Chapter 5: Making arrangements


(Naruto's mindscape)

"Or I should be saying former Dark Prince"

Naruto was flabbergasted because he was just told of a story before the age of Shinobi, of, two Kingdoms and found out about a legend of two figures he didn't know about and turns out it was based off of the real thing, and the best part about it, was, he was face to face with one of them right now but was confused on what Keiran said

"Wait What? What do you mean?" Naruto said

"Naruto, I'm not alive anymore, I'm just a spirit that has resided within you" Keiran stated and Naruto nodded

"So who is the Dark prince now?" Naruto asked and Keiran just stared at him

"isn't it obvious?" Keiran said while tilting his head a bit but Naruto had a confused expression

"You are now the dark prince, which means you have a big responsibility now" Keiran said seriously while pointing at Naruto who had a shocked expression then looked down in thought

Naruto thought about what he was told and didn't know what to think about the subject.

He was now this Dark Prince, and, now that he was thinking about what he was told that explained what that power from before was. But, he wasn't sure if he was the right person to bestow that kind of responsibility on or power to

"I-i don't know, I don't know how I feel about all this" he said

"I understand, at first I was nervous as well...But I powered through, because someone trusted me to bring peace to both the Kingdom of white and black, because at the time that person didn't agree with the King of Darkness that wanted to overthrow the kingdom of white, he only wanted peace so that know one can parish again" Keiran said

"What happened to him?" Naruto asked

"He died, he wanted to find someone who could be next King of Darkness who could actually bring peace. He meet me, he saw that I was done with how the king of darkness was treating his people and so he challenged me to a sword fight to see if i was worthy"

"When I defeated him, he was down to his last breath, and, so he told me that in order to achieve peace I have to take the throne from the Current King of Darkness, and that's what I did I trained with my teacher in what I needed to know in order to be the King of Darkness, he told me that a king isn't just powerful but is also knowledgeable" Keiran explained while Naruto was just listening

"At some point I met Iris... My beloved. She was also the Queen of Light" He said with a loving smile

'I knew it' Naruto thought

"After I saw her for the first time, you should know. I fell in love with her right then and there"

"It was love at first sight" Naruto realized

Keiran nodded

"Yeah, after that I had another reason to strive for peace, I thought that if we were together that it will end the war between our two Kingdoms" Keiran explained

"But it didn't go as well as you have hoped. In the end, you got what you wanted... but at the cost of both of your lives" Naruto finished which Keiran nodded again

"Yes, but in this era, peace has yet to be achieved, and it doesn't help that there is still some darkness left in the world. Thats why I wanted you to achieved peace so that there won't be countless wars going on" Keiran explained

Naruto looked down.Why him? why was he chosen for this role? Can he really do this?

"What makes you think I can do this?" Naruto asked

Keiran looked at Naruto for a little bit before answering "You remind me of myself when I was young... tell me, this Yukino girl who is she?"

Naruto flinched when Keiran said her name how did he even know it in the first place? His head hung low as his hair shadowed his eyes but answered nothing less

"She's my...Childhood friend" Naruto said and Keiran hummed and nodded

"Tell me, despite what happened in the forest. You still care about her right" Keiran asked but it wasn't a question but a statement

Naruto clenched his fist, could he really forgive his 'Team' or at the very least Yukino...No! he couldn't because it still hurts for what they did and he can't forget about it, but still even if he can't forgive Yukino, he would still care and protect her regardless.

with a 'sigh' he nodded slowly and said

"I won't forgive them for what they did, but, that doesn't mean I don't care for Yukino, I still do, despite it" he said and Keiran nodded with a small smile but he can tell there was more too it

"Your a good young man Naruto, but remember there are many people out there, one day your going to find someone and cherish them like how I do Iris" Keiran said making Naruto blush with his other comment, it seems he saw through him

Naruto scratched the back of his head with the blush still on his face

"So what do you say? As the new Dark Prince Will you help me achieve peace once again?"

