Rock band Anbu-style

Chapter 11

Suna Concert.

(Music 1 Atrophy by Red Jumpsuit Apparatus)

(Music 2 Through the Fire )

(Inside of The village hidden in the sand)

(three day's since their return from wave)

"I can't believe this, we just get back from aC-rank mission that turns into an A and then we get sent on a D-rank to Suna. I mean can't he at least give us a little break?" Kiba was complaining loudly, Akamaru hiding deep in Kiba's hood to hide from the sand.

"Kiba what are you complaining about you just get free room, food, free backstage passes, a lot of freedies to bribe you, and you are getting paid," Naruto said rubbing his temples a new bad habit that was showing itself more and more.

"Yeah, but I mean, what is with all of this traveling. Akamaru and I hate the sand, plus the sun," Kiba said.

"Fine then next time there is a concert I will go by myself, If you are whining about seeing a band that everybody loves for free and getting special treatment," Naruto threatened.

"I am sure Kiba didn't mean that Naruto," Kurenai said silently her mind was screaming. 'No, if Naruto starts doing these missions by himself then there is no way that I would get backstage passes to One Man Concerts. I can not let that happen,'

"yeah I am just joking," Naruto said rubbing his temples again.

"Where is Hinata now anyways?" Naruto asked looking around for his teammate.

"I don't know, I would guess that she is enjoying a little sight seeing around Suna," Kurenai said. "We have today to rest before the concert starts,"

"Well you guys do I have several things on a to do list from the company," Naruto said.

"Like what, promote the concert or something?" Kiba asked.

"No, there is no need for that, the concert is sold out already," Naruto said. "I have to meet with the Kazekage's children, apparently two of them really love my music. I will be wearing full disguise so they can't find out who I actually am,"

"Why do you have to see the Kazekage's kids?" Kiba asked not seeing the politics of the matter.

"Well that would be the benefits of being a Kage's child, they get stuff that normal people couldn't," Naruto said looking at the sun again. "I have to hurry or I am going to be late"

Naruto started running through Suna to meat at the appointed place a building about three blocks away from the Kage's tower. Putting his mask and sun glasses on fairly quickly. Naruto just managed to get another overlong scarf around his neck green this time when a large mass of sand attempted to grab Naruto, but he managed to dodge the moving sand.

"Gaara what are you doing?" A sand blonde girl asked in apparent fear of a red haired boy with a gourd of his back. Said boy had green eyes glinting with evil intentions. There was a tattoo on the boy's forehead with the Chinese/Japanese symbol for love.

"Mother wants his blood," Gaara said holding a tattoo on his forehead as if in pain sending his other arm in Naruto's direction which apparently controlled the sand that was attacking him.

"Why are you attacking me," Naruto said flipping into the air landing on the side of a building only to have to instantly leap off because the and was following him. 'Damn these things are pretty fast and with my weights on,'

"Gaara stop it," The Blonde girl said pulling a fan off of her back that Naruto didn't notice before.

"Don't interfere, you will get hurt," Naruto yelled through his mask still moving fast enough just to dodge the moving sand. Naruto took out his scroll taking out one of his plain guitars, Naruto would have thought of taking out Densetsu but he didn't want to kill the boy, for some reason he had a feeling that attacking the boy with the intent to kill would be a very bad idea. "Ninpo: Ballad of Binding"

(Music)

Don't tell me this is your last chance to change
'Cause if you do, then you would be telling a lie...but...

I warned you
What could happen if you should decide
To live your life from 9 to 5
And I mourn you
For the detail that is left unsaid
Is a reminder of the time you bled

Return to days when you knew you still felt alive
Reveal the way you felt when you could look inside

They sold you
Everything you need to fix you up
And you feel good now but you can't wake up
They found a way to reassure you
(That everything would be okay)
Reach out today now I emplore you to remember who you are

Return to days when you knew you still felt alive
Reveal the way you felt when you could look inside

So you felt it, but you don't know
Why you can't explain at all
Why you felt it 'cause you don't know
No, you don't know

Break the walls between building atrophy
Causing all your problems to recede
break the walls between
(Break the walls between)
Causing all your pain
(Causing all your pain)
You'll never learn...

Return to days when you knew you still felt alive
Reveal the way you felt when you could look inside

Take Back
The beat in your heart
Why Fight
When you can't be bought
x4

(Break the walls between building atrophy
Causing all your problems to recede
Break the walls between
Causing all your pain)

(end)

Naruto was managing to play this song while having to dodge the sand that was still attacking him, no matter what he just couldn't seem to get away. The deranged boy however looked as if he entire body was being constricted by some invisible force.

"Must have his blood," Gaara said again straining against Naruto's music Genjutsu.

"CALM DOWN," Naruto said a strange feeling though out his body, a strange malice that was almost tangible and that feeling came out in his voice. Gaara stopped struggling seeming to regain some kind of control he seemed to have lost while he was attacking. Gaara stopped fighting the genjutsu just letting himself fall onto the floor being caught by sand that came out of his gourd.

