Gah! Next chapter is the Chuunin exams and when the Naruto characters meet up with these guys. Enjoy reading!

Chapter 7: Rage

Kwan and Rai reached the explosion site.

"Aiko! Mai!" Rai and Kwan called out. They heard a groan from under the rubble. The immediately ran over and began to remove it.

"Mai!" Kwan cried out. They bent down helping her sit up. She was all cut up.

"What happened?" Rai asked.

"Ambushed. They captured Aiko," she groaned out.

"Where did they take her?" Kwan asked

"I don't know. We were attacked from behind while we were putting out the fire. The next thing I saw was Aiko being dragged away unconscious and then a bunch of rubble fell on me."

"No doubt these guys are also ninjas working with the ones at the bank. This is a carefully planned operation. There must be a genius ninja planning all of this. Kwan?" Rai looked around. He was no where insight.

"Damnit! He's going to talk to the captured ninjas. I'll carry you Mai." Rai picked up Mai and began to sprint off back to the bank.

----

Kwan appeared before the captured ninjas who were awake. Kwan came up to one of them and stared him straight in the eye.

"Where is your hideout?" Kwan asked.

"I can't tell you. We'll get punished," the man replied.

"You're going to get punished no matter what." Kwan gathered electric chakra into his index finger and poked the man.

"Ah!" the man lurched around. "Alright! It's at the abandoned warehouse near the gunpowder warehouse."

"Thank you. When my team comes, tell them where I went," and Kwan vanished.

----Old, Dark and Abandoned Warehouse----

Kwan stood outside the building staring at the walls. The full moon was high in the sky. Kwan vanished and appeared inside right before Aiko.

"Aiko!" Kwan gasped as he saw her chained to the wall with bruises. He ran over and easily broke the chain.

"Are you alright?"

"I'm fine," she replied sitting on the floor breathing heavily.

"Aw. You came to save your teammate," a voice behind him spoke. Kwan turned around and saw a man with ten other men guarding him.

"You should have left her. You need to think about yourself more not others. Otherwise, you'll get killed." The man laughed.

Kwan turned back to Aiko and gasped once more. Blood was dripping from her shoulder. There was a deep gash.

"I see you noticed my little gift to her."

Kwan focused on the wound. Inside his head he saw his parents' death; he saw his dieing guardian, and he saw his dieing brother. He clutched his head trying to block the memories.

"No!" he cried out shutting his eyes.

'I can't let me friends die! I don't want to be alone again!' he thought.

Images of the dead bodies kept flashing in his mind. "No!" he screamed again. Then he stopped. His breathing was normal. He opened his eyes revealing yellow eyes with slits for the pupil. Tremendous chakra began to gush out from his body that it seems there was a huge gush of wind inside the building. He turned around looking at the men.

Kwan's nails have grown into claws and he had fangs for teeth. His eyes were filled with pure hatred.

"I will kill you all!" he let out a roar! His voice was no longer the innocent boy, but not an evil voice full of killing intent.

"Kill him men!" the man cried out. The men began charging after Kwan.

One of the men came right infront of him and stabbed a kunai into his shoulder. Kwan didn't flinch or seem to noticed. He grabbed the man's neck throwing up into the ceiling breaking his skull causing blood to pour down.

Kwan looked at two other on coming men. He held out his hand and darkness enveloped them. Kwan closed his hands, crushing the men into pieces splattering the area with blood.

He took the kunai from his shoulder and threw it at another man with an attached chakra string. The kunai went straight through his chest and Kwan pulled it back. He took the bloody kunai to his lips and licked it.

"Blood…" he whispered. Kwan looked at the remaining six men. They all stared into his eyes. Then they began to scream and clutch their heads. The leader took a step back staring at Kwan in fear.

Kwan's shadow dispersed into tiny pieces and turned into bugs. The bugs crawled its way over to the leader. The leader tried to run but tripped and the bugs began to crawl on him.

"Nightcrawlers. Deadly." Kwan laughed out loud.

The Nightcrawlers began to eat the flesh of the man. He screamed in pain trying to get them off but failed. The Nightcrawlers covered all of his body. The man writhed around in pain. Then he stopped. The creatures crawled back to Kwan and formed his shadow again. There was only a puddle of blood left in the man's place.

Kwan walked over the puddle of blood and scooped it up with his hands and took a drink letting some spill out from his mouth. He gave an evil grin showing his bloodstained teeth.

"I want more blood!" Kwan cried out. The six men began to run. Two of them was caught by Kwan's darkness and was dragged towards him.

