Beforehand: This beforehand will be taken care by me, the author. I've heard many complaints about how my OC is too strong. Well hello? Who wants to read a story where Naruto can punch the enemy in one hit and destroy him? I'm also trying to build relationship here, and a series of weak ass battles just won't do it. So let me answer the fears about a too powerful OC with the following poem.
Roses are red
Violets are blue
Naruto can't beat the enemy with one hit
Boo god damned hoo!
(And what the fuck is a Mary Sue? –Tayuya)
For those of you, who stick around to actually see how the story ends and don't get worked up because my OC can hit back, thanks. I dedicate this chapter to you and I'll use the best of my abilities to write this chapter. (I mean jeez guys, it's not like Naruto freakin died right? Just chill. I promise one hell of and ending for those who keep reading! That's a guarantee! Also, I will try to keep Tayuya more in character. She's back to her senses now)
Chapter 10
Tsunade kicked the head off of another zombie ninja. She felt like she had been stuck right in the middle of Resident Evil without a shotgun. But what she lacked in ammunition she made up for in super strength. If she put everything she had in each hit, she could send these suckers back to the graveyard in one hit. The Jounin and ANBU members were doing their best and so far things were going well. A little too well.
Tsunade made her way to the front of the village. Although she was a legendary ninja, she couldn't keep this up forever. And some of the zombies would pick themselves up after a few minutes on the ground, so if she kept this up it really would be fighting forever. There had to be an easier way.
Once she reached the gates of Konoha, she sensed a tremendous dark energy. At first, she thought that it could be Orochimaru, but something was different about it. Orochimaru's power was usually suppressed. The Snake Lord was good at hiding his face in many masks.
Knocking over a few more ninja, she saw that this was defiantly not Orochimaru. Then perhaps a subordinate of his? Maybe. Only one way to really find out.
"Hey you!" Tsunade yelled over the clashing ninjas and reborn ninja. The man in the dark energy looked towards her and dissolved the energy. The zombies immediately stopped moving, then returned to the man's side.
"Tsunade-sama," Genkai said. "My how long it's been. You probably don't remember me, but ahh how I remember you." Genkai knew that the woman wouldn't remember. Last she had seen, he had had black hair that went straight down. His hair was now wild and white. Turns out that shock can change your hair color. He was looking forward to fighting Tsunade, but he was extremely afraid. He had witnessed the ninja's powers, and they were frighteningly deadly. Plus she had super-strength on her side. But he felt that he had an even chance.
Tsunade had no clue what this man was talking about. She had never seen him in her life. At least she was thought so. His forbidden technique sure wasn't familiar to her, unless he was Orochimaru in disguise.
"Orochimaru, if that's you, then take off the mask." The man just shook his head.
"Poor, poor Tsunade-sensei," Genkai said as he shook his head. Tsunade gasped. "I know three years hasn't completely erased your memory of me has it?"
"Genkai?" Tsunade said. The man nodded with a grin. Tsunade made a fist. "What happened to you? You were such a nice kid! You said you wanted to help the world to become a better place. Destroying villages isn't the way to go!"
"Quiet!" Genkai said. "I still do want to make the world a safe place. But I have…reasons for attacking you." He put his head down. "Tsunade-sensei, Orochimaru has…" He suddenly stopped. He looked up at the woman and said, "Never mind. I gotta do what I gotta do. The reborn did their job in flushing you out, now I'm gonna flush you down." Genkai prepared for battle. This was gonna be a tough one. And he had lost to an inferior ninja of this village. But he hadn't been ready. He was ready for any sunlight in demon form now…
Ramiel swung his lance at the two ninja. They jumped out of the way and retaliated by launching a double kick. Ramiel jumped back and swung his lance again. This time the two split up and dodged. Ramiel then made a hand sign and said, "Kage Bushin No Jutsu!"
