Kiba does everything he can to try and make Naruto remember but ultimately annoys him by being too forceful making Naruto try and avoid Kiba.

Chapter 6 – Naruto's Frustration.

Kiba quickly walks down the corridors of the hospital looking for room 14 with Naruto in.

'I need him to remember me, to remember us' Kiba thought to himself as he walked past room 12 nearing his destination. As soon as he reaches Naruto's room, he reaches up to knock only to hesitate, stuck for a moment the door opens to reveal a confused blond.

"Kiba? What are you doing?" the blond asked clearly unsure what Kiba is doing at the hospital so early.
"oh, umm, Naruto I just was seeing how things where going" Kiba played off backing out again on asking the blond what he truly wanted to ask.

"Thing's are going good, I have some more memories back, nothing detailed but every little helps" the blond chimed "I still have work to do with Inoichi but we are still good with sparing later yeah? Naruto continued focusing the brunet.

"Ye-Yeah, that is still good with me, what time should I come and find you?" the brunet asked clearly unsure what to do

"Come around 6ish? That good with you?" Naruto responded thinking that will give him and Inoichi plenty of time to work.

"Sounds good, we could get Ichiraku before we spar" Kiba suggested to the blond nin,

"Sounds great! See you at 6" Naruto smiled at Kiba before turning back to Inoichi.

Feeling defeated Kiba closes the door and heads out of the hospital.

Later that day the sun is starting to set as it gets closer to 6pm, Kiba is walking around the village killing time before meeting the blond nin; he is too deep in his own head to notice Sakura calling out to him.

"Hello, earth to Kiba!" the pinked hair nin shouted brining Kiba out of his funk.

"Oh hi Sakura" Kiba said flustered lost in his own thoughts.

"How are you doing?" Sakura asks out of concern as she can clearly see the brunet is struggling

"As good as one can do, I just, I just don't know what to do anymore" Kiba exasperated "obviously I a am happy Naruto is alive, but part of me is also mad at him, he threw himself in harms way without thinking about it and now he has lost his memories and now I am the one hurting" Kiba continued, this is clearly the first time he has said anything like this out loud and it had caught the pink haired nin off guard. "Why does bad things always happen to him? First the village, second Sasuke, third the Akatsuki now this, and I caused this" Kiba expressed defeated with his head in his hands.

"Kiba you cannot think like that, it isn't your fault, it is the rebels fault. If they didn't start an uprising we wouldn't have been sent on that mission" Sakura said putting a hand on Kiba's shoulder, "you must know the best that Naruto would do anything to protect the ones he loves, he would throw himself in harm's way for you time and time again if it means saving you, also yes he has had a hard time, the village including myself shunning him, true with Sasuke but that will be resolved later, now the biggest threat it is the Akatsuki but it is Naruto, he will get through everything placed in front of him, he is strong, somehow smart and caring with the rest of us to back him up when he falls." She continued to comfort the brunet.

"Im just mad at the situation, its not fair!" Kiba angrily says to Sakura closing his hands into fits,

"Life isn't fair Kiba, you know that" Sakura responds "but give it time, things will get better"

Sighing with frustration Kiba starts walking towards the hospital.

"I said I will meet Naruto at 6 and I should get going" Kiba says over his shoulder to the pink hair nin.

"Just give him time" Sakura says to Kiba as he walks away from her.

A short stroll through the village Kiba arrives outside the hospital; looking up to the sky Kiba walks into the hospital to find the blond. Getting ready to head out Naruto is talking to Inoichi about the regained memories he has.

"So it seems that you can remember most of your friends and your past" Inoichi confirms from his conversation with Naruto, 'he has come far' Inoichi thought to himself. Even though it wasn't perfect Naruto felt like he could get back to active duty.

"Well, I should get going, I am meeting Kiba to spar" Naruto said excitedly, it has been three weeks since the accident and he hasn't spared with anyone since he woke up. Naruto then got up from his bed and headed out of the room to look for Kiba; meanwhile in the hospital Kiba was making his way to Naruto's room. A couple of minutes pass and the blond is running through the hospital excited to get out and, in his haste, he runs right into someone knocking them both over.

"Opps sorry" Naruto said as he got himself up from the floor,

"No it is my fault I wasn't looking where I was going" the other person said from the ground.

It took a moment before both parties realised who each other were.

"Oh Kiba!" Naruto exclaimed, reaching down to give the brunet a hand. Reaching up to the hand extended to him Kiba grabs Naruto and pulls himself up from the floor.

"What was the rush blondie?" Kiba retorted but instantly clasped his hands over his mouth as he used one of his nicknames for his blond boyfriend which made the blond freeze up a little causing a awkward silence to fall between the two.

"Oh, you know looking for you and busting out of this joint" Naruto tried to brush of Kiba's nickname but obviously shaken by the name. "shall we get out of here then?" he continued

"Yeah, lets go to Ichiraku, my treat before I kick your ass with our spar" Kiba said with a toothy grin trying to defuse the situation he accidently caused.

