Chapter 2: Team of Darkness
Naruto and Konan stood looking at the creature. It had cold purple iris's which gave it an unnerving stare. Konan walked over to it and said,
"Yahiko is that you?" The creature just looked around, a blank look on it's face. Nagato walked up to his creation and asked,
"Do you know what your name is? Do you know who we are?" The creature slowly shook it's head no. Nagato was disappointed, while Konan began to shed a few tears. Naruto had no idea what was going on so he decided to ask,
"Okay what it is going on here? Why are you talking to that thing like you know it?" Konan turned to her adoptive nephew and replied,
"Do you remember those stories I used to tell you about when we were trained by Jiraiya of the Sannin?" Naruto nodded and said,
"Yeah, you said he trained you, Uncle Nagato, and someone named...Yahiko." Realization soon hit the young vampire. Konan had told him stories of her and Nagato's time with the Toad Sage, and how they had lost their friend Yahiko after Jiraiya had to leave them. They didn't take it very well as Yahiko was like a brother to them both, so Nagato decided to attempt to bring him back by finding a jutsu that could revive someone. When that venture failed he turned to science, becoming a medical genius even greater than Tsunade Senju herself. After years of failures, he would have lost his mind if it wasn't for Konan and later Naruto. But this time was different, he had proved he could reanimate dead tissue! Unfortunately, it seemed Yahiko's mind didn't survive the years.
"It seems as though the years have taken a toll on his brain. I'm afraid it will take sometime before his mind is back to it's original state." Nagato said analytically . Konan nodded and headed upstairs, as Naruto began to study the creature. It didn't seem to be very intelligent, but it had a power inside it that wasn't chakra which intrigued the vampire greatly.
"Uncle Nagato, what did you do to animate this thing? I'm not sensing any chakra in him, but there's an energy coursing throughout his body." Naruto asked as he circled the creature. Nagato replied,
"I used the lightning that I had saved from this weeks thunderstorms. I believed the gathered electrical forces would be enough to animate the body and, as you can see, I was correct." Naruto nodded as he continued to look the monster over.
"So what are you gonna do with him in the meantime?" Naruto asked as he walked over to his uncle, who was now tinkering with something on his workbench. Nagato turned around, now holding what looked like two lightning rods.
"Well, first I'm going to install these so he can draw in natural electrical currents to make sure he doesn't run out of power." Nagato said as he attached the three foot long rods inside the creatures shoulder blades.
"Now I'm going to be going over somethings to make sure he's running smoothly, which could take a while so why don't you head on up to bed?" The red headed scientist said as he walked Naruto out of the lab and shut the door. Naruto simply shrugged and headed to his room. Naruto's room was actually in the basement of the castle, about 20 feet under Nagato's lab. Due to his easily burned skin, Naruto chose the room with the least chance of getting hit with sunlight. Naruto put on his blood red pajamas and climbed into his canopy bed.
Iruka came into the classroom with a somber look on his face. Today was Graduation Day, a day he was normally happy on due to seeing many of his student hopefully go onto becoming ninja, but today he was depressed. As he placed the test sheets on his desk he turned his attention to the class and, after yelling at them to quiet down, said,
"I'm sorry to inform you, but your classmate, Sakura Haruno, was found dead this morning. Her parents where also found dead in their backyard." This caught everyone's attention, and rightfully shock them. Well everyone that is except a certain blond vampire who sat with a slight smirk.
"What happened sensei?" One Ino Yamanaka asked. Ino was once Sakura's best friend and, despite how far they had drifted apart, was greatly saddened by the news of her passing.
"Nothing has been verified yet. All that is known is that all three victims were completely drained of their chakra." Iruka said in a steady tone. Everyone in the class were frightened now. They had never heard of someone dying from being drained of chakra. Sure they knew that it was possible to die from chakra exhaustion, but that hardly ever happened and it was a well known fact Sakura's parents weren't ninja so exhaustion wasn't possible.
"I know that you're all saddened by the death of your classmate, but it could very well happen in the field. Remember that. So let's get started." Iruka said as he began to pass out the test sheets.
Naruto had passed the test with phenomenal scores, much to everyone's surprise. While many of the parents of his classmates had showed up to congratulate their children, Naruto didn't see his Uncle Nagato anywhere. He sighed as he saw Konan come, an apologetic look on her face. Naruto loved Konan dearly, and the feeling was returned, but he wished that his only blood relative would show him a little more attention. Naruto sighed as Konan walked with him to his favorite ramen stand. Sure Naruto didn't actually eat that much since for him chakra was better than food, but he just couldn't resist ramen. He mainly got it on special occasions like his birthday or on holidays, and today was a very special occasion for him. Naruto and Konan ate in silence, but not an uncomfortable one. After they were done, they headed back to the castle. Once inside, Naruto could hear Nagato working in his lab with his enhanced hearing and sighed. Konan put her arm around him, an action he returned. The young vampire went down to his room and got some rest.
The blond vampire walked into his homeroom. He walked pass several jonin, as he went to his usual seat at the back and closed his eyes as he leaned back, waiting for his name to be called.
"Alright everyone, these are the teams for this year. When I call your names, report to your jonin sensei." Iruka said as he began to read off the teams. (A/N: Skipping everyone else but Team 7).
"Team 7 will be Kiba Inuzuka, Sasuke Uchiha, and Naruto Uzumaki." Naruto opened his eyes and sat up, as he listened for the name of his sensei.
"Your sensei will be..." Iruka managed to get out before the door flew open as a man ran in. The person wore a blue, long-sleeved, button up shirt, brown pants, black boots, and had a metal gauntlet on his right hand. He also wore the standard jonin flak-jacket, but with some kind of leather harness which held a chainsaw and what looked like a shotgun on his back. He also had a hatchet dangling off a leather strap on his hip. But what really caught Naruto's attention was the fact that he had bright orange hair, along with a few small scars on his face. Iruka looked at the man as he cleared his throat and turned to the class as he said,
"Now that he's here, Team 7's sensei will be Ichigo Kurosaki." The man now identified as Ichigo began to head out the door as he said,
"Alright ya little screwheads, follow me." Naruto, Kiba, and Sasuka growled a little at being called screwheads as they followed the man.
PLEASE REVIEW! Also I do not own Ichigo Kurosaki. BTW can you guess which horror icon Ichigo is based on? I'll give you a hint, he's a king and you need to hail to him ya babies!
