Thanks for all your support, your reviews made me finish this.

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto.

On with the fic!

'Kit, listen to me! Dammit, listen to me!' The enormous fox demon paced back and forth in his prison, sending out curses between clenched teeth.

'Damn that kid, he never listens! I have to do something, and quick! But what?'

He continued pacing back and forth, thinking over every option possible. Then he suddenly stopped. A sad smile graced his furry snout as he sat down on the cold stone ground.

"I'm sorry for this little one, but it's the only way out. I don't want to, but I guess it'll be something new instead of being sealed 24/7 inside of humans. Maybe you'll hate me after this, but I won't know." The demon closed his eyes and gathered a monstrous amount of chakra around him. Soon the entire cage glowed with a thick red colour that seeped everywhere. The demon got up and shook its fur before leaping into the bars and vanishing. Soon the red glow faded, leaving behind an empty cage with bars that began to break down and form a tiny locker, still with the kanji seal on it. (A/N: 'sobs' Nooooo! I killed Kyuubi! How could I! 'rubs hand' I know something you don't... Aah, I just love mysterious plots! 'sighs content' )

The blonde cried hard, rocking back and forth with his friends' body in his arms. But suddenly, he stopped and closed his eyes. When he opened them again, there was something in them that didn't look like before. They were now a scorching red, burning with contempt and a dismay only a demon could hold. He looked down on the body in his arms and his gaze seemed to soften a little, before he placed his clawed hand on the wound and once again closed his eyes. Red power surrounded him and the body, hovering around them with a loud humming noise. The demon/boy gritted his teeth and felt sweat pearl down his neck.

Just as it seemed like he couldn't take it any longer, the red power pulled itself into the body, which spasmed uncontrollably a few times, before resuming its normal breath. The demon/boy let out a bright smile, before slumping over the body and falling into unconsciousness.

Gaara clutched the hand that was holding his tightly. "Where should we go then? And what abut my siblings?" He asked quietly. Shikamaru shrugged and stared pleadingly into his lovers' eyes. "I don't know, I just want to get the hell out off this village! Especially now, when I have these!" He pointed at his antlers. Gaara sighed. He was a sucker for Shikamarus' big, brown eyes, and the other boy knew it all too well.

"Ok, ok, but only if I get to speak to Temari and Kankuro first, then we can leave. But what about your family?" The brown haired boy stared at him in surprise. "You don't know? My family's dead, I live with my aunt,who, for some reason, have decided to make my life a living hell!" The last of his words was clouded with anger. Gaara caressed the other boys' face caringly. "Hush, it's ok koishii, we will leave as soon as possible." Shikamaru smiled happily and pressed his lips against Gaaras' in a tender kiss. "Ai shiteru." He whispered. Gaara smiled. "Ai shiteru koibito." (A/N: Aww, wasn't that sweet? Love Gaara/Shika fluff! )

Sasukes' POV:

Dark…

Why is it so dark?

What happened?

Where?

Where am I?

Naruto? Is that you?

A light!

I'm coming!

Normal POV:

Rain began to fall on the two bodies lying emotionless on the ground. Suddenly, one of them gritted his teeth and groggily began to open his eyes. He slowly sat up, rubbing his eyes fervently. His black hair fell in wet stripes along his face, hiding his eyes behind long bangs. Irritated, he pushed them out of his face and revealed eyes that no longer were black, but a piercing yellow in colour. He raised his face to the sky and closed his eyes, revelling in the feeling of the rain pouring down on him. After a while, he lowered his face and noticed the still form beside him. He gasped and immediately crawled up next to it, cradling the body in his arms.

"Naruto, wake up!"

