Heh… umm, sorry for the seriously overdue chapter. I had a hellish semester at school, but now, I've got classes I needn't worry as much about. I 'm not saying that I'll update quicker, but I will say this… I got an idea that'll blow yer minds… (jk), nah, I'll just be able to focus on it more. I hate it when an author doesn't finish a good story, and even if my story isn't good, I'm going to practice what I preach. Also, I'm gonna bring two elements not often used. A cross over of sorts that none of you will guess, and bushido isn't gonna be forgotten, either.

And another reason I was delaying is that I was busy playing The Legend of umm, well, I'm not gonna say…. But it ain't Zelda. Oh and Knights of the old Republic 1 and 2.

Oh, and I know some more big words…. MUHUHUHAHAHAHA!

Anyway, with no further announcements, I give you a chapter with the over abused idea:

Chapter 7

Heavenly Judgment eye! Naruto's maternal bloodline- The Tenchugan

!#$&()+

"Naruto. Naruto. NARUTO! WAKE YOUR LAZY ASS UP!"

A bundle of pink was just getting up from singing of birds, and was further awakened by seeing a slightly purple, but mostly red, two tailed fox on top of a…

Sakura looked over Naruto's face and damn near fainted.

Where a devishly handsome young man had gone to sleep, a man with divine facial features slept, though unsoundly with a fox screaming in his ear.

"I'M TRYIN TO SLEEP HERE, DAMMIT! LEAVE ME ALONE!" said one Uzumaki Naruto.

"YOU SHOULDA BEEN UP AGES AGO, IT'S ALMOST NOON!" the fox said.

"Bite me, Scylla."

"Where and how hard?"

"Up my butt and around the corner!"

Yep, though his outer self had changed, that was Naruto.

And Sakura was drooling, too.

"Yo." A voice cam from around camp.

Fox, girl, and half-demon jumped 6 feet in the air.

Kakashi giggled- yes, giggled-, and started laughing. He burst into a bunch of smoke, leaving a one Hyuuga Hinata, main heir to the Hyuuga household, and future wife of…(A/n: oh, you are all gonna hate who I make her fiancé)

"Hinata…" Naruto begin looking at the ninja princess.

Hinata gulped, scared she'd upset her crush.

"That was an awesome prank! I never saw it coming!"

"Arigato, N-narut-to-k-kun."

Inside, Hinata cursed herself for her returning shyness, especially since she worked so hard to get rid of it.

Naruto then started to look at himself, wondering if his changes had become apparent.

"Hey, bastard, think you should look at a mirror?" Scylla asked.

"How did you know I wanted a mirror?"

"I don't know, I just had a feeling you wanted a mirror?"

"Here, Naruto-kun, use this." Sakura fished a small mirror from a pocket in her dress.

Naruto stared at the small mirror, examining his face. He trembled for a second, and smiled.

"I'M SEXY!" Naruto said, like a true… sexy guy.

"Naruto… you still haven't grown up…." Sakura said, sighing.

"Hinata-chan, where's Kakashi-san?" Sakura asked.

"He went on ahead."

"Okay. I'm going to go and catch up. Hinata, could you stay here and help Naruto pick up camp?" Sakura winked at the shy Hyuuga. Hinata turned and headed into the forest.

"Hey, Sakura-chan, here's your mirror!" Naruto said.

"It's okay, you keep it, I have a spare. After all, you never know when a mirror could come in handy. Hey, can Scylla come with me? She's naturally got better senses than I."

"Oh, thanks." Naruto said.

It was a beautiful mirror, with an intricate Konoha leaf symbol on it, surrounded by sakura petals. The cover was a blue that was only matched by Naruto's eyes.

The mirror itself wasn't damaged, smudged or anything. It looked brand new.

"Thanks a lot." Naruto whispered, only Sakura was gone.

Naruto pocketed it.

"Naruto-kun, help!"

Naruto ran in the scream's direction to see Hinata wrapped in chains.

"Heh. Another pathetic ninja. Especially for a Hyuuga. I'm surprised that you're important enough for Orochimaru-sama to send me to kill you," said a young man sitting on a tree branch, holding the end of the chain, "Scream for help all you want, there aren't any ninja for a good half mile. I checked for charka. Nobody's here.

The young man was wearing a simple white gi with a black set of kanji saying "In defeat, there is death." He had a katana at his side, which was sheathed in a black sheath, with a tiger and a dragon waging war on it. In the background, there was a bunch of cherry blossoms, and a small design of what appeared to be a musical note. And if you looked on the boy's neck, there was a curse seal, only it had a black slash across it.

"Let her go, samurai-baka." Naruto said. Scylla jumped beside him, growling.

"Who are you? How did you avoid my detection?" the samurai said, looking surprised. He quickly suppressed it. He jumped of his perch on the tree branch, tying the chain around it first.

"You want a fight, civilian?" the samurai said, glaring, "Customs first. I am Kawakami Kenshin. I am a samurai, under the service of the Sennin Orochimaru-sama. I have direct orders to kill this girl, and any other ninja present, but return as quickly as I can. So, civilian, if you want to live, let me finish my task." Kenshin smiled an empty, hateful smile.

Naruto punched him in the face.

"You're gonna pay for that, civilian." Kenshin said.

The samurai drew his sword.

"Hiten Mitsurugi-Ryū: Doryusen!" Kenshin slammed his sword on the ground, senind a small shockwave in Naruto's direction. Naruto jumped, but, Kenshin anticipated this.

"Ryūtsuisen!" Kenshin sliced his sword down, but instead of injuring Naruto, he sliced through a log. "Kawarimi… damn."

