Chapter 20: Fake Kidnapping
"Naruto? Riko? Lala? Who is she?" Mikan asked when the group entered in the house. The one the young girl is referring is Golden Darkness, now known as Yami.
Naruto grinned and rub the back of his head. "Mikan, this is Yami. She was the person who was trying to kill me." Mikan blinked at what Naruto just told her, her brain quickly catching up to what he had just said.
"Okay….and why are you in the same area together, not trying to kill each other?"
"Call it a temporary truce." Naruto suggested. "She found out that employer lied to her about me, and she wasn't happy about that. After I blasted him into space, we talked and Yami said she will not abandon any mission she takes on, having her stuck on Earth until she kills me."
Lala then spoke up. "And Naruto offered to let her stay with us!" She informed Mikan brightly. "Now we got a new friend with us!" Mikan blinked a few more times, comprehending what Naruto and Lala told them.
After a moment, she smiled and decided not to question the bizarreness of the whole thing. "Okay then. Welcome to the Yuuki Household Yam-chan." Riko's jaws literally dropped at this. How on earth does Mikan accept this bizarre scenarios?!
Yami nodded to her in gratitude as Naruto called out to Gaara. "Hey Gaara, you heard all of that?" The red headed Kazekage walk to the front door and nodded to Naruto.
"Golden Darkness, know this." Gaara spoke, his eyes directing at Yami. "If you attack Naruto while I'm around, I will assist him in anyway I can. I will not stand by as you try to kill my friend." The two of them stare at each other's calm, unflinching eyes, before Yami nodded in acceptance.
"I can accept that." Yami spoke to him. "But if you defend Uzumaki, I will have to incapacitate you or kill you."
"I will take the risk to protect my friend." Gaara replied back. The group is silent for a moment before Naruto spoke up.
"Okay, so how about we go eat?" Naruto suggested. "The whole fight made me hungrier than usual."
(Half a Week Later)
As the week pass, Gaara is gradually getting his strength back. When it was end of the week long stay, Gaara is ready to go back home. Once Temari, who sent a message that she'll be coming to Japan soon, and her team gets here, Gaara will go back to the Sand Village.
Meanwhile, Yami is adjusting to Earth easily, or at least, adjusting to the Yuuki household. She tried several earthly foods during the week, but her favorite are taiyakis. Mikan and Lala is also getting along with her well, the former sharing a room with Yami. With Riko, however, she treats her like an older sister scolding the younger one whenever her clumsiness does something perverted. Mainly a hit to the head with a small hair fist.
She hasn't went to school with Naruto, Lala, and Riko, preferring to stay at home for now. It partly because she heard about the groping duo, Risa and Mio, and want to avoid them. She may can fend off perverted men with ease, and make sure they regret trying to target her, but perverted women is another thing for her entirely.
Right now, Naruto and Riko are working on the flowers at the school. It was after school, and the two decided to take care of the flowers, since they haven't been taking care of for a while.
Riko glimpsed at Naruto as they are doing this. 'It's been several days since we've done this together.' Riko thought to herself. 'It's probably because of the craziness that's been happening. Still, I'm glad we had time to do this now.'
A few minutes later, the two got up and took a look at their handiwork. "There, the plants are nice and healthy." Naruto stated, folding his arms behind his head. Riko nodded in agreement.
"You're working on the plants again you two?" The blonde and orange-head turned to see that it was Haruna that was speaking to them.
Naruto nodded. "Yep. It's been awhile since Riko-chan and I worked on the garden here."
"So we decided to work on it before we went home." Riko finished for Naruto. Haruna smile at the two. Both of her friends are very kind people. Makes her glad that she knows them, and glad that Riko is her best friend.
"So Haruna, want to walk home with us for today?" Haruna nodded, wanting to spend time with the two and the three then walked home, talking about what's been happening in their lives.
As they walked, they didn't notice Saki, Rin, and Aya watching them. Saki crossed her arms and frowned as she kept her gaze at Naruto. "Nothing is working for the past years." Saki stated to her friend, frustrated. "I've tried acting different roles, wearing different outfits, and many scenarios to get his attention. Why won't he notice me? How is he different from other guys?"
