Deidara rose to his feet after the punch from Naruto. He rubbed his jaw, and had to admit the brat packed a punch. A slow grin formed on his face as he saw the blonde quickly running towards him.

"So, you wanna play?" he said as he created four more small birds. "Then let's play!"

Naruto glared his eyes more as he saw the rapidly approaching birds. He rose his fore arms to guard, and was blown away as the first collided with him, causing a massive explosion that caused the earth to shake. The orange clad genin didn't expect that, nor the following explosions as the three remaining birds hit him and sent him to the ground.

"Naruto!" Ino yelled as she looked on with tears. She couldn't believe that she just saw her classmate get killed, right before her eyes. Ino fell to her knees and stared into the smoke cloud that came from the explosions.

Deidara smirked. "Art is an explosion," he said lowly. He then fell to one knee. "I put the last of my chakra into those birds for an extra effect." he rubbed the back of his head before he rose to his feet. "I hope I didn't kill him, Pein will definitely have my head."

Deidara slowly made his way towards the disappearing cloud. With the amount of chakra he had, Sasori was going to be an angry guy, considering he would have to carry him. He should've let the old bastard do the destroying of the city, then he wouldn't be so low on chakra. "Oh well," he said as he continued to smile, "I did all of the work, anyways."

XxxoxxX

"What was that?" Kurenai yelled as she witnessed the large explosions. She knew that Ino didn't know any jutsu that caused explosions, nor did Naruto.

"That was the end," Sasori responded in his deep voice, Causing Kurenai's eyes to widen. He turned away and looked towards the rising cloud of dust and smoke. "Deidara's just finished his first mission."

Kurenai stepped towards the ninja. "What are you saying?" she yelled at him. S ranked shinobi or not, she didn't care if her students were on the line. "Did he..."

"Kill them? Possibly," the doctor said matter of factly. As she noticed Kurenai tense up, she continued to speak. "The girl is the only one still there. The other two, I can't feel their chakra."

Kurenai fell to her knees. "N-no..." she said. "It can't be..."

" If Deidara killed him, I hope he's ready to take on that demon," Sasori grumbled low enough so that the women couldn't hear. Sasori stood still as he looked on. Something felt off, and his intuitions were usually always on point.

"Get up," Kurenai looked towards her mother. She saw the lady removing her doctors coat, as well as her pants. The lady was wearing a ninja suit underneath, similar to the ones that anbu wore.

"W-what are you..." Kurenai started, but was cut off by her mother.

"I don't know about you, but I don't take kindly to being bossed around by a couple of thugs." She continued to speak as she tied her hair into a long blue ponytail. "This man came and killed my friends, as well as one of your students, and, correct me if I'm wrong, the son of Minato."

Kurenai looked at her mother with a shocked expression. She couldn't believe that she was prepared to throw her life away. As her mother finished her preparing, she continued to stare at her. In all of her life, she never saw this side of her mother.

"Kurenai, I see you have your father's eyes. Are you great at genjutsu?" her mother asked as she pulled a capsule out of a pouch on her waist.

"Y-yes," Kurenai said, still in shock at this new mother of hers.

"That's good," the elder lady said. The capsule poofed open and she grabbed a long katana. The blade was long and slim, it looked sharp enough to cut through bone with no problem. The hilt of the blade was blue and gold, with black trimmings along it. She gripped the blade and turned towards Sasori. "I fight close. Cover me!" she yelled as she took off towards the man.

"W-wait!" Kurenai yelled to deaf ears, as her mom was already approaching the masked man.

Sasori lazily looked towards the approaching lady. As she swung at his head, he effortlessly leaned back to avoid the strike. The lady continued slicing at him, and he effortlessly dodged each one.

"You are starting to annoy me," he said with a low growl. "Begone!" Before the lady could register what happened, she released a pained scream as she was struck across the chest.

"Mom!" Kurenai yelled as she watched the lady fly back. The man revealed a long silver scorpion-like tail and quickly dispatched her mother with a single swipe.

The lady slowly stood to her feet and looked at Sasori. "Cheap shot, eh?" she said. "It's not nice to catch a lady off guard, you know.

