TFK: 21 is up.
Finally I know. Hopefully my story gets better. I'd hate to have to abandon it.
PS. Kabuto was the main enemy I had planned out before what's his name made Kabuto super evil powerful bad guy. Alright, sorry if I disappointed anyone.
Saddest tears in the Coldest rain P2
Naruto's past
The entire area was shrouded in this no one could see any and thought last were floating above a village hall walls and the forest surrounding it.
Like most people their stories begin with their parents writing their early chapters in their lives. However my story did not begin my parents writing for me, my stories early chapters were written in my parents own blood.
A man the mast is holding a baby Naruto. Threatening his life "Fourth Hokage step away from the nine tales Jinjuriki. Or your son dies at the ripe old age of 1 minute." The man said.
And thus my father saved me over my mother and set into motion her death his death and my sacrifice.
"I'll seal one half Kyuubi inside our son and take the rest with me with the death God." The Fourth Hokage said.
But Kyuubi would not let that happen. As the Kyuubi tried to prevent its new fate of being sealed inside me. It pierced my parent's body with its finger.
The giant nine tailed Fox pierced the fourth Hokage and Kushina with its finger.
But as they were dying they showed me love before the sealing.
"... Naruto... don't be a picky eater... eat heartily... so you grow big and strong! Take a bath... everyday... and keep warm... and... don't stay up late...get... enough sleep... and... make friends... you don't need a lot... but... just a few true friends... you can really trust... and... I was never good at it myself..." Kushina said with a smile and a weak chuckle. "But study hard and practice your ninjutsu... but...everyone has things they are good at and things that they are not...so... if... you have a hard time... don't let it get you down... respect your senseis... at the academy...oh... and.. one more thing... about the 3 ninja vices... be especially careful... when lending or borrowing money... and save... the money you earn... from missions... and.. don't drink until you are 20...and drinking too much is bad for you...and... as for women... I'm... a woman... so I don't really understand, but.. anyway... there are only men and women... so you will find yourself interested in women... but don't... fall for a strange one...! find... a woman like your mom...and speaking of vices... one more thing... watch out... for Jiraiya-sensei" Kushina said as Minato chuckled at the expense of his perverted teacher.
The group looked on in sadness as both parents lay next to the sleeping baby Naruto. Both dead.
And as the generations of Jinjuriki before me I… Was hated.
"Go away!" A child yelled.
"I told you to stay away from him." A father told his child.
"Let's go it's… It's him!" A young boy told his friends.
The group saw a young Naruto crying.
"Go away... you, you freak!"
"Freak!"
"Freak!"
A young boy Naruto continued crying his young eyes out.
"FREAK WHY WON'T YOU DIE!"
The young Naruto continued to cry.
Life as Jinjuriki is anything but happy. As no one acknowledged my existence I did whatever I could to be noticed, pranks was a means to an end. And I got in trouble for it. No one cared about me no one cared if I lived or died say for a few that did the 3rd Hokage, Ayame and Teuchi. and when I was 12 I found out why or rather I was told why.
"The demon fox that killed Iruka's parents and nearly destroyed our village has taken over your body you are the nine tailed Fox!" A maniacal man with a giant weapon yelled at a young Naruto.
It was then and there that someone acknowledged me. Someone, cared for me.
"He's going to use the scroll to get revenge on the village that's how beasts are." The same man told the other.
"Yeah that is how beasts are. But that's not what Naruto is." Iruka smiled.
And that's when I realize that someone cared for me and that is when I became a ninja of the leaf village. And as time went on I became a great ninja. It wasn't until I went to the wave country that I learned what true strength is.
"Do you have someone precious to you? When you have someone precious to you someone you truly care for and with your desire to protect them that is when a person truly becomes strong. You will become strong… Very strong." A young boy told a 12-year-old Naruto.
And even when he died I took his words to heart and even when his former master discarded him after his death all I did was use my words to change him.
"Oh shut up boy!" Naruto looked at the man who was in tears. "Haku always felt feelings and damn them I feel them to! Even when he was fighting you his heart was breaking in two."
I brought him to tears and brought him back from the darkness as he died a noble man. As time went on we returned to the leaf village where my first greatest challenge came up. The Chunin exams our sensei believed we were ready and so did we but that simple decision cost us greatly. As the snake bit us.
"My name is Orochimaru... and Sasuke... will come to me, for power. Hehehehahahaha!"
But the poison did not set in at this time. As the challenge went on we fought for our lives and for each other but it wasn't until we reached the tower that I truly saw my future.
"Hey loser if you truly wish to the ninja I have some advice for you. First off stop at the pathetic cheerleading it's disgraceful. And secondly once a failure always a failure one cannot change his or her destiny."
