The Fox Came Back –

As the morning sun raise into the sky, a young man stood in a darkened dojo concentrating deeply. All of a sudden dozens of blades swung down from the ceiling towards the young man. However the blades stopped a few feet from the man's body as they struck an invisible barrier. Dark blue and red tendrils of chi wrapped itself around the young man's body slithering like a pair of snakes. As the man raised his right hand above his head, the tendrils were absorbed into his palm. Holding his hand out in front of his body, he concentrated even more causing flames of dark blue to erupt from his hand. With a shout, he released an enormous beam of fire towards titanium wall. When the beam died down, the wall had melted into nothingness so had the wall behind the titanium wall and the trees behind the walls.

A door open letting in a blinding light as a woman dress as a cowgirl walks into the room. She's a redhead with a well developed body showed by the small yellow tank top she's wearing. A blue min skirt and long orange boots and a belt holstering a small revolver, completed her outfit. "Hey Naruto we been waiting for you."

"Meg," the man said to the redhead. Wearing a distinctive small tight fitting black jacket with its collar trimmed in white/silver fur, that's open and length didn't make it pass his waist. Underneath it he wore a black shirt, baggy pants, knee-high boots and wearing three belts, two around his waist holding bullets the third hanging on his left shoulder. His outfit helped to enhance his lean and fit body. His spiky blond hair was as wild as an open flame. Two fox ears poked out from beneath the mass of hair, nine long fox tails tailed behind him. He has a handsome masculine face with three whisker-like marks on each check, but his face and eyes made anyone who first sees him to back away. There's a slow burning fire in his eyes that once unleash would burn everything in its path.

"Come on Naruto we've been waiting for you to finish up," Meg huffed, "So grab that sword of yours and let's go. Why you use that kind of sword I'll never know." She shakes her head leaving him in the training room.

Reaching for his sword place on a mantel, he looks it over before placing it on its holster belt on his back. His sword is a Gunblade, is a sword with a pistol or revolver embedded into the blade. The layout of such a weapon differs from a rifle with a bayonet in that the edged component has an integral barrel, rather than being attached to the end of the barrel. The gunblade does not fire projectiles, despite its name. Triggering a round in the gun chamber sends a shockwave through the blade, increasing the damage potential to whatever the blade strikes at that moment. This enhanced strike requires perfect timing by the user, making this weapon difficult to master and use effectively.

He walks silently out of the room. It's been six years since he came to this place, this fortress that's being used as an outpost to protect the Eastern lands ruled by Top Hat. To the East lay the great rift that separates the peaceful lands of Top's from the monster filled lands. When Top first came to this world it was a land where monsters like the ones found in magic base worlds like where the dreaded redheaded Dragon Spooker lives. So she chosen a large piece of land where it was easily defended from attack, her lands are protected by mountains to the North and South, to the West the ocean. Having cleared the land of the most dangers monsters from her new land Top had the fortress built to stop the monsters from the Eastern lands from pouring into her lands. The fort was position at the Western end of the only bridge that connects the Western and Eastern side of the continent. The fort sat on a hill overlooking the layout of the bridge. A massive gate walled around the end of the bridge combined with bunkers made it hard for any of the monsters from the West from getting into the Eastern lands.

Behind the fort, while the front was built to defend a town had popped up. The lands to the East maybe dangerous to enter but a lot of goods could be found in the Western lands. And a few brave women would venture out to come back with tales and whatever they manage to find while they journey through the monster filled lands. They're usually were sent out to gather ingredients for spells or potions that could only be found in the Western lands. Then there were the adventurers that would go out for months or even years at a time exploring the Western lands before returning with tales of their encounters in the distance lands.

Besides his master Faceless, Jeffro who lives at Top's castle, and when Top's brothers came to visit he was the only guy in this place. Which is the reason why there were so many young women had signed up to be station at the fort. Aside from an occasional caravan bringing supplies to the few outposts in the Eastern lands, and the occasional group of monsters attack trying to break through the gates, the days were endlessly repetitive. But having a handsome male half-demon in charge of the fortress made up for the seer amount of boredom that plagued the female guard's station there. Ever since Faceless told the women when they first got here that since he doesn't need to eat or sleep that his body is completely blank underneath his clothes as his body is just like his featureless face. (1) He explains that he had gotten rid of his manhood because he seen people letting their lust get the better of them, so he gotten rid of the problem and now only lives to better himself in battle. That of course brought all of the women's attentions onto him instead.

