I do not own 'Naruto'
REVENGE II (PAIN)
"Hi everyone" Naruto spoke to those in his Genjutsu "I was trying to be a nice guy, trying to be lenient in your punishment."
"You did horrible things to us!" Iruka and Hayate shouted.
"I said trying!" he shouted "But thanks to Asuma, I won't be going easy on you anymore."
"Well you-Wait, easy?" Ino asked "Anymore?"
"I'm going to tear your souls apart."
KIBA
The Inuzuka had spoken a big game, now he was alone.
And scared.
"At least I still have you Akumaru." Kiba stated getting a bark in reply.
"Or do you?" Naruto asked
"Dobe" Kiba growled.
"Hello Akumaru" Naruto greeted "and goodbye."
It all happened in a flash, Naruto had grabbed Akumaru.
"I will give you a chance to save your partner Kiba." Naruto stated "All you have to do is make a small sacrifice."
"What do I need to do?" Kiba asked
"It's said that your family values loyalty above all else, is that true?" Naruto asked
"An Inuzuka would gladly lay down their life for their friends and family." Kiba stated with pride.
"Then do so." Naruto ordered "And I'll let Akumaru live."
"You think that'll work?" Kiba laughed "The contract said you couldn't kill or cripple us."
"Did it say anything about suicide, no didn't think so." Naruto chuckled dryly "Plus, you don't have to kill yourself, you could neuter yourself." A dark thought occurred "Plus, Akumaru didn't sign, I could kill him now." Naruto raised a kunai to the dog.
"W-wait!"
Kiba slowly drew a kunai with shaky hand. He unsteadily held the blade to his throat.
Suddenly his hand held firm.
"Die Dobe!"
The young Inuzuka threw the kunai with experience accuracy. It soared toward Naruto, aiming for his heart.
The accuracy was dead on.
The only problem was Naruto had a shield, in the form of a dog.
The blade pierced Akumaru's underbelly. The dog gave a soft whimper before going still. Naruto dropped Akumaru on the floor with a soft thud. The puppy laid there broken and cold.
"You fool." was all Naruto spoke.
He left the young Inuzuka to grieve over his lost comrade.
The audience saw the whole thing, Tsume was very disappointed.
She just didn't know in who.
Naruto for using Akumaru as a meat shield and killing him. Or Kiba for risking his partner's life.
The academy entrance opened and Naruto walked out.
"Tsume" he called "I have something for you."
On his hand was Akumaru, the dog had bitten and hadn't let go.
"You're letting Akumaru go?" Tsume asked confused.
"I'm not holding anything against Akumaru." Naruto stated "He was innocent in everything, only following Kiba."
"Thank you pup." Tsume spoke "Now about that scene with me getting pups."
"Gotta' go" Naruto rushed "people to torture, minds to break."
INO
"As soon as I get out of here my daddy's going to kick your butt Naruto!" Ino shouted for the hundredth time.
"You always rely on others even, your clan name." Naruto chastised "You wouldn't make it a day in my shoes."
She continued walking when she noticed something, a light. It was a bit away, but it was something. Ino ran after it, she even ignored the fact that she was getting sweaty.
When she finally reached the light, she walked through it.
It lead outside. I'm free! Ino looked back at the school and saw that their tortures were being showed, just not hers. That means I'm the only one out! She realized, Sasuke will be proud of me. I better get a new dress for our date.
The young Kunoichi began to walk around the shopping district looking for the best.
She found it.
It was a golden dress that matched her blond hair perfectly. She just had to have it.
"Excuse me sir, how much is that dress?" Ino asked the cashier.
He took one look at her. "It's not for sale." he stated.
"But it..." he didn't let her finish.
"I said it's not for sale!" he growled before calming. "but I have one that is."
"You do?" Ino asked hopefully.
The man went into the back and returned with an orange dress. It wasn't too bad, but not up to Ino's taste.
Well beggars can't be choosers. "How much is it?" Ino asked.
"IT'S OVER 9000...yen." The man answered.
"What?" Ino ripped the dress from the man's hand and looked at the tag "The dress says 1000 yen."
"Are you telling me what I can and can't price my items?" Before she could answer he yelled. "GET OUT, I DON'T WANT YOUR KIND HERE!"
Ino ran out of the shop as fast as she could. She felt as if the owner would have actually hit her if she hadn't.
Well, who needs them she had better dresses in her closet.
"It's that girl."
