Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, Yu Yu Hakusho, Metroid or the movie, One Piece, or anything else I might add. Besides, it's my story and I can do whatever the hell I want with it.
Kenshin: Movie?
Zeke: Yeah, Metroid is coming out with a movie, sometime in 2009 if Zelda comes out. It's probably gonna be better than the Soul Calibur movie.
Kenshin: Zeke, not now. The important thing now is what to do with Sakura.
Zeke: Dump her on some nice guy in the story. Someone who is interested in a relationship like Namikaze. Anyway, But what about the new short?
Chapter 11: Memories of Shinobi: Uzumaki Konan
"Tell me, you didn't just say you forgot." Pein asked his subordinate Zetsu, who was ashamed for losing track of thought. This was a week after he left Konoha, and in the hidden base of Akatsuki.
"My apologies, Leader. What were the orders again?" Pein pressed his head against a wall, pounding into it and making cracks on the side. "You were suppose to head to Konoha, and give Naruto a message. Now remember this carefully, cause I ain't saying it again."
As Pein retold the mission, Zetsu nodded, and left. This time he would complete it, knowing the message and how important it is. Soon after he left Konan rose from the shadows, approaching the auburn haired man she cared about. "Pein-sama, we have to tell Naruto. I don't think my sister can forgive me if he doesn't find out."
Konoha...
Naruto was in the forest again, on a nice afternoon like this he trains instead of relaxing with his wives or friends. He was lying faceup on the earth along with Sasuke. After Sasuke had a trial, and was set free since he was only faking trying to kill Naruto, the council forced him under the watchful eyes of the Hokage, meaning he had to stay in her home. And it seems everytime he gets lost he ends up getting beaten for being a pervert.
'It's a shame he has no sense of direction. Whatever Orochimaru did to him he fucked up.' He thought, turning to his Mirror-move friend. They had just finished a friendly spar, only it somehow ended with part of the forest being leveled. Sasuke was really proficient with his swords, even more so than Tenten was. But then again she specializes in alot of weapons and not just katana, so go figure.
"What did, you say your style was?" He asked the Uchiha. Sasuke turned towards him and smirked.
"I studied in Santoryu: The three sword style. It was only mastered by one person, a samurai, and he's kinda dead now." He spoke, rising onto his butt to look at the sky. "I even got that stupid snake to give me these as a gift." He holds out the three swords he had.
"So you must be a samurai-ninja. Any chance Orochimaru might come after you?" Naruto had made a brilliant question; Surely the Snake Prince wouldn't have just let him leave without a fight. Either Sasuke became too strong to be captured, or that snake bastard has some trick up his tongue.
"Who cares? He can't take me away now. I still got more important things to worry about, like how to kill my brother, and how to get popular with girls again now that they saw me as a traitor." Sasuke said that last part with a little hesitation. After all before he left the village he was Mr. Sexy, and fangirls are annoying.
"Oh well. I guess I can help you with that. After all, we're nakama right?" Sasuke nodded. Those words couldn't be any more true than they already are.
"But how is it that you're attractive now?" Naruto swung his head back, confused as to what he meant by that. "No no, not that. I mean you've got Hinata. She's a quiet and gentle girl, with a masochist side and large breasts. There's also Ino, a woman who is a wonderful gardener with a very nice ass-"
"You're gonna tell me the attributes of all of them aren't you?" Naruto interrupted, knowing full well what the answer will be. Sasuke nods, thinking that it's only right to state something he might have missed. 'He probably doesn't know that she likes it in the butt.'
"You're lucky man. There's that jonin sensei of Hinata, that snake lady that dresses like a tramp, and the one with the weapons, you know the brown hair with the pinkest flesh?" He knew Sasuke was mentioning Kurenai, Anko and Tenten. "Man, I really see what I've been missing. Even Sakura preffers you now."
Those words caused Naruto to cringe, and turn to face him like his eyes were rolled back inside his head and his teeth looked sharper than a shark's. "Nani!? But she loves you, right?"
