I Don't own Naruto

Chapter 24: One VS Nine

Suddenly Sasuke jumped down onto the stadium floor next to Hinata and Naruto.

Naruto smiled and said, "We stop him as team seven."

Hinata said, "Good your here lets calm him down."

Gaara sent a barrage of sand Shiriken forcing the three to jump out of the way the sand hit the dome wall creating small marks in it.

Minato looked down and thought, "if they continue here they could spill into the village."

Minato shouted, "everyone use the transportation jutsu and get all of us out of the village!"

All white hooded ninja nodded making the hand signs they transported Gaara team seven and themselves out of the village now they stood in a massive forest.

Mira said, "good now we don't have to worry about any villagers getting in the way let's stop him."

Hiashi suggested, "Why not let those three try first they seem to be confidant."

Minato agreed, "That might be a good idea everyone be ready to move in if they lose the situation."

Everyone nodded as they looked back to the genin fighting.

Gaara sent his sand arm towards Sasuke who slammed a chidori right into it only to be forced out of the way as the fingers tried to close around on him. Sasuke proceeded to send a barrage of fire balls towards Gaara who flicked them away with another Barrage of sand Shiriken Hinata arrived in front of Sasuke using rotation she blocked the attack completely.

Gaara screamed, "MY Pray!"

Flashback

Gaara stood in front of his now dead uncle who tried to assassinate Gaara he screamed as sand swirled around and engraved a permanent tattoo on his head meaning love. Gaara let the Shukaku spirit out as he cried suddenly a woman grabbed him and hugged him closely he felt crying on his shoulder he looked up to see a woman she had long brown hair and brown eyes and two purple marks on her cheeks.

The woman asked, "its ok Gaara call him back I know you can sweaty,"

Gaara crying managed to pull the Shukaku back into him as this woman held him close not letting him go.

Gaara asked, "Why?"

The woman answered, "because no child should be treated like this Gaara if you want I could train you to become stronger than these ninja here I could teach you so much and help you."

Gaara asked, "Why."

The woman smiled and said, "Because I can freely do this no mission I want to help you Gaara."

Gaara continued to cry into Rin's boobs rubbing his face in them even more wiping the tears away causing the woman to laugh. Gaara looked up tears still running down his face.

The woman said, "call me Raven Gaara will you accept me as your guardian who will love and protect you with every ounce of my life."

Gaara nodded and berried his head in Raven's bosoms again he slowly drifted to sleep. As he felt the warmth of a heart beat

Gaara slowly awoke a few days later to see Raven smiling at him. He slowly sat up to see he was in a small house he looked around to see his father talking to raven suddenly he realized sand was surrounding Raven creating a shield around her.

Raven smiled and said, "it's ok Gaara we are just talking go back to sleep the Kazakage was just leaving right?"

The Kazakage looked at Raven then the boy and said, "You haven't heard the last of this!"

Raven said, "I can call Shinato here at any given moment so try me!"

The Kazakage froze and shouted, "Get out of my village!"

Raven said, "Fine I will leave and I will take Gaara or I could ask Shinato I'm sure he would love to hear how your treating your own son."

The Kazakage said, "Fine you can both stay."

The Kazakage turned around and left the house

Raven said, "Gaara in a few hours we could start your ninja training if you want."

Gaara nodded.

Raven jeered, "come on crack a smile please."

Flashback end

Naruto moved behind Gaara and slammed a kunai at the base of the sand tail only to be sent flying back by Gaara's sand claw. Naruto grinned as the tag on the edge of the kunai exploded sending Gaara flying crashing into even more trees. Sasuke charged towards Gaara with another Chidori and aimed for his head as he staggered up Sasuke was suddenly pinned to a massive sand claw he was sent crashing through two trees and was out cold as he was trapped on the third tree.

Hinata sent a few water bullets at Sasuke freeing him from being crushed by the sand claw Hinata caught Sasuke and placed him on the tree she stood next to him as Naruto stood in front of them both.

Hinata said, "I will look after Sasuke Naruto deal with Gaara."

Naruto nodded as Gaara screamed, "I feel alive!"

Gaara sent a barrage of sand shiriken towards Naruto who smiled as they seemed to of stopped short of hitting him

Shinato Suggested, "How about we show him our demon chakra armour."

Naruto nodded as his chakra cloak became visible as it retracted from making a dome around him. Naruto lifted his hand up and five chakra tips shot towards Gaara who used sand to stop the chakra claws only for them to flick upwards letting off a large pulse of wind chakra the attack sent Gaara flying backwards.

Flashback

Raven smiled at Gaara as he made a perfect sand clone of himself she ran up and hugged Gaara.

Raven smilled and encouraged, "Good work Gaara now lets practice your offensive and defensive attacks…. Whoever is hiding behind that rock come out now or else."

A girl came around the rock she looked at Gaara and blushed. The girl was the same age as Gaara then looked at Raven.

Raven asked, "Do you want to train with us and Gaara I'm sure he would like it."

Raven looked at Gaara to see him smiling at Matsuri. As soon as realized she was looking at him though he turned away.

Flashback end

Gaara slowly stood up looking at Naruto he put his hand on his head he screamed in pain as the sand slowly grew over his body he slowly grew bigger as well. Gaara opened his mouth as a massive torrent of sand shot out sending Naruto flying backwards. Naruto slowly stood up as sand surrounded Naruto's feet Naruto bit his fingure and made a summoning jutsu freeing him from sand coffin. Gaara then started to transform into a full version of the Shukaku as he sat on top of the demon's head.

