Sorry it took so long, guys. I was in a bit of a dry spell.

Last time

In Naruto's mind

"Now where are you Satsui?"

"I'm behind you"

"Lets finished what we started in one attack, ready?"

"Hellyeah" The two charged their Hadoukens. Satsui finished his slightly before Naruto, and fired it while jumping and at Naruto. Naruto seeing this did the same thing. An explosion followed by dust. There stood one figure, and before he could utter a word past out.

Now on with the story

Naruto wakes up in his bed in relieve that he won. "Man if he had charged his a little longer I would have been toast, but he said something to me in the dust. What was it?" Before he could remember what it was that Satsui said, he blacked out from some kind of pain in the back of his head.

With Sakura

"I've been searching for Ryu-sensei, but all I got are rumors. May this was a bad idea. I wish Naru-kun was here. Maybe he could find Ryu-sensei or at least Ken-san." As she finished her thoughts, she saw a man in a white gi and wearing a white headband. Sakura noticed this and ran at the man shouting, "Ryu-sensei!!"

The man turned around to see a girl who he was familiar with. "Sakura-chan, is that you? What are you doing here?"

"I should ask you the same question. Why didn't you return from the tournament?"

Flashback

Ryu looked across the ring and saw Sagat looking at him with this cold, menacing glare. On the signal to begin was given, it was clear that Sagat had the upper hand. He never gave Ryu a chance to mount an offense except for a few lucky punches. This act of dodging and blocking continued until Sagat caught Ryu with an elbow to his chin. Sagat then stated in a annoyed tone, "You're weak boy! Why wouldn't you target my right eye...my weak spot?! Your attacks are completely pitiful!" Sagat stared down on Ryu, as Ryu slow was losing conscience. "Not even enough strength to talk, eh...?"

'Master, will I die here, not even able to fight back...? Dammit... training all this time, all for nothing?' Sagat continued to approach. Sagat then grabbed Ryu by his face and slow picked him up. When Sagat lifted Ryu as far up as he could, Sagat cocked his fist back and was ready to swing. As this was happening, Ryu's eyes flashed open, but they were blank like if his was knocked out. Ryu swatted Sagat's arm away. As he landed, he prepared for a shoryuken. Ryu's shoryuken not only knocked Sagat out, but it cut a diagonal cut in his chest.

Flashback end

"During the fight with Sagat, the Satsui no Hadou took over me and I nearly killed Sagat. So, I vowed that I could never face the two of you until I could completely subdue the Satsui." When Ryu finished he looked off into the distance as if in a trance. "Why isn't Naruto with you?" He asked as he came back to earth.

"He couldn't. Remember what you made him promise."

When Ryu remember the promise, he got a deadpanned look on his face "Oh, yeah. Sorry, I forgot." They continued down the road until they encountered another familiar face.

"Yo, Ryu, Sakura, where you been? I've been searching everywhere for you." Ken asked as he stopped in front of them.

"Well, I hav..." Ryu was interrupted by police sirens. The cars stopped and cops came out with weapon drawn.

"So, you're Ryu. You all are coming with me," a woman stated stepping out of one of the cruiser.

Back with Naruto

Naruto woke up in a sewer, which he was common considering the fact that the evil part of him was in the sewer part of his mind. Only thing was that he knew he was not in his mind. Maybe it was the fact the Satsui Naruto was nowhere to be found. "Hmm… This is weird. Maybe I should just turn around and ..."

"Leave." said someone from the shadows of the sewer. "Maybe it was a waste of time to call you here. Oh well, I can't believe that Ryu would take on such a weak child as a student."

"Weak! Show your face and I'll show you how weak I am." Naruto started to drop into his stance. When he saw a woman in a loose red evening gown with large gold buttons, and a large golden scarf around her shoulders and arms; Naruto was at a lose for words for the beauty in front of him.

"Hmm... I see you like what you see, but I don't like weak children." The woman then started to create copies of her.

"What the ... Bunshins. Who are you, lady?" 'Which one is the real one?' Naruto dropped into the Hadouken stance. He started to focus his ki into his palms. 'Now where are you? ... Found ya.' "Hadouken" As the blast closed in on the woman, she grabbed her scarf and deflected back at Naruto. "Oh, shit." Naruto crossed his arms to block the blast. The Hadouken hits Naruto and he goes skidding across the water.

