Chapter 7: Appearance and a past that cries?
Narutos and Kenjis fight was getting hectic. Kenji was getting really frustrated at this and thought that the fight had dragged on long enough. He sent over the edge of anger when he felt a kick to his side from Naruto and went flying into a nearby tree. Naruto glared at the man. 'shit, I really need to finish this, I have been gone far to long from Konohamaru ad Moegi…' He felt a chain wrap around his left leg and was dragged to the ground. Kenji was staring at him sadistically; "finally boy… are you ready to face your death?" He threw the other edge of his chain straight at Narutos face but he escaped it. Barely.
Naruto narrowed his eyes. "no, not really."
"hmph, too bad cuz you will die right here and right now!" He said as he swung the chain towards him again. He was ready this time and escaped the chain once more. Not barely this time, he had read the movements and evaded whit pure skill.
Naruto raised his free leg and kicked the man hard in his stomach, this made him bend over and loose his chakra control for a moment realizing the chain around Naruto. That was all he needed, he sprung to his feet and was instantly seconds away. "You are though boy, you really are". Naruto was to concentrated to hear his voice though. "but we will end it now as I said." He made a signaling sign to his comrades and they jumped down from the trees landing on each side of Kenji. This made Naruto snap out of his tactic-planning. "hah! Finally decided to let your friends join the fun, huh?" Kenji was pissed at this. He didn't like being underestimated. 'This boy may be able to stand me alone, but all three of us together is something not even he can handle.' Kenji muttered to himself.
Naruto took his distance but Kenji knew exactly was he was thinking. "Guarding yourself from my chain, huh?" He chuckled. "Sorry boy, but I can do more than wind recomposing."
"Earth Element, length" he mumbled and his chain stretched and whit his wind element he stirred it towards Naruto. The other two was moving whit amazing speed up to each side of naruto but before they could act the chain from Kenji was wrapped around Narutos body. He fell to the forest floor. Mobile. "dammit!" he growled. "see… I could defeat you myself without much trouble." Kanji said confident.
'ha, the hell he did, the other two worked as decoys, if he had faced me head on whit that attack it would never had worked, it's too obvious.' Naruto didn't say it out loud though since he was in no position where he could afford these guys getting angry. It could very well cost him his life.
"shit I got to hurry! They could be there already, I cannot miss this chance!" Saeko said high to himself. "I will never forgive them, and never ever let them do that to another human being…it's just too cruel" He was happy no one was around as he traveled towards naruto since he wasn't the kind to show his emotions openly. What would they say if they saw him now. Crying.
"Should I finish him of Kenji?" Miki asked
"yeah, whatever" Kenji replied as he rooted in Narutos backpack looking for their scroll.
"Then I shall" Miki's eyes were filled whit amusement. 'dammit, am I really going to end up dead here?'
Miki placed his Kunai on Narutos throat ready to slit it. "Goodbye boy."
Naruto closed his eyes ready for death to overpower him. He felt the cold metal leave his throat and he heard a large bang thereupon. He flew his eye open to see who his savior was. He almost wished he had died when he saw who it was. "I can't let you kill Naruto-kun, even though I would enjoy the show" he stated. "but we need him alive but unfortunately for you I can't say the same for you." Within moments the forest floor was soaked whit blood. Naruto saw the guys he had struggled so hard against slaughtered in mere seconds, this clearly showed the difference between him and his newly arrived opponent.
Naruto tried to stand up to make a run for it. He wouldn't even be able to stand a chance in this weakened state. But he soon realized that he was still mobilized by kanji's chain. "Dammit" he whispered to himself. He felt a hard kick on his side and was rolled over to his back by itachi's foot. "Hello Naruto-kun". Naruto glared at the man. "I'll have you come whit us now" He said as unemotional as ever. "The hell you are!" he screamed back trying to fight his bonds. He felt really weak.
"Well Naruto-kun… I thought you felt more for your friends than that".
Narutos eyes widened and his whole body stilled.
"What…What are you talking about, what have you done to them!?" He yelled desperate. He couldn't take it if something had happened to them on his account. "Oh, nothing… yet. But if you struggle it certainly will… you know how strong Akatsuki are. We could easily kill off your friends" He said smirking.
Narutos eyes were as wide as the full moon above him now. "So what will you do now Naruto-kun?"
Naruto glared at him but closed his eyes soon and sighed. "Well, I'll have to face my death sometime, don't I?" 'I'd rather do it rescuing my friends at the same time' he added to himself.
Itachi was slightly surprised at his answer but nothing more. "Good." He said as he dragged up Naruto by the hair although it seems I won't be leaving quietly whit you as I had planned he said and Naruto felt again a kunai pressed against his throat.
Narutos eyes widened as e saw who stood before them. "you!"
"Akatsuki" Saeko growled. "I will have my revenge"
"ah, it's you" Itachi said in recognition.
Naruto was surprised that they seemed to know each other but he quickly tossed those feelings away when he felt itachi's kunai pressed harder against his throat. He gasped at the pain as the cut was deep enough to draw blood. But Naruto wasn't stupid, he knew Itachi wouldn't kill him. They needed him alive after all. "will you retreat quietly or do you whish to se another Jinchuuriki tortured in front of your eyes?" Itachi said emotionless as he pulled harder in my hair and digging his nails in my head. "huh?, do you?" Saeko narrowed his eyes "I do not. But I wont retreat either… let him go now!" Naruto didn't understand why he cared at all. "AHHHHH-" naruto screamed as Itachi stabbed a kunai in the side of his body. "retreat now, Saeko…"
'Saeko, is that his name…?' naruto thought. "… or do you whish to see this boy here suffer the same faith as your dear uncle Roushi." 'what is he talking about' naruto said to himself "the jinchuuriki of the Yonbi." "what?!" Naruto threw out of himself causing Itachi to twist the kunai in his side to silence him.
"I'll say it once more. Retreat."
"I will not" he said repeated
'I can't afford to draw to much attention to myself here. And I definitely will if I were to fight this guy, he's far too strong. He was trained by the Yonbi jinchuuriki after all'
"Naruto-kun… I hope you remember our little chat from earlier… I will let you go for now, but next time we meet I hope you have the same resolve as now or they won't be on this side for much longer" He smirked amused at the fear in the young leaf ninjas eyes. Itachi let go of Naruto and he fell to the ground unable to stand due to damage in his left side. "we'll meet soon again, Naruto-kun, Saeko." He kicked Naruto on his bleeding side causing him to scream out in agony. "bastard, Stay here!" Saeko yelled after Itachi but he was already gone. "dammit!" He ran over to Naruto.
"so your name is Saeko, huh? I was so annoyed I couldn't figure you out. But I can now… thank you for helping me."
"Uh, yeah sure" We need to get you to a hospital
"no, the Kyuubi chakra will fix it in no time. I need to get back to my team, they must be worried sick."
'uhu, they must seeing the way I left them' Saeko thought feeling a bit guilty.
"yeah, let's head back and then we can figure out what to do from there. We need to tend to your injuries as well." Saeko said
"…yeah" Naruto looked around him, these ninja was killed because of him. Not willingly but still. It was his fault, that hurt more than any physical wound ever could even though they were his enemies… how would it feel if they killed my friends like this. No hesitation and in mere seconds. Naruto didn't even want to think about it.
