With the last of her strength she lifted her head up " Naruto I….. I love you" She kissed him with all her might. It seemed like an eternity that kiss lasted between the two of them. To bad eternity wasn't enough time for them.
They had finally reached tsunade house. They both dispelled their beast. The white haired sannin yelled over to his student " Come on naruto the house is right their." He then saw naruto carrying ino bridal style crying. " Naruto what's wrong"
Naruto could barley get the words out. It was the most difficult words he ever had to say in his life. " She's dead."
For a 50 year old ninja who has been surrounded by death most of his life never felt so horrible until now. Jirayia tried to comfort his student but couldn't find the words. He just didn't know what to say. The only thing he could get out was " I'm so sorry naruto."
The blood soaked blond didn't reply he just collapsed to his knees. Never letting go of the girl he loved. Truly loved. He only realized how much he loved her once she was gone.
Tsunade heard voices outside the house she was staying at so she decided to check and see who it was. When she walked out she saw her old teammate, " Jirayia you're a bit early." she started to walk over to him. She got slightly annoyed because he didn't answer her. She was about to hit him until she the horrible scene of naruto holding a bloodied lifeless ino in his hands. She gasp " Oh my god. Jirayia what happened."
Jirayia looked at his teammate. He wiped his tears away before answering " It's a long story. We'll talk once we get naruto inside."
Tsunade gasped again " Naruto, that's naruto. Oh no. does that boy ever get a break" she started to shake and cry herself.
Jirayia hugged her for the first time tsunade accepted it " what's wrong. Do you know naruto."
The slug sannin replied " Yes. It was about five years ago."
flashback
Tsunade was just leaving konoha after having a meeting with the third. " I'm so happy I didn't have to stay long. This village brings back to many bad memories." She had just passed through the front gate when she saw something shivering out of the corner of her eye. Her curiosity got the best of her . What she found was definitely unexpected. She thought it wood be a wounded animal not a wounded boy. In the bushes was a young naruto beaten half to death. " Shousen Jutsu (Mystical Hand Technique) wow his wounds are pretty bad but there healing miraculously. Who is this boy." She got her answer soon after when she saw the fourths seal on the boys abdomen, " The kyubbi container. Well I better start a fire and wait till he wakes up."
2 hours later
The young boy started to cough and the finally lifted his head up, when he woke up he saw tsunade next to the fire cooking some fish. " Who are you and where am I."
Tsunade walked over to naruto and gave him some water. " Don't move around to much your still hurt. Anyway my name is tsunade and where about a mile away from konoha."
Naruto slowly sat up " Oh ok. Thanks for helping me out."
The slug sannin smile " No problem but if you don't mind me asking what happened to you."
With a sad smile he answered " Every year on my birthday a group of people from konoha beat me up and drag me into the woods. I've ask them why they do it to me. The people said the were reenacting the beating of a monster whatever that means."
The beautiful blond kunotchi fumed " That's horrible, why doesn't anyone stop it."
The young blond sighed " Most people cheer them on and anyone who would stop it doesn't know about it."
She asked " how old are you."
The young jinchuriki coughed " I just turned 8 today. How old are you."
She didn't really want to answer but couldn't resist naruto's face so she coughed out the answer " 47"
You could see the shock sketched on his face . " 47 but you look like your in your 20's"
Tsunade put her finger up to his mouth. " it's my own secret jutsu. Don't tell anyone." Naruto just shook his head up and down stupidly. " anyway if the villagers do this to you why don't you just leave. If you want you can come with me."
Naruto smiled so wide you could see all his teeth. " Thank's for the offer Baa-chan" A vein popped out on tsundae's head " but I'll have to refuse."
The ninja princess asked " Why won't you leave this place. I have bad memories here too. My brother and boyfriend died for this village so when ever I come here all I can think of is bad memories." ( I'm skipping what happens to tsundae's brother and boyfriend because you guys already know what happened and I'm lazy.)
Naruto teard up a little " I'm sorry about what happened to them but I can't leave because I share there dream. I want to become hokage and protect this village."
This blond haired boy was a complete mystery to tsunade. She couldn't understand him. " Why do you want to protect people that hate you."
The blond wannabe hokage scratched the back of his head " All the hokage's had to sacrifice things for this village. I want to be recognized as a person not a monster. that's one reason I want to be hokage. The other reason is because I want to be a hero that sacrifices himself for the benefit of everyone. So if I have to be hated and despised by everyone to make them feel better, then so be it. I'll sacrifice my happiness for them because that's what a hokage would do."
