"PHRASES TOLD IN UNISON"
First… I want to thank you all. This has been my first well written Chapter Fan Fiction. I didn't expect so much reviewers. I hope you liked this story and that you'll like the ending. And stay tuned for my next stories! Let's answer to the reviews!
luvKaWaIi: No. The summary says NarutoX? and so on. I never said it was a "regular pairing" fic. Well, this is the last chapter.
Suddenly Naruto felt something into his arm. Mayumi felt it as well. Mister Kokugan had just launched two needles at them. In thirty seconds, they were both asleep, and Mister Kokugan was laughing even harder.
"Uhuhuhuh… Uhuhuhuh… Ahhhhahahahahah! Ahahahahahah!"
It's the duty of a ninja!
Final Chapter: The pieces
Naruto finally woke up from the slumber. He immediately noticed that he wasn't in the garden anymore. He was in a sort of prison. He had still his clothes on, but he was attacked to a wall with chains. In front of him, there was an altar. On the altar, the unconscious form of Mayumi, dressed only with a white tunic, her hair loose.
"What the…"
"Finally woken up, Naruto-san?"
"!"
From an angle of the room, appeared mister Kokugan. Still dressed as before. He was not wearing anymore his sunglasses. His eyes were of a creepy black colour. Naruto glared at him in anger. He tried to break free from the chains, but he couldn't use any chakra.
"Those chains cut the flow of chakra. It's impossible for you to do any jutsus."
"… What do you want with me, bastard?"
"Please, call me Rei. Only to take back what is rightfully mine, Naruto-san. Something that it's in your body."
"… So, you want the Kyuubi chakra?"
"No, Naruto-san. I want the Kyuubi itself."
"And why did you say that's it's rightfully yours?"
"Because it has been me who summoned the Kyuubi fourteen years ago."
"!"
Naruto stared in awe at the man in front of him. He, that dandy looking guy, had summoned Kyuubi and almost destroyed Konoha?
"You… You summoned Kyuubi?"
"Yeah… Well, to tell you the truth, I created it. Once a fox dies, he turns into a spirit, and after one hundred years from their death they add a tail, at two hundred two, and so on, till nine tails. But they're only pranksters, not demons. But using my arcane magic, which my family uses from generations, I managed to trap one of them and to make him a powerful demon, which I could command with my will. But your Yondaime was a hell of a pain in the ass… He sealed Kyuubi inside you. And now I'll be finally able to revive it."
"You're a fool!"
"Yeah… A fool who'll rule the world. Now, wait here, Naruto-san. I'm going to retrieve what I need for the ritual. And don't try to wake up Mayumi. You're quite resistant, but the poison will affect her for another half-hour."
And then, he disappeared into a cloud of green smoke. Naruto continued to try to focus his chakra, but… Nothing. Those chains really stopped his flow.
'Then I must break them with my muscle power only… Damn. This will take time.'
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the meanwhile, in the garden, the other guys were searching for Naruto and Mayumi. Kaori had a worried expression on her face.
"Goddamn. Where are those two?"
"I hope they're ok…"
'… I felt for sure the strange chakra of Naruto… The Kyuubi chakra. What happened? Naruto for sure had used it to fight… I hope he hasn't attacked Mayumi…'
"I bet… I BET THEY'RE HIDING SOMEWHERE MAKING OUT! THAT BITCH OF MAYUMI! HOW COULD SHE…"
"Calm down, Kaori… ' I'm sure Mayumi will never…"
"Oh, that's right. Because she's unconscious, at the moment."
"!"
All of the six teens turned to see who talked. It was no other than Mister Kokugan. He was smirking mischievously, seated on a branch of a tree.
"… And you are?"
"Fa… Father…"
"What! This is you father!"
"… You said that Mayumi is unconscious at the moment… And I suppose Naruto as well…"
"Correct."
"… And I bet it's you who knocked them unconscious."
"… I hate clever guys like you… It makes me want to kill them."
Mister Kokugan took out of his pocket a strange stone, coloured of red and orange. It seemed like shining in the darkness of the night.
'What is that? It's strange…'
"Ahhh… Ahhhh!"
"! Kaori-san! What's happening!"
"My… My head…"
"Mine as well… What's happening? Ahhh!"
"Megumi! Yukiko!"
"Girls… Kill them."
"What?"
Then, suddenly, the three girls stopped screaming. They rose from the floor, and turned to the three boys. Sasuke, Neji and Shikamaru froze. The girls had strange eyes. They were bloody red, and had slits. Almost identical…
'Almost identical to Naruto when he transforms!'
