Hey hey, I am sooooooo sorry this took soooooo long to upload. I literally started my new year in college and my job and my major and minor have lowkey been kicking my but so much these past 2 months that I just couldn't find the time to write this chapter. This chapter is a little shorter and I wasn't able to make multiple sections within one chapter showing different P.O.V's like I usually do, but for this chapter it was kind of necessary to do so not to take away from the upcoming problem… so yeah without further ado here is chapter 6. And I just want to thank all of ya'll who have probably been annoyed with me, but nonetheless stuck with this story and I hope continue to stick with it. I promise you I won't undergo any writers block, but as I said before with my job and school, the updating of this story may be a lot slower than usual. I apologize for that!
Disclaimer: I do not own anything related to the Naruto series, if I did, I wouldn't be making fanfics lol.
Enemies near and bloodshed. Kisses of darkness filling their heads. Three little souls play a big part in this game. Three little souls will become the pawns. Three little souls- Nara and the Uzumaki Siblings- but only two won't disappear like air.
Shikadai Nara's whole body was frozen. Himawari Uzumaki still was hunched over him, though she stopped all movement. Shikadai quickly realized it was because whatever had been hurting the small girl had made the small girl lose consciousness. Not only that but now it was pitch black in his room and he could no longer see if Boruto was still in front of him. His voice was caught in his throat too.
This is bad. Like really bad….
Shikadai strained in the dark to see at least something. Anything. As soon as his green eyes adjusted slightly to the darkness he regretted being able to somewhat see. It had begun to rain outside and just as Shikadai's heart began to race, lightning broke out in the angry sky revealing what he suspected to be true.
A male not much older than Shikadai and Boruto himself stood in the doorway with his arm around Boruto's neck. Boruto attempted to get away from him but it appeared the male's hold was too tight.
Shikadai was finally able to get his voice back, choosing to yell after his friend.
"BO-"
"I wouldn't scream if I were you. You will only make it more painful for yourself." The male said as he took his arm from around Boruto's neck making the boy collapse on the floor and stutter before knocking out. He rolled the blonde ninja a little more in the room and then locked the door. Shikadai gulped, as the unknown man walked right up to his bed. Shikadai noted this male's voice was quiet, raspy yet stern. He didn't like it, It made him uncomfortable.
"I suppose I should introduce myself to you?"
He picked up Himawari and placed her on the floor next to Boruto gently.
"Hima!"
He looked back at the Nara boy awaiting him to answer and ignoring Shikadai's attempt to keep him from moving the younger Uzumaki. His eye slightly twitched.
"I asked you a question."
Shikadai nodded slowly. The male maintained his blank expression.
"I'm Yuugure."
He bowed to Shikadai.
"Pleased to meet you Shikadai Nara."
With that Yuugure walked over to Shikadai and grabbed his hurt arm to which Shikadai winced. The dirty blonde male snapped the arm back in place. Shikadai felt the rush of pain and blood rush to his now bruised arm. In shock he couldn't think straight much less yell. Yuugure then began to heal the arm.
"I am here to take the one who will be beneficial to Lord Orichimaru."
Shikadai bit his lip and glared at Yuugure.
"I don't-"
"Let me finish. I have been given strict guidelines tonight, and I expect to meet them. So you can either answer my next questions, or you can become a mere puppet to me. You pick."
Shikadai grunted. He was still in pain but he was trying his best to ignore that. He was now more concerned about what little information Yuugure just gave him.
He's ordered to take someone. And by the looks of it, it is either Hima or Boruto, I can't let him have either, but what does he mean but make me his puppet?
"That would mean I become a traitor to Konoha wouldn't it?"
Yuugure finished healing him and stared.
"Your point?"
Just then the both of them heard someone at the door. The door knob rattled. Someone was trying to get in.
"SHIKADAI!"
Shikadai instantly knew it was Ino trying to get inside the room. Shikadai was about to yell at her but Yuugure expertly grabbed him covering his mouth and yanking him off the bed.
"Don't you dare…"
Yuugure quickly realized he was too busy messing with the Nara child to notice the older Uzumaki slowly making his way to the door. Boruto had his hand on the door knob when Kirai appeared stabbing his hand. Boruto yelled out in pain. Yuugure glared at his teammate.
Ino and a couple other ninja were outside Shikadai's room. They all heard the scream and Ino began to panic. Sakura Uchiha ran up to the blonde headed woman along with the rest of the kids.
"Stand back all of you…. SHANNARO!"
