Naruto thrown down a scroll, it twirling and unravelling as it hit the floor, the blonde then bit his thumb harshly and spread blood across the newly revealed scroll, he then threw it down against the floor and pumped chakra into it.
In a sudden white puff of smoke Sasuke looked in horror, it appears he was taught the edo-tensei but who was this new figure that Naruto had brought back from the dead, whoever it was Sasuke knew it wouldn't turn the fight in his favour what so ever.
The man had long black hair the two bangs split across his face almost down to his neck, and remaining behind it tied neatly, Sasuke could see red eyes piercing the smoke looking back at him, he was wearing an ANBU battle uniform that looked like it had seen better days.
"I-Itachi?" The raven haired boy said nervously "Sasuke. So you went through with it after all." He said calmly. "Went through with what?" the younger questioned.
"After our battle with Kabuto, I touched your forehead. I read it in your mind – but I never thought you'd make Naruto go through the pain of loss, you of all people should know it well."
"Shut up! This village will be destroyed today! For what they did to you! For what they did to the Uchiha!" He declared to his resurrected brother "You didn't honestly think I was actually going to let him kill me did you?"
"The Uchiha would have been wiped out completely if they started the civil war. At least when I was given the mission, it reduced the causalities of others – they brought it on themselves." He stated calmly with hints of regret.
"Sasuke! We will stop you!" Naruto announced to the boy he now saw as a full blown traitor.
"You! How dare you summon him from the dead! Amaterasu!" he declared blasting black flames towards Naruto.
"Amaterasu!" Itachi negated the black flames with his own "Actually Sasuke, it was my idea – I asked for Naruto to summon me if you ever attacked."
"Why!" He shouted it didn't make any sense to him at all "I put you on this path of hatred, I will be the one to end it." He said bluntly "Even if you escape us today, Naruto has my permission to summon me whenever he sees you."
"Escape! Hahahah! I won't need to escape." He said confident in his own abilities. With that he charged straight towards Naruto but was quickly intervened by Itachi landing a punch to his right cheek sending him sliding sideways, Sasuke thrown two kunai with exploding tags on towards Itachi, who dodged by leaping backwards.
Naruto charged at Sasuke the two engaging in a fierce taijutsu contest, Sasuke having trouble dealing with the Sage mode fighting style as it caught him on the body numerous times, and the blows didn't exactly tickle. One of the punches he landed in the centre of Sasuke's ribs causing him to be winded and take steps back to recover, only to feel the blunt force of a roundhouse across his face sending him crashing in the floor a few yards away.
"Katon: Hoenka (Fire Style: Flame Flower)" Itachi flew up into the air mouth pointed towards Sasuke's prone form and launched three huge fireballs crashing down on the young Uchiha, who only just managed to roll out of harm's way from the first two but was caught by the third leaving nasty burns on his right arm.
Sasuke growled looking at the two "Susanoo'o!" He declared the huge purple being rising up into its final form and aiming a crossbow straight at his older brother, "Susanoo'o." Itachi said calmly – he was hoping this would happen; he'd take back what he'd given Sasuke piece by piece.
The huge red chakra being unleashed a gourd capable of sealing things away for eternity and swung relentlessly at Sasuke's Susanoo'o which weaved in and out of the slashes and fired arrows towards his older brother as Sasuke leapt back avoiding a swing, something appeared behind him.
"Sage Art: Rasengan chain!" There were four clones in a single file line behind Naruto who slammed his Rasengans (one in each hand) into Sasuke's back and leapt away only for the clone behind him to take his place and do the same until Sasuke had been pushed forward by the twelve spheres, leaving him open to his older brother.
The slash came across the purple giant's chakra body and suddenly it twirled into the gourd disappearing from existence forever. Sasuke clutched his head letting out cries of pain as one of the abilities of his eternal mangekyou sharingan had been ripped away from him; he glared up at the older Uchiha.
"Amaterasu!" he said black flames following his glare towards Itachi, who merely commanded his Susanoo'o to block it with its enchanted shield, before the gourd was slashed again drawing away Sasuke's ability to use Susanoo'o, Sasuke writhed in pain but didn't get the chance as a chakra infused punch struck his jaw, sending him flying towards the edge of the barrier.
He now knew he had no chance of taking on the two of them.
