Chapter 2: Altered State
Ketsuraku and the Amekage were now a days travel away from Konoha and decided to rest in a border town along the way. The Amekage was sleeping comfortably on a bed, while Ketsuraku decided he would go to a bar near their hotel. Ketsuraku entered the bar in very casual way, he sat at a table where two man were already sitting. The two man were intrigued by Ketsuraku's actions, he in the otherhand paid no attention to them. Ketsuraku raised his hand calling one of the many waitresses to come get his order. It took awhile but finally a waitress got to him and began to take his order, she seemed rather flustered. Though literally blind Ketsuraku could see a persons emotions and a very slight outline of their body.
"Why are you shaking? Why are you sweating? Are you scared of me?" Asked a rather annoyed Ketsuraku of the waitress. The waitress at hearing him talk dropped her small notepad in which she put her orders down. She quickly bent down to pick up the notepad but she was shaking so much she stumbled forward and landed face first at Ketsuraku's feet. She quickly pushed herself away from his feet landing near another table flat on her back. Ketsuraku by now was either confused or very, very annoyed with her.
"Ok, what is wrong with you am I that horrible looking that you are scared beyond belief." Said Ketsuraku as he began to stand up. She looked up at him and put her hand over her mouth and closed her eyes.
"Just because I'm blind does not mean I can not see what your doing woman. Now tell me what the hell is your problem."
"I'm sorry sir its just that you sat down where the two most powerful man in the town are sitting. We here at the establishment do not want any problems. If you could please sit on another table." Said the almost sobbing waitress. Ketsuraku knew exactly what she was talking about, he knew who the two man were. He was now looking down at her and began to give her an almost sinister smile. Then he quickly turned to face the two man sitting next to him and gave them the exact same smile. The two man seeing this also smiled and began to get up from their chairs. Ketsuraku took a step back and extended his hands out from his body and began to emit a light blue chakra aura from his hands.
The chakra that was forming around Ketsuraku's hands began to extend forming what appeared to be blades with no handle. The blades were light blue and began to spin violently under his hands. The spinning caused a whistling sound, that made everyone in the bar to cover their ears. Ketsuraku was giving of the same sinister smile from before and looked at the waitress.
"You woman if you want to live, get the hell out of here now." Said Ketsuraku to the waitress who was beyond scared now. She looked at him and quickly began to crawl away from him, he in the otherhand just simply smiled.
Ketsuraku's Mind:
"I feel your anger growing let it out, let it all out. These are the people who betrayed you eight years ago, let it out. Kill them show them the true you that you are not one to be messed with. Now my son let it out, let my power flow through you lets show them true power."
"Yes father I will show them our true power, the power of the kitsune. Those who betrayed me will die, I will kill them show them no mercy. This anger I feel at this very moment will fuel our revenge."
"Yes, yes now strike them down. Let yourself go, let yourself go."
"I'am your vessel, I will do whatever it is you ask of me."
"NOW MY SON SHOW THEM TRUE POWER KILL THEM ALL. KILL THEM ALL."
Ketsuraku gave a simple nod and the Kyubi disappeared with a giant sinister smile.
Back to the bar:
People were running out of the bar and some could not move they were scared staring at Ketsuraku in awe. Immense amounts of red demonic chakra began to pour out of Ketsuraku and also his eyes began to glow under the cloth that covered them. The glow coming from his eyes was a very bright red, it was a blinding red. The chakra blades that Ketsuraku had created were still under his hands and his arms were still extended. Ketsuraku began to pull his left hand away from the spinning chakra blade and to the surprise of everyone in the bar the blade stood afloat. His hand finally reached the cloth covering his eyes and removed it, revealing to everyone there the blinding red glow. There was no scar going across his eyes anymore thanks to the Kyubi. He closed his eyes and reopened them revealing blood red eyes, that had no pupils. Everyone who was still there and that was in awe, now became even more terrified as if a demon as infront of them.
"What is he?"
"Its going to kill us."
"Have you ever seen something like that, look at those eyes they are blood red."