The two walked out of the hospital in silence and headed into town, it was now after 6pm and the sun was on its way down leaving the village in a nice orange glow. Once they arrived at Ichiraku's they ordered their food and sat in awkward silence. Both men not knowing what to say to the other, Kiba wanting to bring up the subject of Naruto's memories and their relationship and Naruto was stuck with knowing he is friends with Kiba but still doesn't have any memories of their relationship. Food is served to the young men, and they eat still in silence, after a couple of bowls of ramen for Naruto Kiba breaks the silence.

"So….. umm, you know, how's it going with Inoichi" Kiba stammered not knowing what to say or do but also hopeful there has been some major breakthrough.

"Things are going great, I have most of my memories back, Inoichi has helped a tremendous amount. I still don't remember everything between all of our friends, and umm, yeah, I, umm, still have gaps with you" Naruto tapered off not looking at the brunet. Clearly he knew what Kiba was asking but felt awkward to bring the subject up.

"Oh that's good you have most of your memories" Kiba said sadly clenching his chopsticks in his hand, hearing Naruto still didn't remember their relationship hurt the brunet.

"Look Kiba" Naruto said with resolve forcing Kiba to look at him, "Im sorry I don't remember what happened between us, im finding it hard as I feel like I have expectations to remember everything and go back to how things was, but Inoichi did say time will be the best healer, and I don't know if or when I will remember everything; so maybe it would be best if we said the relationship we had is ended so I can focus on getting my memories back and you can move on if I don't remember" Naruto said with sadness in his voice, hearing this shocked the brunet. He never thought Naruto would break up with him but here it is happening the blond is suggesting Kiba's worse nightmare. Feeling trapped, the world collapsing around him Kiba stands up abruptly and leaves the stand without a word. Feeling defeated Naruto pays for the food and heads out after Kiba.

"Kiba!" Naruto shouted to the brunet who has gotten some distance from the blond, hearing this made Kiba rush his walk into a light jog towards the training fields in an effort to escape his falling world. Seeing Kiba pick up his pace Naruto gives chase still shouting for the brunet to stop.

What becomes a light jog becomes a full-on chase through the village until they arrive at the training fields.

"Kiba, please stop" Naruto calls out again, this time the brunet stops and turns on the blond with a fist swinging connecting to the blond's face with a crack knocking the blond to the floor.

"What was that for?" Called out the blond shocked by what has happened,

"I LOVE YOU; I LOVE YOU AND YOU ARE BREAKING UP WITH ME!" Kiba screamed crying.

"I don't remember 'us' Kiba, im sorry I am trying" Naruto said starting to get annoyed with how Kiba is acting

"You aren't trying hard enough" Kiba exclaimed which really hit a nerve with the blond

"You know I am trying!" Naruto shouted back as he got back to his feet only to be shoved by Kiba

"I am trying to make you remember me, I am trying to give you space, but you don't remember me" Kiba continued his shoving causing the blond to finally snap and push back

"You know what Kiba I am trying but if you are going to act like a child I don't want to remember" Naruto shouted back starting to get angry with Kiba and allowing his chakra to flare up in response to his anger. Seeing Naruto flare his chakra caused Kiba to roar up his chakra getting ready to fight, both men's frustrations building up and reaching a boiling point; not long Kiba throws another punch towards the blond who dodges the punch and throws his own towards the brunet connecting to his face sending the brunet flying backwards across the field. It was on. The two men rushed towards each other with no regard for the other.

Kiba throwing punches and kicks only to be evaded by Naruto which was only getting more pissed and his chakra only getting stronger. Soon it was a full-on brawl between the two with tempers flying high. At the disadvantage as he was without Akamaru Kiba was starting to lose the battle whereas Naruto was becoming relentless to the point the Kyuubi chakra was awakened sending an ominous chill throughout the village alarming the shinobi who knew what power has been awakened. Sensing the chill in the air Tsunade called for all team leaders to her office so they can find and deal with Naruto. Meanwhile the fight between Kiba and Naruto has become a one-way fight where Kiba was on the defensive now running out of steam from the onslaught from Naruto, he knew Naruto was strong but didn't expect him to be this strong and he was now worrying for his own safety as the kyuubi was now in play.

'Fuck, how do I get myself in these situations' Kiba thought to himself as he tried to evade another punch from the blond only to be blindsided by a second Naruto followed by a third, fourth, fifth then another puff of smoke and there was 50 Naruto's surrounding the brunet. This was trouble and Kiba knew it. Around the village various teams followed the ever-increasing strengthening chakra.

"What is happening" Tsunade asks Shizune

"I don't know ma'lady' Shizune responds clearly worried also as a clap of thunder roars from the training field.

With most squads mobilised and reaching the source of the ominous chakra they are surprised to see Kiba and many Naruto's fighting and seeing Kiba losing the other shinobi jump in to help the brunet and quell Naruto.
