thanks fur waiting ;)
SUMMARY: While Taro and Yei prepare to save Sakura and Aiko, Naruto's team gets ambushed by the former team seven. Its Sai vs. Yoh, Sakura vs. Masaki, Sasuke vs. Naruto and Kakashi vs, Rin! But, when Kakashi and Naruto go too far, what will be the consequence of Knowledge?
Moving on now :3
OMG we have the BEST bread in the world at my house! My neighbor used to make really good bread but then she moved and I was sooo sad. TT
COME BACK MS. MORDECAI's MOM!!!
"Masaki, your hair is on fire."
The second those word left his lips, Yoh burst out into a spasm of laughter at the man with his flaming... Head. Even Rin gave a chuckle for the crude humor as Masaki raced around the campsite like a mad-man.
"Your feet speed increased for a distance of 1.0045 kilometers in two strides in the amount of time increase by 9 seconds." Naruto's voice quickly switched back to the stern, rough voice they all knew him for. Masaki paid no mind however, and ran to the brook beside them and dunked his head into the slowly flowing icy water.
Masaki was usually the calmer out of the two younger men Naruto was teaching, but the slightest mention of a flame made him have a fit of anxiety. Naruto ignored this nonsense and soon fell into his own mind-stream, a daily routine for the man.
Reality fell away like it was only glass from a shattered mirror, black splotches covered his vision instead. Suddenly, silhouettes seemed to break away from the black stains. Evil yellow eyes grafted onto the black figures, pure evil floating in their bright abyss. Other things began to move away from the security of the shadows, some grew pointed tails and horns, devils.
Others simply opened their mouths, showing countless pairs of jagged teeth, the bone glistening in the fake light. The last kind was the most unique, but the most frightening and disturbing of them all. Spikes sharpened across their arms and dark wings resurrected from their back. Naruto swallowed.
Sound escaped from their inhuman lips, mocking him and taunting happily. Screeches and cries of cruelty pounded into Naruto's soft skull, blood dripped from his high-toned ears as Naruto feel onto his knees. The black figures simply just kicked him and air escaped Naruto's lungs, breathing in huge gulps of un-found air, Voices again tortured his ears.
"Sakura."
"Sasuke"
"Shikimaru"
"Garra"
"Kakashi"
"Sai"
"They betrayed you..." The voice said to Naruto, he didn't look around to find it, but instead listened to the subtle pain that began to dim down. Blond turned into orange as his bangs began to become stained with blood.
"Kill them Naruto. Punish them for being insignificant..."
The eerie voice echoed inside the space packed with demons and Naruto. The demons soon began to screech again and Naruto calmly hummed with the horrid symphony, the names coming in one ear, and leaving the other. Sometimes new names came, as Naruto observed, one came today, slowly opening himself up to his dark past.
"Haku"
"Zabuza"
Suddenly, worry hit him and everything began to fade away as Ink would on a wet piece of paper. Did he really want to go back? Back to the people who tortured him?
Naruto screamed silently, his real eyes opening as reality became real again and his feelings became suppressed by a cold mask. To his rare shock, Masaki was shaking him and Naruto slapped his hand away, Masaki ignored this and said.
"Naruto! We're under attack!" His eyes widened and a team of four emerged from the morning mist, the tallest leading the pack. This leader was Kakashi, his eyes filled with malice and beside him were Sakura and Sasuke, The man's eyes revealing determination and Sakura looking scared of Naruto. Lastly, a boy Naruto hadn't seen before looked up to him, pale skin and black hair with a smiling face. Naruto's memory quickly spoke a name, but no current feeling towards the boy.
"Sai."
"NARUTO!" Sasuke yelled angrily, Naruto could sense the frustration dripping off of the boy.
"I'm not going to let you become like me! BASTARD!" He yelled, Naruto twitched.
Rin, Yoh and Masaki gulped, Their teacher stood up and warmed up his shoulder, scars lining his wrists and and a big one wrapping around his elbow, the last scar destroyed his upper arm an explosion of pain, it looked like.
Sakura wasn't fazed, had seeing this before and the other scars that littered his well-toned body. (Duh, how else could they have a kid!... On second thought, don't answer that...) But Kakashi, Sai and Sasuke nearly stopped in their tracks, Sasuke gritted his teeth. Naruto had saved him from the the Darkness, now he needed to do the same.
Rin quivered, "Shit. They pissed him off now..."
Dirt flew into Yei's sensitive eyes and she meeped loudly in annoyance. Her digger looked at her, scared for the small girl, Taro set a hand on her shoulder, also worried.
"I'm fine." Yei lied, wiping her eyes in an attempt to stop the pain. It was unfortunately useless however, as Yei's eyes spilled over with warm tears. The two had been training all night for two days, Yei's summons taking control of digging an underground training hall and Taro using his summons to spar with himself and Yei. The academy graduates locked themselves in Taro's room for quite a while before finding the ability to summon bigger creatures.
The ones already take on the scroll by Naruto were the Dragon, Wolf, and Monkey summons. Taro had taken Elephant, Horse, and Bird summons, leaving Yei with the Mole, Snake and Tiger summons.
