Third POV
Everyone had over come their initial shock of the twins. Throughout the afternoon they chatted away trying to get to know the two better.
Both twins were wearily of strangers especially after being told not to trust anybody but Naruto and Pervy Sage.
A few days went by and everyone had come to terms with what had happened.
"Hot springs, hot spring. We take a bath!" Aki squealed as she ran around Naruto as they walked to the hot springs.
"She's so adorable." Hinata cooed as she walked alongside Naruto.
"I know right, Naruto you have the cutest kids and so polite." Ino smiled as she flipped her long pony slightly.
"Mama look Ino-sans hair it so pretty." Aki stopped and pulled on Naruto's sleeve and eagerly pointed at Ino who smirked triumply.
"I know, you say it all the time honey." Naruto replied as she looked down at Aki. "Yeah I know I do it so that you remember how you cut your pretty hair." Aki stated and skipped off.
"I haven't forgotten honey. You tell me everyday." Naruto sighed as they continued walking.
"Cute and polite but man they're full of attitude and spunk." Tenten sweat dropped making Naruto sigh and nod.
"Yeah, reminds me of a certain somebody." Naruto muttered the last part.
"What are you trying to say kit?! That I taught them how to be sassy and picky?" Kurama howled from inside his seal and in Naruto's mind.
' Yes and not only that, they sometimes act like wild foxes because they say you told them they're kits and should act like it.' Naruto sighed internally as she watched Aki skip around and twirl while walking down the street.
"Tch, you're just Jealous that you don't have your senses as heightened them or their keen primal instincts." He sneered as he stomped around in his cage and gloated.
'As if you know better than anyone that I'm not jealous, I'm quite proud actually but sometimes they're too fox like, they're just like you. They hold grudges, are sneaky and love to gloat about being fox like.' Naruto sighed in desperation. Kurama huffed and ignored her.
"Mama, mama, mama." Ryuu tugged on Naruto's pants and finally caught her attention. "Yes darling?" She looked down at him.
"You were making faces again. What did Urama say?" He asked knowing that Narutowas possibly talking to Kurama.
Ino scrunched her brows at Ryuu's comment, Urama, they had said that name multiple times now. Who was he and why was he so close to the twins?
Naruto gave him a soft smile. "We were talking about how you and your sister are kits and how you love to act like it." She responded.
Ryuu smiled widely showing a toothy grin, being that they had some much of Kurama's chakra influence them since pregnancy caused them to gain some fox like features. One of those were their sharp canine like teeth.
At a glance it wasn't as noticeable but alike Naruto with her nine tails chakra coat their teeth were slightly pointed.
"Yeah, of course we kits, because that's what we are. right mama, because Urama taught us how to be foxes." He smiled as he let go of Naruto and skipped around slightly as they arrived at thebath house.
Hinata, Ino and Tenten were confused at the conversation Ryuu and Naruto had. Fox like? Kurama? And his teeth, why were they sharp like that? If they were from Kibas clan it would make sense but they weren't.
"Why don't we go inside." Hinata stated and they all walked in the woman's side of the bath house. Aki quickly stripped and was hoping around the changing room in excitement. "Mama can we go now, can we ,can we?!" She asked hyperactivily.
Naruto nodded and both twins dashed off to shower so they could get in the hot pool waters.
"Hey Naruto, not to be rude or anything but why are their teeth so sharp?" Ino asked making Naruto stiffen slightly. They didn't know about Kurama...
Slowly Naruto began undressing and sighed. "Every village has a tailed beast, it's a way to show power. The tailed beast are kept in jinchuriki, human sacrifices that keep the beast locked away in a seal on their bodies." She began explaining as they all were undressing but carefully listening.
Naruto glanced around and made sure no outsider was listening as she paused slightly.
"I'm a jinchuriki, a second generation. Meaning one of my parents had the tailed beast sealed inside of them. They died, the nine tails was released and seeing as I was the only child nearby and available... an orphan per say. They sealed the nine tails inside me." Naruto stated glancing at their shocked expressions.
The last time the nine tails was released was nearly 18 years ago, when they were infants.
