Many thanks to my wonderful reviewers, you guys rock.
I don't own zit!
In the underworld, there was a dark room, especially made for meetings. In it, Shishi tried his best not to shout.
He really did. "WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU JUST SAY?" he demanded to the three demons in front of him. The three earth foxes tensed slightly before the middle one repeated what she said.
"W-we would like you to stay here in the demon world and become the new Kyuubi, Shishi-sama. With your strength and skills in swordplay, they can be used for the good of our fox brethren." she said, her brown hair in a bun and a single bang covering one of her green eyes. The other two were probably twins, both having large muscular bodies, brown hair in a crew-cut, and green eyes. The only way to distinguish them was by the scars. The one on the left had a scar on his left closed eye, showing he could no longer use it. The other had his lower jaw burned slightly. All three were wearing green robes with a jagged design, representing an earthquake. If he had to guess, all three were related.
"I'm not interested. I've started wars in the past, and I'm not exactly the most responsible guy around. Besides," his voice dropped to a serious tone as he made eye contact with the woman. She flinched at the darkness in his eyes. "You all know that someone else wants the throne. You also know that someone else has appeared, right for the place."
"But he's-"
"Mortal, yes. But once he becomes Kyuubi, he'll become that much stronger. Besides, he's already halfway to his potential. Any more info will have to come from him, but don't expect me to become your puppet." He crossed his arms, opening his jacket and showing the chain on his chest. If one were to look closely, they would see the complicated seals that were similar to the Caged-bird seal in each of the links. Only it was meant to cause huge amounts of pain and internal damage when activated. Never to kill "That happened once, and I bathed in my previous master's blood. Don't mess with me anymore. I'm the only thing that can take on a Kyuubi, and I can easily kill weaklings like you." he growled out, the two men tensing should they have to escape. Every other creature was smart enough to run away from this certain demon when he was angered.
"T-Thank you for your time, Shishi-sama." she said politely, before standing up and walking out of the room. The other two quickly followed her, giving Shishi looks of both horror and praise if possible. Shishi sat there for a moment, fidgeting with the chain around him.
'Fools. They have no idea the shit I've gone through and they think I'm going to help them. My family kept me sane, and it will continue that way until I die.' He smirked at remembering the fear in their eyes. They knew perfectly well what would happen should happen if they harmed his clan. None would be sparred. None ever have.
Naruto sighed as he sunk into the couch, Tayuya quickly heading off to the servant's quarters t tell Kin and Karin her adventure while Itachi went off to the Hokage tower in hopes to get his job back, Deidara following so she might be a shinobi of Konoha. Tobi simply disappeared. Literally, the guy just disappeared in a loud 'CRACK'. He finally returned to his wonderful home, and was instantly hugged by Akyo, Hikari, and the twins. It was really... heartwarming. After the hug, he was brought to the table to eat.
The meal was interrupted when Shishi walked in, a slightly annoyed look on his face as he went to the fridge, looked around, then took out some dango and began eating it. He didn't seem to care that it was still frozen, then again the youki in his mouth might warm it up. If the youki didn't then he really didn't give a damn. Part of him was still pissed they had the nerve to ask for his crowning, but he was cooling down.
"Uh... Welcome Shishi." Hikari said politely, Shishi waving at her before returning to raiding the fridge.
"Eat much?" joked Naruto, only for a piece of steak to fly towards his head. He caught it before Shishi's hand shot out and took it back, shoving into his mouth nearly a second later. Just then, a knocking came from the front door. Naruto stood and walked over to it, opening it and instantly being tackled to the floor by a woman slightly younger than twenty.
"What's up brat!" came cheerful and sexy voice, one Naruto just barely recognized.
"Um... Anko?" he asked, a bit uncertain. The hug just seemed to increase in strength as the woman on top of him giggled like a schoolgirl. "Yup, Anko." he decided, a calm smile on his face as he snuggled deeper into her chest.
"So where've you been anyway? I haven't seen you and you just disappear after taking my seal off. Aren't you a sweaty." she purred while placing a light kiss on his cheek. He finally managed to get a good look at her and noticed that she seemed younger. Not by much, probably by a year or two, but it was still noticeable. Especially when he noticed that her chakra seemed a lot more... lively.
"Hi, good to see you too, Anko." Naruto said kindly, letting Anko play around with his hair. Truth be told, it felt nice in his opinion. Anko giggled again when she heard the purring coming from the back of Naruto's neck. She felt giddy knowing this guy was extremely powerful, yet she could make him purr like a cat. Or a large beast of pure destruction.
"Oh? So you like it, eh Naruto?" she said saucily, making Naruto have a bit of red on his face when her scent invaded his nostrils. She smelled of sweets, snakes, forest, and that small tinge of what females' natural scent was. It was actually kinda relaxing in his opinion. It was then he noticed the other chakra signature behind her. Moving his head slightly to the side, he noticed a blushing and fidgeting Hinata standing behind Anko.
Unlike how she usually dressed, she now wore her sweater opened to show the form-fitting black shirt, and her pants were replaced by a black battle skirt with gray shorts underneath. Rather pretty and cute if he dare say. "Hey Hinata." Naruto purred out, making Hinata blush heavily. She had no idea he could sound so... sexy. A shiver went up her spine, making her just slightly wet. Naruto, however, seemed to be able to smell her quite perfectly, if the slit pupils and feral grin were anything to go by.