Naruto countered with Kage bushin of his own. Ramiel used his more efficiently however. They ran around in circles until Naruto lost track of the real one. They all flew into the air and began launching dark energy blasts at the ninjas. Naruto's clones were bashed, but Tayuya was on top of things. She jumped from a tree and used a sound technique that emitted a loud noise, which sent the enemy clones away. Ramiel stabbed at the girl while she was in mid air, missed, and bent back to dodge her fist. Naruto launched himself into the air and slashed at Ramiel with his sharp nails. With the help of two tails, he was able to slash a few times and land a hit, but he was smacked into the ground. Tayuya jumped back up with a kunai in her hand. Ramiel quickly dodged and kicked her into a tree. He then sped at the girl with his lance pointed at her heart.
Naruto jumped up and grabbed the lance with both hands. Ramiel punched the boy in the face and knocked him into Tayuya.
"Two birds with one stone," Ramiel said as he threw his spear at them. The spear struck them both through the heart. Ramiel looked closely and saw now that he had been tricked by a substitution-jutsu. He turned, but not fast enough to see Naruto's fist smack him. He crashed into a tree. He opened his eyes and saw five kunai flying towards him.
The kunai hit their mark, but Naruto knew that that wouldn't be it. Of course, the boy had a backup plan. It seemed that he had saved one of his shadow clones to pretend to be him. Tayuya had told him to look out when she saw the lance disappear. He summoned the fox's power to create a double-Rasengan, and turned around while pushing them forwards.
Ramiel barely stopped himself in time. He punched the demon ninja instead of spearing him, and then swung the lance to smack the boy into a tree. Tayuya immediately tried to kick him, but he caught her leg and flew up high into the air.
"You are really getting to be a thorn in my side. I'm supposed to be leading an undead army into Konoha, not playing with you two. Instead, I'll let Cerberus do that." Ramiel threw Tayuya towards the ground, quickly made summoning signs.
The ground below Naruto opened up. He jumped back, and watched in horror as a three-headed dog-like beast rose. It barked several times and opened one of its mouths to swallow Tayuya. The girl fell right into the monster's stomach. He didn't bother to chew.
"Tayuya-chan!" Naruto cried as Ramiel flew off. The boy hoped that Cerberus could at least hold the two off for a good hour or two.
Genkai and Tsunade exchanged fierce blows. Genkai would kick, Tsunade would block and return fire, which Genkai would dodge and attempt to parry, but Tsunade blocked again. Genkai was in demon mode one, but so far, Tsunade was fighting evenly. He jumped back, charged his body with dark energy, and sped towards Tsunade. The woman jumped up, but he jumped too. He attempted to grab her, but she grabbed his arm. Quickly, he pulled the rest of his body up and managed to land a kick on the Hokage. Tsunade turned and punched him into a building.
"Genkai, what the hell is wrong with you?" Tsunade asked. Genkai took a breath and rose again. He opened his eyes and revealed his Sharingan. Tsunade gasped. "You would take the eyes out of a Uchiha member and make them your own?" Genkai shook his head.
A friend of mine gave them to me. A Uchiha that seeked to unlock the kaleidoscope Sharingan. After narrowly defeating him with some help, he gave them to me. He told me to take them so that he would live on. He wanted me to use them because I was his closest friend and had defeated him. Now, I will use them to kill you." Genkai made several shadow clones and they immediately ran at Tsunade. Tsunade knew that one of them was real because Genkai's original body was gone. He was somewhere, but the clones were moving too fast. One punched her in the face and continued moving to avoid her. Another cut her across the chest with a kunai. Yet another punched her in the stomach, while a fourth kicked her in the back of the head. They finally stopped moving. The real Genkai stood behind them. The clones had her surrounded. At the snap of Genkai's fingers, they jumped and grabbed hold of Tsunade.
"Boom," Genkai said. Tsunade gasped as the clones began to explode. There was a huge explosion and Genkai smiled. "That's it," he said. "I will now proceed with phase 2…what?" Genkai looked in the air. Tsunade was coming down fast over his head.