"When a female jinchuriki is pregnant the seal weakens due to the body sending chakra to the child instead of the seal to reinforce it. When the seal breaks we die nearly instantly due to the amount of chakra that disappears from our body that's grown accustomed to it." She stated as she grabbed a few towels.
"My birth was sabotaged, the nine tails was ripped out of my mother in hopes of destroying the leaf. These whisker marks come from the foxes influence on me inside my mother's womb. Their fox like attributes come from my own mutation of the nine tails chakra from my mother and their own exposure to the nine tails chakra in my womb." She finished off.
"So the nine tails is sealed inside of you?" Tenten gasped and Naruto slowly nodded making the seal visible.
"For the longest time it was thought the nine tails attacked the village willingly but over the years I've gotten to know him and he warned me of the man that murdered my mother and father. If word of my pregnancy got out, I'd be dead and the nine tails would have been manipulated again." She added.
"That's explain why you vanished. You didn't tell anybody, not me, not sakura or lady Tsunade." Hinata stated and Naruto nodded.
"Now that the twins were born the threat has been reduced, and I've become friends with the nine tails, his name is Kurama but the twins call him Urama and he helps train and protect them." Naruto stated with a small smile.
"But is he dangerous?" Ino asked and Naruto shook her head as they all headed inside to bathe.
"He loves them, he calls him his kits and to be frank spoils them way too much. They know that they can get away with almost anything if he intervenes. He also taught them how to be little smart mouths and if that weren't bad enough they're too sneaky." Naruto sweat dropped as they went to the showering area where the twins were scrubbing their bodies and hair.
"Its probably not that bad." Tenten stated trying to lift Naruto's spirits up.
"Mama, when is Urama gunna train us?" Aki asked hopping up and down. "Not now, you know how he hates walking or doing anything that involves physical activity." Naruto sighs as she sits down on a stool and began washing herself.
"Urama is really lazy, all he does is sleep and lay on things he finds to be warm or comfy." Aki pouted. "Yeah but that's because he's an old old fox." Ryuu states as he rinsed his hair.
"Tell those brats that I'm not lazy!!" Kurama snapped and howled.
Naruto rolled her eyes. "He says he's not lazy." She stated and the twins looked at each other and smirked.
Naruto, Hinata,Tenten and Ino sweat dropped as they watche'd the twins expressions.
"Well, if you aren't lazy then how come you haven't taken us hunting again and why aren't you playing with us." Aki huffed as Naruto began rinsing the girl trying to get the suds off.
"Hmph, tell them it's because we are in the village here. And that you won't let me out because you want to make a good impression." Kurama quickly stated trying to pin it all on naruto.
"He says that I won't let him out in the village. But you know he's just using me as scapegoat." Naruto chuckled and Aki snickered.
"Urama you a liar, because you could easily blend in. But, even then all you did was lay around in the house and make mama carry you and spoon feed you like a baby. You're a pampered liar. Right Ryuu?" Aki asked turning to her quiet brother as he nodded in agreement.
"Hmph, tell that brat to stop lying." Kurama huffed as he laid down to take a nap and ignore her.
"He said that you're the liar and he went to sleep to ignore you." Naruto relayed Kurama's answer and Aki sniffled.
"I'm not a liar." She sniffled and turned to Ino who was watching the turn of events.
"Right, Ino-nee. I don't lie, I'm a good kit, right?" She asked as she sniffled as she grabbed Ino's hand.
Ino didn't know what to say to Aki as Aki looked up aher with her dark eyes widen and tears threatening to spill out. "I-... of course you aren't Aki-chan." Ino managed to say.
How could Ino call her a liar and confirm what Kurama said? It wasn't possible especially with the puppy eyes she was giving her.
Aki suddenly stopped pouting and mischievously turned to Naruto. "See mama tell Kurama I'm no liar. I've got witness at my bidding, mwhahahahaha. " Aki laughed and Naruto sighed.
Ryuu rolled his eyes and hit his sister while Tenten, Hinata and Ino sweat dropped. Naruto did say the twins were manipulative and sneaky right?
"Don't start laughing and showing your true intentions, you're just proving Urama right you big dummy." Ryuu snapped as he went back to rinsing the suds off.