"How was the new training room?" a silver short haired, red eyed young woman name Jo asked him. Jo carries around twin Desert Eagles and is known as 'The Angel from Hell'. Has superhuman abilities, usually followed by the appearance of a glowing tattoo on her left arm and shoulder blade. They resemble wings and are often called 'The Wings of the Devil'. She's dress in an open crotched biker pant with bikini bottoms and a black tank top. She's very, undeveloped in her body and is slender built making her look like a young girl instead of being 17.

"Maria and the others out did themselves in making it," Naruto said to Jo. She along with a group of girls were created in a lab to be come the ultimate soldiers until Dark Hat had gotten wind of that plan and destroy the group planning to take over that world. Jo while wondering around in a city of that world met Meg and the two became friends. When it came time for Jo to come to this world Meg came along with her, being together ever since. When Naruto came to the fort Top was there with Jo and the other girls from her world with her so that he'll have some kids around his age to grow up with that wouldn't hate him for being what he couldn't help of being.

"Glad that you like it," she said as she walks along with him.

"What does Faceless want?" Naruto ask.

"He's not here," Jo replied smiling which is very odd for her, "He's doing something in another world right now."

"Then why are we?" Naruto ask but then put the pieces together stopping at the door to the main hall. The doors flew open as Maria and Meg greeted him, behind them him the fort soldiers dress in very little sexy clothes were there starting up a party.

"Yup while he's away we're going party," Meg grins at Naruto, "So go and let loose and take it off!" The girls behind her all shouted for him to let loose and get some as all of them are ready to give. But to their shock Naruto turn around heading for the gate.

"Hey this party is for you. So come and enjoy it," Maria shouted to him.

"Go and enjoy it for me," Naruto said his voice empty of emotion, "Someone has too watch the gate."

They all sadly watch as the half fox demon left them to keep watch on the gate. Meg broke the silences, "Even after all of these years he's still not over the way he was treated back than."

"They treated him as a monster and created one," Maria said, "I have seen what he's like in battle. The fights with anger and hated in his heart, sooner or later he will become a monster."

"There's still time to save him," Jo said worried about her friend.

"We throw ourselves onto him all of the time and he hasn't even kissed any of us yet," one of the guards said.

"He never knew what love or caring really meant while growing up," Jo said, "We're just lucky that Dark freed us from that lab before we were turn into heartless killing machines."

"That village of his has a lot to pay for," Meg growls clutching her fist. The girls behind her all nodded in agreement.

In the village of Konoha –

It's been six years since Naruto died and in those years Hinata the once shy girl had change. She still wore the same style of outfit she had worn when she was younger but she's taller and her body has grown into womanhood. She let her hair grow reaching pass her shoulders, her body has filled out and was much stronger through intense training that she put her body through for the pass six years. Ever since Naruto's death at the hands of that faceless killer and learning the truth about the reason why the adults treated him like they did, she has change. While she does showed her old self to her close friends she has a bitter mask that she wears when dealing with the adults of the village, giving none of them any amount of respect towards them for treating Naruto for something he couldn't help of being.

It was time for the final exam before she and the rest of her old schoolmates became full-fledged Hidden Leaf ninjas. Even the Sand ninjas Gaara and his siblings Temari and Kankuro were here as well, as the exam is being held here again. Currently she's waiting for her match as Ino and Sakura were going head-to-head with each other. They were standing in the middle of the battle ground of a circular open-roof stadium. Thousands of people were sitting in the stands, watching the two of them intently, awaiting for either one of them to make the next move. From the looks of things this would take awhile as both of them are too hard headed to give up till the other goes down. But that wasn't in her mind as she's reflects on what could have been between her and Naruto. So many things could have been done and said but weren't, till the time for such things had past, like a fading dream.

"Hinata it's your turn now," Tenten said to her breaking her train of thought. She pointed over to the arena where both Sakura and Ino had knocked each other out, the referee called the fight a draw, "Just like during the first chunnin exams."

"Alright," Hinata said as she mentally prepared herself for the fight ahead as it would be against Gaara. Even with all of the training that she has done over the years, she knows that someone like Gaara was way out of her league in power and skill. But she wouldn't give up like this as she had vowed that day, that she'll become the next Hokage for Naruto, in his memory.

Once on the battle ground she waited for Gaara to step into the ring. The referee shouted out, "Gaara come to the arena or you will forfeit the match!"

From the stairwell going into the battleground Gaara suddenly appeared shocking everyone who saw him. His body and clothes were severely damage as if he was in a life or death battle that he lost. He slumped to the ground revealing a man standing behind him. The man causally walks down the stairs paying no mind to the hundreds of ninjas in the stands around him drawing their weapons. None of them ever saw anyone like him before, expect for one.

