Thanks a million.

"Um... you ready now?" asked Kisame, not wanting to upset the blond in anyway since it was obvious that he was no match for him.

"Almost." said Naruto, turning back to them. " Just one more thing before we go." He said and bit his thumb. "Kitsune Kakuyo and Yanbo: Kuchiyose no justu!" He said summoning two six tailed foxes.

The others eyes widened at this as they weren't aware he could actually summon demon foxes.

"All hail Kyuubi-sama. How can we serve you?" asked Kakuyo as it transformed into its humanoid form.

"Thanks for coming you two." said Naruto . " I have a special delivery for Konoha that only you two can make." he said with an evil fang filled smirk.

The two fox grinned knowing that they would enjoy whatever there master had in mind.

"Of course master ." said Yanbo. "What is the message?"

An evil smirked appeared on Naruto's face that was mirrored by the two Kitsunes a few minutes later, when he told them what he wanted. They immediately agreed and teleported off with the message.

Naruto watched them go with a smile before turning back to the others. "Now I'm ready to go." He said and the others nodded before setting off.

in Konoha...

The next morning...

The sun had just began to rise and was reflecting off the Hokage mountain when all those who were currently up and about saw it. Screams irrupted and chaos ran rampant as people began to panic thinking that Naruto had returned for revenge. The ninjas all went on high alert as they tried to find out what was going on and to calm the people down. Sasuke and Sakura who had hurried to find out what was wrong, paled when they saw what Naruto had left them.

"Lord Hokage the village parameters are still secure and there is no sign of who did this." Said a ninja.

Sasuke nodded. "Fine. Go get some men to remove the body and the Graffitti." He ordered.

"Hai Lord Hokage." Said the ninja, before running off.

"What about the villagers?" Asked an ANBU.

"Tell them everything is fine and it was just a scare tactic, that's all. Also tell them that they should go about their days as usual." Sasuke replied.

"Yes sir." Said the ANBU, before leaving.

Then Sasuke turned to Sakura. "I want you to examine the body personally. If there is anything unusual, come and tell me." He said and she nodded.

"Of course master ." said Yanbo. "What is the message?"

An evil smirk appeared on Narutos face. "I want you to take this piece of trash ad deliver it to Konoha for me." He said pointing to the dead Konoha-nin. "I also want you to hang it from a rope from Sasukes' newly carved head and paint the words in red 'mercy will come to those who deserve it and to the traitors; death' across all the stone faces . Also paint my spiral and the number nine over the fourth Hokages face. You are to do it without being seen and use demon Genjutsu to hide yourself so that you are undetected by the Uchihas' Sharingan or by the Byakugan. Use the Genjutsu to hide it until the next morning when most people are already up and walking around. Make the paint acidic, so that it will harm anyone who tries to remove it. I want it to be what they see first thing in the morning and the last thing at night. The last thing I want you to do before returning to me is to henge into cute little innocent children and insight the people enough so that they will be arrogant enough to stay in the village. All you need to do to achieve that is use the Uchiha name a lot." He said, evilly.

Evil grins appeared on the two Kitsunes' faces as well. "We will do our best my lord." They promised.

Naruto nodded and they hurried off.

Sasuke turned away, ready to make his way to his office, but was stopped by the screams coming from the Hokage stone monuments. He turned to all the ninjas that were trying to get the body and paint off screaming in pain as they were being burned by the acidic substances in the paint. The acid was so potent that a few minutes later most fell over dead. Sasuke sighed and then teleported to his office, leaving his ninjas to handle the chaos.

"The demon has obviously broken free." Whispered on villager fearfully. "What are we gonna do now?"

"I thought that the Uzumaki brat was the demon." Said another sounding confused.

"Who cares." Said another. "We need to leave here before he returns."

"We don't have to leave." Said an innocent looking dark-haired girl. "Hokage-sama is the Uchiha, he will protect us ."

"Yeah." Said another kid. "The Uchiha is the greatest ninja in the world."