"Drop the barrier!" He cried out to the members of taka, who quickly complied, Sasuke quickly leapt away from the building towards the forest, Naruto was about to follow when the three jumped in the path ahead, Itachi looked at Naruto who nodded, and in a poof of smoke Itachi disappeared, apparently Sasuke had to be within a certain radius for the weaker version of the Edo-tensei to work.
"Heh looks like its three on-" Suigetsu said before being interrupted by a fierce punch the nose, causing blood to spit from the nostrils, the now enraged Naruto was covered in by his Kyuubi form, and wasted no time throwing Suigetsu to the floor with force, and ripped his sword from its holster and threw it away from him.
The giant teen Juugo charged him now in the cursed seal mode, Naruto caught the fist with his own and thrown a startling elbow to the boys jaw, throwing him off his feet but before he could be launched by the attack Naruto grabbed his feet twirling him around in a spinning motion and threw him up in the air.
Three arms sprung from his chakra cloak grabbing the boy in mid-air holding him in position,
"Fuuton: Oodama Rasen-Shuriken!" as he said this a huge version of his technique whizzed in his hands and was launched straight at Juugo who in an instant was letting out screams of pain as his body was torn limb from limb and the arms of chakra retracted.
"Suiton: Teppoudama!(Water Style: Water Bullet)" Suigetsu rose up and fired a colossal ball of water straight towards Naruto who looked like he was ready to kill anyone who stood in his way, the blast hurtled towards him but he disappeared using the speed given to him by his latest form and re-appeared in front of Suigetsu.
"Rasengan: Tribute to the six paths of pain." Naruto formed two giant Rasengans in each hand follow by another four created in the chakra arms behind him, in one swift move all six of them hit Suigetsu simultaneously who choked out blood and soared into a nearby wall and was left there lifeless.
The blondes gaze quickly span to Karin. She looked at him horrified – there was nothing she could do, she was going to die. He appeared in front of her before she could even blink and she took two steps backwards.
Naruto smiled and said softly "Are you really going to fight for him?" her eye widened at this was he going to show her mercy? "You nearly threw your life away last time, and I didn't hear him even say thank you. Then again it was him who attacked you." He said a little colder, she shook her head towards the boy it's all she could manage to do.
He smiled weakly at her, and placed his hand on her head, a little chakra flowing through it, transforming her into a girl with long black hair similar the style she had it before, but a little less wild, her outfit had completely changed, now she wore a white simple dress top with buttons fastening it and wore dark blue fitted pants and a pair of black boots.
She didn't really understand until he filled her in on his plan. "Get out of here over the mountain behind us, if you are to ever come back, make sure it is not in the form of an attack. Or I will kill you." He said coldly at the last part, she nodded her thanks and escaped in the route he had told her.
He then turned back to the girl and placed his hand on her shoulder "Wait. How far away is Sasuke?" He asked her demanding the answer from the sensor. "Around 80miles away." She stated to him. "Dammit!" Naruto shouted before waving her off, Sasuke had moved fast and if he was going to catch up he'd need some sort of lead or there would be no chance of catching him, even then the distance was a slim chance of finding him now anyway.
He raced off into the forest the direction Sasuke had went intent on finding the Uchiha and stopping him once and for all.
_Konoha Village_
The wounded had been cared too thanks to the undercover Tsunade, who after sensing Sasuke had fled dropped her transformation and took control of the situation, at first a few were puzzled, they saw her head to the top of the building in the distance with the Uchiha traitor, what was she doing here.
She took a brief time to explain what had happened, and that Naruto had expected an attack and told her she would be of more use helping the wounded, which she had to agree with. The village didn't suffer much damage from the attack, except from the initial movement of the four.
Teams of ANBU were scouting the perimeter of the village making sure that no one else planned to attack the village, after all if news that a pair of eternal sharingan were up for grabs it wouldn't be surprising to have a few un-invited guests arrive.
Tsunade let out a sigh, and started throwing around order for the Jounin to look for any causalities in the direction in which Sasuke and Naruto headed, she was surprised when Gai and Kakashi brought back the body of Suigetsu as well as his executioners blade, and told her that the other boy Juugo was well – let's just say there wasn't much left to collect.
Although they hadn't managed to find the sensor girl, they imagined she had run after Sasuke, he could be healed by her after all which would allow him to take another stab at Naruto when he chased after him, which he would no doubt do.