"Let me go," Gaara said with complete athority in his voice.

"Have your sand stop attacking me," Naruto said continuing to do back flips off the building to avoid the dangerous sand. At about the same time Naruto said that the sand stopped it's assault and returned to the bound boy. "Thanks," Naruto said snapping his fingers and as if by magic the red head boy stood up.

"Sorry about that" The blond said looking at Naruto's appearance and how he seemed to be really thorough to cover his identity.

"No problem, but does he do that often?" Naruto asked looking at Gaara who was standing there like a statue.

"He does it fairly often but he doesn't lose ever so you are a first," The blond haired girl said. "I am Temari, why are you here, and who are you?"

"I am supposed to meet the Kazekage's children here. I am the guitarist for the One Man," Naruto said disguising his voice. Naruto was interrupted by Temari pouncing on him knocking him to the ground. "Hey whats going on?"

"You are the guitarist for the One Man, oh my god I love you guys," Temari seemed to be attempting to squeeze every last breath out of Naruto who was turning blue with the pressure.

"Please... let... me... go... I... can't... breath," Naruto wheezed, Naruto used small amount of force to break out of Temari's grip. "I would guess that you are one of the three children of the Kazekage,"

"Yes, yes I am," Temari said very flustered. "This is my brother Gaara."

"Is there one more?" Naruto asked, looking around for another person that wasn't shying away from the three shinobi.

"No, our other brother doesn't like your music as much as we do," Temari said very out of breath and blushing now she was looking at the blond.

"Wait you like my music!" Naruto shouted pointing at Gaara surprise clear in his voice.

"Yes, yes I do," Gaara said. "Your music give me some control over myself."

"What does that mean?" Naruto asked putting his guitar away in his seal scroll.

"So you are a ninja, from what hidden village?" Temari asked with wrapped attention as if she was trying to distract Naruto from Gaara's statement.

"Yes I am a ninja, but I would prefer it if I withheld the info from where I am from," Naruto said looking at Gaara trying to gauge his emotions but since Naruto was so bad at this he could only tell that Gaara seemed to be calmer now.

"Wow, so you are a rock star and a shinobi at the same time," Temari seemed to stair in wonderment.

"Yeah, So what did you guys want to do before the concert," Naruto said looking at the pair, Gaara smiled in a way that Naruto should have known was going to be bad for his health.

(Three hours later)

"Okay this is ridiculous," Naruto complained as he was dodging several sand shinobi throwing kunai, shuriken, and futon jutsu at Naruto, Gaara, and Temari. "I know this is fun but I am going to have to get ready for the concert soon,"

"But this is just getting fun," Temari said just a head of Naruto who was right next to Gaara.

"Yeah, well even if putting graffiti on the Kazekage tower was fun but why did we make it so obvious, I mean a bright pink sea turtle, next to a blue raccoon playing a gold guitar, I mean come on," Naruto said "I wouldn't have guessed you two to be so much the prankster,"

"We do this every other week when we can get our hands on some paint," Gaara said his eyes filled with true amusement for once.

"I never said it wasn't fun I am just saying that this is getting ridiculous," Naruto said seriously considering taking his weights off so he could lose the shinobi or take out his wind guitar and blow them to kingdom come. "and why the hell did we paint those things?"

"Well I like sea turtles and pink is very noticeable, raccoons ares something personal to Gaara, and the guitar is the symbol I came up with that represents you the most." Temari said still moving.

"Okay I guess that is okay," Naruto said looking back to see if the sand shinobi were still following them. "Aren't you two supposed to show some respect to anything that relates to the Kage's since you are the Kage's children?"

"Yes, but that would only be if our father had our respect," Gaara said smiling an amused smile.

"Okay, I guess that is getting a little personal so I will drop it," Naruto panted starting to feel the strain of running for two hours strait with weights on. "Don't they fear you or something, I mean people were shying away from us when we were walking in the street,"

"Well they fear Gaara but after we pull off something like that people have three hours before Gaara becomes a true threat, he is just in too much of a good mood until then," Temari said.

"Seriously lets get to the concert area, I am starting to get winded." Naruto said puffing lightly.

"I thought you were a shinobi," Temari taunted not knowing about Naruto's handicap.

"Well even a ninja has limits," Naruto said as they rushed to the concert hall.

(Inside the concert hall three minutes later)

The guards let them in with no trouble recognizing Naruto letting him and the two shinobi leading him through while stopping the six shinobi following him because Naruto told the guards to stop them.

"Well now that those two are off our butts, I have a question for both of you," Naruto said panting leaning against a wall to support him.

"Yeah..." Temari asked panting lightly not as hard as Naruto but she was used to the Suna sun.

"I have been wondering why people like my music so much, I know my music is good but I wonder what other people think." Naruto said now wiping the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.

"Well I like the music because the emotions that you bring out with each song is well amazing. Plus all of your music is totally awesome," Temari said.