"You mean that one?"
"Yep."
Ino looked around toward the ones whispering. She saw their not so hidden looks of hate and disgust. There was also the looks of something Ino was almost familiar with, just never this dark.
"Imagine what we could do with her."
"You'd probably catch something."
As Ino looked around she realized everyone was either glaring at her or acting like she wasn't there. It hurt, a lot.
"Score!" she heard someone shout.
There was a quick flash of pain in her head. The blow had knocked her off her legs and into a daze. She looked at the object used and couldn't believe it, it was a rock. Someone had actually thrown a rock at her!
When she came back to her senses, she came back with anger. How dare they!
Ino grabbed the rock and threw it directly at the one who struck her. It hit him in the direct center of his forehead knocking him over.
"Did you see that?" Someone asked panicked.
"She attacked him!"
"Someone get ANBU!"
"Get the bitch!"
"Kill her!"
Ino couldn't believe what she was hearing. They were going to punish her for self defense!
They began to move in on her. There's too many there was only one thing she could do. She had to run as far and fast as possible.
It wasn't enough.
They caught her.
"L-leave me alone!" she shouted as she trembled "I'm warning you!"
"You all here that, she's warning us." the entire crowd began to laugh. It wasn't a happy laugh, it promised pain.
One of the villagers threw another rock at her, it started.
The villagers began to beat her. They used whatever they could,be it their very hand or sticks they found on the ground.
They cut her flesh with jagged and rusted objects.
They burned her with fire Jutsus.
As they damaged her mind with cruelty and her body with pain, she had only on thought. The thought Naruto had many times in the past. Why, why are they doing this? Why won't they let me die?
She knew the answer, it would have been too easy. They wanted to get out all of their hate. But why?
"Daddy!" she cried "Where are you daddy?"
He didn't show.
No one did.
"What are you doing?" a distant voice asked "Finish her now!"
NO, not like this! She thought desperately looking for an escape.
She found one, better yet she found several. They were in the form of her attackers.
Mind Transfer Jutsu
Using her family's technique, she started her escape. She took control of one of her assailants, a Shinobi.
Once she was in control she made for her helpless body. Grabbing it, she ran for the only safe place she knew.
Home.
Ino released the Jutsu as soon as the mob stopped giving chase. She didn't have the Chakra to go any further.
She limped home.
Finally She thought as she saw the clan.
Ino limped toward the entrance to her home. Before she could get to the door they opened. She saw the comforting figure f her father.
"Daddy!" She cried in joy.
"What are you doing here?" he asked, his voice full of venom.
"D-daddy?" She asked in shock. Her daddy had never taken a tone like that wit her. Even when she insulted the customers.
"You are no child of mine." he hissed "Now get out of here!."
"B-but I..."
"I SAID LEAVE!" He snapped as he drew a kunai. "Or should I finish what the villagers started?"
Ino couldn't believe it, even her own father turned on her. The feeling he was giving off wasn't something she was use to. It wasn't the comforting figure of a parent. This was something both Shinobi and civilian alike were capable of.
Hate.
She did all she could.
She ran.
Maybe she could find someone who wouldn't hate her.
There has to be someone She thought to her self Right?
SAKURA
Sakura too had walked through a light that freed her from the darkness. Now she was in front of the school as well.
"Sakura?" her heart skipped a beat at the sound of the voice.
"Sasuke-Kun" she cheered "You made it from the Baka's Genjutsu."
"Of course" Sasuke stated smugly "The Dobe's skill is nowhere equal to mine."
This is my chance! Sakura thought. There was no one around, no Sensei's, no competition, no anyone.
"S-Sasuke-Kun" she called "would you like to go on a date with me?"
Sasuke stared at her for what felt like an eternity. He's going to say no! She wailed in her mind.
"Sure." he answered before walking away.
D-did he just...? "He agreed?" She asked herself "HE AGREED!"
There was only one thing she could do now.
"MOM!" she shouted as she ran home "I NEED A NEW DRESS FOR MY DATE WITH SASUKE-KUN!"
-DATE-
Sasuke had taken Sakura to the most expensive restaurant in the village. Everyone stared at her with complete respect or envy. It was as she had always imagined it.
They had been very little talk between the two. Sakura was fine with that, they had a comfortable silence.
Now the Uchiha was walking her home. Sasuke-Kun is walking me home! She mentally cheered.