Aya shifted nervously while Rin sighed. A part of Rin wanted Saki to just give up on Naruto, but not because of her feelings for the male blonde. It's because Naruto won't fall for Saki just because she's pretty. She knows Naruto, and Naruto will care for people based on their hearts, not their looks.
"How about a pretend kidnapping attempt?" Saki, Rin, and Aya turn to see a fellow Sainan High School girl. "You can hire some people to set up a pretend kidnapping, and then Naruto can swoop down, and save the day."
Saki actually thought about the idea given to her. Rin, however, narrowed her eyes at the girl. "Why are you helping us?" Rin asked her, keeping her hands near her kendo sword. "It's no secret that almost every girl in Sainan High desires Naruto. Why would you help a potential rival?"
The girl raise her hands up. "Don't get me wrong, I like Naruto as much anyone." The girl began. "But I know I have no chance of getting him. I just thinking the Queen of Sainan High would have the best chance of getting Naruto." At that, Saki's ego got brushed heavily and the blonde girl smirked heavily.
"Well, if you're sure this idea will work, then I will try it out." Saki said. The girl then said goodbye and left, leaving the three girls to themselves. "Soon, Naruto, you will fall into my hand just like every other boy here. Mark my words!"
Rin and Aya look at each other before sighing. They are unsure about this idea, but it doesn't look like Saki is gonna change her mind anytime soon. They'll have to make sure nothing bad happens.
(In an Alley)
"You tricked her good, Sasori my man." A blonde haired man said. He's wearing a black cloak with red clouds on it, and a bang is over one of his eyes. "How did you made that puppet look so realistic anyway?"
"I have my ways." The man known as Sasori said. Like his partner, he's also wearing the same uniform, as well as cloth over his mouth.
A few days after the one tailed jinchuuriki disappeared, Zetsu reported to the Akatsuki that he's located outside the Elemental Nation, in a place called Japan. Their leader ordered them to go there, and try to capture at least one of them. So after gaining info, they found a suitable hostage.
Sasori used one of his puppets in his arsenal, and disguise into a girl in that high school. Once the idea is planted in the girl's head firmly, they will be their for her to hire. "Now, we need more people on our side." Sasori stated. "In order to get Gaara of the Sand and Naruto Uzumaki."
"Yes, but how though?" Deidara asked, leaning on the wall. "It would take a while for any of our comrades to come here, and assist. And none of the people here are as strong as we are. We'll need some pretty strong individual to help us in our endeavors."
"Sorry to interrupt, but did you say that you wanted to get rid of Naruto Uzumaki?"
The two rogue shinobis turn around to see three men behind them. One of them have a white trench coat on, with a white hat and glasses, while the two behind him are wearing some type of combat suit. All of them are very pale.
Deidara answered. "Well, we're gonna capture him then get rid of him. Why do you want to know?" He put his hands in his pockets, ready to throw some detonating clay.
The man smirk at him. "Cause we might have the same goals. My name is Jen. You see, this Naruto is engaged to someone my employers want, and I need him gone. We may benefit by working together."
"Interesting proposal." Sasori spoke up, his face betraying nothing. "Why don't tell us everything we need to know?"
(Yuuki Household)
Once Riko and Naruto got back, after giving their good-byes to Haruna, they waited with the others for Temari and her team. Mikan and Naruto are cooking, Yami and Gaara are playing a game of shogi, with Lala waiting for her turn, and Riko is finishing up the homework she got from school.
"Checkmate." Yami stated, taking Gaara's king. The redhead doesn't look surprise, since Yami was being a formidable opponent.
"Good job Golden Darkness." Gaara said, nodding to her. Despite the fact she's targeting Naruto, the two of them manage to get along, having similar personalities. "It seems you have the intelligence with your skills."
"Of course. I can't just rely on my skills alone." Yami replied back. She then turn to Lala. "Do you want to play now princess?" Lala nodded eagerly, setting up the game.
"I'm gonna beat you in this game Yami-chan." As the two started playing, a knock was heard on the door. Riko got up and went to see who it is, but as she opened it, three figures rushed into the house, causing Riko to spin around fast before slowly stopping, swirls in her eyes.