"! Sasuke! Watch out!"
"!"
Suddenly Kaori rushed at Sasuke at inhuman speed, and kicked him into the stomach. But behind was waiting Megumi, which grabbed one of his legs and launched him towards the other two guys. In the meanwhile, Yukiko punched the floor, which crumbled till the place where stood Shikamaru and Neji. They lost balance, and Sasuke hit them.
"Ouff…"
"How could they…"
"Finish them."
The girls surrounded the shinobis, forming a triangle around them. Then they raised hands and pointed them forward the three guys. Suddenly, red sphere of chakra started to form in their palms.
"!"
"Inferno Triangle no Jutsu."
They launched the spheres together, which hit the ground, an blazed the three shinobi. After thirty seconds, there was nothing else that ashes and an enormous crater where before stood the three shinobis.
"Very good, girls. Now, follow me. It's time to achieve the fruits of our fatigues."
Mister Kokugan began walking towards the mansion, followed by the three girls. When they disappeared, the three shinobi moved the three branch where they were hiding, and looked around.
"Powerful…"
"What happened? It seemed like that strange stone controlled them… And gave them also great powers."
"Right… We got caught by surprises, but… Sasuke, use the mobile-phone to call for help. In the meanwhile, we'll follow them."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Naruto, in half an hour, managed to loosen the chains. They were almost to break. They needed only one more pull at full power… But then, Mister Kokugan came back, along with Kaori, Megumi and Yukiko. Naruto, at first, wanted to call for their help, but something caught his mind… Their eyes. Their eyes were red. They seemed so much like… His ones when he used Kyuubi chakra. He had to wait for the proper moment to free himself and save the girls.
"… You're back…"
"You can see it by yourself, right? Well… Now we can start the ritual."
"Didn't you say that you needed to retrieve some 'pieces'?"
"Uhuhuh… Naruto-kun, they're right in front of you."
"?"
Naruto looked around, but not noticed anything strange or different from before… The girls. Before there were only him, Mayumi and Rei in the room. Now there were three more people. Naruto immediately got angry.
"You bastard! You need human sacrifice for the ritual, uh! You're going to sacrifice all of them!"
"Half correct, Naruto-san. But Mayumi is the only one who is going to be sacrificed."
"And what for the other girls?"
"I'll reunite them."
"? Re… Reunite them?"
"… Uhuhuhuhuh… Ahahahahah! Ahhhhahahahah!"
"STOP LAUGHING AND TELL WHAT THE FUCK MEANS TO REUNITE THEM!"
In the meanwhile, the sleep spell lost his effect on Mayumi as well. She woke up to see Naruto tied to the wall, his father laughing like a mad, and her sisters with red eyes.
"What… What's the meaning of this?"
"Ah, you're awake as well, Mayumi. Very well. I'll explain this."
"…"
"Do you know what your Yondaime did, right?"
"Of course… He sealed Kyuubi inside Naruto-san. So what?"
"Well, it's not completely right. He managed to seal only a part of it. The chakra and the mind."
"?"
"The Kyuubi was not only pure spirit, of else it couldn't slaughter an entire village. It had a body, of course. Your Yondaime sealed the chakra and the mind of Kyuubi, the soul. But what about the body?"
"…"
Flashback
A younger Rei Kokugan was on his knees, screaming like an obsess, in a basement. He could see the Yondaime seal away his precious Kyuubi, his demon…
"Nonononono! Kyuubi was invincible! How could a filthy human… Hey. Wait a minute. He only sealed the soul… That means that I can save the rest of it! Yes… If I seal the remaining pieces of his body, one day I'll be able to revive it… Yes! Arcane Arts! I summon you! Save what's its vanishing! Save what I need!"
In front of Rei started to form three globs of light, each one then taking human form. In front of him stood in a few minutes three babies, all females.
End of the flashback
"… You mean…"
"Yes… Those girls are nothing other that the Kyuubi! Yukiko, the tails! Megumi, the body! And Kaori, the head! When I'll reunite them to the soul sealed away in you, I will revive Kyuubi! And no one will stop us, this time! I'll rule the world!"
"… What are you saying, bastard?"
"Uh?"
"What are you saying! Those girls aren't the filthy pieces of the body of a fucking demon! They're Kaori, Megumi and Yukiko! Girls, wake up from that slumber! I know you're inside there, somewhere!"