Sasori snorted. "In case you haven't noticed, I could give a damn about chivalry. Do you check the gender of a bug before you smash it?" he drawled out.

The doctor scooped up her sword and looked back at the man. Now that he revealed his trump card, she had o find some way to dispatch it. She quickly glanced over her shoulder at her daughter, and saw a determined expression on her face. She couldn't help but smirk at that.

"If I'm a bug, I'd prefer to be a black widow!" she yelled as she charged back at the masked man. She jumped to attack high, and wasn't surprised as steel met steel. She pushed off of the tail and went through seals. "Lightning style! Lightning ball jutsu!" A small ball of concentrated electricity was sent spiraling towards Sasori. The man nonchalantly swiped the ball away with his tail.

"I don't like to waste my time. You'll be dead in two minutes," he said with confidence. Sasori then saw a mist spreading across the plains. He glanced towards the raven haired lady and saw that she disappeared

"How can she be dead in two minutes," he heard behind him. "If you'll be dead in seconds!" Sasori looked down as he felt a tree coiling around him. A thick vine also wrapped around his tail, preventing it from moving around. He saw the black haired lady poke her head out of the tree and stab him in the chest. As he looked down at the wound, he also saw a blade come from the front and stab him in the stomach.

"Got ya," he said. In a split second, his tail was free of the vines. It whipped backwards at first, causing a scream from Kurenai. At the same time that she thudded on the ground, a sickening squelch could be heard.

As Kurenai shakily rose to her feet, the sight in front of her sickened her. The mans long tail was sticking straight out, and at the end of it was her mother.

"No!" Kurenai yelled at the top of her voice. She flinched as Sasori casually tossed the lady on the ground in front of her.

"If you have any last words, say them." he said as he stared on in amusement.

"Mom!" Kurenai rushed to her mother's side and lifted her head onto her lap. She couldn't stop the flow of tears that streamed down her face. Her mother stared at her with a loving expression.

"Kurenai... I'm sorry..." she said weakly.

"Don't speak, save your strength!" Kurenai said. She held her hand over the fist sized hole in the ladies chest and channeled chakra into it.

"No, save yours," her mother said. "Take care... of M-Mark. H-h-he wants to b-be a f-f-fighter... Make him s-strong..." she said as her head fell limp.

Kurenai stared at the limp figure in her arms. She couldn't register what just happened. She just lost her mother. The mother that she was seeing for the first time in years. There was only one thing that she could do.

Cry like the little girl that her mother remembered.

Sasori looked at the scene in front of him. His cold heart couldn't help but feel for the lady. He knew the feeling of losing his parent, not in front of him but still. He didn't have it in him to finish the girl off.

But if she provoked him, he would unite them once again.

XxoxX

Naruto slowly opened his eyes. He sat up slowly and rubbed his throbbing head. The last thing he remembered was feeling explosions rock his body. He quickly looked at his arms and saw that they were free of any scars. "Weird..." he said as he rose to his feet.

It was then that Naruto realized his surroundings. He was standing in what appeared to be a sewer, with water up to his ankles. He could hear the sound of dripping, and it just made his surroundings even more creepy.

"Might as well walk around," he mumbled as he rose to his feet. Each step that Naruto took echoed, making him realize the size of this place. It had to be gigantic! "I hope there isn't any ghosts in here.." he mumbled. He then froze. "Dammit, why'd I have to say ghosts?" he said as he quickened his pace.

After what seemed to be an hour, Naruto froze at a cage. The cage was humongous! He could only wonder what was hidden behind it. He noticed that the top of the cage had a single sheet of paper that said seal.

After a minute of deciding what to do, Naruto finally decided to take a peek into the cage. It couldn't hurt to see what was inside, could it?

Naruto slowly walked tot he cage. After taking a deep breath, he slowly leaned in.

Naruto nervously looked, bu after not seeing anything happen he decided to get bold. "Hey! Anybody home!" Naruto heard his voice echo, but no response. He then decided to lean onto the cage.

Big mistake.

