Hello people, I finally decided to write another chapter to this fic, Yeah yeah I know. What the fuck why did it take so long? Well I'm not gonna answer that. Instead I'm just going to write some hopefully awesome stuff, which will more than likely go all over the place.

I don't plan my shit out, it just comes to me…that's probably why it takes so long.

Disclaimers: I do not own Naruto, what I don't understand is why Naruto doesn't have any other wind attack other than rasenshuriken. He can make millions of tiny MICROSCOPIC blades of wind but he can't learn how to blow people away with it? Screw that.

Anyways, time to get the show on the road.


Meeting Familiar beings

Last time, Kyuubi AKA Naruto transported himself to the home of the Toads.


Smoke covered the sky as nothing but rubble could be seen as far as the eye could see. Trees were broken, stone walls were decimated, and bodies mutilated laid on the ground, blood seeping deep into the earth as the carnage the beast made as it was passing was inhumane, almost godlike.

Underneath a pile a rubble, movement could be heard as a survivor still remained. The survivor had a hard time just moving his body but he willed it to listen. Moving the debris that was crushing him, he inhaled a mouthful of air that he had desperately wanted but immediately almost felt like throwing up.

The stench…

The smell of human flesh, some old some fresh. Charred bodies also laid everywhere, the smell of human flesh reeked across the place. The Survivor again willed himself to continue, shakily standing up on his bloody legs while looking at his hands

He couldn't believe he survived, out of everyone that screamed to god that they begged to survive, only he as far as he could see survived the onslaught. He, the person that wanted to die the most.

God just loved playing a sick joke on him.

His blood red hair stood out as all the blood on it made no difference. His one eye that shined blue even in the darkness could be seen, his other eye, which was taken from him was still covered by bandages that somehow remained intact. He was cursed, that's what the survivor told itself.

God would not let him die, was there some sort of mission he had to do? Did he have to kill someone? What did he have to do before he was finally allowed his eternal rest.

All he could do was accept it, just like all the other misfortune in his life. He didn't care who died at the moment, actually he didn't care at all, they were better off dead. The only thing that he was concerned about what was he going to do now?

With his extra appendages, most would accuse him of being a demon's spawn or offspring, he scoffed at the idea, at least then, he would have the power to defend himself.

Walking towards a random place in hopes of civilization, he walked, passing all the bodies, passing the puddles of blood he stepped on, he didn't care, humans could do whatever they wanted.

He walked for what seemed like days until his feet finally gave out. The clothing he managed to find to cover himself with had been tattered and ripped due to the journey. He fell to the ground, hoping that he could finally close his eyes.

But again, Kami just loved to fuck with him.

A girl happened to notice him, a girl that had no business even being there but was, like some twist of fate that they met. The girl rushed towards the exhausted traveler and tried to help but didn't know how.

"Sir, can you hear me? How can I help you?" asked the girl, desperately looking for any injuries on the travelers body.

"Fo…Food and Rest…" The traveler mumbled, despite the weakness of his voice, the girl heard him.

"A-Alright Sir, just stay awake." The girl said, while trying to help the man up. As she reached behind him to help him stand up, she heard the clothes rip. She turned to see the damage as she noticed something. She gasped and dropped the traveler by accident causing the hood the man was wearing to drop. That was when the girl noticed all of the travelers extra appendages.

A fox tail waving in the breeze and Fox ears that twitched every once in a while…

That was the beginning of a story of when the demon boy met his angel.


(Mount Myoboku?)

Light shined through the trees that seemed to flourish all around. The breeze that swept through the landscape seemed to whisper soothing sounds that would make one feel at peace. The area was simply overflowing with Nature and one could literally feel the tingle in the air due to the energies that the surrounding exuded.

On the ground, a red headed boy laid unconscious. His whisker marks were more pronounced than previously before. His fox ears twitching at every noise that was made and his tails laid on the ground, twitching slightly.