He felt for a pulse and sighed in relieve as he found one. At least he was alive, unconscious, but alive. He held the boy closer and wept out of relief and joy. He didn't even notice the fact that a long black tail curled behind him, or the fact that the unconscious boy, who before had only three tails, now sported a total of nine. (A/N: More fluff, give me more fluff! They're mine, my own, myyy prrrreciousss… 'sits in a corner, glaring madly at everything and cradling two plushies' Eherm, sorry, got a bit lost there, just keep reading)

Inside Narutos' Mindscape:

Naruto got up. He was, once again, standing in his head, near the cold cage where the demon resided. He began to walk towards the cage, but since it was strangely dark, he didn't see where he was going and bumped into something. "Itai…" He muttered, rubbing his head. He felt around him, trying to figure out what he'd bumped into. "Why is it so dark in here? Why isn't Kyuubi lighting up the cave like he use to?" He touched the thing in front of him. It felt like some kind of locker. He took a hold of something that felt like a handle and tried to pull it open. Nothing happened. Naruto frowned and searched the locker thingy for a lock or something. But all he found was some kind of strange note stitched to the front. "What the fuck is this!" He grabbed it and ripped it off. Suddenly the room bathed in red light he recognized. A gasp left him as he saw the now empty room. He was shocked. More than shocked, he was terrified! "K-k-kyuubi?" His voice shook. "S-stop joking, where are y-you?"

No answer. He looked wildly around, but the room was still empty, save for the lone locker, now open, standing next to him. Naruto turned to it and peered into the red. Suddenly his mind was overflowed with memories, and suddenly he understood. A large crack began to form in the ceiling as the light started to fade away. It widened until it reached across the entire ceiling, and then it all broke apart.

Normal POV:

Sasuke struggled to his feet. He was completely drenched, and sure to catch a cold if he didn't get into warmth soon. He felt - strange, at a lack for better words, void of emotions, like he was detached from the world. What had happened? The last he could remember was those people throwing stuff at him, then he suddenly was on the ground, looking up at Naruto, and then all went black. But what had happened? He shook his head, ignoring it for the time being. Right now it was more important to get Naruto and himself inside. But what had happened to Naruto? What had those people done to him? A loud growling sound startled him out of his thoughts. He looked wildly around in attempt to locate the sound. But they were alone there, so where did the sound come from?

Maybe the people were hiding somewhere close, and that was one of their dogs just about to attack them! The growl intensified, and suddenly he understood were it came from.

Himself!

'But I don't growl, only animal growl, right?'

Something was clearly not right here, but this was not the time to think about it. He continued carrying/dragging Naruto up to the door of his house and stopped, trying to figure out a way to open it without dropping him. He tried to fling him over his shoulder, and found with surprise that Naruto was nearly as light as a feather.

He pulled open the door and stepped in, quickly closing it behind them as rain began to pour in. Water dripped from his soaked hair down his back, giving him a very unpleasant feeling of cold. He was just about to walk to his room when a loud groan stopped him.

"Naruto!" He quickly dropped the smaller boy on the couch, looking intently on his grimacing face. Water streamed down the unconscious boys' face, looking just like… tears. "Naruto… Are you crying?"

Sakura stared down with an angry expression at the people standing in front of her. One of the men stepped forward, staring at the ground and twitching nervously. "Ehrm, Sakura-sama, we're sorry, but the demon is just too much for us, we can't take on him." She balled her fists and emitted a low growling sound.

"You cannot leave now! The demon will take over and taint us, every single one of us! One day you will come home and notice that your sons have tails, or that your daughters are pregnant with the spawn of the demon! And one day he will try to kill us all, and then rule the world!"

The men flinched at her words, and seemed to take her side again, but then the man spoke again.

"But Sakura-sama, the demon didn't kill anyone of us, he actually just hit them, he didn't even injure them!"

At his words, the crowd seemed to switch sides again.

She stared at them in disbelief.

"Are you siding with the demon now? Fine then, but don't come to me when your families lie died at its hands."

She turned her back to them and began to walk away. "Wait, Sakura-sama. We-we will follow you." She smirked, turned around and put on a sad expression. "I'm just as sad as you are about this, but the demon must be stopped! He has already killed, and we can't allow him to do it again. Now then, let's find him and cleanse the world of his evil!" The crowd began to walk, lead by Sakura, who was hiding an evil smirk behind her hand. 'Finally, I can get my revenge on that baka for all the times he humiliated me in the past, Sakura-chan here, and Sakura-chan there. Blah blah blah!'