_Konoha Forest_
Naruto was traveling at blinding speed through the forest, it reminded him of the route taken which lead him to the valley of the end, he could even see the remains of the now old markings left by his team mates to show Choji where to follow them – not that he ever did end up following them, the battle remains throughout the forest were still evident, and Naruto was now ready to give up – Sasuke had gotten away – he couldn't sense him even with the heightened abilities of his kyuubi mode.
He looked around at where he now stood, it was a clearing in the usually thick forest and if he recalled it was where Temari had unleashed one of her wind attacks, he decided to have a look around, jumping into the injured trees he jumped around slowly inspecting the area not looking for anything in particular.
He came to a cave, it looked pretty deep, close by was a stream just next to the entrance to the stream and around the cave was bushes with small berries attached to it and a pile of fallen fruit lay practically next the entrance of the cave.
The blonde was a little curious of why the fruit had been placed there and took a jump closer, and saw a figure in a prone position resting on their hands that looked to be drinking from the stream, then the figure looked startled and in a movement that looked to be dragging their whole body on just their arms got back to the entrance of the cave.
Before they could get in Naruto jumped down in front of the figure, she was wearing tattered clothes much too small for her, and despite her condition she was clean and her red hair glistened as beads of light caught it as Naruto looked down at her, this was …oh god it was her.
"What the fuck do you want glowstick?" she asked referring to Naruto's kyuubi form, he looked down at her a sigh leaving his mouth – it's her alright.
"I'm surprised you're still alive after all this time." He said to her only for to huff and glare at him
"Just because some scumbags from Konoha want me to die doesn't mean I'm going to, now who the fuck are you?" she demanded answers from the boy.
He released his kyuubi form and revealed his normal form of blonde hair blue eyes and whiskers across his face, and even gave a foxy grin to the girl, surprised that she'd forgotten him.
"Oh! What the hell! You're that faggot who chased after Sasuke so you could get married and live happily ever after." She said not even a hint that what she was saying wasn't exactly well mannered.
"What. The. Hell." He said looking down at her, he sighed heavily. "Actually I'm chasing him now, to end his life, didn't happen to see him did you?" he asked with a little coldness behind his voice that made her shudder.
"Yeah of course I saw him, just look at me, top –notch Uchiha-faggot lookout I mean can you not tell? I mean I'm the best around what with most of my body being broken and all." She said with heavy sarcasm on every word.
"Like you could kill him anyway you were a little bitch back then and he kicked your ass, even if you did put up one hell of a fight." She said bringing up painful memories in the blondes past.
"You know Akatsuki right?" he questioned the red head. "Of course I know Akatsuki you dumb fuck."
"Killed those guys." He said as if it was a trophy. "What." She said questioning his statement.
"Killed 'em."
"But those guys were as strong as or stronger than Orochimaru…" she said "oh well it'll be easier for him to send someone to find me." Naruto winced at this. "You know 'faggot-Uchiha'…" she nodded as best she could "…yeaaahh he erm, kinda killed Orochimaru…" her eyes widened and she reached to feel that her curse mark had vanished.
"What the fuck! Now what am I going to do! Who else did you fuckers kill!" She demanded more answers of the outside world from the blonde.
"You know the guy with Rinnegan, Nagato – the six paths of pain?"
"Are you shittin' me?" she questioned 'how strong is this asshole anyway?' she thought.
"Do you know Madara Uchiha, and all of the Jinchuuriki that were killed and brought back to life, oh and that guy who pretended to be Madara called Tobi."
She sighed and nodded already knowing the answer "Yeah…killed those too" he said itching the back of his head, he was making it sound like he was proud of it.
"So I take it you're going to kill me now." She said bluntly.
Naruto was a bit taken back by this; the conversation had quickly changed tone.
"Why would I kill you?" he was a bit confused at the sudden change.
"Well I'm the enemy you asshole." She said coldly despite her tough outer shell she didn't want to die or she would have done it already living in a cave isn't exactly paradise.
Naruto tapped on his Hitai-ate loud enough for it to make a ringing sound, she looked up at it and read that it said 'Shinobi' instead of his usual Konoha leaf symbol.
"What's with that shit?" she asked to be honest she didn't really care – he was going to kill her anyway.
