Last time:

Kakashi turned to look at Sakura's progress, as Naruto could not be helped any further.

Suddenly, Naruto's body became the source of an enormously blinding light.

Double Trouble

Chapter 2: Another one?

Since nobody of Team 7 had a pact with the Shinigami, none of them saw what happened to Naruto during the short, but intense outburst of white light. Kyuubi's soul was returned by the Shinigami. A mirror reflected copy of the seal on Naruto started to appear over the original. Only where the original glowed bright red, the mirror seal glowed a bright light yellow. Also, there appeared a secondary swirl in the middle of the seal. After the flash, the now double seal disappeared, as Naruto wasn't molding Chakra.

Kakashi was surprised to say the least, seeing Naruto grabbing his bags, which were next to him, while murmuring "ramen…" and started to drool. Kakashi checked up on the boy to see if he was alright, only to see him wake up while inspecting his wounds. "AAAAAHHHH! KAKASHI-SENSEI! YOU PERVERT! DON'T TOUCH ME!" Naruto exclaimed while jumping away against the cave wall. WHACK! "You IDIOT! You WANT them to find us in here?" Sakura semi-whispered.

"…" As realization crept up to Sakura, she wide-eyed while stuttering "H-h-how i-is that p-p-possible..? Y-you w-were d-d-d- … I thought you were dead!".

"Hng?" was Naruto's intelligent comeback. "What are you talking about, Sakura-chan? I'm perfectly okay! What happened to Sasuke? He looks worse than the Old Man after a nose-bleed."

Sakura returned to Sasuke's side to replace the bandages where blood was starting to get though without responding to Naruto.

"Ne, ne, Kakashi-sensei, what happened to him? Why are we here? Can we get some Ramen? I'm starving…" At the last question Naruto turned to look around for some instant-ramen packs. Kakashi just sweat-dropped at the last question while being relieved knowing that Naruto would probably the ONLY shinobi who would think about ramen in a situation like this. Meanwhile…

"Oh, good, at least the brat didn't get me killed. Sheesh, that damn tree got me off-guard! How the hell was that possible? When I get out of here, I'ma SKIN HIM ALIVE and use his skin as a damn HEAD ORNAMENT!" Kyuubi wasn't very happy with having a tree mysteriously shoved up his place, which disappeared just as mysteriously as it appeared.

"My, my! Could you please stop making so much noise? I'm having quite the headache here…"."WHO DARES TO SPEAK LIKE THAT TO THE ALMIGHTY KYUUBI-SAMA? SHOW YOURSELF, IGNORANT FOOL!" "That's not possible!" "WHAT? YOU DARE TO DEFY MY WORD? I WILL SLICE YOU UP IN A MILLION PIECES!" Kyuubi bashes both klaws against the seal gates creating a small earthquake. The only reply that came after a deafening silence was: "I don't think I like you very much. You should show respect to the Queen of Demons, known as Kyuubi-hime! I don't appreciate you using my name with such an attitude!" Kyuubi-hime walked to the seal gates and looked towards the source of loudness. Her eyes widened at what she saw and she started coughing, trying to regain her composure while suppressing a high-pitched outcry.

As Kyuubi didn't like the silence one bit, he yelled "DAMNIT, IGNORANT IMBECILE! ANSWER THE LORD OF DEMONS!" while moving towards the seal gates. He located the source of ignorance standing behind some seal gates of her own.

As word reached Konoha about the area 40 miles northeast of Konoha becoming a hotspot, the Hokage dispatched a squad of ANBU to check up and, if necessary, retrieve genin Team 7, since their mission would take them to a town near the hotspot. The ANBU squad found the team in a cave, relieved to see help for their wounded teammate. They brought them back to Konoha. Since Sasuke would be in the hospital for another week, team 7 was exempted from taking missions. Due to Kakashi's 'absence', Naruto decided to train himself at the training field where Team 7 usually gathers.

Kage Bunshin no Jutsu! exclaimed Naruto. 5 poofs were heard. When the smoke cleared, Naruto found 5 screaming chibi-Naruto's hanging onto his arms and legs, begging for ramen with loud voices and large puppy-eyes. "HEEEEHH! HOW'D I END UP IN KINDERGARTEN?" was the only reaction could think of in that situation…
