Chapter 30 Talks
Naruto just stood there looking down at the book or so it seemed, he could tell where the three young foxes where around him. Seth made a dash to the woods followed by Cade. For a moment Vail just stood there before she too moved into the woods.
"Interesting." thought Naruto as he flipped the page of the book which was information on his role as leader and information on his team. "Seth Namikaze….lightening chakra type, just like Dad. Third of nine in his class."
Naruto side stepped as Cade once again tried to get one of the bells by himself. Came around again only to get slammed into the ground by Naruto. Naruto then slowly walked away as Cade got up anger then before getting back up. "You know straight forward attacks are a pretty basic plan."
'No human is that fast." stated Cade
"Fast?" laughed Naruto "I was walking and a chunin could dodge that attack."
"Cade Olvir….heir to the one of the most powerful packs in the village. Top in his class having two tails for almost two years six months ahead of the next member of his class." Read Naruto as Cade charged forward only to have his hand grabbed by Naruto before twisting it around and pinning it to his back as he kept reading the report. "Fire style chakra….but with lots of report about talking back to his instructors."
"You know for being the so called best in your class…you know nothing. Maybe I should send you back right now and save us all some time.' Said Naruto as Cade struggled against him however Naruto heard a slight breathing behind him. Instantly he flipped over Cade landing on his feet.
"What are you afraid of me now!" yelled Cade as Naruto's eyes focused. He quickly picked up some dirt throwing it toward Cade. "What was that for?"
"That." said Naruto as the dirt landing on a figure behind him, but to the naked eye it seemed that no one was there but the dirt was sticking to the shoulder. A second later a purple vixen with a single tail "Invisibility justu, impressive Vail."
"Hiding like a weakling isn't impressive." snapped Cade "It is a move of a weakling."
"That weakling as you call it almost got her hands on one of those bells." answered Naruto "Very good Vail."
Vail raised her head with a slight smile.
"Now you still have two and a half hours until the time limit is up. I suggest you get to work." Said Naruto as Cade growled before moving away followed by Vail.
"I wonder how long it will take Seth to try to get a bell and if they will ever figure out that they need to work together." Thought Naruto as he sat down on a rock "I wonder if Dad ever told Seth about this, I mean if Kakashi did say his sensei did the same test to him and that was Dad."
Sakura Haruno walked through the halls of the hospitals, she looked into different rooms only to see the kids who had been adopted the day before had started to transform. The younger ones looked almost totally demon now.
"So aren't you going to go downstairs and watch the next group of humans get chosen?" asked Caci as the snake fan girl of Sasuke looked at her.
"Why don't you take care of that, don't really need a doctor for that." said Sakura as she looked though one of the windows toward a room filled with kids most of whom where transforming. "Besides if something medical something happens I will be needed up here."
"Alright." stated Caci as she slithered away. Sakura didn't even bother to take on her human form as she entered the room.
"Doctor Sakura." said Dacia as Sakura looked at the transforming girl, she now had red fur over most of her body with a lighter patch of red running from under her neck to her belly button. Her hands and feet where still human and still was her entire face. No tail had grown in but her green eyes had turned to slits.
"Hello Dacia how are you and your friends doing?" asked Sakura as she looked around at the other girls. One was now totally snake from the waist down but still human from the waste up. Another one was in a slimier state to Dacia only with a single tail growing out; Sakura already knew she was becoming a wolf. The last girl hadn't been adopted yet and was still human.
"Great." said Dacia as the other girls nodded their head. 'My Mom and Dad already stopped by and went downstairs to get some breakfast for us."
"Why didn't you go with them?" asked Sakura
"Well Lin is in the next group to go down." explained Dacia as Sakura looked toward the only girl who was still human. "She is my best friend and I don't know what she will become and I may go to my new home tonight."
"So you want to spend some time with her." explained Sakura
"Ya…we both want to be the same thing but family means more." explained Dacia "Do you have friends in other races?"
"My friends are human." explained Sakura
"Do you want your friends to be demon too?" asked Dacia
"Do we want our friends to be demons?" asked Inner Sakura as she thought of her friends, Ino, Sai, Shikamaru, Temari, team guy and the rest of her class.
Sakura was saved as Dacia's adopted parents walked into the room.
"We brought you some breakfast." said her new mom
"Thanks…mom." said Dacia with a smile
"Doctor Haruno?" asked her new father
"Yes." said Sakura
"When can she go home?" asked Laban
"If she finish turning by four tonight which is possible then she can." explained Sakura "But if she hasn't finished then she will have to wait another day."
