(This is my first Naruto fic, but I have been a fan for many years)

Gaara wasn't showing his interest on the outside. But on the inside, he was a rollercoaster of surprise. He couldn't believe that a man had just used such high level techniques and was just laughing as if nothing happened. Naruto had gotten back up and was limping back to Usuigi. Sasuke noticed that the Rasengan had burned right through Naruto's vest and undershirt. The skin looked a bit burned but other than that it seemed alright. Naruto approached Usuigi and asked,

"How do you know that technique? The Fourth Hokage created that move."

"Boy, there is something I want to let you know something. I have had connections with all the Hokages to date. The First and Second were students of mine. The third was also a student. In secret, of course. How do you think he learned so many techniques? And finally, the Fourth. He was my third son. It is a secret that only the Hokages are to learn about and the Ninja's that they send to inform me of the new Hokage." Naruto was surprised but still had one more question.

"How do you know Kakashi-sensei?" Usuigi just smiled.

"How do you think he was able to get that Sharigan eye? It takes more than a simple surgery to do so. It requires intense physical and mental training to prepare the body to house a blood power in a body that's not a part of the bloodline. It took about 7 months for his body to start becoming accustomed to having such ability. The Fourth told Kakashi about me and my abilities. Kakashi had been having a thirst for revenge on a certain individual who killed a special friend of his. Obito, I believe. He came to me begging to transplant one of Obito's sharingan's into him so he can avenge Obito's death. After the transplant, the training began and I tried to take him off the road of revenge. Revenge is for one's own feelings, not for the one being avenged. I taught him that lesson. He finally understood and regretted his decision to use Obito as an excuse to kill and begged me to remove the eye. I refused since the body had already adjusted once. If I did it again, it could have killed him." Naruto stood in place trying to absorb all this information. Usuigi wasn't finished. "Go back to the Hokage and tell him that I wish to know why he really wants to know if I still know my ninjustsu." Naruto wanted to tell the man to go meet Tsunade himself but he knew that he should keep his mouth shut. He just got his ass kicked and his opponent gave him a lecture after kicking it. Suddenly he heard Gaara's voice.

"Sir, I am Gaara, the Kazekage of Sungakure."

"Of course you are, Gaara."

"I demand that you tell me this technique to silence demons inside a mortal."

"Or you'll do what? Kill me? I've known about you for a long time. I know that Shukaku has ruined your life. I would be glad to help you out. However, the ritual takes time to prepare for. I will require a vial of your blood and a small pinch of your sand. Give me these things and I will help you. However, there is a bad part. You will be required to allow Shukaku to take control of your body. Do you understand what I just said, Gaara?"

"Yes"

"Good. By the way, how alert is that sand of yours?" Next thing Gaara knew, the sand blocked an incoming punch from behind. Gaara looked behind to see a clone had attacked.

"Wh…when did he…" Gaara couldn't finish his sentence because next thing he knew, the sand was everywhere trying to block incoming attacks. Gaara realized that the attacks were coming from only two men. Usuigi and his clone. Yet they were moving faster than Lee. Gaara suddenly feels a punch right across the face. Gaara had been so shocked that he didn't even have time to activate the sand armor. That punch was right on the flesh. Gaara goes flying and crashes to the ground. Next thing Gaara feels is a palm right over his tattoo. He opens his eyes and sees the real Usuigi standing over him. Usuigi suddenly yells and Gaara's forehead starts searing in pain.

Sasuke noticed something that was quite amazing. First of all, Usuigi had outmatched Gaara's sand. Second, over Gaara's seal, a second one started to form. Gaara was screaming in pain. The glow in Usuigi's hand finally faded and Usuigi stood up.

"I just sealed that seal of yours Gaara. It should give you a small taste of what life will be like without Shukaku around." Gaara slowly got up.

"Well, why did you attack me?"

"Shukaku has a mind of his own. He would not allow me to apply the seal peacefully. I knew I would need to use force. Anyway Gaara. You should do something I'm sure you haven't done in quite some time. Take a nap.

(I have a question. Do you want Gaara to be freed of his Demon or should he remain the way he is? Please review)
