Rurouni Shinobi

================================================================ ====================

Disclaimer: The Pheox clan does not own Naruto. ^_^

Summary: What if Naruto wasn't from the Leaf? What if he was from the Cloud? What if Kyuubi attacked the Cloud instead of the Leaf but still got stuck inside Naruto? At the age of 12 Naruto is forced to leave the Hidden Cloud village, and he brings someone with him. 5 years later at the age of 17, and living a life as a rurouni he finds himself in the middle of a war between the Leaf and the Sound. (AU)

(The idea came to me while I was asleep. ^_~)(Don't ask!) Really

Chapter 2: Insults and Injuries

================================================================ ====================

Hai=yes

Kuso=shit

Demo=but

~*~*~*~*~=Time/place change

================================================================ ====================

Five years have passed and Uzumaki Naruto and Pheox Sierra are rurouni travelling the shinobi world, fighting rogue ninjas, helping out wherever they go, and arguing with each other along the way.

"So blockhead!" 16-year-old Sierra yelled to the blond jumping next to her. She was shorter than Naruto but not by much. Her wavy golden-brown hair was tucked neatly underneath a red bandanna. She wore a red t-shirt underneath a blue coat. Her legs were bandaged to mid-thigh with a dark red piece of cloth covering her left thigh and part of her right leg. She wore knee-high white boots and a glove on her left hand. Her kunai pouch strapped to her right leg. [1] "Any BRGIHT ideas?"

"Well the BLOCKHEAD doesn't,"17-year-old Naruto yelled back, his turquoise eyes glaring at the female. His spiky blond hair has being held up by a red headband. His black t-shirt being covered by a blue jacket. His black pants tucked into his black boots. His kunai pouch strapped to his right leg, and sheathed katana on his left. "BUT maybe NARUTO does!"

Just then a giant fireball flew over their heads, and they both had to duck. Behind them 4 missing-nins were chasing them.

"And anyways why am I always making the plans?" Naruto yelled.

"WELL," Sierra's amethyst eyes glaring at her friend. "If YOU hadn't stolen their food, then maybe we wouldn't be in this mess. EVER THOUGHT OF THAT!"

"No." Naruto grinned.

"WHY do I put up with you?" Sierra sighed.

"Because I'm gorgeous and sexy and the best shinobi in the world!" Naruto exclaimed.

"I'd rather keep my lunch in my stomach thank-you."[2] Sierra muttered.

Naruto just laughed while Sierra glared, as another fireball flew over their heads.

"Are they trying to burn us?" Sierra asked aloud.

"OBVIOUSLY!" Naruto shouted.

"So they want us dead?"

"And you call me a blockhead." Naruto grumbled.

Sierra laughed.

Two of the ninjas behind them, split up from their group and landed in front of Naruto and Sierra while the two remaining came up from behind. All of the ninjas were wearing black cloaks and black cloths covered their faces.

"Looks like we're surrounded." Naruto examined their situation.

"THANK-YOU FOR STATING THE OBVIOUS!" Sierra screamed.

"No problem."

"I'm getting a headache."

"Sorry to break up this annoying conversation." The leader of the group said. "But no one and I mean NO ONE steals from the Ryu-nin group."

"It's his fault." Sierra said pointing to Naruto. "He took the food."

"ME?" Naruto yelled shocked. "You were hungry and told me to get something."

"Yeah, but I didn't mean STEAL it!" Sierra yelled to her friend.

The leader motioned for his men to attack as Sierra and Naruto continued to argue.

The first guy took out a katana hidden in his cloak and ran forward trying to stab Naruto for the back. The sword made contact but all he stabbed was a log.

"Kawarimi?!" The ninja said confused.

"Yeah." Naruto said from up in a tree branch. People looking at him would say that he was bored. But Sierra knew that he was highly annoyed and angry.

"You shouldn't have done that." Sierra muttered under her breath.

"Oh yeah?" The ninja said.

"You should listen to Sierra." Naruto whispered into the ninja's ear. "She's usually right." A with a flick of his wrist he slashed the ninja's throat, and fell to the ground dead.

The remaining ninjas were surprised to see their comrade killed so easily.

"Enough fooling around." The leader said. "KILL THEM!"

"Morons," Sierra and Naruto both muttered before they sprung into action, charging their opponents.

Sierra charged the one on her left, while Naruto attacked the guy on his right, leaving the leader 'till last. It was an unspoken agreement to take out the weaker opponents first then attacked the stronger enemy together.

Sierra ran at her opponent kunai in hand. The two ninjas quickly exchanging blows, they were evenly matched in strength and speed, but Sierra quickly grew tired of the game and released some of her chakra weights. [3] With a quick burst of speed she stabbed the guy in the heart. He was dead before he hit the ground. Sierra went after the leader.

Meanwhile, Naruto started to do hand seals; preparing to try out a new technique, he created, in battle. Finishing with hare he called up the jutsu. "Red Lightning-no-jutsu!"[4] He called up Kyuubi's chakra and released it into the sky. Seconds later the sky blackened and five red lightning bolts came out of the sky surrounding the missing-nin creating a cage around him. Inside the cage lightning bolts were flying around slowly burning and killing the shinobi.