"Its a demon, a demon that is going to kill us."
"He isn't human, no human could be so terrifying."
The words the people in the bar were saying seemed to resonate deep within Ketsuraku causing his chakra to spike even more then before. In a swift motion he closed his eyes again and almost immediately after closing them, he reopened them. This action gave off an immense flash of bright red light, that left everyone frozen and blind.(as for the move think of Tien from DBZ, Solar Flare) Everyone was grabbing their face and rubbing their eyes trying to come to but it was to no avail no one could see. And their eyes began to resonate enormous amounts of pain. Ketsuraku on the otherhand was smirking and put his hand over the spinning chakra blade. He then proceded to launch both of the spinning blades but they did not hit anyone they just went past the two man standing infront of him.
The two man were the strongest in the town so it was no surprise they were the first who began to regain their sight. They began to pull out their weapons and looked at Ketsuraku with rage. Ketsuraku just smirked at and then snapped his fingers, they were at odds to why he snapped his fingers.
"Where are the things that were spinning around under his hands." Screamed one of the man, which caused everyone who had not regained their sight to began to panic. And then without warning the man who had screamed began to bleed from his mouth and started to fall to the ground. When his body hit the ground it was cut in two, and there to the surprise of the other man one of the chakra blades was under one of Ketsuraku's hands. The man was now in a panic he had never seen such an attack, that had speeds that he had never seen before. Ketsuraku then promptly snapped his fingers again and when the man saw this he began to look around. The man had no time to react, before he could act the chakra blade cut him across the neck causing his head to sever from his body. The man's body fell to the ground as it was lifeless and the head landed beside it. There were large puddles of blood now forming besides the two dead bodies.
The other people in the bar were now coming too and thats when they noticed the dead bodies and Ketsuraku standing before them. The people began to scream and panic even further and began to call him names. This angered Ketsuraku even further causing him to snap his fingers and he also began to move his hands in all directions. The people had no time to react, the chakra blades began to cut through them with unmeasurable speeds. This kept going for about a minute until every single last person in the bar was dead. The floor of the bar was blood soaked and Ketsuraku was just standing there enjoying his victory. He then began to put his cloth over his eyes again and then he collapsed to the ground.
"Are you happy Sasuke I just killed you teme! Are you happy Sakura I just killed you too. I said are you happy with me just having killed you. Answer me are you happy. Damn it answer me." Ketsuraku was saying this to the two dead bodies before him, he was beside himself. He began to laugh uncontrollably.
Flashback two years earlier:
Ketsuraku had fallen to his knees and was bracing himself to be for the worst.
"PEIN WHY DID YOU HAVE TO THAT HE WAS PART OF OUR SQUAD. THE MISSION WAS COMPLETE, WHY DID YOU KILL HIM FOR JUST QUESTIONING YOU. ANSWER ME DAMN IT."
"Because in the ninja world a mission and an order are absolute." Said Pein to the rather shaken Ketsuraku.
"But he was one of us from Amegakure," retorted back Ketsuraku with great anxiety.
"Are you going to question me too blind man."
Ketsuraku was now at odds with himself, so he did what he thought was best to do. He launched himself at Pein with great force only to be sent flying against a nearby tree. The force Pein had used with his kick was so great Ketsuraku was out cold before he ever hit the tree.
"Simpleton you are no match for me, the only reason I don't kill you right now is because the old man likes you." Pein said this as he walked away from the limp body of Ketsuraku.
Ketsuraku's mind:
"I must have been put in the weakest of the weakest. I thought you were getting stronger but to me it seems your just as weak as before. If it weren't for me saving you all those times in the past we both would be dead by now."
"Shut up, shut up, don't tell me I'm weak don't you see he is clearly stronger then me. I'm not match for him if I try to fight him ever again he would surely kill me."
"Whatever happen to the tough kid I used to know who would take no shit from anyone. What about your revenge, didn't you say you would kill those who betrayed you. From what I'm currently seeing they will kill you before you ever get a chance to kill them."
