Chapter Six
They traveled nonstop after the massacre. Always moving, never slowing down. Whenever they stopped to rest for the night, they would train until they were exhausted, barely having enough energy to eat. It took eight weeks to get to their destination. Three of those weeks Durga wouldn't even speak, until Naruto came up to her, giving her a good punch in the face, telling her how stupid she was being. These actions lead to an all-out brawl between the two kids. In the end Naruto won, yelling at her that her people helped her escape to let her live her life, not morn over their deaths for her whole life. She should be living each day to the fullest while getting stronger so nothing like that would ever happen again. After that, Durga was smiling again, not as big, but it was a start for her to heal.
Naruto sighed lightly as he looked over the sea, in the distance he could see an island, but it was surrounded by whirlpools as far as he could tell. "Snake-chan, how much longer until we reach our destination?" He asked Anko.
She chuckled at the impatience in his voice, looking over to Kakashi, who nodded at her. Turning back to the dragon masked child she spoke," Well, that island is where we are headed, but there is a trick into getting there."
"What do you mean, trick?" Durga asked, as she entered the conversation. She was just as impatient as Naruto about getting to their more intense training, which wouldn't happen until they were on that island.
"The island itself is called Uzugakure, and it's surrounded by whirlpools, which is how it got its name. Only one of the Uzumakis will be able to open the passage way, by using their own blood." Kakashi spoke up, he looked around before making a little noise of success, walking over to and unassuming boulder. Turning back to Naruto, he held out a kunai to the boy. "The seal is on this rock, you need to smear your blood on it to open the passage way up."
Naruto looked a little skeptical, but took the weapon anyway. Moving towards the rock, he didn't even wince as he slit his hand and smeared the blood upon the stone. As je turned back around, he was surprised a bit when Kakashi knelt down to wrap his hand up. It was still odd to him that people actually cared about him.
"Thank you, Wolf-san." Naruto murmured lightly, before looking back up and gapping slightly at the sight before him. The sea itself split open, creating a passage straight to the island. He didn't move until Kakashi tapped his shoulder, then he started to go forward. The trip over wasn't that long, and soon they arrived on the beach of the island. It was very beautiful, marginally surround by a cove, and a few huts. They followed the overgrown trail, which lead right into the village ruins. Their breaths all caught in their throats.
"It's…so mesmerizing." Naruto stated, and truly it was. Despite the fact that most the village lay in pieces, it still held an aura of power that seemed to overpower the senses. The cobble stone roads, and vines that grew along the broken buildings. In the center was a fountain, with a statue that was familiar to Naruto. It was Kijuu the dragon, from old man Chu's story!
"Hey gaki, I think it's time for you three to unlock your demon forms." The fox suddenly spoke, bringing Naruto out of his reverence.
"And how are we supposed to do that?" Naruto thought, as the group headed to the largest building, which seemed to be the most stable and undamaged than the rest. Naruto had to use his blood again for them to enter the building, which seemed to be the main clan building.
"You have to meditate, but it is a long, exhausting, and meticulous meditation, as it requires you to use your energy to pull out your form. By the end of it you gakis are gunna be so tired you'll probably sleep for three days." Kurama stated.
Naruto nodded mentally to the fox, before telling Kakashi what the beast said. "If it's really that strenuous, I suggest you do it after dinner." Kakashi indicated to the blond haired boy.
"I was thinking the same thing." Naruto agreed. So they waited till after dinner to pull the other two kids out in the back yard, explaining the process. "Kurama told me in more detail, that it's just trying to find our source of youkai rather than our chakra. They are closely related, but aren't the same thing. Chakra is our life force, something we need to survive, and live. Our youkai, is more like an extra power source, but more than that. To us, it's our will, we don't need it, but yet we do. To find that will, that source of power, we will need to meditate until we grasp at it. From there, you should be able to handle the rest on your own." Naruto finished his speech.
The other two nodded towards him as they began, with their guardians gazing upon them, keeping watch. Each child stayed in their position, as they meditated deeply. Durga was the first to get her form. After about eight hours, she felt something different in her. It was powerful, and fiery, yet tempered. When she finally grasped ahold of that feeling she pulled and felt her body shift, and her clothes ripped. The anbu, who was Atika, was on watch was able to feel the power shift in the air. Looking over at the children, she gasped as she watched Durga slowly transformed into a white tiger with black stripes as her eyes glowed in a fiery orange color. The demon form had to be as big as a horse! After Durga explored around a bit in her new form, she transformed back into a child, which Atika thankfully had her cloak to wrap her in so she could go get some more clothes on.
Kiba was the next to gain his form, turning into an oversized German shepherd. He spent the next two hours messing with the anbu, and being chased and cursed at by his aunt. When he changed back, Kiba found himself running away naked, from two angry nindogs and an angry woman.
It took several more hours before Naruto showed any signs of his change, and didn't they all feel it. The power that radiated from the blond commanded for attention, and respect. It was the most regal and powerful aura they had ever felt in their lives. It nearly brought them to their knees. When they all rushed outside to see the blonde's form, they all stumbled to a stop at the sight of him. Right before them stood a gigantic silver and blond wolf that had aqua blue wings sprouting from its back, as well as horns grown from its forehead. Along his jaw and down his chest were blue scales that shined so elegantly, like the finest jewels no money could ever buy. Naruto let out a ferocious roar, which they thought was a call out towards the heavens, before he promptly transformed back and passed out.
Just like Kurama said, once the excitement of the day wore off, the three kids fell into a fitful sleep for the next few days. When they awoke, Kakashi sat them down and explained their training schedule for the next four years. As the details were explained, each of their grins grew in pure pleasure.
*Four Years Later*
It was a new year in Konoha as the village was soon talking about the new class that was to enter into the ninja academy. Apparently, there were seven children, from the big clans in Konoha, six of which were future heirs to the clan heads. Though, currently in the streets running towards the hokage tower was a ginning whiskered faced blonde.
Cackling loudly, Naruto glanced behind him and saw his pursuers. "You're gunna have to be faster than that if you want to catch me dog breath!" he yelled at his friend, who was happily smirking and giving chase. Naruto suddenly jumped up on top of the roofs, dodging a sneak attack coming from his side," Nice try kitten, bur you'll have to do better than that!" and the childish giggles continued on all the way to the hokage tower. When they were lead inside, Naruto smirked as he saw Sarutobi neck deep in paper work. Chuckling he spoke up," Hey old man, long time no see!"
Naruto swore he never seen Hiruzen's head snap up so fast, nor had he ever seen his grin so wide. "It has been quite some time since I last saw you hasn't" he said, before he got up and pulled the young Uzumaki in a hug," Welcome home, Naruto…"
A/N: So my sixth chapter! I'm happy to get this one out of the way. I skipped the training because I can't seem to writing action real good, but I will try to include some backflashes to training in future chapters. So I hope you review, and thanks to all who have already.
