VFSNAKE; I still have one more thing to do, the Temari inclusion, and a real fight for Naruto and Sasuke. Its not far now

Ragnarok; You point out a interesting point there, and as to Naruto, that will occur at the end of the next fight, and after that all that remains, is Anko vs Orochimaru.

Naruhina; As to a fight between regular Ichigo and Naruto...you know I don't know. I'm pretty sure it would get so intense it would become a fight between Nine Tails Naruto and Hollow Ichigo by the end of it.

Harliquin; I do have a habit of that

Animeman; They are Hanyou's, half demons already. I'm not saying they can do it like the Nine Tailed Fox in full form, but at a four tailed level they can

Imagaco; So we have some disagreement about, first time I got that. Ragnarok, you did forget about the Horcrux and Killer Curse

L; I have no intention of doing that, my lemons aren't too good (Note, I did try one recently..)

Wythra; Well, I'm sure he has his reasons

Whose the better skirt chaser; Jiraiya or Shunsui. Who'd win in a conflict, Sage Jiraiya or Shunsui (note, no one knows what his Bankai is, so ignore that) and also, Who'd win, Naruto or Ichigo (No Final Getsuga Tenshou Ichigo)

BEGIN

A large crowd of dead Ninja (Anko's POV)

Hundreds of killed Suna ninja lay in a dead heap around a bored looking Anko, who liked the blood from her hands.

"Well, that's a good number, now where's Snaky?" she heard the sound of shadow travel as Haku appeared behind her.

"Ah, Haku-chan, how did it go?" She looked nervous.

"Well..it went well. The Sound Four and Kidomaru are taken care of. Konan knows about what she is now, and appears to be accepting it. Hinata, Ino, Fu and Yugito are recovering from particularly exhausting fights and Naruto-kun is still alive" Anko frowned.

"Well of course he is, he's down in the lair being explained to that we are his...isn't he" she glared. Haku gulped.

"Well, um...it appears that at some point, he woke up and returned to the fighting" Anko paled...

"WHAT!"

"The problem is, he's fighting by creating a hell lot of shadow clones. They are everywhere fighting. Protecting the Hokage, the Ichiraku's, his friend Konohamaru and his pals, we can't figure out where the real one is!" Anko was barely resisting the urge to kill

"I've should of placed the chain on...Haku, you and Mei are to find Naruto-kun, and if you mess up, well we all will burn for it" she shadow traveled "But I have to find that snake first.

The Top of the Tower (Sasuke's POV)

Sasuke burst forth from the top of the tower, with Kin behind him in the shadows.

She was out of chakra from being attacked by Dosu earlier.

There were the three Sand Siblings, with the cat guy preparing to use some sort of device on an unconscious Gaara

The device was black, with a glowing, flat end like a metal plate, engraved with seals.

"What are you clowns up to?" He demanded. Kankuro had a grin on his face.

"Just the destruction of Konoha once and for all" he smirked "With the foulest of beings" Temari snapped her head at him.

"Kankuro! At least try to be nice, he is still our brother, sort of..." he huffed.

"He is not my brother, and now, HE'S NO LONGER GOING TO BE THAT MOCKERY OF A HUMAN!" he pressed the device into Gaara's stomach...

As a burst of orange chakra emitted out of him like a ruptured water tank.

"GAARA!...KANKURO WHAT HAVE YOU..." the black suited man had a evil smirk, as he extended a stream of chakra threads around his sisters throat.

"He was a failed experiment, and now it ends here. The seal unfastener just needs one more thing to activate, the life of a relative, and your the extra one!" Temari's eyes were wide in shock

"FIRE RELEASE; FIRE BALL JUTSU!" a fireball was blasted at the cat man who just used his other hand to wrap threads around Sasuke's neck. He ducked to avoid the simmering fireball.

"And you, well your not disposable. We could always use the Sharingan..."

"WIND RELEASE; BEAST WAVE PALM!" a wind slice sliced through the theads as Naruto burst up the tower, having run up it.

Literally

"Naruto!" the orange hero glared at Kankuro. Temari lay on the ground behind him, panting weakly.

"You, are, sick!" Kankuro huffed.

"No, I'm a ninja from a clan, unlike some Konoha street urchin. I know that sometimes, you have to sacrifice people for, certain reasons" He frowned "Political power, creating a weapon like Gaara, disposing of a weapon like Gaara..." Naruto glared at the boy with absolute hate.

"You, are disgusting!" he was quivering "Do you know what I'd give, to have a brother! A sister! A FAMILY! And you'd give that up!"

Kankuro huffed "Its not that good, and stop your dreaming you worthless orphan!" Kankuro charged at Naruto, before a sparking hand shot through his stomach.

"Sasuke!" his friend grinned.

"You say you always wanted a brother" he said softly "Well, perhaps you do have one" he removed his hand from the cat suit guy, who collapsed to the ground, bleeding.

