KG: I'M BACK BABY! I can finally type like I want! HAHAHA!
Naruto: I think you've lost your mind. Or what little of it you've got.
KG: Shut your mouth man. I don't see you doing anything.
Naruto: (Picks up a script) As you can see I'm directing a movie. Kaa-chan, Teme, Kakashi-sensei, and Yugao-chan are in it as well. So are you even.
KG: What movie is this?
Naruto: The Tale of the Dead Man!
KG and Kushina: What the hell is that dattebane/dattebamen?
Naruto: (chuckles) You'll see.
Sasuke: Why exactly am I the antagonist in this?
Naruto: It suits your personality. Let's roll!
KG: HOLD IT! I need to do this. I have my other responsibilities. So please wait. (Ahem) Let's get started.
Naruto's Mindscape
Kyuubi face-palmed himself with one of his tails as he heard Naruto's response.
"Real smooth brat. Let's hope this doesn't bite you in the ass," Kyuubi said in his thoughts as he noticed the action outside.
With Naruto and Sasuke
Sasuke stared blankly at the sweating blonde who mentally cursed. He might have taken that little prank too far as it didn't go as he had planned. Naruto could feel Sasuke's stares piercing his head just waiting to make the blonde explode and break down to explain what the hell he just saw.
Naruto sighed and stood to his feet while glaring at Sasuke.
"Come on Teme, we've got to tell Gaara about this," Naruto said trying to change the subject of Sasuke's thoughts and it seemed to work as the Uchiha turned his head to look at the dead Yutara on the ground. He slowly sighed with a nod as he took up the body and propped it over his shoulder.
"I guess you're right. We'll take him now. But I'm not done with you Naruto," Sasuke said keeping the last part to himself. The two quickly jumped back to the sandy walls that guarded Suna and hopped into the village.
The Uzumaki and Uchiha heirs quickly raced through the village that still seemed to be rather frantic in searching for whoever caused the explosion to the Kazekage Mansion. It was rather impressive to see them working so hard, but then Naruto noticed a familiar face and dropped to the ground.
"Oi, Temari," Naruto called making the blonde Wind Mistress turn her head to see the two Hinoken members coming towards her.
"Naruto, you know that people are to stay inside their houses while we investigate this incident. You're lucky that you called to me and not anyone else. Who is Sasuke carrying?" Temari asked and the Uchiha placed Yutara on the ground. Temari widened her eyes at the Suna shinobi while turning to Naruto and Sasuke.
"Gaara said that we were allowed to investigate with you and we went out at the crack of dawn. We saw this guy leaving the village and challenged him. He was the one who blew up the Kazekage Mansion, but we could hear him talking to someone so he must've been the traitor, but not the one who wanted Gaara gone," Naruto said and Temari touched his throat.
"You killed him?" she asked and both nodded while Temari sighed. She would've told them that they would have wanted the guy alive, but seeing as how without them he would've gotten away so she decided against it.
"Well alright then. I'll go inform Gaara about this. He might want to talk with you later, but for now just head back to your rooms and stay there this time," Temari said glaring at the two of them making Naruto sheepishly chuckled with a nod while Sasuke merely folded his arms and let out a small huff for a response.
"You got it Temari. We'll see you later," Naruto said jumping off the rooftops and Sasuke followed. Temari watched the two kenjutsu shinobi leave and sighed as she quickly picked up Yutara's body and ran away with it towards Gaara's location.
Konoha Gates
Izumo and Kotetsu were currently playing cards with each other since the boredom of guard duty was taking it's toll on them both.
"That's three. HA! I win," Kotetsu shouted jumping from his chair while he did a small dance. He was about to collect the money on the table before he saw his partner's little smile that spooked him a little.
"Not so fast Kotetsu. See this. Royal Straight Flush. I win," Izumo said while Kotetsu gaped like a fish out of water while Izumo took his winnings and placed them in his pocket with a satisfied smirk.
"I really hate you right now," Kotetsu said slumping in his chair and Izumo chuckled at his friend while propping his legs on the table in front of them.
"Yeah well you need to take lessons in poke dude. You're too easy to read sometimes," Izumo stated and Kotetsu merely grumbled before they spotted a figure in the distance. He looked in awe like he had never been to Konoha before, but that wasn't what it was. He was just happy. Truly, truly happy. Mistaking the man for someone else they knew Izumo spoke.
"Hiashi-san, what are you doing out of the village?" Izumo asked making the Hyuuga turn to him. He gave a small smile and closed his eyes. He could still fool people into thinking that he was Hiashi's brother. It was too amazing to hear and see at times like that.
"You two have grown since the last time I saw you," Hizashi said making Kotetsu squint his eyes. He noticed the seal on Hizashi's head and gasped as he quickly got to his feet. He jumped off the table at shot for Hizashi then looked him up and down before falling to his knees.
"Hizashi-sensei, you're alive!" Kotetsu said making Izumo widen his eyes at his partner's words. He then jumped out of the small box also and ran to Hizashi. He quickly took in the Hyuuga's appearance and trembled while a small tear came from his eyes.
"Hizashi-sensei how? When? Why are you-? Do you know you're alive?!" Izumo asked and Hizashi smiled at two of his students from his jonin days before his death. He patted them on the head before looking forward.
