Chapter 2
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Bridge, Nami no Kuni
(Land of Waves)
Present
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Naruto's feral form is surrounded by angry red chakra, the malignant demon chakra of the Kyubi no Kitsune. The faux hunter nin Haku can only watch in horror as the beast Naruto has become turns it's angry silver moon eyes stare into his soul, the demonic flames reflected into his depths.
In Naruto's crimson tinted vision, he sees lines and dots flow across every surface. He can see the fragile world around him and he's focused on breaking the existence of the one who has caused him pain.
Naruto crouches the weight of dense chakra causing clouds of the dust and cracks to form beneath his now powerful limbs. He growls and tenses. Even as Haku readies handfuls of senbon needles, Naruto leaps forward like an animal to pounce on ice manipulating ninja.
"He's so Bloodthirsty!" thinks Haku throwing his senbons, "He's completely changed from the boy of just minutes ago"
It's useless as a pulse of demon child's chakra deflects the senbons without touching them. Haku tries to attack from above, but Naruto moves out the way in a blur beyond Haku's shinobi sight. The faux hunter nin tries to move to the next mirror, but the ground beneath his sandals crumbles and makes it hard to move.
It's also pointless, because Naruto appears in Haku's path and with a surge of chakra powerful enough to crack the Haku's cage of demonic ice mirror, delivers a claw strike that causes an explosion of crimson from his chest and a punch strong enough to sent Haku flying threw on the remaining mirrors.
Haku's form arcs threw the air and tumbles across the bridge, the mask covering his feminine face cracking. The ice mirror, badly damaged and now cut off from Haku's chakra break and collapse into melting ice fragments.
Haku slowly pulls himself to his feet, the mask cracking and all Haku can think about is "Master Zabuza". Naruto notices charges towards the bishounen ninja as the mask finally shatters. Naruto jumps to finish his prey, only to see the feminine face of his attacker. Naruto's face stops a fraction of second from killing Haku, as blood falls from mist nin's lips
"Y-You're... the kid I met this morning...!" says Naruto, holding back his blow and his angry. He also pushes back the headache that begins to form and the surging blood lust. The Kyubi's chakra begins to fade away.
"I murdered your comrade... your beloved friend... and still spare me?!" asks Haku, the pain in his voice growing and the stain from his chest wound grows. Naruto turns to Sasuke's still form, then turns back and slashes at Haku's face with his claws. Haku's unstable movements do to his injuries save him, but not his headband which shatters into pieces as the claw scratches the fated destruction of the object .
Haku nearly passes out from the blow, but holds on coughing up blood as the quick movement opens the chest wound more.
Haku begins to talk even as strength drains away from his body, trying to convince Naruto to finish him talking about how showing mercy is pointless if there dreams are destroyed. Haku swipes the blood from his mouth, even as it's pointless from the flowing chest wound.
"Say What--?!"
"Master Zabuza has no use for a weak shinobi." says Haku smiling, "You've taken away my reason for living!"
Naruto remembers Haku's world this morning. When people are protecting something truly precious to them, they truly can become as strong as they must be! Naruto's control over a growing headache, prevents him from yelling at Haku. Asking him why Zabuza would be his beloved friend.
Haku collapses to his knees and coughs up more blood. He slowly talks, so faintly it's almost a whisper. "I was Precious... I belonged to my parents... I was born in a snowy, little village in the land of mist... and I was happy...Blood my Blood."
Haku seems to be answers questions not asked by Naruto
"My father killed my mother and tried to kill me. The Land of Misfit is a land of battles and those with kekkei genkai are... abominations in there eyes. In the end the clans... were slaughtered and those that survived... like my mother hide themselves. My father learned... that my mother... came from such a clan and before I even realized... My father had died... by my hand."
Haku gets to his feet again, standing in a pool of his own life fluid.
"Superfluous. Unwanted. Shunned. Accepting that I was alone in world was hardest thing to do."
As Haku continues to talk and die little by little, Naruto thinks about Iruka-sensei. How that man['s acceptance of him saved him and how Haku was accepted by Zabuza. The man may be a devil, a man who slaughtered a hundred students for fun, but he saved Haku.
"I was so happy...!!"
Haku stands like a statue, his body now as cold as a corpse. He stares into Naruto's eyes and asks, "Naruto... Please... Take My Life."