"… Ahahahahah! I understand your feelings, but it's useless! With my Demon Stone I control them and… Uh?"
Rei stared at the girls, noticing something strange. Then, he noticed something. Kaori had dropped a tear, and her eyes were trembling, half cerulean half red. And the other girls' eyes were trembling as well.
"… Na… Naru…"
"Right, Kaori! Keep pushing! I know you can do it!"
'How that's possible? The bond with this guy and his friends is so tight that… No! That's impossible! I created Kyuubi to follow my orders! There's no way that after all these years they got a personality of their own!' "You must obey my orders!"
"Ahhhhh!"
The Demon Stone glowed, and Kaori screamed again. Suddenly, her eyes were back to bloody red.
"… Eheheh… What I told you?"
"… There's one more thing that I don't understand."
"What, Mayumi-chan?"
"… Me… What am I! What am I to you! If you needed a simple sacrifice, why you took care of me all these years!"
"You? My dear, you're my natural daughter."
"Then… What about my mother! And why do you need me!"
"… You're going to die anyway, so I'll make you see."
Rei moved his hands, and a green light glowed from Mayumi's and Naruto's eyes, who seemed like in trance.
Flashback
"Why… Why are you doing this? I thought… I thought you loved me…"
"Of course I love you. That's why I'm giving you the honour to be the masterpiece of my greatest creation, the Kyuubi."
A woman, who seemed like a grow up version of Mayumi, was on the same altar where Mayumi was now. She was crying, while Rei moved his hands. Suddenly, an enormous fox with nine-tails appeared in front of them, high three meters.
"Frightening, right? And think that when it'll eat you, it'll become hundred meters higher."
"No, please… Don't do this… Who will take care of Mayumi? Our Mayumi? She's only three months old…"
"Don't worry… I'll take care of her… Personally. Now, Kyuubi…"
"Grrr…"
"Eat her."
End of the flashback
Mayumi and Naruto got out of the trance. Mayumi let a single tear fall from her right eye, then the tears became more and more, and in a few seconds, she was crying hard.
"I need you… Because that to reunite the Kyuubi I need the same blood. The blood of your mother family. And you're the only one alive."
"Sniff… Mother…"
"… YOU BASTARD! I'LL KILL YOU!"
"Yeah right, Naruto-san… Now let the ritual begin."
The three girls joined hands, and started to glow red, as well as Naruto. Rei was saying things in a strange language. Then suddenly an enormous red light enveloped the entire room. When Naruto got his sight back, the girls were no more into the room. At their place, stood an enormous fox with nine tails, three meters high.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
"Now, it remains only one thing to do… Kyuubi…"
"Goukakkyu no Jutsu!"
"!"
From behind the door of the basement, erupted an enormous flame. Rei dodged jumping to the left. Two figures entered the room, and set Mayumi free from her chains.
"Neji-san… Shikamaru-san…"
"Good work, guys! But a bit too late!"
Naruto pulled one more time, and broke free from his chains. He started to form a Rasengan in his right hand, and rushed at Rei. Rei noticed the thing, and launched a green ray of light at him, but Naruto dodged and hit first the Demon Stone, destroying it, and then Rei him self, killing him in the process. After thirty seconds, in the room was nothing more than silence.
"I said I'd kill you, bastard…"
"… Naruto…"
"!"
"We still have a problem…"
Naruto turned around, and there stood the enormous fox, grinning its teeth, growling and looking at them with red angry eyes.
"Kaori-chan… Girls… Please, I know you're inside there…"
"Grrrraur!"
"!"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If one was a mile away from the island where the fact was happening, he could now see an enormous explosion of red light, which made all the island ground zero, and the sky black cloudy. On it stood now only an enormous fox, and a group of teens protected by a red ball of red chakra, emanated by a blonde boy enveloped by the same chakra, with the shape of a fox with nine tails.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Naruto looked in front of him. There was the foxes, with bloodthirsty eyes. He them made a decision.
"Guys, take Mayumi away and run."
"And you?"
"I will turn back the girls to their previous forms. But I can't assure that you'll be safe. So…"
"… Naruto…"
"…"
"Don't do anything stupid like sacrificing yourself for them."
"! Naruto-san!"
