*Sasuke's House*
--- Outside Sasuke's House ---
Sasuke landed roughly on his back but rolled many times before he met a tree that stopped him from sliding any further. Sasuke barely managed to lift himself to his knees, as his hand now covered the wound on his neck, his eyes were unfocused and almost closed due to the pain.
Takai slowly walked out of the house as Sasuke's blood still filled his mouth and ran down to his neck. Takai made sure to lick the blood from his lips as now he was prepared to kill with the next blow.
"This is the end of you life" Takai let out as he charged forward with sharp claws, aiming for Sasuke's neck
Sasuke's expression softened as his eyes were a complete blank like the first time he had shielded Naruto during their fight with Haku. Sasuke then leaned forward a little and smiled softly as he remembered how Naruto always smiled and then about his older brother Itachi.
Sasuke looked forward, although his vision was blurry and he waited for the final blow, knowing he couldn't' move anymore because of his wounds and chakra.
The last thing Sasuke remembers seeing was a tuff of blond hair that tackled Takai to the ground as they both rolled meters away from Sasuke's current position.
Both separated as they slid back and came to a stop when they placed a hand on the ground to stop the movement. Both glared at each other with an intense will to only kill.
Both were know kneeled with a hand on the ground to support the rest of their body, as their eyes met. Takai's eyes widened a little when he noticed the features of this one.
Naruto stood there, but had canines, his nails had grown into claws as his eyes showed the intensively of hatred he felt. They were crimson red and ready to kill at any moment.
Kakashi and Sakura arrived on the site as they noticed a badly wounded Sasuke who stood on the ground and far away, Naruto facing an unknown male ninja.
"Sasuke-kun!" Sakura yelled out not noticing Naruto or the other ninja
Sakura ran towards Sasuke as she kneeled next to him and tried to help him as she could. Kakashi looked over at Sasuke and saw how much wounded he actually was and then looked back at the two ninjas, to notice certain changes in Naruto.
"Kyubi's chakra is leaking out ........." Kakashi let out with worry
Over at the demon and Naruto, both stared at each other for a few minutes as one finally broke the silence.
"Kyubi" Takai let out with a very pissed off tone
"Takai" Naruto answered as he remained in control of his body
----
"You stay the hell away from Sasuke!" Naruto ordered as more red chakra surrounded his crouched body
"And who's going to stop me? You? Kyubi? Those humans?" Takai pointed to Kakashi as he stood up straight and took a few steps to the right.
"You're right, I know I can't beat you, but you did one mistake Takai" Naruto let out as he stood up as well and took a few steps towards the left, imitating the exact moves of Takai.
"A demon makes no mistakes" Takai shot back with another glare.
"That's what you think........" Naruto trailed off as he closed his eyes for a few seconds.
--- Inside Naruto ---
Naruto stood once more before Kyubi's cage but this time, a different kind of Naruto stood there, one who seemed enraged more than ever before. The blond stood there above the bloody water, hands closed, head lowered in shame, as his body trembled.
Kyubi noticed this change as he approached the bars of the cage as much as he could as his single eye focused on the blond who stood once more there.
"Brat you ........." Kyubi started when he was interrupted by the boy.
"Will you, take over?" Naruto let out loud enough for the fox to hear.
"Now why would you......." Kyubi never had time to finish his questions as Naruto seemed to know each time what he was about to ask.
"He went after Sasuke ........." Naruto trailed off as tears fell on the pool of blood
The moment those tears hit the watery surface, Kyubi knew better than to ask anymore questions to his host. Kyubi's eyes softened as he slipped his tails through the bars and pulled in the young boy against the bars.
"I will do what I can, for what he did to you my little kit" Kyubi whispered as then he looked back up, his eyes filled with rage, while the boy cried his eyes out against the soft fur of the fox's tails
--- Back to the real world ---
Only a few seconds had passed between the time Naruto had closed his eyes and spoken to Kyubi inside of his mind. Naruto began to move his hands a little, as he then opened his eyes and stared at his enemy.
