Chapter 11: For better, or for worse?
(Italics: Thoughts/Flashbacks/Dream sequence. Bold: Title and Kyubi's/Demon's/Inner Naruto's Speech.)
Ino sighed and waited for Naruto as she leaned against a tree, she was wearing a purple Tank Top, a low-cut purple skirt and her Ninja shoes. Ino knew she was a few minutes early from the time they had agreed to meet but still she was impatient. Recently she had developed some feelings for the boy she had yet to understand, she thought that this night might be an opportunity for her to sort out her feelings, little did she know a deadly looking figure hidden within the darkness was watching her every move…
Naruto was walking down the dirt path that went all the way from his house to his and Ino's meeting spot at the entrance to Rosemary Park. After about ten minutes he made it there, he didn't see her so he walked around and looked for Ino.
Ino kept a lookout for Naruto but he had not arrived yet. Ino turned and her eyes met with a Demonic pair of eyes, the evil figure grinned maliciously as he said: "Well Hello there…" Ino's eyes widened in fear as she let out an earsplitting scream.
Naruto heard the scream and immediately took off in the direction of it's source as he thought frantically: No! Ino!
Naruto came into a clearing and a figure that could only be described as a Demon was hovering over the ground with a powerful looking pair of wings. Underneath his left arm was the unconscious form of Ino with a look of absolute terror embedded into her facial expression.
"Who are you and what are you doing with Ino!?" The Demonic figure laughed at Naruto and pointed his finger at him as he said in a dark voice: "Alright this is how this is going to work Uzumaki Brat… I'm going to take the girl and hold her captive… And the only way I'm going to let her live and return to you is if you release this accursed Seal on my body."
Naruto looked up at the Demon in confusion and frustration as he yelled out: "Seal!? What the hell are you talking about?! I don't know anything about a fucking seal!"
The demonic looking figure responded by narrowing his blood red slits and glared down on Naruto as he shot: "Don't play games with me! You are the last of the Uzumaki Clan and the only one capable of releasing your father's Seal! But seeing how weak and clueless you pathetic Humans are I wouldn't be surprised if your Father was arrogant enough to not pass on any of his knowledge on to you…
Naruto glared at his enemy in anger and rage as red chakra began to pour out of his body. Naruto closed his eyes shut as he could sense his opponent's enormous level of power, he clenched his fists hard as he thought: Damn! I don't know if I can take him… From the back of his mind Blood Lust Naruto came behind Naruto and put his Kyubi powered claw on Naruto's shoulder as he said: "Naruto take a break… Let me take care of this scum…." Naruto nodded and felt his consciousness leaving his body and going into a temporary sleep.
Naruto's figure opened his eyes and a bright concentration of fiery purple chakra erupted from his body. The Neon green dots around his pupil began to rotate and he began to draw more chakra into his body as he made a cross hand symbol and created a Ego Clone representing the power of Light Naruto right before creating a small army of regular shadow clones. Blood Lust Naruto lunged at his enemy with about a hundred shadow clones backing him up. With one swift slash of the demonic figure's razor sharp claws Naruto's Shadow clone army was obliterated.
When the smoke cleared the demon flew high above the ground and held Ino's body by the neck as he roared: "You don't want to cooperate?! Fine I'll snap this girl's neck!"
Ino screamed for a moment but then a grin spread across her face as her figure disappeared in a puff of smoke. The Demon enraged look down to see a shadow clone running toward the village with his hostage. He flew after the clone but Blood Lust Naruto and Light Naruto jumped up in front of his path as they roared in sync: "We're not going to let you touch her!" Both Ego Clones charged up a rasengan composed of fiery neon green and purple chakra and they lunged forward with their spiraling vortexes of they roared: "RASENGAN!"
There was an explosion of many colored chakras and the demon-like being flew upward as it roared: "Don't think this is the end, Uzumaki Brat!" And with those words he was gone leaving an enraged Naruto. Naruto's mind entered his body and a wave of rage and anger filled him as he yelled out: "Coward! Get back here!"
Light Naruto laid Ino down gently on the ground, Naruto picked her up bridal style and made his way back to the village to the Konoha Hospital as he thought: I'm so sorry Ino… If only I had been stronger… I should have been able to protect you… What was all the training up until now for?! Damn it!
Naruto called forth a small amount of the Kyubi's Chakra and concentrated it into the soles of his feet and took off running as fast as his body would take him, he arrived at the hospital and busted in he said aloud: "Someone please help, this girl needs medical treatment!" Ino was immediately taken from his arms and he left her in their care because he knew for a fact she had not received any near-fatal injuries, he was deeply troubled by the words of his opponent and only knew of one person that could help him solve this puzzle… Him and Tsunade needed to have a little chat…
Tsunade had just finished a substantial amount of paperwork in her standards and was a bit proud of herself for not just smashing her desk and burning the paperwork, one big responsibility about being Hokage is not snapping and going crazy, it influences the villagers. She sighed and opened up a brand new bottle of Sake she was saving for a special occasion. A moment after she had poured herself a glass Naruto bursts into the room with an angry look in his eye as he said: "Tsunade around five minutes before eight o clock Ino was abducted by this strange creature."
Tsunade's eyes widened in shock as she asked: "Some creature? As in it wasn't an enemy Shinobi?"
Naruto shook his head and a dark look appeared on his face as he said: "I fought that thing… Trust me it's not Human… It had a powerful pair of demon-like wings and bandage wrapped around it's whole body with this strange seal embedded in his chest… In fact he said that the reason was for revenge and in all honesty I have never encountered anything like it in my life…"
Tsunade nodded and asked: "Well Naruto if you've never met this creature then why does it want revenge on you alone?"
Naruto shook his head again and replied: "It was my father, it said my father put a curse on him and only I, the last of the Uzumaki Clan can break it, and until I do Ino's life is in constant danger…"
With this comment a smile appeared on Tsunade's face, Naruto noticed this and eyes her curiously as he asked: "What is it?"
She shifted her facial expression back to a serious one as she replied: "Never you mind Naruto, but on a more serious note I wasn't completely honest with you when I told you that letter from your father was the only thing he left you…"
Naruto felt a twinge of anger at this comment but let it go as he asked: "What is it?"
Tsunade's smiled and said: "Your clan's scroll, if you're going to beat that demon you need to train in the ways of the Uzumaki Clan, The Shinobi Seal Masters."
A/N: Hey readers thought I'd surprise you all with action replacing the romance you all thought was coming, don't worry though the love is coming just remember I'm trying to make the relationship realistic, I hope that twist was enjoyable to all of you and to all Hardcore Naruto/Ino fans I apologize for the delay I just don't want to write a rushed romance.
Another thing I wanted to ask you guys was what was the name for the branch of Jutsu that use sealing techniques? I mean Ninjutsu is Ninja techniques, Genjutsu is Illusion Techniques, and Kinjutsu is forbidden techniques so what's sealing Jutsus called? If anyone knows hit me up in a private message, anyway REVIEW if you care! Peace! - DemonicLove555