"Yes I know. Tell me, where is Sarutobi? I wish to speak with him immediately," Hizashi said and while Izumo and Kotetsu had their questions they sighed and looked at the Hokage Stone Faces. Hizashi followed their gazes and looked up at the mountain before receiving the hidden message.
"I...see. The who is the next Hokage in succession?" Hizashi asked while Izumo and Kotetsu glanced at each other.
"Tsunade Senju Hizashi-sensei. She has been our Hokage for two years now," Izumo said and Hizashi placed a finger to his chin and closed his eyes while he thought over those words.
"So Tsunade's back in the village and she's the Hokage. How much have I missed since my death? I can't wait to see just how Neji looks now," Hizashi thought before he opened his eyes and nodded.
"Very well. Please take me to Tsunade immediately. I have no doubt that I will want to catch up on some things so tell me-," Hizashi stopped when Izumo held up his hand just like he would as a genin which made Hizashi sigh, but he allowed him to talk.
"Sorry to interrupt Hizashi-sensei, but how are you even here? I mean we know you departed in Kumo. It just doesn't make any sense that you would be alive," Izumo said and Kotetsu turned to his partner.
"Yeah, but it's just like Hinako-san, Kushina-san, and Mikoto-san. They said that they had their missions to go on so Sarutobi-sama covered up their missions with their deaths. Rather cold if you ask me," Kotetsu said and Hizashi narrowed his eyes.
"I promised Naruto-san my word of silence. It seems he's been rather busy with that contract. To think that my imouto is back also is just amazing. I guess I'll have to cover him also," Hizashi thought to himself before turning to the chunin in front of him.
"I'll tell you this, but you must know that this was a mission given to me as well. My death was to be a cover up for information from Kumo and I've been sending messages via messenger bird. I had stopped receiving reports so I came back to see what was going on in the village. I'm sorry to have left you two. By the way, where's Anko?" Hizashi asked not really wanting to know the answer to that question while Kotetsu and Izumo snickered.
"Probably laying drunk somewhere like usual," Izumo said and Hizashi rolled his eyes while rubbing his temples.
"It seems that girl still doesn't listen to me," Hizashi thought to himself before Izumo and Kotetsu walked him towards the Hokage Mansion while telling their sensei about their times that he was gone.
Back with Naruto and Sasuke
The two Hinoken members made it to their rooms while they waited for Gaara. As soon as Naruto passed through the door Sasuke slammed it shut and locked it making the blonde cursed.
"Kuso, he still wants to know about it," Naruto thought and Sasuke glared at him while Naruto sat on his bed deciding not to say anything until Sasuke did so.
For the next few minutes it was nothing, but an awkward silence for the blonde making him mentally gulp as it was so quiet that they could hear the water in the sink dropping with every passing second that seemed like an eternity to Naruto, but the blonde stayed silent and didn't say anything.
"What was that?" Sasuke suddenly asked breaking the long term silence making Naruto let out the breath that he didn't know he was holding.
"Excuse me?" he responded and Sasuke mentally growled, but managed to calm down slightly.
"What was that spirit behind you? You called it the Shinigami. Despite being an idiot I know you're not stupid. So tell me what that was," Sasuke said and Naruto slowly sighed. He was calm on the outside, but the inside was another story.
"Dammit, what do I say to him? Maybe I should just tell him the truth and be done with it. You know you could help me out here," Naruto said mentally and Kyuubi chuckled.
"True, but watching you squirm is a lot more amusing to me so I'll let you figure it out," Kyuubi said and Naruto sucked his teeth, but didn't say anything else. He then widened his eyes as he slowly got a small grin.
"It was a genjutsu. Something I learned over the break with Ero-sennin. It doesn't need to be seen to be activated. You know my chakra control sucks when I have to do genjutsu, but this one is special. By using some of the chakra I have stored up then I can make it real for about twenty seconds before it dispels. That's what makes it fearsome. I don't really have a name for it yet and as you can see it takes its toll on me," Naruto said hoping that it was enough and Sasuke glared at the blonde. He closed his eyes for a few minutes then opened them.
"You know you suck at lying right?" he asked and Naruto cursed. He stood to his feet and folded his arms.
"And how would you know that I was lying?" Naruto asked and Sasuke snorted.
"Because I know you. You aren't the genjutsu type no matter what you say. So why don't you try something else," Sasuke said and Naruto groaned before he lightly snickered.
"Never could get past you I guess. Fine, like I said back in Uzugakure. Sasuke, can I trust you?" Naruto asked and the Uchiha raised an eyebrow. He wondered why Naruto would lie and granted that was a skill that shinobi had to learn, it just didn't suit him or his personality.
"You already did that when you took me back to Konoha. This shouldn't be any different you loser. Now tell me what's up with you," Sasuke said and Naruto nodded as he sat back down. Sasuke leaned against the wall and so the blonde decided to have some trust in Sasuke and told him only some of the information. He told about him nearly dying because of the Uchiha which Sasuke showed a small amount of remorse for. He then went on to say that the Shinigami found interest in him and made him the summoner. He didn't say about the powers nor that he could revive people. He felt that Sasuke was better off not knowing and he simply felt that Sasuke might find out the rest by himself.
"I thought I told you to tell me the truth," Sasuke said and Naruto narrowed his eyes.