The group saw a pale eyed young boy lecture Naruto. But they also sell Naruto put his hand in the little bit of blood the was on the floor. "Hinata... I vow to win." Naruto held out his fist.
I made that blood oath that day ended with a month's worth of training with the pervy Sage I fought him to keep that vow. But it was very tough as he was very strong and it sometimes I've believed stronger than me. But no matter what I would keep that blood oath I made. And I made him about that day.
Naruto charged the white eyed boy. "I'll change the way the Hyuga clan…! After I become Hokage!"
I almost lost that day but…
The boy was standing over an unconscious body of Naruto. "Sorry but this is reality your failure and…"
The group saw Naruto the real Naruto uppercut the boy from underground.
I won that day and by doing so I changed him as I dragged him from his darkness. But all good things must come to an end as our village was attacked by the snake that started all of our problems. And it began death of the third Hokage. But one even as old as he would not go down without a fight.
"Alright you and I both know I haven't the strength to rip out all of your soul from its shell, you and I both know that's and yet your ambitious and here and now!" The old third Hokage bleeding from the mouth said his former student.
"This isn't over! There isn't any stopping my ambitious!" Orochimaru yelled.
"Yours is an obsession! This need to drown yourself in jutsu! And for this transgression you shall be punished! I shall take away all the jutsu you hold so dear!"
"What did you say!"
Everyone watched as the old third Hokage rips the soul of the arms away from the snake Orochimaru.
And as for myself I fought a fellow Jinjuriki, he's name was Gaara of the desert. But unlike myself he chose a different path. Live only for one's self love only oneself that is the way to strong that was the philosophy he lived by for most of his life.
"Believe me I will kill you I will not cease to exist!" Gaara said as he stared down a 12-year-old Naruto.
"I've… I've had it with you!" Naruto said if he head butted Gaara.
I won that fight. And like Zabuza, I changed him with my words alone.
"It's unbearable, isn't it? I know that feeling. I've been there before. In that dark and lonely place. But I have friends know. Friend that will stand by me. So I won't let anything hurt them, so I will stop you! Even if I have to kill you!" The bloody and tired Naruto said to the red head Gaara.
"But why? Why would you do this for anyone but yourself?" Gaara looked confused.
"Because they saved me from myself!"
I saved him from his darkness. And later, we became friends. Good ones at that.
With the death of the third Hokage we need another. Me and Jiraiya sent to retrieve Tsunade so she could obtain the position of fifth Hokage. But she refused to take such a job.
"Playing at Hokage… Count me out that the fools game." She said to Naruto and the white haired man next to him.
I was enraged at such a disregard for the title Hokage. So I challenged her, and lost. But I with my stubborn nature would not give up.
"Gimme just three days and I'll have that you to down flat!"
"Care to make a bet on it?" Tsunade asked him intrigued
"A bet?" Naruto looked clueless.
"I'll give you one week if you can master that Jutsu by then I'll admit I'm wrong and that your worthy of becoming Hokage and I'll even throw in my necklace." Tsunade pointed to the necklace around her neck.
One week had passed. But without an answer. Orochimaru and Kabuto had confronted her... and she fought them. For reason even she did not yet realize.
"Little kids think life is so easy... that why they go on and on about their dreams... THATS why they never give up." Kabuto started to kick a downed Naruto. "They go chasing after some stupid dream! And they die!"
But... I would not give up.
Naruto stood in front of Kabuto. Standing in between him and Tsunade.
"I warned you not to be stubborn! NOW YOU DIE!" Kabuto ran at Naruto with a Kunai in hand. "You've just thrown it all away! Dreams don't come true when you're dead!"
"Just get out of the way Naruto! No looked out!" Tsunade yelled.
"Heh, don't you worry about me!" Naruto caught Kabuto's hand with the Kunai in it with his own.
And I won that bet... As I shoved it in Kabuto's stomach.
"Compress the chakra... Keep it flowing and... Rasengan."
But I did not escape that fight... uninjured.
"You're wasting your time! With my last strength, I severed his heart's chakra network. I cut him off... from getting any help... form the... demon... the nine tailed fox... he's finished... Dead... all your skill are useless here..." Kabuto smiled. Even when he was down and had just been put through a boulder.
And somehow I even changed her for the better.
Naruto grabbed the necklace. "Hey... don't forget our bet..." He smiled as the wind blew. "Told ya... I'd win." He smiled.
"Did I not make it clear enough you fool! I'll die before I let you touch him!" A determined Tsunade said protecting Naruto from Orochimaru's his blade.
"Tsunade... even if you won't heal my arms... I don't need you there is one other way... When we next meet I will have the elixir of life... and I'll show you what it means to be truly immortal~~~" He said in a raspy voice. "Until we meet again... my dear old friends." Orochimaru sank into the ground. And Kabuto left in a cloud of smoke.