Shikamaru leaned against Gaara as they walked, hand in hand, towards the hotel. He was happy, happier then he'd been since… since his dad died. A tear slowly made its way out of his eye and sneaked down his cheek. The other boy noticed this, and tenderly wrapped his slender tail around the taller boys' waist. Shikamaru smiled and patted it softly. 'This is almost too good to be true.' He thought.

Unfortunately, he was right.

"Hey, what's up with that guy?" A voice suddenly shouted. They both froze, Gaaras' tail slipping down until it hung behind him again. A massive crowd with people gathered around them, staring and sneering and pointing. Gaara clenched Shikamarus' hand so tight that all the blood disappeared. "Isn't it a bit early to dress up like this, eh? It's not Halloween yet, idiots." One snobbish looking guy stepped forward and eyed them condescendingly. Shikamaru clenched Gaaras' hand back. He recognized that guy. He was a known bully from the school, in the upper classes, and he always had other people do his work for him. He was also Orochimaru-senseis' favourite student.

"We can look just how we want to!" Gaara hissed, eyeing the other guy with a dangerous gleam in his now yellowish eyes. Fear shone in the bully's eyes; he wasn't used to people talking back to him.

"W-well, shall we teach these little pieces of crap not to talk up to those better than them?" He stuttered at the beginning, but gained more confidence for each word. He motioned with his hands to the other people surrounding them. "Yeah, Kimimaro-sempai." They all said monotonously, approaching the two boys in the middle.

Shikamaru stared terrified at the people that came closer and closer for each step, everyone adorning a stupid and evil grin on their faces.

"Gaara, I'm scared." He whispered.

"Me too…"

One guy that looked very much like a bull grabbed one of Shikamarus' antlers and pulled. The deer boy screamed in pain, as the bully confusedly shook him. "Kimimiaro-sempai! They won't get off!" He grunted. Kimimiaro stared intently at the boys. Then his eyes widened and he stumbled back. "T-they're not h-human!" He stuttered. For Gaara, who, upon seeing his lover getting hurt, had now begun to gleam with a yellow brown fire that seemed like it was filled with evil. His eyes were filled with a mad killer intent that scared the bullies shitless.

The person holding Shikamaru dropped him and stumbled back together with the other.

Gaara glared at them and pulled his lover back on feet. "Are you ok?" He asked quietly.

"Hai… But now I'm mad." Shikamaru licked his suddenly elongated fangs and glared at the bullies, his eyes an unnatural green in colour.

The crowd, formerly a merry bully bunch, now shook at the killer intent the two young boys radiated.

"Gaara, I feel… Strange…" Shikamaru dropped into a crouch, his body twitching. With a sickening crunching sound his body elongated, making him longer and thickening his bones. Suddenly a narrow bone grew out of his backside. He raised his head and screamed in pain as it got cowered with muscles, flesh and brown fur.

He lowered his head again, staring at the people… no, the prey. He could hear that next to him his mate went through the same transformation as him. The demon smiled a feral grin; the transformation was complete. He no longer looked like a human, but rather like some sort of mix between human, deer and some other wild beast. Shikamaru turned to his left and saw his mate crouching next to him; a bloodthirsty grin adorning his wild features. Gaara grinned back at his lover; his eyes asking the question they both desired.

"Let's hunt." And with ear crushing howls, they descended upon the now scared beyond belief humans. They buried their claws in flesh, allowing themselves to bathe in the warm blood that were so sweet. Soon they lost all rational thought in the desire to eat, and eat more of that tender meat. Ignoring the terrified screams, they tore down the humans, every single one of them. (A/N: Ooh that was a bit gory, I'm getting scared of myself here…)

Sasuke stared at the boy on the couch, panic beginning to spread inside him. He reached out a hand and wiped away the tear. Suddenly a red thin gash opened up exact where he'd drawn his hand. He gasped and pulled back, staring at the palm of his hand. He frowned; nothing seemed different, so where'd that wound come from. He turned his hand; nope, nothing different. He looked again. And froze. His nails shouldn't look like that! They were supposed to be round and pink, not sharp and black!

