Chapter 21: The rise of the white Tigress
The sun rose and its light then covered Naruto's face. Naruto began to wake up and stretched his arms out and yawned. He had the best dream ever. He was becoming Hokage and behind him was his family. There, was his beautiful wife Sakura Haruno and her twins by her side. What Naruto loved the most was at the end where Sakura had whispered in his ear, "We'll make our own kids tonight." Naruto blushed at the remembrance of the dream and then looked at the sleeping kounichi. He grinned at her and decided to let her be. He then got up from his chair and walked out of the room. Naruto had to do his daily routines first then he would come back and talk to Sakura. He knew that she deserves to explain herself about that day and what she really deserves was an apology from him. The daily routine was this; eat ramen with Ryu for breakfast, train with Ryu until twelve. Then pick up Kiara from the hospital and eat some lunch. Although, for today it was after training he and Ryu would pick up lunch and bring it to the hospital so they could also eat with Sakura-Chan.
The morning went by quickly for Naruto and it was now the afternoon. He and Ryu were at the food stand when a demon ran up to them and handed them a message. Ryu took the scroll and they both looked at each other in confusion. Ryu opened the message and read it aloud, "Ryu and Naruto report to the Lord Kyubbi's palace for an immediate meeting." Both of the teens groaned and sighed at the message, but they knew it was important. They left their lunch at the stand and dashed towards the Kyubbi's palace. When the two entered Kiara and Kyubbi were already sitting down, waiting patiently for them. They sat down next to them and looked at the Kyubbi attentively. The Kyubbi closed his eyes and sighed. Then opened his eyes with full concern and said, "I believe that the village will be in danger soon. Dr. Netto is close and I have a feeling that he will get Ai out of the scroll sooner than we would all expect." They all nodded in agreement and began to think of a way to save the village. Then the subject of Sakura came up. They knew all too well that she would want to help and was dying to get out of the hospital bed.
Naruto then stood up and shouted, "We need Sakura-Chan out of here! She is still in such weak condition. I say it would be better if one of us bring her back to the leaf village, so Sasuke-teme can take care of her." Ryu nodded with in agreement, as did Kiara, but the last part bugged her. For these past days she had been trying so hard not to tell Naruto about the truth about the twins, but he continues to say things like this. So Sasuke can take care of her… Ryu then stood up and offered to take Sakura home. Naruto nodded and said, "Thank you Ryu. I appreciate it a lot and so will Sasuke-teme. If he finds out something had happened to the mother of his kids under my watch, he will seek out and kill me…again." That did it Kiara had enough and she just blurted out, "They are not Sasuke's kids!"
"Kiara!" Ryu shouted angrily and once he did Kiara covered her mouth. Naruto looked at them both and asked, "What did you say Kiara?" Kiara then placed her hand down and closed her eyes whispering, "They are not Sasuke's children. They are yours." Naruto then looked at Ryu and all Ryu did was nod. His world had just stopped. They were his kids all along?
"She is right kid, they are defiantly your kids," The Kyubbi said as he as well nodded his head. Naruto looked at him wondering how he would know and the Kyubbi continued, "When we were meditating, you were thinking about Sakura in that heart surgery. She had told you that the reason was because of genetics. Well she was right about it; it was because of my demon chakra. That is why she was in that state. If the demon chakra was successfully into the female's body that then means that they have become pregnant. Demons and human can actually mate, but when they do the demon's chakra will enter their body and that chakra will then burn all of their blood away. The female then dies along with the child inside. Lucky, for her people were able to give her their blood so she could stay alive." Naruto was frozen in shock. Since the Kyubbi was in him at the time when he and Sakura made love, his chakra must have been flowing out of him. Sakura gave birth to twins, HIS twins! He then went up to Kiara and asked, "Is there a girl?" she nods, "Is her name Sasunai?" Her steel eyes widen and nodded once again.
"How did you know?"
