Chapter 2

The blonde teen with whiskers walks out the class to encounter the eyes of a demon. His glossy red hair pulled back, tied into a small pony tail and his intense eyes piercing Naruto's boundaries. The red aura flowing from him as he grips Naruto by the collar, pulling him close so he could break into Naruto's soul, hoping to make him weak, but Naruto isn't some push-over.

He stares at him head on.

"What the hell were you thinking...?" He questioned, almost laughing "I'll give you this one chance, since you're new, but stay away from my girl. You hear me?"

Taiga is holding his posture completely perfect, almost fierce like a lion, but his goons behind him are breathing hard which means they must have ran here. If Naruto's going to fight, he must do it now or else they would recover and make him regret it. Naruto needed a closer look, observing Taiga's physical appearance and stats. He could understand why he's the gang leader of this region, and his stats can be compared to Neji Hyuuga. The muscular physique and eyes that look like death itself. He is definitely formidable.

As for his pile of minion behind him, their easily laughable. If Taiga were to go to war with Neji right now, Neji would win indefinitely. The only reason this school is considered one of the Four Ring King's is because of Taiga and only Taiga.

"Leave your girl?" Naruto scoffs, looking at him head on, "Ino is not something that can be won. She can choose who she wants to love."

Naruto slowly smiles. He's willing to trade blows right now, he's not know as the Yellow Fang for nothing. The only King without a gang. Taiga looks down and he could see it too. They both have identical rings, but if you really look at it. The two aren't too far off from each other, Taiga has a gang, but if he were in Naruto's shoes and doesn't have one. It would really be just the same and that's just because his gang is a bunch of losers.

"That's just my two-cents." Naruto said, jerking Taiga's hand off him. Taiga grunts, but isn't affected whatsoever. It was like having an equal force bump against another equal force.

"You don't deserve Ino's love..." Taiga stammered, showing his one weakness. Naruto raises one brow, surprised that someone like him has such a weakness. He glowers at this pitiful man and nods his head, "Then fight for her..." Naruto said, raising his fist in the air, ready to fight.

Taiga was more than ready to take his offer, but before they could trade blows. The person whose existence caused all of this, walks out the door and is stunned from what she's seeing. Taiga swings, but Ino jumps right in front of Naruto and Taiga stops himself before committing something that would make him hate his life forever.

"Stop this!" Ino shrieks, and Taiga steps a feet back, looking uneasy. "What are you doing Taiga?"

"I..." He stammered once more, putting his hands in his pocket. He was trying to keep his image strong, and he didn't too much of a bad job, but when it comes to the eyes of Naruto. He could easily see that the poor man's shaking.

Taiga can tell when he's being read so he marches off, but before disappearing down the stairs he looks at Naruto one more time, "You've been warned...I better not see you tomorrow." He then disappears from their view.

Naruto watches him leave and then suddenly feel's his face being grabbed by two soft hands. He's tense figure completely disappears and he's attention turned to the upset girl in front of him, "Are you trying to get suspended on your first day?" she asked, messing around with his face. Naruto wouldn't usually allow anyone to do this, but he'll let her off since she did save him from being suspended again.

"He'sh shtarted it!" Naruto complained, talking like a little kid because of his lips being pushed together. "Shtop it!" Naruto grumbled and Ino finally releases him, giggling like a little girl playing with her favorite toy. The laugh was contagious and Naruto couldn't help but chuckle, he doesn't know why, but it seems that today might not be so bad after all.

Ino grabs Naruto's hand, and Naruto gives a small startled look as Ino pulls hims with a sneering expression. The two walk outside and find the nearest bench. It was a break period for the Ino and Naruto still has to go through his schedule.

"Bring it out..." Ino said, smiling while looking at Naruto. Naruto had a slight blush on his face. The perfect outing, no one's outside...this is just like what a couple would do. He swallows hard. He could see why Taiga's so broken when he see's her, but he didn't know it would be in this level.

"Are you sure?" Naruto asked, he had to make sure. He couldn't believe Ino was so bold. Ino nods her head, winking at him.

"We have to see your classes of course!"

"Classes..."

Naruto felt like an idiot and hands his papers. Ino then grabs it and get's to work, telling Naruto important facts about teachers and how they teach. Naruto went to grab juice boxes and told her to relax, it was her break period after all, but when he comes back she had already constructed a full page of notes.