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"

Naruto blinked. He yawned tiredly and sat up, his tails waving back and forth. Somebody had screamed and woken him up. He looked around to see what it was and suddenly beheld the most hilarious scene ever. Sasuke, the cold and calm ice boy, was running around like a lunatic, his eyes wide open with panic, staring at his hands and of course, screaming in a high pitched tone that he'd never expected to hear from a boy.

Naruto frowned. Something even more unexpected was the long black tail behind him, and the fact that his once black eyes now were a disturbing feral yellow in colour.

He sighed. "Sasuke, don't you think that's a little bit overreacting, hmm?" The black haired boy stopped and stared at the smaller demon with wide open eyes.

Naruto smiled widely.

And then, completely unexpectedly, the blonde threw himself at Sasuke and caught him in a bone crushing embrace. He hid his face in the other boys' neck and cried. The dark haired boy, who now had calmed down, pulled him closer and put his head on Narutos'.

"I thought I'd lost you…" The blonde whispered, his voice thick with emotions he didn't bother to hide. He wrapped all of his tails around Sasuke, forcing him even closer in the embrace. Sasuke smiled and used his long black tail to wipe away the boys' tears. His smile froze on his face. "I have a tail!" Naruto stared at him in surprise, almost laughing at his terrified expression. One of his tails wrapped around the others' black one. "Seems like you do." He said quietly.

"But why?"

"You died. You died, and I… didn't know what to do. Kyuubi took over; and he… did something, I'm not really sure what, but it definitely changed you."

Sasuke looked at him, horror evident in his eyes.

"I'm… I'm not h-human?" He asked hoarsely.

Naruto looked back in surprise.

"What?"

"I-I'm a freak, a monster?"

Hurt flashed over Narutos' face, and he backed off.

"So, you see me as a monster, huh?" He said slowly.

All colour drained from the other boys' face.

"No! I didn't…"

Naruto raised a hand.

"It's ok, it was stupid of me to believe that someone would care and see me as normal for once." He stepped even further away, and began to turn around, when he was stopped by a firm grip on his wrist. He twirled around, anger blazing in his eyes and a hurting remark on the way out of his mouth, but was stopped by a pair of soft lips pressed against his own. He stood still, his eyes wide open in shock, before slowly closing his eyes and deepening the kiss.

Everything else around them seemed to disappear as the kiss got even deeper and turned the world a red hue around them. (A/N: Sorry people, but I can't write lemon stuff. You'll have to imagine it… You know, in you heads… never mind.)

Naruto opened his eyes. Something warm was huddled up against his back, and something long and slender was lying over his back. He narrowed his eyes, trying his best to see what it was. But he was interrupted by a low growling sound. A primal instinct immediately told him that he was hungry. Really hungry. He tried to crawl out from the slender object, only to have it tightening him further against the warm behind him. He sighed, but stiffened suddenly as the warmth gave off a content sigh. Naruto fervently shook off the thing over him and jumped out of the bed.

"What'd you do that for?" A deep voice grumbled from the bed. Narutos' eyes widened, and he blushed a furious deep red.

"Wh-wh-what!" He sputtered.

The pale boy in the bed put a finger on his cheek. "You know, you look really cute when you blush like that."

He then reached forward and planted a soft kiss on the still blushing blondes' lips.

After a couple of minutes, he broke free with a content, almost catlike smile.

"You hungry?" The black haired boy asked.

"Uhm, uh, y-yeah sure but…" His words were interrupted by a large crashing sound coming from beneath. They both tensed and felt fear flood in their veins.

"What was that?" Naruto asked quietly. The black haired boy shrugged, still listening intently. Then his eyes widened. "People are coming!"

They both flung themselves towards the clothes on the floor, and managed to pull on at least pants, before the door was thrown open and people pushed in.