"Eh, Ryuu you're cruel." Aki sniffled rubbing the back of her head where he hit her with the pan he was using to rinse himself.
"Like I care, hmph." He grunted and Naruto pulled his ear slightly. "What have I told you about hitting your sister? You gotta stop hitting her everytime you think she does something dumb." Naruto scolded making Ryuu whimper.
"Mama that hurts, don't be cruel." Ryuu squealed at Naruto's actions. "Then stop being a meanie and grumpy pants. Now apologize." Naruto stated and let go.
Ryuu whimpered. "I'm sorry, that your so stupid- ow okay mama I'll stop it and be nice." Naruto quickly pinched him hearing him be mean to his sister.
"Well then do it without me having to tell you." Naruto frowned and Ryuu quickly pulled away.
"Sorry for hitting you. There I said it." Ryuu frowned and pouted and Naruto smiled. "See that wasn't so hard." She said as she kissed the top of his head.
"Do they fight often?" Hinata asked as she washed her long dark hair. Naruto nodded.
"They get along but they fight often. " she sighed as the twins finished off and scurried to the hot steaming baths.
"That's just how siblings tend to be, so nothing to worry about." Tenten smiled and everyone nodded in agreement.
Naruto POV
A few days had passed since our return and the twins seemed to be settling in nicely.
Of course they were still on their guard but they met all of rookie 9 and loved spending time with them.
They usually asked them for ninja and technique advice which everyone was willing to give. Even sakura became really close to them.
At first it was a little odd considering the crush she had had on Sasuke and finding out that we had kids together but we got over that stage quickly.
But after an explanation on my disappearance they understood why I had left. But to be honest I hadn't told them about akatsuki yet. I felt that they shouldn't need to worry about them and that maybe it would give them peace of mind not knowing.
"Naruto it's urgent! Lady Tsunade needs you in her office." Sakura jumped down next to me. I glanced down at the twins picking them up. "What happen?" I asked as we scurried off to grandma Tsunade's office.
"I only heard the minor details, but it has to do with Garra." She stated as we jumped over roots to the Hokage tower.
Ryuu and Aki held on tightly as we maneuvered through the town. I couldn't help but feel an uneasiness at the thought of the emergency having to do with garra.
"Hurry." She stated as we arrived and climbed up the stairs. I busted through the doors. Kakashi, stood there patiently.
"What happened?" I asked breathlessly. Tsunade frowned and entwined her fingers together.
"You know of the dangerous criminal organization named akatsuki. They sent assiliants to the sand village and attacked. Garra being the Kazekage and target protected the village before he fell at the hands of two S class nuke nins. Kankuro went after garra and reports have it that he was poisoned and might not survive." She glanced at the twins slightly as she spoke.
"I'm sending Team kakashi and Team Gai on a retrieval mission to the sand. Sakura you are to heal Kankuro, he has valuable information about the two nuke nin he fought. Naruto and Kakashi, Garras retrieval is of up most importance understood. This is an S class mission and failure is not an option... Understood!"
"Hai!" We all bowed. I turned and knelt down pulling the twins into a hug. "Listen to me. You will stay with grandma Tsunade and if anything happens to me, you stay with Sakura or Hinata is that understood." I stated firmly and they nodded.
I kissed their cheeks and pulled them close. " I love you and don't you ever forget that. If I don't come back home promise me you'll look after each other." I whisper and pulled away. "Let's go." I say standing up.
Both Kakashi and Sakura stood by the door frowning and waiting patiently. I took a deep breath and hurried toward them. "At the gate in five minutes." Kakashi sensei stated and we both gave a firm nod as we shunshined to get anything we might need for the mission from our homes.
I quickly packed weapons and medical supplies, if push came to shove and sakura wasn't there to heal Garra or whoever needed to be healed then that responsibility fell to me.
I grabbed a paint brush and ink in case I had to draw a seal. I looked around my apartment one last time. This was an S class mission and even I might be targeted.
The possibility that they will try and take me as well is high and if they somehow manage to... would I survive? I couldn't help but think about my own childhood and my life in the orphanage as a child and frowned.