Naruto swiftly jumped back with a shriek as a large clawed paw reached for him. He fell to his butt, and looked into the cage. He was shocked to see two large slanted pupils glaring at him. "Wh-wh-wh-what's th-th-that!" he yelled in a high pitch.

The clawed paw continued to reach through the bars at him. He saw a large row of teeth, each tooth was larger than him in size. The fave leaned closer and showed to be a fox.

Naruto's eyes widened with fear. It was the Kyuubi.

"I'll kill you, you brat!" it yelled at the terrified blonde. Naruto crawled away quickly, trying to hide the tears that started to flow. The fox glared at him with an intense snarl on his face. It then sat up and glared at the young blonde.

"Are you..." Naruto said weakly. "The Kyuubi?"

The large fox snorted. "No, I'm a freakin' pixy. Of course I am, you half pint piece of shit!" it growled at him. Naruto could feel the large amounts of killer intent washing off of the demon in waves.

"Where am I? How did you get out!" Naruto yelled.

"I didn't get out, but if you lean on my cage again, I most definitely will!" The demons large nine tails swished behind him and Naruto could feel the power washing over him in waves. He was stunned at how this demon could be inside of him. "This is your mind, you shouldn't be surprised how empty it is. You're brain is empty, after all.

Naruto took offense to that and decided to get brave. "You leave me alone, you big fur ball! You're stuck in here whether you like it or not!"

"Quiet!" Naruto froze as he saw the look of evil anger in the demon's eye. "Don't you DARE speak to me in such a way you insignificant human, do you understand me?" he more demanded than asked. After Naruto nodded furiously, the demon smirked. Nothing was more amusing than seeing fear in the eyes of those beings that tried to enslave him. "Good. Now let me make myself clear, I would love to see you dead," Naruto's eyes widened at that as he continued to shake, "but that would mean that I would die to. In case you didn't notice, that blonde bastard is about to end your pathetic life. You would have been dead a long time ago if it weren't for my help. Now, tell me insect, do you want to die today?"

Naruto glared at the demon. As much as he was scared, hee wasn't going to let him speak to him like that. "NO I don't want to die. And in case YOU didn't notice, you live inside MY head." The fox glared at the smaller being. "And this brain is small as you've pointed out, there isn't enough room for the two of us."

"So what, are you going to kick me out," the fox grinned at him. "I would love that, very much actually."

"No, if you're going to live here, you have to pay rent! Give me some power, so I can toast that bastard!"

The demon looked at Naruto with a amused smirk. As much as he hated the way this kid was talking to him, he admired his guts. His red chakra began to leak out of the cage and bubble at Naruto's feet.

"I'm giving you this, but not to help you brat, but to keep you alive so I can kill you myself.

Naruto smirked as he felt the power of the chakra. He felt unbelievably strong, Hell he felt that he could beat Kakashi-sensei!

"Now get out of here, and don't disgrace my name!" the Kyuubi yelled as Naruto was forcefully expelled out of his mind.

XxxoxxX

Deidara continued to smile as he stepped towards the unconscious genin. The boy was durable, he still was intact despite the explosions that racked his figure. At least he didn't have to deal with Pein.

Deidara froze as he felt a spike of chakra. He continued to stare ahead as he noticed red chakra bubbling out of the young boy in front of him.

"Crap, I gotta end it now!" he said as he gripped a senbon and prepared to throw it at the boys heart. Screw Pein, he'd go into hiding before he let the Kyuubi kill him. "Die!" he yelled as he swung his arm to throw the needle.

Deidara was shocked as he felt someone inter his head. He looked around and saw the blonde girl standing in his mind scape.

"Dammit, what kind of jutsu is this?" he yelled at the girl.

The smirking blonde girl looked at him. "I'm a Yamanaka!" she said proudly.

Deidara growled at the girl. "Get out of my HEAD!" he yelled as he ran towards the girl.

"Gladly!" she smirked as she left his mind scape

Deidara grabbed his head as he realized he was back in control. When he looked forward, he realized the blonde was inches from his face.