"Tsūtenkyaku!" Tsunade cried. (Painful Sky Leg) Genkai was able to avoid the initial hit, but the shockwave knocked him back. He withstood as best he could and rushed back into the fight. Tsunade was recovering, making her the perfect target.
"Dark Death Hand!" Genkai yelled out as his arm was transformed into that of the demon inside of him. He sucked in his breath. This meant he had just crossed into level two. He had to watch it. So far he could control it, but who knew how much longer. And he didn't want to lose control, or sunlight would become his weakness. His hand glowed with dark chakra. He pushed it forward, but suddenly, some ANBU ninja jumped in front of Tsunade. He crashed through the man, the beating heart in his hand. The ninja gasped and fell over. His heart still beat. Genkai looked around. The other ANBU members were becoming active again. And they were going to fight him together. It could prove a problem with Tsunade and Kakashi on their side. Speaking of whom, the copycat ninja stepped out. His sharingan eye was unmasked.
Kakashi was ready for the fight. The other ANBU members knew their jobs. Hold off the undead if they were to reanimate. Kakashi pointed a kunai at Genkai, but suddenly it was knocked away by another kunai. Kakashi looked at the zombies, but they were as lifeless as ever. He looked up and saw someone with huge white wings landing. The man carried a lance which he pointed at Kakashi and ANBU.
"Oh Ramiel," Genkai said. "You're late. Did they give you trouble?"
"Only a bit Genkai-sama. But don't worry. Cerberus is dealing with them. I brought him back from the death dimension." Ramiel looked into Kakashi's eyes and stared intently.
"You didn't go all out on them did you?" Genkai asked.
"No Genkai-sama. It seemed a waste of energy."
"Well, whatever. All you have to do is keep them all out of my fight with the Hokage. And don't hold back. I don't want an instrusion."
"Aye aye, Genkai-sama." Ramiel said as he grabbed Genkai's demonic arm. His body began to transform. He became a demon, red, scaly skin, dark red eyes, horns on his forehead, big, strong hands and arms, and a demonic tail. He released genkai's arm and turned back to Kakashi. He put up the dark barrier around Genkai and Tsunade, giving them enough room to manuver comfortably. Ramiel raised one arm, and reanimated the dead to take care of the ANBU members.
"Let's dance, Kakashi," he said as they launched into battle.
Naruto was trying to figure out the answer to his little dilema. He could probably easily defeat the Cerberus monster, but in the process of shredding the monster, if Tayuya was still alive in their, he may hurt her. The Kyuubi was all for shredding it, but his heart was confused. Well, Cerberus sure wasn't. It ran at Naruto and slammed him into a tree. It's right head released a flaming ball of fire. Naruto dodged and attempted to punched the creature, but it jumped back. It let out a roar that hurt naruto's ears and left him temporarily stunned. The monster rammed him again. Naruto rolled onto the ground and Cerberus chased him. Naruto jumped up and dodged. Cerberus turned around, lowered its heads, and all three of them blew fire at Naruto. Naruto ran quickly on all fours, barely keeping out of the range of the fire. When the stream stopped, Cerberus charged through the flames and smashed Naruto again. His body was taking some heavy damage, and if he didn't solve the 'to kill or not to kill' problem soon, he'd be dead meat. The Kyuubi had different plans. It was trying to force a takeover, making a total of four tails jut from Naruto's backside. Naruto wasn't giving in, because he didn't know what would happen to Tayuya if Kyuubi ate his power.
Ate.
That was it! He could try it. It may work! And he could find Tayuya in the process.
Naruto cloned himself and made a total of four, and ran at the monster. The Cerberus didn't care which was real. It shot fireballs at them all. But the plan was to last as long as possible and make it to the mouth.
One clone tripped and was killed. The others jumped up and held Cerberus' mouths open. The real Naruto jumped past the middle man and slid down the slimy warm throat of the monster. It got darker and darker…then a small light.