"I had a wonderful evening Sasuke-Kun." Sakura spoke as they arrived to her house.
"Sakura I... would you like to go out again?" He asked nervously.
He's nervous about asking me out? That must mean he likes me! "Yes." she enthusiastically agreed.
Time passed.
Sakura and Sasuke grew closer as they grew older. Her time with him was better than she could have ever imagined. She even got him to open his heart about his family.
"I'm so sorry Sasuke-Kun" she cried alongside him
"It's not your problem Sakura...Chan." Her heart skipped a beat. "Thanks for listening."
"Sasuke-Kun I..."
"Yes." He ushered her.
"I want to help you." she stated weakly before adding strength to her words. "I want to help you reach your goal!"
"Thank you" he whispered "but I could never ask you to face Itachi."
"I didn't mean that part." she stated with a slight purr "I want to help you revive your clan."
"I will not bear an Uchiha child out of wed-lock." He stated with strong conviction.
"I... I'm sorry." She whimpered thanking he was angry.
"Sakura, will you marry?"
"Yes!"
Then and there it happened. The Uchiha showed the Haruno a night of passion and pleasure she never thought possible.
Time passed.
"Push Sakura" the doctors ordered "Just a bit more."
"JUST WHAT DO YOU THINK I'M DOING!?" It seemed child birth increased her already large lungs.
"WAAH WAAH" Two new and innocent voices cried.
"Congratulations Mrs. Uchiha." the doctor spoke "You given birth to a healthy pair of babies."
"My babies, let me see my babies." Sakura weakly ordered.
The doctors handed her the children, both boys. She looked at them with her eyes filled with love only a mother could possess.
Time passed
Sakura was happy.
"Mommy look what daddy taught me." her eldest of the twins spoke
The boy went through the hand signs for a fire Jutsu, a tradition for the Uchiha clan. It was a small flame, but made her swell up with pride.
"Everything okay Sakura?" Sasuke asked as he noticed the tears in her eyes.
She looked at him. She finally had everything she ever wanted. The man of her dreams. Two gifted children she loved with all her heart. Wealth, fame and finally, respect.
"Everything's perfect." She answered honestly.
"Then I guess it's time I stepped in." a voice spoke making her freeze up.
The Uchiha family looked to the one who spoke. There stood one of the people the Uchiha's hated most, Naruto.
"Dobe!" The younger Uchiha growled "What are you doing here?"
What Naruto said froze Sakura to the core "I came to help history repeat itself."
"N-NO, stay away from my family!" Sakura shouted. "STAY AWAY FROM MY BABIES!"
Sasuke ran toward the duo, fully charged Chidori ready. "DOBE" He shouted "TODAY, I WILL FINALLY CRUSH YOU!"
Sakura never understood what happen. One minute Sasuke was going to beat Naruto, then he was just gone. He literally faded out of sight.
"Sasuke-Kun!"
"Daddy!"
Naruto began to walk to them, slowly and purposely.
The two young Uchiha twins ran toward Naruto, blinded with rage.
As they got closer Sakura noticed something horrible. Each step Naruto took destroyed everything around him. The plants withered away and the ground broke away under him.
The Uchiha children didn't stand a chance, they were now held high by their throats. They were at Naruto's mercy.
"And behold, I shall be a blight upon the land" he spoke softly "and everything I touch shall wither and die!"
As he spoke she saw the worse sight she could imagine. Their skin became pale as their bodies became shrunken and frail. Their skins broke away revealing the bones chipping away underneath.
Her children weren't just dying, her babies were withering away.
And she could do nothing about it.
When he was done there was only two piles of dust. They blew away in the wind, forever scattered and away from her.
She looked up at Naruto.
"Please" she begged "kill me."
He merely walked away.
The ground, even reality gave away. All that was left was her, floating on a small rock in oblivion.
Everything she ever wanted or needed was given to her. Her heart's desire was taken away. Now she was truly alone, all that was left was her and a true black abyss.
She wanted to jump and put an end to it all. Something told her it was pointless, that she would fall forever.
Never hitting the bottom.
Never to enjoy death's sweet embrace.
Never to join her family.
SASUKE
"Where are you Dobe?" Sasuke called into the darkness "I'm here to challenge you, just like you did with Itachi!"
"You challenge me huh?" Naruto asked appearing from the shadows "In what?"
"I challenge you to a one on one!"
"A regular match, fine." Naruto agreed "You challenged me so it's your move."
