Chapter 11: A Fleeting Hope
A/N: Soooo…I feel relatively bad (okay more than relatively) about not giving you guys some updates. I've been busy with school and things. I kinda backed myself into a corner again with this fic, I'm planning on having it expand, don't worry but finals and so on. I'm busy till the end of the year. I'll try to get out 2 maybe 3 chapters before I go home.

bankai777: I can't say for sure. But it's definitely…possible. In realistic terms he's "met" her but only in combat. Beyond that I'm not sure.

zeldawolffang: I pretty much got them to have power ups to be able to withstand the force of two villages full of jonin ninja as well as the kage basically. And Now they're backed up to a corner in Uzushiogakure. That is where they're headed now. In this chapter. Next chapter will be full of battle (hopefully more eventful and…graphic) then it's well. I'll leave it a mystery otherwise I'd ruin the story.

2 more years pass. We hear information of us as we would kill stray missionaries….Eventually we got tired of this life though. We'd rebuilt the town and still had the supplies we would ever need. We ambushed a group of ninja's one day and we finally had a conversation letting them know where we were… and who the mysterious attackers were.

"Tell the Kazikage that Naruto Uzumaki has been destroying his teams for the sake of information, he's living at Uzushiogakure and he's giving the five villages a chance to take him and his…." I hesitated a looked at Fu, she was 21 and I was 23 now. Our relationship wasn't exactly like friends but wasn't exactly a…relationship, like the one I had yearned for with Sakura for so many years. I quickly bit my lip and scrunched my face and looked back and continued. "his fiancé. We are willing to fight two villages alone. If you bring a third or more there will be complete carnage." I growl at him and throw him down. He looks at me terrified and scrambles away quickly not even worrying about his dead teammates. He rushed off in the direction of the desert and I looked back at Fu the look of anger and hatred disappearing, she looked at me aghast.

"Sh-Should we really be doing this are we ready?" She said but I knew she was in shock about me calling her my fiancé. We'd been together as friends for damn near 10 years. If she wasn't my fiancé then I don't know what she was. I looked and her and she just stared back blatant shock in her eyes.

"We're ready, fiancé"

"I so am not your fiancé" she said indignantly

"10 years and you feel nothing"

"y-y-yes."

"Bullshit" I said walking up to her and I hugged her tightly she blushed.

"f-fine…fiancé" she whispered quietly her face getting bright enough to where you could see it. I let go of her and took her hand. We casually walked back to our house inside Uzushiogakure and rested for the night. Not three days later in the middle of the night I felt a ripple before I went to bed. We had an uneventful past couple of days so we were still rested. We slept with our gear next to us…opposite of each other. We slept together now in each other's arms… We were just settling down when I heard the first seals go off and I got up immediately and she opened her eyes. "What is it?" she asked casually

"They're here. I'm interested to see what villages came." I said grinning send out my sage chakra. I growled shortly after.

"They cheated… didn't they" She asked sounding irritated.

"yeah…get ready to go" I said sounding like I did when I met her.

"Fine." She said shrugging her shoulders we both quickly changed into fighting gear. The shinobi would all be wearing contemporary gear used in times of peace and modern day. Not this old stuff. I thought grinning at the armor I was wearing. I looked at us both. We were in armor that you would have expected Hashirama Senju, or Madara Uchiha to have worn. Like they did in the valley of the end. I rolled my neck and grabbed my samurai swords and a few spare Uzumaki trait techniques. Fu brought what she brought. I honestly didn't know but I trusted her to be prepared. As time passed more seals went off. Without their knowledge but I was aware... We got the roof top and slowly followed their progress by eye sight, yet covered by black cloaks to hide us in the shadow of the night.

"NAUROT UZUMAKI! YOU HAVE COMMITED TREASON TO THE FIVE GREAT NATIONS AND YOU WILL PAY FOR YOUR CRIMES BY ONE OF THREE METHODS!" I heard Tsunade yell at me. So she was in the lead. I growled quietly I could feel other Biju chakra around. Quite a few if I might add. I suppressed both of ours so they wouldn't detect us. They were all facing towards the center house were we had been not even 10 minutes before….

"Rats." I said quietly, almost in audibly, Fu's orange gaze flicked towards me.

"How are we going to respond" she whispered?

"we're not" I growled quietly. She simply nodded in response and then Tsunade called again.

