With You Forever 4

"Eh? This is...Konoha though."
"In the spiritual plane, it reflects your heart and your memories."
"Oh. So how are we going to do this?" Kira came closer to Naruto. She held out her hand and a sphere much like his rasengan appeared.
"I'm going to teach you how to draw out your spirit energy. It's basically using the same principle as your rasengan, but with your spirit energy instead of your life energy."
"Okay." He held out his hand and looked at her.
"Now what do I do?" Kira giggled.
"Close your eyes. Concentrate. Locate your center and feel it in your finger tips." Naruto felt his finger tips tingle. It was very familiar to his rasengan, so it wasn't hard. Kira looked at the amount Naruto had released and was impressed. 'Wow, but I guess this is to be expected. He's got a very strong heart. That's good.'
"You can open your eyes Naruto." Naruto did as he was told and saw the size of his sphere. 'That's big.' but he started feeling tired and couldn't hold on to that energy. It disappeared in a few seconds and he fell to his knees out of breath.

"Why...am I...so tired? It's like...I trained for two days straight."

"It's because you released so much a one time and the fact that your mentally not strong enough to hold it for a very long time." Naruto frowned.

"But I'm very impressed; most first timers can't emit so much energy. It means you have a very strong heart Naruto." His lips parted slightly. Kira clasped her hand together and blushed.

"Naruto-kun kaggoii!(you're so cool!)" She squealed. Naruto fell over onto his face.

"Stop it! That's disgusting Kira!" Kira pouted.

"Why darling?" Naruto sighed of frustration.

"Can we just continue?" Kira nodded.

Naruto was to release his spirit energy and hold that energy for as long as he could. The purpose was to maintain control with one's spirit energy. He was having a hard time at the beginning as he emitted too much energy. Kira supervised over his training. 'He catches on quick.' She smiled.

"And they call him an idiot. How wrong they are." She said to herself. 'I believe in you Naruto. You will be Hokage, I know it.'

"Ganbate darling! (words of encouragement.)" Naruto lost control and was blown off his feet.

"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR?!" Kira giggled. "AND STOP GIGGLING!"

Tsunade was in her office, when she heard a knock. She looked at the door and said.

"Come in." It was Sakura. She raised an eye brow. 'Sakura?'

"What do you need Sakura?"

"I was just wondering how Naruto was doing."

"He should be fine as long as Kira is with him. Are you worried?" Sakura nodded.

"Umm…Tsunade-shishou?"

"Hm?"

"What is Kira like?" Tsunade found this odd, but smirked inwardly.

"Why are you so curious about Kira?"

"No reason, it's just…I don't know, I've known Naruto longer, yet she seems to be closer to him than I am."

"Why does that bother you? All you ever cared about was Uchiha." Sakura looked hurt. Tsunade mentally smacked herself.

"Look, you're an excellent student, but when it comes to friends you're not so excellent. Think about what's more important to you. You're friendship with the people who really matter or your love interests. I'm speaking from experience; you don't have to listen to me, but I would have cherished all my friendships if I could. They are the people that really care and will sacrifice they're own happiness for you." Sakura's eyes widened as Tsunade continued.

"Kira probably knows this best. She never really had a real friend until Naruto and Ino. All her supposed friends betrayed her and are now fighting against her, but she knows who really matter in her life so she isn't sad. Sakura, don't hate Kira because she's close to Naruto, it's your fault for pushing him away. He won't follow you forever." She flinched under those words.

"Umm…where is he?"

"He's training under Kira at the moment. They'll be done later in the afternoon. Come by later."

"Thank you."

Tsunade watched Sakura's form leaving. She hated saying such harsh words, but it had to be said. She hated how Sakura treated Naruto sometimes, especially around that Uchiha kid. 'I don't know why Naruto wastes his time on that lost boy.' continued reading the reports. 'This is so boring…where's my sake.' Sakura walked around the building, then she bumped into Ino. She was holding a bouquet.

"Oh Ino. Sorry I didn't see you." She got up and gave her a small smile.

"That's alright. Umm…do you know where Kira-sama and Naruto, might be?" Sakura looked at her weird. 'Kira-sama?'

"Umm…you're going to have to wait til afternoon to see them."

"Oh ok. I'll come back then." She stared at Ino's retreating form. 'I wonder…'

"Hey Ino. Can I talk to you for a sec?" Ino nodded.