I don't want that for my children. I want my family, I want to raise them and I want to achieve my dreams and save him. I can't die or be beaten now... so much is at stake.
I pushed away all those thought and took a deep breath as I left the house.
"Don't worry kit, all your training wasn't for nothing. We will beat those son of bitches that took your friend and be back home before you know it." Kurama stated.
I smiled, he was right I'm Naruto Uzumaki number one hyperactive unpredictable knuckle head ninja. Mother of two adorable children, daughter of the fourth Hokage and future Hokage. No one was going to stop me.
I quickly moved through the village making it to the gates.
"We are all here." Kakashi grumbled as sakura came to view as well.
"We have to hurry up and go." I say as we were about to leave when I noticed someone at the gate.
"Naruto is that you?" Temari stated as she came to view. I frowned, if she was here then she probably doesn't know about ... Garra.
"Yeah, it's me." I say with a swift nod. "Wow it's been years, you suddenly vanish and now you're back. I'm sure garra will be glad when he hears you returned." She smiled as she noticed that we were geared up.
"On your way out to a mission already?" She asked as kakashi, sakura and I glanced at each other.
"Yeah, we are heading to Suna on a emergency mission... there was an attack yesterday and..." I notice her eyes widen at what I was saying.
"Two nuke nins from a criminal organization kidnapped.. Garra." I finished off making her gasp.
"Wait, garra has been... I'm coming with you." She quickly stated her eyes gleaming with anger and determination but still holding a sense of worry.
I nod. "That would be great, besides you know the way better than us so you could be of alot of help. The faster we get there the greater chances of rescuing him." I say nodding.
"I have everything I need besides, back in Suna is where I live so anything I leave behind here won't matter. Let's go... before they hurt my little brother." She stated and we all headed off.
I was angry, why Garra? Hadn't he suffered enough in his childhood? Hadn't we suffered enough? As jinchuriki we are outcasted and isolated till we can prove our worth and even then it still feels like the ones we trust will turn us down.
Personally I have had it easy, a few mishaps and neglect but never an assassination attempt like he had. And if there was an attempt on my life the anbu that took care of me protected me from them.
But not him, he didn't have that kind of protection. He suffered so much and in the end still found the path way to light.
I glanced at temari as tears trickled down her face. I know Kankuro and her feel some guilt over her brothers isolation. I know that now days they want to compensate for their actions and how they treated them but in a sense they were children and alike everyone else that stood in Garra's way they were afraid.
But what makes my blood boil is them. Akatsuki and everyone who tries to use us or the tailed beast as weapons.
Why do they hunt us down? Why do they continue to torment us? Why?
"Naruto you're too aggitated. We should keep a steady pace so we have enough energy to fight." Sakura stated making me realize how fast I was moving.
"Gomen sakura. It's just, why do we always have to be targeted?" I snapped as I balled my fist up.
"We are isolated, persecuted, and discriminated. Even if I hadn't wanted to be a ninja, I would've been forced by the village and council. As jinchuriki we are forced to be come ninja weapons." I hissed as I ranted.
"All my life I've been hated. I'm sure most villagers found relief and peace when I left. Garra has too and anyone who's burdened with a tailed beast suffer. And it's not the tailed beast that torture us. Sometimes they're kind and help us or are indifferent to our well being but it's the people around us. The ones we are meant to trust that hurt us." I added as I sped up.
"So why, why do we have to keep suffering. Garra was finally being accepted finally being happy and because of their selfishness he's once again forced into horrible conditions."I snapped.
"The tailed beast, you mean Kurama right?" Sakura asked meekly and I nodded.
"Kurama is wonderful, he has been there for me even if not emotionally but has protected me from injuries and never really tried to break me. He was kind to me even with his grumpy and mean attitude. I got dealt a bad hand and I'm okay with it but why can't we never get a break." I say.
"You're a jinchuriki as well?" Temari asked and I nodded. "Then you understand garra well. And I know you're right. You guys can never seem to get a rest. Everyone who doesn't understand hates you and despises you. The way they treat you are like weapons that can be changed and disposed of at a moment's notice and people fear you." Temari stated.