"That was the truth Teme. I wouldn't lie about something like this. That last one doesn't count," The blonde said immediately and Sasuke glared at him...hard.
"You expect me to believe that the deity over the dead was interested in you and allowed you to live? Hn, I don't know where you got such a crack story," Sasuke said before he was slammed to the wall by Naruto and he suddenly felt all the KI directed at him with Naruto using the first technique the Shin ever taught him which was the Shi no Gyoshi( Death Stare). Sasuke could see his death in Naruto's eyes while the blonde growled.
"Don't think I don't know the time to be serious Teme. I've changed over the two years so you'd better remember that," Naruto said before he dropped Sasuke making the Uchiha wince while Naruto turned around. He could feel Shin's presence around him and just knew that he was being influenced, but it felt good to be rather cold like that to Sasuke of all people.
The Uchiha coughed and rubbed his throat while Naruto sat back down on his bed. He glared at Sasuke before closing his eyes and folding his arms. He propped one leg over the other and sighed before the two heard a knock on the door.
"Come in," Naruto said in a sort of pissed off tone, but the door opened nonetheless and both saw Gaara looking at them. Naruto stood to his feet and so did Sasuke as both immediately stopped fighting and got back to their business.
"Gaara, did Temari send you who we took care of?" Naruto asked and Gaara nodded. He gave them both his standard impassive face before he spoke.
"That's right. Yutara used to be one of our most talent jonin. Right next to Baki. It's hard to imagine that he would have a hand in this. Uzumaki Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke while I thank you for your help I can't tell you that this will lower any of Suna's security so you must both leave soon. I have told the shinobi and you can leave, but it must be soon since we don't want anyone else getting past our defenses. Naruto Uzumaki, I hope to meet you again sometime," Gaara said extending his hand. Naruto smiled and nodded as he shook it.
"We understand Gaara. I wish we could've talked more. Mostly about your mother, but I guess that can wait, but I can't help wonder something else. Ne Gaara, did either of your parents have red hair?" Naruto asked and the Kazekage raised an eyebrow.
"My mother had blonde hair and my father from what I remember had auburn-ish hair. Why do you ask?" Gaara asked narrowing his eyes slightly and Naruto scratched his cheek.
"Umm nothing really. What about your grandparents? Do you know them?" Naruto asked and Gaara closed his eyes.
"I do not. If I had to guess then my father's side had some red hair, but not my mother's. Again, why do you ask? Gaara asked again and the blonde shinobi rubbed the back of his head.
"Mere curiosity that's all. It was just a thought that's all. Alright we'll go," Naruto said and Sasuke nodded as they quickly packed up their things, by they it was Naruto's clones. Gaara watched them and wondered where Naruto was getting this curiosity from, but he figured that the blonde was weird like that so he just decided to let it go for the time being.
It didn't take long at all since Naruto and Sasuke had only just spent the night in Suna. It took virtually no time to get finished with their stuff and placed it over their backs.
"Well Gaara we'll see you soon. It was nice seeing you again," Naruto said and Gaara nodded as he watched the two leave and the quickly hopped along the rooftops and disappeared in flashes of speed while Gaara merely looked onward. He still wondered what was going through the blonde's mind before he left in a sand shunshin.
Back in Uzushiogakure
Construction was still going on as usual, but it was a lot faster with the Naruto clones helping out. Kakashi had dispelled his clones since they couldn't take the strain and neither could Yugao's anymore. Mikoto and Kushina had kept theirs up since they could take a lot more. Speaking of the two mothers of Naruto and Sasuke, they were currently watching people work as they sipped their tea.
"You know Kushina you've had a glow on your face for awhile now. Did something good happen to you in the few days before I joined?" Mikoto asked and Kushina's eyebrow twitched while she snickered.
"Nothing in particular," she said though she was lying. She still had in her mind the time that her son and herself passed the boundary from morality into immorality, but she didn't care at all. Something about being free of inhibitions was quite good to her.
"Kushina, you got a boyfriend didn't you?" Mikoto asked as she snickered and Kushina coughed.
"No I didn't," Kushina said with her blush betraying her words while Mikoto nudged her arm.
"Don't try to hide it. So who is it? Kakashi?" Mikoto asked and Kushina shook her head. The guy was way too lazy for her taste. She had never considered Kakashi that way and she still couldn't. The Uzumaki woman turned her head to see Mikoto thinking with her finger to her chin before she gasped.
"Sasuke?" she asked and Kushina merely stared at her with a stare.
"Hell to the NO dattebane!" Kushina yelled out in her thoughts as she ran around her mind shouting profanities while Mikoto seemed to be waiting. Kushina couldn't go through with that one. No way, too emotionless much like Fugaku. Truth be told, Kushina didn't know what Mikoto saw in Fugaku at all, but she could just forget it.
"Umm no Mikoto," Kushina said using the polite way to hide her still growing vein at the back of her head. Mikoto sighed and tried to think of something else. She suddenly widened her eyes and turned to Kushina. The redhead Uzumaki gulped as she wondered if Mikoto found it out before the Uchiha Matriarch responded.
"Kushina you play for the other team?" Mikoto asked and soon Kushina faulted and fell to the ground with a sweatdrop on her head. She wasn't into that mess either. She was straight and always would be.