"I am an Uchiha, the Elite." Sasuke spoke arrogantly "What do you hope to do against me?"
"The same as everyone else." Naruto answered "Break you."
Sasuke made the first move. The Uchiha ran forward and started forming hand signs.
Fire style: Fire phoenix Jutsu
A barrage of small fireballs made their way toward Naruto.
Invert
What? Now they were making their way back toward Sasuke.
The young Uchiha raised his hands to block the attack.
It never came, at least not by fire. It came by cold steel.
It started off as numbness that grew into a stinging sensation. It continued to build forcing the Uchiha to open his eyes.
He looked to his arms and saw a thin red line, exactly were the pain was. As the Uchiha tried to flex his hands he noticed they didn't respond. They were numb, as if they weren't his.
Then they fell.
It took Sasuke a moment for him to realize what had just happened. His arms had just fallen off. It took even less time for the pain to kick in.
The Uchiha fell to his knees in agony.
Actually, it would be better to say he fell off his knees in agony. They too had been severed.
Now Sasuke was nothing more than a torso. An angry, Sharingan wielding torso.
"Well now" Naruto began "were have I seen this-OH yeah, with Neji Hyuga."
Naruto stood in front of the limbless Sasuke. The Uchiha tried to attack Naruto, all he managed to do was thrash around in agony, spilling his blood.
After a pointless moment, he began to slow down. He was getting dizzy and tired So tired he thought.
It was all because of his thrashing around. The movement forced more blood out of the body. Now Sasuke was near unconsciousness as well as death.
"Well" Sasuke asked weakly "aren't you going to kill me?"
Naruto didn't answer, he just raised his elemental sword high into the air.
I'll finally rejoin my clan. Sasuke thought with a slight bit of peace.
Before shouting out in unholy pain.
Sasuke looked to the sword Naruto had burning into his arm. He's cauterizing the wound! Sasuke realized. When Naruto finished the first arm he moved to the next, then the legs. Naruto wasn't killing him, he was preventing the Uchiha's death.
"W-why don't y-y-you j-just kill me!?" Sasuke asked in pain and anger.
"You don't fear death, you welcome it." Naruto answered "Your punishment must be more severe."
"T-torture?" Sasuke asked as fear built.
"Yes" Naruto answered "but not of the body. It will be of the soul."
Sasuke looked at Naruto, for a moment he thought he would finally see his family, his parents. Then Naruto took it away from him.
NO, I will not be denied! Sasuke thought angrily.
The young Uchiha opened his mouth and slammed it shut with all the force he could muster. His teeth tore through his tongue as if it were a marshmallow.
He gave Naruto a smirk as his consciousness faded.
It was met with a smirk from the blonde.
Naruto shoved his elemental sword into Sasuke's mouth. Hard enough to force it's way in, but soft enough to stop on the wounded tongue. A true contradiction.
His mouth was met with the same situation as his limbs.
"Did you think I'd let you go that easily?" Naruto asked "No, you don't get to go yet." Naruto stated in a matter-of fact tone "When your dreams are in ashes, then you have my permission to die."
What does he mean by that? Sasuke asked himself.
"Earlier this week I was met with an intruder in my home." Naruto stated "Not uncommon, a lot of people want me dead." Sasuke agreed with that. "The funny part was who it was." Naruto turned his head to the darkness and called. "BRING HIM IN."
In popped several Naruto clones carrying a struggling figure.
The sight filled Sasuke with horror and fear.
It was a beaten and bloody Itachi Uchiha. The elder Uchiha looked as if he were about to collapse from either exhaustion or pain, maybe both.
The clones forced Itachi to his knees in front of the two. The elder Uchiha locked eyes with the younger one.
"H-hello Sasuke-Kun" Itachi rasped "I bet y-you're enj-joying the sight.
The honest truth, he wasn't. It was supposed to be him that brought Itachi to his knees. Not Naruto!
"Say your fair wells." Naruto ordered.
He raised his Kusanagi high...
And brought it down on Itachi's neck.
But not before he could utter.
"I'll tell mom and dad you said hi."
The only sound was the thud of a head hitting the ground.
"Wait a sec!" Naruto exclaimed "Didn't you have a second dream?" he looked as if he were deep in thought before snapping his fingers "That's right, you also wanted to revive your clan."
Now Sasuke was feeling despair.
Naruto raised his Kusanagi blade and took aim at the Uchiha family jewels. It happened in a flash, the blade extended and retracted. It had severed the Uchiha's...yeah.
