Naruto Misbegotten
Past, Present, and Future
A beautiful girl was walking through the woods when she came upon a young boy passed out on the forest floor. Reaching out she shook him awake.
"Hey are you alright?" She asked as the boy opened his eyes and sat up with a yawn.
"Yeah I'm alright, what's up sis?" he asked the girl
"What are you doing out here, you'll catch your death of cold." She told him worriedly.
"Don't worry, I'm training." He said as he helped the girl pull weeds.
"Training?" The girl asked
"Are you some kind of ninja?" she asked
"Yeah, I'm going to be the strongest ninja around, so everyone will respect me." He declared.
"And who do you wish to protect?" She asked
"What?" He asked back
"Is there someone you wish to protect? I believe that when someone is protecting someone they care about, they will become as strong as the need to be." The girl explained, and for some strange reason Hinata's face passed through his mind.
"I had better be going." She said and got up to leave
"Oh and by the way, I'm a boy." He said leaving a stunned Naruto behind.
"Ok were heading out." Kakashi told Tsunami as he Minato and the others except Gaara and Naruto prepared to leave. It had been agreed between the sensei that Gaara would be at an extreme disadvantage against Zabuza's water jutsu and seeing as Naruto had worn himself to the bone training his participation was out of the question.
"Oh man, I can't believe they left without me!" Naruto shouted as he ran out the door. Ten minutes later, Inari was in the bathroom when his mother called him. Walking out of the bathroom he saw her sprawled out in the middle of the floor, two vicious looking samurai standing over her.
"Mom!" Inari cried.
"Inari stay back!" Tsunami shouted at the child
"Hey we only need one hostage right." One asked
"Yeah." The other answered as the first approached Inari with his sword drawn and a wicked grin on his face. The man stopped suddenly and looked down to see his foot encased in sand.
"What?" the man asked as the sand crept up his body.
"Hey man what's going…?" He turned to ask his friend but froze when he saw his comrade encased in sand as well.
"You two were fools for coming here." Gaara said quietly as he came out of the shadows. Flexing the sand wrapped around the blades he crushed them like cans and released the samurai.
"Return to your master and tell him that he will find no hostages here." He growled at the cowering men and released a massive amount of killer intent, and the men fled as fast as they could.
Sasuke was trapped in the Ice prison with Hinata while Minato and Kakashi were fighting with Zabuza. The thick mist Zabuza had raised had compromised Kakashi's sharingan and Zabuza made sure Minato couldn't touch him to plant a Hiraishin seal and the first time he had summoned the mist sucker toad, it had been nearly disembowled. Shino, Kiba, Sakura, and Yakumo were guarding Tazuna in the back while the battle raged.
"This isn't good." Kiba said
"Don't worry, things aren't lost yet." Shino said
Inside the ice prison Sasuke and Hinata were trying there hardest to stay alive. Even with Hinata's byakugan and Sasuke's newly awakened sharingan, Haku's speed was still overcoming them. The speedy Ninja sent of rain of needles at Hinata which Sasuke saw but was unable to prevent nor was Hinata fast enough to avoid it. The pale eyed girl looked at the rain of death coming toward her and her eyes widened, when a lone kunai knife landed in front of her and the needles vanished in a puff of smoke. When the smoke cleared, Naruto was standing in front of Hinata.
"Hey, you guys ok?" he asked looking at his wounded friends.
"Idiot, what are you doing here when you could have freed us from the outside?" Sasuke demanded
"Shut up. I don't need you telling me what to do!" Naruto shouted as he scattered Kunai in front of him then vanished in a yellow streak, and a mirror broke.
"What!" Haku demanded as one of his mirrors broke then another. Naruto reappeared in front of his friends breathing hard.
"Naruto, that was amazing." Hinata gushed
"Not bad huh?" Naruto asked between breaths
"I see that technique makes you faster than me, but it drains you. I doubt you'll be able to break all my mirrors with it." Haku reasoned.
"I'll show you!" Naruto shouted and formed the cross shaped seal.
"Shadow clone Jutsu!" A dozen Narutos vanished and the mirrors started breaking at an accelerated rate.
"Enough!" Haku shouted and sent a solid sheet of needles out of his remaining mirrors at Hinata and Sasuke, a sheet they couldn't escape. The dozen Narutos reappeared forming a shield to protect his friends. All the clones disappeared as they were impaled leaving a badly injured Naruto behind.
"Naruto!" Hinata said and rushed to his side. Naruto looked at the pale eyed girl and the feeling in his gut he got whenever he looked at her intensified.
"This is the end." Haku said as he prepared his final strike and all the memories Naruto had of his friends flashed in his mind. The years they spent together, meeting Gaara and Yakumo, and fighting Itachi for the first time.
"I can't die here, not now." Naruto thought of his friends as his rage and need called the power buried deep within him and a red aura began to develop.
"We can't die here." He thought as the aura intensified causing Hinata to gasp and stumble back and Haku to cringe within his mirrors.
"I'm gonna kill you!" Naruto growled as he readied a charge.
