Chapter 4: Where's help?

Naruto awoke the next morning feeling exhausted. Never throughout the missions has he ever felt this wiped out before. He carefully sat up in bed not wanting to trigger the pain incase he moves so fast. Sitting there making sure any trace did come he slowly swung his legs over the bed and stood up to go to the bathroom to take a shower. Once inside he went to the shower and turned it on. He adjusted the temp and turned on the showerhead well that was done he began to removed his clothes. Fully nakey he went inside the shower. Standing there and letting the water run down his body feeling his muscles began to relax and coming back to life he couldn't stop but think how this whole thing was just weird. All of a sudden he starts having these pains like its burning his insides. He really isn't like this at all. He needs to talk to Tsunade-baachan about this before its too late.

"Maybe its just a growth spurt." Kyubbi said.

"I don't think I will hurt just to grow a few inches Kyubbi." He gritted through his teeth. He hated when Kyubbi made fun of his height. Naruto has grown but not tall enough to surpass the teme and he is barely Sakura's height. He felt so short when he was around the rest of the guys because he was the shortest of them all. And Kyubbi making a funny at a moment like this. Hell! He could be dying and here he is making fun of his height.

"Hey am just saying. Just trying to lighten things up. Besides if it was life threatening I would have known." Kyubbi said as a matter of fact tone.

"Well then why don't you find out the reason why this is happening! I mean you are inside my body you can scan around and see whats going on!" Naruto was getting irritated of this.

"I would if you weren't so busy in getting ready to go see Iruka get that operation." He said it so cocky.

"Oh shit!" Was all Naruto can say and with that he hurried and washed himself. Getting out of the shower with a towel rapped around his waist he went to his room and grabbed clothes to put on. Though we all know what he got. His famous orange jumpsuit but now the navy parts of his suit were black. Running around like a chicken had his head cut off he stopped to see what time it was. He was going to kill that fox! Right there on his clock it strikes 7:30. Naruto's right eyebrow twitched from annoyance. He sighed knowing that he cant do anything to get the fox back. He laid back down and thought about Sasuke and his woman hunt yesterday. He really didn't want to face him knowing what he did yesterday. Naruto felt so betrayed and used. He thought on what he was going to do. Laying there he tried to come up with something to get rid of his feelings for Sasuke he thought maybe if he was mean to him well not really mean just rude and tried to ignore him he might start hating him and with that he can hate him back as well. Thinking that was a good plan he nodded off to sleep. Later Naruto woke up at 9:30. He stretched all his cramped muscles and let out a big yawn. Surprisingly he felt better. Looking back at his clock he thought maybe he should get going.

"Well I will get there on time but man it is going to be boring as hell. I should take something to keep me entertained." He went over to his closet and in there he has a little safe where he hides things that he doesn't want Sasuke to know. Putting in the combination he opened it and got out a book. It was one of his advance jutsu's books the one that you have to be at a special level to do this kind of stuff. Happy on how to keep himself occupied he pocketed it and went to his balcony doors opened it and closed the doors. He made his way jumping through rooftops to get to the hospital. No doubt that Tsunade was behind this whole operation he knew he must talk to her and ran faster to get there.

Upon arriving he saw that he was a little late and that Iruka was already in surgery. Going to the lobby he found his team there.

"Naruto I thought you might have forgotten about Iruka's operation." Kakashi told him. Though through that false exterior you can see Kakashi was mad. Naruto didn't care if he was he felt no reason to explain why he was late. He shrugged his shoulders and made his way to one chairs. Kakashi was surprised on how Naruto just shooked off his question like that but left it for now. Half an hour pasted and Kakashi was sitting in one of the chairs reading his special book, Sakura sat two chairs down from him and was a nervous wreck, and Sasuke was his cool self leaning on the wall like nothing. Naruto sat on the other side of the room across form Kakashi and Sakura he has been sitting there just zoning out on how to approach Tsunade after this was all over. Bored of thinking he got out his own special book but not as special as Kakashi's and started reading. Sasuke heard Naruto moving and saw him pull out a book intrigued about what book Naruto was reading he read the cover and arched his eyebrow. 'Since when does the dobe read anything that advanced?' He pushed himself off the wall and made his way next to the chair next to Naruto.

"Isnt that a little too advance for you to be reading. Why don't you just put it away before you hurt your brain trying to figure the whole on what its talking about." He smirked at his insult to the blond and waited to see what reply he will come up. Kakashi over heard Sasuke on what he just told Naruto and looked to see what Naruto was reading. He was shocked to see what Naruto was reading and was interested as well on why he was reading a high-leveled jutsu book. So he too waited to what Naruto would say on the reason to read the book. But what he heard next from the blond made him almost choke on his salvia.