When he finally stopped, he noticed that the woman was floating in front of him. "You're stronger than I thought. Maybe there is promise for you after all." The woman started to fade away.

"Wait, who are you?"

The woman turned to look at Naruto, "Hmm... my name is Rose." With this, she fades away.

Naruto wakes up

Naruto shots up and looks around, "Maybe I've gone insane. First, the Satsui no Hadou, and now this Rose person, man, I hope all this just blows o... v... er." Naruto finished as he glanced at the clock. It read 5:45 P.M. "5:45, shit I've got 15 minutes before I have to meet Hinata, Hanabi, and Akane. Oh, shit if I'm late. They'll kill me." Naruto jumped out of his bed and rushed to the shower. When he finished, he noticed that he had 10 minutes to get dressed and get to the girls. As he finished getting dressed, he heard a knock on his bedroom door. He opened the door to be greeted with two Juken palm thrusts, stopped inches from his chest, and the point of a katana near his throat.

"Hello, Naru-kunnnn." Hinata stressing the kun, "Where have you been?"

"Hai, Naru-kun, we've been waiting for you." Akane said moving the katana closer.

"Hai, hai. Naru-kun, what took you so long too got up?" Hanabi moved her palm closer

"You would think I am insane. Ji goku, dearou en gozen. (Hell I think I am) Come on, let's get going before my okaasan founds out your here."

"Why, she seems ni..." Akane was interrupted by Naruto grabbing her hand in his right, and Hinata and Hanabi with his left. Naruto activated his Shuurai, and zanzou (afterimage) to the gate of the estate.

"Man that was close. If she saw you in my bedroom, I would never hear the end of it." Naruto turned to open the gate, but was stopped by Akane's katana. "What? You know as well as I do. If kaasan saw you three, I would never get her to shut up."

"That may be so," Akane moved her katana back to her side. "But you also know that she worries about you a lot more than she should."

"Hai, Naru-kun. Maybe you should tell her that you're leaving." Hanabi finished what Akane started. Naruto saw the reason behind their statement. Naruto zanzou back to the house to tell his kaasan he was leaving. After he told her, he zanzou back to the girls. "See, was that so hard?"

"It is when you kaasan is an overacted, overprotected shinobi that kick you ass," Naruto grinned before continuing. "But that's Kaasan for you. Are we ready to go now?" After he received three nods, they walked out the gate to the center of the village.

"So Naru-kun, where are we going?" Hinata asked looking at Naruto.

"Ah, we're going to the best place in the village. It's called..." Naruto's sentence was interrupted by a shinobi

"Naruto-sama, Hokage-sama requests your presents at once," the shinobi vanished

Naruto stood there dumbfounded by this fact until he heard sighs coming from behind him. He turned to see the girls looking down at the ground. "Go ahead Naru-kun. If the Hokage-sama asked for you it must be important. Beside, we could always try some other time," this came from Hinata, who knew that something had to be up since the Hokage doesn't ask for someone's presents without a good reason.

"Yeah Naru-kun, go ahead. We could try again tomorrow," Akane was the one that said this. Hanabi, who had been unusually quiet since the beginning of the walk, appeared to be particularly unease by this news, almost like an omen of ill fate.

"Naru-kun, be careful. I have a bad feeling" Hanabi said still looking at the ground.

Naruto walked up to her and wrapped his arms around her. He then whispered in her ear, "Don't worry, I'll be with the old man. I'll be fine." Naruto then kissed Hanabi on her forehead. Naruto stepped back and activated his Shuurai. He then zanzoued to the Hokage's office. "What do you want now, oji-san!" Naruto said with an extreme amount of anger.

"Hello to you too, Naruto-kun. I have something I want to show you." The Hokage grabbed a remote from off his desk and turned on a TV to his left. "This was taken two days ago. I want you to tell me if you recognize anything." The Hokage pushed the play button on the remote. First, only screams were heard, screams of terror and extreme fear. Then the word "GOU HADOUKEN" can be heard. A giant ball of black energy seen along with bodies of presumed dead shinobi. Then a man wearing a black gi with the kanji 'ten' on his back.

The man then started to talk, "So weak, are there no challengers? How do you people continue to challenge me, when you are so weak" The man then turned and stared at the camera. Naruto finally had a clear view of the man's face. The man had red hair, that in a way deified gravity, prayer beads around his neck, and a face that held no compassion or guilt for what he had just done. The man then turned to leave the screen, but not before saying, "If you want to stop me. Come to the forest with the fence encircling it. You will find me there." The screen then went to static and finally turned off by the Hokage.