Naruto looked down for a moment before nodding his head

"Alright, let's do it" Naruto said with determination making Keiran smile

"Good, Now we have to discuss some other matters and your training" Keiran said

"Other matters? I get about the Training part but what else is there?" Naruto asked

"Well I have to tell you about the changes your body's going through" Keiran said plainly

"..."

"Not like that!" Keiran quickly said

"Oh...okay" Naruto sighed

"Now as I said, I have to tell you about the changes your body went through when you first awakened to your power"

Naruto nodded and gave his full attention

"But first, the power you have is the same as mine. Darkness or Dark Energy, how ever you want to put it. Now listen carefully, Dark Energy isextremely dangerous, it's destructive, unpredictable, and sometimes unstable. The energy can possess damaging effects on the user's body and their sanity if they have poor control over it. Trust me I seen that before and I don't want you to go through that. Now Accidental release of negative energy may occur. It Focused purely on outwards and destructive." Keiran explained but this made Naruto have a worried expression. Seeing this Keiran quickly explained

"You don't have to worry, since I'm going to be your teacher when it comes to these things, you will learn how to control it" Keiran said Naruto nodded and relaxed

"Now Then you can create, shape and manipulatedark energy, to draw out that power it is usually drawn from deep within your soul and into your body. It can be channeled to a variety of effects as an absence of light, a solid, gaseous or liquid substance. Basically it can be manifested in various ways." Keiran explained and Naruto looked down in thought

"When you say Manifest, I could create anything as long as I have a clear visual picture of what I want to create is that right" Naruto said pointing to himself

"That's right as long as you have a specific picture of what you want to create it will appear" Keiran stated

Keisan then extended his hand to the side and a black and red portal appeared shocking Naruto, then a large black and red sword came out of the portal, Naruto recognized it as the sword he used when he fought with Sasuke

"This sword is called the Sword of Darkness, it's what I was given when I was titled the Dark Prince, This sword is special because it can cut or reflect any Jutsu's, that's what you call it right?" Keiran asked and Naruto nodded for him to continue

"Okay, right now i want you to make a ball of Dark Energy to get you started" Keiran instructed

Naruto nodded 'Keiran said that i can tap into it from my soul and then it supposed to spread into my body, but how am i supposed to do that?' he thought

Naruto then lifted is hands that made it look like he was holding something and started to concentrate

Naruto and Keiran saw that little black sparks appeared and disappear but that was about it

"Try again but this time don't force it out concentrate more into your mind until you feel your dark energy and guide it through into your body" Keiran said

Naruto nodded again and this time closed his eyes, concentrating more, while Naruto was concentrating Keiran was thinking about something while looking at Naruto's stomach

'We need to speak with him later when that seal is off' he thought

Meanwhile Naruto was still concentrating it was difficult for Naruto because he hasn't meditated before, but he could feel something, he could tell he was getting close to the source that's when he felt it he could feel the Dark Energy and subconsciously lift his hands towards the Dark power as it was beginning to course through his body

"I think I got it" he said

"Good, how does it feel?" Keiran asked

Naruto didn't know what to feel at the moment, he thought when he encountered the Dark power it would feel intimidating but surprisingly it was welcoming for him, as the Dark Energy spread through his body

"It feels...Welcoming" Naruto said

"Okay, keep going" Keiran said and Naruto nodded

Keiran began to feel the Dark power coming off of Naruto as he smiled at the progress Naruto was going and spoke up

"Okay now imagine the dark energy is going out through your hands" Keiran said to Naruto

Naruto did what Keiran said and tried to imagine it coming through his hands

Spark*

Spark*

Keiran saw that the Black sparks from before are happening again more frequently, Naruto opened his eyes to see that the sparks are happening again as he began to try harder

then a small ball of dark energy appeared in the center of Naruto's hand, Keiran saw this and nodded he wanted it to be a little bit bigger but it was good for Naruto's first time 'He will get better through time' he thought, Naruto felt satisfied as he was starting to get fatigued from concentrating. But, He was glad he accomplished something, it wasn't much but at least he made progress

"Good job, we're going to work on that later so you can get better, now let's get to the changes in your body" Keiran said which Naruto gave him his full attention