After the fight she returned with us to the leaf village things looked up but the darkness had surrounded Sasuke and consumed him.
"Sasuke has left the village we are to retrieve him." Shikamaru the group of four Genin.
As we chased after Sasuke one by one we fought the four guards of Orochimaru and one by one they and we fell.
"This next attack... with worth my whole life! Butterfly BOMB!" A chubby kid punched a monster in the chest.
"There is a reason... I can't lose..." The same white eyed kid told a spider like kid.
"You're about to die! Whip that smile off your face!" Some boy was about to stab the dog kid of the group.
"Your going to die here... sticking rat!" A monstrous like girl was about to stab another one of Naruto's friends. The lazy one.
"Your know nothing! My master understands me! What would you know anyway!" Another monstrous kid attacked Gaara and another kid in green spandex.
Until it was just me and him. On our battlefield was called the Final Valley or the Valley of the End. Negi never give in to your hate, never fight for yourself live only for yourself love only one's self that is not the way to be strong. If so you will become just like my friend Sasuke on the inside and out.
"Naruto… Let's just end it, Naruto... This battle... And all the battles we've had until now!"
Naruto and Sasuke charged up their strongest attacks. Naruto's Rasengan versus Sasuke's Chidori. Both boys charged at each other, Naruto covered in red malice chakra. And Sasuke in a hideous monster form.
"Naruto!"
"Sasuke!"
But even with my resolve I could not save my best friend and thus he fell into darkness. And he had fallen forever. I would not see him for three years.
Upon my return I renewed my promise to bring him back and for three years I trained to do just that, with three years of training I return to the leaf village stronger than ever before I received no rest as the very first mission was to save my friend Gaara of the desert, who was now the fifth Kazekage.
"You doomed yourself the moment you tried to use that sand armor and tried to from a defense...ne, and the best part is... I planned it that way all along... true art is... and explosion!"
Small flash forward.
"My mission is clear... ne."
"You bastards give Gaara back!" Naruto yelled
"Well un, you see we've already drained this Jinjuriki." A blond haired man said. "Jinjuriki... no matter who they are... or where they are from... they are all treated the same way. Hated and alone. The Jinjuriki that we already harvested, no one tried to save them. No one cared for them. In fact, they were happy that we took them away from their village." Said the blond one that seemed to happily sit on the course of Gaara.
"GIVE HIM BACK!"
With time and help. I managed to get my friend back. Or at least his body.
"Gaara... the Kazekage. He is dead."
That was the shocked looks on everyone's face.
"No... There is still time." An old woman walked up.
Small flash forward.
"It is good to see that someone like you will fix the mistakes of us old people. Please, help Gaara." Said the old woman as she pass away from using her jutsu.
With my words. I changed her, and she saved Gaara. One of my closest friends.
"I don't know how to say this but..." Naruto started to say sheepishly, only for his hand to be encircled by sand then both boys shook hands and departed from each other.
But good things must come to an end... when my teacher my godfather and one of my most treasured people Jiraiya of the Sanin... fell in battle.
"You were too late in figuring out!" 5 bodies came down and stabbed the toad sage in the back with black rods. The girls could feel the pain Jiraiya was feeling. Then after a moment or so, Jiraiya started to get back up.
Jiraiya gave a strong look to the toad on his shoulder. "Right!" The Toad hopped off the should and took off his cloak. Jiraiya started to write numbers on the toads back.
"I was curtain his heart had stopped... let's finish this." Pain said aloud to himself.
He did not give up. It is because of that small act that helped me do great things. After I got over my sadness, I went to train under Pa toad, the green toad from before, in the arts of the Toad Sage.
"You are the only one that can surpass Jiraiya boy and the 4th Hokage Naruto boy. He believed in you and so will I." Pa toad told Naruto as he was training to be a toad sage like Jiraiya.
It was then that Pain attacked the leaf village.
"What's going on!" Yelled a leaf jonin when an explosion happened somewhere inside the village.
"The Akatsuki are attacking the village!" Yelled an ANBU.
A man, with the power said to rival that of a god attacked my village. And yet they did not give up.
"Is Naruto Uzumaki in the village or not?" Asked a pain body.
They were after me. And yet...
"Naruto is a Leaf Shinobi, we do not sell out our own." Told the same scared Chunin from the beginning of Naruto's memories.
They fought... to protect me.
"Making a big entrance like that... so you could distract us so you can do your investigation in the shadows are we?" Kakashi Naruto's sensei stopped an attack from the main body.
The group saw Kakashi engage the main pain body and one other for a time until reinforcements could came and help him.
