Hey guys, another chapter! I warn you now, I got a little.. creative... with how Kyuubi restored it's chakra... don't hate me, I know it doesn't work like that, it just occured to me that Naruto wouldn't be able to fight with out his own chakra or the ninetails, so I had to fix it so it would work... don't hate me!
A powerful roar filled the room, as Naruto stood and spun a circile, leg outstretched. The speed of the attack was surprising, for someone who had just killed a Hokage, and the spinning kick had hit all four of the guards, stunning for mere seconds but not killing.
In the dark recess of Naruto's mind, the fox was no longer caged. The beast now ran rampant about his mind, creating his own chakra, using Naruto's.
That foolish boy, the Kyuubi thought, rushing around and preparing for the rise of his four new enemies. He knew, of course that humans contain within them two kinds of chakra. The kind this human had used, drew upon every time he had need, was the physical chakra, but he forgot that living creatures also have a chakra of spirit, a mental one that can also be tapped into, and needs to be used for most kinds of jutsu. Because this boy was so full of spirit, I am able to draw on his own energy, as he drew on mine for so long. By combining our chakras, I may be able to create the physical needed to complete ninjutsu. Now I rise again, and none shall stand in my way!
The fox bounded through Naruto's mind, drawing on his spritual power and attacking his friend's furiously.
Tenten was the first to rise, Shuriken in hand. She threw them viciously, but knew Naruto would easily dodge them. She reached behind her and pulled a scroll out. In the time Tenten bought the rest of her squad, insects attacked Naruto, who had dodged the shuriken just as Tenten had predicted. A quick glance around told her her comrades had already risen, as she knew they would have by now. Shino was spinning rapidly, releasing bugs in an odd manner. Their hissing filled the air, and some flew towards Naruto, while the others covered the bug tamer's teammates. Lee was not in view, but Tenten could feel his chakra: Lee had never learned many Jutsu, but that didn't stop his chakra from reaching immense levels.He was hiding somewhere, taking the time it took to open the gates, hoping the others could hold Naruto off whilst he reached the necessary power. Tenten hoped he wouldn't try to open the last gate again: it simply wouldn't do to lose a husband now! (Yeah, you read right. I'm sick :-p ) Neji was being his usual showoffy self: He was once a master of Gentle Fist Taijutsu style, and now, he had taken his mastery to an even higher level: He began Rotation, spinning rapidly and emitting large amounts of chakra. While spinning, he began to point his fingers at his target, activating his Byakugan and firing concentrated blasts of his own chakra from a distance to his opponent. Tenten took this as her own cue - with Neji and Shino attacking from a distance, and Lee waiting for the right time to get close-range, Tenten pulled another scroll, and placed them on the ground.
Kyubi was having a hard time with these two opponents. If there were only one of them, it would be no big deal to simply rush one and kill them while they attacked, For Neji it would have been harder, but still managable, if he attacked from underground. Instead, the two warriors attacked from both sides, disabling Naruto's ability to take time and use Jutsu.
Gamebunta, on the other hand, had it easier.The shinobi toad drew both of his swords (he had another made, for the great lightning leaf battle), and rushed the great snake Sasuke had summoned. As it attacked with one sword in front of him, the spider leaped from behind. It rushed him and spat venom, but Gamebunta was able to lop off the beasts head with a flick of his second sword. The first, meanwhile, had been easily deflected against the Great Snakes think armor hide, and It tried to sink it's teeth into Gamebunta's soft body. He jumped to the side, and the snake dripped venom from it's great fangs.It fell to the floor, melting the ground in which it landed, and putting out a small patch of flame.That's it! Gamebunta raised his swords again, and slashed in a circle. The snake, as expected, slid it's great head back, but not as expected, swung it's mighty tail forward. Gamebunta Jumped back as the tail blocked both attacks, and knocked the sword in his off-hand away. Damn, Gamebunta thought, recoiling from the unexpected attack and regaining his balance. I was expecting him to spit more acid at me. After all, it's safer to attack from a distance when you can, then to come forth offensively.He's probably caught onto my strategy then. I suppose I must find a new one! Gamebunta had hoped to use the venom from that attack against the snake. He had wanted to attack with his sword, and hoped that his own venom could melt its' thick armor, like it did the floor. No matter, I didn't stop to think that the venom may have melted my swords anyway! Gamebunta jumped high into the air, and shot a water ball at the beast.
kyuubi was having a hard time of it; he hadn't even yet mastered to move this weak human body of his, and now four excepti0onally skilled shinobi were attacking hiom. three were, anyway. The fox had yet to find the fourth.At this point, Kyuubi expelled some of his own chakra, ecimating some of the quiet one's insects, and it exploded on him! Kyuubi was pushed back hard, falling to the ground.