A ninja with years of experience and has seen so many different things in her life has never seen such a courageous and crazy kid. She couldn't help but smile. Dan, nawaki it seems like your dreams still live on in this kid. " Alright looks like I can't convince you to come. Naruto I'll be waiting to see the day you become hokage." She picked up her stuff and started to leave " I got to go now naruto but why'll definitely meet again"
Naruto waved goodbye " Goodbye baa- chan" when tsunade heard that she decided to let naruto be the only one allowed to call her that.
end flashback
Jirayia gave a sad smile to tsunade after hearing that story. " That sure does sound like naruto."
Tsunade couldn't believe it " I can't believe I meet naruto again like this. Jirayia why does such horrible stuff always happen to him."
The toad sannin just shook his head " honestly I don't know but we can't leave him like this we got to get him inside." jirayia let go of his teammate and walked over to the two blonds. " Naruto we got to get you inside. You can bring ino with you."
Naruto didn't say anything he just stood up and started walking over to the house. He looked at tsunade when he passed her. She saw such sadness in his eyes. Once naruto was inside the house she walked over to jirayia again and whispered in his ear " I've never seen someone with such sad eyes."
inside the house
Tsunade yelled to shizune " Hurry up and pack where leaving sooner then we thought"
Shizune ask " Why did something happen."
The slug summoner screamed " Don't ask just get ready to leave."
Shizune knew that there was something wrong but didn't press the matter. The white haired sanin's hair got even whiter when he looked out side " Shit you have got to be kidding me."
The only female sannin didn't really want to know the answer but asked anyway " What now"
He couldn't believe their luck " why the fuck does that snake bastard have to show up now. He even brought friends."
A 50 year old kunochi panicked " Orochimaru is here. Fuck what does he want."
Jirayia stated " I don't know but where sure as hell about to find out."
A certain snake bastard yelled " Tsunade I know your in there. Look all I want is for you to heal my arms. If you don't me and the sound four are going to have to kill you and who's ever with you."
The self proclaim lady's man became deadly serious. " I'm sick of this shit. Tsunade why don't we go out side and have are selves a little reunion."
Tsunade answered " alright let's go." both of them walked outside and began and epic battle.
Naruto could hear the sounds of a fierce battle outside but could care less. He just sat and looked at ino lying on the bed. " I'm so sorry ino I couldn't protect you. The person I cared the most about I failed. The villagers were right I am worthless" Images of ino flashed through his head. When they first became a team. The wave mission everything went through his head. " I love you ino and I never got to tell you that." Sasuke face popped up in his head. A fury like he never felt before was rising up in him. " Ino this is a promise of a lifetime I'll kill that bastard uchiha for what he did to you. I'll become a warrior of vengeance. No matter what happens to me you'll get your justice." he gave ino a peck on the cheek and went outside to pay orochimaru a visit.
The sannins battle scared the earth. When naruto went outside he saw craters and debree everywhere. He walked a little farther away and found Jirayia battling Orochiramaru, sakon, and jiroubou. While Tsunade fought Kabuto, kidoumaru, and Tayuya . The slug and toad sannins were on the verge of defeat when naruto yelled at the snake sannin. " Yo snake bastard I want you to deliver a message to sasuke. Tell him I'm coming for him. I'll find him and kill him for what he did to ino."
Orochiramaru hissed " Now that would be bad for me if you kill him. I need those precious eyes of him so I can't allow you to do that. Jiroubou, tayuya kill him for me please. "
Half of the sound four charged at naruto. They were just about to attack him when the kyubbi container let his fury out. " TenTai Katon ( heavenly body fire)." The blue flame surrounded his body. However this time he released so much chakra that the blue flame created a huge flare surprising the two sound nins. Before they could react they were incinerated. " Orochimaru I'm not playing around anymore. Get out of here and deliver my message to sasuke."
The snake bastard was surprised by naruto's strength " Shit that brats stronger than I thought. Let's retreat for now. I'll deliver your message naruto but I won't let you kill my precious uchiha. oh yea tsunade theirs other ways for me to heal my arms." With that said orochimaru and his sound nins disappeared.
Tsunade and jirayia both ran over to naruto " That was incredible. What was that." before naruto could answer he passed out from chakra exhaustion.
Jirayia frowned " That idiot the thing he just did used up all of his chakra it could of killed him."
Tsunade looked over to her teammate " I don't think he would've cared"
The toad sannin sighed " I hate to admit it but your probably right. Anyway we better get him inside and have you and shizune check on him."
the next morning
Naruto really didn't want to open his eyes because he knew as soon as he did it would be the first day living without ino. After a while he finally opened them and walked downstairs. He saw tsunade and jirayia sitting at the table. He couldn't face them all he could do was say. " I'm sorry I failed baa-chan I couldn't protect her. I told you I would protect the whole village but I couldn't even protect the person I cared about most. I'm sorry sensei for being weak. I'll become stronger."