"Before meeting you, Kankuro and I were terrified of garra. All the things that he'd done and what was said about him and how we were told to ignore him and outcast him. We didn't think twice about it. Now days I'm closer to my little brother and I understand the error of our ways, you guys are humans and even the tailed beast have emotions." Temari stated.
I glanced back at her and nodded. "This time I'll make sure that the bastards that hurt my little brothers pay." She hissed.
Arriving at the gate we were permitted entry easily due to Temari and were quickly taken to the hospital where Kankuro was.
We hurried through the halls and to where Kankuro was being held.
Temari opened the door and saw her little brother laying on the hospital bed. "Kankuro!" She gasped hurrying to his side.
An old woman looked up her eyes widening and narrowing as she spotted kakashi. It didn't take long or much for her to attack.
Strings alike Kankuro's puppet strings appeared at her finger tips and held a kunai on her other hand.
"White Fang how dare you appear here in suna, I'll make you pay for what you did to my daughter and her husband." She hissed nearly reaching him as I pulled out a kunai of my own and blocked her kunai and held her small frail wrist in my hand.
"What the hell old hag. Why are you attacking Kakashi-sensei?" I snapped glaring at her. Didn't she know we were allies?
"Move brat, this is old debt that has to be settled." The woman snapped a crazy look in her eyes.
"Sister, calm down. Remember the white Fang has been dead for a few decades and this young man cannot possibly be Sakumo Hatake." Another old man stated placing a hand on the crazed woman. As he said this a spark of recognition lit up in her eyes.
She let her tense muscles relax slightly and pulled away. I didn't hold on to her and just merely let go.
"Huh, oh you're right. Haha I was just testing you lot." She laughed it off and pulled away. "We are team seven. We were sent by konoha to help rescue Kazekage Garra." Sakura stated.
"I'm Naruto Uzumaki, this is Kakashi Hatake and Sakura Haruno." I say presenting us by name. The old woman snickered and looked away. "I don't care about the names of low ranking ninja." She snapped glancing back at Kankuro.
Sakura stepped up. "Let me take a look at him." She stated and the old woman snickered. "There's no use. We have our best medical ninja looking at him since he was brought in and there's no cure." She stated and Sakura frowned.
"I've trained under Lady Hokage Tsunade Senju. I'm known to be one of the most skilled medical ninjas in our village. I was sent here to find a cure for Kankuro as a side mission and as my lady ordered me failure is not an option." Sakura stated as she passed by the old woman.
"Tsunade Senju, the renowned medical ninja of the leaf. That damn brat was always finding cures for my poisons back in the second shinobi war." The old woman muttered.
Without asking further questions sakura started to work. "I need a bucket of water, a pen and notebook and lots of towels. I also need you to start an IV when I finish extracting the poison." Sakura ordered.
"We need details about the abduction. Who did it and any Intel gained throughout the battle." I stated with a frown. "Two nuke nin. One was Deidara from the hidden stone village, known for his clay bombs but the other... We didn't get to see his abilities." One of the jonin stated.
I nodded. "So he must be long distance kind of user and the other is unknown." I muttered glancing at Kakashi.
"I'm mid range and close range, you and Sakura are close range fighters. You're known for your beserkness, unpredictability and chakra amount. Sakura for her medical skills and strength and Team Gai has three taijutsu masters , two being iron fist the other gentle fist and their long range fighter tenten." Kakashi evaluates.
"And those other teammates that are coming to support, are they strong?" The old woman asks while kakashi nods.
"Team Gai consists of mainly jonin level ninjas that specialize in different areas. Sakura is a elite jonin now and I've been one for a long while now, Naruto here might still be chunin rank but she studied under Jiraya the toad sage for a few years and recently returned from a training trip." Kakashi confirms and she looked at him suspiciously.
"Hmph." She grunted as she turned away and watched sakura extract the poison. "Don't dump out the poison in the bucket, I'm going to analyze it for the antidote." She stated as she was finishing up with kankuro.
Sakura managed to make the antidote and we were talking to Kankuro about the second man.
"Sasori of the red sand." Kankuro coughed out the name and the old woman's eyes widen.