Sasuke, Shikamaru, Neji and "knocked unconscious by Sasuke" Mayumi rushed towards the shore. Then Sasuke took Mayumi and started walking on the water, while she was struggling to go back. Naruto looked into the eyes of the fox in front of him. There was nothing more of human, into them. He began to focus the chakra into his right hand. An enormous Rasengan, large at least three meters, popped up. The fox, in the meanwhile, focused red energy into his mouth, into a ball. While Naruto rushed at the fox, the fox launched a ray of red energy towards him. The two techniques connected. While Naruto pushed hard, he noticed something. The eyes of the fox had turned cerulean. Then, he wasn't anymore into the same place. He was in a totally blank space. He turned around, but he couldn't see anything. Then, suddenly, he felt a pair of soft, round things that he knew too well, and a pair of hands which covered his eyes.
"Kaori…"
Smiling, Naruto said the name of the blonde girl. He then turned, and felt her lips on his. They were kissing. For the second time, even if they didn't know. The girl broke the kiss after a few seconds, and then smiled at Naruto, who smiled back at her.
"I knew it was you…"
"You remember my chest so well, Naruto-kun?"
"Maybe…"
"…"
"… Where are Yukiko and Megumi?"
"They have already… Passed on. I'm the head, so I'm the only one left."
"No. You're not the head."
"I know… I meant that the head was sealed inside me. We were created to contain the pieces, not out of it."
"I already knew… Now, you're ready to turn back to normal?"
"… That's impossible…"
"Eh?"
"I have not enough energy to turn back to normal… And if you give me yours, you'll die."
"But… But we have time! You can control the fox, right! With time, we…"
"I'm not in control of it, Naruto-kun… Not for long. I only have this chance to solve things. That's why you have to absorb me."
"What?"
"I'll be sealed inside you as well, Naruto-kun… I'll die, but all the pieces of the Kyuubi will reunite inside you, and with time you'll absorb it all, so you'll rid the world of this menace."
"But…"
"Please, Naruto-kun… Don't say anything more… And there's someone that you care about more than me… I already know…"
"… I…"
Note: Guys, I have a surprise for you. Two surprises. I've prepare two endings, one for each girl. Different the girl, different the ending. What will do Naruto in each one? Discover it.
Ending1: Kaori
"… I… That's not true!"
"Uh?" 'Naruto-kun…'
"Yes… I fell something for Mayumi, but… I only like her! I love you, Kaori-chan! Only you!"
"But… Naruto-kun… You have friends… And dreams… I can't…"
"My dream doesn't matter! I've already given up on it! And I don't want to get separated by you!"
"Na… Naruto-kun!"
Kaori hugged tightly Naruto, crying hardly. Naruto embraced her back. He wanted to cry as well, but restrained himself, and only a single tear flowed out of his eyes.
"Sniff… You… You made me happy, you know?"
"I know…"
"But… There's no other choice… I'm already…"
"Yes, we don't have enough energy to save the both of us… But…"
"…"
"But to be reborn…"
"! Reborn?"
"Yes. We'll start again. A new life, in another place."
"But… We'll remember of each other?"
"I don't know… But I'm sure of one thing. Wherever we'll be, wherever we'll reborn… We'll meet again, and… And we'll be together one more time. We are tied by something even deeper than love… I can feel it."
"… Thanks… Naruto-kun…"
"… Now, let's go…"
Red chakra started to flow from under both the teens, who continued to embrace with each other, exchanging an eternal promise with each other. The red chakra soon enveloped them, warm and pleasant… Like love.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sasuke noticed something. Another explosion of light. This time is white, and the clouds which have gathered before disappeared, revealing the sky, full of stars. Sasuke handed over Mayumi to Shikamaru, and headed for the island one more time. When he reached the place where the battle was taking place, he found nothing more than Naruto's forehead protector, and a tail of warm orange fur, one on the other, almost like they were embracing. Sasuke stared at the two objects for at least five minutes. Then he picked up the two objects, and after staring at them for other few minutes, he looked up at the sky, just in time to see two falling stars heading west.
"… You damn baka…"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In a house of the Hidden Village of Stone, two families are celebrating a joyful event. The two families had been friends since childhood, and they decided to be neighbours. And even Kami-sama helped. The two women have given birth to their babies in the same night. Now they are into a house of one of the families, each woman embracing his baby.
"It's beautiful… Sorry, he's beautiful."
"Right. But she is a beautiful being too."
"Did you notice? They have both cerulean eyes… And blonde hair."
"I think they'll get along well…"
"They could even get married. Ahahah!"
"Well… What about the name?"
"Well… I thought… I think Naruto will suit him. As for her?"
"We decided for Kaori."