After a while, the boy began to shift in his sleep until he started to wake up from his slumber. Groggily he opened his eyes and started to straighten his dizzy spell. As his eyes stopped spinning, he shakily stood up and inspected his surroundings. Big weird trees, check. Abundance of Nature Chakra, check. A mess of various sizes of toads charging at him, check. Yup he was where he needed to be. Mount Myoboku. Quickly he shifted his ears and tails and hid them as to not bring about any questions.

Just then, he felt a big impact on the ground that shook his body. Turning his body, he saw three humongous toads, one of them had a pipe and a scar in his mouth which he recognized as the same toad that he vaguely remember fighting. The second one held some sort of frying pan…shield thing. The third one had to giant swords behind his back making the shape of an X.

On the ground, there were two elderly looking toads that looked like infants if it wasn't for their wrinkles. They might have seemed harmless but he could sense the nature energy building up inside them. It was interesting to see how the toads managed to obtain the power that the sage of six paths once held.

But not to the degree the sage could.

Naruto quickly shook his head to prevent himself from reminiscing, he had other things to worry about. Like having to deal with a mass of heavily armed toads.

…Joy…

Internally sighing at his predicament, he raised his hand in declaration of peace or whatever the hell it meant. That did not stop the biggest toad with a giant knife from sweeping down in an effort to slice or in the size of the blades case, smash the fox-made human.

Naruto was impassive at looking at the scene before him. He just raised an eyebrow at the attack and lifted his hand holding a simple kunai with the end pointing directly at the blade. With a mighty cling. The impact could be felt in waves. The dirt that was around the man blew away in all direction and the ground shook below the man. The toads eyes widen as they all saw and felt the impact of the giant blade.

The elder toads Ma and Pa looked at the strange newcomer in wonder. The boy couldn't have been older than 13 and showed no struggle against the giant blade, he wasn't even panting. On closer inspection, they noticed something off about the boy. Besides his heterochromic eyes, for an instant, they could feel nature energy flowing through his body just enough to be able to parry the blade. They were amazed at the split concentration and the control and consumption of the nature chakra that the boy was exuding. What was even more impressive was that he showed no noticeable changes to his body besides his eyes giving off a light glow and his hair standing up slightly.

Quickly snapping out of their trance, they decided to confront the boy. There were too many questions that needed to be answered.

"Who are you boy? How did you get to this mountain!" Pa yelled to the boy.

Naruto just tilted his head a bit, the action made him seem a bit innocent while inside he was debating with himself.

There were multiple ways he could go through with his next action.

He could be honest and tell them the truth. But then that would mean that they would start getting anxious about seeing the 'supposive' Kyuubi. But that would also bring up too many questions that he would not want to answer, and then there's the whole 'I just used Nature chakra like it was nothing' thing that he just did. He also couldn't tell them exactly how he got there. How would they react if he told them that he basically almost crushed their summoner and then 'borrowed the scroll and then traced the chakra to the location…well it was too much explaining to .

The second way he could go was say that he was the perverted sennin's student, but honestly, he would rather go with the 1st choice than the latter. The current Toad sage was pathetic in his eyes, he needed to go to brothels and peek on women in bath houses just to get his rocks on. That was no way a sage should be acting. Though he was being a bit of a hypocrite. The sage of six paths was not a saint either, rather the sage was pretty lax when it came to that, well behind doors that is. The sage was very childish at times but was responsible. But plainly moving on, it would bring up too much trouble because he doesn't know the current 'master' at the time.

Then there was the third choice, the most reasonable one in his mind. He could pretend to be a different sage than the one they know. Rather than focusing on their sage arts with involved toad based techniques he could claim to be a different sage…a fox sage maybe? But that would still bring up the issue of how he learned it. But then again, they don't really have a grasp of all Nature chakra could do so it may work.

"My name is Naruto…and I'm a sage I guess. I just followed the nature chakra and it led me here." He said a bit sheepish hoping that it would work.

The toads stared at the red head for a while. The sage arts were very hard and incredibly dangerous technique to learn and to master. To see a young boy such as the person standing before them was astounding.