"Lady Chiyo?" Temari asked concerned. "Are you sure that's the name he gave you." She asked sternly and Kankuro nodded.
"He did. And he knew all of the functions of my puppets, compared to him I was nothing." He stated and Chiyo looked down.
"Anything else?" I asked and he nodded as he brought out the puppet hand. "I managed to get a scrap of his clothing to follow the scent.
"Tch, as expected of a sand shinobi even on a failed mission never coming back empty handed." Kakashi grumbled and Chiyo smirked.
"I guess we will have to set out to find Garra. And I have to pay a little visit to my grandchild." She stated.
"Do you want to use pakkun or do you want me to track him down?" I asked and kakashi sweat dropped. "Don't separate from Kurama at any moment, that could cause trouble in the long run. And pakkun can handle it." Kakashi stated and I nodded.
Kakashi did the handsigns making pakkun appear and sniff the clothing.
"This is the antidote, Kankuro you need to rest and recover. Is that understood." Sakura stated as she injected the antidote in the IV.
"But my brother." He coughed out. "Don't worry, we will bring him back. The sand suffered to many casualties and need to reinstate the borders. You need to stay here, get better and strengthen the village." Sakura stated and Kankuro frowned.
"I won't let him suffer anymore, I promise." I stated as left the room getting ready to leave.
"I'm coming too. I have unfinished business with Sasori." Lady Chiyo stated.
We left the sand village and were following Sasori and Deidara's tracks. I used all my sensing abilities as we moved.
"Team Gai is up ahead." I stated as we moved to a more wooded area.
"Sensor right?" Chiyo asked and I nodded. "As an Uzumaki, I'm known to be a sensor." I stated with a nod.
I could feel Kurama move in unease.
"Somethings wrong kit" he grumbled .
"We have to hurry." I say as I start picking up my speed. "Why, what is it Naruto?" Sakura asked.
"Kurama says something isn't right." I stated as we caught sight of Team Gai.
"Naruto! I see you too are on this dangerous S ranked mission!" Lee called out as they joined us.
We stopped completely. "Yeah, I am. But here's the recent development. This here is an elder of the Sand her name is Chiyo and she's a puppet master. Deidara a nuke ninja from the stone can cause explosions from his clay and Sasori us a puppet master and other than that he is know for his deadly poisons." I stated and they nodded.
"Is that all the new development?" Tenten asked and I nodded.
"Alright, let's continue onward." Lee stated as we started moving forward again. "Naruto isn't it dangerous for you too. The akatsuki are known to be after Jinchuriki and they could try to capture you as well?" Neji asked.
"Jinchuriki?" Lady Chiyo turned to me in realization. "The village sent their jinchuriki to rescue ours." She muttered.
"It is dangerous. But I have the twins to go back to so no matter what I must save garra and make it back home, my children need me." I say as we moved quickly.
"A mother at such a young age?" Chiyo asked and I couldn't help but grimance. "Yeah, but I don't regret having them. I'm the nine tails jinchuriki and an orphan. To have my own family is like a gift and something I hold very near and dear to me." I say to her and she nods.
"Judging by the way you say it, you must've not led a good infancy like most Jinchuriki." Chiyo stated letting the subject go.
We arrived at a giant rock and neji activated his byakugan. "Theirs a five Pentagon barrior."he stated as he looked around.
"Hmm, five Pentagon barrior made with seals?" I asked and he nodded. "Then all seals must be removed at the same time other wise we can't get through." I stated .
Gai smirked. "Leave that to my team, neji locate the barriors and tell us the exact location. We have konohas latest equipment of communication. With this we will be able to stay in touch even in long distances. When we remove the barrior you go in, deal?" He stated and we nodded as they spread out.
"Sakura get ready." I stated as we waited for their signal.
The moment the barrior was down sakura punched the boulder that was in the way and the cave was finally in full view.
"Well well looks like we have been found. "A blonde haired man smirked as he sat on top of garra.
"Tch, such an annoyance." The one we assumed to be Sasori smirked.
My body froze when I saw Garras motionless body on the floor. "What did you do?!" I snapped as I glared at them.
"We were told the guy that reacted and demanded first was our jinchuriki, never did we expect it be a woman." Deidara smirked and I couldn't help but hiss.
