Hey guys so after the holiday I got very busy…so I now only have a few days to write this one up….now I don't think that it will harm this chapter too much seeing as I don't really want rush myself. What it may mean is that I may cut this one short a bit; which would suck seeing as I just did a present pretty of a long one. Meh, we will just have to see. Also I think what I am going to make it a poll to see who people want Fu to be with (Naruto vs. Shino vs. maybe neither)

Oh and just to let you know while I love the way Jiraiya is shown as pretty much an old goofball but I also plan on showing him as a more serious ninja at times after all he is an S class ninja with a lot of spies under his control….he HAS to have his serious moments even if he is pretty much a perverted old man.

Oh, and just because I haven't said it in a while….I don't own Naruto

Chapter 33

Fu and Naruto still stood still simply watching the group of wannabe Akatsuki members. Said group instead of worrying about the two simply drew out either kunai or their swords to get ready to beat them into a near death state. Then suddenly the leader rushed at the two jinchuriki with his group quickly following his lead. So, Fu and Naruto quickly jumped a ways away from the attackers while Fu made her bugs swarm towards them forcing the others to stop their charge. She then followed them with her swarm forcing the four ninja to constantly keep moving.

"Che, no wonder they didn't want to fight her. This bitch is just nasty using all these bugs." One of the guys complained looking at the swarm that piled up just two feet away from him with disgust. He then grabbed one of his kunai and charged it with lighting chakra and threw it at the swarm frying hundreds of them. "Guys remember they are just bugs stop worrying so much about dogging them and take care of them." He ordered his group charging two more kunai and began killing off as many of them as he could without using too much chakra. An idea his group soon followed with two of them using fire jutsus to burn them and the other copying the leader's electric kunai strategy.

Seeing this Fu begins to gain a horrified expression on her face then quickly recalled her bugs to save their lives. "Damn you humans!" She growled out now angry and clearly ready to charge at them.

"Fu. Calm down…remember even if these guys don't seem all that bright we need to fight them carefully seeing as there has to be a reason THAT group wants them." Naruto told the girl who still seemed annoyed but more in control of herself.

"Then what do you think we should do?" Fu asked without losing her focus on the enemies. She then watched as Naruto created one hundred clones that rushed at the four men who still stood in basically the same area they were originally.

"There that should be able to hold them for a little bit. Now thankfully even though these guys have to be pretty strong if the Akatsuki would consider them they still are underestimating us….they must either have not been told why were are wanted and dangerous or they are just EXSTREMELY cocky. Either way we need to take advantage of this while we can." Naruto thought with a small smile before using his distraction to whisper his plan to Fu who gained a smirk as well.

Naruto then nodded his head at her before turning back to the now annoyed ninja and began rushing at them while Fu didn't move an inch. Naruto quickly reached one of the group who still was focused on killing the four clones that were trying to cut at him with kunai. He then grabbed out a kunai and slashed at the man as well to blend in with his clones. He kept doing this for about a minute until he finally was certain that the man would have no idea which one of the clones was him before raising his empty hand to quickly form a blade made from chakra on his hand which resembled a chakra scalpel and quickly tried to stab the older ninja with it. An attack that caught the man completely off guard seeing as Naruto purposely pierced through his own clones back to prevent the man from seeing it. Though sadly due to the man being an A rank ninja he was able to prevent his attack from killing him completely by attempting to jump back fast enough that the attack cut deep into his side. Still the wound was bad enough that he clipped on of the man's lungs causing the man to be at a major disadvantage. Sadly said man quickly began to seemingly heal some of the damage as the hand that he held there glowed green. Course before he could finish off the guy one of the guy's teammates covered for him.

Naruto then spend the next several minutes trying to fight all four of the men by himself while making a new set of clones every now and then to keep them from overpowering him.

"Damn it boy just give up already. We both know that you stand no chance against us and you are not our target…so tell you what, if you leave now and let us get the girl we will pretend you never bothered us. I mean look at her she isn't even willing to protect herself and instead just letting you die for her." The leader explained.