"We were bored on day and we asked each other what we would name our children. I then told her that if I had a child with her I would name our daughter Sasunai. I then made her promise to name her daughter that if she was mine." Kiara's eyes then soften in awe. Naruto was smiling at them happily filled with love and relief. Then a thought had popped in his head and he shouted, "I must go see Sakura-Chan and tell her I still love her!" Ryu then placed his hand on Naruto's shoulder and said, "We will all go." Kiara nodded as well and Naruto smiled once again and said, "Ok." They all sprinted through the hospital's door and barged into Sakura's room. Once they did they all gasped in unison. Sakura Haruno was gone. Everyone was looking around trying to find some clues or hints that would lead to where she could have gone. Kiara then noticed that the windows had been wide open and something caught her nose. There was this certain odor that seemed so familiar, like oil and sweat. Then it all made sense to her and she began to shake in fear.
"Oh God… Oh God…" she repeated over and over as she tried to find something to keep her stable. Ryu then rushed to her side and asked her what was wrong. Kiara held tight to Ryu's torso and replied with a shaky voice, "My father wrote that book everyone is a demon so people can take the quiz and find out what demon are they, that way he will find out who is the human. My father got her. She is the human. I remember her telling me that she took the test and her answer was unknown. That unknown was Ai." Ryu and Naruto stiffen once she told them. The entire sky soon began to darken into a heavy shade of gray and thunder starts to clash. Naruto swore at the horrible timing. He needed to get Sakura away from Dr. Netto's grasp. Soon lightning hit the tallest mountain near the village and Kiara knew that, that was exactly where they would be. The trio rushed towards the mountain and all of a sudden Naruto began to feel more powerful than before. There was a great amount of chakra rushing through his entire body. He smirked and thought in his head, you want to join the fight as well Kyubbi?
You are going to need my help this time kid. If Ai and Sakura do fuse each other's souls the stronger soul will be the controller. Sakura's mind will lost in the back of both their minds. This caused Naruto to speed up more. What would happen if her mind will never return? He can't let the souls fuse together. The trio soon arrived to the top of the mountain; there lied a large abandoned building. Ryu whispered to both Kiara and Naruto as they silently tip-toed towards the building, "This building used to be an old library of the demon village's secrets. Only the ruler of the village was able to see it of course, but then one demon had snuck into the library and told them the biggest secret off all, so they filled every secret into a scroll somewhere hidden. No one knows where it is except for the ruler and the ones before him." A thunderous laugh filled the entire sky and they all stood still. Both Naruto and Ryu looked at Kiara and all she could do was shake her head in embarrassment. They then walked into the building and found Dr. Netto fiddling with his machine as Sakura was lying down on a table.
"Now, my dear Sakura it is almost ready for fusion are you ready?" He asked in a most malicious tone. Sakura just sighed and nodded her head. Thunder clashed again and a lightning bolt struck near the trio. They all jumped away from the bolt and accidently landed where Dr. Netto and Sakura were. Sakura's emerald eyes widen and exclaimed, "What are you guys doing here?" Before Naruto could answer to his true love Dr. Netto laughed hysterically and cried out, "You are too late prince charming! This damsel in distress is all mine!" With that he pulled the lever and chakra began to flow around the machine as he began to create hand signs. The scroll was now open and it began to glow a pure white. Something was coming out of the scroll, something deformed. It then came out of the scroll and entered Sakura's body. At that moment Sakura began to scream in pain. She as well began to glow that same shade of white and continued to scream.
"Sakura-Chan!" Naruto yelled as he ran to her side. The screaming had then stopped and Sakura's head hung down unconscious. Dr. Netto laughed in excitement and cried out, "Yes, she has successfully entered into her body!" He sprinted to the machine and turned it off, which caused Sakura to awake. She then got up from the table and staggered next to Dr. Netto. Her eyes were a different color they were a see through green. Dr. Netto continued to laugh and he then said, "Ai my dear please come out and show us your true form." Sakura's body began to morph and transformed into this large glowing white demon. She about the same size as the Kyubbi himself, but she looked exactly like how a white tigress would look like. Naruto stepped close to her and said, "Sakura-Chan it's me Naruto. Please you have to listen to me." She then growled at him and she chakra surged through her body wildly.
"Kyubbi, you and I have some unfinished business to take care of!" she roared as she took into an offensive stance.