"You've finally woke up, Kyubi" Takai commented as he noticed Naruto's eyes were now crimson red and slit, unlike the usual bright blue eyes.
"You're mistake was hurting the little one." Kyubi whispered as he now controlled Naruto's body
Not far form the demons, Kakashi sensed the enormous chakra that started to build up, as he was able to get a glimpse at Naruto's new eyes. The moment he saw the redness in them, his eyes widened as he took a step back and sweat drops covered his forehead.
Sakura was too preoccupied at tending to Sasuke's wounds to notice Naruto was actually in danger, while Sasuke's eyes were fixated on his lover.
"Kakashi, what the hell is going on?" Sasuke asked as his sensei seemed to snap out of his trance
Kakashi remained silent, as with one hand, he slid his forehead protector band off his covered Sharingan eye. For a moment, Sasuke saw the slight fear that showed in Kakashi's eyes as he then looked back at Naruto.
On the ground, both circled slowly as they made sure to keep a certain distance between each other, while Takai continued to talk sicne now he had what he wanted for so long.
"Demons don't care about humans, or have you become soft Kyubi?" Takai teased the fox.
"Most humans are weak, but this one, has a strong spirit despite the hardships of life he endured." Kyubi placed a hand on his chest as for a short moment his eyes showed sadness.
"Foxes were meant to become the servants of the humans" Takai smiled at the sentence he shot back.
That sentence alone struck a nerve deep within the fox's pride, and without thinking, or so it seemed, he lunched himself towards Takai, as one of his hands, gracefully reached a few shurikens in the back pouch, and hid the tool within the palm quickly enough that the coyote didn't see a thing.
"So predictable........" Takai thought as he blocked the first punch.
Kyubi prepared to use his other fist, when Takai held it in place, centimeters away, by the wrist. Kyubi seemed unhappy as the coyote simply grinned, as he had Kyubi right where he wanted him.
"Weak attacks like that won't work on someone as powerful as me" Takai commented as he tightened his grip on the fox's wrist, which held the shurikens.
"I see you still haven't learned your lesson" Kyubi growled as he opened his hand and the shurikens started to fall from it
"Nani?" Takai thought as his eyes widened
Kyubi had gathered enough chakra in that hand as he released the shurikens and used his red chakra to get them to hit the desired target that held him in place. Three shurikens were released and headed straight for the coyote's face, as now the demon had no other choice but to release his opponent to evade the attack.
Takai managed to evade the first two without any trouble, but barely dodged the last one, as it cut the side of his cheek and a small amount of blood seeped through the wound.
Kyubi regained his normal position, as he had one hand behind his back, while the other was prepared to do another frontal attack if needed.
Takai landed properly on his feet, but glared at the fox, meters away from his position, as he felt the warm blood leaking from his fresh wound. Takai brought his fingers over the wound t wipe some blood off, and brought them forward, to confirm he was wounded.
"You'll pay for that!" Takai yelled out as he charged forward with the great intent to kill
Kyubi no longer grinned as an enormous amount of chakra covered his entire body, just like at the Chuunin exam when he fought against Hyuga Neji. Kyubi took a step forward, as he charged ahead as well to meet the attack.
Sasuke and Sakura's eyes were wide open, surprised at how this battle was going on, as many questions crossed the boy's mind.
"Why does that thing keep calling Naruto the Kyubi, and how does he know that thing's name?" Sasuke continued to ask himself these questions as most his wounds were now bandaged
"This is even worse than on our first B ranked mission in the Water Country....... Has the seal been broken?" Kakashi asked himself this as he watched closely the battle
Their attacks connected, as Takai had the advantage. He manged to sink his claws into Naruto's arms as he prepared to strike the fatal wound with his free one.
Unfortunately for the coyote, Kyubi had used the same trick as the first time they fought. Despite the pain he felt in his wounded arm, his other one was free, as he gripped the wrist of than hand that wounded him and twisted it.
