NOW ON WITH THE CHAPTER!
Tears continuously fell from the blue eyes that searched for his love in the dark depths of trees. Perhaps he would come back, but when he tried to voice that thought the noises from the forest turned up, becoming almost deafening. He knew that Sakura and Kakashi were still there, watching him, but he didn't care.
He finally managed to stand up, he decided to go after him, he would bring him back. He only managed to take one small step before Kakashi was there, grabbing his arm. The blond let out a feral snarl and attacked the masked man, there was no way he was letting Sasuke get away from him. The swift jab caught Kakashi off guard and he released his arm, taking a step back in order to get free he made one of the hand signs and called forth fifteen clones that were solid unlike many others and he took flight.
He jumped into the nearest tree and ran after Sasuke, leaving his clones to distract Kakashi, however he had already dispatched the clones and he and Sakura quickly made their way to the Hokages office, where Tsunade was asleep over her desk. When they informed her of Sasukes defection and exit of the village she had a tantrum and with her chakra enhanced strength, threw her desk out of the window. She managed to order Shikamaru, Chouji, Lee, and Kiba to go after Naruto and help him.
Narutos vision was blurry as he sped forth through the trees after the raven, but little did he know that his love was locked into a barrel shaped casket and was being carried by the Sound Four, to Orochimaru. He wouldn't give up though, he would find Sasuke, but he was beginning to think that it wasn't the smartest thing going after him all alone. His prayers were answered in the form of his three friends. 'What are you guys doing here?"
Akamaru barked from atop Kibas head and wagged his tail half-heartedly. Kiba translated, "Tsunade sent us." Naruto cursed under his breath and followed his friend as he moved slightly to the side, changing course. Just as Naruto began to believe that they would remain unhindered in their journey they ran into someone. This someone was wearing the garb of the sound four, her red hair hung to mid shoulder blades and in her hands she had a flute poised to play.
Shikamaru stood and faced her, "troublesome, what is your name?"
"Tayuya, now prepare yourself." She pressed the flute from her lips and suddenly magic words sprung forth from the instrument. Suddenly three deformed and grotesque looking ogres appeared, ready to kill. The entire team became pale. They looked from one another unsure of who should stay back, Naruto wanted to be the one to save Sasuke, they needed Kibas sense of smell, Lee could come in handy with his taijutsu, and Chouji was a handy person to have when they were in need of strength, but Shikamaru was a genius and also a handy friend to have.
Eventually Shikamaru was the one to speak, "go, find Sasuke and bring him home." Shikamarus words made them Tayuya smile, and they all lurched forward once more speeding through the forest. Nauto looked back to take in Shikamarus form standing on the tree branch, His black ponytail bobbing as he spoke, and still he had that bored look plastered on his face. The blond turned back to what he was doing and silenly hoped that he would be able to see his friend again. Loud noises pervaded the air until a huge distance separated them from Shikamaru.
They thought they were in the clear, but yet again a person seemed to materialize out of nowhere. This time, however, they weren't as surprised as they were the first time. Creepy laughter fell from the persons lips as he looked at the group with a penetrating and insane gaze. "Who shall I, Ukon, get to fight?" They looked to each other telling each other that this person named Ukon was just plain out frightening.
Akamaru barked and leapt off of Kibas head and faced the man. "Well I guess Akamaru called this creeper for ourselves! Don't worry though, im sure the rest of you will get a chance to win glory for yourselves!" Naruto clapped his canine like friend on the shoulder and nodded to him.
"Good luck Kiba."
"Phshaaaa, man! I don't need luck I am just that awesome, ill beat this guys' ass and catch up with you in time to help you bring Sasuke back." Laughing at the dog boys antics, the remaining three took off in the direction that Kiba pointed.
Trees blurred into solid lines of green and brown as they traveled by at an incredibly fast rate. Without warning though they were tripped and fell down to the earth and a cage of impenetrable rock held them within its clutches. "Noooo!" Naruto screeched and started to pummel his fists against the wall, calling forth several clones to help in the hope they may be able to break free. When the rock showed no sign of giving in Naruto pulled back and slammed his back against it and slid down to the ground, letting a tear shed for their failed mission.
