Finder77: Oh yeah! Thanks for all the reviews I've been getting. I don't own Naruto. I'm dedicating this chapter to my reviewers!

Warnings: In this chapter... The story will become one that includes Yaoi. That means dudeXdude pairings! So if you have a problem with that, please don't read the story! And this chapter might get a little confusing. Sorry.

REMEMBER: DUDE on DUDE PAIRINGS, DAMNIT!


Kai came out of the store, looking over his purchases, then started looking around for Naruto, thinking that maybe he went ahead back to Gaara's tower. He blinked when he saw a familiar head of hair, but wearing different clothes and with no demonic chakra. Walking over, he tapped the guy on the shoulder. "Hey, fox-boy, ya learned how to suppress your chakra or somethin'?" When the guy looked at him, he just blinked. "Oh, you're not him. Okay, sorry to have bothered ya." Closing his eyes, he uses his demonic senses to pinpoint Naruto's chakra. "Oh, there he is. Sorry again." Kai waved at the blond before heading off in Naruto's direction.

"...Well that's never happened before..." 'A demon vessel!..' Lotz sighed, 'But not MY demon vessel... Still, what are so many doing in Suna all at once? Should I follow him? No! Naruto's close! First I will find him and then I'll worry about this shit, if it becomes a problem. But where is that brat?'

"There's only one way to settle this!" Lotz grabbed a long wooden pole on the ramen shand and pulled it free, bringing the structure it was formerly holding up down on the heads of the ususpecting costumers. Not that it mattered...

Lotz then placed the wooden object in front of him, holding it with the palm of one hand. He stepped back and the let go, allowing the wooden pole to fall flat on the ground, pointing in the direction of a single demonic chakra and one fainter one. 'That MUST be Naruto!'

"Finally! The search continues! BWAHAHAHA-HEEHEE!"

And just like that, he was off like an insane blonde shot... In the wrong direction!


Kai blinked but ignored the mad laughter that reached his ears, finally finding Naruto and dragging him away from magazines he was 'studying to help improve his sexy jutsu'. He wasn't gonna ask what the sexy jutsu was, the name alone was enough to give him the shivers. "Well, not much else we can do now... Might as well head back to the others an' see if Shukaku's human can think of somethin'. Or we could just annoy his siblings." Sharing a grin, the two begin plotting as they head back to the tower, Kai glad to hear the blond's as big a prankster as Kyuubi had once been.

Kai and Naruto got to the tower and headed upstairs, deciding to check on Gaara and Mitsuko before playing a prank, both freezing when they peeked in the door to find the two kissing on the couch. Both looked away, Naruto just not wanting to see Gaara making out with another one of his friends, and Kai just respecting their privacy. In all the time he'd been alive, he'd seen much much worse. Clearing his throat, he started to lead the Kyuubi-container away.

No sooner than the two demon vessels had walked out the door, there was a loud booming sound behind them and the walls shook slightly.

The couch the two teens had been making out on was overturned and where the window had been now stood a tall, tan, skantily clad, blonde youth in a giant gaping hole in the wall.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO NARUTO!- eh? hey! Your not Naruto!.. Balls of Mars!" Lotz yelled pointing at Gaara who he had heard of only by reputation and never seen before and thus wouldn't know who he was, "Aren't you supposed to be dead? Where's your son? Oh shit! YOU'LL NEVER TAKE ME ALIVE! YOUR JEDI MIND TRICKS WON'T WORK ON ME, Fool!" Lotz jumped back in a defensive stance, a insane look in his eyes.

"Ow," said Mitsuko as she and Gaara got up. "What the hell is going on?"

At the noise, Kai hurried back into the room, Naruto behind him. "Huh? Oh, you're just that guy that looks like the fox-boy." He turned to look at the person in question. "Hey, do you know who this guy is? He looks a little like you."


5 Minutes Ago

Lotz sang quietly to himself as he stepped over the unresponsive body of the shinobi stationed to the building across from the Kazekage's tower. Pulling a small pair of binoculars from his bag, Lotz peered through them into the window in which he sensed the demon chakra. Unfortunatly the curtain was drawn but fortunately he could still see the outline of two people on the couch... And if he wasn't mistaken, they were going at it!

'Noooo!' At this point, Perverted inner Lotz and Protective Older Brother inner Lotz were having a heated debate which resulted in Pervy inner Lotz getting pimp slapped by Big Bro Lotz. 'That's it! I'M GOING IN!'