"Allied the five elemental nations, which means that all shinobi are allied, well with exceptions but whatever." He said making it sound like the task was all in a day's work.
"Get to the point asshole, why should I give a fuck about that!" He suddenly noticed that she couldn't be comfortable like that and crouched down to her arms close to her waist.
"May I? …" he asked carefully in a soft tone so she didn't try to rip his face off, she just nodded reluctantly, as he picked her up carefully bridal style, to earn a wince from her as he touched her legs, he sat her down against the cave so she was sat up looking more comfortable.
"…Thanks." She said bluntly looking away from him.
"What's your name anyway I didn't ask before; too busy chasing after my future husband apparently." She let out a chuckle at that, she couldn't help it as much as she wanted to hold it in.
"Well?" he nudged her on the arm gently "What's your name?" He asked his curiosity taking the better of him.
"Tayuya." He nodded "My name is Naruto Uzumaki, hmmm I suppose I should throw Namikaze on the end since the Yondaime was my dad." He said rubbing his chin. She had to collect her jaw from the floor, he was the yondaime's kid? 'Well Fuck.' She thought to herself.
"I think I'll just stick to asshole…or anything I damn feel like calling you. Now are you going to kill me or what?" she said to the blonde, who just shook his head.
"Nope, don't feel like killing anyone except 'faggot-Uchiha' today." He said to her.
"Oh so you're just going to leave me to my cave. Nice." She said, hell maybe dying would be better than this. He gently touched her legs earning a wince the unexpected touch gave her a shock.
"What the hell was that for you asshole!" she shrieked at him, her legs hurt like hell, and as far as she knew they were beyond repair.
"They hurt that bad huh?" he asked , she gave him a look that said "no shit."
"Well guess we'll just have to do something about them." A sudden look of worry came over her face.
"I swear to god if you cut of my legs I'll find a way to hate you even more than I already do." She allowed a faint smirk to fall over her face, for some reason she had a feeling he wasn't going to do anything like that.
He closed his arms and chakra around the area seemed to whip up a breeze and then with a bright light he went back into the form he was in before and he re-opened his eyes and looked down at the girl.
"So you're a glowstick again, now what." She questioned not seeing where he was going with this.
"Well I'm going to rip your legs off of course." He said bluntly and crouched down with his hand in a gripping motion.
"D-Don't you fucking dare!" She said, and earned a light hearted chuckle from the boy.
"Like I'd do something like that!" he said a fake hurt voice apparent in his tone, she let out a 'hmph.'
He lightly placed a hand on each of her legs and she looked at him with warning eyes.
"Well, this form uses chakra with a lot of Life-energy…" she nodded "Soooo…I mean I've never tried it before, but what have you got to lose!" he said as if it wasn't an important matter.
Before she could say anything the chakra was racing through her legs, and it was providing her with a soothing feeling that made her let out a relieved sigh, Naruto could feel as the chakra was repairing her muscles and tendons now for the hard part.
He took his arm of the leg furthest from him, and placed it over the leg closest to him, he removed the hand previously working on this leg and offered it up to her mouth. "This is going to hurt." He said.
Suddenly the chakra intensified and she could feel it gripping her broken bones tightly – she immediately chomped down hard on Naruto's arm, he didn't even flinch, the shattered pieces of bone re-attached themselves and the bones clicked back into place.
That was the right leg done. She released her grip on his arm to reveal blood trickling down it, he shrugged it off. "I-I can feel it! I can feel my right leg!" she exclaimed over joyed.
"Not done yet Tayuya-chan." He said offering the arm that had no bite marks on, as he switched sides.
The process was repeated and she chomped down just as hard at the pain, but when it was over she could feel her left leg. "Y-You fixed my legs…" she said still in astonishment. He just gave her a foxy grin that said 'you're welcome.'
"don't even try standing just yet, it'll take a while, you'll probably have to crawl around first – like learning to walk again." He said to her, she sighed, but even that was a lot better than her previous means of getting around.
He lifted her up and she wrapped an arm around his neck – she had to hold on somehow you know. And he took her into the cave and placed her down softly, luckily the cave was still well light.
He then turned and started walking out of the cave much to the red head's surprise.