Naruto tossed several kunai and shuriken at the samurai. Kenshin used his sword to deflect them.

"Kage Bunshin no jutsu!" Naruto made 20 clones.

"Ryūtsuishōsen!"

Naruto and clones jumped at Kenshin, while Kenshin jumped in the air, doing fast downward slices at each clone.

To his surprise, every Naruto vanished into smoke.

Well, so he thought.

"RASENGAN!" Naruto flew from a tree, summoning a ball of chakra into his hand…

"AND NOW: ODAMA RASENGAN!" Naruto summoned a small bit of kyuubi chakra, creating two rasengan, and slamming them together. Kenshin unconsciously brought his blade into a blocking position. The great spiral ball shattered the blade, but the force Kenshin put back on it knocked Naruto away.

Naruto got up, panting. The odama drained him. Sure, he had Kyuubi chakra, but as angry he was, he knew that the malevolent chakra would hurt his body. And he couldn't let Hinata see him a monster. But, thanks to already leaking out fox chakra, his anger and desperation mixed with his Kyuubi chakra.

"Dammit… you're a ninja. You must be that Uzumaki brat Orochimaru was seething about. How did you hide from my chakra sense?"

"That's for me to know, and for you to never find out." Naruto said, hunching over. He snarled, showing large canine teeth. His eyes turned blood red, and his fingernails became claws. His whisker marks deepend further. He was ready to kill.

He disappeared from his postion 10 feet away from Kenshin, to right in his face. HE started slashing with his claws, eventually tearing Kenshin's gi at many places. Naruto then threw Kenshin at a tree, and watching him hit it with satisfaction. He slowly went over to the area where Kenshin was slowly getting up, unaware to the enraged fox boy's location. He was about to give a killing blow, but Hinata came running from behind, grabbing Naruto in embrace. (Think Chuunin exams, only Sasuke and Sakura)

The kyuubi chakra stopped leaking out and Naruto slowly changed back.

"No more Naruto-kun… please…" the Hyuuga heir cried into Naruto's back.

Naruto turned back to look at Hinata.

"Naruto… your eyes are different…"

Naruto dug out his mirror, and saw into his eyes. The pupil and iris was gone, replaced by a 3 circles, each one bigger than the other, with eight triangles surronding it. ( Again, think of another anime, Tai's crest from digimon, look it up on google image)

"Behold kit, The most feared doujutsu in the mist: your bloodline, the Tenchugan."

Kenshin got up, slowly.

"Ninja, you have defeated me. Kill me, so I don't go to Orochimaru in disgrace." Kenshin bowed, blood trickling from his mouth and other places where Naruto struck.

"No." Naruto said.

"You wish to dishonor me? Why?" Kenshin said, panicking.

"Because, if you are as powerful as you say you are, you're going to help me stop Orochimaru."

"Betray my lord! Are you mad?"

"According to Bushido laws, you've already betrayed him by losing. Correct?

"Yes."

"The Laws of Man, you have broken them, but to the Laws of Spirit, you still are innocent of some charges, and guilty of others. Murderer. Betrayer. Coward. Heaven has spoken, mortal. Behold the power of the Tenchugan, and face the judgement. You will live, worm. And you will fight your old masters with your new one. Just know, if harm falls on this boy, vessel of the Divine Knights, Kyuubi, and the power of his own, you will beg for damnation."A voice said, coming from Naruto, but it wasn't.

Kenshin realizd that his "trial" had been an hour to him, yet his bounty hadn't moved.

"Yes, worm, you are in suspended time. I shall return you to your natural time, and you will act as though this didn't happen. Your cover is a life debt. Naruto has spared you, and you owe him. You will protect him. Or else."

"Naruto" blinked and the world went back to normal.

"So, why kill you?" Naruto asked, as if nothing happened.

"You are too cruel, ninja. But, you have spared my life. I will now protect yours. I swear an eternal life debt to you. Just us, none of that protection until both bloodlines die. So, what is your bidding, my… Master…." Kenshin said, bowing.

"You don't have to call me that."

"But, Master, I thought ninja thought they were superiour. Besides, I owe you my life. You somewhat own me." Kenshin said.

"Whatever. If this is a trick, I will not hesitate to kill you. I care for Hinata, Sakura, Syclla, and even Kakashi too much. I'll destroy you if you harm them in the littlest way. Understand?" Naruto said, his angry face on.

"Yes, Master."

!#$&()+

Heh… did I make Naruto too powerful? If you don't like it, you can just leave. I wanted to make a point. I happen to have been one of the first canon time skip authors, and I'm gonna be a first for something, real soon.

If you're wondering about the fact that I skipped the Gaara retrieval arc, don't. I worte this before the arc started, and I'm not going to change it to match. I'm not saying it won't happen later, it just isn't happening now.

Also, The Approaching Storm is just the first of three books, maybe. I'm planning on working on this until I'm 18, so you've still got 3 years to enjoy. I'm not going to make anybody wait that long for updates again, unless I have no choice in the matter.

Slight spoiler for the story:

Here's how the Books are going to go:

Naruto is the star of book one, you know the summary.

Book 2: Ninja Hurricane (pending)

The children of the strongest clans are about to become genins. But an ancient evil is about to strike.

Book 3: Dragon Storm

The child born with the strongest Bloodline is coming of age and the forces of evil stregthen. In her hands rests the fate of the world, as the final battle between good and evil draws closer.

After Book 3:

Hmm, not sure yet. Maybe oneshots about the world after 3.

Yes, 7 pages, I think I delievered short for such a long wait, but hey, I deserve flames for it. Go on, do it.
