Chapter 12: Pain of reality
A/N: Howdy guys so… I'm supposed to do something academic so I mind as well do another chapter for y'all. And this chapter's tile is….well frightening I hope. But also I'd like to address something I thought of. Part of the reason he killed Tsunade without much remorse is that when your body is asleep it resolves issues without any guilt resulting as a cause of the human emotion. Just thought I'd bring that up as it would be similar if not the same inside the ninja world, furthermore, considering naruto's training in the past as a samurai and stuff I have yet to reveal shows his lacking in emotion. Anyways I hope y'all enjoy this chapter.

As I pulled away from her cheek I saw her eyes flutter open.

"What was that Naruto-kun?" She asked me sweetly I smiled, I couldn't resist smiling. I laid back down and hugged her tightly. A display of affection I'd never given her the benefit of having unless we were in danger and I was taking us away. Fu was. To say the least beautiful, her skin was a dark tan color, her muscles were well built but not over built like a body builder. She had quite the relaxed looking face, calm and fair. No crease marks despite being 21 and having been running for the last… what 8 years? This was not something I should have asked of her. As I hugged her I realized I was very much in love with Fu and if I lost her I would lose myself. My dream, my subconscious wasn't lying. I knew I had very strong feelings. I mind as well be her boyfriend, nearly her husband at this point in the shinobi world. I sighed and opened my mouth to say something but she cut me off. "Did you have that awful dream last night?" She asked me in a whisper.

"About you dying?" I responded equally as quiet.

"Yes. But no, in mine…you died. You died nobly though…" she said trying to push away the obvious pain that she felt at the prospect of me dying.

"You died in mine Fu..I..I can't let that happen, never leave my side even in this upcoming battle okay?" I begged her. She smiled and turned to look at me, her orange eyes staring at me warmly.

"I won't Naruto." She said confidently.

"Would you –" was all I could manage before she cut me off.

"Yes…yes I would." She responded immediately not letting me finish

"Lets..make sure we're on the same page."

"You were..asking me out weren't you?" She said becoming slightly shy afraid I hadn't meant that.

"No…I" I started to say but she started wriggling away from me her eyes beginning to fill with tears.

"Oh. So you don't feel that way towards me even after all we've been through. All the secrets we've shared…after everything?" she said harshly stinging me getting up and standing at the dresser beginning to get dressed. I put my hand on the bed and got up.

"No. Fu.." I said quietly almost in tears. "I was just…thinking about…would you marry me…?" I asked falling onto one knee my head not looking her in the face tears full on my face now. She turned around and I felt her hot gaze staring into the top of my head as I looked down crying.

"Not until you look me in the face." She said harshly. I slowly picked my head up expecting to see rejection and anger in her face and eyes. Instead as I stood up and looked at her I was hit by a moving force. Suddenly I felt her lips softly touch mine and pull away before I could respond to her touch. We landed on the bed and she was on top of me. She was still in her sleep clothes the dresser half open I was in my boxers and nothing else, that hadn't changed in all these years. I stared at her shocked she looked back at me lovingly while sitting on my chest. She proceeded to draw a heart on my chest. "Of course I'll marry you Naruto Uzumaki." I smiled my eyes losing their shock and I pulled her down and kissed her deeply on the lips. I lost myself to her tender kiss. Again she kissed me lightly and put a hand on my chest for support and she closed her eyes. I slowly closed mine blushing. We kissed for what felt like ages and suddenly we were parted as the sun rose letting golden rays light up the sky and lighten up our room. She laid down on me and we cuddled… For real for the first time ever, when I looked over it was nearly noon. We got up did our normal routine but with no less seriousness. In fact it got even more serious and we got better. 3 days later, the night of the attack we decided on a plan of action.