"Well… Then, Naruto, now it's time to sleep with your little friend Kaori."
The two women place the two babies in a cradle. The two babies, moving in sleep, touched hands, and they both giggled.
The end
Ending2: Mayumi
"… I… I understand, Kaori-chan…"
"… I knew it… Please, make happy my sister."
Saying that, Kaori started to vanish. Naruto, crying, tried to touch her hand one last time, but he didn't succeed. He fell on his knees, crying even harder. While the whole white of the place was like being absorbed by his body.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sasuke noticed something. Another explosion of light. This time is white, and the clouds which have gathered before disappeared, revealing the sky, full of stars. Sasuke handed over Mayumi to Shikamaru, and headed for the island one more time. When he reached the place where the battle was taking place, he found Naruto, shirtless. He had a strange seal on his stomach. He wasn't the same seal that he saw that time in the Forest of Death. This one seemed more like a flower than a spiral. Naruto touched his new seal with the hand, than a tear flew out of his right eye, and he looked up at the sky.
"… Goodbye… Kaori-chan…"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mayumi awakened from his slumber, finally. He was on the shore of another island. He rose from the floor, and started looking around. He saw only Neji and Shikamaru.
"Where… Where is Naruto-san?"
"… Look over there."
Mayumi looked at the sea. Naruto and Sasuke were walking on the water, slowly. They reached the shore, and when Naruto saw Mayumi awake, he smiled warmly. Mayumi bit her lower lip, and started to cry. She then rushed to Naruto, embracing him at the neck, in tears.
"Naruto-san… I… I…"
"… I know…"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"GO AWAY!"
"Ahhhh!"
An angry young man, with long spiky blond hair is shouting at a bunch of reporter to go away, in front of an hospital. Then he makes an hand-seal and disappears. He reappears in front of an hospital room. He openes the door. In an hospital bed there's a woman, reading a book. She has long silk black hair. She notices that her husband had opened the door, and greets her with a warm smile.
"What's with that face?"
"Another reporter assault… They want to know something about the "Kokugan Heir"… Damn! I married you, but nobody still knows the name of the Uzumaki…"
"Well… The one who holds the money it's me, not you. You're only an ex-ninja who now holds a financial empire along with the wife."
"Hey! What do you mean with only! I retired as a special Jonin, remember! And… Uh?"
Suddenly, the door opens. A nurse walks in, with a baby enveloped by a towel in her arms.
"Look who is here…"
"Ohhh…Give me, give me…"
The nurse places the baby in the arms of her mother, and then goes out. The mother looks at her baby, smiling.
"Look. Look what you did."
"What we did. It's a she, right?"
"Yeah…"
"Then… The name we decided it's still the same?"
"Yeah…"
"Ok. That's good. Come here, Kaori-chan. I'm your daddy."

Well… What I can say… Now I need to convince you to keep me on your author alert/favourites! hoW! Hehehehe… Here's a piece of the first chapter of my next fic! The title? The bunshin scroll! Stay tuned!
The bunshin scroll
Prologue: The merchant
"This makes three thousand, Naruto! NO! I'll not go out with you!"
Naruto had just get dropped down by Sakura one more time. The girl shouted at him, bumped him on the head, and leaved to bore Sasuke. Naruto was almost to leave, then something bounced to his mind. Why. Why he was rejected like that? Why he was always dropped down by Sakura-chan and no female being on the world even looked at him? With this thoughts in mind, Naruto headed for his favourite place, the Ichiraku ramen. He ordered a large portion of Miso Ramen, and started eating slowly. The old owner noticed the mood of his best customer.
"What's up, Naruto-kun?"
"… Well… You see… Sakura-chan…"
"Ayame! Naruto has a problem with girls!"
"°°"
The old man disappeared and his beautiful daughter pooped up, smiling.
"What's the matter, Naruto-kun?"
"… That's… It seems that girls don't even notices that I exist…"
"It seems strange to me… You're so cute!"
"Thanks… But seems that being cute isn't all. And in the meanwhile, Sasuke-teme has his fanc-club and Sakura-chan."
"Well… What differs your friend Sasuke from you?"
"Well… He's not forced to act like an idiot to get the others to notice him… That because he's the elite Uchiha and cool…"
"Well, then, that's obvious. First: You should stop acting like an idiot. It's not so difficult, right?"
"Hem…"
"RIGHT!"
"Right."
"Very well. Second: If the girls of your ages falls for strong people, become stronger. That's simple. What do you say?"