Time seemed to freeze as they stared at the two bare chested teenagers.

"Demons!" A hissing voice broke the silence and the crowd began to push forward. The boys backed of, hands entwined together. "What do we do!" Naruto asked, fear evident in his slightly shaking voice. A bolt of rage flew through Sasuke. These people dared to threaten his mate? He crouched slightly, tail flicking behind him. He flexed his newly grown claws experimentally and grinned a toothy grin.

"We hunt." He answered quietly. He snapped with his jaws in the air, staring intently at the now hesitant humans. "Well, what are you waiting for? Are you scared for the big bad demon?" Sasuke said mockingly.

A pink haired girl stepped forward, a knife glittering in her hand. "Don't dare speak to us, you filthy…"

She wasn't even able to finish before Sasukes' claws embedded themselves in her chest. With a wicked grin he pulled out the girls' heart and licked experimentally at it, ignoring the thud that resounded after the body fell to the ground. "Human blood tastes good!" He exclaimed happily. He was just about to pounce on another, when an ear-splitting crack resounded from his back. He raised his head and howled in pain as he underwent the transformation.

Naruto could only stare in horror as his best friend and newfound lover stumbled to the ground in pain. The humans grinned tauntingly at the writhing half-demon and began to advance on him. A flash of anger clouded the blondes' face. They dare to approach his mate? Before he knew it, strange feral emotions flooded his mind, and all he wanted was to kill, to feel his sharp claws embed themselves into writhing flesh and to taste that coppery sweet liquid the flood through everyone. He crouched into an animal like stance, much like Sasuke had before, his nine tails flicking angrily back and forth. A growl emerged from his throath, directed at the people, who once again backed of at the new threat. Some of them escaped out of the house; only five stubbornly remained.

As soon as they were a few metres away from the still form on the ground, the blonde immediately pounced on his lover. He licked on the boys' face and whimpered softly. A quiet bark was his only reply, but he smiled in relief. But then he seemed to remember the humans and turned to them with hate and anger blazing in his red eyes.

"You humans dare to threaten my mate…"He growled between clenched teeth. Beside him, Sasuke got up on four feet, shaking off like a wet dog. All Naruto could do was smile in relief, as the same pain tore through his bones. He stumbled to the ground and clawed at his back and howled in pain. The black haired boy placed himself protectively over the blonde, all the time glaring at the humans. After a while, the pain stopped, and he got back up on feet. He smiled ferally at his mate, who replied with a smirk.

"Still hungry love?" Sasuke asked.

"Yep. Let's eat!" And with that, the non-humans pounced on the humans, ignorant of their fearful screams. All they cared about was the feeling of flesh around their fangs, and the lovely coppery taste of blood in their mouths. Soon, all humans were dead, most even partly eaten. Naruto sat on the ground, licking his claws clean of grime, while his lover finished grooming his tail.

"Love, I think it is best if we leave this town."

Naruto nodded and sauntered over to his boyfriend, planting a firm kiss on the others' lips.

"Let's go then." He whispered.

Somewhere outside the town, two half-demons stood close together, clutching each others hands. "Gaara, let's go now, okay?" The other boy nodded firmly, and with a last gaze towards the town, they disappeared into the forest.

On the other side of the town, two other half-demons were standing close.

"You know, I'm really happy that you got seated next to me in class."

"Me too." Sasuke replied with a tender smile. He slid his arm around the others' waist and for a while, they just stood there, relishing in each others company.

"Let's say goodbye to the town now, I'm getting hungry again." The blonde suddenly said, flashing a bright smile towards his lover, who nodded happily.And so, they ran into the woods, leaving behind a broken town. In the winds, you could hear the taunting laughter of the three demons, now free from their entrapment, and their voices lauging at how easy it was to manipulate humans.

Somewhere in the woods, four half-demons said their farewells to the last of their humanity.

The end... or is it?

At last! I finished it!

Please review and tell me what you think about the ending , and if you want a sequel. I might just write one if you want to, but only if I get many reviews telling me so.

Ok?