Naruto sat on a giant toad

Naruto asked, "Hello Gamabunta can you help me beat this guy?"

Gamabunta answered, "very well I will help."

The Shukaku sent a massive air bullet at the toad who dodged to the right then was forced to jump high into the air to avoid another bullet. Gamabunta sent a massive water bullet down stopping the third and fourth attack. The toad spewed oil at the Shukaku while Naruto made a mini fire ball that combined with the oil setting the sand Shukaku a light causing it to scream. The smoke slowly vanished into the air leaving a smouldering pile of sand that slowly started to move recreating the Shukaku with Gaara asleep half in sand on the top.

Gamabunta said, "We have to wake him."

Naruto said, "He just needs a good smack to the head."

Gamabunta jeered, "Good idea but I don't have any fangs or claws to hold him down."

Naruto retorted, "we need to do transformation into something with that."

Gamabunta sighed saying, "but I am not good with Tranformation… ok here we go."

Naruto shouted, "Wait! Fangs and claws fangs and claws."

Gamabunta charged towards the Shukaku as Naruto made a double transformation the two transformed into the nine tail fox. The two grabbed a hold of Shukaku and managed to pin him down on the ground the two transformed back to there original self as Naruto jumped off Gamabunta and landed on the Shukaku while Gamabunta jumped away dodging another attack.

Naruto charged towards Gaara and slammed a left hook to Gaara's face waking him up. The sand still holding its shape. Naruto felt sand slowly surround him Naruto using the demon chakra to propel himself forwards freeing him. The sand grabbed Naruto trying to pull him further away but Naruto pushed forwards managing to head butt Gaara right between the eyes the sand started to crumble as the two fell to the ground both landing on the top of trees looking at each other.

Gaara said, "Thank… you for stopping me."

Naruto sighed and said, "Your welcome I will get the Hokage to have another look the seal I guess we only fixed it enough so he could sleep."

Minato arrived smiling and said, "Sorry Gaara can you forgive me for not doing it a hundred per cent now I know what I need to do to fix it."

Gaara smiled and nodded thinking back

Flashback

Gaara looked at Raven who smiled as she walked him and Matsuri to meet hiss team

Raven stopped Gaara and said, "If you ever go to the leaf and see the fourth Hokage he will fix the seal of yours so you can sleep without fear of letting the Shukaku out which should calm down the rest of the seal if not you might need to ask him again."

Gaara smiled and thanked Raven he walked away to meet his brother and sister along with his new sensei.

Flashback end

Gaara asked, "Is Matsuri with y ou?"

Temari smiled and answered, "yes your girlfriend is here Gaara."

Matsuri blushed as she came out from behind Temari.

Gaara growled, "Temari…"

Hinata smiled and jeered, "protective off your girl I bet she likes that a lot eh Naruto."

Naruto warned, "Nobody messes with my Hinata."

Hinata along with the other spectaters laughed at this

Hiashi asked, "So Hinata Do you feel better now?"

Hinata smiled and answered, "Yes I feel great like all my troubles are gone."

Minato explained, "That's because it has during the fight you poured your soul into every attack… and with that you vented out your emotions and now you feel better because of it."

Hinata smiled and said, "I do feel better no anger, sadness fear all of it played my mind now its gone."

Itachi smiled lifting Sasuke up as Naruto jumped over and hugged Hinata

Naruto whispered, I am glad you feel better Hinata."

Jiraiya smiled as he watched the two hug each other through his telescope

Jiraiya said, "Ah young love I am so using this…. Kushina.."

Kushina Warned, "If I see that in those books I will personally ask Itachi to light your balls on fire."

Jiraiya gulped and nodded as Kushina vanished,

Hiashi

Hiashi smiled as he walked his Daughter to the estate Hinata looked up at Hiashi smiling

Hinata asked, "Father since I made I t to the semi-finals does that mean I still get to be clan head when im older?"

Hiashi looked at his daughter and asked, "Why do you ask that?"

Hinata answered, "Because I keep losing to Hanabi when the elders and you watch."

Hiashi sighed and answered, "I see yes you will be clan head as long as I am in charge I know when you lead you will bring both families closer through your kindness and that's what makes me proud."

Hinata smiled and hugged her father who hugged her smiling his eye twitched he looked over to a tree branch to see Mira smiling at them."

Mira teased, "Can I have a hug too."

Hiashi activated his buyakugan and said, "Sure but you will be out cold for a week."

All three laughed at the joke

Mira said, "Right to business Hinata I need to teach you a special seal."

Hinata asked, "Why?"

Mira jumped down her head inches away from Hinata's ear she whispered, "its to do with the curse mark on Sasuke's shoulder."

Hinata nodded and asked, "So what does the seal do?"

Mira smiled laughing she answered, "I don't know Itachi will tell us when he is ready."

Hiashi said, "Hinata Mira was taught by Shinato she knows a lot about our clan jutsu and can help you a lot."

Mira smiled and said, "If the elders give you trouble let me know I will fix there wagon." An evil grin spread over her face.

Hiashi laughed and thought, "Shinato retuns Mira edition ha-ha" Hiashi laughed

Hiashi asked, "Mira would you like to stay for dinner I'm sure some of the main family would like that?"

Mira smiled and answered, "Sure I will bring Itachi… Sasuke might not want to chakra exhaustion."

Hiashi smiled and said, "ok see you two later"