"Mikoto I'm straight. You know that. Why the sudden interest in my love life?" Kushina asked and Mikoto rubbed the back of her head with a light chuckle.
"Heh umm I guess I just want to know if I missed out on anything," Mikoto said rubbing the back of her head and Kushina shook her head at her best friend before standing to her feet.
"I have nothing to say so shall we get going?" she asked and Mikoto raised an eyebrow.
"Where are we going?" she asked and Kushina twirled a scroll in her hands before sipping the last of her tea.
"Why we're going to start setting up the Hinoken base. It will take most of the day and night, but we'll get it done if we hurry," Kushina said running off and before Mikoto could respond she was getting dragged along also with a sigh.
"I wonder who Kushina would go for. She's definitely got a fetish for blonde hair. I wonder would she go for- nah, not Kushina. Even she knows when to sensible," Mikoto thought while she was getting dragged away.
With Kakashi and Yugao
The two Hinoken members were currently cutting across Kusagakure and on their way towards the outskirts of Konoha. There was said to be three missing nin in that area. All B-rank. It might be some easy money for the entire group to cover the expenses of everyone on the Uzugakure rebuilding project.
"Yugao, you're slacking. Pick up the pace," Kakashi said and Yugao lightly smiled before she "picked up the pace" and passed Kakashi making the Hinoken shinobi sweatdrop.
"That better Kakashi-senpai?" she asked and the white haired man simply sighed as he wondered if Yugao ever liked to play around, but he found it inviting in a way.
"I suppose it is, but keep your wits about you," Kakashi told her and Yugao nodded, but then she stopped at a tree branch and turned around.
"I know you're hiding so come out!" Yugao called out and drew her sword while Kakashi closed his visible eye. He could feel a presence behind him and turned around to see Kabuto looking at the both.
"Oya, this is quite the unexpected turn of events. Love the new robes Kakashi. You look even weaker than before," Kabuto said with a smile and Kakashi narrowed his eyes while Yugao did the same.
"And you're still in that same getup Kabuto. You must have no fashion sense at all," Yugao shot back to him making Kabuto lightly chuckle.
"So what brings you both to Kusa? You don't seem like the type to just waltz in here," Kabuto told them both and Kakashi sighed as he grabbed a piece of his scarf that was covering his eye and grabbed it before Kabuto put his hands up.
"Oi oi I'm not here to fight. Didn't expect to run into you so I'd rather not get my hands dirty. So what do you say that I just walk away and you both walk away?" Kabuto asked before he felt a blade to his throat and closed his eyes while Yugao appeared behind him with a cold glare.
"If I remember then you're an A-rank missing nin from Konoha. The bounty on you is more than enough to finish the repairs," Yugao said and Kabuto snickered.
"While I'm glad I have such a high attention rating, mind telling me what you're repairing?" he asked and soon he heard cackling as Kakashi drew his father's sword from his sheath.
"It's nothing that need be concerned with you as you will die here today," Kakashi said and Kabuto adjusted his glasses.
"Well Orochimaru-sama did say that I should get some exercise," Kabuto said before his arm glowed in blue chakra. Yugao widened her eyes before jumping away while Kabuto swung his arm attempting to cut her, but she was too fast and backflipped to a tree while Kabuto snickered. He soon jumped in the air to dodge Kakashi's blade that would've cut him in half before he landed.
"All you can do is dodge. Don't get cocky!" Yugao yelled and charged at Kabuto. The medic quickly took out a kunai and both clashed with each other as Yugao growled at him and Kabuto smiled.
"I'd prefer that I call it confidence," he said and immediately he got kicked across the face by Kakashi who sent him into a tree only for him to dispel into a log.
"Damn," Yugao muttered to herself and while Kakashi landed on a branch adjacent to Yugao's. They looked around the forest and both didn't let their guard down before Kakashi spoke.
"He's gone," he said making Yugao growl.
"We could've taken him," she said and Kakashi was inclined to agree with her. He knew that Kabuto had run away since he couldn't take them both, but what was this feeling of uncertainty that was clouding his thoughts?
"Yugao, let's return to our meeting point," Kakashi said deciding not to use the name of their location for fear of being heard.
"Aww come on senpai. We should at least keep going. Don't worry about him. I'll make sure to keep my guard up. I was in the anbu after all," Yugao said and Kakashi narrowed his eye at her before he merely made a smile out of it and nodded.
"If you insist," he said and the two quickly vanished out of sight to return to their previous destinations.
Not long after they left, a figure came from the distance in a time warp and slowly eyed the trail of chakra left by the three shinobi.
"It seems that something interesting is going on. Looks like I'll be rather busy, but in this time I must start my plans. First I must get Deidara and find the Sanbi jinchuuriki. Still it ruins my plans that Sasuke is back with Konoha, but I'm sure a little...introduction will be just what he needs only after he kills Itachi however. I don't need him interfering anymore," Tobi said as he quickly turned around to see Kabuto smirking.
"I had a feeling I would run into you sooner or later," Kabuto said and Tobi immediately changed his persona and wrapped his hand around his head.
"Hiya! I'm Tobi. Do you like to fight? Tobi does because Tobi is a very good boy!" he said making Kabuto sigh with a small sweatdrop.
"Look here. I know who you are so just stop the antics," Kabuto said and Tobi immediately glared at him.