Sakura bust down the door flipping on the light switch to see the room was now empty. Shocked she looked back at Ino.
"Ino-chan, What the hell happened? Where is Shikadai!?"
Ino stared bewildered.
"I- I left him for two seconds, but when the lights cut off I came to check on him. That's when it sounded like someone else was in there with him and that there was a bit of a struggle going on. Sakura-chan…"
"You three go check the Uzumaki room now. I have a bad feeling about this."
The other ninja that were with Ino left to check Boruto's room. The next generation stared in confusion at the situation.
"Mama?"
Sakura looked back at her daughter and her friends. An ANBU appeared suddenly.
"Sakura Uchiha, Ino Yamanaka, Lady Tsunade has asked for both of your assistance on the field."
Sakura and Ino looked at one another. Sakura turned back to Sarada.
"Sara- everything is going to be okay."
Sakura gave her daughter a smile. Sarada could tell her mother's smile was false. Sakura knew something that Sarasa didn't and that scared her. Where was that idiot, Shikadai, and Hima?
"Ino-chan, could you-"
"Already on it."
Ino weaved her signs and got into contact with her old teammate Shikamaru Nara. She opened her eyes again and nodded at Sakura.
"Okay you guys, stay safe." With that the two women dispersed.
Sarada, Inojin, Chocho, and Tai all stood in front of the door unsure what was going on.
"What is going on?"
Sarada walked into the now vacant room. Yuugure had Shikadai and Boruto in a tight hold, draining both of their chakra and his own so that the child would not sense them out. Kirai meanwhile focused on creating the illusion that the room was vacant as the Uchiha stood right in front of them. Shikadai wiggled.
"Sarada! Get out of here!"
Kirai rolled her eyes.
"Shut up Nara, she won't be able to hear you. For all these stupid Leaf ninja know we are long gone."
"What are you doing?"
"Shikadai, Kirai has put a genjitsu on this room. In other words anyone who enters sees nothing but an empty room, even though we of course are standing right here."
"This girl is going to be a problem Yuugure."
"How so?"
"Look at her."
Yuugure did as Kirai said and glared.
"She's an Uchiha."
"If she's smart enough to use her sharingan, she'll see us . what to do, what to do."
"I got this."
"Hmm?"
Kirai looked at Yuugure. Yuugure let go of both Shikadai and Boruto. AT first Shikadai and Boruto thought this was their chance, but quickly realized Yuugure still, though no longer holding them physically had shadows holding them. Yuugure weaved unknown signs to the boys.
"-What?"
Boruto was holding his hand in pain as he watched the dirty blonde male. Boruto had no idea why the signs seemed familiar to him before. Boruto closed his eyes trying to see where he could have seen anything like that….
Boruto was sleeping under a sakura tree close by to his trainging ground. The wind whistled past his blonde locks, but nonetheless the boy was knocked out. Boruto slowly but surely entered his dream. It had been awhile since he had dreamed of anything. In his dream there was a baby animal that resembled a fox sitting on what looked like to be a sealing jutsu on the cold hard ground. Its eyes were white- similar to his mother's eyes. Confused, Boruto slowly walked up to it. He was a good distance away from it but close enough to see that it wasn't a fox but a Jackal. Before Boruto could speak the animal growled.
"So YOU are that Jinchuriki's brat."
Boruto stared at the animal with his mouth opened.
"You-You talk dattebasa?"
The Jackal scoffed before trying to attack him; however a male with dirty blonde hair jumped in and weaved unknown signs instantly making the room pitch black. Boruto stepped back trying to pinpoint where the male and jackal had went off to. Suddenly, Boruto's shoes stepped into a liquid. The boy quickly pulled out a lighter and cast it down trying to see what was on the floor only to see blood leaking. Shaken he looks up to see red hues staring back at him. Boruto suddenly lost his balance and put his arms up in defense. However, the male simply put his hand on the boy's stomach, and cast a seal on him. Boruto yelled in agony as black sealing marks began to cover his body. He clutched his stomach even tighter as his eyes flickered from blue to red to golden.
"Wh-What did you do?"
"… Silence."
Boruto reopened his eyes.
"NO!"
Boruto tried to charge at Yuugure, but Yuugure's shadow simply wrapped itself around him more. He struggled under its grasp. Kirai laughed wickedly at the scene. Yuugure ignored it. He finished weaving the signs and placed his hand on top of Sarada's forehead, who of course was not able to see him at first. However, sllowly her eyes changed to the red eyes that had always conflicted the Uchiha. She saw Yuugure in front of her suddenly, but before she could do anything or say anything a shock pulsed through her body.
