Guest: Thank you for liking it. :D

TheBookLoveress: Yay for baby turtles! I just asked because I felt like asking because they are both so cute!

Scarlett: I see your point of view and I like your opinion and I am taking it in and using it to change the story a bit more. I'm getting the family in and on track to find Naruto as fast as I can but not too fast that it was rushed. I hope you like this chapter, I'm also going to slow down the relationship of Naruto and Sasuke a bit too. So enjoy.

Sorry I haven't updated all week, school this week has been super busy and I just haven't had any time. I won't have as much time this weekend but I'll write any second I get so stay tuned for Sunday or maybe Monday. Love your reviews and if you have any ideas on how Jiraiya will find Naruto please review. Anyway, please enjoy.

The phobia of being touched by people


"Gaara can't you walk any faster?" Naruto dropped his shoulders upset at his best friend.

"No." Gaara replied emotionless looking over his shoulder for the hundredth time from when they left the school.

"I want to play your new game at your house though." Naruto whined.

"Then wait."

"I can't!"

Gaara looked back again. "Gaara what are you looking at?!" Naruto shouted annoyed that his friend was not paying any attention to him of what he was saying.

"I feel like that car has been following us since we left school." Gaara told Naruto. "That black van, I don't know why they are following us but I don't like it one bit."

Naruto stopped and turned around to look at the van squinting since he could not see inside the van.

"Naruto you idiot! They know we know that they are following us, run!" Gaara pulled Naruto and ran down the street shoes hitting the cement hard.

The car speed up and two guys wearing black hopped and chased down the two kids that ran as fast as they could.

"Gaara!" Naruto yelled as he looked behind him.

"Don't look behind you. Keep running." Gaara yelled never letting go of his friends hand.

Heavy footsteps were gaining on them as they ran through an ally as a short cut. The two young boys shimmied through the tight space and as they neared the end they were met with the back van. Gaara dropped his school bag and started climbing up.

"Naruto follow me."

Naruto nodded and they climbed up grabbing pipes and ledges until they made it to the roof. Gaara pulled out a knife and pulled it across his hand dripping crimson blood down the brick alley wall they had just climbed up. He then wrote with his blood the licence plate of the van.

"Gaara what are you doing?" Naruto asked as tears came down his face.

"Leaving a sign, it's summer and not yet monsoon season so it shouldn't rain." Gaara looked at his friend and saw his confused look. "So they know who took us and if those people down below find us and take us the police will have a lead."

"Wow, you are smart Gaara."

Gaara smirked and grabbed his friend's hand again and they took off over the flat topped roofs, jumping and leaping for their lives. They were crossing a larger gap, Gaara jumped across first making it safely, Naruto got ready to jump when his foot slipped on the ledge and he fell down the side landing in a heap of garbage. Gaara looked down at his blonde friend lying still on the ground and climbed down after him, seeing that Naruto had just winded himself, that was until he looked at his ankle. It was bent in a weird way and already starting to bruise.

"Naruto, I know that it probably hurts but we need to move before they find us." Gaara said as he pulled his friend's arm over his shoulder and started walking.

Behind the boys came a sadistic laugh. "Looks like we found you."

Two more sets of footsteps came behind them as a soft cloth came over their mouths coaxing them into darkness.


Naruto shivered at the memory he got when we looked at his ankle, he wasn't sure why he got the memory when he did but it came without warning. He remembered Gaara, his friend that was with him when he was taken. Although he couldn't remember a last name or where they were at the time of the incident. Naruto shivered again, if he found Gaara then it would lead to more hurt and more pain. It was best to just forget him.

The blonde got up from the bed on shaky legs and walked over to the bathroom. He looked in the mirror and fliched in disgust. Why was he so ugly? Naruto looked away from his reflection and made his way back to the bed. It was dark outside, stars were out and the lights from the city shone brightly. He stared out of the window for what seemed like hours, nurses and doctors would come in and try to get him to sleep but he wouldn't. The paranoia of someone coming to get him while he was asleep was too much, and he wasn't going to risk Mizaki coming to get him a second time.

A nurse walked in slowly and sighed seeing that Naruto was again not asleep. "You have to sleep sometime, if you want I can get some nurses and we can help you-"

"No!" Naruto clutched his head. 'They all want to hurt me. They all want to hurt me.'

"Naruto please, you have to sleep. It's been days."

"I can't, he'll come, he'll get me." Naruto crouched in the corner trying to keep away from the nurse who were posing a threat. Blood started to seep through the bandages on his back, the nurses called a code white. They tried to coax Naruto but he just couldn't cooperate.