"Now we add fire to stop the bleeding" Naruto actually sung as he did just that "and sing of the mental help you'll be needing."
Naruto walked away, but not before leaving Sasuke with a gift. He lifted Sasuke up right so the Uchiha could see.
The area became a cemetery. Not just any cemetery, it was one Sasuke visited often. It was the Uchiha cemetery.
His parent's grave stood before him.
Mom, dad he thought bitterly I-I'm sorry that I couldn't... He couldn't bring himself to finish.
He could only sit there, not even having enough will to cry.
KAKASHI
Kakashi was tired of dark tunnels. He new Naruto had something planned for him, but he was ready. He truly felt Naruto couldn't do anything worse than before.
Oh how wrong he was.
"K-Kakashi-Kun" a weak feminine voice called "Why didn't you save me?"
Kakashi felt his heart snap "Rin!?" He asked "Nonono, this is just Genjutsu!"
"You didn't watch after your comrade" an older silver headed man stated in disappointment. "Has my life truly been in vain that my own son is a disappointment?"
"F-father?" Kakashi couldn't believe his ears.
"I'm just as much to blame." another voice spoke "It seems my lessons didn't sink into that skull of yours."
"Sensei?"
"Don't call me that!" Minota snapped "If you can't follow my lessons then I can't be your teacher." he gave the younger Jounin a sneer "Look at you, playing favorites. Did I ever play favorites with your team?"
"N-no but I...I...I"
"You what?" Rin weakly asked
"I owes a debt to Obito" Kakashi weakly finished "So I...
"No" a new voice spoke.
A new figure limped and joined the argument. His entire right side looked as if it had been crushed. The left eye was sending a truly hateful glare.
It was Obito Uchiha.
"I gave you that eye to protect Rin" Obito stated "What do you do, you let her die!" he shouted "Then you go get lazy and become an awful teacher. You taught your team nothing."
"I trained you better then that." Minota stated
"I've used this eye to protect this village and many of my comrades." Kakashi tried to reason
Naruto appeared from the shadows.
"But you couldn't protect a child" he asked "Could you Inu-San?"
"We can forgive not protecting me." Rin stated "We are Shinobi and our lives are in constant threat."
"We can forgive you being a horrible teacher." Minota continued "Not everyone is suited for it."
"We can't forgive you" Obito started "for becoming a hypocrite."
As one they spoke "Those who abandon the rules are trash but those who abandon their comrades are less than trash."
"They're scum!" Naruto spat.
"I think it's time I take back what's mine." Obito whispered.
The Uchiha limped forward, arm extended. Kakashi had nowhere to go, nowhere to hide. His Sensei would just find him.
He could only scream as the fingers dug into his eye socket.
And yanked.
IRUKA
Iruka knew that he was in more trouble than ever. Whatever Naruto had planned would make his next punishment look tame. If that's possible and he feared it was.
"Hello Iruka, how are you feeling?" Naruto asked in a low voice.
"I-I'm doing fine Naruto." Iruka answered nervously.
"We'll have to fix that." Naruto stated.
Iruka had clamps form around his wrist and ankles. They spread themselves out and latched onto the wall behind him.
The whole darkness faded. It became a dark and murky room.
"The doctor is in."
Naruto made his way toward Iruka, Kunai drawn. He cut away at the Chunin's jacket and shirt exposing his chest.
Naruto proceeded to a circle about an inch into his flesh around Iruka's chest with the Kunai's tip. He then turned the blade to it's side and carved the circular flesh. He repeated the process two more time at random points on Iruka's chest.
He let out a hollow laugh as Iruka's cried.
Naruto grabbed his Kusanagi blade and raised it high. He brought it down repeatedly on one of Iruka's legs, cutting only half way through with each strike.
Once he had finished, he moved to the other leg.
Naruto then drew his elemental blade. He heated up two Kunai with concentrated raw fire Chakra. He slowly drove them through Iruka's hands, going inch by inch.
When it had finally made it's way through, he stopped with the fire Chakra. He tied a thin piece of ninja wire from both ends of the Kunai to his elemental sword. He began to pump them full with lighting Chakra.
Iruka couldn't describe the pain he felt. Every cell in his body was literally being electrocuted.
He wasn't even given the chance to black out.