It was not just Kakashi; all of the village's ninja were dying.
"Is Naruto Uzumaki in the village or not?" Asked a paper woman's head.
"Drop dead." Were the last words of the ninja she had trapped.
"He's absorbing our attacks!" Another group of leaf Jonin and Chunin were attacking another pain body.
"Where is Naruto Uzumaki?" Asked another pain body while he held a ninja by the neck.
Finally Kakashi and a team managed to take out one of the bodies. Then with timing and a carefully laid plan Kakashi's group tried to take out the main pain body... and almost seceded.
"Crap! The other one can still move!"
Kakashi's Lighting Blade cut thru a pain body. 'Make it through!'
But they failed.
The girls saw the group that supported Kakashi all lying on the ground. And the main pain body still up and moving.
"You don't appear to be playing possum. You'll die this time."
'I didn't make it.'
The main pain body took a nail from a wood bored with his power. "Now... you will know pain..." Then with his power again sent the nail to Kakashi's head.
The girls gasped at the sight.
The body left and the leaf ninja suffer greatly at the hands of pain. All around ninja were fighting... and dying to protect the leaf and Naruto.
Back with Kakashi's group, a single survivor of a small force.
The next sight broke their hearts to see. A young man crying over the died body of his father.
"Dad... you covered me..." He was trying to hold in his tears.
"You can cry later Choji... is you can still move, tell Lady Tsunade about Pain's powers." A barely yet still alive Kakashi told Choji, he was unmoving.
Choji looked shocked. "Me?"
"You can be shocked later! Go tell her about pain! NOW! Don't let your father's sacrifice be in go to waste!"
"You're all as tough as nails." Said the down and ruined pain body. It created a missile and aimed it at Choji. Choji ran as fast as he could as the pain body launched the missile at his retreating form.
But... with Kakashi's last ounce of strength, he destroyed the missile allowing Choji to flee.
Still fighting the ninja were losing the battle. With so many died and only one pain body destroyed to show for it. It seemed so hopeless to the girls watching this memory.
"Is Naruto Uzumaki in the village or not? Speck up or your lives are forfeit.
"We're not telling you anything!"
Then the two ninja were died. Drained of their very souls it looked like. The girls hadn't heard Naruto explain to them what was happening. Maybe it was too much for him to see as well.
They then saw a man with dark sunglasses being held up by the neck. Tired from his brief fight with the pain body. "Is Naruto Uzumaki in the village or not? Tell me everything you know... or you will die."
The man was thinking for a moment. Then... "He is a fellow Leaf ninja... and I'll never hand him over to the likes of you Akatsuki." He told them with a smile.
But when all hope seemed lost. The leaf village launched its counter attack. Ninja from the Inuzuka clan attacked the body that could absorb jutsu. The ninja of the Aburame clan had their bugs eat at the paper of the woman Akatsuki. But a small genin was facing a pain body alone. With no help or hope of victory.
"Is Naruto Uzumaki in the village or not? Speck quickly or you will die." It told the boy.
Then, before he died he puffed in a cloud of smoke.
"A shadow clone?" The body asked. Too late it looked behind itself to see the boy with the Rasengan.
"RASENGAN!"
I have taught only 2 people the Rasengan Negi, you being one of them. But don't let that go to your head.
Naruto spoke up after a while of silence.
And when the time came, I was ready. I came to help the village... but I was too late to save it from its greatest tragedy those far.
"Now this world shall know pain..." The main pain body said from far above the leaf village. The girls could feel a buildup of power. "Almighty Push!" The girls saw a shock wave head towards the village below them. And the village was utterly destroyed.
But the girls saw a puff a smoke in the center of the destroyed village. It was Naruto with a group of big Toads.
With his new found power Naruto defeated each body one by one sometimes even twice until it was just Naruto and the main pain body. The power the main body had it was overwhelming then... Pain managed to pin Naruto down.
"It is time for us to go..." The main Pain body told Naruto after a small talk.
Then before Naruto and the ninja world would have lost, a young woman came to his aid. Pain easily dodged her attack. Naruto was shocked more than anything. It was Hinata Hyuga.
"I won't let you harm him anymore!" She told Pain with a courage she never shown before now.
"What are you doing! You can't face someone like him! Get out of here! Before he..."
"I know." Hinata told Naruto... and again he was shocked. "I'm... just being selfish..." She said to him facing Pain.
"What the hell are you saying! That's no reason to jump into a fight like this! Get out of here! He'll kill you!" Naruto desperately told Hinata.