Kwan bent down and stared at the two men that were desperate to get away. He laughed once again and then dove down and bit one of them on the neck. The man gave out a scream. Kwan sucked at the man's life. The man fell unconscious with the lost of blood, but Kwan kept sucking. Finally the man was dead and Kwan dove down on the other one. He too died.

Kwan stood up with blood dripping from his lips. The other four men were still running. Once again, darkness enveloped three of them and crushed them while the last one was dragged back to Kwan.

"Please! Have mercy! Let me go!" the man begged.

"A demon does not show mercy," Kwan replied in his demonic voice. "A demon will rip out your heart." He held out his hand and thrust it down aiming for the man's heart. Then he felt someone grabbed him around his waist and he stopped. It was Aiko.

"Stop it Kwan!" she cried. "I don't want you to become a monster! I- I- I love you…"

Kwan's eyes opening in shock. His eyes slowly returned to normal and so did his body. The great chakra leaking from his body stopped and Kwan collapsed to the ground.

"I'm sorry, Aiko. I…love…you too…" Kwan breathed and then fell unconscious.

----

Kwan was standing in a dark forest. He looked around and saw a man wearing black clothes and a black cape looking at him.

"Hello Kwan. It's me, the Dark Spirit," the man spoke.

"What are you doing here in my dream?" Kwan asked.

The Dark Spirit sighed. "It's not a dream. This is your mind. And I have something to tell you that I should have told you long ago."

Kwan looked at him confused.

"Follow me."

Kwan followed the Dark Spirit to a big cave with metal bars blocking it.

"Step up to it," the Dark Spirit commanded.

Kwan stepped up the metal bars. He heard a loud roar behind it and a crashing sound as a giant black panther slammed into the bars.

"What is that? What is it doing in my body?" Kwan asked afraid.

"This is Kurohyou. He is demon that threatened the village. I sealed him into your body before he could do anything."

"Why me?"

"Because you are the only one strong enough."

"What happened at the warehouse? I don't remember everything. All I remember is Aiko getting hurt and blood…"

"Your anger turned into rage that possessed your body. At that time, you were possessing the chakra of Kurohyou. He lends it to you when you really need it or when you ask him. But I don't know exactly what happened. I was blocked out by some force."

"I know what happened," came a loud voice. It was Kurohyou. "You're rage was so strong that you brought out your inner demon. The darkness that grew inside you from the pains you endured. The demon makes you become incredibly stronger, but your mind is also possed by the demon. When you are in that form, I am not lending you my chakra, but you are stealing it from me. You are forcing me to give you it."

Kwan gasped. "Me? A demon?"

"Yes. But you didn't go into your absolute form. In your absolute form, you are practicly invincible. You have black wings and a protective armor. You're eyes will become red instead of yellow."

"What happens then? Do I become a killing machine?"

"Yes and No. If you let the demon fully take over your mind, then you will kill everything in your path. If you are able to bring out the demon by your own will and be able to control it, then no. When you are in control, it will be yellow eyes."

"How do I bring it out?"

"That, you must figure out on your own."

The Dark Spirit spoke, "Um…Kwan, you got to wake up now. You've been sleeping for almost a week from chakra exhaustion, from the wound in your arm, and your psychological damage."

"Okay. But how do I contact Kurohyou?"

"Focus," was all that the Dark Spirit said.

Kwan drifted away.

-----

Kwan woke up. Someone was holding him down. He looked to the side and saw Aiko sleeping next to him with her arms around Kwan.

'Did she stay with me the whole week?' Kwan wondered. He brushed her hair aside showing her face. 'She's beautiful…'

Kwan managed to slip out without waking her up and walked to the kitchen. Rai was sitting at the kitchen table reading a book.

"Oh! You're finally awake."

"Eh…was Aiko with me the whole time?"

"Yeah. Anyways," Rai stood up and handed Kwan a sheet of paper.

"The Chuunin exams are coming up. And I'm recommending you guys."

"Finally…"

"But it's not the same. We are going to the world now. You will be testing in the country of Fire and in their village, Konoha. You will be facing ninjas that have never even heard our country's name before."

"So this is why we never entered before. We are going to show the world our power.:

"Yes. Well, since you are awake now, I'll be leaving. I'll tell Mai you're fine." With that, Rai left the house.

Kwan placed the sheets on the table and walked back into his room. He stared at Aiko's beautiful body. Kwan lay next to Aiko and placed his arms around her and went back to sleep.

