Legend of the Dragoons: The New Generation

Chapter Two

Inside Naruto's mind

"So….You've come to finally settle things with me" The Kyuubi spoke with a stoic tone in its voice as its crimson eyes stared down at the man below him, knowing full well what the man's answer was but it was surprised when the man simply smiled.

"No. you are not the reason I'm here but this is not a bad situation either" The man as he sheathed his blade and sat down on the ground, in front of the golden cage the Kyuubi was trapped inside of.

"Then what are you doing here?" Kyuubi asked in slight confusion but he would never show this to the man in front of him. The man let a faint scowl form on his face and said the words that made the Kyuubi's world fall around him. "He has returned."

"This cannot be!" The Kyuubi roared out in anger as it stood up, only to be forced down by the chains that were bound to him but this only made him madder, shocking the man in front of him.

"I wish I was wrong but I felt it. It's faint and it's broken around the entire world but he's return." The man spoke with a dark tone in his voice after quickly recovering from his shock.

"I thought you could defeat him with your band of "warriors"! Looks like I placed my trust in the wrong hands after all" The man scowled deeply and replied with a shout "We did defeat him thanks to your dragoon stone and the dragon buster you gave to me and Rose but somehow he was able to survive it."

The Kyuubi scowled while baring its teeth, the former calm it had was completely gone. "We must defeat him this time, no matter what the cost. I will not let this man ruin my utopia once again!" Before Kyuubi could continue its rant, it felt something….evil in the air and the man felt it as well.

Something big was going to happen and they didn't know the outcome but somehow, they both knew it would affect not only them, but the entire world as well.

Outside Naruto's mind

"Mizuki-sensei! I did it!" Naruto shouted excitedly as he marched over to him, the forbidden scroll in his arms. "I learned a technique from the forbidden scroll" Naruto said as he looked up at his sensei with a wide smile on his face which Mizuki didn't return.

Naruto noticed that his sensei didn't give him that kind smile he always did and felt a chill run down his spine. "Mizuki-sensei, what's wrong? I did exactly what I told you. Aren't you proud of me?" Naruto asked in confusion as Mizuki continued to stare at him with an unreadable look on his face.

Mizuki let an evil smirk form on his face before said "Proud? Of you? Why would I be proud of something as hideous as you?"

Naruto took a step back in shock, not believing what his sensei just said. "What did you say, Mizuki-sensei?" Naruto asked while Mizuki's cold and uncaring onyx eyes fell onto Naruto's fearful blue eyes and replied "Why would I be proud of something as hideous as you?"

Naruto felt a cold chill run down his spine as Mizuki took a step towards him, watching in horror as Mizuki pulled out a kunai.

"What are you d-doing Mizuki-sensei?" Naruto asked with a sense of dread forming in his heart as he took a few more steps back, trying to make sure there was a few feet between them but for each step Naruto took backwards, Mizuki took another step forwards.

"Simple" Mizuki shortly replied before lunging at Naruto, shouting "Getting ride of the demon!" Naruto was quick enough to roll out of the way of Mizuki's lunge and started to run as fast as he could, screaming in terror.

Mizuki grinned darkly and quickly scrambled to his feet to chase after the terrified young boy. After a few minutes of running, Mizuki stopped at another opening in the forest and sniffed the air as if he was a tiger looking for its prey.

Mizuki let a wild, evil smirk appear on his face as he slowly pulled a large shuriken off of his back and held it in his right hand, shifting his eyes slowly around the large opening and slowly said "Come on out Naruto…."

Naruto was hiding behind a tree a few feet behind Mizuki, his breathing coming out hollow and shuddered. Mizuki tilted his head to the side and smirked, hearing the shuddered breathing of his prey and shouted "There's no point in hiding anymore Naruto!" before turning around and threw his large Shuriken towards the tree Naruto was hiding in.

Naruto heard a whizzing sound coming towards the tree and quickly dove for the ground, managing to barely avoid the large shuriken taking off his head.

It instead gave him an impromptu haircut, making his cut hair fall down on him like it was raining. Naruto quickly stood up and started to run into the forest again, desperate to get away from the man that was trying to kill him but he didn't get far due to a three kunai being imbedded in his back.