Naruto stares back in shock. He watches as some of lines fade away and he feels the headache fade slightly.He still can't yell out to Haku.
"There's more to life than just fighting. There's more to you!" says Naruto, "Your boss must like you more than just that, right?"
"That day I met you in the forest... I remember thinking that we were two of a kind. Surely you can understand. You'll have to bloody your hands. Forgive me for that."
Naruto stands silently thinking is that the only way? No other outcome?
"Yes" comes Haku's reply to his unspoken question.
As Naruto pulls a kunai and prepares to take the life of another for the second time in his entire life, Haku says, "You... I hope you find your dream."
A second before Naruto can grant Haku's wish for death, a shudder goes threw Haku and he grabs Naruto's wrist stopping the attack. "I'm sorry, Naruto!" he says, "I can't die yet!"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Several meters away, Jounin of Konoha and Naruto's sensei Kakashi Hatake charges forward towards his target. Kakashi has copied a thousand jutsu with his implanted Sharingan, but he has one original jutsu. Zabuza now faces a extremely fast, lightning-charged hand designed to pierce a human body and he is unable to move do the numerous summoned ninja dogs biting his body.
A second before impact, an object gets in the way. A living tool named Haku. Kakashi tears threw Haku's body threw the open wound caused by Naruto's claws, but is stopped from killing Zabuza much to Kakashi and Zabuza''s shock. Haku's last few senbon pierce Kakashi's summoning scroll causing the ninja dogs to vanish and freeing Zabuza.
"You said my future was death... heh heh... but you missed again, Kakashi."
Naruto walks out of the fading mist to find Haku's form impaled on Kakashi's arm in front of Zabuza.
"That was brilliant... Haku"
"The Boy is already dead." says Kakashi as Zabuza's charges, knowing the Demon of Bloody Mist is going to come right threw Haku to get to him.
"I really did find a treasure in that gutter.." yells Zabuza ready to slice threw, "to think he'd grant me this marvelous chance in the end!!"
Crack!
Zabuza watches as his massive Head Cleaving Sword (Kubikiri Houcho) is pierced by Naruto's kunai's tip and it's existence ends. The famous blade glowing with Zabuza's blue chakra vibrates and burning red cracks follow the path of the kunai. The massive piece of forged metal alloy shatters in the Seven Swordsman's hand, several sharp fragments cutting into muscles and nerves in his arm.
Zabuza can only stare at Naruto's strange eyes and strange chakra flowing from him.
Suddenly, they hear noise and turn to see a short ugly man in business suit standing in front of a crowd of heavily armed thugs.
"Gato.. " says Zabuza, as his arm pains, "What are you doing here and why did you bring all of them."
Kakashi glares as Gato sneers and laughs.
"There's been a slight chance of plan, Zabuzaa. Or your plans anyway. This is what I had in mind all along. You're going to die "demon"... here and now.
"What?"
"You must have guessed I never intended to pay you."
As Gato continues to gloat, Naruto feels the angry in him continue to build. Unknown to him, his Nanaya bloodline comes from a long line of demon hunters. They instinctive attack and kill supernatural creatures, and Chokushi no Magan makes even the weakest knife or claw a lethal weapon. In order to detect demonic spiritual energy (yoki) you must be able to absorb it, the same way to must be able to absorb correct wavelengths of light to see it.
Naruto's Chokushi no Magan not only detects, but draws yoki from the Kyubi's seal. The Kyubi's energy filled with blood lust and hatred mixes with the Nanaya thirst for demon blood. The result is a berserker state wanting to destroy all enemies, barely under Naruto's control. It also causes the Magan to operate a higher level than normal. While the newbie would only be able to destroy objects, Naruto is able to cut threw anything or anyone.
He doesn't even hear his own words about Haku, but he does see the tears in the corners of Zabuza's eyes. Kakashi tosses a kunai to Zabuza, who catches it in his mouth since his arms are useless. Zabuza the charges at Gato with killing intent singing in the air. Zabuza ignores the blades and other weapons of Gato thugs and bandits, chasing the evil dwarf running away. He stabs Gato in the heart, says a few last words, then cuts off Gato's head sending him (body and head) flying into the waters below.
Zabuza collapses to the ground, but the thugs yell and sneer. They yell about killing everyone and destroying and plundering the village
Naruto doesn't see his whisker marks thicken, his nails become claws, and his fangs regrow. He charges forward against the yells of teammate Sakura-chan and Kakashi-sensei.