Lee spoke up, "don't worry Naruto-kun. Our youth will provide us with the answer to escape this cage!" Kidoumaru
And indeed it did, because Chouji ate his last chip in that minute and slowly but surely he began to go insane with hunger. His body began to inflate with his growing chakra and spin, before long he tunneled his way out of the cage with his odd technique. Naruto stood and watched his chubby friend as he glared at the person before them, his eyes alight with anger. "You made me run out of chips!"
"What are you going to do about it runt?" Chouji seemed to expand to the blond and Lee and then he was barreling toward the member of the sound four. Naruto and his friend took their leave just before Chouji was thrown back.
This time he and Lee were more cautious, not wanting to fall into another trap like before, but the further they got from Chouji and his opponent the less cautious they were. Soon enough they were traveling at a faster speed than before, trying to catch up to Sasuke.
Eventually the trees ran out and into a field of grass, they were nearing the end of the land of fire, if they reached The Valley of The End and didn't have him they would have to turn around and go back to the village. Naruto shook his head to get rid of that thought, there was no way he would turn back, no way he would leave Sasuke.
Suddenly he was forced to a halt because someone was standing in the middle of the field. Naruto had lost Lee a little way back and he knew that bushy brow would show up before long, but for now he had to deal with the person who stood right by a barrel shaped casket. Those blue eyes locked on it and wouldn't look away, he knew the raven was within it. He glanced at the person standing there, he had no weapons and he didn't seem fearsome in fact he seemed to be ill. He was too pale to be healthy and his hair was a silverfish blue. His eyes seemed to be glazed over and impassive. Naruto saw that he wasn't moving and took the chance to speak, "who are you?"
The man blinked once and tilted his head softly. "Me? My name is Kimimaru, and I am supposed to be bringing this casket to Orochimaru."
"Not on my watch!" Naruto made a simple hand sign, "multiple shadow clone technique!" Thousands of clones sprung forth from the area surrounding Kimimaru. He didn't even blink angering Naruto who controlled his clones to run after the sickly man.
Ten feet from him, his bones protruded from his body all over causing him to look like a morphed porcupine as the clones all puffed away with every hole those needle bones made. The man moved at a blinding speed ripping a bone from his arm as he did so. Naruto pulled out some kunai, tossed them in the direction of the man and leapt away running as fast as he could. When he felt he was far enough away he switched back trying to get behind Kimimaru, who to the blonds dismay sensed his presence behind him and turned around. He slashed downright with his sword made of bone and Naruto narrowly avoided; he returned the attack with a kick. He wound up having to stop his kick mid destination and flip backward to avoid another slash from the sword. Naruto slid back and glared at the person who was proving to be a difficult adversary to beat.
A purple light began to seep through the lid to the casket, catching the blonds attention. As he turned to look, Kimimaru turned and slashed catching him on his arm. Kimimaru twisted away from the whiskered boy and grabbed yet another bone protruding from his other arm, now he wielded two bone swords. Naruto took three huge jumps backward, trying to give himself some distance to nurse his arm. He glanced down and saw it wasn't really deep so he let it go and appraised his enemy.
He was obviously sick so he had nothing to lose, bony spikes protruded from his body threatening to poke holes in anyone who dared to get near. He stood confidently and was able to move quick enough to dodge anything Naruto would throw at him. The blond had no clue how to beat him, risking a glance he saw that the casket was shuddering and leaking more purple light. He had to get rid of his enemy and save the raven, but how.
He took a chance and called forth a clone and held out one hand, the other clone began to 'scratch' at the air that was slowly filling with chakra, causing it to pulsate and spin. Naruto took a small breath and began running to Kimimaru. The clone followed closely behind with several shuriken in its hand. As the shadow clone threw the weapons Naruto leapt and began to combine his Clone Spinning Head Drop taijutsu technique with his Rasengan ninjutsu technique. "Rasengan!" As I spun I came down hand first the spinning ball of chakra pointed at the mans' head.
Kimimaru looked up and dropped one of his swords, he reached up just as Naruto was to come down and grabbed the blonds wrist and tossed him to the side like a rag doll. Just as Kimimaru threw the blond he himself was knocked to the side by a powerful kick delivered by a green clothed body. While Kimimaru landed on his back and dug into the ground as he slid leaving a rut six inches deep as he went the blond was picking himself just in time to see the casket top go flying up and away.