"You're the idiot for falling for the same trick twice." Kyubi snarled as he twisted his wounded wrist to grab the rest of his attacker's hand.
With both hands tightly gripped on the coyote's wrist, he enhanced his own strength with a little boost of chakra, as he pulled Takai towards him to then kick him in the stomach and flip him over on the other side.
Takai landed on his back with such power that the ground level lowered by the impact, as Kyubi's claws sank deeper within the demon's flesh. Kyubi now stood right above the demon's head, still his claws sank into his enemy's arms, to make sure he wouldn't try anything stupid.
"This isn't over........" Takai growled as he tried to stand up.
Kyubi knew what his opponent was trying to do, and quickly moved besides his enemy as he pressed his foot against the demon's throat as he sank his claws deeper within the wound.
"Just like your father........." Kyubi commented as a grin formed on his lips.
As Takai struggled, Kyubi's eyes widened, as he seemed to sniff the air for something. Although Kyubi's eyes left his opponent for a moment, the coyote found no openings to take advantage of.
"These scent........ I've smelled them before........" Kyubi mumbled to himself when he heard the boy's name being called out.
"NARUTO BEHIND YOU!" Sakura yelled out.
"Nani?" Kyubi thought as he quickly turned his head to look behind him.
Unfortunately, it was too late. The first image that his eyes saw were three ninjas as one had kicked Kyubi. Kyubi was thrown back, but managed to land on his feet and hands as he glared back at his opponent who still stood on the ground as well as the three new ninjas who dared to interfere in his battle.
"You again......." Kyubi said as his red eyes intensified with hate as he remembered what those three had done to his host
Tonai stood in front of Takai, while his brothers, Toshin and Tenshi stood at his side, but kept a meter distance between themselves and the coyote. Takai tried to stand up when the three brothers raised their hands and each performed a different seal.
"What are you doing........?" Takai asked as he managed to get on his knees.
"You did not respect the contract. Our lord wished to have a word with you about your recent actions and disobeying his orders." Tonai replied never looking once behind him.
"Why you ........" Takai started to object when pain shot through his entire body.
The three brothers had finished their hand signs, as a protion of their chakra entered the demon. Takai grabbed his neck as he fell face first in the ground and growled, while he took a last look at the brothers.
"You'll pay for this......." Takai growled before he went unconscious.
Markings appeared on his skin, as the two brothers picked up the demon from the ground while Tonai faced Kyubi.
"You're lucky we need to leave, for the time has not yet come for us to capture you" Tonai said as he raised his hand towards the sky.
"I'll make sure that you all pay" Kyubi let out as he grabbed multiple kunais and threw them towards the brothers and the demon.
When Tonai raised his hand towards the sky, a strong wind gathered at first around his feet, but soon expanded around the brothers that formed a look a like triangle. Before the kunais could hit them, they had vanished with the gust of wind and were now no where to be found.
"Damn them" Kyubi cursed silently as he punched the nearest tree
============================================================================ ======================
*Somewhere*
Tenshi, Tonai and Toshin were heading back to their camp as they leaped tree to tree in multiple directions in case they were being followed by any Leaf Anbu members.
In Tonai's arms, he held the great demon Takai who was unconscious due to the activation of the curse placed on him several years ago. Tonai looked at the sleeping demon as his other brothers kept commenting about the demon's behavior.
"Takai went too far this time......." Tenshi let out as he looked over to the unconscious demon.
"Our lord was right to send us after him, after all, we're the only ones who can suppress his powers for a short time." Toshin commented as he looked back at his brother who stood next to him.
"Come, our lord will know what to do with him form now on." Tonai mentioned to his brothers as they now headed to their campment.
============================================================================ ======================
*Sasuke's House*
After the three brothers left with Takai in their possession, the flaring rage of the fox seemed to cool down as the red chakra slowly returned within Naruto's body, as the blond himself regained his normal features.