Naruto drew another Kunai and made a deep incision from Iruka's chest to his stomach. He dug both hands in before ripping Iruka's chest cavity open. He could only howl in pain as Naruto continued to laugh.
"Why, why are you doing this?" he asked through his tears.
"Let me tell you something." Naruto began joyfully. "I'm not completely...with it." He removed the liver. "I'm on the crazy train and there's no station in sight!" He squeezed a kidney until it was goo in his hand. "When I was born, I was beaten with the mental stick!" He cut the spleen with a Kunai. "I'm a thread loose of a tapestry!" He yanked on the small intestines "I'm one cupcake short of a bakery!"
"YOUR INSANE!" Iruka shouted
"BINGO!" Naruto agreed.
The blond brought a Kunai down into Iruka's heart.
The citizens on Konoha couldn't believe the brutality they were seeing. Many were emptying their stomachs onto the ground as they viewed the horrors.
"Hokage-Sama, you have to stop him!"
"No, I don't." Tsunade stated "As long as they're alive and can function, no rule has been broken."
They watched as Iruka was put together and brought back to life.
Only for the torture to continue, death would have been a blessing.
HAYATE
"Hayate, oh Hayate." Naruto called "Come out, come out, where ever you are."
Hayate had used the only Genjutsu he knew. It was a camouflage type, now he was hidden in the darkness.
Or so he thought.
Naruto was a senor nin. He knew the exact spot Hayate was trying to hide.
Above.
He just decided to humor the Jounin with false hope. It made the fear all the sweeter.
Naruto felt the Chakra shift and knew Hayate was going to attack.
The Chunin raised his Kusanagi sword as Hayate fell from the ceiling. The tip of their swords met and balanced the Jounin. With a surge of Chakra, they were separated.
"I'm going to kill you (cough)!" Hayate screamed.
"Come." Naruto ordered.
Hayate focused as much Chakra into his own sword before charging Naruto. The amount he had shined over the blade.
Naruto met it head on with the Kusanagi blade.
They were in a power struggle until Naruto drew his second sword.
Hayate drew back with caution.
"Coward" Hayate spoke "You (cough) can't face me in (cough) a Kenjutsu match?"
This caught Naruto by surprise.
"A single Kenjutsu match?" the blond murmured "Fine, but on my terms."
"(cough)I'm listening?" Hayate spoke.
"No Kenjutsu related Jutsu" Naruto began "No Chakra, no anything other than skill."
"Deal!" Hayate readily agreed.
He believed that with his skills and experience, that he had the upper hand.
Naruto charged forward, both blades drawn.
Hayate stabbed his sword forward intent on impaling Naruto.
Naruto jumped over the blade and swung at Hayate's head. The Jounin quickly stepped back and blocked with his sword. The weight in these blows are ridiculous! Hayate thought. He quickly pushed Naruto off and back a few feet.
I need time to think Hayate panicked I can't keep this up without Chakra!
Naruto ran forward again, his own blade intent on impaling.
Hayate jumped to the side and attempted to sever Naruto's arms. The blond simply continued forward avoiding the blow.
Giving Hayate a clear view of his back.
The Jounin drew a few Kunai with explosive tags from his pouch. He through them toward Naruto and they were right on target.
They would have hit had Naruto not spun around with a gust of lighting. It sent the charged metals back at the Jounin.
They landed at his feet and he almost laughed. He would have laughed if the explosive notes hadn't gone off. He was just lucky they were low powered, he might have lost a limb.
For now he was just stun...
Unable to move...
With Naruto around...
He wished the explosion had killed him.
"You just couldn't do it." Naruto chastised "You couldn't meet me on even ground."
Naruto watched as Hayate picked himself up, barely. The Jounin felt an invisible force push him against the dark wall.
His own sword began to float in front of him.
The blade flew toward the Jounin with great speed. It was thanks to years of experience that his body acted, grabbing the blade between his hands.
"Impressive." Naruto admitted.
The invisible force returned against the blade.
Again.
And again.
And again.
It pushed against the butt of the sword, forcing it through Hayate's stomach. Hayate tried to resist but the blows grew stronger each time. Naruto finally stopped when it was halfway through.
Naruto walked up to talk "Well t..."
Hayate didn't let him finish. He grabbed the blond in one hand, holding tight. With the other, he removed the sword and put it to Naruto's neck.
"Oooh scary." Naruto mocked.
Hayate tried to forced the blade through Naruto's neck. He would have succeeded if Naruto hadn't scattered in a mass of black petals.