They stopped by the outdoor tea place. They ordered some tea with dango(meatballs…I think). Ino could tell something was bothering Sakura. Along her years of training, she learned how to become an empath, someone who could read peoples emotions.

"Sakura, you okay? You seem nervous." Sakura was surprised, but at the same time not so surprised.

"You always seem to know how I feel." Ino raised an eye brow.

"That's probably because of my family jutsu. Anyways, what did you want to talk about?"

"What was Kira to you?" She was slightly taken aback by that question but answered anyways.

"Well, she was my sensei." Sakura's eyes widened.

"You're what? When?"

"Kira-sama has been coming to Konoha since the past before. I bumped into while making errands when I was little. After the first meeting I bumped into her two more times and she told me that this was fate. Then I became her apprentice. She taught me how to expand my family's abilities to their full extent. But, right after our final session she left without a trace. I was so angry and hurt by that I vowed never to use what she taught me."

"She left because of her family did she?"

"Yeah, I hate them. I've never hated anyone this much in my life well, except Sasuke." Sakura was shocked.

"What?! I thought you liked him." Ino gave her a look of disgust.

"Honey, you liked him. I just did all that flirting crap to get back at you for choosing him over our friendship. That boy is the rudest person I have ever met and now I consider him the stupidest. Choosing power over friendship, how disgusting. I'd rather be with Naruto than him. Heck, even Chouji or Shikamaru." Sakura's head sank.

"Did I…hurt you that much?" Ino turned to Sakura. She felt bad for bringing it up, but it was out in the open so might as well just say it.

"Well yeah, but I got over it. I still consider my friend, but honestly speaking, I don't think it'll be like before when we were best friends." Ino gave her a sad smile. "But as long as we have something, I'm fine with it." Sakura looked slightly crushed, but understood. 'I didn't know I hurt some of my closest friends.' Ino stood up and dusted herself.

"Well I gotta go meet up with Shika and Chouji, they're going to help me train today."

"Are you going to do anything after?"

"Yeah, we're all going to go cloud watching at Shika's favorite spot. Wanna come?" Sakura smiled and shook her head.

"No you guys bond. I'm going to be with Naruto this afternoon." Ino nodded, but before she left she turned to Sakura.

"Hey…why are you so interested in Kira-sama?"

"Huh? Oh, well…because no one really knows her and…he seems so close to her so…" She raised an eyebrow. 'What the heck? Is Sakura jealous of Kira?' Her lips tugged into a smirk.

"Hmm I see, you're scared that Kira-sama will take away Naruto, huh?" Sakura blushed.

"What?! I…"

"Don't worry. Kira-sama can't stay long enough for any kind of relationship. She can never be in a relationship with her life style." Ino looked sad. She quickly turned in the direction she was heading.

"Don't do anything stupid Forehead girl." Then she walked off.

Shikamaru and Chouji were waiting for her under a tree. They saw her walking towards them. She had told them what had happened and stuff. Out of all the teams, they were the closest team. Their bond with each other was what made them so strong, plus Shikamaru's leadership. They smiled at each other.

"Ready to start." Ino and Chouji nodded. Then they walked off towards their training ground. She took the time to examine her teammates and smiled. 'This is good. I'm glad we're all together.'

Naruto was out of breath. He was on his knees and hand breathing harshly. Kira jumped down from a nearby tree. She rested one hand on his shoulder.

"I think we should go back to the real world now." He looked up at her.

"No I can…go on." Kira smiled at his determinations.

"While your determination and passion to get stronger is quite admirable, beginners shouldn't stay in this plane for such a long period of time. It'll wear you out." Naruto frowned. She patted him on the head.

"You're stronger than you think Naruto. You just gotta believe in yourself. You've lasted longer than any beginner I've known. Don't worry, you'll be able to withstand the pressure of this plane more and more as you keep training, okay?" He let out a sigh and nodded.

"Thanks a lot Kira." He gave her one of his foxy grins. Kira openly blushed.

"Aww sho cyoote!" Naruto regretted it now.

"Ahah, get me outta here already you baba! I'm hungry!" Kira took his hand and a magic circle appeared under them. They sank into it and the next thing they saw was the room.

Kira got up and checked up on Naruto. He was trying to get up, but his body felt really heavy and plopped right back.

