Chapter four: Uzumaki
Naruto's neck was bleeding so bad that he started to feel light headed and the room started to spin around him. He slouched down the wall he was leaning against and sat down but the room kept spinning around him. Then his head felt even lighter and he passed out from the extensive bleeding. Josephine knew that she had to do something but what? She was after all bed ridden. She lifted herselfup to a sitting stance.Barley managing sitting up she knew she wouldn't be able to stand up fully so she decided to try and crawl towards her beloved Uzumaki. She shifted her body to ware she could then crawl huffing and puffing out of breath, towards the one she loved. When she was then sitting right next to Naruto she tilted his head and saw that the bleeding was so bad that if she didn't stop it soon Naruto would bleed to death. She thought back to the emergency aid class she had token only a year ago she remembered the class about what to do when a person is bleedin extensively. She remembered learning that you must put gauze tightly around the wound and then apply pressure to the wound it's self. One problem the only gauze in the room was the gauze around her ribs to keep the broken rib in place and she knew that taking of this gauze would result to re breaking her rib and it may even re puncture her lung. But she didn't care Uzumaki meant the world to her he was like her only family. She loved him and he needed her so she took the gauze off she felt and heard the cracking ribs break. But this time it was pooking into her skin.She let out an agonizing grunt and then got to work on Naruto. She was applying pressure to Naruto's neck when his eyes flickered open. He looked at her questionably.
"Destiny?" Naruto asked.
"Uzumaki!" Josephine yelled and then wrapped him up in a big bear hug.
"Destiny you're hurting me."
"Sorry." Josephine said barley managing to sit up.
"What happened?"
"Your wound on your neck started bleeding and you passed out from the lack of blood to the brain. Which amazingly means that you do have a brain unfortunately it's very small."
"Stop Destiny it's not funny right now."
"Alright any who we need to take ourselves to the hospital."
"Why do you need to go to the hospital?"
"Because the gauze you are wearing was the gauze that was holding my rib in place."
"Destiny why did you use that gauze?"
"Oh and what gauze do you think I should use the imaginary kind?"
"No the kind that comes from the first aid box in that cupboard."
"Are you serious?"
"No I'm being sarcastic."
"UZUMAKI! You could have told me that when I moved in."
"Sorry I guess I forgot after all my brain is small." Naruto said trying to get her to laugh but only managing to get her to look more serious. She was so cute when she was serious she had the perfect serious face for it. Naruto started to laugh at her cute face.
"What are you laughing at?" Josephine asked.
"I'm sorry your facial expression was just so cute." Naruto answered at that point Josephine's dog Buddy jumped up onto Naruto's shoulder and then tore the gauze off of Naruto' s neck with his sharp little teeth.
"What the hell is your dog doing!" Naruto asked in alarm.
"I think he's going to heal your wound." But when the dog tore off the bandages Naruto's cut was already healing.
"Kid, you better thank me for this later." Kyuubi the nine tailed fox said in Naruto's head.
"Why would I thank the damn fox that ruined my life?" Naruto thought back.
"Don't blame your fucked up life on me kid."
"Oh but I do."
"Get over it you damn human."
"Thanks to you I'm not human."
"I thought you'd never say thanks to me."
"I didn't and I never will."
"Fine, be that way you little shit."
"Don't call me that or I'll kill my self and you'll go with me."
"Don't call me that," " ever since that girl came around you've turned into a fucking pussy."
"Don't bring Destiny into this."
"Oh is that her name?"
"No I'd never tell you her real name she's to great to me."
"And let me guess you love her and all that fucked up shit."
"Yes I do."
"You've got to be joking kid."
"No I do, I really do love her."
"Damn humans always so vulnerable."
"Damn demons always so cold hearted."
"Shut up kid and listen."
"Don't call me kid."
"I can and I will now shut the fuck up and listen."
"Okay fine."
"She's going to hurt you."
"No because she loves me to."
Naruto was sitting there with his hand on his head and his eyes closed like he had a bad head ache or something. His neck was fully healed because of the Kyuubi demon fox but other wise he did have a head ache and its name was Kyuubi.
"Are you all right Uzumaki?" Josephine asked Naruto. Naruto looked up with a smile like he knew all the answers in the world or something.
"Yes I'm fine Destiny."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah I just have a head ache that's all. Now let's take you to the hospital."
"No I'll just figure out how to help my self."
"You aren't serious."
"Yes I am, I know my self better than any body, and I refuse to go back to the dreadful doctors."
"But that's dangerous to your health Kakashi won't stand for it and neither will I."
"If you love me you will." Josephine said back to Naruto as she popped her rib back into place with a loud crack. And then wrapped some gauze she had just gotten from the cupboard, tightly around her rib. This weakened Josephine so much she dropped to her knees with one of her agonizing grunts. Just before she hit the ground Naruto caught her.
"Thanks Uzumaki." Josephine said weakly.
"Don't thank me."
"Have I ever told you I loved you?"