"I'm here because I want to be..." She said. "... I use to always cry and give up... I would always get it wrong..." Yue, who had a sinking feeling what this was leading up too felt something cold and wet fall on her check. "Until you, Naruto, you showed me the right path to follow... I chased you forever... Always wishing that someday I would catch up. Always dreaming that we would walk side by side. Always trying to make it to where you were. You change me, your smile saved me... so I'm not afraid to die protecting you... Because I... Love you..." Hinata dropped a bomb shell.
Nodoka looked at how brave this girl Hinata was. And from Naruto's memories how timid she was just like her.
Naruto looked shocked and Hinata slowly activated her Byakugan, then she destroyed one rod that was holding Naruto, this shocked everyone she went for another one but Pain forced her away from Naruto. She was shocked at first, being hit by nothing. Then she charged to Naruto again only to again be hit by an unseen force. Bleeding from her head she still wanted to fight. She saw pain step in front of Naruto. The fight itself was hopeless. No one, not even Naruto had landed a single blow on this pain body. And it was by far the strongest of them all. The girls looked saddened at this, then they saw Hinata build up a massive amount of power in her hands. The chakra then turned to two lion heads.
"Gentle step: Twin Lion Fist!"
Then she charged at the last pain body. But it was no use, pain just side stepped or hopped over Hinata and her attacks. She didn't even get close to hitting him. The girls were hoping that she hit him and saved Naruto, their hearts stopped when Pain raised his hand when Hinata was going in for one last attack. But it never came, and she hit him knocking him off balance. Hinata then went back to Naruto to free him, destroying another rod, but before she could do so again she was hit by Pain's power and she flew high in the air, and landed on her head, hard.
"HINATA!" Naruto yelled hoping that she was alright.
The girls watched in tears as Hinata slowly got up, and limped to Naruto. Broken ribs, a fractured thigh and a cracked skull... Hinata tried to reach Naruto. She finally managed too after suffering and struggling.
"I don't understand..." Pain said. "Why would someone weak like you try to resist?" Hinata grabbed the rod that held Naruto hands. "Why fight me?" Hinata was feeling a little bit of the pressure on Naruto. "Knowing... that you'll die..."
Hinata took a moment to answer his question. "I stand... by what I say..." Naruto looked at Hinata's face with even more shock then before. "Because that's... my ninja way..."
Pain's response to her answer was he raised high in the air... then slammed her into the ground hard. He took out a rod from his sleeve... brought it down... and stabbed her in the heart.
All of the girls gasped.
"It was just like this... My parents were killed before my vary eyes... my ninja of the Leaf village." Naruto and the girls were watching blood come from Hinata. "Out of love... Sacrifice is born... hate is born... and we are able to know pain."
Negi... there will be times when someone you care for will be hurt in front of you... and you believe you could have done something... but... no matter what, never lose yourself... never lose yourself to the darkness... other wise...
Naruto again spoke up.
Everyone heard a heartbeat...
"Yes... know pain..."
Everyone covered themselves when a gust of powerful burning wind erupted from Naruto. When they looked up they saw an evil dark red beam of pure Chakra.
For this... is what you will become...
"Do you hate me!" Asked Pain to the face of evil. Naruto's new face. It roared as a response. "Very well... but my pain is greater than yours."
The battle between Kyuubi Naruto was a short and brutal one. Nothing Pain did affected Naruto in his 6 tailed state. Even his Almighty Push was usless. Until...
"Planetary Devastation!"
Pain created a small moon with the earth itself. But even that was short lived, as the power of the nine tails would not be held in such a weak jutsu. And 8 tails of its power came forth.
Inside the seal the girls saw Naruto struggle with himself. "Why... how did it come to this? Somebody... help me..."
While on the outside, the moon was being broken from the inside out, by the 8 tailed state.
ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAR
"So powerful..." Said Pain.
Back inside the seal.
"Somebody, help me! I can't take it! Somebody give me the answer!"
"Destroy everything... destroy everything that hurts you... You know what you must do. Rip off this seal and I will relieve your pain." Said the past Kyuubi from behind its cage.
Naruto with red eyes... slowly walked to the cage. The girls yelling at him to stop. The seal on his stomach undone and a blackness flowing from it.
"Yes... you are doing fine..." Naruto walked up to the cage and the water on the floor hoisted him to the paper seal. "Yes~~~..."
But then... Naruto's hand was grabbed, and he was pulled from the cage.
"YOU!"
The person looked almost like an older version of Naruto.
"Naruto..."
After a punch to the gut, Naruto and his father had a small yet meaningful talk. And Asuna's comment on how hot Naruto's dad looked, not that everyone else could say otherwise.
After the seal was resealed Naruto faced off against pain for the last time. The last clashes were hard fought and Naruto did one finally act to win.
"Did I use too much?" The last Pain body asked. He looked up to see Naruto make a Rasengan. "It's too late for that Jutsu... You haven't a ghost of a chance now... GIVE UP!"