"Is that so? Well fine then. What do you want?" he asked and Kabuto moved his finger back and forth.
"Oh it's not what I want. It's what you want and what I can offer you," Kabuto spoke to him making Tobi narrow his eyes as he wondered what someone like Kabuto could have for him.
Back in Konoha
Neji was rushing through the streets trying to make his way towards the Hokage Mansion. Hiashi and Hinako had just told him the most amazing news and he just had to see it for himself or he would never be able to live it down.
"Neji, why are you rushing?" Tenten asked, but Neji didn't register her question and kept going as he entered the Hokage Mansion. The Hyuuga genius quickly walked up the stairs with his teammates following him wondering what was up.
"Kami, please don't play with me if this is real," Neji said in his thoughts before he appeared behind the door of the Hokage office and raised his hand before he heard someone yelled.
"Come on Hizashi-senpai I said I was sorry. It was on the spur of the moment," a feminine voice yelled from behind the door and Neji widened his eyes as he knocked.
"Come in," came the tired, shocked, and slightly frustrated voice of the Slug Princess. Neji opened the door and widened his eyes as he saw his father, Hizashi Hyuuga, glaring down at the proctor for the second exam, Anko Mitarashi, with Tsunade pouring more of her sake out of the window while Shizune watched it happen.
Hizashi rubbed his temples before he turned his head and immediately noticed a younger version of himself. He noticed Neji's surprised face and quickly maintained his posture as he walked forward. Neji nearly trembled with each step before Hizashi was right in front of him.
"Hello Neji. You've really grown," Hizashi said and Neji's hair shadowed his eyes as he looked at the ground. Everyone could see the faintest of tears fall down his face while Hizashi patted his son on the shoulder.
"Not going to say anything?" Hizashi asked and Neji merely grabbed his father's clothes and pressed his head to his chest. Hizashi seemed confused by the act while Neji sighed.
"You. Talk. Now!" He said and Hizashi could feel his son's KI soaring while he mentally gulped. He was in some deep shit this time.
"I was just about to explain to Hokage-sama, but let me finish a small matter," Hizashi said and Neji reluctantly let him go as Hizashi turned around and faced Anko who was putting up the 'V' sign with her fingers before he approached her.
"What did I tell you Anko?" Hizashi asked and Anko sulked.
"To not drink excessively when I got older," she said and Hizashi folded his arms while Izumo and Kotetsu snickered and their female teammate from their genin days while Anko glared at them.
"Damn traitors. I'll get you back for this," she said in her thoughts before she noticed Hizashi with a small vein on his head that made Anko wonder how he was still keeping his stoic expression.
"And what did you do when you got older?" he asked and Anko sighed.
"I drank excessively and disregarded your advice," she said and Hizashi nodded as he turned his back to her.
"Well we'll talk about your punishment later. For right now I must talk with Hokage-sama," Hizashi said while Anko, Izumo and Kotetsu left the room. Neji decided to stay since he'd rather not leave and listen to this himself.
"Let me guess you were out on a mission given to you by Sarutobi-sensei that happened to be you dying?" she asked and Hizashi nodded his head as he wondered if this story was being used. Neji activated his byakugan in case of a lie, but his father's chakra was calm and collected, he perfect sign of someone who wasn't lying.
"That's right. Kumo didn't kill me as I expected, but they tried to take my eyes. I managed an escape, but stayed in the village to give them a reason not to go to war with you. I felt that if I went back then Neji would have a harder time and so would Konoha," Hizashi said and Tsunade groaned.
"How am I supposed to believe this?" she asked and Hizashi narrowed his eyes at her. He really had no proof that he was telling the truth. He closed his eyes and thought with a groan.
"If only Mikoto was alive then she could vouch for me," Hizashi said and Tsunade raised an eyebrow at his words.
"She is alive. Are you telling me that she knew about the mission that Sarutobi-sensei gave you and she can vouch for it?" she asked and Hizashi sighed.
"Well I believe so. I met her only once on the way through Kusagakure," Hizashi said and Tsunade nodded.
"Very well then I'll bring Mikoto and the rest of the squad here as well. If you're lying then I'll kick your ass. If not then I'll just let you go. For now you may go back home. I'll figure out what to do with you later," Tsunade said in a tired tone as she just wanted her day to be finished, but sadly that still seemed to be a ways off.
"Thank you Tsunade-sama," Hizashi said before he walked out with Neji following him. Tsunade glared hard and sighed.
"Shizune bring me all the mission files from the archive room. Something is wrong here and I don't like it," Tsunade said and Shizune bowed before leaving her master alone while Tsunade tried to wrap her mind around everything going on.
With Sasuke and Naruto, three days later, Nami no Kuni
"Sasuke have you been able to find a boat yet?" Naruto asked his Uchiha partner, but the brunette only shook his head making Naruto groan slightly as they appeared in front of Tsunami's house. Naruto knocked on the door and Tsunami opened it then smiled at the two.
"I didn't expect to see you so soon. Is there something that I can help you with?" she asked and Naruto rubbed the back of his head.
"No not really. We just needed a place for a little rest that's all. Mind us coming inside?" Naruto asked and Tsunami smiled as she shook her head.
"Not at all. Please come in," she said and the two boys came in. Since Tazuna and Inari weren't in the house then she was alone. Tsunami smiled at them before taking out a kunai. Sasuke tensed while Naruto raised an eyebrow as Tsunami smiled rather embarrassingly.
