Mira: Haha new chapter up. You guys probably thought it would take me forever again...wrong! I plan on finishing this story soon. I will try to update as much as I can this week since I have spring break and have nothing better to do than to stay at home but I'm not complaining.
Maya: How was the trip with birthing calves?
Mira: I was there for almost week and got a maximum of 5 hours of sleep. Stupid cows couldn't give birth on their own . nearly every one needed help. Thank you for energy drinks. Still had to go back to school after the trip.
Maya: I'm sorry.
Mira: It's ok it was an awesome experience. But there was a sad ending that one had a stillborn.
Nikki: baby cow went bye-bye?
Mira: Yea but it's ok. Her life wasn't i vain it was used as practice on how to save other calves life inside the womb. I also violated a bull.
Shadow: You raped a cow?!
Mira: I didn't rape it Shadow geeze. We just stuck a contraption in it ass that sends small electrical shock to stimulate it so it can ejaculate into a cup against its will...ok yea now that I said it, we kind of raped it I guess.
Shadow: Dude that's fucked up.
Mira: *evil grin* one was a screamer
Shadow, Maya and Nikki: O.o
Nikki: what does ejacquwate mean?
Maya: Something you don't need to know until you're older.
Nikki: *pouts*
Mira: Anyways to the story!
The smoke that surrounded Gaara and was so thick, nothing could be seen, slowly started to fade away. Everyone seemed to be looking on in anticipation, unsure what they will see. What was left of Naruto, growled as the mass of smoke and snapped as the smoke disappeared towards him.
Then all of a sudden an arm shot out and hit the ground, making is break under it. It was long and sandy-brown colored with red markings all over. (A/N: I know they are black/blue but for werewolf purpose they are red) The arm raised and swiped the smoke away, making is clearer faster. With the smoked cleared it was revealed a sandy-brown colored tanuki (raccoon dog) with red markings all over its face, body and tail. It was a little bit bigger than Naruto's form. It has a jagged, concave mouth with razor-sharp teeth and the sclera of its eyes were black with yellow irises and pupils that had a shape of black-four-pointed star with four black dots around it. Its ears were slightly longer in width and length, keeping the wolf like ears.
The leader gasped and glared at the new player in the game. "Damn it how did I not see this? The demon lord Shukaku was sealed inside that werewolf brat this whole time?!" he thought.
Minato slowly got up and looked at the demon lord. "G-Gaara?" he asked.
The other looked at him, obviously acknowledging the name. But he quickly looked back at the snarling demon king.
"Do not worry. I am still Gaara" he said. "The voice has given me power to fight and save Naruto. Just say the fuck out of my way." He then launched himself at Naruto who did the same, both meeting in the middle and started fighting.
Everyone else watched in awe. Not really questioning the voice that Gaara spoke of.
"I don't believe it" Minato said. "One of the demon lords Shukaku was somehow sealed inside Gaara this whole time, but how? He never mentioned this."
"I'm not surprised" said Shikamaru "No one knows much of the Sabaku clan. It has always been Temari, Kankuro and Gaara. They never talked about their family, if they have any, let alone their past. But seeing how when you spoke of the demon king and they haven't reacted to it, tells me that they didn't know Gaara had a demon lord inside of him."
"The fight must've awoken Shukaku deep inside and he granted Gaara his power." Kyuubi said.
"But if the stories are true about Shukaku, isn't he supposed to be sort of mad? Like a crazed killer and have a huge blood-lust," Said replied.
Minato looked at Sai, "Yes that part is slightly true. Supposedly during his younger years Shukaku was a crazed killer who only cared about himself and killed everyone that he thought was below him. Even known to attack the other demon lords if they taunt him or made fun of him since he was known to be some of the weaker demon lords. But that all changed when he got older and wiser. He learned to control himself. But legend said that it wasn't until he fell in love with the Demon King that he stopped killing others." He explained.
"It was known that Demon King and Shukaku were mates until he first went crazy and started killing the humans. Shukaku tried to stop him and did but that lead the humans into being able to capture and control the demon king. Once he started killing demons, Shukaku and the other demon lords used their powers to destroy him. With the last of his energy the demon lord must've sent his soul to a host to recuperate and sleep until needed. I guess it is fitting to see Gaara had Shukaku inside him."
"It must be fate that the two were drawn to each other" Jiraiya said. "They were mates once and mates last for entirety."
"So none of the other alphas had a chance to be with Naruto" Sasuke said. "It would've always been Gaara"
"Not necessarily. Although they are more drawn to each other and Gaara has the upper hand, Naruto is still his own person. He chooses who he wants to be not the fates."
"But Naruto seems to like Gaara more so you're shit out of luck" Kyuubi piped in.
"Hey you stupid fucking demons, quit yammering and start fighting" Hidan yelled and attacked Shikamaru.
So the fights started up again while Naruto and Gaara fought.
The new Gaara sucked in air and blew it out like bullets, hitting Naruto and doing incredible damage to the other. Naruto tried to dodge the attacks but Gaara seemed to be faster than the other. Naruto shot his tails at Gaara who blew more wind bullets at them. Naruto growled and stuck his tails into the ground, making them expand underneath and unearth the ground. The ground shook and vines like chakra came out, throwing boulders at Gaara.
Gaara swiped his tails at some of the boulders then used his wind bullets to break them away. Naruto extended his arms out and grabbed random boulders and rocks and launched them at Gaara, not caring who gets hit. Some of the rocks nearly hit others who were fighting.