"I'm dissapointed, Naruto," Neji looked down onto his fallen comrade and shook his head. "I thoguht you would chatch on to the fact that I wasn't attacking you. No., You see, I sent some blasts of chakra your way, of course, to distract you, but meanwhile, I was killing some of Shino's insects as well.as they flew towards you, I blasted them with chakra, and while this killed them, it made them a beautiful, miniature explosive." Shino shook with rage at Neji, as the gifted ninja pulled forth a kunai. "Now, Naruto, it is time for you to die. Who knows? They may even make me Hokage in your stead." Neji plunged the kunai deep into Naruto's skull, and was surprised to find himself coughing in the puff of smoke that had risen.
"Amazing," The voice came from Naruto's body, but it wasn't Naruto. This voice was poweful, deep. It demanded fear, and respect, and, worst of all, it was bestial. A powerful growl sounded with that fearsome voice, and it shook the ninja to the core. "I was powerful before, but now... I have hands! Hands, not paws! With these, I can perform ninutsu! If I was powerful before as just one fox, imagine the power of ten!" Kyuubi made the hand sign, and became ten Narutos. "I had planned on switching back to my original state, when I came out, but this is so much better!" The Kyuubis in Naruto's clothing rushed the three ninja, attacking vigorously, relishing the blood he would soon taste.
"Summoning! Rising Twin Dragons!" The two scrolls became the rising dragons, as they always did, but Tenten had learned. Now, instead of more projectile weapons, more scrolls emerged. A touch of her blood on each of them sent their own barrage of weapons down on Kyuubi and it's clones.
"Damn!" Kyuubi dodged one rain of shuriken, watching three clones turn into smoke as he ran about angrily. He turned to face Neji, who had recovered from his coughing fit, and shoved a lengthened claw into his eye. The jounin screamed as he felt the hot blood on his face as the searing pain ran through his body. the fox drove his claws further into the man, relishing the scream, until finally the claws impaled his brain, and the ninja died. Kyuubi laughed viciously, as a kunai dug itself into his back. He screamed, as he turned into smoke, and still, their were six foxes on the attack. Two of them rushed Shino, dodging projectiles. The bug tamer tried to call forth his insects, but it was no good; Neji had killed too many. Kyuubi brushed off the pests like they were merely ants, and swung his claws across the ninjas throat. Another was destroyed as a sickle and three senbaum laucnhed themselves in the back of his head, and between the shoulders, and the third rushed Tenten as well, only to be turned to vapor in seconds.
There were three left, now, and all of them rushed Tenten. Kyuubi grabbed a shuriken as it flew for his throat, and threw it high into the air. "Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu!" A thopusand now rushed at Tenten, who could not hope to avoid them while in the air. They attatched themselves deep inside ehr body, delving into vital organs and drawing blood. The kunoichi was killed by her own weapons, and now there was only one threat left: the fighter.
Tenten! NO!" The call came as Naruto predicted, and the green-clad ninja emerged in a flash next to his beloved.He picked up her body as the two (one had been killed by one of Tenten's last projectiles) Kyuubi looked on, and look up at them angrily.
"Shadow Clone Jutsu!" now there were twenty Kyuubi powered humanoids, and each of them rushed Lee.
The powerful Jounin shrieked in rage, and attacked, seeming to dissappear into air. Before Kyuubi knew what happened, eleven of his clones had disappeared, and suddenly the real Kyuubi was in the air, spinning at an incredible speed. the ninja drove fists into his soft human back, and shriekd "Hidden Lotus!" He jumped off and decimated three more clones before the fox hit the ground.
Kyuubi's healing powers were set to work instantly. The wounds on his back had healed, and he smiled. "It's time for you to die now." The fox smirked and performed another hand sign: "Transform!" All of his clones did the same thing, and each of them were now dressed in light pink shirts. Their faces were soft and fair, and they had long hair, which now went down to his - her - shoulders. "Lee," a feminine voice called out. Tenten's voice. "Don't kill me, Lee. Please, I don't want to die." She sounded so helpless, so scared. Lee knew she wasn't the real thing, but could only think of rushing to her, holding her, saying it was ok. this was when the claws dug into his back, tearing him in half.
The fox let out a menacing shriek of laughter, and undid the clone jutsu, as well as transformation. "The fool. I cannot believe he was so easy to surprise."