They both looked at him with sad eyes tsunade spoke first " You didn't fail me there was no way you could've known that the uchiha was a traitor."
Jirayia then spoke up " I know you'll become stronger. I'm sure ino knew you become stronger and a great hokage."
The boy who never cried couldn't help but cry. " I'm sorry sensei but I need you and baa-chan to do me a favor."
The first hokages grand daughter answered right away " Anything what is it"
He took a couple seconds to regain his composure " I need you to tell everyone I died along with ino yesterday."
Jirayia yelled " what are you talking about. Why do you want to be pronounce dead."
He replied " Look I can't go back to konoha. If I do go back I'll go crazy. Everything will remind me of her."
The toad sannin countered " I understand but why do you need to have people think your dead. I can't let you do that until I know why."
The usually energetic blond could barely find the energy to answer. " I need to go a training trip to get stronger and I need to be by myself. I don't know how long it will be before I'll come back to konoha. I don't want anyone waiting or worrying about me while im gone. If you say I'm dead she won't wait for me she'll move on with her life. She'll find someone who can make her happy"
Jirayia couldn't think of who he was talking about until it finally hit him "TenTen"
A sad smile crept up on naruto's face. " she deserves better then me. I need her to let me go and this is the only way possible. Please just do this for me."
The toad sannin was against but tsunade new what naruto was feeling. She knew that this was probably the best choice. Plus she wanted naruto to have some sort of freedom from the pain in his life. " Okay naruto. As the 5th hokage I'll pronounce you dead but you need to make me a promise."
He quickly answered " Anything"
The new hokage walked over to naruto and gave him a kiss on his forehead " Promise me that when you become a strong man you'll come back to konoha and become the 6th hokage. Promise me you'll come back."
The blond jinchuriki nodded " I promise." Tsunade then placed a necklace on him. " What's this"
The old sannin smiled " This is the necklace the shodai hokage gave me. I'm giving it to you in the hopes of one day you'll give it back to me. When you become hokage."
Naruto ran up and gave her a hug " Thank you Baa-chan." when he pulled away from the hug he looked at his sensei " Look I need to do this sensei."
The perverted sage sighed in defeat " Alright you win. When you come back I'll be waiting for you. I give you a good ass kickin then but before then take these" Jirayia pulled out 6 scrolls.
The blue eyed shinobi asked " What are these"
Jiryaia smile " Call it a goodbye gift. I was going to teach you these in the near future. There a lot of high powered jutsu's."
Naruto hugged his sensei " Thank you I'll never forget this." he wipped the last of his tears away " Look I'm going to be leaving soon. I'm just going to get some stuff." He ran up stairs to the bathroom. In case I ever meet someone I know I can't let them realize it's me.
5 minutes later.
Naruto walked down stairs and what tsunade and jirayia saw surprised them " wow nice hair." his hair was no longer blond instead it was a dark red. He smiled " just in case I see someone I know down the road I don't want them to recognize me."
Jirayia smirked " The red a nice choice but why."
Naruto face instantly saddened. Jirayia new he asked the wrong question but naruto still answered. " It's to remind me of what sasuke did to ino. He made her blond hair dyed with red. And I want his to be the last thing he sees when he dies so he knows how ino felt."
Naruto was just about to leave when a small wolf came out of nowhere with naruto's Amatsu Yajuu (Heavenly Beast) sword. " My master told me to make sure you get this."
The small wolf surprised naruto " How the hell did you get here. I didn't summon you."
The small wolf growled " My master akaokami can send me into this world. My master also told me to tell you to call on him to help with your training when needed. He says he has many things to teach you." then the wolf poofed away.
The konoha gennin picked up his sword " Oh I missed you. Me and you are going to go through a lot from now on but will get through this." He then walked over to the room ino was in " I'm going ino. When I become a stronger man I'll come back to visit you. I love you and goodbye"
Naruto said his goodbyes to ero-sennin and tsunade before finally leaving. He could barley see the house that he was just in. he looked back one more time " For now Uzumaki Naruto is dead." As he was walking off in the sunset he said to himself " An the Amatsu Okami ( heavenly wolf) Is born"
Back at tsundae's house
" Hey jirayia we better get leaving. I'm going to bring ino's body so we can give her a proper funeral." she yelled
The perverted sannin replied " Alright Just hurry up." He was about to walk out the door when he herd a scream. " Tsunade what wrong" He ran over to where she was and all he saw was her pointing at the bed.
Tsunade said in disbelief " She's gone"
Jirayia slowly walked over to the bed and found a note. I'll take real good care of her. Abiru