The two Konoha nins watch as bandits are massacred.
Normal ninja speed and strength is superior to the average bandit or armed thug. This is why bandit encounters are C-Rank and assigned to experienced Genin, the lowest level of shinobi. Gato may have been able to get many thugs for far less money than an A-Class Missing Nin, but a average genin is superior than three to five of the armed mooks. A genin enhanced by the Kyubi's chakra can take on an army of goons. A kyubi-enhanced Genin armed with Chokushi no Magan could kill a country of thugs.
The first goon armed with a sword watches as his sword falls apart, then he himself falling apart. A spear-man stabs at Naruto, but he spins out of the way, gets in close, and slices his attacker in half from crotch to head. It continues and soon the bridge is stained crimson. The next ten hired bandits are sliced into a hundred pieces. The following ten pause for the second it takes them to become thirty-six slices of meat on the bridge's concrete. The rest of goons try to escape, but Naruto won't accept escape only total destruction.
Finally, the last bandit is torn into a hundred pieces, his soul screaming into darkness of the netherworld. Naruto stands soaked headband to sandal-ed toe in blood, his own blood pounding in his head. He screams in pain, sorrow, and angry, then collapses unconscious to the ground.

Azami no Mori jima
Same Time
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A small island hidden in the waters between Sea Country and the Wave Country. It has a simple name referring to the red and purple Azami (Thistles) that grows in the moist sandy and clay soils of it's lower hills. The simple plant is edible with roots are anti-inflammatory, diuretic and haemostatic medical uses.
The Island itself is a death trap to the unaware. The waters contained by a wall of sharp rocks contain a species of highly poisonous jellyfish and the ocean's floor contains stingrays and poisonous fish. The island dense forest contains trees that produce toxic sap and poison fungi grow beneath them, and there are numerous poisonous animals such as bee and giant hornets, centipedes, frogs, snakes, and lizards. Even the air is toxic because a poison mist released from the hot springs.
In the center of the forest there is a dark stone fortress, built on a rock island in the center of a lake, surrounded by the poison mists.
Deep within the fortress is a dark torch-illuminated chamber and a figure sits on a black throne. Behind him is a banner behind him. The banner is pure black with a white rhombus and a purple thistle in the center.
The man on the throne stands five foot eleven, a hundred forty three pounds with cold blue eyes and long dark red hair done in spiky lochs. He's dressed in a white kosode (short-sleeved under-kimono), a black kimono and hakama, and a white obi sash. He looks like noble lord, but the air is filled with an aura of power like in the presence of a powerful fighter.
"Seiun-sama!"
A young girl walks into the chamber holding a small glass sphere. She stands five foot with very long straight white hair and amber eyes. She's dressed in a elegant black clothing unlike any clothing worn in the elemental countries. She wears a tight black dress with the bottom billowing behind her like a cape. It fits tightly around her lithe torso by belts around her waist and a buckle collar around her neck. Her wide billowing sleeves stop mid upper arm, secured by straps and her thigh-high boots are secured by three straps on her lower legs. She also wears a black hair band with white lace and a strange black lotus flower in her hair. It's a form of fashion never encountered in the elemental countries.
"The sphere triggered, Seiun-sama."
The girl holds up a small glass sphere with a radius of five centimeters (4 inch diameter). The glass ball is half filled with a water-like liquid. A two centimeter radius black disk floats on the liquid holding a silver needle. The needle continues to point in a single direction, even as the girl moves, like a compass.
"I lost Kushina in Konoha, but I didn't know she had a child." says Lord Seiun, "I have a mission for you, Gigi-chan. Go to Nami no Kuni, find and test the Nanaya child."
Seiun pulls out a small case from the table near his throne and gives it to the girl.
"If he passes then that is his reward."
"Yes, Seiun-sama."

Nami no Kuni
(Land of Waves)
2 weeks after the battle.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kakashi sends a message by carrier hawk to Konoha. He needs to update his report to Sandaime Hokage and Satutobi must be worried about Naruto.
"Kakashi-sensei, do you know if Naruto will be OK." asks Sakura
Sasuke looks up. He's too emo-avenger to ask, but he did worry enough to take notice.