-Sand-

There was a red-haired boy standing in the middle of a field and was surrounded by a group of men. Off to the side, two of the boy's teammates.

"I don't understand why we have to come. He does all the killing," the boy asked.

"We tag along to make sure he comes back and doesn't go off killing people," the girl replied.

The red-haired boy thrust his hands out and sand enveloped the nearest group of men. He closed his hands and the sand crushed them into pieces.

Weapons were thrown at him but were stopped by a shield of sand. The red-haired boy then had sand envelope him and he turned into a beast with sand as flesh. The beast walked around the area killing everyone in his path. When he was finished, no one was alive…

-On a bridge in the country of Wave-

A blonde hair boy jumped and began punching ice mirrors that trapped him. His eyes were red and there was red chakra surrounding him. He easily destroyed all the mirrors and then punched a masked boy in the face making him fly back.

The boy was enraged. He wanted to kill the masked boy for killing his rival, his friend. The boy charged at the masked boy ready to punch him in the face. The mask of the boy began to slide of. Half of it fell; the blonde-haired boy was approaching quickly. The half fell.

The boy stopped inches from his face…

--------------------------

Uh…yea…gory…um…tell me what you think. In the next chapter, the Dark Ninjas are in Konoha discovering the enemies that they will fight. Then they will take the first exam.

Now for the humor section.

--------------------------

Kyuubi was sitting at a table along with Kurohyou and Shukaku. Kyuubi was shuffling some cards while the other two were waiting.

Kyuubi dealt two cards to each demon.

"I bet ten thousand," Kurohyou spoke.

"Wait…" Shukaku spoke. "Ten thousand what. We're demons. We don't have any money."

"Oh yeah," Kurohyou scratched his head. "Fine, I bet you ten pieces of candy."

"I call!" Shukaka slapped down some pieces of candy.

"I call also!" Kyuubi cried out.

Out came the flop: a King of spades, ace of spades, and queen of spades.

"I raise it twenty pieces of candy!" Kurohyou cried out.

"I call!"

"Call"

The next card: a five of diamonds.

"I…check…"

"Raise it five."

"Call."

"Call."

River card: a six of hearts.

"I'm all in."

"I call!"

"Call!"

Kurohyou laughed out loud slamming down his hand.

"Two, three of clubs. Straight! Queen, King, Ace, Two, Three!" He laughed again but then received a heavy blow on the back of his head.

"You idiot! You can't have a straight like that!" Kwan screamed with his eyes twitching.

"Wait. When were you in the room?" Kurohyou cried, rubbing his head.

"Just now, along with Naruto and Gaara. I was hear long enough to say your stupid hand."

Kurohyou coward.

"Well, I guess I win," Shukaku placed his hand on the table. "A ten and eight of spades. Flush." He received a heavy blow on his head.

"You idiot! There are only two spades on the table!" Gaara cried.

"What? I swore there was another spade!" Shukaku cried also cowering.

"I guess." Kyuubi placed down his hand which was a six and seven of diamonds. "A pair."

"Yay! My demon won! Pay up!" Naruto cried out. Kwan and Gaara ground as they handed Naruto some money.

Naruto placed the money in his pocket and helped carry some of the candy for Kyuubi. They sprinted it off. The lasting they heard was "Ramen" and "suckers".

The four was standing there.

"That sucks," Kurohyou spoke.

"You idiot," Kwan spoke.

"Hey wait!" Gaara yelled out. "There are three spades on the table…OH MY GOD! HE MUST HAVE USED A GENJUTSU! WE SHOULD HAVE WON!"

Shukaku stood up. The two ran after the two tricksters.

"Cheater!" Kurohyou cried, getting ready to run after them. He received another blow on his head.

"You still lose! You had no hand what so ever!" Kwan screamed.

"Ah!!!" Kurohyou ran as Kwan chased him.

Off to the side…

"Ha! I win!" Temari cried. "Pay up."

"Darn! Naruto…why did you have to be so tricky…" Hinata cried as she handed her money to Temari.

"Gah! Why does Kwan have to have a dumbass for a demon?" Aiko cried as she handed the money to Temari. The three then walked off together.

Off to the other side…

Sakura and Ino were sitting and watching the whole thing with a crowd of people behind them. They were all laughing their heads off.

"Easy money, right Ino?" Sakura spoke.

"Yeah. Who would have thought that people would pay to see people bet on one another and see stupid things happen."

"We should do this more often," Sakura suggested.

"Yeah…" Ino agreed.

The both gave an evil smirk…