"How did you get control of Nature energy?" Ma toad cried out.

"Hmm…how should I explain this…Well I was born and had a high compatibility with nature for some reason, bloodline maybe. I was abandoned in the forest and forged for myself. I gained awareness through the forest by living there. That's probably why I can control it so well, it became part of my normal life, a necessity to live most likely." Naruto said, it was an idea that had no support but couldn't be easily disapproved either, it had its drawbacks but its potential also, it would be enough to pass the hoax.

"But that shouldn't be possible. I'm sure there have been people in the past with similar predicaments but none of them gained control on Nature chakra. Even if they did, it'd be a one in a million chance." Pa said.

"Well you're looking at that millionth person because I can use it, I can control it, and you yourself witnessed it, so there's no denying that I can use it." Naruto said.

They couldn't really deny that accusation. Even if it was a snowball's chance in hell, there was still that chance. Nature had a way of making the impossible things happen. Just looking around, Humans were a prime example. They grew, they adapted and they developed as a society. They were capable of great evil just as much as they were capable of great kindness. Humans, such strange creatures, no claws, no fur, just skin and whatever they could get their hands on, and yet they grew to be one of the top species.

Gathering their thoughts back up, the elder toads decided to change their questions, they weren't going to get to the bottom of that question because they were too many variables.

"Then tell us, why are you here, and how did you get here?" The toad with a pipe in its mouth said.

"Don't really know, I felt the mass of nature chakra here and there were two ways I could go. The other way felt…cold. That wasn't giving me any reason to go towards the other way so I came here. As to how I got here…I walked." Naruto said.

A complete lie. Everything he was doing and saying was so that he could get what he wanted. Of course, living for thousands of years, one becomes familiar with the things around him, such as how many creatures can use nature chakra and to what point, also the locations of some of the most famous places and any hidden treasures that Naruto might have hidden here and there.

"So you let Nature guide you?" Ma toad said. It sounded like a preposterous idea, but again, nature could not be understood at times.

"That's right. Now that I'm here, may I talk to head honcho. I'm sure it will shed light on why I was brought here." Naruto said

"We have no idea what you might be looking for but maybe the great elder toad sage might be able to help." Pa toad said.

"Thank you very much." Naruto said politely.

The mountain was a very peculiar place from what Naruto had observed. It seemed that the nature chakra had affected both the animals and the environment. From afar he could see many stone statues of what appeared to be toads. Poor fools, trying to wield a power beyond their understaning. From what he sensed, there was a culmination of Nature chakra, very diluted, given liquid form. He assumed that that was the first step towards their training.

The two older toads started leading him more far into the mountain as it seemed that the location was somewhat secluded. Eventually arriving at a big building, the two small toads lead him towards an altar where the elder toad sage sat.

The elder toad sage gazed at Naruto, he seemed deep in thought before talking.

"Ah…A natural Nature chakra user… it's been a long time…" The elder toad sage said, startling the other toads, since when was the old geezer not senile?

"Leave at once, this is a private matter…" The sage toad said. The toads looked at each other before nodding and departing, leaving the young boy and the sage toad alone.

The toad couldn't help but let a smile form on his face. It had been a long time since he had, and the whole senile episode wasn't helping either. But in reality, he didn't expect to meet this man-err boy again.

"It's been far too long Kurama…or are you going by Naruto now?" The sage toad said.

"Holycrap…is that you gama-chan? Kami your old. Can't believe your still alive and well…still crazy." Naruto exclaimed, feeling a bit relieved, Who would have thought he would see someone familiar..

"I feel the same way, it's been over a hundred years, and I was still just a young toad back then. When I had heard you were sealed, I thought I might never see you again old friend." The Toad responded, although a bit offended at the old and senile jokes, they tend to get old.

"You too, I'm going by Naruto now, Kurama was the name the Rikudo Sennin gave me, but I'm using my real name once more, but enough about me, I'm surprised you made it so far, what happened to the little toad that used to be so crazy that I thought he was insane and would always follow me whenever I took my human form. You're a Senjutsu user and apparently can give accurate prophecies. –Sigh- Time waits for no one I suppose." Naruto said.