"Why don't you go fuck yourself Sasuke and a leave me the fuck alone." He snarled at Sasuke. Sasuke was shocked. That was the first time Naruto ever talk to him like that. Not liking the way the blond responded he told started to open his mouth but was cut off by the blond.

"Don't bother to waste your spit on unnecessary words. I need fresh air." Naruto stood up and left.

Everyone in the room paled on how Naruto just came out and just said that. Kakashi just tried to figure out what happened as did the two other members of team seven. But all came up with the same answer maybe the blond was just nervous for Iruka. With that thought and done they went back in peace and did what they were doing.

Naruto was on roof of the hospital just laying there and watching the clouds go by. He tried to be mean to Sasuke trying to drive the brunette away. He sighed and he felt his body relax on the cool breeze. He stayed up there until he it was time to check on Iruka from the surgery. Making his way back in he found that team seven were no longer at the lobby. A nurse saw him and asked him if he was with the people that were in there he nodded and told him that they went to see the patient in room 367. He said his thanks and looked for the room 367. Once he has found it he was just there staring at it hoping it can open by itself but no luck. He tried taking deep breaths to calm himself down and expect for the worst for his actions. He opened the door and saw Sasuke's and Sakura's back faciong him and then he saw Tsunade on one side of Iruka the other Kakashi hold his, her hand. Upon hearing my entering they all turned to face me. That's when I saw Iruka he I mean she looked so I don't know not a woman maybe it must be the hair. Iruka was now slimed as a woman's petite figure like an hourglass shape. A famine figure with boobs to fill them out it looked liked she was a size 'D' cup. And I already see Kakashi looking down her hospital gown. That perv. I noticed that everyone was waiting for me to do something maybe it was because they were expecting me to react to Iruka's change but what can I do. Here is the person I have known my whole life as a guy and now in just 2 hours he's a she. But not matter what Iruka is Iruka. I walked towards the bed shutting the door behind. I was at his side next to Tsunade. Better off on her side than at Kakashi's.

"Hey there Iruka how you feeling?" I smiled at him.

He seemed to relax after that, he smiled too and said, "Am good but tired. Even though I was put to sleep I feel like I haven't slept at all." He lend bakk and closed his eyes but put on a smile just to let us know he was ok.

"That's good to hear. Well I hope you recover fast." To tell the truth Naruto was feeling awkward at the moment he had the attention on him. Tsunade sensing this she turned to everyone to let them know she was about to speak.

"Alright you guys need to leave Iruka needs a lot of rest after this big change on his body you can stay Kakashi but the rest need to leave. And you Iruka you will be able to leave tomorrow afternoon so rest up till then." With that said she headed to the door and left. Naruto took that as to run like a mad man and go. He said his goodbyes and left but he wasn't alone Sasuke and Sakura were behind him. Walking up a little more ahead of him he noticed that they did too. He knew they wanted to question him but he didn't feel like talking so he rounded a corner and used the teleportation jutsu and got out of there. Once Sasuke and Sakura saw him turn the corner and didn't see him they thought he made a run. Truth be told no one knew that Naruto knew that jutsu. So they shrugged and parted their ways and went home. Saskura to study and Sasuke to get ready for his two dates today.

Naruto spent his whole day on the monument and stayed up there till it was late. He went home and noticed Sasuke was home probably asleep. He wanted to know what happened on his date but he wouldn't ask he doesn't want to feel more heart broken than he already does. He went upstairs and got ready for bed and went to sleep.

The next morning he woke up early and went to the flower shop to get Iruka some flowers to be delivered to his house he really didn't want to go knowing a party was going to be thrown for him for his surgery. So he just thought the least he can do is send him flowers and not only that he over heard since Iruka was recovering for two weeks Kakashi is going to take two weeks off to help him and that meant so does the rest of team seven. So he decided to train as hard as he could those two weeks the way he would want and practice on those jutsus he's been reading on. And that's what happened.

…………………….Time jump after two weeks…………………

After Iruka was healed it was time for team seven to train but they will only train for two days since the festival for the defeat of Kyubbi was coming up they will have no missions and that meant Naruto's birthday was in three days. Though he should no excitement knowing he would spend it up on the mountain training more.