"What the fuck! Where are you going! You can't just leave me here!" she shouted desperately only to jerk her head at the echo of her own voice, she really did sound desperate, but when you haven't talked to anyone in three years and you were pretty sure you were going to die every day and then some guy shows up and is apparently the saviour of the world, heals your legs instead of killing you and actually gives a good conversation, well it's hard to let all of that go again.
He simply turned round calmly "I figured you'd be hungry" he said as he smiled and walked away again. During the time he was gone was agony for the red head she stared at the cave entrance, not because of him of course, she was really hungry by now , that's all – though in the back of her mind it was screaming for him to come back already.
Soon a nice aroma filled her nose as he walked in with what looked like two portions of meat, she looked at it and back to him "Duck." He stated to her, she nodded and took it from him, it was safe to say the two devoured the duck pretty fast and Naruto was surprised to have found someone who could match him in eating speed.
"Man that was good! I haven't eaten meat in like – well I don't know how long." She stated a little worried at how long had passed since her battle with Shikamaru and Temari. As if reading her mind he stated "Four Years." She became a little wide eyed at that. 'Four years! Well it's good to see people give a shit about what happened to me!' she thought to herself.
Naruto dropped a hand on her shoulder and smiled easing her almost instantly, he looked outside and it was getting late, he got up and went to get wood for a fire, although that seemed like a lot of work, so he just hit a small tree with a Rasengan, and collected the fallen branches.
He came back into the cave and lit the fire, it illuminated the cave with a soft orange glow, and he looked at Tayuya almost staring at it, he couldn't help but notice her radiant red hair –and its shine now tinted orange by the glow of the fire, it highlighted her slightly tanned skin as he sat down next to her, he managed to rip his eyes from her.
"You okay?" he asked softly, to the red head, she turned to look at him so many questions were racing through her mind. "Why are you doing this for me? Why do you care? No fucker else does." She said obvious hurt and confusion in her voice but she didn't care.
"Is it bad that I care?" he asked taking her of guard completely she didn't know what to say at all,
"Being lonely sure sucks doesn't it." He said quietly to receive a nod from the red head neither going to pry into one another's backgrounds.
"Well. It's getting late." He said standing up, she feared the worse, this time he was going to leave her in this crappy cave all by herself. He pulled out a scroll and unsealed a two blankets, both thick, one would be used to lay on – the other to keep warm, and two pillows – for obvious reasons.
"Who knows how long I would have had to chase the 'faggot-Uchiha.' He said before laying down the blankets and pillows were stacked on top of each other, he picked her up carefully and lay her down on the make shift bed, he pulled the cover over her – she hadn't been this comfortable in four years, actually longer than that – she always had to share a bed with someone at Orochimaru's hideouts but truth be told she hadn't gotten accustomed to sleeping alone.
He turned on his heel and went to leave, she uncharacteristically clutched his wrist, and he turned his head and looked down at her, her hardened brown eyes looking up at his strong blue orbs.
"W-Where are you going asshole." She said pulling her gaze away from his eyes.
"To sleep outside, in a tree or something." He said casually but was caught off guard when she said
"Y-You can sleep in here i-if you want, I-I used to share a bed all the time anyway, it feels weird when I don't." gaining confidence in her reasons as she agreed with them, she opened up the blanket allowing him space to get in – she separated the pillow tower allowing him one of his own.
He lay down with her and she immediately welcomed the warmth and without thinking wrapped her arms around his waist and clung to him like he was her favourite stuffed toy. He chuckled at her motion causing her to get a soft blush across her features, she was glad he was facing the opposite way, he rolled over to face her. 'Thought too soon.' She mocked herself.
He swept the red bangs of her face and out of her eyes, with a smile before rolling over again, she was left speechless. "Goodnight Tayuya-chan." He spoke softly 'Tayuya-Chan' repeated in her ears.
"D-Don't be getting the wrong idea asshole!" she said, still clutching him tight.
He let out a laugh "Why would I think that?" he said like it was obvious, in honesty she felt a little hurt – but wasn't going to go there. "I didn't mean it like that." He said softly
"What I meant is when I get back to Konoha I'll be getting married to my two girlfriends." He said like it was the most normal thing in the world.
For some reason she didn't like the thought of that at all. "W-What do you mean you're getting married to you two girlfriends!" she said with killing intent on the last words. He didn't understand why she was angry although neither did she.