"NARUTO, YOUR THREE OPTIONS ARE AS FOLLOWS. 1) YOU COME BACK TO THE VILLAGE AND DO 300 COMMUNITY SERVICE HOURS WITH NO MISSIONS ALLOWED. THE GIRL WILL BE ALLOWED TO STAY BUT NOT WITH YOU UNTIL YOU FINISH YOUR SERVICE OR 5 YEARS HAVE PASSED. 2) YOU WILL BATTLE HERE AND BE TAKEN BY FORCE AND YOU WILL SERVE 6 MONTHS IN JAIL AT EACH ONE OF THE VILLAGES JAILS… AFTER THIS YOU WILL BE PARDONED AND ARE ALLOWED TO MARRY THIS GIRL AT YOUR OWN WILL AND WANDER ON YOUR OWN FREE WILL WITH THE BLESSINGS OF THE VILLAGE…" I heard her voice crack after this and I felt my heart sink. "THIS OPTION IS SPLIT INTO TWO….." she stopped yelling and spoke as if too no one but audibly enough that it would be heard be me if I was ready to fight. "You…can die here and forever let it be your grave. Or She will die for your sins and you will be forgiven and you will live however you wish." She finished at a whisper. Fu almost jumped down at once to offer herself up as tribute I grabbed her quickly by the wrist and pulled her back… into a hug. I heard her start crying.

"you…have to let me go. You can't suffer anymore because of them" I shook my head.

"Too lose you Fu. Is to lose life itself. And without you… I am not complete. Without you the last ten years would have been hell. Without you I would have lost myself…Without you Fu. I would not be who I am today. And I won't let them take that away from me." Now we both were crying quietly a few heads had turned at the sound of our crying. I quickly turned it into a distant howl and she followed. The shinobi ignored us, passing us off as wolves.

"WELL NARUTO! WHAT SAY YOU" Ay said [A/N: I have a keyboard now so I can capitalize A's so I will now refer to him by his name not by "Raikage" unless necessary for official stuff.]

"I say…You will all die here. For trespassing on my families burial ground. For even attempting to come at me will all five nations at once. And for attempting to use my fiancé and leverage." I reply quietly that they don't hear. She looks at me her tears stopping.

"COME OUT AND GIVE US YOUR ANSWER!" Gaara said desperately. I flickered in and out of existence in an instant and swept away 20,000 soldiers with the sweep of my sword. Before anyone had realized what happened I was gone. They weren't dead. I wasn't going to kill them unjustly.

"Is that your answer? Uzumaki, Naruto?" The Mizukage responded looking causally. I walked forward for my ledge with Fu.

"Wait until I attack Tsunade to attack that will be signal" I told her quietly and I jumped and landed on the ground in front of Tsunade in a black cloak and an ambu mask. "Ma'am I'm going have to ask you to leave, lady Fu and Lord Naruto are quiet tired" Tsunade through a punch at me and I dodged sideways. "Now, now slug queen don't have to be so hasty do we. I said venom dripping from my voice.

"Who are you, you're no ordinary ninja, to be able to dodge my movements like that" she growled.

"LET ME TRY!" Ay said rushing forward full speed. I closed my eyes behind the mask and ducked the upper cutted his chin making him fly backwards. He hit the ground and dust flew up.

"what? What was that, to be able to dodge lord Raikage?!" Some of the Jonin said testily.

"I grinned beneath my mask I looked up and saw Fu giving me a death stare with her orange eyes." I smirked I needed to get this show on the road. That is, if I wanted to win that was. I looked at Tsunade in the face and my eyes went completely sage mode and crossed with Kurama's chakra. I couldn't use his biju cloak yet for fear of giving away my ruse. Several shinobi ran at me but I easily dodged them. The kage were watching, Ay looking at me suspiciously.

"How did you avoid me?" He asked angrily.

"You're too slow." I told him looking down and taking off my mask and raising my eyes to meet Tsunade's but not raising my head. She gasped and took a step back.

"You….You…How did you?!"

"what is it Tsunade who is h-" Ay was cut off by a elbow to his chest sending him flying backwards I landed on top of him and rode him like a skateboard and he skidded across the ground.

