Sakura had worked diligently to heal Neji and the other downed contestants alongside her mentor, all things considered it was pretty slow compared to her usual work load in the hospital from her fellow genin getting in training accidents and civilians having work related injuries.

She was about to release Choji when she felt the beginnings of a genjutsu on her and she dispelled it. Right then all of her fellow medic ninjas came in either carrying patients or holding surgical tools like weapons. Her mentor who was one of the weapon users looked to her quickly. "Sakura! There's an invasion going on outside, you need to help us get these patients to a bunker near here!"

The pink haired girl always thought that she'd go into a panic if something like this happened, that she'd immediately be a hindrance to everyone around her but she was wrong on all accounts. In the moments to come after the invasion she'd swear that it was like a switch had been flipped within her brain because she started thinking things through with cold calculations and nodded before turning to Choji.

"I'm going to need your help, use your clan jutsu so you can carry the patients and stand in the middle of our group."

Turning to the others she scoffed at their use of medical tools. "You're medical ninja so act like it! We have jutsu that can kill and save lives so use them!"

All of the medics nodded and dropped the tools. Sakura quickly had the entire group in order and led the way.

(With Naruto)

Naruto jumped up and looked around until he caught sight of Ino and Shikamaru back to back fighting off a group of sound shinobi in the bleachers as another group of shinobi helped a large group of civilians evacuate.

He saw as the sound ninja attempted to separate them and he jumped in with a quick snap kick to a ninjas jaw sending him flying. In the same moment he had landed he quickly pierced through a second sound ninjas chest with a Chidori.

Shikamaru smirked. "Thanks Naruto but we've got it handled up here. You go find that Gaara guy, I have a distinct feeling that he's important in all of this and it's not going to be good for any of us if he gets away."

Naruto nodded and killed a few more ninja on his way out.

Ino smirked as well as she deflected a punch and plunged her kunai into the soft flesh of her opponents throat. "He sure is an odd guy, kind and gentle one moment and a cold and calculating shinobi the next."

Shikamaru grunted as he used his shadow to strangle six different opponents. "He's a rare breed of shinobi that can balance their personal lives and shinobi lives, most either become drones or die."

(With Naruto)

The blonde caught up to the siblings pretty quickly seeing as they didn't do much of anything to hide their tracks. "Probably expected that everyone would be too focused on the utter chaos to actually chase them down." He'd said to the giant fox in his mind who had agreed with him.

As soon as he caught up he had to jump over a volley of senbon that shot out of Kankuro's puppet. As he landed he unsealed a basic katana in his left hand and a ninjatō in his right hand. Kankuro spoke quickly. "Temari! Take Gaara and run, I'll handle the Uchiha wannabe."

As the dirty blonde girl left with her redheaded brother the puppet user started his attack. Kankuro had his puppet shootout hundreds of projectiles in rapid fire and Naruto used his ninjatō to deflect as many as possible while dodging the others.

The blonde knew that if it wasn't for his implanted sharingan he'd have been shredded by now or he'd be poisoned and left for dead so he had to finish this quick. Using a sealless shadow clone jutsu he created a single shadow clone behind his opponent and it knocked him out.

Running past the unconscious puppet user Naruto continued to chase down Temari and Gaara.

(With the Kage)

As soon as the first petal fell all five Kage jumped up to the very top of the building where four sound ninja jumped in. Before they could do anything Hiruzen spoke. "Now Tayuya!"

One of the sound ninja, who had an obvious baby bump pulled out a flute and started playing it. Her melody summoned huge golems that immediately attacked her supposed allies and held them down.

The elder hokage nodded with a smile. "Good job, now where is Karin?"

Tayuya jabbed her thumb behind her. "Killing our former allies and making her way to your hospital, something about wanting to stop them from hurting anyone there. Hell, we were able to get others in on this and they are headed for different places all over Konoha to protect them and lead the civilians to safety."

(With Iruka)

Iruka was standing just outside of a ninjutsu barrier around the academy fighting off any one of the sound and sand ninja that got close with his fellow chunin instructors. He was cutting down a sound ninja when he caught sight of a pale kid around Naruto's age cutting down the same ninjas but from behind them.

When each of the shinobi were dead Iruka was finally able to get a look at the boys weapons and was surprised to see that they were bone swords. "A member of the Kaguya clan, I thought that your clan had gone extinct."

The boy nodded. "Almost, it's just me and my big brother now. My name's Shiro by the way."

(With Haku)

The moment the invasion began the hospital was one of the first places that the sound and sand ninja came after. Haku used his Hyoton to disable the sand ninja and kill the sound ninjas in a quick and efficient manner.

Within a couple minutes Haku had multiple sand ninja locked up in ice chains and the sound ninja corpses in a block of ice to the side. Right then a group of ANBU came in that he recognized as Hiruzen's personal ANBU corps. Bowing slightly he spoke up. "Glad you're all here, help me lead the nurses, doctors, and patients to a bunker."

(With Yugito)

Yugito was ordered to lead civilians to safety when she was surrounded by enemies. Quickly using Matatabi's chakra Yugito was able to change her fingernails into cat-like claws and got into her personal taijutsu stance. "Come on then, I've been itching for a fight with you sacks of shit ever since Raikage-sama has told me about this invasion!"