"Oy, Datomi we aren't letting this bastard go…I am going to kill him for what he did to me." One of the others growled out making the leader glare at the man. Though before he could respond to the guy Naruto talked.

"Hmmm, yea that is a good question…why am I fighting you while she isn't? It is so strange I mean she is the one that wanted revenge for harming her colony..." Naruto questioned while looked to be lost in thought. He even was rubbing his chin as if he had a beard to run his hands through like he saw Sarutobi do countless times. The ground them rumbled around all of them causing all of the Akatsuki hopefuls to get concerned while Naruto just kept his pose. Moments later a massive swarm of bugs came from underground which quickly swarmed around all four of them. "Oh yeah that's why…I almost forgot she wanted to let her friends get their revenge." Naruto told the men who were now screaming and trying to kill off the bugs around them. Course this time there was so many of them no matter what they did the swarm completely covered them. The screams continued for a few moments before Naruto heard three distinct thuds and something that sounded like static.

So, Naruto quickly brought his focus completely back to the fight instead of teasing them and saw the bugs disperse from three corpses that now looked to have had all their fluids drained from them. Though the thing that concerned him was the fact that one of the swarms that quickly was fading away had blue lights going through it showing that lighting was being created. Lightning that killed off most of the bugs around the man who was now panting due to the exertion of transforming enough chakra to create lighting to coat his body. Thus showing that the leader of the now dead group was still very much alive.

"Damn kids….I…will kill you." Datomi growled out in between pants before throwing down a smoke bomb and using some of the little chakra he had to quickly disappear from the area.

"Well we didn't get them all but we still won." Naruto told Fu happily.

"Yea, my hives deaths have been mostly revenged…though now I have to say you seem a lot more trustworthy." Fu told him with a small smile now considering the blond as one of her most trustworthy friends. After all if he wasn't a good friend he would have just left her to fend for herself instead of creating a plan where he was the one in danger.

"Good job kid." Jiraiya told them scaring both of the jinchuriki.
"Ero-senin! When did you get here?" Naruto asked his teacher shocked.

"I got here just in time to see you guys in action." Jiraiya told them with a smile.

"…you were watching that whole time weren't you?" Naruto asked with a neutral expression only to notice Jiraiya saying nothing. "Damn you Ero-sennin you could have helped us!" Naruto told him glaring at the man.

"But you guys had it covered." Jiraiya told them happily refusing to explain to them the real reason he didn't help them. Though he at least was proud to see that his student learned quite a bit from him already. Even if for some reason he waited for Fu to kill them instead of ending it without wasting so much time and energy. "…Anyways how about you two go do something and I will take care of this mess." Jiraiya told them planning on seeing if he can get any Akatsuki secrets from them sadly as soon as he said this seals began to glow on the cloaks that the men were wearing that made blue fire appear that quickly burned the bodies into ash that was blown away into the forest. Something that mildly surprised all of them. "Well then I guess let me just give you guys a free meal as a celebration instead." Jiraiya told them happily forcing them both to follow him.

"B-but most of the humans in the village don't want anything to do with me." Fu told Jiraiya who only waved it off saying he would deal with it. "Damn I hate having to be so secretive and deceitful around my own student but I can't let him know that I was going to let his friend die due to me fighting here could start another war. Plus, he is nowhere near ready to fight any of the real Akatsuki who have to be somewhere close by to be able to activate those seals at such a perfect time…*sigh* sometimes it sucks to be an extremely well known S class ninja." Jiraiya thought sadly but still tried to enjoy the reward he was about to give the kids seeing as he truly was proud to see how Naruto handled himself in the fight.

_Datomi_

"Damn kids. How the hell did they manage to push me this far?" Datomi growled out from his spot in a tree on the other side of the village. He was at the moment simply using the minor amount of medical skills he had to fix the damage he received from his fight with the Naruto clones. Sadly the effects of Fu's attack was much harder to heal seeing as he not only had a lot of small dots from where the bugs bit him but also lost a lot of both his bodily fluids. These things he couldn't just fix with medicine but had to wait a while before he could recover from his near death experience especially now that his chakra was extremely low.