"Indeed. You have missed much of the world around you. Let me guess, you figured you'd have more better of an understanding of humans if you got sealed inside one didn't you." The toad sighed.

"Right in one. My time inside humans has been very…informative. Well not so much informative but rather reinforced what I already knew. Human's are sad creatures my old friend. The good are too few and far in between to do anything about it." The fox turned human said.

The Great toad sage cracked his eyes open and responded. "Human's fear the unknown, we both know that. They fear what they don't understand, what they can't see, what they can't control. They destroy what they can't obtain and they betray those they are most faithful too. Though they are capable of great good, they even more capable of greater evil. There are those that are untouched by the hands of hatred but... they usually bear the greatest burden, and it leads to their own undoing."

Naruto stayed quiet for a while. He knew what he was talking about. He had met many people during his lifetime. He had met men that would fight an army by himself, women that would lead their homes to prosperity, husbands that would protect their homes from demons and wives that would challenge god like beings to protect her children.

He met all of them, yet many fell to betrayal, sadness, and to their own weaknesses. He had traveled with many of them, comforted them on the way, rescued their lives number of times, but in the end it was all for nothing. Their towns would exile them, their kingdoms would hang them, their religions would execute them, until the place became too corrupt, he needed to act.

He would destroy.

He destroyed that which threatened the balance of the world. He would kill thousands to save millions. He took no pride in it, it earned him infamy. But he didn't care. Humans had already been at the brink of their own demise many times, and he qualified the reset button in the crudest manner.

Obliteration.

Or in this case, removing the poison before it can infect the whole body, even if it meant removing a limb.

"Humans are like sheep... Stupid creatures blindly following one another, uncaring about those that fall behind or the rare black sheep that is spawned. They need their masters to follow or fall into anarchy... even if the chosen master is little more than another sheep."

"The black sheep is rare and the black sheep is special. It can hide better from its predator and for that the white sheep envy the black sheep, and grow to detest it. The different should be forsaken. The pack is only as strong as it's number so when the black sheep is forced to fend for itself…" Naruto let the sentence run.

"You're the black sheep shepard, you nuture them until they decide to leave." The elder sage said.

"That's true isn't it. The black sheep gather to me, they flock towards me, I offer them guidance and they offer me their companionship. But eventually all roads separate, and the sheep must separate from the shepard. Whether they meet again or not is up to them." Naruto concluded.

"It's never easy is it?" The elder toad sage said.

"When is it ever. I just want to get to the end of the road. Now, do you mind telling me the road of the my newest charge? I know for a fact she's the Child of Prophecy, the shinigami told me that. But from what I understand, it changed when I was sealed inside. What's the new prophecy?" Naruto asked.

The elder toad sage sighed and started to recount the prophecy. "The Child of prophecy, was said to be a teacher of Jiraiya, who was suppose to bring a great revolution to the ninja world and based on his action's would determine the world's salvation or destruction…

"Now, the Child of prophecy will be a student of the one who was once one with the Rikudo Sennin. The Child surrounded by hate and fear will be guided by the hands of destruction, will bring salvation. The child, with the power to do the impossible will be a beacon to those that still follow the light." The toad sage said.

'Tch…Was that an obvious point at me or just the universe and Kami messing with me. Another student…Such Misfortune…' Naruto thought.

"Kami really is trying to mess with me now. How unlike her to start involving me, well she owe's me a favor, and I'm damn well collecting." Naruto muttered, Damn them, he wished that the Shinigami had explained at least a bit before sealing him, but no just a conversation and a 'Kami and Shinigami owe you one' coupon.

One doesn't live a life of immortality without meeting the higher plane of existences. It was weird at first but apparently they couldn't actually interfere with his life, the actions that made him immortal were through human means which could not be helped. Though they did try to kill him a few times before he decided to get a joyride to heaven and talk to the big ma'am herself. It was awesome too.