"Well you see, I'm involved in the restoration of the Uzumaki clan, so I signed a contract that states I'm supposed to have three wives as a minimum." Again speaking as this was any other normal thing, for reasons she couldn't explain she clutched to him tighter when she heard the word three.
"W-Whatever, goodnight asshole." She said before the two fell asleep.
The blonde haired male woke up to the sounds of birds tweeting and natures normal soundtrack, he looked down at the red head sprawled across him, this was a lot better than most likely trudging home night and day wounded from a fight with Sasuke, a lot better. He took the time to examine her closer.
Her red hair framed her face and had grown longer over the years, now reaching to the middle of her back, he couldn't help but stroke it, she let out a soft appreciating noise before nuzzling into Naruto's chest a little more, he couldn't help but smile, though she had been living out here all this time, her skin looked soft and well cared for, but he noticed her ragged clothes and couldn't imagine them to be comfortable.
He heard a yawn and then her eyes bolted open, seeing how close she was nuzzling against his chest she expected herself to jerk forward, but she couldn't, it just felt natural to her she knew he was stroking her hair she prepared to bark out an angry speech to him, but couldn't find it in her.
"Morning Asshole – I see you like my hair." Was the best she could do, though he didn't stop stroking her red locks.
"You didn't seem to mind when you were asleep, in fact you made a purring noise then attacked my chest." He said embarrassing her, she was glad she had her face hidden by his chest, her two arms still wrapped around him. "S-Shut up!" she commanded to the blonde, who stopped stroking her hair and too her surprised wrapped her in an embrace.
It felt so soothing, like nothing else mattered she just wanted to stay there.
"It doesn't make you weak you know – to like stuff like this, in fact I love getting my hair stroked like that it's so relaxing." He smiled at her genuinely, she'd never heard a ninja say something like that before, but then again it wasn't every day she was wrapped up in somebody's arms in a cave.
She brought one of her arms up nervously and held it close to his forehead, he gave her a nod and she began softly stroking his yellow locks, he closed his eyes and started to relax and she looked down at him, letting out a breath she didn't know she was holding in and let out a few nervous laughs, while she was stroking his hair she felt the arms around her pull her against him a little tighter. 'Maybe I could like this after all.' She thought.
He pulled the both of them up, his back against the cliff wall and held her in his arms, one of her own wrapped around him, while one was enjoying the new feeling of stroking his hair, she found herself relaxed and rested her head against his shoulder, he decided to return the favour and once again started stroking her hair.
"See it's not so bad is it?" he said softly only for her to shake her head. They sat like that with each other for a while, until Naruto motivated her into 'walking' she was a little nervous at first but he said he'd help.
He was holding her in a standing position with his arms around her waist keeping her from falling, he made a shadow clone and she hung her left arm over its neck for balance, and he took the position on her right side, she was now standing up.
"Come on Tayuya-chan! You can do it!" he said smiling happily as she was about to take her first step "I-I don't think I can, no doubt I'll end up falling on my ass." She said with little belief this would work
"it's okay I won't let you fall." He said merrily, she decided to trust his words, and took a nervous first step, not falling she decided to take a couple more, almost loosing balance she was nudged back up by the clone, she took a few more and they managed to get out of the cave.
Naruto dispelled the clone and took position behind her holding her up, she was smiling ear to ear at using her legs again "Alright! I told you that you could do it!" he exclaimed happily, she let out a small chuckle.
"T-Thank you asshole." She said relaxing into his arms, he picked her up and rested her against a tree.
"You don't want to strain them too much, that must have been a lot of work." He said having sympathy for her redeveloping muscles.
He sat down beside her, in a way she couldn't believe her luck, just a day before she was dragging around her broken legs by just her arms, struggling to get any form of food and water by herself now appeared a glowing man who in the past was considered her enemy, she would of killed him then if she had the chance, funny she thought, as now here he was nursing her back to full health and a little more.
Authors Notes: Haven't updated this one in a long time! Figured I'd get it out before the next chapter of Rise of Uzunami, also new story maybe on the go shortly! Juggling the three might be a little difficult at times so if one is released for a decent period of time just check a different story of mine!
About Tayuya, well I had been reading a lot of NaruTayu fanfics and really enjoy the couple, their personality's go together so well, and the way she talks allows a bit of fun too XD