"Well when this is all done you have a free diner at our stand for you and your family." said Laban
"That isn't needed." said Sakura
"You help give us a family." said Aala "We may not be the most fantasy stand but we have some of the best food in the village."
"Well I was thinking of trying to find a place to take my boyfriend his birthday is on the tenth but I need to see what his mom is planning." said Sakura
"Boyfriend, you mean mate in waiting.' said Aala
"Sorry, mix up." explained Sakura
"Well we would love to have you two." said Laban
It had been an hour and yet no one had tried to get the bells from Naruto's belt, Naruto was just sitting on the rock his eyes scanning the nearby woods.
"Seth is trying to sneak up behind me." thought Naruto as he heard the grass compress under his brother's feet. "Cade is to my right….I wonder why they don't go up into the trees? Also I can just detect Vail to my left…she is very good in stealth."
"Well I better go have some fun." thought Naruto as he jumped away.
"Where did he go?" asked Seth as he looked for his brother from behind cover, he had planned this move for ten minutes. He would come at him from behind and too the right then while his brother fought with him, he would use one of his tails to grab both bells. That way Cade would be sent back to the war college. Seth took a deep breath as he let his nose guide him, slowly he caught his brother's scent, suddenly he it flood his nose as he looked up at the tree. There hanging upside down by his feet was his brother.
"Hay Seth.' said Naruto with a smile
Across the field Cade was scanning the area for Naruto all the while cursing at the idea that his pack trainer was not only a mutt half breed demon but now he had the audacity to appear to them as a human. Suddenly Naruto came out woods with Seth trying to attack him. Seth was trying to punch him only to have every punch blocked with easy by Naruto.
"Fight me!" yelled Seth as he noticed that Naruto was only using on hand to block his attacks. Naruto grabbed his brother's wrist stopping his attack.
"Listen Seth yelling won't make it happen." stated Naruto as he suddenly tackled his brother as a massive ball of fire passed just inches above them.
"I have the bell." stated Cade as he ran up and reached for the bell only to get punched hard in the gut by Naruto sending him flying into a nearby tree with a creaked rib.
Seth looked toward his brother who was now standing over Cade, he no longer appeared human he was in his fox form; the fur on his back was burnt from the fire attack.
'Seth are you alright?" asked Vail as she appeared beside Seth, making sure he was ok.
"Ya." said Seth as he looked at how mad his brother was, it reminded him at the time his Dad caught him staying out all night for a festival.
"What is wrong with you?' snapped Naruto as his twelve tails moved behind him faster than they had ever had before.
"I need a bell.' stated Cade
"The bells mean nothing.' stated Naruto as he reached for the bells which had fallen to the ground. "They are just a tool…I was testing your teamwork and you all failed."
"Does that mean we are going back to school?' asked Vail
"No, teamwork takes a long time to grow but I wanted to see if you had any." Explained Naruto "Seth you sat back and planned like you should do when given the chance but you need to work with your other teammates, Vail you did the best your stealth justus are very good next time try to use them along with a teammate's attack instead of just seeing an opening and going for it."
"I tried but Cade said no and I couldn't find Seth." Explained Vail as Naruto smiled before looking toward Cade. "Now you Cade, are a self centered person and you attacked your own teammate."
'So?" asked Cade "Not like he is my equal?"
"You are the same as Seth, Vail and every other fox in this village. Doesn't matter if you have a single tail or 15, you have to respect everyone." stated Naruto
"I am a Olvir pack member and pure blood I am above you." stated Cade
"No, see in…." started Naruto as he mentally reworded the quote from Kakashi "the military breaking the rules are trash but those who abounded and betray their teammates are worst then trash and if you don't shape up I will be sending you back to school."
"You don't have that power." stated Cade "My pack has been leaders of the General Assembly."
"My pack is on the high council or did you forget that?" asked Naruto as Cade eyes widened.
"Vail can you make sure that he makes it back to the medics." said Naruto as Vail went to help her teammate up only to get refused help. He walked away with Vail a few steps behind leaving Seth with his brother.
"Are you alright?" asked Naruto
"Ya….you got me out of the way just in time." said Seth "Thanks."
"You're my brother." explained Naruto with a smile as he put his hand on his brother's shoulder "I will always protect you, it's what a brother does. Besides I don't want to explain to mom why you got hurt on the first day."
Seth laughed a bit as he looked up at HIS big brother.
"Now why don't you make sure your teammate gets to the doctors?" asked Naruto
"Aren't you coming?" asked Seth
"In a moment." answered Naruto as Seth started walking away, Naruto waited for a moment before speaking up.