Back to Normal Time:

"No. Sad to say we are not acquainted. But that'll change real soon. Right, Naruto..." Lotz purred with a leer.

"No! Not another pervert! Stay away!" yelled the younger blonde before invoking the Sexy Jutsu!

Lotz was frozen in place before it. Seeing his chance, Naruto turned and ran away. "NO! Wait damnit! NARUTO!" Lotz yelled as he chased him around.

"GO AWAY!" Naruto threw over his shoulder, and kept running.

Kai used this time to bow apologetically to the couple before going to help Naruto, using his demonic chakra to enhance his speed so he caught up to Naruto quickly, and disappeared with him. After all, the demons had to stick together, even if Naruto was only a carrier. Kai pulled Naruto with himself so they randomly appeared and disappeared in different parts of town to confuse anyone trying to follow them, before reappearing finally in the Kazekage's tower again. "Ya okay? An' before I forget," Kai smacked Naruto in the back of the head. "I didn't wanna see that!"

"What are you gay?" asked Lotz, leaning in the door frame and breathing slightly harder, "Not that I mind: Quite the opposite in fact." He leered at Kai this time with a quick wink.

"AAH! The pervert's back!" Naruto yelled and pointed at the older blonde.

"Well duh! The next time you try a move like that," he adressed Kai now, "Wait till we get a little farther from were we started. And it doesn't help that there are three demon chakra signals in one lil room. Not that it matters. Damn, boy's fast!"

Lotz walked over to a fallen chair, righted it, and sprawled in it, looking perfectly relaxed. He sighed once before adresseing Naruto again, "Okay, Let me get right to the point. I'm here to teach you Naruto."

Kai raised an eyebrow at the leer he received from Lotz, then watched him. "Well, ya don't seem like much of a threat to me. I wasn't tryin' to help out the brat here. An' what do you plan on teachin' him? An' why would you want to?" Suddenly remembering the question, Kai crossed his arms and looked away. "I prefer the term 'bi'. I'm attracted to people I respect, more than people who simply look good. That woman he turned himself into was not appealin' in the least."

"Riiiiight. Whatever you say, lad." Lotz grinned at Kai running his tounge over a sharp canine. "And whats your name, 'ey boyo?"

His arms still crossed, Kai glanced at the new blond. "I am Kai. Now why don't ya try introducing yourself before we just go with Naruto's suggestion of 'pervert'? After all, you're wantin' to teach him, you gotta give us a name first." His pale blue eyes narrowed. "An' since ya seem to notice our chakra, I'm telling ya now, I am NOT a jinchuuriki, do not refer to me as one. I've already had someone make that mistake, and it's annoying."

"Hmm... Hmmm... Hmmm... Okay! Kai, whatever your last name is... Shut up!" Lotz snapped before turning his attention back to Naruto and stood up. "My apologies," he said with a dramatic bow," My name is Lotz Domnicus and I am here to train Naruto so that he will have a better chance of becoming Hokage, on the request of Jiraya."

'This is not a good idea,' Lotz warned himself.
'Nobody knows where that freak is. Who's gonna tell him? And if I have my way, he won't be going back to Leaf till I'm done with him,' part of him argued.
'Word travels fast. He may come looking for the boy.'
'Then we'll just not be were he's looking!'
'This will not end well...'

"What really!? Wait, Kakashi didn't say anything about a new trainer to me..." Naruto frowned.

"I showed up in Leaf soon after you left. I brought it up with him while you were away," replied Lotz, sitting back down.

"So he's okay with this? Tsunade too?" asked Naruto.

'Nope!' "Yep!" Lotz smiled.

With a frown, Kai watcheed Lotz, "First, I don't have a last name. Second, do ya know who Naruto really is? Ya know everything?" Kai moveed closer to Naruto and pokeed his stomach, at the seal. "And why do you seem like you're nervous? I can't smell as well as them, but I can hear your heart poundin' like you're lying or somethin'. You leavin' something out?" The only reason Kai hadn't mentioned about who he really was, was because he didn't know how much this new person knew, and wasn't taking any chances. Yet.

"Ow!" Naruto responded to the poke to his belly.

Lotz smiked at the pensive young man, "I consider myself both excited and a little nervous to have a chance to train the Kyuubi vessel. I believe Jiraya taught you a little bit about controling and using the demon's chakra to your advantage, yes? We're going to futher that lesson a little. Also, in order to become Hokage you'll have to move up in the ranks of the shinobi as it is. And even though the tradition is so old it creeks, sword play is still among the requirments of the job. That's where I come in."