Not far away from the blond genin, his sensei, and two teammates looked at him with confusion and yet a bit fear since this Naruto was seen only twice, and that was when they faced Orochimaru in the forest of death and when he fought against Gaara of the Sand.
Kakashi on the other hand let out a relieved sigh as he placed back his headband over the Sharingan eye and walked carefully towards his student. During that time, Sasuke's eyes never left the bruised body of his over, as Sakura had placed her arm around the Uchiha's waist to help him stand up.
"Are you alright Naruto?" Kakashi asked him as he placed a hand on the boy's shoulder.
Naruto looked down at his now shaking hands, eyes widened, as he still felt the strong presence of the demon fox within him, and the anger that this one had.
"That bastard of a coyote, I should of made sure he died at that time" Kyubi growled as Naruto's stomach began to hurt.
Naruto grabbed the fabric that covered the seal on his stomach and gripped it tighter as he was about to fall forward. Fortunately for him, Kakashi reacted fast enough to grab to boy in time and supported him as he could.
"Is it the seal?" Kakashi whispered to his student
"Dammit Kyubi! I know you're pissed but hurting me won't help any of us" Naruto mumbled as he closed his eyes tightly
"Kyubi?" Kakashi thought as he now knew the fox was again responsible for the blonde's pain
Naruto panted for a few minutes until the pain drifted away, as the fox seem to finally calm down. Naruto opened his eyes and gave a weak grin to his sensei as he pulled away from him and walked as if nothing happened.
Kakashi stood still for a moment, surprised how his student simply was hurting a minute ago and now acted as if nothing happened. He joined his team as Naruto finally reached Sasuke, to only be slightly rejected by his so called lover.
Sasuke hung onto Sakura since she was his support for allowing him to stand up despite his few wounds and bruises that covered his body. As Naruto approached the boy, he noticed how the blonde's wounds were already healing up as more questions crossed his mind now, more than ever.
"Are you ........." Naruto started to ask as he was about to touch Sasuke when this one simply took a step back.
"What the hell happened to you? Sasuke asked with a cold voice.
Once his question was asked, he felt the hand of his teacher upon his shoulder and gave him a certain look. The look that he should calm down before he says anything that might hurt Naruto.
"Che, whatever" Sasuke let out as he looked at the ground.
"Naruto can explain later, for now we're going to my house and get you bandaged up" Kakashi informed his team.
Kakashi walked pass his students, as he knew that they would soon follow. Without any hesitation, Sakura began to follow her sensei while she helped Sasuke to walk and keep up at their sensei's pace.
Naruto stood there, as he felt as though he betrayed the person who cared about him for the first time. He clenched his fists and closed his eyes tightly, while he lowered his head towards the ground as if he were ashamed.
"Oy bastard!" Naruto yelled out.
"What?" Sasuke shot back coldly as he leaned his head to have a glimpse at Naruto.
Sakura had stopped walking, sicne she felt the slight change in Sasuke's movements, and found him staring back at the blond. Naruto walked quickly over to his two teammates, as he grabbed Sasuke's wrist and placed his lips closely to the boy's ears, so only he could hear what words he was about to speak.
"I'll explain everything when we'll be alone........." Naruto whispered carefully to him as he let go of the boy's wrist and ran ahead to walk beside their teacher.
Sasuke stared at Naruto's back as Sakura's yes were fixed on her all time crush as she wondered what brought these two closer with time.
"Didn't you trust me before to tell me everything?" Sasuke asked himself as Sakura started to walk again to follow Naruto and Kakashi.

"Our lord was right to send us after him, after all, we're the only ones who can suppress his powers for a short time." Toshin commented as he looked back at his brother who stood next to him.
"Come, our lord will know what to do with him form now on." Tonai mentioned to his brothers as they now headed to their campment.
============================================================================ ======================
*Sasuke's House*
After the three brothers left with Takai in their possession, the flaring rage of the fox seemed to cool down as the red chakra slowly returned within Naruto's body, as the blond himself regained his normal features.