"Kit control your emotions, and goddamnit stop trying to take my chakra! You're too angry to wield it right and we still haven't mastered mixing our chakra yet!" Kurama snapped.
'But Kurama, garra they've...' I bit my lip at the sight. "I know but getting agitated won't help.'
'I know..' I muttered internally.
"Want him back?" Deidara smirked as he stood up and kicked garra. "C'mon take him." He teased and I became tense. "You damn bastard!" I snapped.
"We will take on Sassori, you two go after deidara." Sakura stated as deidara quickly picked up garra and began making his escape.
We chased after him. He kept using his bombs to attack us. "Kakashi do you have a fire style justu?" I asked and he nodded.
"Yeah why?" He asked. "Because I have a strong windstyle that could amplify it. But what if the clay bird explodes." I grumble the last part.
"Try the windstyle and see if you can knock him down." Kakashi stated and I nodded.
"Great wind Break through!" I yelled making the signs. It nearly knocked him over but I could easily tell he was using chakra to stick on.
We persude him for a while dodging his attacks. "Naruto distract him I think I have a technique but it requires massive amounts of chakra." Kakashi stated and I nodded.
We dodged and I kept throwing attacks back at him trying to keep his attention on me.
"Okay we need a major distraction and to keep him still. " Kakashi stated with a grunt. "Throw me up sensei, I think I have an idea as well." I stated as he sped up. He entwined both hands and got ready to launch me forward and I quickly got the gist.
I ran fast towards him using his hands as a spring board and he threw me up and I jumped at the same time.
Kurama and I hadn't mastered mixing our chakras but I could still use the demon cloak.
With a chakra claw I managed to damage the clay birds wing and kakashi made a jutsu that ripped his arm off.
I managed to land and grab garra. I let my clones attack deidara. But quickly realized he was a clone all along.
"He's still here, somewhere." Kakashi stated and I nodded as i pulled a kunai out and listened.
I couldn't feel him near by but I could tell he fled.
"He's gone." I mutter and carried garras cold limp body to a open field.
"Naruto!" I turned to see sakura helping lady Chiyo walk. "Sakura, old lady!" I gasped as they settled infront of us. "He's... " I looked down holding back tears. "I have a jutsu." The old lady muttered as she placed her hands on garras chest.
She began emitting a baby blue chakra and began coughing.
"Here let me help. " I say as I placed my hands over hers and began pouring chakra.
Garra's face started coming back to color and warmth began to return to his skin.
" All my life, I've done horrible things. I guess this is a way to atone for all of my sins." The old lady smiled as she closed her eyes and fell limp.
"Lady Chiyo." I stammered out tears swelling in my eyes as Garra began breathing once more.
"What happen?" He mumbled as the sand shinobi began arriving.
"Garra!" I pulled him into a hug.
"Naruto?" He asked confused and I nodded. "Yeah it's me, ttebayo." I smiled and Temari and Kankuro came to view.
"Garra!" She engulfed him in a hug.
"The Kazekage lives!" The sand shinobi began cheering.
I couldn't help but smile.
We escorted Garra back to the Suna village and I began telling him about my adventures and what happened and why I left.
He also told me that he heard rumors about my underground medical clinic for shinobi in the land of iron.
After a few hours Kakashi, Sakura and I began returning home.
Of course they had to stop me from running back to the village in one day considering I wanted to get back and see the twins already.
It took about two days to return to the village and we quickly headed to the Hokage tower.
"I'm home with a completed mission!" I yelled as I waltzed in.
"MAMA, TEA!" the twins squealed and I smirked as I noticed they used one of the many code words.
"Tea kettles with worms!" I laughed and their eyes went wide as they tackled me in a hug. "Mama you're back, we were scared. When you said that if you didn't come back we would stay with someone." Ryuu began to cry and snott dripped out of his nose as he nuzzled against me.
"MAMA mama I missed you, you didn't come back in so long we were scared!" Aki cried and held onto me like her life depended on it. I pulled them close.
I couldn't help but hold back my tears. This is the longest I've ever been away from them, of course they were scared.
