"We need to put an end to this!" shouted the Raikage. Another meeting between the Kages was in session. The Tsuchikage and Raikage were arguing about what to do. The Mizukage, Kushina, and the Kazekage sat quietly. After a few more minutes, the Mizukage spoke up. "Listen. We all know something must be done about this. But we don't even know who is doing all the killing." The Mizukage said.

"And I suppose doing nothing is better?" shouted the Tsuchikage.

"I never said…"

"My son does." Kushina said.

"What do you mean?" asked the Kazekage.

"Five days ago, this killer attacked my son and his team. From what one of his teammates said, he knew her." Kushina explained. This got confused looks from everyone.

"Her?" asked the Raikage.

"Yes. My son's teammate said it was a girl. His teammate also said, I can infer that my son met this girl before." Kushina said.

"Is there something your hiding from us, Uzukage?" asked the Tsuchikage. Everyone turned to look at Kushina with distrust. "No. But it seems my son is." Kushina said sadly.

"Then we need to find out what he knows." Demeaned the Kazekage.

"Didn't you hear me? My son is…"

"Right here." Came a voice.

Everyone turned to see Naruto walk in. He was flanked by Anko and Tsunade. "I'll tell you what I know." Naruto said.

"To answer all the questions we might have, I'll ask a general question. How do you know this killer?" asked the Mizukage. Naruto lowered his head. After a few seconds, Naruto looked back up. "It was a year ago, I was twelve…"

1 Year ago…

Naruto was walking through a dark hallway. He came upon a large room. In the center stood a girl with green hair, tan skin, and had a white dress on. For the past three months, Naruto had been tracking her. 'Today, I end it here!' he thought. The girl looked up at Naruto and said, "It's about time you showed up." The girl said.

"It's time we end this… Kara!" Naruto said venomously. In one quick blur, Naruto lunged at Kara with a kunai aimed at her throat. Kara jumped out of the way and aimed her hand at Naruto. A giant shockwave shot out and pushed Naruto into the wall behind him. Naruto quickly got up and stared at the girl. Both locked eyes. In one swift motion, both oppents ran through a series of hand signs and called out, "Water style: Water dragon jutsu!"

Two dragons made of water appeared out of nowhere and rushed towards each other. They smashed into each other and the water fell to the floor. Kara jumped up and gathered charka in her feet. Her feet then attached to the wall. She looked down at Naruto. "Your doing much better then I thought." She stated.

"Shut it! I'm putting you away!" Naruto shouted. For the next five minutes, Kara and Naruto go back and forth in a series of punches and kicks. Each one trying to get the upper hand. Both were on opposite sides of the room. Naruto had a rasegan in his left hand. Neju had chakra-infused ice covering her right hand. "Time to end this!" shouted Naruto. Both lunged at each other. In a matter of seconds, their attacks made contact. Shock-waves were sent through the room, shaking the foundation. Both of their attacks were grinding against each other. Suddenly, their was a blinding flash.

After a brief moment, the light faded. Kara was holding her arm and screaming in pain. Naruto got up and quickly pulled out a scroll. He opened it and placed it on the floor. He quickly flipped through some hand signs. "Uzukage Style: Five phantom Dragon sealing!" Naruto shouted out. Suddenly, five phantom dragons appeared and raced towards Kara. Said girl looked up in horror as she was encircled by the five dragons. "What the hell is this?" she shouted.

"Your end." Naruto replied coldly.

"We'll see about that!" Kara shouted. Two bright lights shot out and hit Naruto dead in the chest. He was then sent flying into the wall. Naruto looked at Kara with a smirk. "Was that meant to kill? You should try harder." Naruto said. To his surprise, Kara laughed. Before she was completely sealed away, she left a dark warning. "Believe me when I say this: I shall return! And you will pay." With that, she was gone. Naruto let out a sigh of relief.

"She's finally gone." He said. Naruto picked him-self up and walked out of the room. As he exited the tunnel, Naruto used some earth chakra and sealed the entrance. 'I wonder what mom will make for dinner tonight.' Thought Naruto as he headed home.

Present Time

"And you never told me this why?" Kushina, Tsunade, and Anko asked.

"I thought she was sealed away for good. The sealing jutsu I used was the most powerful one to ever be created. So I saw no need to tell you." Naruto said. Everyone looked at Naruto like he was out of his mind. "Well it didn't hold her in! Now did it?" shouted the Raikage

"No, it didn't. I can do it again, but this time the seal will be three time stronger." Naruto replied. The Miuzkage eyed Naruto with a look of curiosity. "I have one thing to ask you Naruto Uzumaki." She said.

"And that is?" he asked. The Mizukage had a small smile on her face. For some reason, Naruto had a feeling the he would regret asking that.

Uzushio (Five hours later)

"I swear I'll kill her!" Kushina shouted for the hundredth time.

"We know!" Naruto, Anko, and Tsunade shouted back.

"How dare she try and flirt with my son! She's the Mizukage for crying-out-loud!" she screamed louder. Everyone let out a heavy sigh. Ever since they left the meeting of the Kage's, Kushina wouldn't stop complaining about how the Mizukage tried to flirt with Naruto. Everyone was getting annoyed with it. "Mom, calm down. She's long gone now, okay?" Naruto pleaded. Kushina looked her son in the face and smiled. "Alright." She said. Everyone let out a sigh of relief.

Two days later

Naruto, Yugito, and Fu were all sitting a-top a building, watching clouds pass by. Kakashi appeared next to them. "Anything we can help you with?" asked Fu.

"Yes in a matter-of-fact. We need to go and meet Lord Jiraiya." Kakashi said. The trio shared a confused look, but left with Kakashi to go and meet Jiraiya. After a short while, they were at the gates with Jiraiya. "Good. You're here." Said Jiraiya.

"What did you want to talk about?" asked Yugito.

"A while ago, I found information about a certain organization." Stated Jiraiya. Before anyone asked more, Kushina, Anko, and Tsunade came walking up. "Were here. What is it you wanted to tell us Jiraiya?" asked Anko.

"As I just told them, I looked up on this organization. It's called Akatsuki. The reason I'm telling you this is because this Akatsuki group is because there after the tailed beast." Said Jiraiya. Everyone turned to look at Yugito and Fu. "So there after us?" asked Fu.

"Yes." Said Jiraiya.

"So what do we do?" asked Tsunade.

"Simple. Because Fu and Yugito are jinchuuriki and Naruto has some of the Nine-tails chakra, they'll be targets. So, I'll take them with me to train for three years." Jiraiya said.