"YOU GIVE UP!" Naruto had his clones tossed him.
"Wha!"
"Give up on trying to make me! GIVE UP!"
Too close and with no time to use his Almighty Push, Pain could not block this attack. The Rasengan hit home and the last Pain body was defeated.
Then after the fight, I went to confront the real Pain, Nagato.
"So... peace has finally come to me." Nagato said.
After a talk, I told him my answer to obtain peace.
"I will believe what my sensei believed in. That is my answer, because of that, I will NOT kill you." Naruto told both Pain/Nagato and Konan. "If there is such a thing as peace, I'll grab onto it and never let it go. And if there is no peace, I'll make one from nothing and I'll make it last for as long as possible." Naruto told them.
This shocked both Konan and Nagato to their core. "I see... now I see... they believed in you... Jiraiya sensei believed in you... I think I will... also believe in you."
With my words once again, I changed him and because of that He brought back to life everyone he had killed in the leaf village. He died soon after giving me his will and dreams that he held close to his heart.
"Where are you going? Not back to the Akatsuki I hope."
"I'm done with Akatsuki. My reasons for joining are not gone."
Naruto nodded. "What will you do now?"
"I will go back to the rain village, there is much to be done. But know that I and everyone in the Rain village will help you obtain the peace that master Jiraiya, Nagato and Yahiko wished for. Their will and dreams have been passed on to you." She told him.
"Pain... and the guts never to give up, that is what, I inherited from my teacher and fellow student."
Konan looked at him for a second. Then made a bouquet of flowers out of her paper. "This time... let you be the light that never goes out..." She told him giving him the flowers.
When I returned home, everyone was waiting for me, happy for me and happy that I beat an enemy that no one else could. But the victory was short lived, as the 4th Great Shinobi war started. And during it my true enemy did not like what she had done and later killed Konan. Madara Uchiha the source of all the problems of the Shinobi world.
But the war would have to wait for me. As I needed to take control of the power within me. The power of the Kyuubi. And I almost lost myself.
"Hatred... You know it is what powers you, you have no place here... disappear..."
But then... I met someone I'd never thought I'd meet...
"No... You have a place here... Naruto..."
My mother...
After a touching reunion and a punch to the face Naruto and Kushina talked and bonded as mother and son should, Naruto forgave her and told her about Madara Uchiha and how she was the Jinjuriki before him of the Kyuubi. But she too disappeared. The girls were touched by such a touching moment.
But Madara soon launched an all out attack on the great villages, at the cost of much he got the eight tails host Killer Bee. And then there was just me...
But I would not let the world end. I killed his new right hand Kabuto... or so I thought.
"Goodbye Kabuto! Wind Style: Rasenshuriken!"
It hit Kabuto. "This isn't over NARUTO!"
And I destroyed his laboratory. But things when I returned changed. I was made the 6th Hokage of the Leaf village. And I had a lovely wife Hinata. But I guess I was living the dream of most men as 2 others joined in. Shion of the land of demons and Mei the 5th Mizukage.
Many of the gasp and Asuna was angry.
It was a different time back then... so long ago. But... everything changed when Madara attack with an incomplete Juubi. It had only 8 tails and needed the Kyuubi to give it it's full 10 tailed form. The ninja held out the survivors of the 4 other great villages that were destroyed by Madara.
"MADARA UCHIHA FOR THE CRIME OF MURDER, TREASON, AND COUNTLESS OTHER CRIMES, I, THE 6TH HOKAGE, SENTENCE YOU TO DEATH!"
"What can you do to me boy! I'm an immortal. No one but an Uchiha can kill me now! Surrender and I'll spare this pitiful village and everyone in it!"
"Never..." Lighting flashed as he said the word.
"Then you'll face the wrath of the Juubi! ATTACK!"
To the ones watching it was a fight to see. It was a heroic last stand. If Naruto lost, then the free Ninja world would fall soon after. To the elder Ninja, it was a remake of the battle 16 years ago with the Kyuubi. Naruto look so much like his father. Smiling while his life was on the line. What felt like days was only an hour. Much longer than any fight in history
"This fight... is... over... Madara..."
"I... agree... I win."
"Your... wrong... Madara... I win...You see... a while back... Itachi gave me some of his power... and today..." Naruto closed his eyes. And then opened them."I'LL USE IT!" Naruto... had the Sharingan.
"The Sharingan Itachi you traitor!"
"Traitor? TRAITOR! ITACHI WAS THE ONLY ONE OF YOU UCHIHA'S THAT WAS LOYAL TO THIS VILLAGE! AND EVERYONE HERE KNOWS IT NOW! NOW DIE! WITH THIS NEW POWER I WIN!"