"You know nothing you damned fox. I will get my revenge, I will make every single last one of them pay for my pain."
"No you will not, like I said before you are too weak, you remind me of that little Hyuga girl whos father treated her badly. You are weaker then her. But to keep us alive I will help you, I will give you more power make you stronger."
"I don't need your power, I may be blind but I'am strong I don't need you. I will not become Sasuke."
"But don't you see you are already like him, you are weak and you are seeking revenge. But If you let me help you, you will be nothing like him I promise you."
"Don't you ever say him and I are the same. Never compare us, I'm nothing like him. I'm the one who will be Hokage."
"Yeah keep dreaming, you lost that dream you brought him back, the day he betrayed you. Hell you lost that dream the day the villagers first set eyes on you."
"Enough!" Ketsuraku said this as he began to break down. He was now on his knees with tears coming profusely from his eyes.
"Kyubi make me stronger, help me succeed. Make people recognize me, make people see me for who I truly am. My dreams may be gone but I will make new ones, I promise it."
"Very well I will help you, you will need tear some of the seal off. Not much just enough for me to give you more chakra. And also after this process I will be able to take over you more often. Can you live with that and do you accept.
"Yes I do." And with that Ketsuraku went to the seal and tore some it off. When he did that there huge surge of pain to Ketsuraku and was kicked from the Kyubi prison in his mind.
Ketsuraku's quickly became covered in red chakra and started to shake very violently. This lasted for what seemed to be hours until finally it stopped and Ketsuraku came to. As Ketsuraku got up he felt sharp pains coming from his eyes. He removed the cloth around them and began to feel around them. And that when he opened them only to be seen by someone who was passing by.
"Oh Kami his eyes are blood red, its a demon oh Kami."
Konoha Present Day:
Nari was walking out of the Konoha Ninja Academy. The first thing he did was to look for his mom and he wasn't finding her. "I wonder where she is at, she said she would be waiting for me here not matter what came up." Nari kept looking for his mom he was running around all over the place trying to find her. And suddenly out of nowhere he ran into two chunins and fell backwards on his back.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean any harm I just wasn't looking and ran into you. I'll be on my way now, til next time again I'm sorry." Said a shocked Nari. As Nari began to walk away he was suddenly grabbed from his shoulder. Nari quickly froze up for the hold on his shoulder was painful.
"Hey kid aren't you the son of the demon Uzumaki Naruto." The chunin said this in a very cold manner. Nari was still frozen and began to shed tears, this was not the first time this had happened to him.
"Please sir let me go," said a stuttering Nari.
"You did not answer my question. I'll say it again are you the son of the demon." As the chunin said this he threw Nari to the ground. Nari hit the ground very hard, he went in head first causing him to black out. The two chunins were smirking at each other.
"You did it hehe, lets get out of here before were spotted by anyone." Said the chunin who just stood and watched the whole scene.
Meanwhile in the front of the academy a pink haired woman was running around franticly. "Nari where are you, I'm sorry I was a little late but the hospital got so busy. Nari where are you." She kept looking around the whole front of the academy and thats when she spotted a man with a scar across his nose.
"Iruka-senei have you seen Nari, I can't seem to find him anywhere. I got here abit late."
"He should be up at the front Sakura, there is nowhere else he should have gone too." Said Iruka who was feeling uneasy about the situation. "Dear Kami no not this again, last time we couldn't find him. We found him in a heap, he had been beaten badly."
They both started to look together for what seemed to be ages. Until finally Sakura spotted him, she quickly ran over to him and picked him up. He had blood coming from his head and was still out cold.
"Oh Kami no, no please no," cried Sakura.
"Calm down Sakura he will be ok lets take him to the hospital quickly." Said a now sadden Iruka.
"Right Iruka-sensei," said Sakura as she began to run to the hospital with her son in hand. "Naruto how I wish you were still here with me. To help protect Nari he doesn't deserve the treatment he gets. Its as if the village see him as you, he is going through what you went through. I try to be strong for him but I don't know how much longer I can hold out. Why did you have to die Naruto, why did you die and leave me. I'm just kidding myself to feel better after the things I said you wouldn't have ever forgiven me. But I hope you know where ever you are I wish you were here with me and Nari."