Deidara threw some of this clay bombs at Iruka and Sai but they dodged it. Unfortunately it hit the cave walls and exploded. The cave shook and rocks fell as it started to cave in.
"Everyone get out!" yelled out Minato.
Zetsu seeing how the fight was going disappeared into the ground, away from the cave and the fight. He wasn't planning on dying and the fight was now pointless as with Shukaku now in the game he knew it would not end in his favor.
During the fight, Shikamaru was able to cut off Hidan's legs, arms and head from the rest of his body. But the other still tried to fight and curse at him. There was no way he could get out of the cave, it will be his coffin.
Tsunade fought Sasori and was able to get close enough to rip the container that was holding his heart in his puppet body. Tsunade did get heavily damaged by Sasori's contraptions that he had in his body. It wasn't the contraptions itself but that they were laced in poisons when touched. Luckily Tsunade is a great healer and with some time will be healed of the poison in her body. Usually she could instantly heal and get rid of it but the poison was an unknown and her body will need time to get rid of it.
The rest ran out of the cave except for Naruto and Gaara who didn't care. Their hands locked with each other as they tried to use their strength to push the other down. Because of Gaara's new form, he wasn't affected by Naruto's burning chakra skin. Everyone made it out except for Hidan, Sasori and Deidara who didn't get out in time for a rock landed on his leg and trapped him long enough to watch the entrance fill before a boulder landed on him. The leader got out and stood out onto a high tree branched as he watched the cave crumble into nothing with the two demons still fighting it out. He noticed that from there were only four of his men remaining but it didn't matter for he will win.
Naruto gathered chakra towards his mouth and shot out an energy ball at Gaara. He used his ability to move sand and created a wall to protect himself but it had enough strength to push him back a bit. Gaara then made the sand shoot out and hit Naruto who jumped up to dodge. But the sand followed and Naruto curled into a ball and used the sand that was coming after him to push off and hit Gaara. He then uncurled and sank his claws into the other's body and bit down on his shoulder.
Gaara grabbed Naruto and flung him away but not before Naruto clawed his eyes, making Gaara roar in pain as blood squirted out. The attack made him temporary blind which give Naruto the advantage and launch fire ball attacks at the other. Gaara was able to use his sand to protect him and deflect some of the attack but was still hit.
"Naruto it's me Gaara! Please stop this fight and come back to me" Gaara said to Naruto through a mind link the demon lord and king shared. But he got no response.
Tobi, Konan, Pein and Kisame looked at the mess that the two demons did. Konan who have heard of the stories between Shukaku and the Demon King, felt sorry for the two. But she knew there was nothing they could do to help. But with the fight escalating between the two, the others didn't want to fight. Tobi even went over to Sai and stayed by his side, although the others didn't notice because they were watching the fight.
The leader didn't like how the fight was going and growled. "I will not lose!" he thought to himself and using his power through the link to the demon king he increased his hold over the other and gave more power which helped unlock more of the demon kings power. This made Naruto roar louder and expand in size, his eyes glowed a deeper blue with a hint of black. Naruto ran on all fours after Gaara and pushed him back, water from the waterfall, where the cave once was, splashed around them. Fur started to grow around Naruto's new body which made the leader laugh and the others look at him.
"The demon kings form is nearly complete!" the leader yelled.
Gaara tried to get up but Naruto used his fist and beat down Gaara, clawing at him and his tails to pierce the skin of his opponent. Gaara roared in pain and tried to fight back but Naruto was just too strong now. Blood poured out of the wounds that were made.
'I won't lose you Naruto. I realized now in order to get to you I must kill the one controlling you' He thought to himself. He sucked in some air and let out a huge burst of air at Naruto knocking him off. Gaara used this time to send his sand at the leader. Naruto was able to recover and see that the sand was going to his master and deflected it but unfortunately for Naruto, Gaara predicted this and sent out another that can from behind the leader and struck him. The leader who depleted his power to bring forth the demon king couldn't protect himself as the sand went straight through him, making him fall out of the tree and hit the ground with a sickening crunch. His neck snapped from the fall but he died from the sand piercing his heart.
Naruto let out a roar as he couldn't save his master and attacked Gaara, who was weakened from the fight couldn't dodge it. Naruto's claws and tail pierced into Gaara skin, one of the clawed hands pierced through his chest. Gaara gasped as blood seeped out of his mouth.
"Naruto I will always love you" he whispered as the claws and tails left his body and he slowly reverted back to his normal form.
Naruto's mind started to clear as the one who was controlling him was no longer there. He started to see images but couldn't make out what was going on.
"Shukaku! No!" Naruto heard a voice yelled but wasn't sure who it was. He blinked and seemed to get images from the outside world. He saw destruction in front of him but when he looked down he saw Gaara, covered in blood and a hole in his chest. He gasped in shocked and let out a scream.
"GAARA!"
Mira: Cliffhanger mwhahahaha! Is Gaara dead? Will he be alive? Who knows what happens, not you because this is my story and I am GOD!
Shadow: You're not god you're just a bitch.
Mira: *glares* no one asked you. Anyways if my loyal readers noticed instead of it saying it's on the 23/24 chapter its on 20/21 chapter this is because I deleted my author notes to make it more professional and stuff. Sorry if this confused anyone.
Maya: You got messaged about it?
Mira: Yup but I'm glad because I never noticed that it would do weird stuff like that even stopping some from reviewing O.o
Maya: Weird.
Mira: I know anyway I'm gonna go write the next chapter and hopefully have it up in a day or two.