"Of course I came back. It was a very dangerous mission but everytime the going got rough I thought about you two and how I had to make it back home." I say as I ruffled their hair. I noticed Aki wearing low pig tails and smiled.
"So what did you do while I was gone?" I asked and they smiled.
"We stayed with Tsunade baa-chan , she is so nice she let me braid her hair and make her flower crowns like the ones you taught me mama." Aki smiled as she wiped her tears.
"I hope they didn't misbehave?" I say as I looked at Tsunade.
"Not much, but they like to fight alot and they are already pretty advanced in their ninja skills." She stated and I smiled. "Yeah. Did they attack anyone?" I asked sheepishly and she nodded.
"Jiraya came by and they had a field day with him since he forgot the magic words." Tsunade chuckled. "And finding them took ages." She added.
"Well outside of the village they had to have some sort of training." I say and she nodded.
"You sure you don't want them in the ninja academy? They could easily blend in with the 5-6 year olds." She stated and I sighed.
"I don't want them to have to give up their childhood just yet. But it seems with what happened to garra they need to get stronger. I'd hate for them to become hostages." I mutter as I wipe the tears from their cheeks.
"The next semester starts next month, just think about it." Tsunade stated and I nodded.
"I will." I say. "Naruto we have to turn in our mission report." Kakashi stated and I nodded. "You two wait out here. " I say making them stand outside of the Hokage office.
Ryuu POV
"Aki stop trying to listen." I grumbled pulling her away from the door making her groan.
"Ryuu stop it, I do what I want." Aki whispered back in annoyance as she pressed her ear on the door.
"What are they saying." I whisper and she smirks. "Something about a kase-mage and atasuki and uh kidnap." She mumbled back and I rolled my eyes.
"Let me hear, you probably didn't even say those names right." I grumble as I place my ear on the door.
"What are you doing." I look over my shoulder and turned to see a scary old man with bandages glare at us he held Aki by the shoulder and she screeched.
"Ahhhh!" She tried to pull away but he wouldn't let her. I quickly reacted and kicked his wrist making him let go. Aki ducked down and kicked his ankles making him lose balance.
"Run Ryuu!" She squealed as she ran up the wall and kicked the old man across the face before taking my hand and running off.
There were two other old people standing by watching us wide eyed and we split up both concentrating chakra to our feet and escaping through the sides of the hall.
"Aki, Ryuu!" I heard mama yell as the door slammed open. I glanced back to see mama see us before we turned to the next hall.
"Hurry Ryuu the creepy old man will get us!" She gasped as we got lost quickly.
"Ryuu, Aki!" I heard mama yell and we came to a stop and quickly henged into things that were in the hall.
Mama showed up and looked around. "Turtles are purple with blue underwear."
Aki broke her henge and pounced on mama. "The old man grabbed me mama, he scared me!" She cried as she hugged her.
I quickly let my henge go and pounced on her and sniffled as I nuzzled against her. "There there, I think you scared the council member more than he scared you." She stated as she picked us up.
"Who was he mama?" I asked and She sighed. "That was Lord Danzo, one of the council members."
Mama brought us to baa-chans office and sat us down. She introduced us to the old scary people. I hid behind Aki playing with the symbol on the back of her dress. It was red and white and looked like a fan. Mama had stitched it on all of our clothes and said it meant the we were uchiha's.
" Hmph so Sasuke Uchiha already fathered two." The man with a bandage on his face stated.
"Yes they are Uchiha's, but unlike Sasuke or his older brother I want to make sure that they aren't forced to not have a childhood. And I'd like you to refrain from speaking about Sasuke so freely or the rest of the Uchiha. I've personally only told them very little and don't want too much to be revealed before hand." Mama stated and I frowned. She didn't want them telling us about dad... But why?
"Mama, does papa have a brother too?" Aki asked and I looked up waiting for her answer.
"Yes, but your father doesn't like to talk about it." Mama says. I looked over at Aki and she looked at me and shrugged.
"Anyway finish your mission report and you three tell me why you're here." Baa chan stated...
I glanced up at the old man who was smirking...
Danzo scares me ...
Finally I update, sorry for the long wait hope you like it.
