So here is chapter 5...I don't know where I put my head for the past week. I could have sworn I posted this chapter already...oh well. Here it is! More Nyu, Lucy , and psychotic body rippers than ever! Actually not so much in this chapter, but I promise someone will be ripped in half soon

(please be patient) + (I don't own any part of Naruto)

An old friend

Naruto said, "I don't know what you're apologizing for. I don't even know you." Her eyes widened, Lips forming an O. She asked, "You...you don't remember me...?" Naruto scratched his head in unease. he tried to explain, "I feel like I've met you before or that I know you, but I think it's just a feeling... Have we met before?" She sank inside herself, "You don't...remember me. Why would you...we were just little kids." Of course...it's been how many years...I look so different. I can't expect you to remember me..." She looked away from him, tears starting to fall again.

It was killing him to see her cry and not know why. He said, "Maybe you should take a shower. If you cleaned up a bit I might recognize you..." She looked slowly at him, "Are you sure?" He said, "Yeah, I'm sure. The shower is just down the hall on the right." She nodded and slipped off the bed. Naruto said, "Wait...those clothes are pretty damaged. Let me get you something to wear after. He scrambled off the bed and to a small dresser in the corner of the room. He opened the drawer and pulled out a dark purple shirt and black pajama pants.

He walked over and handed them to her. He said, "Here you go...they were from a girl that used to live here...with me... Anyway your taller than her and skinnier, so they might be big on you..." She took the clothes and quietly said, "Thankyou...Naruto..." She was walking down the hallway when he shouted, "Hey...What is your real name?" She said, "...Lucy..."

Naruto lay on his bed staring at the ceiling. He couldn't get her out of his head. Her name is Lucy...Damn it's killing me. I know that I know her, but I can't remember where. Hell I can remember that she used to have short hair, but I can't remember her name? Why do I feel like this so suddenly!?

The sound of footsteps came down the hall. He sat up as she came in the room. Naruto almost had a heart attack. She was naked. And she wasn't very dry either. Her hair was a wet tangled mess. Naruto asked nearly fainting, "Where...are the clothes I gave you?!" She turned her head away, her cheeks reddening. She said, "I couldn't put them on." Naruto said, "Lucy..." Her eyes moved back to him. "Come here." She crossed her arms over her pale breasts and walked over to the side of the bed. After a second she sat down. Naruto got up and went to the bathroom. He grabbed the Hairbrush, scissors, and a towel.

He returned and climbed onto the bed, positioning himself behind her. She blushed even more. Naruto started at the ends of her hair, working out the knots and snipping with the scissors where it was just too tangled. He was blushing too, but his work kept his mind focused on the situation instead of on the naked girl in front of him. Slowly her beautiful hair, which was light red, became untangled. His hands moved slowly, as he had reached her neckline. Lucy leaned back a bit at his request. Naruto's fingers fumbled when he brushed the back of her neck. It was very tedious, but eventually he worked his way to the top of her head.

Naruto stopped as his hand touched a hard lump under all the hair. He brushed it away to see a small horn poking out of the side of her head. He checked the other side. There was one there as well. Naruto said, "I would swear that I've seen these before..." Lucy turned to look him in the eye. She said, "You've touched them too." Her voice was low...almost a whisper. Naruto ran his fingers over them. Lucy shivered. He asked, "Did you feel that?" She nodded, "They're...sensitive..." Naruto rubbed them feeling the smooth texture.

Lucy gasped, "What are you..." Naruto asked, "Can you really feel that?" She whimpered, "Yes...It ...feels..." She pulled his hands away. Naruto felt his stomach churn pleasantly, "Ok, let me finish brushing your hair and then you can take another shower so it actually gets clean." He finished unknotting her long hair and then pulled the brush through it. After a few times he felt Lucy pushing her head into the brush. He smiled and pressed down harder.

Lucy had closed her eyes, just enjoying the feeling of Naruto brushing her hair. A long time passed before Naruto said, "I think it's time for you to take another shower." Lucy felt herself wanting to scold him for stopping the brush, but she held herself in check. Standing she walked back down the hall. After a moment, Naruto followed. She heard him coming behind her. She turned, "What are you doing?" Naruto shrugged, "I figured that since you didn't think to brush your hair...that you would need directions..." Lucy asked, "For what...?"

Ten minutes later, sitting in the tub with Naruto, she found out. It was quite enjoyable too. He rubbed shampoo into her hair, massaging it into the roots. She found herself relaxing but her body was still tied up in tense knots. Lucy gasped. Naruto had switched from shampooing her hair, to pressing his thumbs into the back of her neck. He massaged her neck and then down her back. She thought she was going to die, but her muscles slowly relaxed, the tension leaving her. Lucy craned her head back to look at Naruto. His eyes were closed as he pressed the tension out of her shoulders.

She closed her own eyes again as she asked, "Naruto...do you still think that...that my horns are cute?" He cracked an eyelid as though he was checking. He said, "Their pretty cute, believe me." His hands smoothed the bubbles out of her hair. He chucked nervously, "But I could be wrong...under all these suds." Lucy quickly stood and turned the shower head back on. She pushed her head under the torrent of water. The hot water felt amazing. It had been months since she had a hot bath of any kind. But right now she wanted to hear Naruto tell her...tell her that she...was cute.