As villager nodded at that. "Yeah," He said in agreement. "No demon is gonna run us outta our village."

There were answering cheers by the surrounding villagers who heard and the two kids snuck away from them stealthily and ran off until they were in an abandoned ally. They immediately transformed back into their humanoid forms and snickered.

"Humans are so pathetic." Said one, as they teleported away.

with Sasuke...

Sasuke sat in his office and looked out the window at his face engraved in stone. Naruto actually killing a Konoha-nin had brought things to a whole new level for him and the reality of what he had done was starting to set in.

"Mercy will come to those who deserve it and to the others; death," He read to himself. "Your face should have been up there Naruto, not mine, but I stole from you. I betrayed you for power again. So now that you've killed one of our men, what will you do now, Naruto?" He said to himself.

He sighed and continued to stare out at the words on the stone until the door of his office opened and an ANBU walked in.

"Lord Hokage, some of the council members are here to see you." Said the ANBU.

Sasuke frowned. "Let them in." He ordered.

The ANBU immediately went to obey and the council members marched in.

"What are you going to do about that demon?" Asked Sakuras' mother angrily. "It has defiled the Hokage faces and killed our ninjas."

Sasuke didnt answer he just glared at her and stared her down, effectively putting her in her place without words.

"The demon must be found and killed and the babies retrieved." Danzou said angrily. "It is a danger to us all."

"Who is the ninja that was killed and where was he sent on a mission?" asked Hiashi. "Both of my daughters are currently on a mission in cloud. I need to know if they are safe."

Sasukes eyes immediately bled into the Sharingan due to his annoyance.

"We have just taken the body down and is trying to identify it. You will just have to wait and see the results like everyone else. I am going to send hunter-nin squads to find and capture him, but until I know who was killed I wont know which direction to send them in. As I said before; you will have to wait." He told them coldly.

"Listen Uchiha, this is way past capturing him. We have decided that he must be killed on sight." Danzou said arrogantly.

The Sharingan began to spin as he looked at Danzou. "You will do as I say or spend the rest of your life in a cell. Since you're so eager to help, make sure that the village is properly protected instead of wasting my time. After all it, was your men that were on guard duty last night, or have you forgotten that? Perhaps, like you they are too incompetent to actually be of any real use." Sasuke hissed.

Danzou growled at the insult before turning and storming out followed by the others.

"I thought that I would be able to manipulate him when he took over, but things have not gone as planned." Danzou thought to himself. "The demon is dangerous and if this fool can't see that, then I'll simply have to deal with it myself." He thought as he went to his private base.

"Gather four teams." He yelled to his captain as he walked into the room. "Find out who the dead ninja is and where he was last and pick up from their and try and track down the demon. Naruto Uzumaki must be killed as soon as possible, do not fail!" He ordered.

"Yes sir." Said the captain, before doing as ordered.

"Soon this village will be mine." Danzou thought evilly.

Two hours later four ROOT ANBU teams left the village heading directly for Kumogakure.

with Hiashi...

When he found out that the dead ninja was from the team sent to Kumo, he paled and called in the head of the main branch.

"You are to gather fifteen men and find and go to Kumo to find my daughters. If they are dead then you must asssasinate Naruto Uzumaki at once!" He ordered.

"Yes, my lord." Said the man before leaving the room to carry out the order.

Although nothing showed on his face, he hated the other man with a passion for the way he had treated them and Hinata. He had often seen Hinata crying off to herself as a child due to his cruelty. He had a feeling that Hinata wasn't dead and he was planning to switch teams and join her if she was still alive. She alone deserved his loyalty in the clan, not the rest of the main branch.

with Naruto...

They traveled at a fast pace, effectively distancing themselves from the carnage they had created. Around 3am that morning, they decided to make camp in a cave that they had stopped in on their way to the village before. They ate whatever snacks they had left and settled in for the night since they were all tired. Itachi had decided to take first watch in order to give Naruto time to rest since he was looking a bit pale.