"I'm not sure Sakura." says Kakashi, "Naruto awoke an unknown Doujutsu during the battle. The problem is it's still fully active even now. Most users activate and de-activate eye techniques by controlling the flow of chakra to there eyes. If the doujutsu is left on, it drains the chakra of the user such as my own Sharingan."
"So, he's suffering from chakra exhaustion?"
"In part, which by itself would be severe since Naruto has massive reserves." says Kakashi, "A normal Genin would die from creating half a dozen shadow clones, but according to Iruka's report, Naruto can create a hundred without getting tired."
"What''s the other part?"
"It seems the doujutsu is putting strain on Naruto's brain. The mental fatigue prevents Naruto from regaining his strength faster and if it's wasn't for Naruto considerable healing abilities he would have nerve damage."
"No one has heard of this doujutsu?" asks Sasuke finally.
"In truth, the only famous doujutsu are Uchiha family Sharingan, Hyuuga family Byakugan, and the Rinnegan of the Rokudou Sennin (Six Realms Sage)"
"Rinnegan??"
"The sage was the creator of modern ninjutsu and the transmigration eye was one of the first bloodline limits. There isn't much written about the eye's ability, since the sage disappeared."
Kakashi doesn't tell them the third problem. He may not be a medi-nin, but he can clearly see the problem. Every time Naruto awakes, his eyes forcefully draw the Kyubi 's corrosive chakra from the seal. Not only does it effect his mental health, it's also effecting his body's cellular structure. The constant regeneration is aging his body and shortening his lifespan.
Suddenly, there is a loud female cry of "Gogyou Fuuin! (Five Elements Seal)", followed by Naruto's cry of pain.
Kakashi, Sakura, and Sasuke run into the room to find a strange woman standing next to Naruto's bed. She hold Naruto under her arm and turns to them.
"The name is Gigi. I will be your teacher, today."
A cylinder-shaped object falls to the ground and the room is filled with a purple-white smoke. As the smoke clears, the Konoha ninjas see that Gigi and Naruto are gone and the window is blown out.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gigi despite her small size and frame moves with supernatural strength and speed, even carrying the odd weight of Naruto Uzumaki. She jumps from road to tree to tree to road and back into a tree. She stops on one tree branch, and while holding Naruto under her left arm, bites the thumb of her right. She slams her palm into the side of the tree causing a crimson seal to appear.
"Kuchiyose: Daiga Gejigeji!" (Summoning: Grand Fang Centipede)
There is a massive explosion of white smoke, which clears to reveal a massive creature. It's elongated flattened body is over 12 meters in length covered in dark red-brown armor. It has many sharp legs ending in a sharp claw and it's head has black eyes, long antenna, and sharp mandibles. A massive monster centipede slowly releasing a purple-white mist.
Gigi then leaps away with Naruto leaving the centipede for the others to find.
She travels for several minutes before stopping in a clearing. She pulls out a small vile and pours a little down Naruto's throat. The effect is immediate with Naruto waking up. She then drinks a little of liquid herself and takes a stance as Naruto leaps to his feet.
"Wha.. What? Who are you!? Where am I!? Where's Haku??"
"My name is Gigi. I am here to test you and I brought you here from your room. The boy Haku is dead. You nearly killed him and then he died defending Zabuza. Then you over extended yourself killing Gatou's men."
"I killed..." says Naruto before grabbing his head and crying in pain. What happened on the bridge returns to his memory with cruel clarity. It's followed what he did to the Chunin years ago in that alley. "Oh my god. What did I do? Monster."
"The potion I gave you is similar to the Hyourou Gan (Soldier Provision Pills) formula, except it's also designed to break down mental barriers. It forces a person to remember everything and not repress the traumatic events. I want you to be fully aware of your Doujutsu."
"I have a Doujutsu, like Kakashi 's Sharingan??" says Naruto, the guilt pushes out of the way.
"Your maternal Grandfather Shiki Uzumaki of the Land of Whirlpool was the only other person to possess this ability. He feared what would happen to a child possessing it so he sealed away his daughter's ability using a kinjutsu (forbidden art). Kushina Uzumaki never knew of Chokushi no Magan and when Whirlpool was destroyed she travelled to Konoha and meet your father."
"My father?"