Naruto sat there, to shocked to say anything. When he finally came out of his stupor; he asked, "Has anyone else seen this and if someone has; did they go to where he is?" The Hokage then seemed unwilling to release the information. Naruto asked the questions again, unknowingly put a great deal of the Satsui no Hadou, ""Has anyone else seen this and if someone has; did they go to where he is?"

The Hokage, by now unease by the fact that Naruto was releasing so much energy behind his words, finally uttered, "Yes Anko-san and Kurenai-san, I unwillingly show them because one of their friends, Uzuki Yugao, was injured in the attack."

"When did they leave?" Naruto asked. He was becoming more worried since the man was a apparent master of the original version of the Ansatsuken, the style that killed Ryu and Ken's sensei.

The Hokage replied "They left about 5 minutes before you arrived." When the Hokage finished his sentence, he saw Naruto activate his Shuurai and disappear.

The forest, after Anko and Kurenai saw the video.

The two arrived expecting some kind of surprise attack, but what they saw was the man casually leaning against a portion of the fence. The man merely lifted his head up to acknowledge. He showed no intent to attack either Anko or Kurenai, but they didn't fill the same about the situation as he did. They both started to perform hand seals. Kurenai was the first to finish her seals and disappeared into thin air. Anko finish hers seconds after Kurenai did; she yelled "SENAI JASHUU." Snakes flew out of the sleeves of Anko's coat and wrapped around the man. After the snakes had wrapped around him, a tree then started to grow, entrapping him as it grew. The man simply sighed and released a massive amount of power, so much that the Hokage or any kage would be jealous. The man finally moved to attack. He rushed forward to attack Anko; only to have another tree form around him. "Now see want happens with you attack a Konoha shinobi, and one of our close friends," Kurenai said as she came of the tree and pressed kunai to his throat

The man started to laugh. The laugh continued until he said "Do you really think that you can kill me with that pitifully excuse for a blade." The man then released more energy. After the illusion was broken, he grabbed Kurenai and throw her into Anko. He cupped his hands together and an orb of pure energy; yelling "GOU HADOUKEN" he thrust his hands forward. The orb grew in size, till it was about as tall as the man was, and the man was above average height. The blast hit Anko and Kurenai, knocking them unconscious but not killing them.

When Naruto finally arrives.

Naruto arrived few minutes after the man used the Gou Hadouken. Naruto looked around and saw Anko and Kurenai laying on the ground, unconscious. Naruto rushed to their sides. He kneeled down and said, "Anko-dono, Kurenai-dono; don't worry! I'll get the both of you to a hospi..." Naruto felt some kind of energy coming from behind him. He spun around and saw the man leaning against a tree. "Who the hell are you?" Naruto asked. The man started to laugh, for reasons that were unknown to Naruto.

"You're the person here who was asked me that question, pupil of Ryu." Naruto eyes went wide, because he knew who this man was.

"Akuma," Naruto whispered before rushing this Akuma. Naruto jumped into the air and perpared for a Tatsumaki Senpuukyaku. As Naruto started to spin, Akuma grapped Naruto leg and flinged him to the ground. When Naruto hit the ground, a crater was formed. Naruto slowly stood up and fell to one knee, holding his back.

"Don't be so foolish, young one," Akuma said, confusing Naruto. "You are wondering why I don't kill anyone, aren't you. I only kill people who can match my skills."

"STUP UP!" Naruto yelled and stood up into the Hadouken stance. As the ki started to form in Naruto's hand, he noticed that Akuma was doing the same thing. They both thrust their arms forward, and Naruto yelled, "HADOUKEN." while Akuma yelled "GOU HADOUKEN." Akuma's Hadouken won, and Naruto was knocked back, landing a little bit away from Anko and Kurenai. Just before Naruto blacked out, he saw Akuma leave as if disapponented by the fact that he beat Naruto so easily. When he woke up, he was being cared for by a medic-nin. Naruto said with a voice that spoke of great pain, "No, take care of Anko-dono and Kurenai-dono, first."

"We're fine, kid. Worry about yourself for once." said Anko standing with the surport of Kurenai who was a little better off. Naruto smiled and opened his mouth as if to say something, but blacked out again.
