowed his own chakra to go into the seal, making sure he was in control. He knew what he looked like as he heard the others gasp. The lines on his cheeks were broader, and his eyes were red. Kyuubi's chakra was like an adrenaline rush, one he sorely needed. "Let's go Hachibi." He moved first, dimly wondering if he should take off the jacket.
"Ice Spears!" the eightail had control over ice, someting fire didn't get along with.
"Hn!" Naruto dodged, feeling a smile slip. 'Crap, focus Naruto, don't you dare lose sight of your goal. Don't enjoy this . . .' The Kyuubi was, however, and his thrill at the fight was starting to creep into Naruto.
"Neji, activate your Byakugan, I want you to tell me how Naruto's doing on chakra."
"What is his color?"
" . . . " 'Crap, how exactly do you explain two different Chakra signatures in a person? Without telling them about the Kyuubi?'
"Blue, but for an as yet unknown reason, he has red chakra as well." Tsunde replied, though the gap by Kakashi hadn't gone unnoticed.
"How come Itachi, Kisame, and Hachibi, called Naruto Kyuubi?" Ino crossed her arms. She was going the direct way.
"Uh . . . "
"Kyuubi's sealed into Naruto, isn't he?" Neji's voice had gone flat.
"?" Kakashi looked at Nejji, who was focused on Naruto.
"I can see the seal, which dosen't just cover one spot on his stomach, it goes all over his body, and the chakra behind it is infinetly greater than what the eighttail has." Neji just kept staring. "The seal is covered in Naruto's blue chakra to keep it strong, while the red chakra fills up his body, It makes it look like the blue is a net holding back a firey explosion." What Neji neglected to mention was that he could see two eyes just beyond the seal, eyes that looked like a mix of the Byakugan and Sharigan.
"What is he doing?" Jiraiya muttered. "With that much of the Kyuubi's chakra, he'll start to turn into a demon . . ." Naruto was flung into the ground, right infront of them.
"It's only one tail. Worry about my choices later, get out of here while you lot can." It was a low growl. "Gamabunta's waiting to lead you home, I'll follow if I can."
"Naruto . . ."
"Well? Get out of here!" He took off his jacket, deciding to leave the gloves on, he tossed it to Jiraya, who almost coughed. He wore the same type of clothing the Yondaime wore as an Anbu underneath. "Get Sakura to wear it, it's the middle of winter out there, and the Kyuubi's chakra will fade." Then he and Hachibi were locked in mortal combat once again.
"You heard him, let's go."
". . . " Naruto's jacket was heavy and warm, it was like wearing a giant hug. Sakura suddenly felt safe, he wouldn't leave her. They left the cave, Itachi and Kisame followed them as part of the ceiling collapsed. The chakra energies of the two rose.
"Glad I'm not in there . . ." Kisame muttered to Itachi, who was in silent agreement.
"We'll take the survivor on."
"You're all alright!" The soud of barking suprised Kiba.
"Akamaru, Pakkun?" The two dogs were immediately checking their masters, and the others.
"So, you made it out, Jiraiya-san." Gamabunta blinked his large eyes at him. "Where's gaki-san?"
"He's still fighting, can't you feel that?"
"Yes, I can, but is he in control?"
"When we left he was, he said you were going to lead us home, and that he'd catch up."
"I can't leave the area, until I'm actually told by gaki-san to do so." Gamabunta blinked at the group. "I thought I told him that . . . "
"He wasn't listening at that point, He was focusing on getting this lot." An old White fox lay near by, he had three tails. "Hello, I'm Zurui." His eyes looked to be permanently closed.
"Two summons at once?"
"Hn? Actually, it's more like the foxes came because Kyuubi called them. Why on earth did kit-sama decide he'd go this alone?"
"Would you not call him that?" The two had been arguing over who had a better claim to be Naruto's true summon. Gamabunta claimed the right because Naruto summoned him first (and made the contract with the frogs first). Zurui claimed the right because of the Kyuubi in Naruto.
"Hello Jiraiya." A blue female frog hopped over, surprising them. "While these two start arguing again, I can explain some more, but first, did you like the clothes? I made them especially for Naruto."
"Rana, what on earth have you been teling the boy?"
"He's a man now, Jiraiya, has been ever since that former packmate of his rammed a powerful attack into his chest." Rana blinnked up at him. "And I haven't told him much."
"Hmph, that boy has more potential of being a fox than he does a frog." Zurui and Gamabunta glared at each other.
"What are you fighting about?"
"Who has the right to be summoned first."
"Umm, Elder, Naruto-sama said he'd summon the frog first in battle, but he'd use foxes as he gained tails, training also depends on the state of the Kyuubi-sama's chakra." A soft spoken golden vixen hopped between the two. "Right Rana-san?"
"Hai, that's what Naruto-san said."
"I know, but I don't like it." The two had spoken at the same time. The golden vixen went over to Jiraiya. The two more powerful demons looked at each other.
"Hello, I'm Trixie, a one tail fox." she held out her paw for him to shake.
"And the weakest trickster we have." Zurui commented, amused. "She's more of a dog instead of a fox, she feels bad after she tricks someone."
"Elder-san . . ." She was embarrased, curling her tail around her.
"Any way, before I forget." Rana glanced at the group, giving them a gloss overr about Naruto's current state would be all she would do. "After you lot were taken, the council got together and they were about to kill Naruto for your disapearance, and the demon attack. Two nin from Suna and two others intervened, reminding them that the Kazekage had disapeared as well, and that if it was the Hachibi that took you, the Kyuubi should have no problem getting you back. The only chance they'd get would be if Naruto was left alive. The council agreed, but they still wanted Naruto's blood, so they added a condition, Naruto had to at least find the Kazekage and Hokage in order not to be labeled a missing nin, and he had a year to-!" Tsunde picked up council, Naruto's blood, and one year. She felt a little dizzy.
Zurui growled Gamabunta blinked.
"He'd better come out of this alive."
"And he'd better hurry."
"?"
"We'll explain later."
Well, that's another done with. The reason the fight between Itachi and Naruto was cut short was I really can't write Itachi, He tends to be a little OOC, no matter what I do. That I know little to nothing of his attacks, hence the use of the sword. If any one can help out, I'd appreciate it.