"Nope. Not anymore. I learned this without her knowledge; She was sleeping by my bedside, after taking more of her anger out on me." Sasuke started, forcing a chuckle out of Naruto's mouth. "Anyway, she was mumbling something about her saying she loves you, and you favoring her over 'Ino-pig' or something like that. That's all I heard."
"..." Naruto paused. He didn't ask Sakura if she wanted to marry him, but just hearing Sasuke say from his own lips that she preferred him over Mr. Prince was pretty hard to swallow. "Maybe I should speak to her...someday." And with that, he gets up and heads inside. Sasuke just watched as he moved.
"Where does he get the energy? It's like he was born with monster powers." The Sharingan user quoted. He then moved his back to a tree, and fell asleep, his three swords being held by him closely.
Somewhere...
'Naruto, I hope you can forgive me on behalf of my sister.' A blue haired ninja thought, as she took her time towards Konoha, apposed to Zetsu who morphed in the ground and sped off. 'He'll get there in two days. I'll probably make it in 3.'
The woman then held a hand sign out, forming a Tora seal. After a while she was brimming with energy, which stopped as soon as it started. Then her body became flat; I mean paper falt. It was like someone squashed her and she survived the impact. Soon her body was like a couple of drawings put into place so as to make a picture of her.
Then the papers scattered. Each slip began to flutter in the air like a butterfly. Soon each paper commenced folding together, creating an origami butterfly. Each one took off towards the southwest, where Konoha recides.
Two Days Later...
Naruto had continued to ponder the thought of what to do with Sakura. He could ask for her hand in marriage like he did for the others, but then he would have to get support from Ino since Tenten and Hinata might become appauled about it. Shrugging, he decides to go for it. Rising from his bed he heads towards the kitchen, and finds Ino making breakfast.
"Ino-chan, how's it going?" He asked, as she turned around and gave him a kiss on the lips. Looking over her shoulder he sees that she was making eggs and bacon.
"Oh, I'm just making something for Anko-san over there." She pointed to the Special Jonin sitting in the chair next to him. 'I hadn't even noticed her.'
"So, Naruto-kun, will you be giving me my treat today?" Anko asked, as her index left hand finger went up and down his right arm. He pulled away.
"Kurenai said that I need to be 18 when I can sleep with you two yet. That's why she held back trying to get me. But I need to speak to Ino now."
"Ok." Anko says, then rises up from her wooden seat and moves onward to the other room. 'I want something.'
"Ino, I just learned that Sakura loves me and not Sasuke. Is that true?" He asked, and the platinum blonde smiled.
"Of course. I've always wanted you to ask her someday. After all, me and her are best friends, and I guess we won't be having to fight one another when me and her and together with you. Atleast, that's how we felt. I say go for it, I'll settle the rest out with the others." She says, finishing the rest of the food. "Anko, you're ready?!"
And with that, Naruto took off, heading into town to look for the girl he loved back in his younger days. As he made his way through the main street, he couldn't find hair nor hide of the pink haired brawler. "Where is she? This is taking too long. I wish I could just teleport to her!"
"Can't blame you. It'd be alot better if we could just teleport to places we want to go." A voice said, as a plant-headed man nodded while beside Naruto.
"I hear ya. I w-" He froze, finally realizing what just happened. Turning slowely around, and making creeking sounds, he looks at his supposed conversation intruder: a member of Akatsuki. He didn't recognize him though, but he knew all of them were big trouble. He jumped away a few feet, and readied his hands in a fighting style.
"You must be one of them. Why are you here?!" Naruto blinked once, and his Hibikigan turned on, forcing everything to go grey again. The citizens walking the streets all freaked out as some even screamed; guess they've never seen a plant-man before.
"I'm not here to hurt you. Someone just wants to give you a message." Zetsu spoke. For some reason, whether it be the fact that he was telling the truth, or whether Naruto was just a gullible idiot, he lowered his guard.