"We seal them in and WE take on Tsunade. I can't let you die Fu." I told her quietly. She smiled. "Let me jump down first and lure them out and then you just from behind and seal us all in one. I don't know if the other Jinchuuriki will be there or not but we can't take risks." I said matter factly. Quickly after dinner we got our gear together as usual and took a nap and woke up to the first seals being set off. We quickly got our gear on and quickly pulled out some ambu masks and black cloaks over us and we quietly crept to our building where we'd be waiting for them to yell up at us. Slowly they approached our house slowly setting off silent seals giving us more levels of warning.

"Still no alarms went off" I twitched my head and I felt Shikamaru say quietly.

"Why not? He's smarter than he used to be" Sakura said. Sasuke simply walked beside then silent. He wasn't entirely on the side of the hidden leaf, or the shinobi "alliance" but he didn't have info from me why there wasn't any security going off.

"He's too stupid I guess!" Kiba shouted loudly raising his fist.

"Quiet, you're just as bad as the dobe." Sasuke said sneering. "If he didn't know we were here before he knows now."

he rolled his neck and I watched as they stopped right where they did in my dream. I listened to Tsunade's little speech and this time they came up with different options which made me squint.

"YOU HAVE 3 OPTIONS NARUTO UZUMAKI! 1) YOU CAN COME PEACEFULLY AND SHE WILL REMAIN UNHARMED. YOU WILL SERVE 5 YEARS IN JAIL. 2) YOU CAN COME BY FORCE AND BE TAKEN AWAY FROM HER OR 3) YOU CAN BE KILLED AND HER TAKEN HOSTAGE AND PUNISHED FOR YOUR CRIMES OR VICE VERSA!" Tsunade yelled towards the main house. I grinned.

"this is my response" I whispers onto the wind and let it carry to her voice but not my location, our chakra was completely suppressed, no sensory could detect us. I saw her head whip around as if wondering where my response was. I blew more words to her. "Your army is not powerful enough to take me and my bride on." I saw her shoulders tense up and I smiled under my mask. And whispered a challenge and Fu glared at me for this. She hated this part of the plan "in fact you're so pathetic I'll just send my elite two ninja too deal with you all." I saw Tsunade bubble with rage and she punched the ground.

"Stop, with your chakra so pumped we can't detect their chakra." A sensory nin told her.

"He has given us his answer" she growled anger etched into her face. "And it was that we weren't worth his fucking time!" She yelled into space. With that I took it as my cue to jump down, I grabbed Fu at the last second and she landed next to me when the dust cleared we were standing casually. I did some quick hand signs that no one but she knew and she took the message and stepped away. "I take it you're Naruto's replacement then!" She growled and looked at the sensory unit.

"He has no detectable chakra" the quickly reported.

"Then he should die easily!" Tsunade said putting on a burst of speed from her chakra which I casually dodged as she threw a punch at me. I didn't even bother to counter.

"Not really." I replied icily. She quickly threw another one and I continued to dodge till she was out of breath. I just looked at her through my mask. "I pity you…Tsunade." I growled still keeping my voice abnormal.

"I guess you can keep up with her, but what about me!" Ay said nearly a foot from my face with his technique now. I ducked and he flew into a nearby rock.

"Oh. As for you Ay, you're not really worth my time. I'm not built for certain ninja's but you 5. Should be fine. I grinned under my mask and nodded towards the other 3 Kage standing at ready. Ay flew back towards me and I jumped up dodging his moves and landing next to it. "At least make me use chakra." I told them flatly. All five threw themselves at me at once. Tsunade threw a punch from the side of my head and Ay from the left, Gaara had sands coming from each side, Mei had Lava coming from the top. Onoki while not directly attacking had his dust particle ready and aimed at my skull. I dropped my head and flickered away from all the attacks. Mei's lava his Ay and Tsunade's arms. They screeched in pain and pulled away the sand hit them and washed the lava off but the both needed brief healing. I looked at them both still holding my chakra down. I turned my head to Fu and nodded; she returned it and quickly went about quickly doing hand signs making a sealed barrier around the five Kage's and the two "elite" ninja.