"Yes many times Destiny, many times."
"Good." Josephine said as she drifted off to sleep in his arms. Naruto laid her onto the bed on the floor. He wished he could make the bed more comfortable for her but it was the way every body in the region slept. What could he possibly do? He kissed her on the cheek and whispered, I love you to Destiny, in her ear then he went and sat down on the stool next to her bed. He looked at her face, she was smiling. He hoped she was having a good dream one of a happier world with happier people and a world in which she was happier. That seemed to be all Naruto wanted any more was her happiness.
"Damn mankind for inventing the word love." The voice inside Naruto's head said toNaruto.
"Stop being such a bastard Kyuubi." Naruto thought to the voice.
"Damn kid"
"Damn demon fox always ruing my life."
"I'm ruing your life, more of your ruing mine."
"Oh and how would that be?"
"Kid, I'm forever damned in side of a fucked up kid. How do you think that makes me feel?"
"KID!"
"Yes like I said a fucked up kid."
"I HATE YOU!"
"To bad because guess what I LIVE INSIDE OF YOU!"
"Well maybe I should have you detached from my ass!"
"Good luck finding the Hokage that forever damned me with you!"
"Well if bugs you that much then maybe I won't!"
"Fine, be that way you short imbecile!"
"SHORT!"
"You heard me you dope!"
"THAT'S IT BASTARD! YOU'RE GOING DOWN!"
"Good luck getting to me you fucking ass hole!"
"I can always kill my self, you do know this right?"
"You wouldn't dare with this so called Destiny still around."
"Oh yes I would!"
"In your dreams loser!"
"UGH! I'm so shutting you out right now!"
"DDDDDDUUUUUUNNNNNCCCCCCEEEEEEE!" Kyuubi yelled as Naruto shut him out of his mind. Glad that's over, Naruto thought to himself. His head ache was starting to clear up and his mind came out of the fog. He then turned his attention over to his Destiny; she still had that smile plastered onto her face which apparently was rare for him to see. He loved seeing her smile it meant the world to Naruto. He wondered what she was dreaming about…
"Mom guess what I'm a graduate!"
"Yes, Joi, I heard and I'm so proud of you honey."
"Thanks mom!"
"Hurry and go tell your father I didn't tell him so you could."
"Ok! Thanks mom!" Josephine said to her mother as she ran to tell her father.
"DAD! Guess what!"
"What Joi, what?"
"JOI! I'M SO PROUD OF YOU!" Josephine's dad yelled as he wrapped her up in a big bear hug.
"I graduated!"
"Dad don't kill me!" Josephine yelled when she heard her bones crack from the intensity of the hug.
"Sorry I'm just so proud of you Joi!" Her dad said as he let her go.
"Good then I'll see you at the graduation ceremony and not at work, right?"
"Of course baby I wouldn't miss it for the world."
"Promise?"
"Yeah Joi I promise."
"Good! Now I'm going to go skate ok." Josephine said to her father while patting the tip of the skateboard with her hand.
"Don't stay out later than nine Joi."
"Okay dad. Later!"
"Bye."
After skating for a while Josephine decided to come home. By the time she got there it was ten o'clock. Her dad was going to kill her he specifically said nine. Oh well, she thought, he can only ground me. She opened the front door and walked over to her mom and dad's room. They were arguing over something. At first she thought who cares but then she heard, "Our daughter is a monster what shall we do?" Kiona Josephine's mother asked Kino Josephine's father.
"We must kill her!" Kino answered with a blank expression.
"Why…what are you talking about we can't kill our own daughter!"
"We have to the town found out and there's a decree that all of them must be killed. I'm sorry Kiona I must." Kino answered, hearing this Josephine ran out side into the city crying. Her parents were going to kill her! But why do they want to kill me? Josephine wondered over and over…
Naruto was still staring at Josephine when her smile faded and tears started to stream down her face. She started breathing heavily and sweating heavily…
Josephine hopped onto her skate board and started down the street. She got out of the city and went and sat on the river bank in the woods. She remembered her parents taking her there when she was five. She remembered them all deciding to name it Zorjo River after her older brother and herself. When she was done making up her mind she knew what she had to do. She skated home.
When she was finally got home she walked up to the door and opened it. Only to let out a bloodcurdling scream because there lying on the floor were her parents, they were dead. After calming down Josephine looked up and saw her brother with blood on his hands and face…
Josephine's eyes thrust open as tears ran down her face and she was panting. She sat up and put her head into her hands. Naruto walked up and gave her a hug.
"What's wrong Destiny?"
"I had a nightmare… a flash back of when my parents tried to kill me."
"Oh Destiny I'm so sorry." Josephine sat there embraced in his arms as she cried. About an hour later Josephine fell a sleep in her sorrow still embraced in Naruto's muscular arms. It was around nine o'clock now and Naruto grew tired so he leaned back and lay down onto the bed on the floor, Josephine coming with him, still in his arms.