"You can't win, even with the Sharingan, My Rinnegan still beats you, child."
"We'll see..." Naruto was doing the seals for his jutsu 'Hinata, Mei, Shion, I'm sorry. I promised I'd return. And raise our children together. Watch them grow up. There first words... first steps... there first hand sign... there first crush... and there first mission chasing that dammed cat Tora, god forbid,...But, my loves, in order for that to be true... I need... to break those promises... forgive me'
"Forbidden Jutsu: Reaper's Seal!"
After he said that. Ancient seals marks appeared on the Juubi and the Juubi cried out in pain
"What's happening!" Madara cried out in fear.
"This Jutsu is so powerful that God herself forbids its use. Using it can have one of 3 not so happy consequences. None of which I know of. But I'll take whatever punishment she'll give me if it means that I beat you here today."
"This... can't... be..."
"IT CAN AND IT IS! THE ULTIMATE JUTSU!"
"FORBIDDEN JUTSU: Wrath of the Creator!"
Using this jutsu I defeated the Juubi and Madara... but at a cost...
"Long live the Kitsukage!"
"Long live the Kitsukage!"
"Long live the Kitsukage!"
Naruto smiled a bit. 'Kitsukage huh? Not a bad...'
Naruto didn't finish his thought he felt something pierce his gut.
"Heh... you like it. It's called The Sword of Corruption."
"You... think you've won... far from it..." Naruto managed to say.
"The Juubi is inside you now... When you die The Juubi will go on a rampage and destroy all life on this Earth... If I can't rule it... Then I'll... destroy it. I made this sword just in case Naruto..."
"You'll die long before... I let that happen."
"And what... will you... do hum?"
"This..." Naruto used Flying Thunder God Jutsu and got behind him.
"Wind Style: Tornado Blade!" Naruto had his tri-kunai infused with wind chakra to from a blade of unfathomable power.
"Now it's over..."
Madara was cut into 8 pieces but Madara died saying these last words.
"Maybe so. But that sword ends you too."
Madara fell to pieces.
'No time to think... must... stop... the Juubi...'
I did the only thing I could think of... I sealed myself.
"Uzumaki style:..." Naruto took a breath. "...The Forever Prison..."
A crystal encased Naruto.
"Naruto!"
Naruto looked up to see Kakashi. "Sorry ... sensei... When one heart touches together...Friendship is born...When you realized that a life lived, for someone else...Carries no regrets...You grow stronger."
Naruto closed his eyes and the crystal sank into the ground.
The girls were no longer in Naruto's memories, but back at Eva's main training ground.
Naruto was leaning up against a pillar and Kyuubi, the red headed girl if you didn't know, was standing over him. Naruto was passed out.
"How did we get here?" Asked Asuna.
"I brought you all here. You've been asleep for hours now. It is to be expected. You felt things that no one other than me and Naruto had felt." The red head girl told them. "Naruto is waking."
Naruto opened his eyes, gorgy, weakened and saddened about reliving the past.
"You awake!" Kyuubi hugged him.
"Huh?"
"We we're worried about you!" Kyuubi told him.
"Worried...? Oh right..." Remembering what he had done. he looked at the girls, and Negi, that he told of his sad and dark past. He awaited their views on his past.
One by one they all collected his thoughts, as they awoke. Naruto looked at them and studied their faces.
"Well..." He finally said. "... now that you know of my past and what I hold." He looked at them with void eyes. "What do you think of me?" He asked.
Everyone looked at him with utter sadness. Konoka, Setsuna and Asuna walked up to him first.
Konoka stepped up to him and hugged him while crying. At first Naruto was shocked. Kyuubi looked disappointed that Naruto was shocked at Konoka's behavior.
"I'm sorry... Naruto..." She said.
Again he was shocked. She had no reason to be sorry, she did nothing to him. "There's no reason to be sorry Konoka. It's in the past and the past is set in stone." He hugged her back.
"Why wait so long to tell us?" Setsuna asked.
"..." Naruto knew the answer but wondered about their reaction to that. "I guess I feared your reaction, to my condition. I have the greatest being to have ever existed in history in my gut. It can destroy all life on earth if it is ever freed or takes over my body."
"Hypocrite." Setsuna said.
"What?"
"You heard me. Remember what you said to him when I was about to leave everyone. Listen to your own advice sensei. It is because of you that I am still here, you don't need to fear what we think of you..." She started to blush a bit. "... because we think very highly of you." She mumbled something else that only Kyuubi heard. Kyuubi raised an eye brow and smirked.
Asuna came next, she walked up to him and...
POW
Gave Naruto a good bump on his head. Naruto was holding said bump. "OW! WHAT WAS THAT FOR!" Naruto yelled.