The black petals reformed and became a mass of shurikens. They rained down mercilessly onto the Jounin.
When they stopped, he could only glare at Naruto.
"Go ahead" he growled "kill (cough) me."
"No" Naruto spoke "Your disease is doing that for me."
"Wh-(cough)(cough)(cough)"
He couldn't continue, Hayate was hit with a coughing fit. It was worse than any he'd ever had before.
Soon he fell to his knees coughing up blood. His body fell over, paralyzed from the disease.
"It hurt's doesn't it?" Naruto asked, though he already knew. "To know that a disease will be the cause of your death. Not a Shinobi way to go, like poison."
The look in Hayate's eyes said so many hateful things. All he could manage was "(cough)(cough)(cough)(cough)"
He barely noticed Naruto place a red vial on the ground, barely. He gave the blond a questioning glare.
"This is full of my blood." Naruto stated "If you drink this...your disease will be cured."
Hayate couldn't believe his ears. A chance of relief? He thought with hope.
"You can have it" But there was a catch. "If you can get it." Naruto spoke. "It'll only be there for a three minutes."
He stepped away from the vial...
That he placed ten feet away.
That's not fair! Hayate couldn't move.
His cure was right there...
But he couldn't reach it.
It might as well have been a mile away, hidden in enemy territory.
"So close" Naruto whispered "Yet so far. 2 minutes and 13 seconds left."
ASUMA
Asuma knew he was in trouble, he had opened his mouth one time to many. He knew Naruto was waiting, saving him for last. So he needed to go on the offensive.
And he did.
Let's see if Kurenai's lectures were worth anything. He thought dryly.
Kai
He released a burst of Chakra that dispelled the darkness Genjutsu.
Only to show more darkness. Double layered?
And a surprised Naruto.
"Asuma-San" Naruto stated in actual surprise "How did you...?"
"My girlfriend is the Mistress of Genjutsu." Asuma stated as he lit another cigarette. "You think she'd let me go if I couldn't even release a Genjutsu?"
"True." Naruto agreed
"Now." Asuma began mockingly "Why don't you be a good Chunin and let me out of here."
"Excuse me, I am a Shinobi." Naruto began "I am the fuck-mothering boogeyman!" he grinned "I AM FEAR!" he laughed "I have broken a lot of minds to get this title, I deserve to be caused such."
"And I am one of the Twelve Guardian Ninja." he scoffed "You don't hear me bragging."
"..."
"But I could."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"Aren't you...?"
"DODGE!"
That's exactly what Asuma did, barely. Naruto had swung his inflamed elemental blade at Asuma's head. Had the Jounin been any slower, he'd be a real hot head.
Naruto didn't stop there, he swung and released wave after wave.
Asuma continued to dance like a monkey.
But he wasn't a Jounin for dancing around attacks.
With each step Asuma took to avoid a blow, he got closer. Soon Naruto would be in range for a counter-attack.
Now! The Jounin thought.
He ran forward, trench knives drawn and ready for action.
Naruto saw this and ran forward to meet the challenge.
The two Shinobi jumped forward and met in air. Their weapons struck and the landed back-to-back.
Only both of Naruto's arms were on the ground.
He didn't even try to evade. Asuma thought Was he really that cocky?
"You shouldn't have messed with a Jounin." Asuma spoke "You'll only..."
He got no further.
Naruto had turned and delivered a devastating kick to Asuma's sides. It had enough force to knock him onto his back.
Asuma watched in awe and horror as Naruto's arms grew back.
"You forgot something important fool." Naruto chastised "This is all a Genjutsu."
"Well then" Asuma spoke as he took another puff "I'll just have to break through." he gained a cocky smile "Give me your worse, let's see who Kurenai taught better, me or you."
"Then feed on your own despair." Naruto whispered
The area turned red...No Asuma thought. The darkness was bleeding! He realized. How the hell does emptiness bleed?
The blood began to move around and take form. It was the form of a foxes upper body, then a second.
Asuma didn't know what was happening. He knew what he was seeing was Genjutsu, that's all it could be. What he didn't know was Naruto was pouring concentrated fear directly at him.
He wanted my worse Naruto thought grimly Well here it is.
Asuma could do only one thing.
He ran.
He forgot one thing, he was in Naruto's Genjutsu. There was nowhere he could go or hide that Naruto couldn't get him.
How long have I been running? He asked himself. He didn't know, but he could stop.