After a few world destroying attacks were sent at him by various gods, he finally got a word in edge wise. Before they sealed him, he would sometimes be summon against his will for some Tea, in the back of his mind, he thought they just liked to mess with him, they were fickle and petty like that.(A/N I will come back to this, just later in the story.)

"Enough about that, what will you guys do? Will you guys stand by me or will you be with your summoner?" Naruto asked the old geezer.

"Unfortunately, a contract is binding unless there's a good reason to annul it. So if you're an enemy of the Summoner, we must fight you, as hesitant as we might be." The toad said.

"It's ok. I'll just have to work around it. I should probably be heading back to Kasumi. She's probably going to wake up soon. Until we meet again Gama-chan." Naruto said as he waved at the toad disappearing in a swirl of chakra..

The toad looked at the ground where his fox friend stood. He couldn't help but feel sad. "You've lived a a long life my friend, But your final act draws near. In my vision I saw you fading away into nothingness. I hope you accomplish your promise by then." The toad sage thought while switching to his senile self.

Hey, messing with people is fun.


Uzumaki Kasumi wasn't a very smart person, she could admit that to herself. She didn't understand a lot of things and couldn't read the tension in the air at all, but if anything she relied on her gut. The basic instinct that all living things have was the way she based her attitude on. If she didn't feel like the person was good, she would be wary of them, if she felt comfortable around someone, she allowed herself a bit of relaxation.

At the moment she had woken up and she stared at the sky, she could remember her earlier memories as a child. She actually didn't trust anyone except a very few people back then, but her 'other' self had some sort of commitment that she could change the opinion of everybody that saw her as less than useless. Her gut back then told her that it was stupid of her to believe that but she needed a reason to look forward, at least one more day.

Her gut instincts were always right, but she just ignored them. But at the present, she felt like crap. She was more insightful now, she knew that. Her thoughts weren't jumbled up like before. But she couldn't get over the fact that even though her instincts told her that she shouldn't have trusted the Toad Sannin, but she did.

When she was pushed off the cliff, she saw her life flash before her eyes, and it wasn't a pretty sight. Part of her wondered how it would turn out if she became like that Gaara guy. Though there was one thing she would regret if she had died at that time. It was that Naruto AKA the Kyuubi would die with her. Though in a sick and twisted way, she was happy that she would die with someone she could consider her nearest and dearest.

But when she suddenly opened her eyes expecting to either see heaven or hell, she was on top of the most fluffiest fur she ever felt. She was pretty confused at that point. But when she was put on the ground and she turned around to see the Kyuubi, out of its cage, well most people would either be screaming murder or faint, but not her. Oh no, she did just what you think she would.

She demanded answers.

Now thinking about it, it did seem pretty crazy. It wasn't until she started realizing something was going on with his body did she stop her motor-mouth self. But then when its or rather his body started taking a humanoid figure did she feel her breathe hitch.

She spotted the humanoid version of her dearest friend and would admit, he was attractive. She particularly liked his orange-red hair. His eyes were strange but yet had a mystical aura about them, one eye socket held the most beautiful ruby colored shade of red she had ever seen, like the deepest crimson or the most bloodiest red. The other socket held the intriguing color of Amethyst she could have found. Like a shining crystal or like when the sky was smeared with the same color, she couldn't help but be drawn in.

On a side note, the fox ears and tails were to die for, but she would most likely use them for cuddling if she ever got close enough to him.

Then she started processing the information in her head, her most closest friend was handsome, scratch that he was the most handsome guy she had met in her life. It did help that most of the boys she knew were total assholes. Then she started going over there conversations, and when he couldn't contact her, she acted like a desperate girlfriend trying to find her boyfriend that she thought was cheating on her or something. And when she finally spoke to him, she actually tried to scold him for not being able to talk to her…like some wife or something. It also didn't help that she was in her teenage years and her mind was overflowing with hormones and pent up anger and stress. It became too much to her.

She fainted.

