"You can do better than that!" Kakashi gloated as Naruto sprang at him and missed. So far Kakashi had been toying with the boy and had landed a few good blows on him, but Naruto had yet to hit him back.
No I can't!!!!! Naruto thought viciously. The Nine-Tailed Fox can!!!!
He couldn't use the Fox's Chakra. If he did, the results could be disastrous. And as angry as Kakashi was making him, he didn't want to hurt the Sensei.
"People are watching Naruto!" Kakashi's voiced hissed in his ear. "Are you going to let them see you get beat?" Naruto turned quickly but Kakashi was already gone.
"He's fucking with him." Sasuke said quietly to Neji, watching Naruto pause and look around desperately for Kakashi. He seemed to be shaking pretty bad. Sakura had finally woken up and was watching the fight in confusion.
"You're not gonna ever amount to anything." Kakashi said, loud enough for everyone to hear as he suddenly seemed to appear in front of Naruto and punched him hard in the stomach. It was by far the hardest punch yet and Naruto went flying. He landed on unsure feet.
Are you just gonna take this!?! A loud, snarling voice said in Naruto's head. He's embarrassing you, and making fun of you!! Let me help you!
"No!!" Naruto snapped out loud, shaking his head and charging Kakashi once again. It was useless, and he knew it. Kakashi easily sent him flying into the dirt.
"Why is he letting Kakashi humiliate him like that?" Neji hissed in annoyance. He couldn't understand Naruto at all. All he knew was that if he had Naruto's power he wouldn't hesitate to use it. Especially not if someone was making a fool out of him.
Sasuke shook his head. He had an idea why Naruto was holding back. Or rather he had heard from Naruto why he was holding back, but he didn't share this with Neji.
Naruto shakily pushed himself up off the ground, only to have his feet kicked back out from under him.
"Get up!" Kakashi demanded. "Or are you really this weak!?!"
Don't let him talk to you like that!!!!"You're a disappointment."
You know you can beat his smirking ass to the ground!!! Just do it!!!"SHUT UP!!!!!" Naruto screamed, jumping to his feet and grabbing handfuls of his hair. He could feel the huge amounts of chakra the fox was offering, the insane amount that he could have in an instant. All he had to do was reach out and take it.
Or he didn't even have to do that. The fox was giving it to him, shoving it into his hands.
Kakashi paused when Naruto screamed at him to shut up. Or he thought the blonde was screaming at him. Maybe he went to far.
Sasuke was watching with narrowed eyes. He knew that Naruto was having some sort of mental struggle, and he was pretty sure he knew what was coming. "Oh shit." He said simply, and Neji and Lee looked glanced at him. But he didn't take his eyes off of the fight or off of Naruto.
Kakashi was about to apologize to Naruto. He looked upset. Well at least that's what Kakashi deducted from his body language. He couldn't see his face at that angle.
Naruto couldn't hold out any longer. He let the chakra flow through his body, as well as huge waves of anger and a strong bloodlust that didn't belong to him.
Before Kakashi could make another move, Naruto sprung at him, his fist coming within an inch of the sensei's face before he disappeared and reappeared on Kakashi's left side, landing a blow on Kakashi's jaw. He then appeared behind Kakashi and kicked him hard through the air.
The only thought that could go through Kakashi's head was FUCK!!!
Sasuke was the only one who didn't have a look of utter surprise on his face upon seeing Naruto kick and punch Kakashi all around the training ground like a pinball. He suppressed a shiver at the thought that just two days before he had been the human pinball.
"That's incredible!" Gai nearly screamed. Both Sakura and Tenten were gasping at regular intervals, sounding very much like leaking tires. Neji, while showing initial signs of shock, had gained his composure, but Lee was near fainting.
"Such speed, such strength! And here I thought Naruto was simply another shinobi! He is a true genius!!!" There were tears going down Lee's face. "And he has always been so underestimated!!"
But no one was paying any attention to Lee as Naruto sprung high into the air with a very shocked Kakashi. No one really saw how, but Kakashi was driven into the ground face first, and Naruto landed next to him.
At first, no one moved. No one spoke.
"That was…" Gai's eyes widened, "…AMAZING!!!" He pranced over to where Naruto was standing. "You, Uzumaki, are my new rival- UUMPH!!!" His speech was cut short as Naruto kicked him hard in the stomach and sent him flying. He hit a tree with a sickening thump.
Naruto was shaking again. His hands once again grabbed handfuls of his hair as he sank to his knees.
You know you don't want to stop!!! There are plenty more people around. Just take your anger out on them!!! Naruto pulled harder on his hair, and the voice retreated to the back of his mind, along with the chakra. His vision cleared, and he saw Kakashi, lying face down in the dirt right in front of him.
What had he done?
Everyone jumped when Naruto scrambled back to his feet, nearly falling back over. He shot a scared look at everyone before he darted away from the training ground.
