It has been more than an year idrk


Recap:

"Hmm... You three... PASS!" said or yelled Kakashi as he gave them a thumbs up.


Current:

"Huh!? What!?" screamed Sakura. "How did Naruto get the bells? I bet he stole them from Satsuki-chan!"

Naruto sighed; he was really exhausted after the fight with Kakashi and he was nearing his mental capacity. He did not want any more blood on his hands. "I don't have the mental strength for this," he admitted.

Satsuki disappointed with herself just looked towards Kakashi with expectant eyes.

Kakashi even though wanted to be a loner could easily read the room as he too sighed before beginning the tale of his loss "I'll just fill you in on the basic happenings, Naruto has trained himself intensively and is the strongest Genin in many years, he fought much better than both you and Satsuki combined. I have some questions for him that I'll make sure to ask later but he alone carried you and Satsuki and brought Team 7 to reality. So cheer up, go home and eat then rest, we'll meet tomorrow at 0900."

Kakashi then proceeded to poof away and the memories of the morning surfaced to Naruto and so asked. "Satsuki? Wanna go get some ramen from Ichiraku?" Naruto was under tremendous pressure while working up the courage to ask her to ramen as a way of making up, only Satsuki would care for him and he would only ever care for her.

Satsuki still deep in thought about how to go about the mentor with the Hokage absently replied. "Hn. I can't come I have something I have to do." With that she walked away to exit the training grounds and get to the Hokage's office.

Naruto was crushed but appearances were important, so it is a matter of course he didn't let it show. 'It is most possibly because I snapped at her in the morning...' .

As much as Kurama wanted to refute that statement and he had a gut feeling that Satsuki wasn't upset with Naruto but a gut feeling was never a logical argument that would console Naruto, nevertheless he decided it was better to say something. "I don't think she is upset with you, kit.".

'Now why would that be?'

"Well, firstly it was a gut feeling, albeit a particularly strong one but that wouldn't suffice, looking at the direction she went in it was towards the centre of the village much farther than the compound. Maybe she just wants to buy some thing for the both of us, I would recommend not taking too much stress for it." Kurama knew he was still only speculating and Satsuki was upset about some thing but that would detrimental in consoling Naruto and she could just be delaying going home to avoid Naruto, saying this would be a fool's choice and the Kyuubi was anything but a fool. He did hope that Satsuki would confide in Naruto about what was troubling her.

'Yeah, you are right Kurama. I should not stress much over it, it will not benefit me either.' Naruto was now plenty distracted and headed to Ichiraku alone, he even had an idea of binge eating as celebration of beating Kakashi, almost fairly.

Now, this mental back and forth with Kurama took not too long but Sakura still stood there as she saw that, in her eyes, proposed her Satsuki-chan and got rejected, as she expected, then he just stood there with expressions changing all the while and now was about to walk out as if she wasn't even there, that's where she had enough."So you finally gave up on me and tried to hit on Satsuki, and surprise surprise you got blatantly rejected. I have no idea why a person like you even tries, do you find some pleasure in it? You freak!" Sakura thought she had once again walked all over one, Naruto Uzumaki, but how wrong she was.

Rage. Unbridled rage. The rage simply commanded the Kyuubi's chakra, a tremendous amount of negative chakra intertwined with the intent of massacre and murder of the Nine-tailed fox that once every being feared was released at once and this surge reminded the people were reminded of the fact the Kyuubi wasn't dead yet. "PLEASURE? You DARE believe that I find any pleasure in this miserable life that I have led? Do you have any idea how many times I just wanted to end it? But I! I know that I am worth more than that. That I WILL be respected whether it be by fear or petty chivalry! I have had enough of your constant tries of putting me down, I had to take it but not anymore. Now things have changed, I am no longer in the Academy i am a ninja now and outside the jurisdiction of the civilian council. I don't HAVE to put up with your weak attempts at asserting some sort of dominance over me. I will only repeat myself to you this one time. DO NOT OPEN THAT TRASH CAN UNLESS I ALLOW YOU TO." Sakura was in an almost comatose state at being exposed to such chakra without as much as a useless warning, only the fear kept her awake.

Kurama was absolutely shocked, that the emotions of a human could command his chakra like it was the human's own, it was different from Madara's control. It was as if the chakra was not his to control but Naruto's that it was just for him to carry. This 'event' was difficult to comprehend and Kurama couldn't react and talk to Naruto to settle his rage.


The surge of Kyuubi's chakra had put the village into a panic as everyone yelled that the Demon Brat is gonna destroy the village or something along the lines of this.


Hokage Office

The Sandaime had been quite happily listening to Kakashi's report of the test and how able Naruto was. The fact that Kakashi had come on time for a report after a long time was a huge plus. It was then that he too felt the surge of Kyuubi's chakra and then witnessed the panic among the citizenry, he knew that with the mental state of Naruto the seal couldn't have gone wrong.

Then Kakashi spoke in a very rushed manner "It's from the Training Ground 7 we have to go now." He then ran faster than ever to the training ground to find Naruto and do something knowing the Hokage would have to calm the civilians. He simply gave his all to running with chakra reinforced legs.


I will try weekly updates now