Naruto laid in their tent and began to shiver. Itachi, who was keeping a discreet eye on his mate immediately noticed and hurried over to him.

"What's wrong, Naruto?" he asked worriedly.

"I don't know." Said Naruto as he continued to shiver. "Kyu?" he asked worriedly.

In his cage the fox shifted nervously. "Um... well kit, you remember when I said that you had finally become a man and all that, well you're about to evolve a bit that's all. As you know , the amount of tails you have signifies the amount of power you possess. I was the most powerful Bijuu before but you're about to surpass me." It said proudly.

"Huh?" Asked Naruto. "What do you mean, Kyu?"

The fox sighed. "You're about to grow a tail or two." he said in reply. "It will be painful but I will try to dull the pain for you. Tell your mate to put up a powerful genjutsu around the area and a sound and chakra barrier as well since you will be there for a little while."

"Alright I will." said Naruto. "Thanks Kyu." He replied.

"No problem kit." Kyu said.

Then Naruto turned to Itachi. "Tachi-koi please put up a powerful Genjutsu around the cave as well as a sound and chakra barrier to hide us from humans. I'm about to grow a tail or something so we'll have to stay here for a little while." He said still shivering although his body was burning up.

"Alright." Itachi said before doing as requested.

He also woke the others and informed them of the situation and they all hovered near Naruto worriedly. Naruto rolled over on his stomach and began to whimper. Ten minutes later he was all out screaming in pain. Itachi and the others watched him suffer helplessly until the Uchiha couldn't take it anymore. He used his Sharingan to enter into the blonds' mind and was surprised by what he saw.

Narutos innerworld was wavering as if it were a failing Genjutsu although he knew it wasn't. The pain and suffering the blond was going through was currently affecting it.

"Itachi Uchiha." Said a voice behind him surprising him.

He turned to see the nine tailed fox sitting there looking at him uncaged since the usual scenery was nowhere to be found. Not that the cage themselves were actually effective anymore since the merge. Due to his concern for his mate however, Itachi felt no fear in front of the Kyuubi.

"What's happening to him?" he asked worriedly. "Why is his mind warping this way?" He asked as he looked around at the swirling landscape.

Kyuubi sighed sadly. "It's cause of the pain he is currently experiencing. Before, he was only a half demon but due to his unusual circumstances and the fact that he is growing more tails, something that has never happened to a Hanyou before, he is becoming a full demon and growing in power. Unfortunately the process is causing him to relieve all his memories, even the sealed ones and we both know that he has more bad memories than good. When he awakens, he will not only be more powerful, he may act differently due to him reliving all his memories. It could make him seem more cold or heartless depending on his ability to deal with it or even cause severe trauma or depression. I'm not sure as it all depends on him. Know this Itachi, even before his recent growth in power Naruto was more powerful that Pain and Madara, he just hid it well. Now he will be even more powerful and I don't know how they will react to the change in him. You will need to decide where you stand as they might decide to try and betray him and kill him. The other thing is that, now that Naruto is more powerful than me, I may die if he wants me to as he now holds my life in his hands. He will still be alive of course as it would mean that he merrily got rid of my consciousness and soul. Although I trust him, due to him reliving his memories he may come to hate me and no longer want me in his life. If that happens I want you to tell him that I am glad to have met him and that no father could be prouder, even if he is my adopted son. If I die then I expect you to take care of him for me. Now its time for me to concentrate on helping him. Its no longer safe here for you so do not return. Until the process is complete, if you return here you will die." It said.

Itachi suddenly found himself back in the real world where the others were looking at him curiously. He quickly relayed all the details to the others but left out Kyuubi's personal warning to him. He thought about what the Kitsune had said about the unsealing of Narutos' memories and began to feel a bit worried. Although he didn't regret what he had done so long ago, it could possible piss off the blond.

Narutos' whimpering and screaming stopped but he continued to shiver. He would occasionally yell in pain as well as mutter out a few phrases in between.

Tbc.

Sorry for the short chappy.