'God that was embarrassing.' She thought as she wrapped the soft fur that covered her and made herself more comfortable. It took her about 10 minutes to realize that she had fainted in the woods, how the hell did she have something to cover herself up with.

She immediately jumped up taking aware of her surroundings, she looked around and found that she was in a forest, the Forest of death actually. She looked around but found no one. Before she could think, she was hauled up into the air, feeling something constrict her stomach. After snapping out of her dizziness from being turned upside down so suddenly, she felt herself move towards the tree that was behind her. She saw the figure and quickly saw the most noticeable features, the fox ears and tail…tails…

She could feel herself blushing…or maybe it was the blood rushing towards her head, but in any case she felt more self aware about herself. But she quickly squashed any romantic thoughts, she wasn't a damn flower, she wasn't a fangirl. She was Uzumaki –Fucking- Kasumi.

"Hey, what's the big idea! Let me go you-Umph!" She cried out, suddenly being dropped

"You got your wish chibi-hime." Naruto bowed comically.

"Teme! You- Wait…Naruto?" Kasumi asked.

"Right in one Kasumi." Naruto said, helping the girl up.

"Who? How? What? When?" Kasumi asked frantically.

"In order, I'm Naruto the Kyuubi, it was the consequence of me forcing myself through the seal to save your life, by what I'm assuming how I got this body, well like I told you before I was once human. This was my human form, though I am younger. All this happened about 12 hours ago when a super pervert shoved you down a cliff. Does that answer your question?" Naruto asked, really he just couldn't help but be amused at the former-jinchuuriki.

'It didn't explain it at all!' Kasumi thought. Really, her head was still trying to catch up to what she was seeing. This had opened up a whole new dimension of possibilities in her head. They could train together, eat together, talk face to face and enjoy their time together like regular people, not as a giant fox and a lonely girl.

And it did not involve any sort of cuddling with those fluffy tails, not one bit.

"Yes…No…Well. Ah! Just forget it. So what are we going to do?" Kasumi decided, sitting cross legged on the ground. She wasn't much on thinking, she preferred to have something smashed with her fist. Leave the thinking to the smart people and let the explody people to…explode.

"Well for now, since its night time, we'll go to sleep. Tommorow, we'll start training you. Now that I have a body I can teach you in a more direct manner." Naruto said with a smile. Of course, what he didn't know was that that smile was more like a fox-like grin.

If Kasumi weren't his student, she would have blushed a bit at how fox like Naruto was, but at the moment, she could feel herself become pale, the exercises were crazy but now she had a personal trainer watching her. She was scared alright but part of her didn't want to disappoint him.

"Eh?" She said, not realizing that it was nighttime. She looked at the sky an noticed the stars. It was a spectacular sight. So many stars shining down on them, it was beautiful alright.

"Come on, lets get to bed, you have a very busy schedule for the next few weeks." Naruto said, chuckling to himself.

"But.." Kasumi started saying, she really wanted to look at the stars, no sooner had she said that did several tails wrap around her and lifted her off the ground.

"Hey!" Kasumi screamed.

"You need sleep. You don't realize it but you've been awake for a few days now and your body is showing signs of sleep deprivation. Now you're going to sleep even if I have to make you." Naruto said, not letting go of Kasumi.

Unfortunately, Kasumi took it as a challenge. And she hates loosing.

"Oh no you don't!" She started thrashing around, waving her hands and legs in sporadic movements. She wasn't sleepy! Well maybe she wanted to rest her eyes but that's it.

Of course, Naruto knew how to deal with children, he might as well treat her as one. He threw her up into the air, and as she came down, shouting the whole way, he caught her and gripped each limb and gave her a bear hug.

"Eep!" Kasumi let out when she realized how she was placed. She was wrapped comfortably with his tails and placed between his legs. His arms were around her stomach while she had her head on his chest.

"Your sleeping right now." Naruto stated, it was an order not a choice.