"Minato Namikaze, Konoha's Yellow Flash. You were born with the seal, but it never reached it's full power due to your father's seal placed over it. Located between the Kyubi's seal and Keimon (View Gate), the bloodline seal was unable to mature. So a seal designed to be passed on generation after generation for a hundred and eight generations shattered on the bridge."
"My father's seal?? No way. Yondaime Hokage was my father!?"
"A Hokage protects his people, his village. He couldn't ask another family to give up there child and he had faith in you to protect the village. He also hoped you be a hero for protecting the fools, but like the other Hokages he had to much faith in people."
"Hey! Sandaime isn't a fool!"
"I do not have time for this, Naruto" says Gigi biting her thumb, "If you survive, ask Sarutobi about Orochimaru."
"If I survive...?"
Then Naruto leaps out of the way as there an explosion of smoke and a cry of "Kuchiyose: Tetsujurin Daija " (Summoning: Iron Forest Serpent). Naruto watches in shock as an immense iron gray and dark green snake emerges from the smoke.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sasuke leaps behind a tree after throwing three kunai, a split second before jets of water cut threw the tree. The kunai bounce off the centipede's rubbery black exoskeleton and the monster continues to fire water blasts from holes near it's mandibles. Water does compress, so the monstrous force of monster jets, causes the water to be released like beams of metal.
Sasuke tried to use a fireball technique a couple of minutes ago, but the strange creature was able to open several jets hidden in the leg joints and create a protective water barrier similar to Suiton: Suijinheki (Water Release: Water Encampment Wall)
Kakashi is protecting Sakura using Doryuu Heki (Earth Style Wall), an Earth technique in which the ninja spews a line of mud onto the ground. The mud will then grow into a large mud wall to help defend against incoming attack. It's not one of Kakashi strongest techniques and the water jets are rapidly cutting the mud wall to pieces.
Kakashi holds the kunai tightly in his hand trying to dispel the numbness. Minutes ago, he realized the purple-white smoke released in Naruto's room and the mist released by the centipede is a poison designed to be inhaled or absorbed threw the skin. It is an anesthetic designed to disable there senses and effect by chakra. A few minutes ago, he tried to use Obito's gift, his Sharingan, only for the eye to go blind. Thankfully, it's only temporary, but even as he breathes he can feel his fingers go numb from the hand seals and he can guess Sasuke's throat is numb from using the Endan (Fireball).
Suddenly, Sasuke jumps from the trees and throws a Fuuma (Demon Wind) Shurikan, which splits into two. The giant four-blade weapons streaks towards the centipede who avoids both of them, but doesn't avoid the many attached wires. The wires spin around the twisting centipede until the Fuuma Shurikan embeds themselves into the higher limbs of a tree. The creature has trouble moving like a giant insect larva caught in a spider's web.
Ox, Rabbit, Monkey.
Kakashi channels his lightning affinity chakra into palm pointed downward, holding his wrist for support. A massive charge of lightning-affinity chakra forms. He's doesn't care about the shocks from the ambient tainted water and lightning mixing, his body already sedated by the poison air. Kakashi's hand glows brightly and crackles with the energy as a circle of light forms around him. He raise his palm and then races forwards at high speed the force emitting a sound like a thousand birds chirping
"RAIKIRI!"
Normally, the Sharingan is required for this technique, to predict the targets movements to insure a direct hit, but with the Sharingan unavailable and the target caught in the wires he takes a chance.
Kakashi's lightning surges threw the ambient water and the wires that hold the centipede, shocking it and numbing it's body as it had numbed the shinobi of the leaf. As it thrashes and falls back, Kakashi runs up it's front with the lightning blades and thrusts into the creature's head, where it's armor is weakest.
BOOM!!
There is a violent explosion as the pressurized air and water inside are super heated by the lightning and breached by Kakashi's strike. The entire head explodes and a chain reaction of smaller explosions shatter the rest of the body and splinters the trees is trapped on.

Author Notes
(1) Gigi's appearance is based on (elegant Gothic Lolita) Freya from CLAMPS' Chobits. She would look very strange in a Japanese dominant World of Naruto. Disclaimer: I don't own Chobits
(2) Gigi is short for Gigai Gikongan (artifical body artifical soul). Disclaimer: I don't own any other manga/anime I use for crossover.
(3) I know Orochimaru has the Snake Contract. Gigi's summons aren't normal, think Sasori.
I'm working hard on other projects so this story will only be Update Once or Twice a Month.