The cat Biju smiled from within her seal. "That's my kitten, let 'em have it!"

As the sound ninja ran forward her claws were engulfed in azure flames and she started tearing her opponents down in the twos and threes.

As this slaughter happened the blonde girl lost track of a few of the sound ninja and they hit her with a combined sound wave jutsu that knocked her on her face. As she was turning around she caught sight of two kunai mid flight being caught by the single largest arm she's ever seen and it was attached to the boy she'd fought earlier.

Turning his head so he could look at the blonde girl over his shoulder Choji smiled brightly. "Hi again, need some help?"

Before Yugito could answer the young Akimichi turned to the sound ninja with the coldest look any Akimichi had ever given anyone. "First you attack my home, then you target civilians and academy students, and now you're attacking someone from their back?! You are the most spineless, cowardly, and the absolute weakest little shit stains to ever walk this land so I'll kill you where you stand."

Choji used his expanded arm to slap the sound ninja into a building then he hit them again but this time into the pavement. Using the size of his hands he crushed the enemy shinobi to death.

Yugito was in a shock at being rescued by the guy that she'd just earlier soundly defeated, and yet it turned her on. "I know I'd usually encourage such actions kitten but calm your hormones for now, this is a warzone not a bedroom. Just to let you know, you should definitely tie the knot with him."

This shocked her more than anything. "What?! Why?!"

Matatabi purred a little. "He's stronger than most others, can admit defeat to a woman, and is obviously very honorable for a ninja. I bet he'd even blush and try to look away the first time you show even the smallest amount of extra skin."

The thought alone almost made her giggle. Apparently Choji saw that she'd spaced out and tapped her shoulder, when she was focused on his face she saw splashes of blood and some minor cuts and bruises. She looked down further and saw some cuts and scratches on his armor and some burn marks on his sleeves, his forehead protector was even more dented than before. "Did this happen because you had to save me?"

The large boy smiled happily at the worry in her voice. "Oh this? I'd have gotten this anyway with the invasion going on plus I can't just let an ally die let alone one as pretty as you."

This made the female jinchuuriki blush while Matatabi was purring even louder. "Oh and he gives such sweet compliments, you definitely need to marry this one kitten."

Before anything else could be said the pink haired medic ninja came through with her hand coated in her chakra (chakra scaple) with other medic ninjas and a bunch of patients behind her. "Come on Choji, you can't just run off without warning!"

At that point she noticed the slightly injured jinchuuriki and smiled. "Ah I see, you saw someone in danger and you went to help out huh. Good job."

Choji smiled and looked back to the blonde girl. "Do you want to help us out? We're trying to get these patients to a nearby bunker and have been gathering civilians along the way, we could definitely use someone as strong as you."

Yugito didn't even give Matatabi a chance to speak and nodded. "I was ordered to give assistance in protecting the civilian population so I can join you."

If at all possible Choji's smile got even bigger and brighter. "Great! You can walk with me up front!"

(With Naruto)

Naruto had followed Temari and Gaara to the northern gates and far past them until he was in a close enough distance to fire off a Phoenix flower jutsu that was immediately blocked by a wall of sand.

Temari let her brother go and grabbed her fan off of her back. "Go! I'll catch up with you later."

Gaara stood up tall and looked to his older sibling. "Don't disappoint me, mother is awfully bloodthirsty today and I may just quench her thirst with your blood sister."

As he left Temari blocked Naruto's way. 'I can't let him through! Not when Gaara is like this!'

Naruto gave the girl a cold look that could freeze hell fire. "You're in my way, I know for a fact that your brother is the jinchuuriki of the one tailed raccoon Shukaku, I know that your village is in on this invasion, I discovered your plot from the day of the first exam and had people within your ranks from the preliminaries gathering Intel and bringing it to me to bring to lord hokage, your plans failed the moment you decided to invade my village."

Temari was shaking in her boots. 'T-this kid is scarier than Gaara, h-he's so cold and calculating. It's like he's looking right into my soul for every one of my weaknesses! He could kill me at any second so why doesn't he and just get it over with?!'

That's when Naruto's eyes go from cold steel to warm and understanding. "I also know that your people are being tricked into this, a rogue ninja from our village known as Orochimaru killed your father and took his place as the Kazekage to lead you all into your deaths just so he could come after my eyes and to kill Lord hokage. You can stop right now and let me through, I'll stop your brother and help him regain his sanity then we can all go back and put a stop to this pointless bloodshed."

For a moment, a single moment Temari was tempted but then that cold look flashed back in her mind and she raised her battle fan. "If you really do want to help us then leave, I'll even give my father a recommendation to let you join us in the sand village."

Naruto sighed. "It seems you can't be reasoned with then." The blonde looked at her with his cold sharingan eyes once more as he got back into his kenjutsu stance. "Fine, I'll just have to force you to move."

Temari swung her fan and Released a large blast of wind chakra and Naruto used the Grand fireball jutsu which overpowered the wind and grew to twice its original size and had flecks of azure blue in it.