'You know spying is something you don't normally do.' stated Naruto
"And beating up children is something you don't normally do." hissed a voice as Naruto turned his head just a bit to see Sasuke half way covered in a small grove of trees. "But these are not normal times."
"Why are you here?" asked Naruto
"Well there was this little rumor going around that you are a twelve tailed and my government wanted me to see confirm it." explained Sasuke as he slithered out into the sun.
"Well you have." stated Naruto as he heard Sasuke's slither closer to him.
"Well how is having a younger weaker brother…worried that he will turn out like me?" asked Sasuke as Naruto growled "Worried that you are Itachi and your brother Seth will end up like me."
"That isn't going to happen." stated Naruto
"Tell yourself that, tell yourself that you don't see the signs." Laughed Sasuke "Seth hates you for being the better son, you are stronger then he could hope to be. It will drive him to get power by any means."
"Like you did." said Naruto
"Yes." stated Sasuke "And the fact that you support humanity means the wedge between brothers is even greater. Any trust and if I dare say love you may get between the two of you will be broken the moment you try to save the leaf. You two are destined to follow the same path that Itachi and I followed and no matter how hard you try."
"Nothing is written in stone Sasuke." stated Naruto as he turned and started walking away "But if I ever see you near my pack or Sakura-chan. I will kill you."
"I would like to see you try." hissed Sasuke as he moved away.
Down in the cells located thought out the hospital Asuma was looking at his daughter who was turning faster than himself or Kurenai. His daughter was now almost totally a wolf, only her feet remained human but her black hair which she got from both her parents had turned to fur, her eyes were red eyes where looking him from over the muzzle. It was strange even though she now looked like a wolf she still looked like Kurenai. Maybe that had to do with the fact that Kurenai was changing into a wolf herself. She was changing a little faster than he was, while all he had was the fact that his chest hair had turned to black fur with a white strip running down the center, Kurenai already had a tail, claws and her feet from the knee down was now double jointed and covered with black fur. One of the nurses, a wolf had explained that Kurenai had a generation five drug which took three days for total transformation, his daughter had generation five which took two days but since she was a child it would go even faster. He had the earliest version of the drug of all three of them, his generation three took around four and a half to five days.
"Can we play catch?" asked Jaci as she held a small ball in her hands. Asuma slowly reached for the ball only to look at his daughter's hand, over her palms and fingers where now padded like the paws of a dog or in this case a wolf.
"Sure." said Asuma
"Thanks you, mister." said Jaci as Asuma frowned a bit, she wasn't calling him Daddy the same way she called Kurenai mommy to her he was just a new friendly stranger. He started to throw the ball back and forth between himself and his daughter.
"Give it time Asuma, she only knew you by photos." said Kurenai's voice in his mind "She will be calling you Daddy in a few days."
"Probably when we finish turning she will call me Daddy." Thought Asuma as he felt guilty he was now looking forward to demon hood just so he could be with his family.
It was near the end of the day as Sakura prepared to leave to head back to the demon fox village, Dacia hadn't finished transforming so she would be spending the night in the hospital however her friend had been adopted by a fox pack. She walked down the hallways looking in each room at the smiling faces of the turning orphans. Some of the nurses had started to separate the orphans who where closest to being full demons so that they would be amongst their own race. This was partly due to the fact they didn't want someone getting accidently hurt, some of the orphans who where become snakes now had venom tipped fangs in their mouths. Then there was all the claws and sharp teeth.
She walked down the halls, more demons where going into work while others were heading home, it was just like a normal work day. After getting on the transportation seal she was back in the demon fox village, waiting for her Kushina.
"Is something wrong?" asked Sakura as she walked up to Naruto's mother.
"Nothing much, Naruto has to explain why he punched the only son of a head pack." explained Kushina as the two of them stood in one of the hallways.
"What happened?" asked Sakura
"He sent a fire attack at Naruto and Seth which could have hurt them both." explained Kushina
"And Naruto protected his brother." Said Sakura as Kushina nodded her head.
"It shouldn't be much of an issue." explained Kushina "The Olvir pack just isn't used to someone standing up against them."
"Are you planning to do anything for Naruto's birthday on Friday?" asked Sakura
"It's his first birthday with us and on top of that it is his 21st birthday." stated Kushina "So I am planning to make it his best birthday."
"I see." said Sakura "I was kind of hoping to take him out in on a date."
"How about on Thursday night?" offered Kushina
"I guess that works." said Sakura