Hinata was shaking as she stares at the stranger as he walks down into the arena's battleground she tightens her hands into fists, as she feels the hatred that has built up inside of her for six years came to the surface. It's the same man. He's still wearing the light brown coat and tan colored pants, that he wore when she had seen him last. His face couldn't be seen thanks to the same skintight metal mask that covered his whole head. With no mouthpiece, no breathing holes or even eye holes on the mask, the same faceless face that haunted her darkest nightmares.

"You…" Hinata growls out as she glares at him as he stops a few feet away from her, "You're the one who kill Naruto!"

Everyone in the stadium were all shock when they heard Hinata shouted out at the man that beat Gaara the sand demon. Tsunade quickly motions the Anbu to take down the man that killed Naruto getting up from her seat as she's been waiting for this day for a long time. Kakashi, Jiraiya, and Iruka were already on the battleground along with the ninjas that are taking the final exam. The man quickly found himself surround by ninjas not just the Leaf but from the other villages that are here for the exams as well, but he didn't look worry at the least.

"Who are you?" Tsunade shouted as she kept her distances as she didn't want to the others to attack him just yet.

The mask man looked at her, in a second where his eyes should have been met with hers before he turned his attention to the shaking young woman in front of him a few meters from him. But in that brief moment Tsunade felt almost as if she had received some unseen blow to her power as her anger and confidence flickered out stuffed instead by fear a fear that's so primal that it made her think on a deer caught facing a raging dragon. Her aura flickered the emotions she used to power it up, crushed.

"The name is Faceless," the man said still has his face towards Hinata, the light and almost jovial tone put all of the ninjas around him on edge, "I am the one that ended his human life."

"You monster!" Hinata shouted as she rushes at him.

"Stop!" Tsunade shouted but was too late as the Leaf Ninjas all rush in only Jiraiya stayed behind knowing what happen when her and Faceless eyes had met.

Then slowly, looking to the upcoming barrage of fists, knives, kicks, shurikens and a lot more of assorted weapons courtesy of the ninjas different style techniques, in a move so fluid that he seemed as if his flesh was water he extended almost lazily his right hand and fired a low level energy wave powered by his aura.

The weapons were brushed aside while to two generations of the Hidden Leaf Village and ninjas from other villages, it seemed like if they had slammed into an invisible wall with the strength of an upcoming dragon sending them crashing around of the still unmoving form of the man name Faceless. Hinata the only one that wasn't stuck stop as she saw everyone that had rushed with her were blown away like flies.

"Just like I thought," the Faceless said, "He will have no trouble when he's done with his training."

"What are you talking about?" Jiraiya ask as he was wary as he has never seen an attack like that before. Any fool could see that Faceless wasn't even showing a tenth of his full power yet. The ninjas that were blown away were all still knock out from Faceless energy attack.

"When Naruto finishes with his training with me and comes back here for his revenge," Faceless said with amusement in his voice as he saw the reactions of everyone that heard him, "But unlike me he will be using powerful energy attacks, like the one I use to bat away those ninjas. I for one hate using energy attacks as I like to take things up close and personal."

"But you said you killed him," Hinata spoke her voice lost all of its heat and rage it had before. The ninjas that were knock out awoken and began pulling themselves back together.

"I did kill him but he was than reborn as a half-demon," Faceless explains.

"What did you do to him?" Tsunade growls thinking of what this monster has done to Naruto for the past six years, turning him against his village.

"Did to him?" Faceless gave out a soft chuckle, "Nothing but gave him the one thing that he could never have in this village. I told him that when I end his life that he'll be reborn as a half-demon. But of course see is better than hearing, so here's a memory orb of that day six years ago."

Faceless pulls out a small orb and press something on its side and a 3-D image of a young Naruto and Faceless appears. The image started to play at the part where Naruto was thinking whether or not to take Faceless offer.

Flashback –

"And what will you do if I decide to not to become a hero but to take my wrath on my village instead?"

"Fine with me," the man replied, "I want to shape you into a warrior for good or evil, it is up to you. What path of life you'll walk will be up to you and only you alone."

Naruto got onto his feet walking over to the man, "That doesn't sound so bad, not bad at all." He heard a click as a long blade came out of the right sleeve of the man's jacket. When he got into the mans range, he felt a sharp pain in his chest as the man buried his blade where his heart is located at, "That's not bad at all." Naruto smiles as he stares into the man's face that's hidden by a skintight metal mask that covers his whole head. There's no mouthpiece, no breathing holes or even eye holes on the mask. Just a Faceless metal mask that reflected nothing back as Naruto looks into where the man's eyes should had been, he couldn't help smiling at the man that ended his human life.