As the chakra fire came close to her Temari tried to block it with her open fan and all it did was destroy her only weapon.

The girl was sent flying backwards from the force of the wind enhanced fireball with multiple burns and multiple burn holes in her clothes.

Naruto flared his chakra. 'two. Captured. Sand. Continue. North.'

(With Kakashi)

Kakashi was fighting side by side with Zabuza and Gai as they killed multiple sound and sand ninja when they felt narutos chakra spike. The silver haired jounin chuckled. "That's my student, he's going after the jinchuuriki! This will be over soon."

(With the Kage)

Hiruzen smirked as he looked to his old student. "And there you have it, your so called 'secret weapon' is soon to be taken down by my top genin. I think that this earns him the promotion, don't you three?"

The other three nodded as Orochimaru scowled.

Hiruzen stepped forward. "I'll make you a deal Orochimaru, defeat me in a one on one battle and you'll be allowed to leave but if I win you not only give up and allow us to put chakra sealers on you but you give me all of your research notes and lab locations."

The snake summoner smirked and nodded. "Of course sensei, I wouldn't have it any other way. Once I've killed you that little traitor and all of her fellow traitors will die as well."

(With Naruto)

The blonde avenger caught up quick and was forced to dodge to the side so as not to be hit with a large ball of compressed sand. As he landed Naruto used Wind style: wind bullet jutsu to hit Gaara but only one of the six small balls of wind hit him and it turned out to have only been a sand clone.

Gaara showed himself and he wasn't the same person he'd just seen running away. Kurama growled. "Kit, he's in his first state, the halfway point between where he was before and the full transformation. Be careful."

Naruto didn't waste any time activating the chakra chains and using them to bat around Gaara. The battle had lasted for about ten minutes before Gaara had enough and went into full transformation. "Kit! You're nowhere near strong enough to use those chains against a Biju, use my power!"

Naruto shook his head. "No, your chakra is a last resort." With that he made six shadow clones that all started attacking the mountain sized raccoon.

Naruto fought on until his chakra was low and he had used three Akimichi food pills. "One more of these could be lethal, I'll have to use the cursed mark now and use the mangekyou."

As the cursed mark activated naruto's eyes changed and at the end of it he had black flames markings covering half of his body with a six pointed star in each eye. Running up the sand leg of the Shukaku transformed preteen the blonde instinctively shot black flames at any grain of sand that moved. As soon as he got up to the top of the Shukaku head he found Gaara just as he used a jutsu to force himself into a comatose state.

Right then he heard a loud voice from just under him. "I'M FREEEEEEE! I'M FINALLY FREEEEE!"

Kurama spoke quickly. "It's time for that last resort kit! You can't handle Shukaku yet!"

Finally giving in Naruto jumped off of Shukakus head head first as he released his hold on both the cursed mark and the mangekyou. "Alright Kurama, do what you must to protect the village and her people."

As the fox took the reigns and forced the full transformation he said one last thing to his jinchuuriki. "Always."

(Shukakus POV 3rd person)

Shukaku was excited! Finally he'd be able to let loose and kill as many humans as he so desired and to top it off all off he'd be killing the mortals that his older brother had sworn to protect. In his eyes as long as his brother couldn't do anything about it he had free reign to do whatever he wanted to these people.

Right as he's about to move he noticed a small object jumping off of his head. "What the fuck?"

Right then his eyes widened as the to thing turned out to be his older brothers jinchuuriki who was engulfed in his chakra and changed into Kurama.

(Normal POV)

Kurama opened his eyes and looked down at his little brother. "Shukaku."

The giant raccoon flinched away from the fox in fear. "B-brother."

Kurama glared down at his brother. "You weren't about to try and kill my people were you?" Asked the older and stronger Biju as he bared his canines.

Shukaku didn't answer, instead he woke his own jinchuuriki and gave control back. The fox snorted. "That's what I thought."

Giving control over to Naruto and reversed the transformation. "Now it's on you kit."

Naruto channeled Kurama's chakra to his legs and started on his way back to Konoha.

(With the Kage)

Hiruzen had fought long and hard until the moment that Orochimaru summoned both the first and second hokages at which point A and Mei both jumped in. "You keep fighting the snake, we'll hold off these two."

Out of the corner of his eye Hiruzen saw a flash of red zooming through the streets of Konoha seemingly to take care of the Invaders and gave one last smirk. "Fine by me. Let's go!"

Hiruzen seemed to be winning and even had been able to cut off both of his old students arms but as he's going in for the kill Orochimaru uses one more trick and spits out a kunai that hits him in the gut.

Using this distraction to slip away Orochimaru takes his most loyal servant Kabuto and runs as fast as he could.

The invasion had been stopped… but at what cost.

XXXAN: Wow! Over 3,000 words! Now don't expect for all of the chapters to reach this type of length but I will try for this and maybe longer, it all depends on where I'm planning to stop, and how much I feel makes sense to put in along with the usual when I have time to write.Next chapter will start off with funerals, interrogations, and new alliance deals. By the way the last one is how I'll get Temari into the Harem, it's the only way that makes end sense to me.And as always MCL homies
