Previously on NARUTO TCG…
"Alright, my draw(3)…"
"Hold it right there!"
Just then the large voice rushes to the rescue. It's Naruto Uzumaki. And he's ready for a challenge.
"I challenge you to a duel!!" he calls out.

NARUTO TCG
Chapter: 10
THE BEAST WITHIN
PART 1: Little Kit
We now see our favorite knuckleheaded ninja standing tall and ready to fight. "Naruto Uzumaki is here! Yeah! Believe it!"
"Naruto," Kakashi calls out, "you drew too much attention to yourself. you should've stayed hidden."
Zabuza throws some Shuriken at Naruto, and he prepares to defend himself. To everyone's surprise, Haku uses his needles and protects Naruto.
"Haku, what is this?"
"Zabuza, these kids…, let me fight them my way."
"Hmm, so you don't want me to interfere, Haku? You're just as soft as always."
Sasuke is really in a fix. "With those mirrors on the field, it's too hard to attack his ninja and takes damage to him. Worst of all, this is a shadow game. But with Naruto outside the field, maybe he can get me out…"
Too late. Unfortunately, Naruto stupidly entered the area.
"Hey Sasuke! I snuck in here to save you! How'd you like that move?"
"Naruto," Kakashi calls out, "you sneak up on your enemy, not your ally."
Sasuke is livid. He wonders who would be foolish enough to walk right into a trap.
"You are a complete loser! You're a shinobi, think carefully before you move!"
"What the heck's your problem?! You should be thanking me for coming in here to help you!"
"Naruto, if we're both inside...grrr...forget it! I've had it with your mistakes! I'll win this without your folly! "
"And I've had it with your attitude! Believe it!"
Haku returns to the mirrored arena. "It is time to continue. I discard 1 card to play Zabuza(CZ:1)(1), then I discard 1 more card(CZ:2). Next I discard both cards to allow each ninja to attack, starting with Zabuza(CZ:0)."
Zabuza dashes toward Sasuke and slashes him with his sword, leaving a shadow in placed of where Sasuke was cut.
"Next Haku."
His avatar attacks both Sasuke and Naruto implanting them in needles, taking a total of 3 battle rewards(BR:9). "What just happened?" Naruto groaned bruised.
"It appears that whoever enters the arena in a shadow game is part of the danger." Kakashi says.
Haku is impressed by the persistence of his opponent. He contemplates deep into thought…
"It was not my desire to be a shinobi." Haku finally speaks up, " It's painful. I don't want to send you to the shadow relam, but if you advance, I will have no choice. Then I will kill the kindness in my own heart, and fully embrace the shinobi way. Then there will be no mercy, no turning back. This bridge will be the battle field where our dreams collide, now I must fight for my dream, just as you fight for yours. Please do not blame me. I fight for someone who is precious to me. I live for him, and I'd face death for him, so that his dream will become reality. That is my dream, and for the sack of that dream, if I must, I will act a shinobi, and send you into eternal darkness."
"That's not going to happen, Haku!" Sasuke yells.
"Yeah, Sasuke!" Sakura calls out. "Don't lose to that guy!"
"Sakura!" Kakashi says, "Don't cheer them on. Even if he can find a way to defeat Haku's technique, he cannot beat Haku. Those two don't yet have the strength to brush aside their emotions and kill their opponent, or in this case, send them to the shadow realm. That young man knows the true pain of being a ninja."
Sasuke continues the duel. "My draw(1). I play Sasuke on the field. That's all I can do."
"I pass(1)."
"Draw(1)." Sasuke looks at his card in belief. "I discard 2 fire cards plus 1 more card(CZ:2) to play Fireball Jutsu and deal 1 damage to Haku." Sasuke's avatar fires a giant ball of fire at Haku, forcing him to injured state(1/1). "Now I discard 1 chakra card(CZ:1) and attack!" He then attacks one of the mirrors containing Haku, deleting both in the process. "I end my turn."
"My draw(2). I play my turn 3 Haku(E:3/H:0/health:4\2/injury:3\1) onto the field. Next I discard 1 card to the chakra zone and use it to attack(0)." Haku's avatar throws a needle at his opponent and injures him(0/0). "Your turn."
Sasuke is now in panic 'I can't believe it!' he thought. 'I can't summon ant more ninja to defend me! I'm going to lose!' He stands there in silence, with his hair covering his eyes.
"It is time to end this(1). I discard 1 card to the chakra zone and use it to attack…"
Just then Naruto steps in front of Sasuke to defend him.
"Move out of the way." Haku says "I won't hesitate to destroy you."
"Look! What you do to fight for your dreams is beyond me! But if standing on this spot can help Sasuke beat you, I won't move!"
"So be it. FINAL ATTACK! CHIROPRACTIC SHOWER!"
Haku's avatar transports himself to all of the mirrors and shots out his deadly needles as Naruto shuts his eyes hard. He then opens the to expect himself dead, but only to look up to Sasuke standing above him in a defensive stance with needles buried deep in to his body. Naruto was shocked.
"You should see the look on your face." Sasuke said in a low and rugged voice. "You look like a total loser."
"But… but why…" Tears begin to well up in Naruto's eyes.
"You… I hated you."
"Grrr… I didn't ask for this! I didn't ask for you to save me!"
"I don't know. My body… it moved on its own. There was no time to think."
Sasuke collapses into Naruto's arms "He's still out there… … my brother… … I promised… I have to stay alive… until I killed him." He is then enveloped in a shadowy veil and shifted away like smoke.
"Naruto," Haku stands out of the mirror. "In some way you are special to Sasuke. You can expect to see your friends experience the same fate as long you seek to be a duelist…"
"SHUT UP!! I will not forgive you for this!!" Naruto is furious. His tears run down his face. His fists clenched as hard as they could. Then all of a sudden, as he stands up with his head lowered to face Haku, the ornament around his neck glows a bright red-orange, slightly floating in front of his chest. And then…
A bright orange circle appears below Naruto's feet. The circle has a red double tetra gram seal on the inside with an orange 8-sign seal on the outside. As a tunnel of red-orange chakra shoots straight out of the circle, the 8 signs begin to crack. And with a booming voice…
"KYUUBIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!"
The outside signs shattered, and the chakra tunnel increased its speed of flow into a geyser, then diminishing into a tiny beam of light and disappearing to reveal a different Naruto Uzumaki. This one has orange highlights on his spiky blond hair.His now opened orange and blue jacket reveals his black undershirt. His face now reveals his whisker marks. He now stands tall with his
right hand on his hip and his left wrist carrying a shinobi shield. And as he quickly raises his head, it reveals his blue eyes now with orange highlights.
"Haku! I will not forgive you for what you've done to Sasuke!" Naruto shouts out. His voice is once again deep and heroic. "If it's a shadow game you want, it's a shadow game you'll get!"
Haku is ready for another round "Alright. Let us begin."
Both duelists converted their shields into duel mode.
"LET'S DUEL!!" they both shouted out.