"I'm Naruto Uzumaki, the wandering rouge ninja, pleasure to meet you, Ay." I said casually jumping off to avoid several shinobi running at me with kunai I landed to the side. I felt for Fu's chakra. She hadn't moved yet and I felt 5 other chakra's running towards me. The other hosts, I shook off my hood revealing my golden hair and I felt their pace increase. I jumped sideways avoiding their attacks… I flipped until I was back in front of the Kages. "Don't be so hasty. This is a battle none of you have to fight. I am aiming to talk it out in peace, not fight it out." Tsunade threw a punch as soon and I finished. I caught it defusing the chakra in her fit and flipping her over. She landed on her feet and threw another punch. I dodged and tripped her. The ground meeting her fist broke into a 15 foot crater.

"You…Monster." Was all I heard from her

"I guess that means no negotiations?" I asked politely mocking them.

"No." The Mizukage stated at me glaring yet not yet approaching me.

"well. That is unfortunate.. for you all."

"Where's the girl"

"You're in no position to be making demands" I stated as a huge barrier encased them as well and seals on each side slowly dragging the seal inward. "this won't kill you but it'll definitely hurt. And in the meantime." I flicked my finger and I started running at Tsunade who had gotten up her fists bleeding and she was panting slightly.

"where….is…the….girl.." She panted each word seemingly drawn out.

"Where she is….oh she's around. But you have to worry about it. Bloodless night unholy night. Sword style slicing evil!" I growled and everything went red. Or so I've been told, I say nothing but gray as time slowed down. I rushed towards her but all she could do was look afraid I pulled out four blades they quickly blazed with chakra and I sliced down clean chopping her arms off her shoulders and finished off with a slice cutting her in half. Before she could even react I had moved back to my position from before and slide my blades away. As I put my dagger that activated the technique away it broke and she fell to the ground her arms next to her and her body toppled over, split in half. "good. That way I won't have to deal with you healing. I wasn't going to be foolish enough to leave her alive I took out one of my samurai blades and stuck her in the throat with it casually pulling outward so her jugular exploded. I looked up and saw Fu watching casually before jumping inside the sealed barrier and slicing nearly 500,000 shinobi to pieces. The only ones who survived were of course, the rookie 11, the Kage's, and Kankuro and Temari. Fu quickly jumped backwards to leave the seal but was gunned down by Mei Terumi. Her lava style burned Fu's wings and her cloak melted away. I watched in horror as it occurred. I felt a self of dread and Ay smashed down of her face as Gaara watched with a fist of sand ready to punch her down if she got up. Fu could take a beating but not like this. I started to cry and Tsunade still alive smiled sadly.

"sh..she's going to die Naruto" Tsunade said before I released a nine tails chakra hand and broke her neck.

"She won't die." I growls releasing the barriers and charging Ay Gaara Mei and Onoki all head on. Mei quickly turned and began spitting out lava jutsu, steam water and fire all rapid fire. I was losing my mind to Kurama's lesser nice half and I could feel my cloak start to become reinforced. My pace quickened and I smashed Ay away while simultaneously kicking Gaara in the face and choking Mei then tossing her away and spitting a biju bomb at Onoki who barely broke it apart with his dust particle Jutsu. The biju hosts were still locked inside their seal and I quickly grabbed Fu and haired away toward the river. Where no one would find us in our secret hiding spot, I cried and cried, but she was mortally wounded. I growled and let my chakra flow over her trying to heal her but it wasn't quick enough. She was on her death bed the following night.

"I love you Naruto…Please…Please don't take it out on them." She said as her dying words. Before she died, I kissed her…tenderly lovingly and I held her close. I kissed her lips one last time as she went cold and let out her last breath. I growled and I worked quickly, still in tears I undid the seal that kept Chomei locked I undid it and seal Chomei within myself. I hated doing this to the tailed beasts. I hated doing this to Fu…All I knew from that moment on was that I was going to murder everyone in the five nations for what they'd done to her. I fell asleep quickly that night only to wake up the following morning in my bed. The bird chirping and light streaming in through our window, Fu sleeping next to me calmly, I kissed her cheek lightly. I had 36 hours to work this out. And I would fix it so she didn't die. I couldn't let her die….

A/N: So there. Not quite as filled with action as I wanted it to be but… And yes this was all a dream. Pretty much it was all a dream from the getting ready onward. My actual idea for what happened was he got ready for bed fearing it would happen and it just…materialized. So yeah there's your bs no jutsu for plot. I couldn't kill off Fu. I really couldn't at least not till he has something else to live for.