"Crap," was all he could mumble before he was rocked with a punch so hard that his body jerked back before he was sent flying away. Deidara wasn't given a moment to rest as he saw the boy running quickly after him. The Akatsuki member was kicked hard in his stomach, which caused him to vomit, then punched into the jaw. He felt heat radiating off of the boy with each hit that landed.

Ino could only look on with both amazement and fear. Her friend had completely changed. He was no longer the Naruto she knew, the funny, sweet boy that she grew to like.

No, he was a monster.

Naruto was beating the boy senseless. His style was unlike any taijutsu she had ever seen he was running on all fours like a Inuzuka, but he was sloppy with it. He also had something that shocked her.

He had a shroud of red chakra. And also a tail. A tail made of chakra.

Ino decided that it must have been some hidden Kekkai Genkai that he had and just awakened. Whatever it was, it came just in time to save them from total destruction. She just hoped that he wouldn't harm her in the process.

XxxoxxX

Sasori continued to stare at the lady crying over her lost mother. He was getting tired of it, and he also noticed the spike of chakra that could only be the Jinchuuriki. He took one final look at the lady and sighed.

"She's not going to come back, just because you cry over her. Do something productive with yourself, get stronger. Don't let her memory go to waste," he said as he began to walk away. He noticed that this only caused the lady to cry harder, and honestly at this point he could give a damn.

"Fire!" he heard a yell. He glanced over his shoulder and saw a small needle being shot at him. He effortlessly dodged it and glared at the attacker.

There, he saw an unexpected sight. There stood a young blue haired girl, holding a gun. Beside her was a small figure with a bowl cut of black hair. He noticed the look in the boys eyes and could only deduce that it was the dead woman's son.

"Mommy!" He yelled as he rushed to the ladies side. As he neared the corpse, his tears stream flowed more fluently. He couldn't move, he just stood frozen in fear at the sight of his sister with his dead mother on her lap.

The boy looked at Sasori with a look of rage in his eyes. If the kid was actually any threat, he would have surely been afraid. Luckily, he was not.

"You bastard, you killed my mother!" the boy screamed as he looked towards the masked bandit. Sasori chuckled.

"Wouldn't that make you the bastard?" he said dryly. This caused an expression of hate to cross the young boys face, and his sister to cry even harder.

Bulma looked at Mark and knew what he was about to do. "Mark no!" she yelled as he took off towards the man.

Sasori sighed. He didn't want to have to kill the child, but he was getting really pissed at this situation. He raised his tail once again and quickly stretched it to impale the boy.

"Mark!" Kurenai shrieked as she watched wide eyed as the blade continued to stretch towards the boy. Mark's eyes widened in realization. He realized too late that he just signed his death warrant.

In the blink of an eye, the sound of metal hitting metal echoed around the area. Sasori glared hatefully as he realized the scene in the front of him. His tail was in an epic war with a blade, held by a gargantuan toad. This could only be one person.

"Jiraiya," Sasori said as he jumped backwards to avoid a spiraling ball of chakra that left a huge crater where he stood.

"Ah, Sasori of the Red Sand. You have quite the bounty on your head!" Jiraiya said with a stern expression. Behind him, Master Roshi was holding the raven haired warrior, who was having a break down, crying in his arms.

"As much as I'd love to fight, times up," Gamabunta said, which received a nod from Jiraiya away.

Sasori grunted. As much as he hated to admit it, this was a fight he had no chance of winning. "My quarrel isn't with you,"

"No, it's with my student. So technically, yea it's with me." Jiraiya shifted his foot for better leverage and began charging a much larger rasengan.

Sasori quickly thought of a plan of action. He dropped the bandana off of his face and opened his mouth wide to reveal a cannon.

Jiraiya snorted. "Trust me, that won't work on me," he said.

"I know," Sasori said as he turned his aim towards the crying Kurenai. He fired a rapid volley of needles at the frightened lady.

"Crap!" Jiraiya quickly dispelled the giant ball and jumped in front of Kurenai. Quicker than the eyes could see, he went through the signs tiger, horse, boar, ram, rat and ended on snake. "Needle Jizo!" he yelled as his hair wrapped around him and hardened into a barrier. The senbon bounced harmlessly off of the shield. As the assault died down, Jiraiya released the barrier and saw that the puppet user was gone.