The notes were about what teachers like to see from their students and it was really uniquely planned out. Naruto thanks her, but even then. She was still concerned for his academic grades. Naruto wasn't really concerned of skipping class. He was planning to do it anyways in the first place. Teachers usually give chances to their students when they miss the first day.

He didn't know he would be spending it on learning more than usual. It wasn't bad. It wasn't like he didn't have fun learning from Ino, but for some odd reason. He couldn't really concentrate. She was just too intoxicating with her smiles, that whenever she did smile. He did the same.

It was the middle of period and Ino finally calms down. Naruto's leaning against his seat, sucking on a juice box when Ino asks him something that he didn't know would come from her.

"Why do you have such a baby face?" she giggles and Naruto crunches his brows together. He had trouble with people calling him the baby face killer and not the yellow fang, but when Ino say's it. It's just cute.

"I don't know...I never saw the faces of my parent's anyways...so I can't tell you."

Ino quickly puts her hand over her mouth, regretting she even asked.

"I'm sorry...Naruto..." she looked hurt and Naruto immediately felt bad. He shouldn't have said that, but it was the truth. His parents died in a fire, both were senior detectives of some firm and that's why the government felt reliable for Naruto. They were hailed as the greatest detectives of all time and Naruto couldn't help but wonder if his life would be any different if they were there.

The son of the most prestigious detectives of Konoha is a delinquent.

That doesn't even ring well in his own head. He sighs and Ino tries to make it up for him, "Let's go early to lunch! We'll get to have the first sandwiches and won't have to fight through the crowd." She grabs Naruto's hand and drags him back inside.

After running around in a while. The two of them arrive to the cafeteria and find the place empty like Ino promised. They got their sandwiches and sat down at the two-people seat. The question Ino asked before was really bringing her down. She tried to turn cheerful, but Naruto could really see the effect it was having on her.

"You know...my parents were great police detectives so they did die for a noble cause." Naruto said, nudging Ino on her left shoulder which made her smile a little. She looks up to him, "Really?" she asked, finally nibbling on her sandwich.

Naruto nods his head with a confident smile, "Oh yea! They were the best in their position and they would be proud of me for hanging out with such a beautiful girl." Naruto said and Ino blushes slightly. Naruto then grabs her hand and winks at her, "So let's make them happy by being together, okay?"

Ino bites into her sandwich happily and nods her head, savoring the goodness of having fresh sandwiches. Naruto smiles and at a far distance, hiding in the darkest part of the lunch room is none other than the red haired devil himself.

"Damn it! It should be me Ino's smiling with..." he said, stroking his hair backwards. Whenever he get's irritated, he would stroke his hair. It's a weird, but definitely unique. The person standing right beside Taiga had a troublesome expression on his face. He helplessly smiles at that idiot, noticing he didn't listen to a word he said when he told him she was off limits.

Kiba sighs and Taiga glances at him, "What's bothering you, Kiba-kun?"

Kiba immediately straightens up and shakes his head, "Nothing really..."

"Oh, okay..." Taiga said, not convinced, "So do you have any information about Naruto Uzumaki?" Kiba nods his head and brings out some yellow folders from his pack. Kiba is a fresh recruit, but considering he's in this gang that constructed by a bunch of goons. He easily rose in the ranks and became the second man in charge.

"Naruto Uzumaki, fourth leader of the Four Ring Kings. He's currently the only king without a gang and is notoriously known for beating the second leader of the Four Ring Kings, Hyuuga Neji." Kiba said, reading on, "Naruto Uzumaki is exempt from having a gang because of his constant move from school to school. His role as a King is still questionable and is being decide by the King of all Kings, Uchiha Sasuke."

Taiga already figured that Naruto was a king by the time he saw the ring. He didn't know that Neji loss to him and could prove troublesome for Taiga. He sighs and nods his head, "Alright..." he then stands up, stretching, "Let's go Kiba...it's time to decide what we're going to do with this runt..."

Kiba nods and follows Taiga behind him. Taiga couldn't help but feel uneasy about this fourth leader. He had heard from him several times and wished to fight him, but knowing what's at stake here...he doesn't know anymore. He wouldn't risk Ino's love for the world. The image of Ino appears on his mind and he quickly clenches his fist, "If anyone deserves to be with Ino...it should be me. I won't have my hard work tossed in the trash...I..." he stammers, feeling weak in the knees. This is the weakness Naruto was pondering about. "I..." he said it with resolve this time, gathering his strength, "I will not have Ino taken from me." he then looks back at Naruto who's having a splendid time with Ino.

"Prepare yourself...Uzumaki, Naruto!"
