CHAPTER 12
Naruto and Gaara are staring down one another waiting for who will make the first move. With a leaf falling past them. Gaara stretched out his right clawed hand to swape at Naruto, only for Naruto to jump over and landed on his large hand.
Naruto: Little slow on the attack, are you Gaara?
Gaara: Shut up!
Before Gaara knew what happened, Naruto ran up his arm and kicked his head like a ball. Gaara was sent flying through many trees making a thundering loud impact to the ground and forming a large dusty cloud trail. Naruto crossed his arms and smiled.
Naruto: Come on Gaara, show me something new here!
A sudden blast came out as a long tail came swinging out multiple pieces of trees came flying at Naruto. Looking back at the two knocked out so called teammates and rolled his eyes. Naruto claps his hands together.
Naruto: Hell art, devil's safe circle!
A red circle force field formed around Sasuke, Sakura, and even Temari that was hiding far away from them.
Temari: What How did he know that I was here?
All the trees fly by as Naruto jumps and dodges them all as the trees hit and bounce off the force fields.
Naruto: Good thing I did that, because I will never hear the end of it from that damn council and those damn villagers.
Naruto's thoughts were cut off as Gaara transformed into the giant sand demon Shukaku. Naruto took a jump back as the form took a large shaking step down. Naruto looked up as Gaara came out of Sukaku's forehead with a crazed smile.
Gaara: Very good Uzumaki! Incredibly good! To thank you for this great fight I'll let mother kill you.
Gaara put his hands together and closed his eyes.
Gaara: sleep opossum jutsu.
Gaara's body went limp as the sand demon woke up.
Sukaku: Yeah! I'm back, here I come baby!
Naruto: So, you're the sand demon Sukaku? Just in time, I need to talk to you.
Sukaku looked down at Naruto and gave him a snarl.
Sukaku: Why should I listen to anything from a little human!
Naruto: Go back to Gaara and never hurt him again. Let him sleep.
Sukaku: HA,HA,HA! That's a good one and how are you going to make me human!
Naruto smiled as Sukaku slammed his giant claw down on Naruto creating a large dust cloud after a shock wave.
Sukaku: Ha,Ha,Ha. Worthless human! You think I ….
The sand demon didn't get to finish his speech as he saw the glow from the clouds. Hearing a small laugh the sand demon feels a power coming from the small human, a power he remembers all too well.
Sukaku: No... it can't be, that chakra?!
The dust cloud cleared showing Naruto in his baryon form.
Sukaku: Kurama...
Naruto: Was Kurama's, sadly he is no longer with us. Just like you if you keep this fucking shit up.
Naruto, in a blink of an eye, grabbed Sukaku's right arm, as blue flame starts to form on Sukaku's and he let out a painful scream while trying to break free from Naruto's grip.
Sukaku: GHAAA! Ow, ow, ow, Uncle, uncle. Uncle...
Sukaku fell to the ground and slammed his hand in pain as Naruto smiled while adding more power to the flame.
Naruto: Are you going to do as you are told?
Sukaku: Yes,yes , yes. Please forgive me, I'll do it right now and never do anything again. Sorry!
Naruto: Thin do it.
The form of Sukaku slowly crumbles back into sand and Gaara falls down to the pile of sand. laying on the sand, Gaara coughed and started gasping for air. Slowly opened his eyes Gaar turn to see Naruto walking towards him and try to move out of fear but can't move.
Gaara: Please, stay away!
Naruto stopped and sadly looked at Gaara.
Naruto: it's hurts does it, being alone, hated for something out of your control. I know that feeling very well.
Gaara: Is that how you become so strong?
Naruto: No, what made me strong is all my precious people I made in life and if I will stop at nothing to keep them safe even if I must kill someone like you.
Naruto was thinking about Octavia, Stolas and the others and had a small smile on his face.
Gaara: Precious...people...
Gaara's thoughts were cut off as Temari and Kankuro jumped out beside Gaara. They both are terrified but ready to fight. Gaara slowly rase his hand.
Gaara: Stop...Temari...Kankuro. We must retreat.
Temari: Ok Gaara.
The two picked up Gaara and were getting ready to leave.
Naruto: Gaara.
Gaara looked back at Naruto.
Naruto: You can rest easy now, Sukaku won't be trying to eat your soul anymore.
The three sand siblings had a look of shock and Gaara gave a soft smile.
Gaara: Thank...you. Naruto Uzumaki.
With that the three sand ninjas left leaving Naruto alone and he looked over with a frown at his two knocked out teammates.
Naruto: I should just leave your asses here for the wolves but like I said before I won't hear the end of it from that damn council.
With a snape of his finger, Naruto and his two ex-teammates vanish. Naruto reappeared at the arena in front of Hokage, Kakashi, and others.
Hiruzen: Ah, Naruto, you back. How did it go?
Naruto: It turned out good, the sand Ninjas left the village, and it was a good thing that Sukaku is an easy push over or things might get worse if we were to continue to battle.
Hiruzen: I see. You may go home to Naruto, there was hardly any damage in the village thanks to your help Naruto my boy. I'll call you to the office later for your report.
Naruto: Thanks, old man.
Naruto turned to walk away until Kakashi called to him.
Kakashi : Naruto, where's Sasuke and Sakura?
Naruto turned around scratching the back of his head with a big smile.
Naruto: Oh, there somewhere in the trash in the back alleys.
Kakashi's one eye widened in terror and took off. Naruto shook his head at that and waved goodbye to the Hokage and vanished.
Naruto came to his home and open the door.
Naruto: I'm home!
Naruto didn't get in the house before being tackled to the ground by Octavia, giving him a deep kiss.
Octavia: Welcome home Naruto.
Naruto: Thank you, my owl princess.
Naruto started to kiss her back until Stolas and Stella came out.
Stolas: Sorry to interrupt you Naruto my boy but Stella is getting hungry.
Stella: Yes, I'm just dying to try out ramen.
Naruto and Octavia got back up as they laughed to themself from Stella's hunger and Naruto dusted himself off.
Naruto: Ok, ok, let's go get some ramen and celebrate.
Stolas clap his hand in delight and Stella have a small smile as Octavia hugged on Naruto's arm very tight. Naruto looked at her and she looked back as they both smiled.
Naruto: shall we, my lady?
Octavia: Oh, what a gentleman. Giggle.
As they went to the gate and opened it, there stood an anbu kneeling in front of them.
Ambu: Naruto, you and your friends are called by the council for the meeting.
The anbu vanished and all four had a very angry look on their faces. mostly the hungry Stella must of all.
Naruto: I Figured they will do this sooner or later, well guys let go and see what the hell they want.