Today was just training and Kakashi decided to end it early saying that he wanted to go home and be with Iruka and with that said he left. Sakura said she is going to go shop for a kimono for the festival and Sasuke had to get ready for another date and that left Naruto alone again. It wasn't much a difference since it has been like that these past two weeks. Everyone was busy Sasuke with is dates, Sakura doing well what Sakura does, Iruka and Kakashi always together. He never went back to visit Iruka knowing that he wasn't welcome since he knew how Kakashi felt about him so he kept his distance. So with no one to talk to and the other teams have been on missions doing double time since they had two weeks off and wont be back till tonight that left him on option. Hanging out on Hokage Monument.

He laid there just thinking how he felt so alone and everyone was off doing their thing well he just stood there not moving or moving forward. He sighed and looked up at the stars and smiled. Who knew something so far away can be beautiful but it will take an eternity to reach it. Then all of a sudden the surge of pain he has experience two weeks ago ruined Naruto's beautiful moment. He never went to Tsunade to talk to her since it didn't happened again he thought maybe what Kyubbi said was true and it was just growing pains. But now he wasn't too sure anymore the pain has returned but it was ten times worst then the last one he experience. He knew he was in trouble and he needed to seek out help.

He ran towards the village in hopes to find anyone to help him. He past a restaurant and saw Sasuke feeling relieved that he can get help he burst in there and went to Sasuke.

"SASUKE! SASUKE! I REALLY NE-!!" but was cut off by Sasuke.

"DOBE! Cant you see am busy! I don't have time for you so go away and bug someone else!" Wow that was a slap in the face. He was going to attempt to talk to him again but that glare told him otherwise.

"Sorry to have bothered" Naruto said gritted his teeth from the pain he was feeling. So he said his apologies and left. Later he ran into Sakura and she too was too busy to help him.

"LISTEN NARUTO I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR I STILL NEED TO SHOP AND GET READY FOR THE FESTIVAL UNLIKE YOU I DO CARE ON HOW I LOOK LIKE IN PUBLIC! NOW LEAVE ME ALONE!" She turned around and left Naruto alone in pain.

Naruto ran to another person who knew he can always count on and will never turn his or her back on him. He made his way to Iruka's house and pound on it like there was no tomorrow which in Naruto's case it really was. Finally someone opened the door and there stood Iruka.

"Naruto its you! Whats wrong you look all sweaty is everything ok?" She was about to feel Naruto's temperature but was stopped by feeling a hand on her torso.

"Iruka come on I want to play! Ple-Oh Naruto its you." "Listen Kakshi how about later I need to talk to Naruto." "But I want to play right now!" Kakashi whined and started to nibble on Iruka's earlobe. Iruka started to moan from the inside of her throat. Not able to take it no more he turned to Naruto and said the unimaginable that broke all hopes that Naruto held.

"Sorry Naruto. As you can see am quite busy come back later." She then closed the door to Naruto's face. Naruto started to panic he needed help so he ran to the last person that he can think of, Tsunade. Running with the strength he still had he ran to her office and burst through the doors.

"Tsunade-baachan! Please I ne-!" but yet again Naruto was cut off.

"Listen brat I don't have time for you cant you see I am buried alive with this mounts of paper work and not only that I have to prepare for the festival that is coming up. Just go away and bother someone else with your idiotic problem." She shooed him away by waving her hand as a gesture to go away and he did.As he walked down the corridors he came across the other teams he knows From Neji to everyone he knew to even Akamaru, Kiba's dog. He asked for help but all stopped him and told him they were too tired to hear his childish whining and that they were going to home to rest. Even Hinata turned her back on him. So he went off yet again.

Wandering aimlessly he found himself deep in the middle of the forest. He was ready to collapse not baring the pain anymore. But to his luck the pain did not subside but came more and more in waves but growing fiercer and vicious. He felt his insides burning churning like a mixture was going on. All of a sudden he could see Kyubbi's chakra leaking out and his as well they were mixing and were clashing with each other. Every time they clashed Naruto's body took a hit and was now laying on the ground twisting in agony. He prayed to all the gods out there to make this stop but it didn't. Now screaming form pain the chakra clashing were more quicker and faster. With the little strength he had left he screamed with all he got until the full force of chakra swallowed his whole body surrounding him like a barrier. Finally the chakra dimming down he layed there panting so hard he felt like a fish gasping for air.

He told himself with the little hope he still held on that maybe just maybe some ANBU squad would have seen or people would have felt that surge of chakra. So he waited for anyone, anyone even a sound nin to help him. He waited what seemed for him to be like hours but no one came.

'So no one came for me. No one bothered to help me. Now I see what true friends I really have'

With that said darkness over took him.