"Damn it!" Jiraiya said as he looked around. He looked at the ruined city and shook his head.

"Roshi, I'm going to find Naruto. Make sure that these guys aren't hurt too bad."

"Right!" the older man yelled with a nod. He then looked towards the crying lady on the ground as Jiraiya ran off. A smile spread his face. "I'll make sure to check every inch for injuries," he said with a perverted giggle.

XxxoxxX

Deidara slowly pulled himself to his feet. He was being beaten around by the little blonde brat for the past ten minutes, but it felt like hours. His usual cool demeanor was totally gone, and was replaced with a young boy, one that Deidara thought died long ago.

For the first time in a long time, Deidara was scared.

"Get up, you bastard!" Naruto yelled with venom in his voice.

Deidara stared at Naruto, gritting his teeth. His body was shaking out of his control. His face was battered, his right eye was swollen completely shut. He stuck his hand in his coat to try and mold some clay into chakra.

Before he could register what happened he released a feral scream. Deidara looked down and saw Naruto had his hand on his arm. The older blonde fell to his knees as he tried to wrench his arm from his opponents grip.

"Ghh! Let go you freak!" he yelled in panic. The pain traveling through his arm was immeasurable. Deidara stared into the boys red eyes and saw nothing but anger.

"Is this what you did to Goku?" Naruto asked in a low tone. "Made him SUFFER!" Deidara let loose a whimper as Naruto's grip tightened. "I'm going to make you feel it, tenfold!" A loud cracking sound was heard throughout the city, and followed close behind was a blood curdling scream.

Deidara fell cradling his arm as he rolled on the ground in agonizing pain. Tears involuntarily fell down his face as he held onto his limb. He tensed up as he saw the boy walk up to him.

"Y-you demon!" he yelled at Naruto. Naruto tensed as he heard that word. The word that everyone in his village called him. This caused his anger to rise even more. Naruto released a feral cry as he gathered a ball of red chakra into his open palm. The ball spun with ferocity as he stared the blond down.

Deidara's eye's widened He could feel the power pulsing in the attack. This would definitely be his last breath.

"Go to Hell!" Naruto yelled as he lunged towards the boy.

Naruto was shocked as he felt a hand grab the back of his shirt and toss him back a dozen yards. He looked up angrily and saw his teacher, Jiraiya glaring at him.

"What the Hell, Pervy Sage!" Naruto yelled angrily. His chakra flared at the older man.

Jiraiya calmly looked towards his student. Things must have gotten pretty bad if he was using the 9 tails chakra. "I won't let you do this, Naruto. You're not in control of your actions."

"I am!" Naruto yelled at his sensei. "He killed Goku!"

Jiraiya flinched at this. He slowly turned and glared at Deidara. "He did what?" he said in a low tone.

"He killed Goku!" Naruto yelled through tears. He couldn't control himself as tears started too fall.

"Naruto, calm down. I know that it's hard to lose a friend, but that's the life of a shinobi."

"Goku wasn't a shinobi! He was my best friend!" Naruto yelled through the tears. He cloak of chakra slowly started to fade as the tears streamed down harder. "He was... my" Naruto fell, but was caught by Jiraiya into a hug.

"It's OK, champ." Jiraiya ignored the tears and snot that protruded his clothing and was rubbing onto his stomach. "I know you want to kill the guy, Hell I do too. But we can't, not yet. We have to take him to be examined by Inoichi. We could find out their purpose."

Naruto sobbed into his sensei's shirt. He could only think about Goku. The laughter of the boy. The smile that he always wore. The only person that he could say he was smarter than. The more he thought about the boy, the harder he cried.

"G-Goku!" Naruto wailed once more before he fainted from his exhaustion.

XxxoxxX

Soooo... another chapter! I'm surprised myself. Did y'all like it? Does it sound believable? I hope that I'm capturing the characters correctly. If not, point them out and I'll try to keep y'all happy.