"First, your stamina has increased along with your strength also your more durable then before. Next you have grown in height...well actually this is supposed to be your original Height but do to how you kept eating those Ramen noodle cups you couldn't grow properly." Keiran explained to Naruto who sheepishly scratched the back of his head

"How do you even know that?" Naruto Asked Keiran awkwardly

"I saw your memories" he said plainly

"Hey! that's a invasion of privacy!" Naruto Stated accusingly

"It's not like I did it on purpose I saw flashes of what happened through out your life up to when you went unconscious in the Forest of Death that's also how i know about Yukino" Keiran explained and now Naruto realized

"Oh, I was wondering how you knew about Yukino" he said while Keiran nodded

"Alright, let's continue, Next is you have Immense amount of Dark Energy and again you need training in order to use it. Also you have developed some muscles for your body" he said

"Eh?"


(Forest of Death)

Yukino and the rest of Team 7 were out in the open where a small river was taking a break. and, Surprisingly they were with Team 10 who suggested that they come with them which they agreed...Well mostly Yukino and Sakura did anyway, Sasuke didn't really care but kept his guard up around them since they only had One scroll left

"Okay this is a good place to rest i think the boy's should go get some food, while i will see if Naruto has any injuries on him" Yukino said

"I'll help you with that" Ino said which Yukino nodded in thanks

"Aww man I'm used to people giving me food though" Choji complained

"Oh stop complaining, Sakura and Yukino were the one's doing the most work before we showed up so they need to rest and Ino needs to recover as well" Shikamaru said

"Whatever" Sasuke said walking away from the group

'Sigh' "Man what a drag, Come on Choji" Shikamaru said

"Alright" and with that both started to follow Sasuke to get some food

Sakura looked at sasuke as he walked away. After what happened in the forest she was heart broken that Sasuke literally pushed her away after she tried to get him back to his senses. Yukino was still upset that Sasuke used a Jutsu on Naruto despite it not hitting it didn't matter to her and just seeing Sasuke not care if he used a Jutsu on his team mate left her questioning her if she even thinks Sasuke see's Naruto as a friend or even a team mate at all. Yukino saw how Naruto and Sasuke acted towards each other back at the academy but she had hoped that now that there on a team that those two could be friends but it didn't happen so seeing Sasuke do that kind of thing to Naruto didn't set well with her and if that attack actually hit Naruto and made him more injured then he probably is, Curse mark or not he had no excuse for what he did, she wouldn't forgive him, its not like she's any better either.

Yukino values Her's and Naruto's Friendship dearly and just thinking about how she left Naruto back in the forest left her feeling awful. Seeing how Naruto looked at her with no expression back in the forest made her scared, even though he wasn't showing any emotion towards her she knew that she was the reason for this change in Naruto but she hoped that Naruto would forgive her and prayed to Kami that he would still be her friend

Yukino Sighed and turn towards Naruto who was laying by a tree with the White cat still sleeping on his thighs even when they moved him hear they didn't wake up beside them was the huge black and red sword he had on his back, they had a hard time moving Naruto with that on, they didn't understand how Naruto could carry that big sword but she hoped he would wake up soon 'he's gotten taller' she thought as she looked at him then towards Ino

"Ino do you have any medical supplies with you?" She said

"Yeah I have some aldo it's just some bandages if that would help" Ino replied

"Don't worry it will" Yukino said

"U-um would you like some help with Naruto?" Sakura asked

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

""Eh?""

The two girls stoped and looked at Sakura with confused gazes, Yukino was the most confused because Sakura always hit Naruto and never tried to help him in anyway...well except for that one time when they learned the tree walking exercise in wave country and she gave him advice

"Um...okay" Yukino didn't know how to respond to that and Ino just nodded

"Alright, let's get to-" Yukino was cut off by a wave of power then a black and red portal appeared under the sword beside Naruto, the three girls were surprised that they couldn't move as the portal began to enveloped the sword intill it was completely gone like it was never there

"..."

"..."

"..."