Kankuro glared up at the three in front of him "I'm sorry to interupt this mushy event, but I'm afraid, that your too late!" his blood was approaching the orange coccoon that was Gaara.

"After all, I'm dying, so let the unsealing commence!"

"The what...!"

Kankuro's spark left him, well if he was a robot anyway, as the blood all was pulled into the body of Gaara, that began to peal away with intense chakra lights. A blinding orange light filled the area, blinding Kin, Temari, Naruto and Sasuke.

But as the light cleared, they found a giant sand raccoon holding onto the side of the tower like King Kong.

"I'm FREE!" the tailed beast bellowed loudly. Temari paled...

"Gaara...NO!" the beast glared at her, as a burst of sand flew from it, ready to strike her down, as a silver blade slashed it in half. Naruto stood over her, the Tanto in hand

However, the sand reformed, lashing around Temari like two ropes.

"ARGH!"

Naruto sliced the tanto through the sand again, this time downward to restrict its reformation. Ugly red stripes covered Temari's waist now, fresh blood dripping down.

Her fan lay on the ground a distance away, as Sasuke looked over to where Kin was. Body flickering over, he hissed

"Get out of here!" he hissed "Its not safe"

Kin shook her head "But you..." he frowned.

"I can handle myself, your out of chakra" he said gently. She frowned before reluctantly leaving.

Meanwhile, Temari closed her eyes, as the metal fan returned to her hand.

At Naruto's shocked look, she smirked "Magnetisim release, family thing" she sliced a wind blast at the racoon, whose arm lost a few hundred grains of sand, before it swiped with his paw at them.

The three ninja avoided being crushed like the top of the tower they were all in as the beast blasted a giant wind ball at them.

"Fire Release; Fire Ball Jutsu!"

"Wind Release; Vacume Wave!" the two attacks collided into the wind ball, that promptly exploded. The three landed on top of a tree, as the Sand raccoon roared.

"What sort of monster would do that sort of thing" Naruto gulped. To think that they had devices that could do that to you...and by your own brother.

Sasuke suddenly was reminded of his old view of Itachi.

Temari frowned "We have to stop him, somehow" she frowned "Gaara...why did it have to be you?" She drew her fan

"WIND SCYTHE!" a razor wind sliced into the beast, but it barerly made a scratch as it turned on them

It blasted a giant sand arm at them, extended by thousands of grains of sand. The three ninja jumped on top of the arm as they prepared jutsus

"WATER RELEASE; VIOLENT WATER WAVE!"

"FIRE RELEASE; DRAGON FLAME JUTSU!"

"WIND SCYTHE!" the three elements smashed a hole through the sand body, that quickly repaired itself.

The sand roe up around them, as Temari and Sasuke body flickered away, Sasuke grabbing Naruto by the scruff to pull him along.

They returned to another tree, annoyed.

"How do you beat this guy" Temari frowned.

"You don't, its a Tailed Beast...no where as powerful as the Nine Tails, but still..."

Naruto frowned "Wait, why are you helping us, your from Suna..." she had tears in her eyes

"Tactless" Sasuke muttered

"My brother tried to kill me so I'd unleash that!" the Shukaku roared "My father killed my mother to force my youngest brother to carry that burden, and they treated him like a monster" Naruto was not liking the comparisons this was creating to his life

"Then he got pushed off the deep end, and became a monster, and now he's gone and that thing is out!"

"KILL!"

Naruto stood up, and stared at the monster in front of him

He turned to look behind at the two "You know, its scary how alike I am to Gaara. I'm like him, I have a tailed beast in me..."

Temari looked at him shocked, while Sasuke didn't look that shocked, as if he already knew

"I'd have hoped that, if someone like me had friends and family when they were young, it would make them better" he reflected, thinking of Yugito and Fu "But it appears that hatred is widespread. Even if it isn't obvious, it will be unleashed with the slightest provocation" Naruto gripped his hands together

"Sasuke, one day I'll see to it that everyone can see, that even with all the hate directed at someone, they can still rise to something great" he smirked "When I become Hokage! The Yondiame became famous for his defeat of the Kyubbi, when he sealed it in me, so perhaps I can become someone of fame and not infamy around here, by defeating that over sized Raccoon, and saving Gaara's honor" he said with finality as the Shukaku roared, a black mass forming at its mouth.

"The tailed beast ball!" Temari gulped. Naruto frowned, as he looked over at them

"Get out of here, I'll stop it!" he drew the Tanto, as he teleported to the beast.

"YOU DOBE!" Sasuke yelled "WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING!" he closed his eyes as he appeared over the powerful ball, the tanto glowing pure light.

"PURITY SURGE!" he sent as much chakra as he could into the blade, before sinking it into the tailed beast ball.

What resulted, was a huge explosion, that struck the entire forest of death with a giant energy wave.

"NARUTO!"