The memory orb stop playing as Faceless pulls his blade out of Naruto's body. Everyone in the stadium were stun at what they had just watched. "Since that day he's been pushing himself to levels that I have only seen one other person able to do in such a short amount of time," Faceless spoke as he puts the orb back into his coat, "He still has a long ways to go to reach my level of skill and power but once he's done training with me he'll be strong enough to attack this village and win."

"What did you do to him?" Tsunade growls out, "That isn't the Naruto I know!"

"Which one do you mean?" Faceless ask, "The mask that he wears of that smiling fool? Or the one that's underneath that mask? The one that you knew was there but never try to reach the real Naruto. You saw him as your little brother that you lost long ago, not seeing the child that only wanted someone to care about him."

Tsunade was taken aback as she heard him say what she knows is true. She did saw him as her dead brother. Never bothering to find the real Naruto underneath the mask he wore.

"No!" Hinata said shaking her head, "Naruto isn't that kind of guy!"

"Are you sure?" Faceless ask as he pulls out a strange hand held black box with a red button on it. He presses it and a portal suddenly opens in front of Hinata.

"What is this?" Hinata ask staring at the vortex in front of her.

"It's a gateway to where Naruto is," Faceless informs her, "Step through and head towards the bridge there you'll find him on it."

Hinata looks at the vortex before she steps into it. Jiraiya had tried to reach her before she step through but was too late. He turns to Faceless, "Where did you take her?"

"To show her the real Naruto the one underneath the mask," Faceless said as he pulls out another orb placing it on the ground and a 3-D image of Hinata appears standing on a barren landscape, a stone bridge is seen in the background, "Let's watch and enjoy the show. Who knows maybe with the love from the only person in this whole village that actually cared for him will bring out some of that Naruto that she says is him."

"If anyone can do it. It would be Hinata," Tsunade said.

"You're only saying that because she is the only one that cares for him without anything hidden agenda," Faceless added making everyone who heard jolt as they know it's the truth.

On the bridge connecting East and West –

Hinata mind race was she ran across the bridge to the figure standing on the middle of the nearly a mile long bridge. He saw her running and turns to face her with an indifferent look. She started smiling and tears of joy welled up in her eyes as she finally saw him after six long years. He has change she could already see the fox ears on his head, the nine fox tails that grew out from his lower back, and the fox like eyes that replace his blue ones. But she didn't care about the changes that he's been through as she'll be finally be able to tell him that she loves him. She stops in front of him gasping for breath from the long run on the bridge her eyes locking onto him, wondering where to even start.

"I see they finally found out that I'm alive and planning on my revenge on them," Naruto said suddenly taking Hinata aback, "So they sent the only person that cared for me to convince me to sway my hand."

"No that's not true!" Hinata said as she couldn't believe what Naruto thought the reason why she's here was for that. But then knowing what the village adults did to him she couldn't blame him for thinking like that.

"Then how did you get here then?" he ask her his eyes boring down upon her.

"Faceless crash the final exams at the village and told us what happen to you. He said that the face who wore when we knew each other was nothing more than a mask," Hinata said lost in what she should do or say.

"So that's where he has gone too," Naruto said letting out a small laugh, "Telling them that I'm going to take my revenge upon them ahead of time so they will have time to prepare for me."

"What do you mean?" Hinata ask.

"He wants to see how strong I have become underneath his training. So he goes and tells you and the others about me so they have time to prepare for my attack. Fine then master I'll go along and show you how powerful I have become. I will burn that village to the ground when my training is done here," Naruto said to Hinata as she shakes with an unknown emotion. Naruto shakes his head as she stares at him, her eyes pleading out to him, "Now don't look at me like that. You and Iruka were the only ones whoever treated me like a person, while the others treated me as a monster. What else could I have become out of an environment like that?"

"Naruto," Hinata said as she walks over to him. She would embrace him holding him against her and will never let go, till he sees that she loves him with all of her being. She would never be able to take away his scars inflicted upon him but she'll do everything to she can to heal them.

But she never got the chance as she suddenly found herself falling backwards as Naruto had pulled out his sword and slice her legs above her knees off in one clean motion, in the span of a heartbeat. She never even felt herself hit the ground as her mind raced with the fact that her Naruto has just maimed her for life. He looks down on her fallen form as blood leeks out from the two stumps that were once her legs, his eyes held nothing in her no caring or hatred just indifferent's to her. Without a backwards glance he started walking towards the fort on the other side of the bridge even as she reaches out for him.

The pain she is feeling of her body pales to what she's feeling inside of her now as she cries out for him shouting over and over again, "NARUTO, NARUTO, NARUTO!"
