Yay for another chapter. Sorry for taking so long. Writers block is a pain... same with projects and tests... Anyways, hope you enjoy!

"Now!" A loud yell from Tsunade and the soft sound of the stretch of a rope was all that was heard. A young man with raven hair's body swung slightly from side to side as his neck broke silently. His tongue swelled up and thrunst it's way out of his mouth and his neck turned a horrendous purple.

"Sasuke." A soft whisper was all that Naruto would allow to grace his lips. Sasuke was now gone. Never to be brought back by Naruto. Not a single tear was shed for his best friend. No tears had been shed for any of his dead friends. Naruto felt strangely heavy like a great weight was pressing his to his knees. He would resist but the weight of his sins would soon drive him to curl up on the floor. This didn't happen often and it only did in the morning when he woke up only to realise once again the state of the village.

He still hadn't remembered what had happened. He didn't remember anything past his birthday with Sakura in the village when she bought him ramen. That was probably the only reason he was still alive and not executed like Sasuke. Oh how Naruto wished to just see Sakura again, Shikamaru, Choji, Ino, Tenten, and Neji. His friends he had apparently killed. Lee was still in hospital due to shock but he wasn't physically harmed.

80% of Konoha's population was wiped out. The remaining population were mostly the students from the academy and the villagers who had hid the moment the saw Sasuke coming and few ninja, including Kakashi, Shizune, and Iruka.

Thing had never looked so bad for the village.

Kyuubi had disappeared and not even Tsunade could explain that. She guessed that he took Naruto's memories and hid them away so that Naruto wouldn't be killed.

Now Naruto was to live with Kakashi so that he was under surveillance all day and all night. Naruto was going to miss Sasuke even if he had acted like a spoiled little prick.

Naruto didn't know when things would get better or if they ever would. It was hard to tell. His friends always turned away when he tried to look or speak with them. They gave him disgusted looks when they thought he wasn't looking. Ichiraku Ramen was destroyed and Naruto wasn't allowed anywhere without Kakashi. He couldn't even go to the bathroom without one of Kakashi'd clones around. Tsunade had forced a small device inside of his stomach to suppress any chakra that might leak out and if Naruto tried performing any jutsu, Tsunade would be alerted immediately. If the Kyuubi started coming back, Naruto would be knocked unconscious and paralyzed with a drug that was inserted into the device. Obviously, Naruto had no idea this device was inside him.

Naruto's arm was suddenly yanked and he whirled his head around to see Kakashi with his ever grim look plastered on his half masked face. Kakashi didn't let go of his arm while he was dragged through the crowd.

"Why are we heading this way?" Naruto wondered to himself as Kakashi leaded him toward the training grounds.

Naruto caught sight of Iruka by the weapons shelf and when Iruka caught his eye he shook his head and looked away. That stung Naruto a little bit.

"Naruto." Kakashi stopped in the middle of the training field and let go of Naruto's arm. He turned to face him and rested a hand on his shoulder. Naruto wondered what was going on. "Tsunade thinks it's for the best that you die." Naruto's eyes widened. He had thought he was allowed to live as long as the Kyuubi stayed dormant and his memories never returned.

"Eh?"

"That's why I brought you here away from everyone else and also why Iruka is here. He's here to make sure no one else interferes and tries to make this even more painful for you than it has to be. If it were up to me I'd let everyone have a go at you for everything you did…" Kakashi's voice trailed off and Naruto took a few steps back.

Kakashi was distracted by his own thought for the moment so Naruto took the chance and ran towards the forest.

It took a moment for Kakashi to notice the Naruto had ran. Iruka had noticed first and was directly behind Naruto. Naruto jumped high into the trees followed by Iruka, followed by Kakashi.

"No! I don't want to die yet! I have to become Hokage and become the best ninja. I can not die."

"Naruto! It's for the best. You've killed too many!" Kakashi yelled at him and threw a kunai. "You'll see your killing partner Sasuke again in hell!"

"Fuck off and leave me alone!" Naruto was on the verge of tears. It was worse than it had been in his childhood. Everyone, absolutely everyone hated him. His happy life was crushed because of something he had no memory of doing. He wanted to prove them all wrong. He wasn't a killer. No one trusted him now but he would win back their trust, one way or another.

Iruka didn't breath a word and a few times he could almost reach his adopted "son" but Naruto always pulled forward at the last moment. Kakashi and Iruka both knew that Naruto would soon run out of energy and try to rely on his chakra. At that point he would be incapacitated. They would be able to easily kill him. Iruka would make sure it was swift and without much pain while Kakashi would do the actual killing.

Just as thought Naruto was getting tired and tried to use chakra. He yelped and fell from the tree he was on.

"What the hell!" He caught himself and managed to land on his hands and knees.

"Caught you!" Kakashi landed on his back and tackled him, pushing him to the ground with his arm behind his back and a kunai to his throat. This reminded Naruto of when Kakashi had done this when he was testing them with the two bells.

"Careful Kakashi. We want this…"

"We? Iruka, you want it to be painless. I want it to be as painful as possible. This little brat, I trusted him, lots of people trusted him and he went and killed even more important people to me and to the village."

"Ahh!" Kakashi pulled Naruto's arm back further so it was now stretching to the point of almost breaking.

"Kakashi just end it!" Iruka pleaded.

"I will show no mercy to a monster!" Kakashi raged.

"I'm not a monster! Never again will I be called a monster!" Naruto felt a sudden hatred come out of nowhere. He recognized the presence. It was very weak but still there. Kyuubi was being blocked by something and was fighting to break it.

"Yes! Kyuubi, help me! I don't care that you've killed people and probably killed my friends and took my memories. Just help me get out of here. I don't want to die at the hands of my teacher!" Naruto helped by frantically tearing mentally at whatever was holding Kyuubi back. He could feel a resistance and he knew it was what held back his memories. He proded further and let out another scream as Kakashi broke him arm. Searing pain was enough to lunge himself through that barrier and memories flooded through him.

Please review! Who should die? Kakashi? Iruka? Both? Naruto? Everyone? Tell me what you think!