It was then the flash of green appeared before his eyes, and the Lee he had killed turned to vapor. "I could say the same thing to you," Lee's face was tight with veins, his eyes were like they were on fire. Kyuubi thought for a moment the ninja had gone mad, and realized this must be what it looked like for one to have opened the eighth gate. He screamed, and attacked menacingly. "I have you!" the ninja attacked with such a barrage of punches and kicks like the fox had never before seen! The pain was incredible, like every attack liquified one of his vital organs, but somehow, he was able to survive. Kyuubi finally fell to the ground, breathless. He was lucky Lee had already used a large amount of his strength, or he would be dead right now. Lee looked at his opponent, bathed in his own blood. the viens in his head had burst, bu the waas still standing. he was covered in sweat, tears, and blood, but still he crept towards Naruto. He pushed harder, releasing even more chakra. "NOW... YOU... DIIIIIIIIEEE!" Lee screamed again, running towards him, but fell to the ground. Kyuubi noted his breathing had stopped - the eighth gate had killed him.
"I should have known," Kyuubi remarked. "One of his comrades performed the clone jutsu on him, to make things difficult for me." This was how Lee was still alive after Kyuubi saw him being cut in half. Lee could never do ninjutsu, this was true, but that doesn't mean that noone could perform it on him.
Naruto was inside what was now Kyuubi's head, inside the very cage the fox had been in for so long. He was screaming. "No! Let me out! You can't do this, please! Don't kill my friends! I'll kill you! Believe it!"
"Shut up you stupid human," the foxes' voice came from nowhere and everywhere. "I was locked inside you for thirty three years, and you expect me to just let you out now! I should think not. Now, be quiet, and let me do my killing."
The villagers were in a panic. The Hokage's mansion had caught fire, and now two great beasts were doing battle there. They recognized them as the summoning creatures of Lord Hokage and Naruto. They understood what was happening immediately. Countless shinboi of the hidden leaf village attacked Gamebunta, trying to kill it and assist lord Hokage, but the toad hardly felt it. He shot continuous water balls at the snake, and finally managed to begin pushing him back. The toad was gaining ground. Exploding tags erupted around the beasts, now they were both being targeted. Gamebunta had another idea. He jumped again, high into the air, and spat oil onto the battlefield. The flames from the exploding tags caught, and the village burst into flames. The snake caught fire as well, having been doused in a rather large amount of oil, and eventually it caught to Gamebunta as well, who had enough in his system to spit. The enormous beasts died as the village erupted into flame.
The fox continued his rampage. He rushed to Lee, who vanished before Kyuubi could within feet of him. The fox stopped, glanced around. Nothing was in sight. He heard the dying screams of helpless shinobi and kunoichi, felt the heat of the flames on from the village. There was not much he could do to stop Lee, now - he had, afterall, opened the eighth gate - Lee was now the most powerful man alive, but Kyuubi knew it would not last longer than a minute or two now: Lee had already used up a good deal of strength, and the eigth gate had a nasty tendency of killing the opener. He glanced around further, and saw nothing. He didn't realize he was in the air until almost his entire body was liquified. The imposter Naruto was glad he had been building chakra as armor just under the skin, or else the damage would have reached his organs and killed him on spot. He knew he was in trouble, however - Lee showed no signs of letting up, and his attacks were slowly destroying Naruto's armor. He reached into his Kunai pouch, and pulled out one of the blades. He raised it in a nearly hopeless attempt to end the green-clad ninja's life, but it was knocked out of his hand before having left the pouch entirely. Naruto fell to the ground. This was the true Naruto, not Kyuubi. The fox saw fit to allow the boy to endure the pain, rather than himself. He knew he could only find temporary solace, though. He had about a minute before the boy died, he guessed, and hardly a second to recover his mental status. The boyt moved slowly now, inching towards him as though he were already dead. It took a moment for Kyuubi to register that the boy was actually unconsous (spe?), and still moving to attack. The fox took a moment to prepare himself. He took the body over again, Naruto being helpless to stop him, due to the pain, and took still another second to allow the pain to wash over him. Already, his wounds were beginning to heal, but assuming he survived this, it would take months to gain all of his strength. The fox slowly moved towards the man before him, reached out, and grabbed his neck. It took only a flick of the wrist to break the bone, send him flying, and end his life.
moments later, nearing Naruto's home
He heard the village dying and screaming all around him, and he slashed unnecessarily at those whe were already wounded, biting flesh away from the dying. Kyuubi knew he could not stay conscious much longer, and increased his speed. There were two more people he had to kill, two more that had always held Naruto back. Assuming they survived, they would have to be strong, and killing the two of them was the only way to do it. The names rang in Kyuubi's head like a bell that longed to be broken: Sakura and Katsuo.
Another Chappie! Yay! PLS don't be mean to me, I will share my cookies!!! anywho, I told you the price was much to great to bear, and now you see why: The entire village has been destroyed, all of his friends are dead, and soon, Naruto wil have his hands stained with the blood of his wife and son. Will he survive long enough to kill them? Will he make it out of the village? What will happen if, and when, Naruto returns to his body? To find out, you must review!
PS: PLS don't hate me for waiting so long... I had sudden inspiration for other fics. It's a Naruto one, so if you enjoy this one, feel free to read it!