"I like your music because it calms me down, and keeps me in control. Music calms the savage beast after all," Gaara said. He didn't say this but listening to the One Man calmed Shukaku so much that Gaara was allowed to sleep.

"Well that is interesting," Naruto said looking at a clock mounted on the wall. "I have to start practicing for the concert, I would say for you two to get your other brother to get ready for the concert."

"Sure, Guitarist-san," Temari said walking away quickly. Gaara however seemed stayed.

"Gaara I am sorry I can't really hang out anymore I have to practice," Naruto said looking at the clock again.

"I have a request for you to play," Gaara said a serious look in his eyes.

"Uhm, I will have to see but I probably can put whatever music you want," Naruto said putting his hands behind his head.

"Could you play, Through the Fire and the Flames," Gaara asked a sense of killing intent laced with his demands.

"Uhm," Naruto was running through the list of music the company told him to play here. Naruto thought he saw the name in the middle of the list. "Sure Gaara, you can listen to it later."

(Three hours later)

"How is everybody doing tonight," A announcer person of no real importance was saying to a jam pact stadium everybody was booing him and chanting "One Man, One Man, One Man..."

"Well since I seem to be so unwelcome let me introduce people that don't need an introduction, The one and only ONE MAN," The announcer person said disappearing in a puff of smoke to reveal Naruto full costume holding a mike, Two clones fell from the rafters landing on their feet each holding one of Naruto elemental guitars Water and Fire. The Naruto that was an announcer pulled out one of his special drumsticks the kanji for fire at the base of each.

"This first song is a dedication to one of my fans and hopefully a new friend," Naruto yelled from the drummers possession. Naruto started drumming while his clones started playing. Flames were exploding above the crowd who started panicking but as some of the people tried to get out of the way, water the came out of nowhere dosed the fire leaving people with stars in their eyes.

(Music, Through the Fire and the Flames.)

On a cold winter morning, in the time before the light
In flames of death's eternal reign we ride towards the fight
And the darkness is falling down and the times are tough all right
The sound of evil laughter falls around the world tonight

Fighting hard, fighting on for the steel
Through the wastelands evermore
The scattered souls will feel the hell, bodies wasted on the shore

On the blackest plains in hells domain
We watch them as they go
Through fire and pain and once again we know

Tonight we fly ever free
We're free before the thunderstorm
On towards the wilderness our quest carries on
Far beyond the sundown, far beyond the moonlight
Deep inside our hearts and all our souls

So far away we wait for the day
For the light source so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames we carry on

As the red day is dawning
And the lightning cracks the sky
They raise their hands to the heavens above
with resentment to their eyes.
Running back through the mid-morning light
There's a burning in my heart
We're banished from the time in the fallen land
To a life beyond the stars

In your blackest dreams we do believe
Our destiny this time
And endlessly we'll all be free tonight

And on the wings of a dream
So far beyond reality
All alone in desperation
Now the time is gone

Lost inside you'll never find
Lost within my own mind
Day after day this misery must go on

So far away we wait for the day
For the light source so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames we carry on

Whoah, whoah, whoooooah, whoah, whoah, whoooooah

Now here we stand with their blood on our hands
We fought so hard now can we understand
I'll break the seal of this curse if i possibly can
For freedom of every man

So far away we wait for the day
For the light source so wasted and gone
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
Through the fire and the flames we carry on

(End Music)

When Naruto finished the last beat on his drums everybody cheered for more, more of what Naruto was only to ready to oblige.

(In the crowd)

"Wow Naruto is getting bolder," Kiba said, "Those flames could really hurt somebody,"

"I am guessing it is just for that song, you know through the fire and the flames," Kurenai said after shouting with the crowed.

"I wonder who Naruto dedicated that song to," Hinata asked allowed.

"Who knows probably not any of us because we are teammates and everything," Kiba said Akamaru barking in his hood though the puppy was holding his ears to block out some of the sound. "Hinata where have you been anyways?"

"I have been shopping and sightseeing," Hinata said paying her full attention on Naruto.

"Oh I see so you are going to try and win Naruto over by showering him with gifts, or changing your appearance to get his attention," Kiba said teasing Hinata about her obvious crush. "Seriously I am going to spill the beans to Naruto so I can stop watching this soap opera,"

"Don't you dare Kiba," Hinata said killing intent noticeable even through the the crowds shout and the music.

The music went on for a full six hours ending at Midnight. Naruto was going through 10 encores and most of it was such heavy metal that his clone's hands were blistering. Both clones jumped off the stage disappearing in some smoke while Naruto got up from the drums putting his drumsticks taking his scarf off. Naruto cocked his hand back throwing it into the middle of the crowd, then Naruto disappeared.

(A/N: okay that was really hard to do, it was a filler but even so I don't think it was that good of a chapter, and it is really short. Please don't take this too critical about this chapter please. Next time the Chuunin exam.

Thanks to everybody that submitted music.

To ChibiAliChan Happy Birthday.)