Not far away from the blond genin, his sensei, and two teammates looked at him with confusion and yet a bit fear since this Naruto was seen only twice, and that was when they faced Orochimaru in the forest of death and when he fought against Gaara of the Sand.
Kakashi on the other hand let out a relieved sigh as he placed back his headband over the Sharingan eye and walked carefully towards his student. During that time, Sasuke's eyes never left the bruised body of his over, as Sakura had placed her arm around the Uchiha's waist to help him stand up.
"Are you alright Naruto?" Kakashi asked him as he placed a hand on the boy's shoulder.
Naruto looked down at his now shaking hands, eyes widened, as he still felt the strong presence of the demon fox within him, and the anger that this one had.
"That bastard of a coyote, I should of made sure he died at that time" Kyubi growled as Naruto's stomach began to hurt.
Naruto grabbed the fabric that covered the seal on his stomach and gripped it tighter as he was about to fall forward. Fortunately for him, Kakashi reacted fast enough to grab to boy in time and supported him as he could.
"Is it the seal?" Kakashi whispered to his student
"Dammit Kyubi! I know you're pissed but hurting me won't help any of us" Naruto mumbled as he closed his eyes tightly
"Kyubi?" Kakashi thought as he now knew the fox was again responsible for the blonde's pain
Naruto panted for a few minutes until the pain drifted away, as the fox seem to finally calm down. Naruto opened his eyes and gave a weak grin to his sensei as he pulled away from him and walked as if nothing happened.
Kakashi stood still for a moment, surprised how his student simply was hurting a minute ago and now acted as if nothing happened. He joined his team as Naruto finally reached Sasuke, to only be slightly rejected by his so called lover.
Sasuke hung onto Sakura since she was his support for allowing him to stand up despite his few wounds and bruises that covered his body. As Naruto approached the boy, he noticed how the blonde's wounds were already healing up as more questions crossed his mind now, more than ever.
"Are you ........." Naruto started to ask as he was about to touch Sasuke when this one simply took a step back.
"What the hell happened to you? Sasuke asked with a cold voice.
Once his question was asked, he felt the hand of his teacher upon his shoulder and gave him a certain look. The look that he should calm down before he says anything that might hurt Naruto.
"Che, whatever" Sasuke let out as he looked at the ground.
"Naruto can explain later, for now we're going to my house and get you bandaged up" Kakashi informed his team.
Kakashi walked pass his students, as he knew that they would soon follow. Without any hesitation, Sakura began to follow her sensei while she helped Sasuke to walk and keep up at their sensei's pace.
Naruto stood there, as he felt as though he betrayed the person who cared about him for the first time. He clenched his fists and closed his eyes tightly, while he lowered his head towards the ground as if he were ashamed.
"Oy bastard!" Naruto yelled out.
"What?" Sasuke shot back coldly as he leaned his head to have a glimpse at Naruto.
Sakura had stopped walking, sicne she felt the slight change in Sasuke's movements, and found him staring back at the blond. Naruto walked quickly over to his two teammates, as he grabbed Sasuke's wrist and placed his lips closely to the boy's ears, so only he could hear what words he was about to speak.
"I'll explain everything when we'll be alone........." Naruto whispered carefully to him as he let go of the boy's wrist and ran ahead to walk beside their teacher.
Sasuke stared at Naruto's back as Sakura's yes were fixed on her all time crush as she wondered what brought these two closer with time.
"Didn't you trust me before to tell me everything?" Sasuke asked himself as Sakura started to walk again to follow Naruto and Kakashi.

Sorry if the chapter was shorter but please understand. I've been able to update all 5 stories in barely 2 days, even though some chapters are short, hope you still enjoy reading them!
Of all my stories I think I may need to modify this one when I have time, I notice something missing, not enough Sasuke x Naruto, but I guess that's why I wrote Rivals or Lovers, to compensate. Well let me know what you think ne?