"Oh, before we start getting all hot and sweaty, our new and dear Hokage-sama wants to see you in her office immediately." she said, then leaned in close to his ear. "And once you come back, we'll be waiting for you. Nice and ready." Naruto's grin grew, nearly splitting his face in two as his eyes shone with desire.
"You better be, Hebi-hime." he growled out, licking her cheek with his slightly elongate tongue. Anko giggled, before standing from Naruto and allowing him to stand and give a quick kiss to Hinata before he flashed out of here.
"Come on girly! We're gonna get all nice for our man." Anko quickly grabbed Hinata and dragged her up the stairs, Hinata sputtering all the way. Akyo just quirked an eyebrow while Shishi began to sink into the shadows. He wanted to know what this new Hokage wanted, and if she had any ill-intent towards Naruto. Akyo saw she had no choice but to follow her brother, as she could sense his unhappiness.
Naruto, Sakura and Shishi, Shikamaru, Choji, Kiba and Akamaru, and Neji all stood before Tsunade and Sarutobi, the latter standing behind the current Hokage in grey robes and no hat. His balding head was shown to the world, and a certain demon had to resist the urge to go a thousand IPM (Insults Per Minute). "As it seems, Uchiha Sasuke has disappeared last night. Kiba here is the one that actually noticed that the Uchiha's scent led to the gates of Konoha. He was also the one to notice the knocked out guards." Tsunade began.
"Kiba, you're out of the 'Top-ten People I'll Kill'." Naruto mumbled, getting a nervous laugh from the Inuzuka heir. Until he noticed Naruto wasn't laughing, and had the most serious look in the world. This caused all joking to stop instantly.
"... A~nyway, I want all of you to go after him and bring him back at all costs." Everyone nodded, but Naruto raised his hand. "Yes?"
"You want him dead or alive?" he asked in a serious tone. 'Please say dead, please say dead, please say dead.'
"Alive. We still have to give him a trial, and it won't go well now that I'm here." she replied coldly.
"Understood." he mumbled while his fingers twitched slightly. 'FUUUUUCK! DAMN IT ALL TO HELL!'
"Dismissed." Tsunade said, completely ignoring the KI Naruto was directing at the floor. The poor floorboard would soon be seen rotting away in the next few hours and would have to be replaced.
All six members were currently at the gates, Sakura asking what happened to the guards. The only thing they learned was that the surviving three of the 'Sound-four' were the ones to help Sasuke escape.
However, Akyo and Shishi both appeared just as they were all about to leave. "What are you two doing?" asked Sakura while quirking an eyebrow.
"Need to kill." Shishi grumbled, his eyes closed as he sighed. He seemed troubled to the two teens.
Akyo simply sighed and said, "I'm just here to keep him under control." 'As best as I can.' she mentally added. Truth be told, Shishi was always holding back. He would be a perfect Kyuubi, but he was way too hectic. Plus he didn't like the job that much, since it meant leadership, and he was more of the type of guy to follow orders in an instant. If he was any stronger, he would be considered the offspring of the great Juubi. That alone scared everyone, even Hikari when she was still Kyuubi.
"Fine. We're off to skin an Uchiha and bring him back alive. In that order." Naruto mumbled, causing Shishi to smile while Kiba and Akamaru looked at him warily. This probably wasn't going to end well for Sasuke.
The team now ready, they all leapt into the trees in search for the traitorous Uchiha.
When Sasuke found himself covered in ice, he was a bit scared. He couldn't move, and his Sharingan showed that these ice shards were almost like that Momochi girl's. Except these had a different type of chakra. He wasn't even sure it was chakra at all. It was... stronger. And cold. He had the feeling that the owner of this 'energy' was not someone to anger.
Managing to look around, he saw that the three body guards were also frozen in place. Except for the fat one, who was killed instead. What happened was that he managed to dodge the ice, but ended up with some guy stabbing an ice shard into his head. Now they were all at the mercy of the man with storm grey eyes.
"Sasuke Uchiha, correct?" he said, crossing his arms and looking at Sasuke with an amused smile. "Those are the Sharingan then. The eyes that can see the future and copy these 'jutsu' you humans have." he said, his amused smile starting to irritate Sasuke.
"Release me!" he growled out, trying to at least manipulate the man as the two tomoe on his eyes began to spin. The man visibly frowned as he un crossed his arms.
Just barely, he could feel those damn eyes suppress his youki. 'So it's true. The Nidaime Kyuubi really did give this eye to a human. Bah, what a fool. No matter, these eyes are no match to a demon's.' he thought while looking at the eyes. "You know, that won't work on me, boy." he said, walking over to Sasuke and gripping the boy's head. "But I can tell that you've fought someone with youki before. There are still traces of that youki on your skin." He suddenly grabbed Sasuke's throat, the ice holding Sasuke down shattering as he was held above the ground by his neck. "Who was it! This youki is powerful, so tell me who you have fought with that has this power."
Now, Sasuke was no idiot. All the time anyway. He knew very well that this man could possibly kill him with a flick of his wrist. Through gritted teeth he murmured, "Naruto Uzumaki-Namkaze."
Well, hope you enjoyed it. I gotta say, I'm rushing this crap more than I intended in the beginning. I'll try to slow down from here on out.
Please review, tell me how much you love (or hate) this story, and have a wonderful day!
Ja ne!