"Tayuya-chan!" Naruto exclaimed. She was using her chakra to light the area. She turned to him and gave a half-hearted smile.
"C'mon, Tayuya, we gotta get outta here!" Naruto said. Tayuya shook her head.
"Naruto, you may be a bit better off without me," she said. "I'll survive, but I don't want to hinder you anymore. I've gotta face up to my killers. They're already fighting the war in Konoha, and it's possible that they could completely destroy your home. And I won't let them do that to you. Because, and only because you saved my life-err-extended my life for a couple of days." Naruto turned to Tayuya.
"Tayuya, when we were in the hospital, I didn't mean those things I yelled. I was afraid that you were going to hate me when you found out about Kyuubi. Everyone else does. When they learned about Kyuubi, they screamed and ran. I didn't want you to find out, so I didn't tell you. It didn't matter at first, but I we grew closer, I feared that you would betray me for some reason. Maybe because I'm still distrustful after the Sasuke incident. But also because I housed a demon. I didn't want you to leave. We fought together. We laughed together. We spent time. We bonded. Tayuya, I have never had a close relationship with anyone besides Sasuke. And it was a brotherly bond. But with you, I felt closer. There was a warm feeling once I got to know you. I never wanted you to leave me. I don't want you to leave me. Tayuya-chan, I think I freakin' love you!" Tayuya gasped. The blond ninja looked into her eyes again. Tears were threatening to invade.
"Naruto, you dumb piece of shit. Fuck you. Fucking asshole. I thought that you hated me. I have never had a close bond with anyone at all. When you took me in, it was the first act of kindness anyone had ever shown me. And I liked it. Then we bonded. And I was happier then I had ever been in my life. God I wish we were still together on that bench in the cool evening breeze. Naruto, when you yelled at me in the hospital, I was more hurt then when Temari beat me. More hurt than anytime else. I wanted to die. But I didn't, and now…I don't regret not committing suicide. Because I loved you. And I still do. We fought together. Together. I want you to be with me forever. Naruto-kun, I love you too."
Tayuya finally let her true feelings out. Naruto smiled warmly. She shook her head and muttered, "You asswipe. You got me all emotional. I'll kill you." Naruto embraced her in his arms.
"There's no way I'd rather die," he said. He looked down at her, and her lips slowly covered his. They kissed. For two minutes in the dark, they kissed. The passion was intense. The foul smell of Cerberus' stomach was ignored. They were completely out of it.
Naruto finally broke. They smiled at each other and blushed. Suddenly, the stomach rumbled. Were they moving?
"Damn, we've gotta get outta here," Naruto said. "Can we fight our way out?" Tayuya shook her head.
"I've tried. I've only come up with a rather…unpleasant way out." She gestured at the back of the stomach.
'Boy, you've finally overcome your fear of compassion.' Kyuubi spoke. 'I'll get you out. But you have to trust me. I'll give you knowledge of an unsealing jutsu, and it will release my sixth tail. I'll take over from there. And I'll keep you mate safe too.' Naruto smiled inwardly.
"Kyuubi says he'll help," Naruto announced. Tayuya nodded.
"I would have never cared about a demon inside of you Naruto. Did you see what I am because of this damned seal?" Naruto nodded and performed the unsealing jutsu. He gave up control to the demon, who took over. Naruto was now feral. He smiled at Tayuya and grinned.
'It's feral frenzy baby! Let's rip it all up!' Tayuya smiled and hung onto Naruto's back, and the demon boy jumped up.
Afterword: I'M SO SORRY I DIDN'T PUT THIS UP YESTERDAY! SORRY SORRY SORRY! But I hope this chapter made up. And all you 'Genkai's too strong!' people, has he killed anyone yet? Yeah, kinda makes you feel like one of those parents obsessing over Bully before it came out. But anyways, read and review. Kyuubi has commanded it!
Kyuubi: FERAL FRENZY! Loyal fans, I give you chapter 10!