"I've seen Inari try to throw one of these and it interested me a little. Would you mind watching me throw one?" she asked making Naruto snicker. Sasuke raised an eyebrow at her words as he wondered if she would be training for anything.
"That's fine, but umm why?" Naruto asked while Tsunami smiled.
"Ummm it might just be a fleeting obsession, but I've tried it multiple times," Tsunami said and Naruto shrugged his shoulders.
"I don't ind watching. How about you Sasuke?" Naruto asked.
"Hn, whatever," he said as Naruto sweatdropped at the Uchiha's words, but decided not to do anything as they walked outside. The three came to the trees where Naruto and Sasuke did their tree-climbing exercise with Sakura. It was very nice to reminisce a little.
"Brings back memories right Sasuke?" Naruto asked and the Uchiha snorted, but nodded as he could still see the multiple slash marks from his tree and Naruto.
"Yeah it took a while, but we got it and we both knocked that Haku girl down a peg," Sasuke said and Naruto snickered before he heard a voice.
"You did nothing. I was in control the whole time, well mostly," the voice said and Naruto widened his eyes before turning around, but he saw nothing.
"Kyuubi did you hear that?" Naruto asked making his bijuu stir as he gave a loud yawn.
"Hear what brat?" Kyuubi asked and Naruto narrowed his eyes. He rubbed the back of his head and shook it.
"Nah, never mind. You can go back to sleep," Naruto said and Kyuubi closed his eyes letting the sleep claim his being again.
Meanwhile Naruto and Sasuke watched as Tsunami stood in front of the tree. She sighed and quickly threw the shuriken and the two watched the kunai embed into the tree on the exact mark. Sasuke widened his eyes and so did Naruto at the action.
"Not bad Tsunami-san. That was perfect. Here trying doing it with two," Naruto said handing her the two and Tsunami shook her head. She took the kunai embedded into the tree and grabbed it as she put the three kunai together.
"I'll try it with three. Here I go," Tsunami said and threw the kunai each lining a foot above the other in a straight line. Naruto whistled and Sasuke smirked.
"Good, but you extend your arm too much. More practice and it's golden," Sasuke said and Tsunami nodded.
"Thank you. I'm glad that I could do that," she said and before both noticed it, Naruto was gone as he decided to go somewhere.
The blonde was walking up a steady forest edge and suddenly he came to the grave site of Zabuza Momochi and Haku Momochi. He looked at them both and sighed as he rubbed the back of his head.
"What I wouldn't give to talk with you guys again. Zabuza you were kind of an ass, but I respect you. Look I have a sword. Kaa-chan brought it for me," Naruto said holding up the sword and let it glimmer in the light before he heard a voice.
"I now that much brat. I'm not deaf. Also don't think I didn't see you trying to get it on that woman. I don't know whether to be impressed or jealous," something said before Naruto heard another voice.
"Zabuza-sama don't tease Naruto-kun like that! He's strong. Not to mention...more manly," it said while Naruto widened his eyes. He quickly held up a handsign and channeled his new source of power, the Honshou, to his eyes. They lost their color and turned a sparkly silver as he looked around and gasped. He saw Zabuza next to him looking down at him and Haku who was sitting next to Naruto.
"Holy fucking shit of all things that are wrong in the fuckin' world!" Naruto yelled making Haku and Zabuza jump at his tone.
"What's wrong with this brat Haku? I swear he's bipolar," Zabuza said and Haku shrugged her shoulders while Naruto stood to his feet and turned around.
"I see you. I really see you. Zabuza, Haku-chan! I see you!" Naruto yelled making the two widen their eyes. Both glanced at each other and Zabuza narrowed his eyes while he put something in front of Naruto.
"What finger am I holding up?" he asked and Naruto glared while cracking his knuckles.
"You want to keep all five of your fingers right?" Naruto asked making Zabuza snicker. Haku smiled and Naruto grinned.
"Have you guys been here the whole time?" Naruto asked and Haku nodded.
"2 years of just watching Wave. It gets old after a while. Though we can't leave," Haku said to him and Naruto widened his eyes.
"What do you mean?" he asked and Haku sighed.
"We can't live the place where we died from. We can walk around people, but nothing else, but enough about that. Mind telling me how you can see us?" Haku asked and Naruto was about to say something before Zabuza spoke.
"And what were you talking about the last time? That you could revive us? I want to know!" he yelled as he tried to punch Naruto, but only fazed through him making the blonde tilt his head to the side.
"You two won't believe it actually," Naruto said making Haku and Zabuza raise their eyebrows at him before they sat down and let the blonde explain and explain he did as he told them everything that he could. His having the contract with the Shinigami, him almost dying and even him being able to revive people.
"Wow Naruto-san you've really grown into someone fine," Haku said while Zabuza growled.
"What's that damn guy see in you anyway?" he asked and Naruto shrugged his shoulders while he leaned back. He saw Haku lean back also as they looked at the sky.
"I would need to sacrifices for you guys. I've taken the vow to not kill anyone who doesn't deserve it," Naruto said making Haku give a gentle smile. Zabuza seemed to huff, but didn't really care.
"So tell me, how are you guys doing?" Naruto asked them and Haku shuffled lightly in the grass.