"But…I…-sigh- screw it, your too comfortable." Kasumi stated while adjusting herself. She knew she was fighting a losing battle, might as well go with the flow. At least this way she had a pillow and a fluffy blanket. She drifted off to sleep quicker than one would expect.

Naruto looked up at the stars and whispered to himself "At least the stars haven't changed much. It was always your favorite view….Riku…" He drifted off soon after.


The next day was different for the two. After a quick breakfast and an awkward silence, they decided to start training.

"Alright today, I'll be teaching you Taijutsu, or rather I'll be teaching you the barest essentials of it today." Naruto said, with a pile of rocks by his side.

"Which is…?" Kasumi said, getting a feeling of dread. Suddenly something passed by her head. She turned her head and saw there was a hole in a tree behind her. Growing pale, she turned around and gave her a disbelieving look.

"Its blocking and dodging." Naruto said smiling.

"Oh you have got to be shitting me." Kasumi said horrified.

"I shit you not. What better way to learn than with excruciating pain. Ok, We'll be starting in 3…2..1…"

"W-Wait a second-

"Go!"

"Holy Shit!" She screamed.

A rock flew by her shoulder leaving a scratch on it.

"You Jerk, pervert, jackass, -rock hit her forehead- Sonnava- You did that on purpose!" Kasumi yelled. Oh yeah, she was pissed.

It was the basics of the basics. Kasumi's Taijutsu was shot to hell and it wasn't something she could learn by just listening. But before she could even begin to train in any form, she needed to built up her base. Of course dodging and blocking were the basics of anything. Kasumi's body was sturdy and had great pain tolerance but she was too sluggish to compete with any higher-tier enemies that used internal damage type moves, much like the Hyuuga's Juuken. Since there wasn't going to be enough time to learn any actual Taijutsu stances, he was going to train her reaction time, she was best when she used unpredictable sporadic plans, AKA just winging it.

Kasumi swore every time she was hit. As Kami was her witness, she swore that she would get revenge on Naruto. She didn't know when or how but she was damn well going to do it. Women know how to hold a grudge after all.

After that, Naruto brought out a stick and challenged her to a kenjutsu match. Needless to say, she was beaten up with a stick. 'God damn it, why does that hurt so bad!' She thought. Naruto was using a thin stick that wasn't anything dangerous but it stung like hell. Naruto had corrected a lot of mistakes she was making like stepping into the opponents area of attack carelessly and how to improve her footwork.

"You…shit…jack…I can't even think of anything I haven't called you yet. You're evil!" Kasumi yelled panting.

"Hey, you wanted training, I'm just giving you what you want. Besides if you turn out anything like my last student, you'll be remembered forever." Naruto said.

"Eh? You had another student?" Kasumi said surprised.

"Well…only one official student, I had a lot more but I just offered advice now and again." Naruto said casually.

"Then why are you training me?" Kasumi asked.

It was the truth. She didn't know why Naruto would train her, sure she had a crazy family tree but Naruto apparently trained legends. Out of everyone in the world, how come she was picked.

"Hmm…lets see…its probably because you remind me of them." Naruto said.

"Huh?" She said confused.

"I admit, I don't know you as well as I did the rest but I learned what to look for in a person. You're selfless, you'll help those you call your friend, your dense and stupid, but have a good heart. You're also stubborn and hard headed but kind and a bit obsessive over ramen." Naruto said.

"Hey!"

"But, you refuse to give up even when the world is crashing around you. You'll help people when they fall and always looking for the good in people." Naruto finished.

Kasumi face turned red. Honestly she wasn't complimented often and Naruto just listed a good number of them. It was embarrassing to say the least but at least she knew how he saw her.

"Haha..ha…Thanks –teebayo." Kasumi said, and turned red at her verbal tic. It was even worse because Naruto laughed at it.

"Hey stop laughing!" Kasumi childishly beat on his chest, Naruto just laughed even harder.

Kasumi decided to pout and look away, she didn't want Naruto to see she was smiling. It was what she had wanted, to spend time with a friend, having fun and at each others throats. She was thankful for his companionship and friendship. Her life has been getting better since she met him and even if she was hated by the villagers, as long as Naruto stayed by her, she couldn't help but think it would be okay.