The girls were silent for a little bit trying to process on what just happend, Ino suddenly spoke up

"U-um do you think N-naruto is going to get mad we lost his s-sword?" she asked while stuttering

"W-well we can just tell him what happened r-right?" Sakura said

"You think he'll believe a portal just stole his sword?" Ino asked

"I hope so, I don't want him to be upset with us" Yukino said walking towards Naruto while the two other girls followed

"Okay we have to take his Jacket off but we got to move the cat first" Yukino said while gently picking up the cat and moved it off of Naruto and to the side of him "There you go" she said gently patting the cat

"Okay, here we go" Yukino then unzip Naruto's orange and blue jacket and proceeded to take it off of him with the help of Ino while Sakura watched

"Woah!"

Ino got the attention of both Yukino and Sakura

"What's wrong?" Sakura asked

"I didn't know Naruto worked out, his forearms are so... muscular" Ino said with a blush as she felt Naruto's forearms Confusing Sakura but Yukino eyes began to twitch as she saw Ino basically messaging her friends arms 'Why am I acting like this?' she thought

"Yukino did Naruto ever work out?" Sakura asked

"Not that I know of" Yukino replied eyes still twitching as she still watching Ino touch Naruto's arms

"You girl's should feel them too" Ino said surprising the two

"W-what!?"

"Yeah! you should feel it too" Ino said as she grabbed Sakura's arm surprising her

Sakura then began to feel Naruto's forearms and was surprised to feel like she was touching a rock

"Woah! it's like I'm touching a hard rock!" Sakura stated making Yukino eyes twitch more then what it was before

"Yeah! it's like I'm touching Hard stee-" Ino said but got cut off by Yukino

"We're getting off track hear!" She said irritated

"What's wrong we're only feeling his arms?" Ino said

"That's not the point we're trying to see if he's injured not feeling him up" Yukino said but then made the two girls and herself blush at the last part she said

"Why did you say it like that!?" Sakura cried out with her cheeks a little red

"I didn't know how else to put it!" Yukino replied still with a blush

"Well why don't you have a feel for yourself?" Ino asked

Yukino still with a blush turned to Ino then to Naruto who was still sleeping then to his arms that was by her hands, Naruto was indeed muscular for his forearms but were still well toned with it to make it not stand out which suited him

"I-i don't know"

"Oh come on it's just a feel, besides he's sleeping he won't even know" Ino said

'Thats not the point here!' Yukino thought, she didn't know what to feel at the moment, before she met Naruto she was always a shy girl intill Naruto came into her life and broke that shyness out of her which she's thankful for. But, now that shyness has returned as she's thinking about touching Naruto with out his consent while Naruto always asked her for her permission to hug her because he knew she was still shy to in extent, but she was also curious on how it felt so despite her better judgment she complied

"F-fine but you two better not say anything to the boys especially Sasuke!" Yukino stated firmly which they nodded

Yukino then grabbed Naruto arm and inspected it for a bit then felt his forearms

"!"

'It really does feel like hard rock or more like hard metal for a Kunai or Shuriken, how did Naruto get it like this' she thought as she moved her hands feeling around Naruto's forearms while the Ino and Sakura just watched

A couple of minutes went by and Yukino was still feeling Naruto's arms lost in a gaze, both Ino and Sakura a turned towards each other with confused expressions as they both looked back at Yukino

"Um Yukino?" Sakura said trying to get the white haired girls attention but didn't work

"Yukino!" Ino said loudly making Yukino jump a little bit then turned towards her

"You okay you were touching for too long" Said Ino

Yukino blinked once, twice then remembered what she just did and blushed hard

"O-oh s-sorry i-i lost my t-traine of t-thought" she said stuttering

"It's...okay?" ino said awkwardly while Sakura just stared not knowing what to do

The atmosphere was now an awkward one for a couple of minutes but then Sakura broke it

"Should we continue?" she asked which Yukino and Ino subconsciously nodded at her words

"Okay 'sigh' let's not get side tracked anymore" Yukino said and they nodded

"let's check if he has any injuries on his a-arms" Yukino said the last part stuttering a little bit

The three girls began to inspect Naruto's arms while trying not to stare or feel him

"There no injuries here" Ino said and Sakura nodded

"Same here" Yukino replied back

Yukino then looked at Naruto's stomach area where Orochimaru did something to him

"Could you help me lift his shirt" Yukino asked ino who nodded and the two began lifting his shirt up but didn't expect-

"!"