Naruto fell to the ground face first mid run and tried to crawl away but immediately screamed in pain as Mizuki kicked him in the stomach, making him turn over on his back which made him scream in more pain due to the kunai embedded in his back.

"Why are you doing this?" Naruto screamed in terror as Mizuki stood over him with an evil grin on his face. "You see Naruto, I have plan and in order for this plan to be completed, you're going to have to die but look at it this way, you won't be missed."

Mizuki lifted the large Shuriken in the air, going to stab Naruto with it but yelled out in pain when he felt a kunai pierce his back. With a hiss, He turned his head to the side and saw the one person he hated more than the blond brat that was on the ground behind him and that person was Umino Iruka.

"Ah…Iruka…I knew you would arrive sooner or later" Mizuki started as he turned around, ignoring the blond boy's presence entirely. Despite the pain he was in, Naruto attempted to scramble his way off the ground and run off into the forest but Mizuki grabbed his leg and tossed the wounded blond boy at Iruka, who managed to catch him before dodging the kick that was aimed at his head.

Iruka rolled away from Mizuki and slammed back first into the tree where he rapidly took out a three kunai and threw each of them at the silver haired traitor in succession. Mizuki let the three hit him in his chest and simply smirked as he continued to march towards them.

"Do you think this hurts me?" Mizuki yelled out before tearing the three kunai out of his chest then ripping his chūnin vest off as well as his shirt, revealing his large, scarred chest to the two. Iruka noticed Mizuki's pace increasing as he got closer to them and managed to roll away before Mizuki's entire right arm went right through the tree as if it was paper

Iruka rolled onto his knees and faced his former childhood friend and gasped in shock at the sheer strength the man had and simply asked "What happened to you?" Mizuki turned his head while rubbing his right wrist in annoyance and gave Iruka the most cruelest smirk Iruka had even seen and replied "When you work for powerful man like Orochimaru-sama, it can do wonders for you."

Iruka slowly stood on his own two feet and gently put Naruto on the ground with a scowl on his face. "Naruto…Get the scroll and return it to the Hokage" Iruka said, keeping his eyes on the silver haired man in front of him. Naruto stared at his sensei in shock and yelled out "I can't leave you here alone Iruka-sensei! You saw what he did to that tree!"

"Naruto, don't argue with me! Go now!" Naruto looked hurt for a split second before he darted off into the forest to get the scroll, leaving the two men alone. Mizuki gave Iruka a smirk while Iruka stepped into a fighting stance.

"You've changed Mizuki" Iruka spoke softly while keeping his eyes on Mizuki. Despite all of this, Iruka still felt a small amount of love for hit longtime friend but said friend's at his smirk seemed to grow wider at what Iruka said.

"I never changed Iruka; this is who I really am." Iruka closed his eyes and replied "Then everything we've been through…everything between me, you and Tsubaki…The missions, the confessions….Everything. It was a lie?"

Mizuki's smirk faltered a bit before returning full force. "Of course." Iruka opened his eyes and scowled at this man in front of him. This man in front of him was no longer his friend but now a traitor in his eyes.

"Mizuki….When everyone told me of all of the evil things you've done, I never believed them. I stood up for you! I protected you! I risked my career as an ANBU for you! But now as I look at the true you, the you that has been hidden from this world, I was wrong. I now believe you are every bit of evil everyone said you were and now in the name of Kohona…" Iruka's eyes flashed platinum blue for a split second before settling back on his brown eyes. "I will bring you to justice!"

Mizuki let out a sinister laugh while keeping his form loose like the wind and said "Don't get so righteous with me Iruka. You've done your fair share of evil things in this world. All I did was simply in good business." Iruka scowled at this.

This man thought that killing a fellow shinobi, tricking an innocent child to steal the forbidden scroll for Orochimaru, one of the most infamous traitors of Kohona and then trying to frame said child for all of this was for good business?

"You are truly insane" Iruka said darkly while the two began to circle each other, ready to strike at a moments notice. "Me? Insane? No Iruka…this is just my correct thinking!" Mizuki shouted before the two clashed.

Xanatos: Well….Things has broken down well between Iruka and Mizuki. Who is the mysterious man that has appeared before Kyuubi and how do these two beings know each other? Find out in the next chapter. Remember to review!