After the first few days of dodging, Naruto decided that he could leave a shadow clone in his place. He needed to get a few things. Just then, he felt a familiar surge of energy towards the east.

"Kasumi, I'm going to go arrange a few things. I'll be back in a while." Naruto commented.

Kasumi looked at the fox boy for a bit in hesitation. But she gave a nod to him. She trusted him with her life, but there are things that he needs to do, he couldn't be her babysitter.

"Come back soon." Kasumi responded.

"I'll do that." Naruto said, before vanishing in a swirl of leaves.

Leaving Kasumi alone, she wondered what she was going to do. She had a day off so she might as well visit the people that mattered to her. She was going to visit the Ichiraku's and eat as much as she could and visit Mikoto-obasan.

For the first time in a while she left the Forest of death and walked towards the village that despised her.


Far east from Konohagakure, a civil war was taking place. Yagura, the Yondaime Mizukage was on a rampage. For a few days now, his thoughts and actions were unpredictable. But now, he seemed to be going on a rampage.

In the water surrounded village of Kirigakure, wide spread destruction riddled the lands. What had started as a bloodline purge was now turning into a massacre of a shinobi village, by its own Kage no less.

"Damn it, what the hell is going on with him. One day he's a good kage, then a blood line racist and now he's just bat shit crazy. Back in my day…" A one eyed eye patch wearing blue haired guy said.

"Ao, for God's sake Shut up or I'll kill you." Said a busty auburn colored haired women said. Normally she would have been more calm but the Yondaime Mizukage had been going on a rampage non stop for days now and now it seemed that he wanted everything to fall.

"M-Mei-sama, over there!" A boy with pointy teeth holding a big weapon said. He pointed at the Giant turtle that was tearing through houses and destroying all enemies. Regardless of which side was which.

"He's taken Sanbi's full form. Retreat!" Mei yelled. Against a Bijuu, they had no hope, they had planned to deal with that in a few months but at that point they were not ready. Her Yoton nor Futton bloodline wouldn't help much and would only serve as a distraction at best. Right now, all they could hope for was to stay alive and fight another day.

But before they could move, a huge shadow loomed over them. Turning around, they saw Sanbi with his tails poised to attack. In a savage assault of repeated attacks, the ground was full with holes everywhere. The survivors of the onslaught could only shake in fear, the power of a Bijuu was frightening.

Mei for all her efforts managed to escape with several cuts and bruises. She looked up to see a mass of chakra. Sickly purple chakra in front of her. She knew that attack, it was a Bijuudama. She sunk to her knees at that moment. There was no way she could overpower a bijuudama, hell not even with all of there combined efforts, at best half the village would be gone.

Just as Sanbi was about to release his attack, everyone heard a voice.

"ISOBU!" A Voice rang through the whole village.

Sanbi suddenly stopped its attack. Everyone even Sanbi turned their heads They saw a boy standing on destroyed debree which reached Sanbi's eyes. Everyone just stared at the boy who had enough balls to look at a freaking bijuu in the eyes. And what did the boy do…

"Yo." He said casually as if he was asking about the weather.

They were all surprised when they heard Sanbi.

"K-Ku…Kurama…" It stuttering out as if it could barely form words.

"Its been a while hasn't it, Otouto." Naruto said.


YEAH! I finally made something. I wonder if I'll be able to keep this up. Don't hope for a lot people, I have more idea's for experimental fics which I might put up.

Anyways, the reason I put the Sanbi thing was because the time skip was approaching and a friend apparently told me it was because Sanbi vanished and Akatsuki needed to wait 3 years for it to appear again. I'm not sure if its true but I decided to go with it.

God, I don't know how other people do it. Those guys are awesome, to be able to put up a chapter at least once a month.

Anyways, please comment on this fic.

Look forward to the reviews and hope for me to write something.

Aku is out!