"Long story, but we'll tell it as best we can," Haku said to him and Naruto nodded his head and their story began. Night had covered the sky by the time they wee finished and in the end, Naruto was laughing his ass off at them both.
"HAHA! You fazed into the women's hot spring? What the hell Zabuza?" Naruto asked while laughing making the man growl as he folded his arms.
"It's not that damn funny brat!" he yelled and Naruto wiped his eye.
"Oh yes it is. Oh I'm telling that one to Kaa-chan," Naruto said and Haku raised an eyebrow.
"Naruto-kun, who is your Kaa-san? You never did tell us," Haku said to him and Naruto nodded his head as he rubbed the back of his head.
"She was the woman you both saw me with that last time. Her name is Kushina Uzumaki," Naruto said making Haku widen her eyes with a blush while Zabuza pointed at him in an accusing notion.
"Kid you are fucked up! You felt up your own mother?" Zabuza asked and Naruto rolled his eyes at him.
"Yep and no regrets about it," he said with a cheeky smile. Haku stuttered and so did Zabuza, but the smile from Naruto made it quickly dissolve. It was like when he smiled then you couldn't find a way against it. Many people could attest to that.
"Still Kushina Uzumaki. Ne Zabuza-sama isn't she that one that the woman talks about. I think her name was Mei Terumi-sama. We met her once before becoming missing nin," Haku said and Naruto raised an eyebrow.
"That's right. She told about her cousin Kushina, but I had no idea who she was talking about at all," Zabuza said and Naruto looked at them both.
"Umm who are you guys talking about?" Naruto asked and Haku smiled.
"Mei Terumi, she was one of Zabuza-sama's friends that he didn't kill in the exam," Haku said and Zabuza shook his head.
"More like one of the people I couldn't kill at the exam. Ugh damn bitch," Zabuza said with a shudder. Naruto suddenly smiled as he heard that minus the bitch part. He had more family that he didn't know about. First was the likely-hood of Tayuya, then Gaara and now this Mei Terumi woman. Kushina had told Naruto that Tsunade was his cousin while teaching him the history of the Uchiha, Senju and Uzumaki. It made Naruto wonder if he and Sasuke were cousins, but he thought about it later.
"Well I'll have to look into that. I would be nice to meet her, not to mention revive you guys. We never got to talk like this," Naruto said making Zabuza sigh and Haku smile with a nod.
"Well it's late you'd better get some rest Naruto-san before you- huh what's that?" Haku asked looking through the trees and Naruto turned around while Zabuza did the same. They all looked to see two men grinning like mad while they held up their sword. One was carrying a woman and the other was carrying what Naruto could only guess was a child. Naruto widened his eyes and growled while Zabuza huffed. Haku balled her fists and Naruto stood to his feet.
"That was the easiest village we ever raided. I had so much fun killing this bitch's husband. Watching him squirm like a fool. I'm gonna have me some fun tonight," one said and Naruto's hair shadowed his eyes. He balled his fists before chuckling.
"Zabuza, Haku you're about to get revived," Naruto said getting to his feet and he closed his eyes. They returned to their ocean blue color and the blonde quickly grabbed his sword.
The two bandits noticed the blonde walking towards them and grinned.
"Hey buddy got any money on ya? If you do then drop it and get lost or we'll kill you," one of them snickered and Naruto quickly grabbed his sword. He knew he couldn't call Shin until a few more hours, but that could wait.
"Let. Them. Go. Now!" Naruto commanded releasing his Shi no Gyoshi on the two in front of him making them gasp. They could feel the stare of death on them both, but it shocked Naruto when one pulled out a sword and charged him. Naruto narrowed his eyes and quickly blocked the strike to his face while the man smiled.
"Yeah I haven't killed enough yet," he said and Naruto growled as he shoved the man off him and sent him flying into the streets.
"You alright nii-chan?" the man on the ground asked and the older one nodded.
"Guroshi get out of here and leave this brat to me," the man said and his younger brother nodded as he gave him a shuriken.
"Gotcha Aniki. Beat his ass. You're not the A-ranked missing nin Kuroshi for nothing," he said before vanishing in the trees while Naruto narrowed his eyes.
"Kuroshi, why do I know that name?" Naruto asked himself before he took out the bingo book. He scanned through it and before long he narrowed his eyes and sneered.
"Kuroshi Han. A-ranked missing nin. Wanted by Kumo, Kiri and Konoha. Charge: Man-slaughter, thievery, rape, assassination, plundering," Naruto read and closed the book. He growled lowly and gripped his sword hand before he looked up at Kuroshi impassively.
"Your soul is mine!" Naruto said and Kuroshi chuckled.
"Whatever brat, what makes you think that you can fight me?" he asked and Naruto appeared behind him. He gasped at the speed before blocking a kick from Naruto's foot. He quickly took his sword and swung it at Naruto's side, but before long he noticed a clone of the blonde come out of nowhere. It grabbed his arm and tightened its hold while Naruto jumped in the air.
"Kai" He yelled and Kuroshi was engulfed in a massive explosion that destroyed the trees and forest. He quickly landed on the ground only to see that his target was gone and cursed before Naruto was sent flying from a kick and was slammed into a tree. The blonde cursed while Zabuza and Haku growled.