"What's going on?" Kira reassured him.

"Don't worry, your body is fatigued. Give it about an hour or so and you'll be okay." She looked at the clock. '4 hours, huh? Not bad, for a beginner.' She smiled at him.

"Congratulations! You can withstand 4 hours in the spiritual plane!" Naruto had lazy eyes and spoke.

"Is that good?" Kira nodded.

"I'm trying to get you to be able to stay there as long as possible. Usually if a soul stays longer than it can withstand, it'll deteriorate and then eventually evaporate or get eaten by other souls."

"You sure know a lot about this stuff."

"It's basic knowledge in my world. It's nothing special; you learn these things when you're little. It's like science???"

"Oh."

"You should sleep and rest your mind. I'll go get you something to eat. What would you like?" Naruto thought.

"Actually, I've been craving those pancakes with tea you used to make me during my training." She smiled.

"Right-o! You sleep and I'll be back with food." He nodded and started drifting to sleep. It was easy considering how fatigued he was.

Kira put a magic seal on the door, only those Naruto trust can enter. She didn't want anything to happen. 'Akatsuki will eventually find out what Naruto's trying to do. They will come after him and stop him at all cost. I can't let my guard down.' She bumped onto Shizune.

"Oh, I'm sorry Shizune-san."

"Oh it's alright. What about Naruto-kun and his training?" Kira smiled.

"Ah, he's done for today. He's sleeping right now. I was just on my way to make him some food." Shizune smiled.

"You must really like him."

"I do, he's a good kid. He deserves better. Well, I'm going to get going. Bye Shizune-san." Then she jogged passed her. Shizune looked at Kira run. 'I keep forgetting how old she really is.' She smiled and decided to inform Tsunade-sama on Naruto.

Kira walked passed through crowds and such and made it to the groceries. She was picking out fresh fruit when she heard,

"Well well, didn't expect to see you here Kira-chan." She turned and saw Kakashi-sensei.

"Hello Hatake-san!" She smiled brightly. Kakashi-sensei gave her a friendly wave.

"What are you doing here? I thought you'd be training Naruto." He asked curiously.

"Oh, we're done for today. He's sleeping now. The training I put him through made him really fatigued." Kakashi was slightly surprised. 'Naruto can get tired?'

"Are you here to buy stuff to make him something?" She nodded happily.

"He wanted some pancakes and he doesn't have batter or fruit at his house."

"Would you like me to help you?"

"Sure. What kind of fruit does Naruto like?" Kakashi thought about the times when he would bring Naruto baskets of veggies and stuff.

"I would have to say oranges, pineapples, strawberries, apples and peaches."

"Wow, I always thought Naruto was more of a veggie person."

"Well, he is but he likes sweets too."

After Kakashi-sensei offered to walk her back to Naruto's apartment. This would give him the chance to ask some questions.

"So Kira-chan, what kind of training are you putting Naruto under?"

"I'm trying to build his spirit energy." Kakashi was curious.

"How?"

"The only way to build your spiritual energy is to train in the spiritual plane. Basically I pulled his soul out of his body and place it in a different plane."

"You what? Can you do that? Isn't that killing him?" Kakashi was worried.

"Well, I'm only putting him under a coma. He needs to strengthen his spirit energy in order to fight the kyuubi." Kakashi was stunned by the idea but tried not to show it much.

"Fight the kyuubi?" Kira nodded.

"I'm trying to get his soul to fuse with kyuubi's, that way Akatsuki won't be able to get their hands on it." He looked slightly disapproving to those ideas.

"What are the chances of him succeeding?"

"He only has one per cent chance of surviving this ordeal."

"What?! You're putting him under this training with only one per cent chance of survival!" He was quite angered by this, but he saw her smiling which disturbed him.

"I assure you, he will do fine."

"How do you know for sure?"

"Because he's willing to take this chance and I have complete faith that he will succeed."

"What if he doesn't make it?" Kira's smiled dropped slightly.

"I will have no choice but to kill him." He didn't like the odds of this training. He was frowning until Kira rested her hand on his arm.

"Have some faith in the boy. After all he is your Future Hokage." He's eyes slightly widened. 'Heh, that's right. Future Hokage.'

"Tell me, how much stronger will he get?" Kira smirked.