"… You're right, Ayame-chan! I'm going to train right… Hem, after Ramen. First Ramen, then girls."
"Lesson number one, Naruto-kun. Girls don't like when you prefer something else to them. Ihihih…"
After twenty bowls of Ramen, Naruto paid the bill and get lost. He had only a thing in mind: becoming stronger. But… How? Ero-Sannin was too busy with his researches… Kakashi-sensei only taught Sasuke… No wonder he wasn't getting any stronger. But he couldn't wait for them forever. He should get stronger by himself. When he was walking, he noticed something. A strange man, dressed with a brown cloak and a straw hat, was standing seated at the side of carriage. On the carriage stood a sing-board: "Kitsuki: All for ninjas! Marvellous scrolls for cheap!". Naruto walked to him. It was a beginning, after all.
"Hello?"
"Ah! A customer! How can I help you?"
"Well… I need to get stronger… I want a scroll with strong jutsus."
"No problem! We have this one! He contains all the Suiton Jutsus of the Mist Country! It's only 999,9 ryo! Or this one with Raiton Jutsus! It's 1499,9…"
"STOP! I only have 700 ryo!"
"Uhmmm… I understand… Well, there's something particular you wish?"
"Well… Maybe something I'm good at…" 'What's my strongest jutsu? The Rasengan and the Summoning jutsu, of course… But I learned them with fatigue… The Kage Bunshin! I'm good at Bushins! I learned it in a night!' "Do you have something involving bunshins?"
"Ohhh! I have the scroll that suits you perfectly!"
The man rustled into his carriage, and took out a scroll. The scroll was one meter long and twenty cm large. It was completely brown, and was closed by a wax seal, with on the kanji of "Shadow".
"The Bunshin scroll!"
"The Bunshin scroll?"
"This fabulous scroll contains all the bunshins of the world! But today most ninjas prefer powerful elemental jutsus, or ones with big names like 'Clean my bathroom neat and fresh no jutsu!', even if they're useless… That's why it's so cheap. I'm sure you'll make good use of it. It's 500 ryo."
"Thanks! Here you are!"
Naruto handed over to Kitsuki the money, and rushed off to the training ground, to try the new jutsus. Kitsuki was moving his carriage, thinking that maybe there were still true ninjas in this world. Naruto arrived at the training ground in ten minutes. He removed the wax seal, and started to read the scroll. The first jutsu was obviously the normal Bunshin no Jutsu. Then there was Mizu Bunshin, Suna Bunshin, Tsuchi Bunshin… The Kage Bunshin was the tenth of the list. Naruto quickly jumped to the last jutsu of the list. Its name was "Real Bunshin no Jutsu."
"This jutsu creates four perfect copies of the owner, which not disappear till they get killed. They have the same stamina of the owner. Cool! So it really creates four real me! Only me can destroy them! Caution: we recommend to perfect all the other bunshin, before trying to perform this, or unforeseeable side-effects will take place. Side-effects my ass! Let's see… Boar, Monkey…"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the meanwhile, in the near training ground, all the genins were gathered… Well, almost all. Naruto was obviously missing, because he forgot about the meeting. Also the Jonins were there. In fact, they were going to discuss something very important: the incoming Konoha dance.
"You know, now you're fourteen, and you must take part to this event as well. So, each girl will choose a boy to be his escort, and we'll be the judges. Ok?"
"I WANT SASUKE-KUN!"
"NO! SASUKE-KUN IT'S MINE!"
"Hmph…"
"Sakura-san! Would you like to…"
"So troublesome… And Naruto-baka isn't here."
"Tsk. That's right. Well, I don't think a single girl would choose Naruto, so…"
"Pssst. Kakashi. You're forgetting a very shy Hyuga heiress…"
"Ops! You're right, Kurenai! Hey. Anyone has seen…"
Suddenly, an enormous explosion blew up from the near training ground, and all the ninjas took off and landed a few meters away, because of the explosion.
"… Naruto… I bet it's Naruto."
"Let's see. I hope he didn't get hurt himself too bad…"
All the ninjas rushed to the near training ground, moving bushes and branch out of their way. One of them bounced right into the face of Shikamaru, but it didn't matter. All they wanted was to see what had been of Naruto. The first one to move the final bush was Kakashi.
"Naruto, could you please… Ex… Plain…"
"Na… Naruto…"
"What the…"
"Hn? What do you want, Hatake-san?"
STAY TUNED!