After finishing with his healing he went into the village to get some food and a hotel room so that he could rest and recover while he stewed in his anger of losing.

"-but what if that demon tried something with the hero water?" Datomi overheard from a table next to him in the bar.

"Hero water?" he thought now curious so he walked over to their table with a beer in his hand.

"Now what would be so bad about a demon getting some water?" he asked the civilians.

"Huh? How do you not know about the hero water?" one of them asked making him glare at the guy.

"Well as you can see from the headband I kind of am not around here." Datomi told the man with a glare.

"Calm down man, Hayti is just a bit too buzzed to think straight right now." The other man told him and they both then watched the man that was mentioned near fall from his seat.

"….anyways what is the hero water?" Datomi asked deciding to pretend that the other man never spoke.

"the hero water is something that gives a massive boost to anyone who drinks it. Supposedly if even a civilian drank a whole cup of it they would be able to fight on par with a jonin. Though after a while the person who drank it would be killed by the water itself. Thus making it a final stand thing. So, if the demon got it she would probably try to kill us all." The other man explained.

"Huh…and how would someone be able to get this water." Datomi asked now curious seeing as he figured it would be the perfect thing to let him get his revenge on Fu and Naruto easily and that he probably could survive it if he didn't drink too much.

"Well it is locked away somewhere in the village seeing as it is a vital weapon for us." The civilian told him with a shrug figuring finding no harm in telling him about one of his own village's defenses.

"Ah gotta love civilians. They never can be trusted with any even semi important information seeing as they always don't know how to keep their lips sealed." Datomi thought laughing on the inside while he gave the man a small smile "Thanks for the information. Here the next round is on me." He happily told the man giving the guy some cash before leaving to go plan his revenge.

+Next day+

Datomi now had his plan and was ready to set it into action. So, he quickly grabbed several explosive seals and spent the morning placing them around the village to cause some havoc around the village. Something that he was able to do thanks to most of the village's ninja seem pretty relaxed. He then calmly walked towards the biggest building he saw assuming it was where he would find the leader. Something that was easily found making him smile darkly.

"Time for the fun to begin." He mumbled to himself quietly before setting off all of the seals he placed causing chaos in the village for both those that were waking up and those that were guarding the village. Due to this he was able to quickly slip into the building and enter the main office where he quickly began his search. Too bad for him Shibuki happened to walk in with his guards while he was still searching for anything that would lead him to the hero's water.

"Have half of our people protecting and helping the civilians while the rest of us look for-" Shibuki began ordering one of the two people beside him before noticing that they weren't the only people in the room. "…the one responsible." He finished clearly surprised to see Datomi there. An advantage he used to quickly get the drop on the two low-level jonin and low to mid-level chunin leader.

With that in mind he pulled out a kunai and tried to stab Shibuki only for him to miss when said leader tripped over his own feet while trying to doge and fell out of the way. With that the two jonin quickly tried to grab him only for him to quickly point his palms at the men on either side of him. "Static pulse" he quietly mumbled as a quick but dense pulse of lightning flew from his hands to slam into both of the men's chests knocking them away. With them far enough away he quickly grabbed another kunai and held it to Shibuki's neck before his first discarded kunai could even hit the floor.

"No one move or I make sure that you are short one leader." Datomi ordered the two men who now were back up. His dark smile only grew when he saw both of the ninja accepting his demands and not moving an inch; not even to get up. With that seen he turned to Shibuki with his smile still on his face. "Now leader-san how about telling me where I can find the hero's water?" he asked to utterly enjoy the look of shock on Shibuki's face that he actually even knew the water existed.

"H-how do you know about the water?" Shibuki asked a bit afraid of the man in front of him.

"Heh, you shouldn't give out information to your civilians. They are way too loose lipped...not that it matters now. Anyways tell me where the water is. This is your last chance before I kill one of your guards."