"You've got 3 minutes, before the ANBU get here." Those were his only words, as he sat down on the earth indian style and waited. After Zetsu gave his speech, Naruto was at a loss for words. His mouth was left gaping in the air, as Zetsu merged with the earth and left. At that time Kakashi and Kenshin came by.
"Naruto, what happened?! We saw a plant with Akatsuki robes go in the ground." Kenshin said, causing Kakashi to sweat drop.
"Anyway, what he means is, what was he doing here? And why didn't he attack you?" The jonin sensei asked, as Naruto finally overcame his shock. Rising up from the ground he pointed to the Hokage Tower.
"Take me there. I'll explain it in the presence of Baa-chan." He said in a clma exterior. KEnshin sighed, thinking this would be a drag, and grabbed Naruto and Kakashi, before flashing away to the Hokage's Office.
Inside Kenshin appeared with Naruto and Kakashi in hand. Letting them go he began to lean against a wall. "Now Naruto, care to explain why an S-class ninja didn't try to ninja-nap you?"
Dropping sweat again, Tsunade recovered first and took out a bottle of sake. "Yes, Naruto. Please explain carefully. And don't leave out a single detail." She spoke.
Naruto let out a groaning sigh, then placed his hand onto his right eye, injecting his index and middle left hand fingers as well as his thumb inside the socket, taking the eye out. Blood began to splatter out from it as all three ninjas were shocked.
"How can you do that without being in pain?!" asked Tsunade, a little worried at why her favorite baka just took out his own eye.
"Calm down. This will tell you everything he said to me." He then held his right eye in front of them, with the doujutsu still active while his empty eye socket was closed, and squeezed it, bursting it.
But unlike a normal eye, it didn't squirt out blood. Instead it scattered into tiny sparkling particles of light, spreading throughout the entire room. It passed by Kenshin, Kakashi, and even the Hokage. They both gasped when they heard a voice speak:
"Naruto, this is urgent. No, I'm not the guy in front of you telling you this, he's Zetsu. No, I'm the active and front leader of the Akatsuki organization. I wish to apologize to you for ordering my members to capture you and other Biju. I also wish to apologize for someone who killed a friend of yours. I think he was Hidan, never liked him.
Anyway, I am not the true leader of this organization; it's a man named Tobi. He is a devil whos true name can't be revealed for the safety of Zetsu, but he used to be from Konoha, during the time of the Shodaime. I, on the other hand, am no stronger than he is, and even with my advance Hibikigan I don't think I can win.
He will soon know about this, and when he does he will kill me. I'm leaving you to protect someone dear to me, and her sister who was your mother. You can meet her at the gates of Konoha a day after you receive this message. Please, if not for me, take care of her for your mother.
Your Otouji, Pein."
At the end of the message the lights gathered together, and went towards Naruto's empty eye socket. It was still closed when they went through the eyelids, so it might take some time. "And that's all of it."
"Naruto, how did you do that?" Kakashi asked, still trying to process the fact that he took his eye out and the info he just learned. Naruto turned to him.
"Oh, that was another part of my doujutsu powers. By having them on it can somehow also record audio sounds. So whatever I hear can be brought back completely and accurately. By removing it and squeezing it til it scatters I can have the people around me hear it as well." Naruto carefully explained, as they each got it. "But Tsunade, I want to know something: is what he said true? Is there really a relative of mine still alive? Is this Pein person my father's brother!?"
Tsunade was starting to think; She knew Pein, and remembered him being the man who killed Hanzo and his nakama, while at the same time being strong enough to be viewed as a god to the Hidden Rain Village. But never had she thought about him being related to Minato in anyway possible. Granted she never met him face to face, but it's the same situation.
"I don't know. If he really is your uncle, if this woman really is your aunt, if what this man said is the truth, then all we can do is wait for tomorrow to come. That's all I can tell you." She said, causing Naruto to look real depress.