Being a hyuuga, Yei naturally had good chakra control and summoned a third-in-command with only a little effort, despite that however- It depleted a bunch of her chakra to summon such a huge creature all at once.
Taro was a different case, having a portion of the kyuubi's power, his chakra control wasn't as bad as Naruto's but was still in a dangerous low. So, Taro had to tap into the kyuubi's chakra just to summon a slightly big summon, but since he had a big Elephant summon, it was partly okay for him once he had a little more training.
Right now, Yei's mole summons were digging out a tunnel and a giant circular room, this tunnel would lead to the ROOT headquarters.
"Yei, you know you're gonna get in trouble for this too, right." Taro looked at her and Yei stopped rubbing her eyes for a minute to grunt a 'yes.' Before the younger girl could return to trying to shield herself from the evil, EVIL dust, Taro glared at her.
"Why would you say that so easily! It's exile!" Taro yelled, Yei looked at him; unsure of what to do next.
Yei was too tired to think of that now, it was hard to keep multiple summons together all at once. So, she grunted again, Taro huffed and turned back to staring at the stretch of the hollow worm they looked like they were climbing through.
Above them, a few loud voices were muffled to whispers as two parents fought and the roots above them shook. Crumbs of thick dirt fell all around them, getting into Taro's blond hair and turning it into a bigger mess than it already was.
"I can't believe you." Taro growled, secretly thankful for the extra help from her. Yei only hopped of of the giant creature in response, "Like I care, Aiko and Sakura are in there. I'll save them, even if it does mean exile."
Taro fell silent, watching the mole dig deeper into the dark earth.
Naruto didn't really have any reaction, he just simply cracked his knuckles against a tree.
Which fell and crumbled into the dirt, splinters of wood flying into the campfire.
"What did you call me, Idiot?" His voice was just like the Naruto they had heard in the cell, coarse and monotone, cruelty dripping off of his speech. The rest of Naruto's team scrambled into fighting stances, ready to kill on his command.
"Obviously you don't understand the underground world of missing-nin." A twisted grin crept onto Naruto's face, Sasuke gulped; how could Naruto change so much as to become like this?
"Right Rin?" Naruto laughed, like this was all a joke to him and Kakashi gasped, Rin?
But she had disappeared after Obito died, hadn't she? Yes, they found her body with her headband on it three weeks after.
Still Kakashi stared at the young look-alike who was stepping up to face the group.
Rin stepped towards the opposite group, a smirk dangling on her face like Satan himself. But unlike Naruto's shielded eyes, her eyes poured out her emotions, hate, excitement and even happiness.
Directed towards Kakashi.
Rin stepped in front of the old mans path.
"Where the hell are you going?" She purred evilly, twirling a piece of splintered tree in her hands. Kakashi clenched his fist and pulled out a blade from his side pocket:
"Apparently no where now." Kakashi said and coolly flicked the kunai into Rin's, face- she leaped back and then pulled out her own simple sword to fight. Sasuke tried to dodge the flurry of weapons flying from the two ninja, but only succeeded in getting sliced on the shoulder.
Sakura ran to help him, but was stopped by a tall man with a ponytail, his green eyes laughing menacingly. Naruto nodded his head in the vague direction of Masaki, still grinning.
"Masaki would probably understand the cruelty of the ninja world..." In turn, Masaki Side-kicked Sakura, who just managed to stumble weakly out of the way.
She locked eyes with Masaki and he smiled, imaginary wind crawling through his hair.
"I'm your enemy now." Masaki said and with a large sweep of his foot, he crashed his heel into the ground and a burst of underground water spewed out of the thick crevice. Sakura had to skid to the left just before the water blew her into infinity, her knees scraped dangerously against the thick grey and brown dust.
Sai, on the other hand, had problems of his own. Another blue-haired man was blocking his way to get to his precious teammates. Sia tried to get past him, but a large fire jutsu stopped him in his tracks.
"An Uchiha?" Sai whispered, having seen Sasuke preform the jutsu various times. His opponent chuckled and Sai reached for his scrolls, kept in his black backpack.
"Far from it, idiot." The man giggled again and threw a dirty, ragged kunai at Sai, who dodged expertly and began to draw on his parchment.
Naruto nodded at the various fights around them and then turned to his own personal enemy, Sasuke panted, his arm bleeding. Suddenly, a sad smile wormed onto Sasuke's face, Naruto grimaced.
"Bastard, don't smile when you're about to die." He growled and Sasuke only grinned wider.
"Dammit! Don't fuck with me!" Naruto yelled and punched Sasuke straight in his jaw, Sasuke was stunned. Naruto had gotten stronger... To strong. But of course, Sasuke stood up, his solemn facial expression never wavering in the slightest.
"You damn profound..."
"Just like old times. Right Naru?" Naruto stopped, a horrible feeling felt like a rock inside his stomach, his intestines twisting and turning in protest. He felt so dead inside, like Naruto was chained and couldn't move, only wait for his impending death.