Nari was coming to and looked up at his mother and began to cry. "Why were you late mommy, why do they hate me, why did you let this happen to me." Said Nari as he cried, Sakura's heart was crushed as she heard the words come out of his mouth.
Meanwhile somewhere else in Konoha four people stood together in a very secluded room. The four figures were none other then Uchiha Sasuke, Danzo, Homura and Koharu.
"We are not getting any younger and this plan to make Danzo Hokage is taking to long. We must act now it has been eight years since we put the plan into action."
"Homura is your old age getting to you. Never forget this for the greater good of Konoha." Said a smirking Danzo who was looking straight at Sasuke.
"Has Orochimaru agreed with our plan to take out the Godaime on the day all the villages meet?" Asked a rather worried Koharu.
"Yes he has agreed, he and Kabuto and some elite sound ninja will be here by nights fall."
"You have done well Sasuke," said Danzo with almost a smile on his face.
"This leads me to another matter. Sasuke have you found a suitable mate yet? We need to start rebuilding the the Uchiha clan, we have waited long enough." Said a rather impatient Koharu.
"Hn."
"In that case we will choose for you. Haruno Sakura, Yamanaka Ino or Hyuga Hinata. I'm sure we could get any of them to do this with the right persuation." Homura was looking at Sasuke for answer but he got none.
"Sasuke you must choose," screamed Danzo.
"Haruno Sakura," screamed Sasuke at them.
"What of the demon's son," said a worried Koharu.
"We must kill him in order to ensure the save survival of he Uchiha clan." Danzo said quitely as he looked at the rest of them for agreement. The other three simply nodded their heads.
"Before we leave I must ask one question. Is it true the Yondaime had another son other Naruto."
The three older shinobi simply nodded to Sasuke and walked out of the room they were in. Leaving Sasuke in utter shock and anger. "Why can't you die Naruto. A son. A brother. Just die demon."
Back at the border town:
Ketsuraku was outside of the town punding away at the ground. His fists were now covered in blood, he had been hitting the ground for hours.
"Do you like what you did. It felt good didn't it and to tell you the truth it was all you. You are becoming more and more like me everyday."
"It was not me, you took over me and you killed those people not me."
"No you are wrong I just simply fed you the chakra. You are the killer here not me so now live with it."
"It was you after our agreement you can takeover my body with ease. Those people did not need to die, you turning me into a killer."
"What are you talking about you are already are a killer. A very effecient one I might add. So don't berate yourself sacrifices must be made to reach our ultimate goal of revenge."
"I..."
"You see you know I'm right, you are a killer a damn good one. Now live with what you are and move on to our next goal getting revenge."
"Power, revenge and death. What am I becoming. I'm a killer thats what I am."
"See that wasn't hard to admit now was it. Now stop hitting the ground and let me heal your hands, we can't get revenge with no hands."
"Very well..."
Somewhere in Amegakure:
"Pein its time to move out and set our plan in motion," said a blue haired woman.
"You are right it is time to set Akatsuki's goals into fruition. I Pein will make sure we never fail." Pein said this as he looked over Amegakure.
"What of Ketsuraku?"
"Don't worry he will be dead soon. And after that Amegakure will become our main base of operations." Smirked Pein to the blue haired woman.
"Good I never did like him. And also to report the Sanbi has been captured."
"You never fail me."
She simply nodded to Pein and disappeared in a puff of smoke. Pein then jumped of the ledge where he was sitting and began to walk around Amegakure. "I will kill you Ketsuraku, you will not interfere with our grand plans. So don't go weak on me like before I want a good fight. You will die at my hands. Like man before you who have tried to challenge me all have died. Perhaps if things were different you would be in Akatsuki with me."
Somewhere in the forests of Konoha:
"Tomorrow Kabuto we will kill Tsunade-hime kukuku..."