"AAAAHHH!"
Inojin, Chocho,and Tai all ran into the room.
"SARADA!"
Inojin was able to catch Sarada before she hit the hard floor. Tai and Chocho looked around for an enemy, but saw no one.
"Yo Inojin and Tai, I dunno what's going on, but I think we should leave this room."
The boys nodded before quickly exiting. Inojin wasn't sure what had happened to Sarada but he was able to make out a bruise that was now noticeable on the girl's head. He began to cure her with what little medical ninja technique his mother had taught him.
"Nice work Yuugure."
"Hmm. She won't be waking up anytime soon. It gives us enough time to finish this mission successfully."
Kirai nodded.
"Can you get us into the open a little bit more?"
"Of course."
Again Yuugure made his signs and the five that were in the hospital room were now outside the village gates close to a pond.
"Perfect Yuugure."
Kirai looked at the subjects.
"You have only one chance to answer this question."
Boruto and Shikadai huffed. Himawari was still unconscious, but she was slowly beginning to wake up.
"And if we don't answer?"
Kirai raised her eyebrows.
"Oh- you really think resisting will do you good right now?"
"Kirai focus"
"Dark embrace jutsu"
Suddenly Boruto felt something in his stomach snap. Yuugure grunted.
"Kirai, Kirai, you need to learn to be patient. You didn't even give them the chance to answer your question."
Himawari began to writhe in pain too.
"What can I say? I can't be nice Yuugure."
"Hmph, fine, I suppose this will be faster anyway."
"Wait- don't hurt them we'll answer your question!"
Boruto shook his head.
"Shikadai no. No matter what we say one of us is still not going to be a member of Konoha anymore."
"What- What are you talking about?"
"Ahh. Yuugure I seems we have miscalculated. The Hokage's son is a little bit smarter than what we assumed…"
Yuugure weaved those same signs. Boruto sucked in air too harshly. Kirai smiled maliciously before staring at the three.
"Okay answer this question. Who is stronger? Orichimaru sama, or your dear hokage."
Boruto and Shikadai stared at the woman in disbelief. Himawara slowly lifted herself up.
"You are hurting me… you will pay. Daddy will save us."
Just then Yuugure and Kirai could hear the famous blonde ninja shout somewhere close to them.
Kirai looked.
"Shit… we took too long."
"No we didn't, we know who to take."
Kirai looked at Yuugure.
"And how."
"That one."
Yuugure pointed to Himawari. Kirai scoffed.
"Oh please. Take the boy, he's stronger,"
Yuugure shook his head before roughly grabbing Himawari. Boruto and Shikadai began to really struggle.
"Hey!" Shikadai shouted.
"Let my little sister go you freaks! Let her go. My dad will be here to kill you soon dattebasa. If you let her go I'll let him cut you some slack."
"I do apologize young prince."
Kirai rolled her eyes.
"Stop being so nice Yuugure!"
Yuugure ignored her.
" But I can tell you we won't be able to do that."
Boruto slowly began to stand up loosening the jutsu that restrained him a little.
"Then take me! Just don't take Hima!"
"BORUTO! HIMAWARI! SHIKADAI!"
Yuugure smiled.
"We would rather have the Uzumaki who can see well."
Himawari gasped as Yuugure pierced her stomach making both her and Boruto wince. Soon Hima's usual blue hues slowly changed to the same lilac her mother was blessed with.
"Well what do you know, you were right Yuugure."
Just then Naruto jumped in front of his son and Shikadai.
"What the hell do you think you're doing with my DAUGHTER!"
Kirai took a step back.
"Yu-Yuugure?"
"Ah. Hokage sama. It is a pleasant day. I finally get to meet your greatness. However I am sad to say we cannot stay. Even if I would love to stay and enjoy some ramen with you. But we really must get Himawari to fulfill her destiny.."
Naruto charged at Yuugure, who though was shocked, somehow countered the Hokage's speed. Stepping and swinging his body around, Naruto was able to almost grab Hima's hand who had automatically held it out for her father only to come head to head with the harsh reality…. He missed. And the trio- Yuugure, Kirai, and the precious sunflower of the Leaf Village vanished.
The two boys and Naruto watched in horror as Himawari was no more.
OH NOOOOOOSSSSS! HIMA! Tune in for the next chapter guys!