'I can't believe it; I have one last family member left...But what if this is some cruel joke!? I don't care. If this person claims to be part of my blood, then it's only fair that I see if they're telling the truth before I go on a rampage.' Naruto finally reasoned in his head what to do, and began to leave.
"Naruto, be careful. It might be a trick." Tsunade said, watching the blond leave in a zombie fashion. Looking around she saw that Kakashi had left, and Kenshin was sleeping, again. "WAKE UP!! ONLY I SLEEP IN HERE!!!"
Amegakure...
"You what?!" Back at the Akatsuki base, Pein was lying facedown on the floor, the result of a kick by an orange-spiral masked man. Pein rose to his feet, wiping the blood away from the corner of his mouth with his right thumb.
"What? You can't hear right? Better take that mask off, Madara, because I ain't some damn tape-recorder." This sent the masked man off the edge, who was releasing some type of dark fumes off his left arm.
"Then let's review; You sent Konan to the Hidden Leaf Village away from me, and told the Kyubi Jinchuuriki, the same vital shit who broke the statue and set those demons free, who I was through that retarded vegetable!?" You probably couldn't see it, but through that spiral's hole on the right side, you could see a fully mature Sharingan spinning, staring down the now known Namikaze.
"I only told him you were the real leader. If anything, you should be grateful I kept your stupid secret. Because from now on, I don't work for you!!" Pein rose to his feet, and pulled out a kunai hidden in his sleeve. Activating his eyes he rushed forward to attack.
Pein cut his knife deep within the Uchiha's throat, looking as if the fight had ended before it even started. But the only thing that came out, was smoke. And not just any smoke, black smoke. It was like some kinda inner form of darkness. It wrapped itself around the kunai, and Pein's arm, slowely seeping down his cloak, and around his entire body.
'I...can't...move...' Were his only thoughts, before he felt something snap. Minutes later, blood was splattering everywhere, and a bloody scream could be heard.
Tomorrow...
Today was the day Naruto had been waiting for; the day he meets this lady. He gets dressed in an aqua green jacket with matching jeans, and a white t-shirt underneath, then checked his right eye and saw it was back to normal and inside. He crept slowely out his room, hoping not to wake up his fiances, or Sasuke, and lept out the window after grabbing an apple. Eating even the core he makes his movement towards the gate, but gets stopped by a girl with two meatballs on her head.
"Tenten! What are you doing here?!" He asked, hoping she wasn't here for his company. He had successfully put on his happy-go-lucky facade in hopes to quell any hopes she might have had of following him. But she just stared at him.
"You can't fool me with that mask. I love you too much to be fooled. Besides, I already know about your mother's sister." She said, causing Naruto to flinch noticably. "Tsunade-sama told me, and wants me to accompany you to meet her. Any answer other than yes will result in no sex from any of us until our marriage."
Twitching at the thought of waiting so long, Naruto sighs and grabs Tenten, moving onward to the gate. There the couple sat beside the entrance, waiting for the guest to come.
"So, what do you think she'll look like?" Tenten asked. Naruto could only shrug.
"I don't even know who my mother looked like, how will I know who she-" He was interrupted by what he saw in front of him; lots of origami butterflies were flittering towards him. They entered the village, circled TEnten and Naruto, then formed in front of them. The origami began to unfold in mid-air, turning back to sheets of paper. The paper began to form into a body, then outlined to make the curves and such, then filled with color and air at the looks of it.
What formed from it was a beautiful woman. She had blue hair swelled down with a white flower on her hair, white blinking eyes, pale looking skin, and what was covered were the Akatsuki robes. Blinking once she said, "Ohaiyo. Watashi wa Uzumaki Konan."
End Chapter...
Kenshin: We forgot the short.
Zeke: I couldn't think of one. Anyway, Konan gets put under the protection of Konoha, and mostly Naruto. We see the result of Tobi and Pein's fight, and new people come in.