"No! Don't hurt my ninja!...I will show you where the water is kept." Shibuki told him not wanting anyone to be killed due to him not being able to defend himself before it was too late. "I am sorry father but I have to give up one of the things you held most dear…all because I am not strong enough to be a real leader." Shibuki thinks sadly then allowed himself to be dragged out of the office.

~Lake within the village~

"Are we almost at the water yet?" Datomi asks now irritated about how long it was taking to reach his prize. After all he also had to make it through the village trying his hardest to try and hide the fact that he had their leader held hostage.

"Yes, we just need to swim to the tree in the middle of this lake and we will find the water."

"Good..I am finally so close to my revenge that I can taste it." Datomi mumble with a dark grin that made Shibuki shiver in fear.

"That is why you are attacking us? Just for revenge…what did we ever do to you?"

"Che, your damn brat that lives in a forest is the one that I need revenge on. All of you weaklings are just in the way."

"…Fu" Shibuki mumbled out in shock realizing that this man wanted to use their secret weapon as a means to kill one of his precious people. Still he had to lead the man to what he wanted seeing as he would be killed if he tried anything. "Damn why do I have to be weak! He is going after Fu and instead of protecting her I am cowering in fear just because helping her would kill me…what a great leader I am.." Shibuki thought sadly but still jumped into the water and began swimming towards the hidden cave.

When they finally made it into the cave Datomi saw the small container of hero water and pushed Shibuki out of the way to run up to the key to his revenge.

"Now all I need to do is find those bastards." He mumbled out smiling but never even noticed the water beetle quietly leaving the cave.

_With Naruto and Fu_

Naruto was now working on his elements half-heartedly seeing as Jiraiya ordered both of them to stay where they were while he went to figure out why there was several explosions in the village. An order that they both hated seeing as Fu was worried about the few precious people she had and Naruto due to his hero mentality. Still they both listened to the older man seeing as he made it clear that there was no room for arguing with him.

"Ah! That's it I am going even if that damn man refuses to let us. I am a ninja of this village it is my duty." Fu growled out finally getting to her breaking point of stewing in her worry.

"Fu, I know you want to go but we promised to stay here." Naruto told her trying to hold her back only for her to pull her arm out of his hold.

"No! I have no reason to listen to him and I need to check on them…they are all I have." Fu told him sadly before jumping onto a nearby tree. She then began to race towards the village until she noticed Naruto was gaining on her. "Naruto, you aren't going to stop me..I have to save them if they are in trouble." Fu told him determined only to see Naruto smile at her.

"I know but it is better if you don't go alone…besides I never listen to the pervert anyways." Naruto told her making the girl smile and nod before restarting her race to the village. They then quickly reached the village and saw both the ninja and civilians working hard to stop several fires that were burning in the village. Other than that there wasn't anything harming the village much to their surprise.

"..hmm I wonder what caused those explosions if it wasn't an attack." Naruto questioned while Fu was preoccupied with a random bug that landed on her shoulder. He then watched as her face showed both surprise and fear as the bug flew away from her.

"It was an attack Naruto! That bastard that attacked us earlier is going for one of the village treasures and has Shibuki-nii as a hostage!" She told him making Naruto just as shocked as she is.

"Damn it! Well what are you waiting for let's go get that bastard." Naruto told her letting her take the lead in racing to help seeing as he had no clue where he had to go.

~Outside of Hero Water Hidden chamber~

Datomi and Shibuki both came out of the water from their trip with the only difference being that Datomi now had the hero water container on his back. A fact that made Shibuki look at the ground in shame for. Course they both soon sensed two massive chakra sources rushing towards them fast. Signatures that both knew and now were waiting for. One who was clearly excited while the other with fear.

"Please Fu and whoever you are with please go away. I don't want to be the reason you die." Shibuki begged watching the man beside him grab the container. Still his quiet begging failed seeing as they landed seconds later.