"I fear for Uchiha-san for Naruto will destroy every wall he worked so hard to put up and break him. Akatsuki will fall and he will become Hokage."

"I see."

"Is that all you wanted to know?"

"Yes." They were in front of Naruto's door. Kakashi decided to have faith and believe in those words. Kira bowed.

"Thank you for walking me here. Would you like to help me make them?"

"I actually have something to do." Kira nodded and went in.

Sakura decided to visit Naruto's apartment. She didn't know what led her there but she was in front of the door before she knew it. Then smelled something sweet.

"Kira-chan?" She called out. Just as she thought, Kira opened the door.

"Why hello there Sakura-san? Please come in." Sakura stepped in.

"What are you cooking Kira-chan?"

"Pancakes. Would you like to help me?" Sakura nodded.

"Can you make the pancakes while I cut the fruit?"

"Okay. Are these for Naruto?"

"Yeah, he was craving my special pancakes. Want some?" Kira offered some to her. Sakura blushed as it melted in her mouth.

"How do you do that?" Kira's eyes twinkled.

"Do you really like?" Sakura nodded.

"Heh-he, when I was little, I have always wanted to be the best chef. I wanted to own my own restaurant or bakery, but sadly, with my family issues that dream was crushed." She pitied her.

"Why do you want to cook so much?"

"I like seeing people eat the food I make and enjoy it. It feels good to know a bite of my food had brighten someone's crappy day, even just a little." Sakura smiled. 'She has a cute dream.'

"I'm sure you'll open something someday." Kira smiled.

"Thank you. Now let's hurry, so we can get this to Naruto." Sakura was glad, she felt her heart feel a lighter knowing that she was helping Naruto and that she was going to see him soon.

Kakashi made his way towards the room Naruto was resting. He wanted to see if he was okay. Then he saw someone unexpected in front of the door. It was Ino with some flowers and a thermos. She turned and saw him.

"Ah Kakashi-sensei. Are you here to see Naruto too?"

"Yeah, what are you doing here?"

"To see how Naruto's doing. It's his first time in the spiritual plane, so I thought I might drop by to give him some pointers." He was slightly shocked.

"How do you know about that?"

"That's because I too was trained there before." Ino looked at the door and felt the barrier. Kakashi was about to proceed when Ino stopped him.

"Wait sensei. You need to ask permission to enter." He raised an eye brow.

"Why?"

"There's a barrier set up. Most likely Kira-sama put it here for safety reasons."

"Hmm…so how is that done?"

"I, Yamanaka Ino with guest Hatake Kakashi, ask permission to enter." An eye popped out and stared at Ino and then Kakashi.

"Permission granted. Naruto-sama has just awoken."

Naruto sat up and saw Ino and Kakashi-sensei.

"Eh? Kakashi-sensei? Ino? What are you guys doing here?"

"Is that how you greet your visitors? You haven't changed a bit." Naruto raised an eye brow as Ino put the flowers next him and started pouring some liquid into a cup.

"So how are you feeling Naruto?" Kakashi asked. Naruto made his thinking face.

"Mm, not very different. I feel the same." Ino gave him the drink.

"You won't feel any difference for a while. Here drink this." Naruto smelled it and it smelled bad.

"What is it?" He looked disgusted, Ino frowned.

"It's a brew that helps restore lost strength."

"That's really kind of you Ino." Kakashi commented. She smirked.

"So how was it like your first time there?" Ino asked.

"It was weird. I was at Konoha, but no one was there, just me and Kira. And my body felt strangely lighter than usual." Ino's eyes widened a little. 'Usually the body gets heavier. Geez…how strong is this guy?' Naruto noticed this.

"What's wrong? Is that bad?"

"Huh? No, actually that's pretty good. Normally your body should feel heavier. Must mean you've got a strong heart." Naruto scratched the back of his head.

"Yeah Kira said that too." He continued to drink while making faces. Kakashi observed Naruto and really saw how much he had grown. He eyed Ino and wondered how much she knew about all this.

"So Ino, what kind of flowers are these?" Naruto asked.

"They're a special breed. They mean energy and trust me, you're going to need lots of it when you face kyuubi."

"Eh?! How do you know about that?"

"Kira-sama told me. Personally I think all this is really crazy, but if Kira-sama has faith in you, then you'll be fine."

From a far distance, word had unfortunately gone to the other side.

"I better warn the leader."