Purple light spilled forth and Naruto was mesmerized as Sasuke climbed out. The raven turned to face the blond and then he saw it, the smirk and the flaring, writhing curse mark as it covered more of the ravens' body than ever before. His hair, slightly longer, hung in his eyes and swayed in the wind as he took off running to The Valley of The Ends. Naruto flashed a look to Lee who nodded, "go get him."
The blond needed no more confirmation and took off running after his beloved raven. His spikey hair flipped wildly in the wind as he neared his team mate, his love. The longer they traveled the more nervous Naruto became; his anxiety was eating away at the inner part of his lower abdomen. Suddenly though, Sasuke came to a screeching halt right above the waterfalls overlooking the valley, marking the end of his home. "Why?" Naruto didn't respond not sure what to say exactly. When Sasuke realized he was not going to answer his one word question he decided to lengthen it. "Why, do you still follow me?"
A single tear slid from the corner of Narutos eye, ''because, I love you." The raven snorted and turned to actually face the fox. The curse mark had formed and locked together making half of his face and body appear to be, purplish in color, his teeth had serrated, and as Naruto stared he saw it spread and one hand-like wind sprout from Sasukes back. That soft looking hair had grown even longer since he had burst forth from the casket, and its spires rose about two inches above where it had been not even a day ago. A smirk tugged at those plump lips that Naruto kissed.
Before Naruto knew what was happening Sasuke was moving his hands in several different hand movements at a blinding speed and then, "Fire realease, great fireball!" Naruto had to duck out of the way in order to doge the flames that were thrown at him, however he did not escape damage. Part of his left sleve was smoking and charred black from the chakra induced fire.
The fox took the chance to change course and turn inward to angle at Sasukes side, as he picked up speed he used his Kunai trip release that was on his forearm to slide three kunai into his hand. One by one he threw them, gaining the ravens attention as he moved to dodge. Taking the time he summoned five clones and they scattered by jumping lining up and then landing on all sides of Sasuke, surrounding him. The raven wasn't sure who to attack so he pulled out shuriken of his own and threw them at each person individually, they all managed to dodge but as they neared he began to use his famous Uchiha taijutsu, kicking each clone. They, being made from nothing but chakra, were slight slower than the real Naruto and were unable to avoid those powerful legs.
After Sasuke managed to find the real Naruto he began to rain kick after kick upon him, which Naruto, to the ravens own shock, deftly dodged and countered with blows of his own. Neither one of them gained ground as they battled hand to hand; all they managed to do was begin to exhaust one another. The pressure from their last blows managed to push them back from each other as they shoved and released. They both stood there slouched over breathing heavily.
Naruto was the one to break the stand still by biting one finger and smearing the blood on his hand as he made the hand signals, "Fire release, toad oil flame bullet!" A shot of oil spilt forth from his hand and gained speed, quickly catching fire as it did so. Sasukes eyes widened as he dove forward under the vire and rolled coming back up on his feet and hands, crouching like some sort of wolf. He lurched forward at the whiskered boy sending a light flow of chakra into his hand as he did so. Naruto knew he would use his strong fist and yet he still managed to land a solid blow, sending the blond flying back into the rock wall fifty feet below the ledge. His back slammed into the rock but Naruto took his time and began to control the flow of his own chakra in his hands and feet so he could balance.
Sasuke leapt down and landed on the water with a small splash and Naruto followed suit. The curse mark on the raven shuddered and began to cover more of Sasukes body. It didn't stop until his entire body was that purplish blue. Finally, another hand shaped wing sprouted from his back. When Sasuke spoke to the blond, his voice was deeper as well. "Go home Naruto, I have to do this."
The blond shook his head, "no. I won't let you go that easily Sasuke. If you expect me to just let you leave then you are wrong, if you want out of this valley then you will have to send me back to the village in a casket."
Sasuke shook his head in dismay, the blond boy was so stubborn, and he did not want to kill him, hell he didn't even want to fight him but if the raven had to fight the dobe he would. His heart called for revenge and it would have it, even if it was the last thing he ever did. He loved Naruto, he really did, even if he didn't know that until he was about to leave, but he still had to do what his heart called him to do, and that was kill his brother. If he could, he would return to Naruto, but first his heart yearned for his hands to be coated in Uchiha blood. "I won't go back."
