I do not own Naruto Shippuden or any of the characters.

Way Out

Naruto walked forward into the light and Rai grinned wickedly.

"I see," Rai sighed. "So you got that stupid bitch to believe you after all. Let me guess, you're here to torture me until I remove the seal, right? Well, sorry, I don't have that ability. The Seal has to be broken, not removed."

"How?" Naruto asked.

"You have to figure that out on your own," Rai grinned. "Try turning gay."

Naruto sighed drawing a kunai and walking over to a tray of assorted liquids in jars. He pulled it over to Rai and Rai's eyes widened.

"Bet you didn't know I asked Kurama how to torture," Naruto grinned. "One of the smarter choices I made. Of corse, that said, you removed him from me with that seal, so now, I'll just have to use my imagination. The sooner you tell me how the hell to get out, the sooner I leave."

He ended his statement by driving the kunai down into Rai's leg, making Rai scream in pain. Naruto wrenched the knife out and poured a few drops of pain enhancer into it. Ten seconds later, acid followed. Rai instantly began screaming in agony so loud his voice began to crack and fade instantly. Naruto washed the wound out and looked at the clock. He had been in this world for five hours already. He turned back to Rai and poured a thin line of acid up both thighs then put a drop just below each eye. Rai's screaming reached deafening levels. Naruto sat back and watched as Rai thrashed against his restraints, to no avail. Finally, he stopped screaming and Naruto stepped forward, picking up a jar and emptying it onto Rai's left foot. Again Rai's screams became deafening. This time, when it subsided, Rai began to laugh.

"You're a fool Naruto," Rai laughed. "Why would I tell you?"

"Because if you don't, your story ends here," Naruto stated. "Regardless of whether or not I survive, you won't."

Rai stared at him for a moment before spitting blood at him from where he had bitten his cheek. Naruto sighed, wiping the blood from his face, and picked up another, putting two drops between Rai's legs. Rai screamed so loudly that his voice failed and Naruto grabbed him by the sides of the head, squeezing painfully and making Rai look at him.

"Tell me how to break the seal!" Naruto shouted through clenched teeth.

"Alright," Rai mouthed.

Naruto poured water onto Rai's newest wound, washing the acid out and Rai sighed.

"You have...to...overpower...the seal," Rai panted. "You have...have to...feel something...stronger than...the seal."

"My love for Hinata," Naruto stated. "My hatred of you."

"Not just feel it," Rai growled. "You have to...have someone here...feel it to. The seal will delete you, unless it thinks you belong here. Then, it will cancel and you'll go home."

Naruto stared at him for a moment then splashed a jar on Rai and left the room, the medic hurrying into it as Kurenai walked along beside him.

"Did you find out?" Kurenai asked.

"Yeah," Naruto nodded. "It's impossible."

"Why?" Kurenai asked.

"I have to make Hinata fall in love with me," Naruto stated.

"You did before," Kurenai stated.

"No," Naruto smirked shaking his head. "She fell in love with me from the moment she met me. She had to make me fall in love with her."

Kurenai stated at him then nodded and sighed.

"Well, what can you do?" Kurenai asked.

"I can't," Naruto stated. "I can go find a comfortable spot to wait. I can-"

"Kurenai Sensei!" Kiba shouted running in, Naruto restraining himself from attacking.

"What is it?" Kurenai asked.

"Hinata's been kidnapped!" Kiba stated.

"Who and which way?" Naruto demanded.

"I don't know who, some guy wearing a white robe," Kiba stated. "And he went south."

Naruto was gone instantly, having teleported to a seal above him and was printing south.

You will not be taking her, Naruto growled. With or without he knowing me, I'm going to fucking kill anyone who hurts her!