Not now, not ever.
As he ran, he looked over his shoulder and saw the foxes behind him.
Always behind him...
Always chasing.
Wait, what's that? He asked himself with a sliver of hope.
It was a light, a chance.
"No." Naruto spoke from behind.
Asuma felt Chakra pass through his leg. He was familiar with this Chakra, it was the one he used.
It was wind Chakra.
His leg had been severed.
He couldn't go any further.
Asuma turned to see Naruto standing in between the two foxes.
"Y-You-WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?" Asuma shouted "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE DIFFERENT THAN ANYONE OF US?"
"BITCH I EAT PEOPLE!" Naruto yelled
"W-What?"
"Devour" Naruto ordered.
The foxes fell onto Asuma.
They tugged at his three remaining limbs, tearing them off. They ate like starved animals, and they continued to eat. The tore his stomach open at let his innards fall out. They nibbled, savoring each and every bite they could.
One snapped at his neck, tearing out his throat in the process. With a second snap, his head was disconnected from his body.
Asuma was conscious of every piece being taken away. He felt the pain he never thought possible. Naruto wouldn't let death come easily.
When the blood foxes finished, not even bone remained.
"How was he?" Naruto asked the creatures.
"He tasted like a monkey." One stated gagging.
"A monkey that's passed it's prime." The second stated.
"Hokage-Sama!" Yugao cried "You can't let this continue!"
"He still has plenty of time left" Tsunade calmly spoke.
"But..."
"He needs to be stopped!"
"You all can't join the fray" Tsunade stated as she held up the documents "None of you signed the contract."
This was their chance, to stop the madness and torture. All they had to do was sign.
And face Naruto's wrath.
"I don't know..." Anko stated "I'd like to keep the little sanity I have."
The giant Genjutsu screen drew their attention.
"Naruto, what are you doing with that badger?"
"It's not a badger, it's a honey badger." Naruto corrected
"You mean the one that..." Naruto cut him off.
"Yeah." Naruto grinned "The one that doesn't give a shit."
"Well people" Naruto spoke "How was it?"
"I-it was horrible." Iruka whimpered
"You survived my hatred with your minds in tact" Naruto congratulated "But I have some bad news."
"What?" Kakashi asked
"You're going back."
"But it's over!" Ino shouted
"No, it's not." Naruto spoke "I'm nowhere near done."
"He can't do that Hokage-Sama!" Hana shouted
"Actually he can" Kyuubi countered "He's only used up a few minutes."
"What, impossible!" Anko shouted
"We've been altering time from both sides" Tayuya stated motioning to Kyuubi "He speeds it up time for them but we slow it down for you."
"In all honesty, he used up about fifteen minutes."
The torture continued, for everyone.
The fools who signed the contract only wanted death. Every torture Naruto did only got worse and worse.
The villagers couldn't look away. They were stuck too far in awe and horror. It was like an accident that one.
The Mistresses watched, powerless to defend their boyfriends and brother.
The only ones not suffering were the Himes. They just pretty much sat back and watched.
"I can't take this anymore!" Anko shouted "Give me that stupid paper, I'm signing!"
"Same as us." The Mistresses spoke.
"I've already told you it's too late." I need a drink. Tsunade thought clearly annoyed "Unless Naru-Kun accepts, there's no way in."
"I have a plan" Yugao spoke.
They huddled into a circle and listened.
"Are you sure it will work?"
"It did for everyone else."
"We have little choice."
"Agreed."
"Hokage-Sama, we want to sign." before she could be cut off, she continued "We know how to get him to allow us."
"Fine."
They signed, one by one.
Anko
Hana
Kurenai
Yugao
It was done.
Kurenai stepped forward.
"NARUTO UZUMAKI" she shouted with a Genjutsu amplified voice, it gained his attention.
"WE HAVE SIGNED THE CONTRACT!" Hana spoke with the aid of the Genjutsu.
"WE EACH CHALLENGE YOU!"
"WE THE MISTRESSES OF KONOHA CHALLENGE YOU!" They continued "PURE SKILL AGAINST SKILL!"
"SENSEI'S VS STUDENT, DO YOU ACCEPT?" They asked, when he didn't reply they continued "ARE YOU AFRAID OF US NARUTO?"
The doors swung open. Naruto had accepted their challenge.
"I am fear" Naruto's voice stated "and fear fears nothing!"
They walked in.