The sky turned back to it's normal blue.

Naruto looked and saw Sierra already engaging the leader, weights back in place.

"She never waits for me!" Naruto pouted, before he ran towards the battle.

Sierra managed to knock the leader back with a swift kick to the stomach. The leader started to do hand seals. Sierra charged again just as he finished the seals.

"Grass Skill! Plant Manipulation!" He yelled.

Sierra kept running until a tree root came up and grabbed her left foot, she tripped and fell down. The leader took a kunai and charged the girl.

"ROKA!"[5] A familiar voice yelled.

The last thing the leader heard was the sound of the soft peaceful ocean [6], before being decapitated. [7]

"You okay?" Naruto asked as he cut up the root around Sierra's ankle. When that was done he sheathed Roka and offered his hand to help her stand up.

"Yeah." Sierra took his hand and stood up.

They surveyed their 'battlefield'. Sierra's eyes stopped on Naruto's opponent. Or what's left of it. The only thing to indicate that someone once stood there is the pile of ashes.

"Show-off." Sierra muttered.

"It worked didn't it?" Naruto grinned.

"Whatever." Sierra took a stepped forward. But fell stumbled on her ankle. Naruto caught her before she hit the ground, and helped her to sit.

"What's wrong?" Naruto asked concerned.

"My ankle." Sierra pointed to her left ankle that was clearly swelling inside the boot. "I think I must have twisted it when I fell."

"Lets get off the road." Naruto told Sierra helping her to stand up. "Can you walk?"

"What do you think?" Sierra retorted.

"Bad question?"

"No, STUPID question."

Naruto took her arm and placed it around his neck hold it in place with his hand. His other arm circling Sierra's waist, supporting her. Together they walked slowly into the forest surrounding the road.

After a couple of minutes of searching they soon found a small cave. Naruto deposited Sierra on a big stone while he went to gather firewood, water and food.

When he came back, he started the fire, and started to cook the fish that he got. Then he went to Sierra.

She was still sitting on the rock watch her blond friend intently.

"How're you feeling?" Naruto inquired.

"Like I should be helping you." Sierra replied.

"Don't worry about it." Naruto grinned. "You just concentrate on getting that ankle rested." He pointed to her ankle. "Speaking of which, we should check it."

Naruto gingerly took off the boot. When it was off he noticed that it was a beautiful shade of purple/black/blue and it resembled a melon.

"You won't be walking on that anytime soon." Naruto observed.

"I COULD'VE TOLD YOU THAT!" Sierra yelled whacking Naruto on the head.

READ AND REVIEW!!

I LIKE ANY AND ALL OPINIONS AND REVIEWS

If you would like to see any of the people from Konoha please let me know. EXAMPLE=If you would like Rock Lee tell me, and I'll TRY to fit him in somewhere.

Also if anyone knows how to do Italics and Bold letters in their story please let me know. *_* (To make them appear in the story at FANFICTION.NET)

================================================================ ====================

[1]-Sorry if you think the description is long. I tried to make it short. I have a picture that I drew of Sierra and I tried to describe that picture. Very hard.

[2]-have you ever heard or seen something disgusting and felt like you had to barf. Same thing.

[3]-Sierra uses her chakra to create weights and places them over various places on her body: each foot, each knee, each shoulder, and her left hand. (Will be explained later).

[4]-Crappy name=good results.

[5]-Means white crest of the waves.

[6]- Rinji confuses the opponent by making it hear the ocean, instead of metal. They never knew what hit them. ^_~

[7]-This is my first attempt at fight scenes. I know it's crappy. If anyone has any advice on how to write fight scenes I would gladly appreciate it. FEEDBACK IS WELCOME.

================================================================ ====================

TECHNIQUE GUIDE:

CHAKRA WEIGHTS: This is easier than wearing normal weights, because if she gets seriously injured and needs to be carried somewhere, and she's wearing a lot of weights, it would be hard for the person carrying her to lift her. Right? With this if she gets injured she can release the jutsu so she won't weigh as much. Also she just puts out as much chakra and weight as she needs and doesn't have to worry about keeping a steady amount flowing, because once its there she doesn't have to worry about maintaining it.

RED LIGHTNING: Naruto channels Kyuubi's chakra and releases it into the sky, where it turns the sky black and then rains down 5 lightning bolts surrounding the enemy. It then left smaller lightning bolts fly inside the cage slowly killing the opponent.

GRASS SKILL PLANT MANIPULATION: Allows the user to transfer his chakra in to various plant and control them to do whatever they want.

================================================================ ====================

FALCON-RIDER: Sorry, but I have NO idea what you mean by "Some more explaining into the universe would be really awesome" PLEASE EXPLAIN.@_@ And I can't say if all of our Konoha friends will be in the story but I can guarantee Tsunade, Hatake Kakashi, Uchiha Sasuke, and MAYBE Haruno Sakura. There might be more but I can't say for sure because I'm writing this as I think of it (or dream it)^_~

TO ALL REVIEWERS, I THANK-YOU.

KEEP REVIEWING, I LOVE HEARING YOU COMMENTS AND I WOULD LOVE ANY FEEDBACK THAT YOU MAY HAVE PHEOX ^_~