Asuna grabbed Naruto by his collar forcing Konoka away from the blond. "That was for being an idiot!"
"An idiot!"
"Yes! An Idiot! What the hell did you think we would think of you!"
"I-I..."
"Well! Did you think we would leave you!"
"YES!" Naruto yelled back. "Yes... I did... I really did..."
She lightly hit him on the head. "Hey, we're friends right? Friends don't leave other friends behind. That's what friends are for." She told him.
"Wow, who would have thought that Asuna could say something smart." Ayaka whispered to the group.
"What was that cradle robber!"
"You hear me you fat bamboo!"
The girls got into a fight and the others had to break them up.
Naruto was looking down.
"I told you Naruto." Kyuubi told him.
"..." He looked up to her. "Yes... you did. Maybe it was my fear that made me weak all this time." He stated.
"Could be. But that fear is not gone. These people, they care about you a great deal. Now that you know, never let doubt fill you again."
Naruto smiled. "Yes... you right."
"Now! Let's go celebrate! And of course, Naruto's paying!" Asuna yelled.
"What! Why me!"
"Think of it as punishment for being an idiot." She said. Naruto hung his head.
After they left Eva's place they went to the nearest place to celebrate much the dismay of Naruto and his Gama-chan.
"See Naruto... I told you. Anyway, about that... when are you going to tell them?" Kyuubi asked as they we're both watching the girls party away.
Naruto thought about it. His last descendant. "When I feel they are ready." He answered back while watching over the girls, and Negi. He too wondered... when we're they going to be ready? Or a better question... would they ever be ready.
"Well, I hope you tell them before something happens and it comes out. But I trust you not to make the same mistake like before." Kyuubi told him. Smiling as she did. But she then grinned back at him.
"Um... Kyuu, why are you grinning at me?" He asked somewhat frightened.
She continued to do so. "Oh... no reason." She said and walked off.
Naruto got a chill down his spine. "Yea right. And I'm not a 10,000 years old ninja." He said to himself.
After a while Naruto left the girl a whole boat load of money to pay for whatever they might do in the party. That that he minded a whole lot. He had more money than he could deal with. It was night once again and he found himself on the top of the World Tree looking up to the raining night sky.
'Why must you torture yourself?'
Naruto heard a soft and angelic voice. He didn't bother looking for the voice. "Because it's my fault."
'No matter what you could have done... nothing can change what had happened.' Another soft female yet stronger voice said to him.
"I should have been there..."
'If you had, you would have done it with your own hands.' Another voice as soft as the first one but not as strong.
"I would never...!"
'Madara's sword would have made you too. And Kabuto would have waited until then to strike no matter what...' The first voice said once again.
"I... I still should have been there. For all of my sacrifices our children are dead Hinata, Mei, Shion. All because I failed. I've failed as a father..."
'No, you have not... Kabuto still lives and must die. Our Daughter Naruto continued the research into what you were doing when she was still young... and she must have completed it.' Hinata's voice told him.
"That research doesn't matter anymore."
'Oh but it is... it is a key component to defeating Kabuto once and for all. Find it Naruto." Shion told him.
'What is lost can be found again. What has been done can always be undone in some way.' Mei said to him.
Naruto started to tear up.
'No matter how hard you try this is not something you can do by yourself. This evil threatens this world and you are not its only protector. There is Negi, Konoka, Setsuna, Asuna and the others. This is their world as much as it is yours. This is their burden just as much as it is yours. Let them help you.' Hinata's voice pleaded with him. 'Listen not to the tainted voice that is the Juubi. Listen not to the dark lies that Kabuto tells you.'
Naruto looked towards Hinata at this. "Kabuto lied about killing...
'No... That, he did tell the truth.' Mei said sadly.
'All is not lost Naruto. You can beat Kabuto, you know it, he knows it. You just have to beleve it. You will know how this story ends, when you are ready. We will meet each other again... someday my love. We are all waiting for you, on the other side. But please... don't use it again... if you do, a fate worse than death will be given to you. But, no matter how great and powerful the darkness is...'
It stopped raining. The clouds parted and the sun rise was coming.
'The light is never too far behind. Good bye... Naruto we will see each other again... soon.'
Naruto allowed the light of the sun bathe him with relief.
"Maybe... maybe I can defeat Kabuto. With everyone's help. Kabuto can go down." He smiled, doubt had left him now and forever. A new future awaited Naruto. A happy one even with Kabuto in the picture. "But for now, I have a Festival to prepare for and dates to go on." Naruto said in his normal voice that he hasn't used in so long. "Hmm~~~ I wonder who should I got out with first?" he said out loud.
All over Mahora girls sneezed.
END