"Please, we don't want to use force." The nurse had her hands up showing peace.

"No, stay away." Naruto's voice quivered in fear of being touched by so many people.

"Get me 20 ml of heavy sedative."

A few minutes later a doctor came back with a syringe. Naruto cringed back into the wall but was pulled forward by a couple of nurses.

"Please stop." Naruto shed tears from his cerulean eyes that caressed his face.

"Don't worry, you are just going to sleep." The doctor plunged the syringe into the forearm of the young blonde, forcing him into a troubled sleep.

When Naruto woke, he was meet with the sight of the raven haired boy from a few days ago. He flinched back falling off the side of the bed onto his butt. Sasuke rushed to his side trying to help the younger boy up. He reached his hands down to pick him up, but Naruto flinched back away from him in fear.

"Sorry." Sasuke mumbled backing away slowly.

Naruto got on his weak legs and lifted himself back onto the stiff bed. He watched Sasuke carefully still not fully aware after waking up from his forced sleep. He sat up and Sasuke watched as his eyes glazed over. He waved his hand in front of Naruto's whiskered face, but he didn't react in the slightest.

A nurse came in and told Sasuke that he was probably just remembering something so he shouldn't worry too much, but in the meantime she redid the bandages around his waist and hands. She wrote on the clipboard in her arms and turned to Sasuke and smiled.

"He's gotten a lot better in the week that he's been here, but he still has a bad case of haptephobia1, now we will have to arrange a living arrangement. I know that the psychiatrist Orochimaru is willing to take him in and help him, but he's away a lot of the time... Oh never mind. It will all work out in the end."

"Um, I see you in here all the time but I never got your name." Sasuke scratched the back of his head.

"Shizune. My name is Shizune." The black haired woman smiled at she pointed to the nametag on her pig covered scrubbs. "I'll be off, I have more patients that I have to attend to. See you. Sasuke."


Kyuubi looked at the door to the room that was once his brothers, he stayed up late until he knew that his parents were sleeping then walked quietly into the room making sure not to make a sound. He stepped inside and turned on the light, the walls were light blue with orange swirls everywhere, a few picture frames with a smiling blonde boy and a much younger Kyuubi. There were other pictures of another redheaded boy and Naruto, and one other that was covered in dust.

He picked up the wooden frame and wiped his hand to get rid of the dust coating. He gasped at the sight. His older brother at the age of six, as it was written at the bottom was holding a newly born Kyuubi. His bright blue eyes were smiling almost as much as his mouth was.

Kyuubi felt the tears coming up, he had never felt his heart so empty before and it hurt so badly. He took the photo out of it's case and snuck back into his room. He looked at the photo more carefully and smiled, he desperately wanted to find his brother and tell him how much he wanted to meet him and how much he loved him. Even though he didn't remember him at all, which was sad in it's own terms.

Kyuubi then pulled out the laptop from out under his bed and researched his brothers name for any information or any events of kidnappings. He looked all night until he found a few similarities, there was two who fit his brothers description in America, three in Europe, and one in Japan. There was no picture for the one in Japan but there was a description that fit the picture he had perfectly. He wrote them all down and brought them to his parents who were now up from a night of sleeping.

"Mother, father look at these please." Kyuubi handed all the information that he had gathered from the night to his parents.

"You found all this?" Minato looked at his son.

"I think that we should at least try to find him right?" Kyuubi grabbed his father's hand.

Minato nodded at his wife. "It's worth giving it a try. I'll find an investigator to help us, I know jiraiya would help. I'll go contact him now."

Kyuubi smiled, he would finally be a step closer to his brother.

Minato went to the phone and called up his long time friend Jiraiya.

"Hello?"

"Jiraiya, I need a favour. I big one." Minato said into the receiving side of the phone.

"Of course, what is it that you need Minato?"

"I need you to look over some leads we have on Naruto."

"Your son?" Jiraiya asked. "Your found leads?"

"Yes, I will text you the leads if you agree to help out-"

"Of course i'll help out. I want to see that kid just as bad as you do. Send me the leads now and I'll get on it straight away."

Minato hung up and smiled at his wife and son. "He's going to help us find Naruto."

Kyuubi smiled.

"Kyuubi." Kushina got down on her knees. "I just want you to know that your brother might not be the same, and I don't want you to think that if we do find him that we will love him more than we love you."

"Don't worry, I won't feel bad. I just want him to be with us forever."

Kyuubi pulled out the photo he took from his brothers room and stared hard at it engraving it into his mind so he would never forget the smiling face of his brother.