Lucy turned back and slid into the water facing him, "So...?" He blushed red. Lucy thought, He's too embarrassed by how ugly I turned out to speak. I knew it... Naruto said, "Lose the frown or I won't tell you." That shocked her out of her frown. She smiled despite the fact that she knew she was unattractive. Naruto said, "Your horns are very cute...as long as your happy." He put his hand on her head. He smiled, "Your also very beautiful when you don't look sad." Lucy felt her eyes begin to water. She lunged forward into Naruto's arms. She said, "Naruto...I've wanted to see you for so long. I wanted to thank you, but now that...now that your Hokage..." Naruto put his arm around her. He asked, "Why did you want to thank me?" "Becaus...!

Yugito asked, "Hey Naruto...I didn't realize that you were such a pervert. But I guess the student didn't stray too far from the teachings." Lucy shot to her feet and took a step forward. Her whole body radiated anger, "Why did you come in here?...!" Lucy's foot slipped in the tub and she fell forward. Her hands caught her fall, but her head hit the edge of the toilet. Yugito looked down at her. She asked, "Who is this?" Lucy shakily sat up as she asked. The girl looked up. Naruto heard her say, quite distinctly, "Nyu?"

Naruto sat with Lucy...or was it Nyu, cuddling in his lap. Killer B sat in a large recliner while Yugito perched atop a stool she had taken from the kitchen. Yugito asked her question again, "So let me get this straight. This murderer, who has been sneaking from place to place is this girl? And she just so happens to have a dual personality? Not to mention you think you met her when you were a kid...and that you were friends?" Naruto nodded. "She was just like this for the whole meeting with everyone. Then I brought her back here...and uh...kissed her..." Killer be said, "Now Yugito...my girl. I told you how he is. He's just like that Jiraiya fellow ain't he?" She nodded, "When you got out of the tub and you were wearing swim-trunks...I had hope for you, but if you were kissing on her even before then, Well there's no doubt."

He looked at the two jinchuriki who were giving him such a hard time. He continued where he left off. "After I...kissed her she became like a completely different person. She was even talking normally." Yugito shrugged, "Well what are we to do...your kisses obviously have some curative property. Maybe you should bottle them and sell them to the highest bidder." Naruto said, "Yugito...! You heard her speak and then she hit her head again and she's back to Nyuing at everything!"

Naruto said, "Watch this!" He positioned Nyu in his lap facing outward. She Nyued at him. He took a deep breath and quickly kissed her on the cheek. She just blinked. Yugito clapped as though the night outside had turned to day. Naruto growled and turned Nyu's face to kiss her on the lips.

Lucy tensed and the coffee table imploded. Killer B was sent flying along with his chair. Lucy looked at Naruto strangely. She said, "I'm..sorry Naruto... I didn't mean to do that." Yugito looked dumbstruck at Naruto, "Hey! You weren't kidding. Your kisses really are special..." Lucy's head snapped to the side. She growled, "YOU! You interrupted me!" Yugito felt something slam into her. She was knocked head over heels into the wall behind her. She faintly heard Naruto say, "Lucy! Don't do that. They are my friends. Their just like me! their Jinchuriki.

Lucy froze and relaxed slightly. Naruto felt the nature energy around him shift. He could feel what seemed to be four arms of pure...something. They returned, sinking into Lucy's back. Naruto asked, "What are those arms?" Yugito sat up against the wall. She said, "Whatever they are, they're invisible. How can you see them?" Naruto was about to answer when Lucy exclaimed, "You can see them?!" He nodded, "Yeah...sort of, It's hard to explain."

She looked away saying, "Kabuto called them Vectors. They can't be seen by normal people. Even most powerful shinobi can't even sense them." Naruto looked startled, "You knew Kabuto?" Her eye's hardened, "Yes I knew him and that bastard Orochimaru. He kept me locked away in this special chamber. He would always tell me how lucky I was. I would be Orochimaru's next vessel...like that was great or something. And then one day...it's like he lost interest in me. All he did was bring food and water. After a while he didn't even come himself. He just sent a servant to take care of basic needs. Then a while ago even the servant stopped coming. I thought that they had finally deserted me."

Lucy swallowed hard. " It took me three days to break free with my vectors and when I was loose...I found myself in this huge underground labyrinth. Everyone inside was crazy. I had to kill everyone I met to keep them from killing me. It took me a week to get out. When I was outside I realized that I had no one. No one knew me or would want a strange girl like me. I don't remember my family. I was starving so I tried begging at the nearest village I came to. One of the villagers threatened me with a knife. Told me to go away, that he didn't like stupid beggar girls hanging around. He was mean...I killed him and when his buddy tried to run I killed him too."

Yugito had stopped to listen raptly. Killer B also listened. He had it bad when he was little, but not like her. She had been experimented on and imprisoned then left to rot. Naruto felt a deep pang of his old loneliness, listening to her story. It opened a door in his mind. He felt like he was back in his five year old body. Talking to a girl with pink hair in the rain...
