Well I know that last chapter was a little "Eh" but it was just to get me goin again really so anyway

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto

Gritting his teeth Naruto backed away from Shinji as his blade came down again, this guy was good. Doing a one-handed backspring Naruto put even more space between him and Shinji so as to possibly come up with a plan. Shinji stood there swinging his blade, tauntingly so, with a smirk on his face. This guy was built, simple black pants at his waist and shiny dress shoes on his feet, and just because he knew he was ripped he had no shirt. The most noticeable feature was his many facial piercings.

"Cmon! You just gonna stand there or are you gonna fight? Huh?" Shinji taunted.

Naruto growled and felt around his body for his pistol, it wasn't until he remembered why he took that gun out of their armory in the first place. He did however find his knife, a smirk went on his face. Locking eyes with Shinji he flicked his hand towards himself, Shinji growled and attacked. Naruto deflected and pulled out his knife, ducking into him he stabbed Shinji in the leg. Getting his knife out of Shinji's body he kicked out his knee then got him in the face. Backing away from Shinji he put his knife away and started to walk towards the shack on the roof. It wasn't until he felt a sharp pain in his leg did he realize that Shinji wasn't done yet.

"Where do you think you're goin' Namikaze? Huh?" Shinji growled.

Shinji walked over to Naruto with his sword raised high ready for the killing blow. Before Shinji could bring the blade down Naruto did a tripping kick and floored Shinji. Standing back up Naruto had to put most of his weight on his left leg for the pain shooting through his right at the moment. Shinji jumped back up and attacked Naruto again, as Shinji drove his blade towards Naruto, he did the same. As the two men were having a struggle over the blades they suddenly shot out of both of their hands. Looking in the direction of their swords, Shinji took the advantage and roundhouse kicked Naruto in the face.

"Ha! If that's all you got then this will be way easier!" Shinji taunted.

Gritting his teeth Naruto kicked with his right leg and connected with one of Shinji's ankles and heard a sickening snap. Screaming Shinji dropped to the ground holding his broken ankle, Naruto rolled away and got back onto his feet.

"It's over, you can't fight anymore." Naruto said.

"Heheh, you'd think that wouldn't ya?" Shinji chuckled.

Shinji stood back up but was putting all of weight on his uninjured leg like Naruto. Shinji's face was now in a permanent grimmace of pain.

"There's no way you can get over to me, you can barely walk." Naruto said.

"Hehe, who needs to walk when I got this?" Shinji taunted and pulled out a grappling hook.

"Oh come on! This is some bull crap!" Naruto yelled.

Shinji smirked and hooked it around Naruto's right leg and pulled him towards himself. Once Naruto was close enough Shinji dropped ontop of him in an attempt to beat him down. Shinji got three good punches to Naruto's jaw and four to his ribs. Naruto leaned up and punched Shinji in the jaw which sent him down onto his back. Not wasting anytime Naruto got onto Shinji and began to rapidly punch his face and body. While trying to block Naruto's punches, Shinji took out a knife from the back of his pants and slashed at Naruto. Naruto rolled off of him and stood back up.

"So that's how we're gonna play huh?" Naruto wheezed.

Reaching into his pants Naruto pulled out his own knife. Shinji lunged forward and slashed at Naruto's shins, barely dodging in time Naruto kicked Shinji across the face and leaped on his back. Naruto plunged the knife into Shinji's back while covering his mouth. Shinji's eyes went wide and he tried to growl out curses.

"Shh, shh! It's almost over, it's almost over." Naruto whispered.

Shinji's eyes went blank and he went limp. Standing up Naruto wiped the blood off the blade and put it back into it's proper holding space. Limping back over to the small shed on the roof he opened the door and found Sakura tied to a chair.

"Sakura?" He said.

Her head lifted up and she looked him in the eyes.

"Naruto!" She squealed. "You're here!"

"Yeah, sorry it took so long. Here hold still while I cut these ropes okay." Naruto ordered.

Sakura nodded with a smile and felt the ropes fall off of her. Standing up so she was level with his chest, her eyes got watery and she tightly wrapped her arms around him.

"Cmon Sakura, let's get you home." Naruto whispered.

"Ye-yeah." Sakura stuttered.

Walking back out of the shed and into the elevator Sakura grabbed his hand in her own and leaned her head on his shoulder. Naruto took his hand out of her's and wrapped his entire arm around her waist pulling her closer. If it wasn't for the fact that they kept moving Sakura could've fallen asleep with her head on Naruto's shoulder.

"You're the best Naruto." She mumbled.

Naruto frowned at her words because he knew that it was a lie, or at least he thought it was. Once they got down into his car he put her down in the back seat so she could get some sleep. He drove her back home and prepared himself for the yelling of a lifetime from her parents. Once he got to her house he took her out of the back seat carrying her bridal style inside, halfway there she wrapped her arms around his neck and snuggled her head into the crook of his neck.

"Oh boy, here we go." Naruto said to himself.

Walking inside he saw Mr and Mrs. Haruno sitting at the kitchen table. Once they both saw them they rushed over as quickly as they could.

"Is she okay?"

"What happened?"

Both of them asked at the sametime.

"She's fine, just tired. I'll take her up to her room." Naruto answered them.

"You're on thin ice Namikaze! Thin ice." Ichizane said rather darkly.

Naruto nodded and walked up to Sakura's room. Once inside he undressed her and put her into her PJs. He tucked her into her bed and kissed her forehead.

"Goodnight Sakura." Naruto mumbled.