"Then take me with you." Narutos blue eyes spoke of nothing but seriousness. His normally big grin was not on his face, but instead his eyes showed a raw determination that they had never shown before.
Sasuke was thrown for a loop; he had never even considered that, to take his beloved with him. He took a step back and looked onward in awe at the fox boy. He could, but he knew that it would kill Naruto inside, and that was one thing he didn't want. "I-I am sorry, but I can't do that to you. Please, just go home. Please, don't make me hurt you."
Naruto shook his head, sending several tears cascading into the river. Not thinking he began to use his trump card, he called a clone forth and held out his hand, quickly letting it build into the rasengan. After that he called up two thousand other clones using the technique from the forbidden scroll. They all jumped and began to beat down upon Sasuke one blow after another. They kept his attention as the real Naruto lurched forward and held his hand out screaming the name of the technique as he went. Sasuke noticed and called forth his own advanced technique, the chidori.
Both forces met equally and the resounding explosion sent them both flying into the air and skipping down the river like a skipping two stones. Sasuke was the first to stand and Naruto followed quickly. "Naruto, go home! You would never enjoy my new life. You don't love me that much Naruto, go back to Sakura, give her your love." Sasuke immediately regretted his words as Narutos incisors grew to insane lengths and his whiskers became more prominent. A red aura began to leak around him and a tail sprouted from his lower back.
"Do not, ever tell me I do not love you!" Naruto took off on all fours and began to slash and tear at Sasuke with his newly grown fangs and claws. It was all Sasuke could do to avoid those lethal weapons, but when he realized that he would be forced to his death over the end of the waterfall unless he fought back, he was downright terrified. He knew the nine tails would protect him from death, but he would have to knock out his blond if he was to make his escape. He began to fight back, using all he had he summoned another chidori and rushed at his blond, he weakened the impact but it did send the blond flying, but to his own chagrin he stood back up.
Sasuke worked his way behind Naruto and then decided to try one more thing. His lion combo, he tossed Naruto into the air after grabbing him by the ankle, he slid under him after leaping into the air. He begain to rain blow after blow upon his body and even as he delivered the last kick he saw the blonds eyes flit shut and the aura dissipate. Naruto went sailing under the water and Sasuke dove after him. Once he got his loved one he swap back to the shore on one side and laid him on the sandy rock. He let the curse mark dissipate back into the three pin pricks on his neck.
He sensed Kakashi before he saw him, yet he ignored his former sensei. Placing a kiss on Narutos head he picked him up once more. "Come out Kakashi, I know you are there." The silver haired man obliged and slid out from the small cavern appearing like a shadow on the walk ways of Konoha on a moonlit night. He handed Naruto over to Kakashi carefully and once more kissed the blond on his lips, savoring the flavor and the suppleness of those pink pillows. "Take care of him, please, just until I return."
"You know, if you ever return you will be viewed as a fugitive?" Kakashi lifted what appeared to be an eyebrow and pulled the blond closer to him.
"Yes, but I will return, for him." A single tear fell from Sasukes onyx black eyes.
"If you come back, and you hurt him again, I will kill you."
"Kakashi, I believe you, but help him realize his dream of becoming Hokage. Now I must go." Sasuke moved closer to Naruto and whispered into his ear, knowing he would hear him, and know what happened. "I will come back for you dobe, I promise," and with that he turned and left the Land of Fire, not knowing when he would return.
The silver haired man watched his old student take off, he believed Sasuke would return, but what he didn't know if he should tell Naruto of this encounter. "Hmmm, well this is quite interesting. Come one Naruto, let's get you home." With that said Kakashi turned and jumped back up to the main level of rock overhanging the valley and took off back to Konoha.
Oh. My. God. I am so proud of myself! So So So proud! Well I will be updating a lot until I get this story as well as my other story Narutos World and You Promised Forever up to seven chapters to match my other storys length, but after that I will slow down on updates because I can.
Anyway, review and let me know what you think! I worked hard on this and was up til' midnight last night just writing it! SO REVIEW AND TELL MEH IF YOU LIKED IT OR NOT!
Oh yea also, I know the battles weren't exact in the order, or how things went about them but I still got to the point I needed to get to, after all this is a story about Sasuke and Naruto, Not Shika, or Kiba (as much as I love him) or Lee, or Chouji, but because they are Narutos friends they will be making appearances!
Toodles for now my friends!