"Well welcome you two. Ready to die for what you did to me?" He asked the two of them with his smile growing when he noticed Naruto grab a few kunai and Fu summoned her bug swarm. "I guess you are." He added then quickly opened the container and drank a few mouthfuls of the hero water. After this his chakra levels skyrocketed enough that there was a visible storm of it running madly around him. "Ah this power feels great!" He yelled out happily then looked at them. "now come to your demise." He ordered them. An order they took and ran at him trying to kill him as fast as they could. So, Naruto quickly tried slashing at him while Fu launched her swarm at him. Though their attempts were futile seeing as he just sent out a pulse of pure chakra that launched Naruto back and killed the bugs it hit.

"Hahaha just give up and die. As you just saw nothing you do can harm me…this power makes me invincible!" Datomi called out to them clearly drunk off his new found power.

"….you may have gotten stronger but you are a fool for thinking you are special just because you can cloak yourself in chakra." Naruto told him simply making Datomi look at him like he was stupid.

"Oh, and who do you think would have a chance to be able to match this?" He asked cockily only to watch as Naruto began to draw on some demonic chakra with Fu doing the same soon after. Soon enough both of them were cloaked in one tail worth of chakra.

"You are looking at them." Naruto told him in a now demonic voice only to look at his enemy who was horrified by their new appearance. "Oh, they never told you just who you were fighting?... well too bad for you it is far too late to go back." Naruto told him before speeding towards Datomi twice as fact and slashed at him with his chakra claws. An attack that Datomi at first didn't even try to dodge until he saw the red chakra basically ignore his 'shield'. After he noticed this he quickly jumped back making him only receive a few claw marks on his chest rather than being cut in half.

"W-what the hell?" Datomi asked shocked that his 'all powerful' aura failed him.

"Poor fool has someone never fought Jinchuriki before? Well too bad because you are now…though not for long if you keep making these mistakes." Naruto told him with a demonic grin on his face which confused the man.

"Huh, mistakes? I mean I shouldn't have let him get through my shield but what was my other mistakes?" Datomi asked confused before noticing something that made his eyes widen. "Shit there are two of them!" He yelled in his mind and dived to the side just in time to see Fu speed through the area he just was. Still surprisingly enough he managed to recollect himself enough to reset up his defenses for a fight. A motion that was yet again ruined when a water dragon slammed into the chakra flowing around his back pushing him several yards but yet not managing to harm him much. An attack that made him glance behind him only to growl when he saw that it was Shibuki who attacked.

"I-I am the leader of this village and will not stand by and let you do what you want!" Shibuki told him with a glare clearly forcing himself to be courageous.

"Heh, oh so the coward finally tries something huh, Well I guess I will just have to k-" Datomi began before feeling a large amount of pain as his heart began to beat faster and faster. "Damn what is going on!" Datomi asked mentally seeing as actually talking was impossible for him at the moment. Instead he just grabbed at his heart desperately trying to figure out some way to stop the pain.

"Well it seems that your time has ended." Shibuki told the man who tried his best to glare at him but another wave of pain prevented him from getting too far.

"N-n-no. I-I am too st-strong to d-die from…water" Datomi managed to mumble out until a wave of pain even worse than any of the others shoot through is system. It now felt like lava was flowing throughout his body for the twenty seconds it lasted until his heart finally gave out and he died. His now lifeless body fell into the lake and slowly began to sink to the bottom. And that was the end of the missing ninja named Datomi.

And that is where I think I am going to end this. Now I don't think it came out too bad but that is up to you readers decide later…because honestly I still think my fighting scenes could use some more work. But hey that is the whole reason I am writing these things.

Also, I don't know how many of you will actually care but I am sorry about the fact that I haven't done anything with my other stories in ages. But that is mainly due to me having one story as my focus and then the rest of them are for when I have free time to use… and that is something I don't have ever anymore. Course the funniest part about this is the fact that I also am wanting to try my luck at a FF of another show/movie that I actually have seen some creative stories for…but don't worry I will be staying on my promise. Anyways Ja Ne.