"Why me….." She moaned right before fainting from dizziness.
Naruto went in the living when he heard several people, tense and ready to fight, but relaxed when she saw Temari hugging the life out of Gaara, along with two other girls standing over the Kazekage in great concern, fussing over the young leader.
"Calm down Temari. Matsuri. Yukata. I'm alright." Gaara said to them, pushing Temari so they can look at each other face to face. "No need to keep worrying."
Temari smile apologetically at Gaara. "I'm sorry Gaara. It just, we've been so worried ever since you disappeared."
"Yeah Lord Kazekage." Matsuri decided to speak up. "The villagers wanted to look for you ASAP when you suddenly disappeared. Everyone was in a panic at what happened."
"Well I apologize for making you all worry." Gaara said, smiling back at his sister. His smile also made Matsuri blush and looked away, making Naruto smirk in the background. Look like someone got a crush on the Kazekage. "But I'm alright and healed now. You can think Naruto for that."
Temari look up to see Naruto leaning on the wall of living room. Without any warning, she rush up to him and wrapped her arms around. "Thank you." She told him, gratitude written in her voice. "You saved my brother once again."
Naruto smiled and hugged her back. "No problem Temari. I wouldn't hesitate to do it again." The two blondes then ended the hug. "It was probably a long trip. Why don't you guys stay here and eat dinner with us?" Matsuri and Yukata look hopeful at that, but Temari was quick to shake her head.
"You already done enough for us already." Temari protested. "I wouldn't to take-"
"Don't worry Temari." Naruto interrupted, walking to the kitchen to help get the food. "We made enough for everyone. Besides, Gaara asked me to make something for you guys once you got here."
Temari look at his brother, a bit surprised by this. "I figure you and your team would get hungry once you got here." Gaara explained to her sister. "And I've tried Naruto's and Mikan's cooking. You should have a taste as well."
The last sentence was reinforced when Mikan and Naruto broughts plates of fried chicken with gravy over it, rice, and salad. And for dessert, Naruto decided to make a vanilla cake with several cherries on top.
Matsuri and Yakata have stars in their eyes at the site of the food, as well as the smell, while Temari her own mouth water a little. She sighed. "Fine. We can stay a little longer for dinner. Just let me get Makoshi in here. He's outside, watching for any suspicious activities."
"Yay!" The two sand kunoichis cheered before bowing to their sensei and Kazekage. "Thank you Temari-sensei! Lord Kazekage!"
Gaara smile at them in amusement, Temari sighed in exasperation, and Naruto chuckled at their reaction. He wonder if all genin act this way whenever they have a long mission.
(With Saki)
It took a little while, but Saki finally found a group of people who will help do the pretend kidnapping. It's a group of five men, all of them looking like tough people.
The plan is simple. She will be strapped into a chair, in an abandon warehouse, with two of the hired men guarding the door while the rest stay in here. Rin will pretend to be kidnap as well, while Aya goes to the Yuuki household to get Naruto. Once Naruto defeats her hired guns, she will act distress and he will be right in her hand.
"Saki-sama, are you sure this good idea?" Rin asked once again as they waited for the five hired group of men. "I mean, what if this group is actually are wanting to kidnap?"
"That's why you're here Rin-chan." Saki said as she sat on the chair that will be used. "You're strong enough to defeat a group of thugs."
"Yes, but something tells me these aren't ordinary thugs." Rin said nervously. Something is off about those men.
Saki smiled at her friend. "Don't worry Rin. I know what I'm doing. And once everything goes to plan, Naruto will be in my hand." She let out her signature laugh, causing Rin to sigh. Before she could try to convince her not to do this, the door to the warehouse suddenly opened, gaining the girls' attention. "About time to show up. What took you so long?"
Jen, who's in front of his two men and the two Akatsuki members, smile apologetically. "Sorry about that. We were practicing our line."
And that's the end. So, what do you thought about this? Good? Bad? Be civil about your opinion. No flaming. And what do you think should happen next? Who should help Naruto rescue Saki? When should the Akatsuki and mercs/assassins reveal their true intentions? How should they be dealt with? Give me your opinions on the reviews. Review, favorite, and follow and I will see you later.