"The cure." Naruto thought, hatred burning in his emotionless eyes.
"DAMMIT!" The blond man yelled and plunged his hand into Sasuke's stomach, the receiver of the punch coughed up spit mixed with blood as a response. Naruto watched him fall, the feeling in his gut grew worse, until it was so unbearable time stopped.
Rin freezed in the middle of throwing a kunai, Kakashi already dodging. Yoh and Sai both stopped as well, Sai in mid-kick to counter Yoh's punch. Even Masaki's water stopped as it was just about to bend to attempt to hit Sakura again Sasuke froze, his spit falling on the ground.
As Naruto watched, helpless, the sky was painted black, drops of paint falling into his unblinking eyes. A younger person Naruto had never seen before rose up out of the black horizon.
His sun-kissed blond hair seemed to giggle, it stuck out in all directions. A large white, orange and blue colored jumpsuit covered his body, blue sandals occupied his feet.
"Who are you? Why did you stop my fight?" Naruto tried to yell but it only came out in a choked whisper. The boy laughed, three stripes lined his face, reaching from his mouth to his cheeks. Blue eyes gestured towards a spot in the blackness.
As the blue eyes moved back to Naruto, a light hit the spot where the boy had pointed to. It grew, blinding Naruto and making the ghost child disappear as more colors spread from the light.
Blues and reds, even grey blew out from the yellow light. Whispers, warm ones instead of cold, met his ears helping him- Comforting him. Naruto cautiously stepped closer into the sphere of colors.
"NARUTO!" A young boy yelled, Naruto tensed, hearing his name. The child was about the same age as the young boy he had seen, a blue shirt and pale skin. He looked like a younger Sasuke, Naruto noticed.
The little boy pointed to a second figure, hidden out of sight by a powerful waterfall. The figure stepped out of the water, disheveled and with eyes stricken with sadness. He was covered in water and blood. Naruto silently gasped, it was the boy from before!
Did that mean...?
"I will defeat you!" The young Sasuke yelled and charged at the other child, Naruto nearly choked on his own spit.
This, was him?
"These... Are my memories?" Naruto asked, shaking in excitement and terror at the same time.
He watched his sorrowful other half protest as the supposed Sasuke tried to kill him over and over with a jutsu called "Childori". Naruto soaked up the feelings of Younger Naruto, Sadness, pain, disappointment and other sad feelings stabbed the man like a spear.
But Naruto didn't care.
He could finally feel something...Real.
"Sasuke... When I'm with you, I wonder if that's how it feels to have a brother." Naruto whispered, they were both standing on a log solemnly.
Naruto gaped, he had this relationship with.... Sasuke?!
Then, light began to dissolve, Naruto yelled n protest but instead a strangled sob came out of his hoarse throat.
"NO!"
Rin and Kakashi were both screaming at each other heatedly.
"You think this is a fucking joke?!" Kakashi yelled, Rin smirked evilly like she had been doing for a while now.
"Yes, yes I do." Rin cackled, Kakashi snapped for the last time.
Before she could sense him Kakashi had pinned her to a tree, choking her and demanding questions:
"Why are you impersonationg her? Do you think hurting me like that is FUNNY?!" Kakashi screamed, almost spitting his words if he didn't have his mask.
"Who the hell are talking about?!" Rin yelled back, equally as angry.
"Rin you bitch! RIN!" Kakashi sounded worse than a banshee, even Yoh stopped to take worried glance at Rin before moving on to quickly dodge another one of Sai's creatures flying at him. Naruto seemed to come out of his trance and mutter something at Sasuke, who seemed shocked and overly joyful at the same time. Masaki also took a long look at Rin, who at the current moment, was struggling against her executor and then cut through another one of Sakura's rocks.
Kakashi let go of the girl after she kicked him in the stomach repeatedly and stepped away his eyes hostile and cold. Rin still stopped, not knowing how he knew her.
"R-rin? You knew her?" Rin asked so happy she could almost burst. Kakashi's glare softened a little, but only enough to answer her question curtly.
"I was on her team, she died." The old man said coldly, Rin seemed to shiver before returning to her happy state.
"B-but you still knew her right? You knew my mom?!" Rin shouted, finally bursting out in excitement, but instead of everyone rejoicing, instead it was virtually silent. Kakashi slumped to the ground, completely shocked, tear drops welled in his eye.
"Yes, I knew Rin-Chan."
Yei blew out some hair from her face and released the mole summons from their posts, a large amount of chakra drained from her and she collapsed, Taro caught her and she felt tears fly out of her eyes.
"I don't know what to do... Taro" The said person could only hold onto his tired friend and rub her back, whispering words of comfort.
"Clam down Yei. We'll get through this I promise."
But in his mind, Taro was sobbing like a child, even wrorse than Yei. He was so scared, Aiko and Kaa-san were going to die because of him. Yei was going to be sent into exile. Naruto was going to die. Even Taro himself would suffer. Everything was his fault.
These four words echoed in his mind, chilling him to his very core. Because they were true it was:
All. His. Fault.