"!"

"!"

At once the Three girls faces turned into a deep crimson red with smoke coming out of their ears, the reason why...Naruto had six pack abs that were also toned to fit his body despite his age, the three girls were speechless as they gazed on Naruto's body they didn't even register the seal that appeared on his body but overall he was fine with no injuries

Just then Sakura fainted while Yukino and Ino slowly let go of his shirt letting it fall to cover up his stomach

The two girls looked at each other before Yukino spoke up with her face still red

"We're not going to talk about this right?" she asked slowly and Ino just nodded sheepishly

"Talk about what?" A lazy voice said from behind them

The three girls turned thier necks so fast that they might have heard a cracking sound, apparently the boys have returned with some fish for them to eat

"Nothing! Nothing at all! It's none of your business!"

"Okay! Okay geese wasn't trying to pry or anything" Shikamaru said putting his hands up in defense while Choji and Sasuke looked confused

"What's wrong with Sakura?" Choji asked

"She's just tired right Yukino?" Ino said trying to play ignorance while Yukino just nodded with out saying anything

Sasuke looked at his Girlfriend but her head was just down so he couldn't see her face, he looked at Naruto who had his jacket off and just in a shirt and then turned to the fainted Sakura who was face first in the ground with smoke coming out of her ears and back to Yukino, he then shrugged his shoulders and went to sit down

'I didn't know Naruto was so muscular' Yukino thought while trying to hide her red face trying to calm down


(Naruto's mindscape)

"Is it that big of a deal?" Naruto asked Keiran

"Well it does benefit you so that you have extra time to train instead of training your body" Keiran explained to Naruto who nodded 'It also does something else, 'sigh' if only you seen what I just saw a moment ago' he thought

"Is there anything else to know" Naruto asked

"Yeah, there is, the seal that the grass ninja put on your stomach is messing with your Chakra control so once you get to the tower ask to see that Hokage to see if he can remove the seal for you"

"Okay, I'll do that"

It's also messing with your connection with the Nine tails, at some point we're going to talk to him about this as well and possibly make a deal with him" Keiran explained making Naruto flinch but had a confused look

"Wait! Why would we make a deal with the fox?" Naruto asked

"He will be essential for your Shinobi training, while im training you in dark energy, Sword fighting and other stuff for the future he will train you in the Shinobi arts, that way it will be faster for you to get stronger" Keiran explained but Naruto had his doubts

"What if he doesn't agree to it" he asked

"I have my ways of persuaded him so you don't have to worry" Keiran replied and Naruto nodded

"Well alright if you say so" he said and Keiran stood up

"Another thing, as of this day forward we are now partners, so it will be a pleasure to work with you" Keiran said extending his hand for Naruto to shake

Naruto stood up and took Keiran's hand and shook it

"It will be good to work with you to Partner" Naruto said with a smile and Keiran did the same with a nod

All of a sudden Naruto's hand was beginning to disappear which freaked him out

"What's happening?" He said looking worried

"Don't worry your just waking up" Keiran replied making Naruto relaxed and sigh in relief

"Oh, I was worried for a second" he said

"Before you go, that white cat that you encountered in the forest"

"Oh yeah! what about it?" Naruto said his body almost gone

"Just letting you know that you can trust her, I'll explain more when you wake up" Keiran explained and Naruto just nodded

Before Naruto vanished Keiran spoke up again

"Also her name is Catra by the way" Keiran said quickly

"Okay! bye!" Naruto said with a small wave before vanishing completely

Keiran was now by himself in the room and he sighed and went to go sit by the window, he closed his eyes resting a bit before opening them to look up at the clouds in the sky that barely showed any light coming down. He then had a flash back of Iris smiling at him warmly which made him smile as well

"I hope you're doing okay and I'll see you soon"

"My love"
