Naruto: Legend of the Ghost Rider Chapter 7: Understanding the sand killer
Naruto noticed Gaara coming in soon after. Hinata had mentioned that her team was scared of him, because they saw him mercilessly kill other ninja.
As much as Naruto tried to keep his distance, Gaara eventually got him one on one.
"I could feel your power. Powers similar to mine. Which is why I must kil you" Gaara said in a very creepy tone. Naruto sighed.
"I am a demon carrier like you Gaara. My demon pointed out his younger brother in you" Naruto said. Gaara was impassive to that, as he tried to kill Naruto. But Kyuubi took control, as Naruto let him.
"Shukaku. WE need to talk" Kyuubi said. Gaara nodded. He used a forced sleep jutsu, to bring out Shukaku.
"Free at last. KYUUBI!!!!!!" He said. He bowed down.
"Stand up my brother. But first...." Kyuubi-Naruto said, as he made some hand signs, to cast a silence jutsu on the room.
"You seem to have made your host ruthless and wanting to kill. Is that your work, or the one who sealed you?" Kyuubi-Naruto said. Shukaku-Gaara growled.
"Not me. I mean it this time. I have been known for a my rage, due to jealously. But us demons are merely protector of humans. I don't see how that is logical, as there are some who hate us" Shukaku-Gaara said. Kyuubi-Naruto chuckled.
"That's because Humans are inferior. Demon containers are the ones we respect the most, for they aren't like the rest of their race. Humans fear and hate what they don't understand. Why do you think they especially fear Our Big brother?" Kyuubi-Naruto said. Shukaku-Gaara nodded.
"Of course. But the assassination attempts on my host has caused him to believe that he is meant to kill, and that killing defines his existence. The seal has caused me to be erratic, except when I'm with one of my siblings. Had you not been here, I would be insane. Is there anyway you can fix the seal, so Gaara can not be so insane?" Shukaku asked. The lights suddenly went out, and a pair of flaming eyes were seen.
"Big Brother!" Both Kyuubi-Naruto and Shukaku-Gaara said. It was Dios both demons returned to their respective hosts, allowing the hosts to be in control.
"Gaara-kun. I hope you've been listening" Dios said. Gaara nodded. Naruto sighed.
"Killing for fun can almost make you guilty of murder on numerous occasions, and I can't allow sinners to be of this world. You have a chance to be normal. You need a friend. If you had one, that would stick by you, no matter what, would you stop killing?" Naruto asked. Gaara looked at his hands.
"My first so-called friend was the first person who tried to kill me. I hated it. I hated him. I hated everyone" Gaara said, with rage going into his voice. Naruto sighed.
"I know Gaara. I know. You aren't alone. Your siblings care for you. I can tell. But do you? I believe in second chances. Maybe, getting out of the village that has tried to kill you, and going to Konoha, and pardon if I sound egotistical, but meeting me, is your second chance. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity" Naruto said. Gaara was still angry. Naruto approached him. He didn't care if he could have been killed. Gaara was reluctant. Naruto was close now. He pulled Gaara into an embrace. This had cracked Gaara's hardened emotional shell.
"A...friend?" He asked. Naruto nodded. Gaara let a tear slip.
"I see. This is good. Naruto. I can feel, he wishes to repent and it has begun. If you have such a power, use it to your advantage, for protecting everyone and everything close to your heart. Humans carry both good and bad traits, and it's unfortunate. Oh Gaara, I am the devil. I'm also the great 9 demons' elder brother. You have nothing to be scared of from me. Let me fix that seal for you" Diso said. Naruto sighed.
"Are you gonna make his sign the soul contract?" Naruto asked. Dios shook his head.
"Unless if he wants to. But I don't recommend it. I only need 1 ghost rider at a time" Dios said, touching Gaara's love kanji. It knocked him out.
"Sweet dreams" Dios said, before chuckling devilishly, and vanishing.
Gaara would wake up later, on a bed. Temari and Kankuro were there, along with Naruto.
"Whoa Was I really out?" Gaara asked, getting up. Naruto nodded.
"Did...?" Gaara ask. Naruto shook his head.
"what you saw, what you said, what was done last night, was real. I'm glad you've changed" Naruto said. This puzzled the 2 sand siblings.
"I had a talk with him last night, and an old friend of mine fixed his seal. Gaara is no longer a killing machine" Naruto said. Gaara nodded, crackng a genuine smile.
"Thanks you Naruto. Temari, Kankuro...forgive my sins of the past" Gaasa said. Temari and Kankuro both smiled.
"Of course. You're our little brother. We knew one day you'd be more normal then before" Temari said. Gaara nodded. He then looked at Naruto.
"Ghost Rider...what is that?" Gaara asked. Naruto sighed. He knew he had to tell. Well, he decided to tell what a Ghost Rider is, not whom it was.
"The Devil's Mercenary. Obviously there is one out there. If you're lucky, you'll meet him" Naruto said, before he started to leave.
"Wait. Sand is going to attack Konoha in a month, during the last part of the exam. It will be an invasion from both sand and sound. The Kazekage spoke with Orochimaru, all about this" Gaara said. Naruto clenched his ahnd.
"It's a military thing. Well I can't say much, except that the Kazekage made a grave mistaken. Orochimaru will backstab him. You have to call off the troops, or at least have then help Konoha The sound is young and rough. The most dangerous. Led by that snake Orochimaru. I don't care who fights him, as long as I get the last piece. He is the reason why I'm so hated" Naruto said. Gaara nodded. Naruto then left at that.
Later, he was talking with Hinata. She seemed relieved that he was okay.
"Gaara was confused on who he was. He's been through a lot" Naruto said. Hinata hugged him tighter.
"I-i-i-i Belive you Naruto-kun" she said. Naruto smiled He then cupped her chin with one hand, before quickly kissing her.
"N-n-n-n-narruto-kun" She said, blushing. He frowned.
"To much?" He asked. She shook her head, and leaned up to kiss him. More deeply then last time.
"I hope father doesn't find out" Hinata said, still red hot blushing. Naruto chuckled.
"He told me about you crushing on me, and I told him about me crushing on you. Yes, I did, and do, have a crush on you. And he said to go for it. He believes in us. Yes Hinata. Not just us together, but us on our own. He truly believes you're stronger then you seem. You just don't give yourself Credit for it. You are more then that. You aren't a normal Hyuuga, even when you have to be. You are you. Powerful smart, and beautiful. No matter what anyone says. Believe in yourself, like I believe in you" Naruto said. Hinata stopped blushing so hard. Naruto had given her the resolve she needed to go up against anything