Lotz leaned back at his chair, 'I might like this Kai guy! Nah, too much like an Uchiha! Shame, he's cute.'

Kai blinked at the information, then turned to Naruto and grinned, patting his shoulder. "Well, whadda ya know, fox-brat! You're gonna learn to use a sword!" He looked at Lotz, grinning like normal. "Since ya already know about the Kyuubi boy here, lemme introduce myself right." Kai uncrossed his arms and bowed politely. "My name is Kai, and I'm the Hachibi no Ryu, the eight-tailed dragon, one of the only biju that had never been sealed. Nice to meet ya, and I'm glad to hear you'll be helpin'. Seems these Akatsuki guys have been huntin' down jinchuuriki."

'Specificailly Itachi. Oh, the Irony... I hit on a dragon!! Cool!'

"Never been sealed?" He asked, letting his eyes roam over the other form and smiled up at the dragon-boy, "Knew it was too good to be true. There's no way all that's narural. Unless you're one of them fleckin' Uchihas, of course." Lotz threw the name out there, jaw tightening, waiting for a reaction to the name, just to see were he stood with the Uchihas. "Awfully polite for a being of great and terrible power..."

Kai frowned and tilted his head to the side. "Uchiha? I think I heard of 'em. Heard the youngest two betrayed their villages. The idiots." He snarled in annoyance, the whites of his eyes turning black before returning to normal. "Sorry. An' yes, I try to be polite. To people who seem to be allies, at least. And until ya actually attack me, I've got no reason to think otherwise. I've lived a long time, I'm not as short-tempered as I used to be." He grinned. "An' yes, I'm all natural. Though this is just my normal human form. I prefer not to have people running and screamin' from me. Bad for my reputation, ya know." Still grinning, Kai tightened the band on his hair, and looked at Naruto. "So, you wanna train with him? He hasn't attacked us yet, so I say, if he can make ya stronger, good."

"Why are all my senseis perverts?" asked the boy sulkingly.

"Just lucky, I guess. Ya wanna become Hokage, right?" Lotz asked a little impatiently.

"Yeah! Believe it! When do we start?! " he said excitedly before a small worried look showed on his face, "... and uh... How long do you think this will take? The last time it took two years."

"That is entirly up to you, boyo," Lotz smiled softly at the boy now. It was a rather handsome smile on him, "And we leave as soon as we get outta Suna. Preferably ASAP."

"Huh?" the younger blonde frowned, "Why so soon?"

Lotz scratched his head, "Well..." He thought for a moment, glancing towards the Kazekage who was currently kissing his sandy-haired girlfriend on the now-overturned couch. It seemed the two had been pretty much oblivious throughout the conversation.

Kai looked at the two on the couch, one eyebrow raised, before turning back to Lotz and Naruto. "Lemme guess, you two are gonna go off somewhere, train, then come back when you're done, an' I get to stay here." He frowned at the idea of being stuck in a village for a long time. "Hey, Mitsuko, I guess we can stay here 'til it's time for you to go home, then I'll take ya back to your village. I did wanna try all those fish you mentioned." As his mind traveled back to his favorite food, his eyes glazed over and a small smile appeared on his lips. After a few seconds, he shook himself out of it. "What?"

Mitsuko paused for a moment with Gaara, "Yeah, okay," she responded to Kai's comments. "But first, there's something I have to finish with." She smiled, showing off multiple perfectly white canines.

Gaara suddenly realized what she was talking about. "Mitsuko, you should just let it go. Pretend it didn't happen," he suggested hopefully. But she was already standing and taking off her jacket, revealing a fishnet top with armor covering her front.

Mitsuko charged at Lotz and shot a light bolt easily from her palm that blasted him through a window and out the building.

Damn, why isn't she my sensei? thought Naruto. Well, she is a girl...
Mitsuko jumped out the window after the blonde and Gaara yelled, "Don't kill him! He's not worth it!" after her. She landed on the ground forming a fairly large crater and dove at Lotz who was just getting up.

Lotz managed to yell, "Oh SHI--" before he was cut off by more light bolts.


Finder77: Yeah, well I may have skimped on the editing job of this... because I did it by eye and not with spellchek like I normally do for online fics... Anyway, please review!