"Haku, go and get that guy's friend. The Uchiha, I don't care how, but do it!" Zabuza ordered and Haku nodded as she floated off. Naruto got to his feet and quickly allowed himself to stand. He saw Kuroshi walking towards him and took an offensive stance. The blonde quickly dashed at Kuroshi and the two clashed as their KI flashed knocking everything out.
"It's great isn't it?" Kuroshi asked and Naruto narrowed his eyes.
"What is?" he asked and Kuroshi chuckled at him before jumping back ending the duel between the two of them. Naruto watched him go before he stopped.
"The fighting. It makes your blood boil doesn't it? Let me feel it some more!" he yelled and he quickly bit his thumb. Naruto was as he traced the blood over his sword and it slowly oozed while the sword glowed in a black aura.
"Kuroshi Kenjutsu: Chiyoru( Black Death Sword Technique: Blood Night)," He yelled and quickly dashed while Naruto brought his sword back. He glared at the man before yelling.
"Uzumaki no Shinigami Kenjutsu: Shi no Mai( Whirlpool's Death God Sword Technique: Dance of Death)," Naruto shouted and the two clashed. They unleashed blow after blow against each other as the sounds of their metal clashing rang throughout the forest. Naruto cursed and quickly jumped in the air over a slash from Kuroshi. The man growled at Naruto before he swung his sword again, but missed the blonde by a margin as he backed up. Naruto quickly threw a kunai before dashing back. He held out his hand and a small sphere came into it. Kuroshi blocked the kunai, but gasped when Naruto quickly appeared in front of him.
"Rasengan," Naruto yelled and slammed Kuroshi in the chest making him spiral across the forest until he slammed into a tree. Naruto glared at him, but knew the man wasn't finished as he brought the blade back.
"Uzu no Fukusu: Idaina Arashi( Whirlpool Revenge: Great Storm)," Naruto yelled and he swung his sword around before sending multiple wind blades at Kuroshi. The man tried to dodge them all, but they were cutting his legs severely before he hid behind a tree. Naruto narrowed his eyes before he used the spirit feature of his eyes. He could see Kuroshi's fire swirling around his heart and noticed it getting dimmer. He narrowed his eyes and smirked.
"Fuuton: Daitoppa( Wind Release: Great Breakthrough)," Naruto yelled sending the winds rushing towards Kuroshi as the forested area erupted. Naruto grinned before he noticed Kuroshi smirking. He opened his hands and put them forward at Naruto.
"Here brat, take this. It's my best technique. Daten-Shi Kourin( Fallen Angel Descent)," the man said as Naruto watched the winds gather into a Kuroshi's hands. The man smiled evilly as the winds lashed out and turned into a dark-grey color.
"Die brat!" he yelled as he sent the fierce attack at Naruto. The blonde widened his eyes before bringing his sword back. He closed his eyes and sighed.
"Everything dies at some point," Naruto said and swung his sword in front of him. He watched as it tore through Kuroshi's attack and slashed directly at the man's chest. Naruto glared and Kuroshi gasped.
"But how? That was my best," he said and Naruto snorted.
"Simple, my blade is leaked with power from the death god. A technique like yours is nothing compared to it," Naruto said before Kuroshi dropped to the ground.
"I won't do it. I won't go alone. I'm taking you with me!" Kuroshi yelled and Naruto widened his eyes before he grabbed the unconscious woman next to him and quickly shot off while Kuroshi exploded. Naruto covered his eyes and escaped. He dropped to the ground and sighed in relief. He sighed and scratched the back of his head. He turned his eyes back to their spirit form and noticed Kuroshi's soul. It was different. It wasn't pure white, but pure black and Naruto stood to his feet.
"By the Death God's judgement I'm going to end you," Naruto said charging at Kuroshi.
"Hey kid wait, let's talk this out. Nooooo!" he shouted as Naruto cut through his soul and watched it absorb into his sword. Naruto growled as he stood to his feet and bit his thumb. He quickly drew it over the seal and sighed.
"Kuchiyose no Jutsu," The blonde said and watched his seal glow. It seemed that Naruto had made the mark and it was the next day even though the moon was out. Naruto sighed in relief and watched as Shin appeared in front of him.
"Shin, I want to revive some people, but make sure that this guy receives the worst punishment you can offer," Naruto said handing out his sword and Shin nodded.
"I see. Very well then. Who would you like to revive?" Shin asked and Naruto smiled.
"Haku Momochi and Zabuza Momochi," Naruto said and Shin nodded. Zabuza widened his eyes at what Naruto said, but even more at the fact that he was staring at death itself. He gulped and watched as Naruto's blade glowed.
"Strike that human," Shin commanded and Naruto turned to Zabuza. He quickly took his sword and before Zabuza could retort he got pierce and gasped, but Naruto watched his the life returned to him and the fire surrounding his heart came in full bloom to a pure white color. Naruto smiled and soon enough, like on cue, Naruto turned to her.
"Haku-chan stand still," Naruto said and he drove his blade through her also. Haku widened her eyes, but felt filled up completely before exhaling a breath. Soon enough, Haku dropped onto solid ground while Shin took one soul that Naruto had slain or indirectly slain.
"I still need one more soul," Shin said and Naruto cursed before he heard someone.
"Hey loser, what's with all the racket and who is this guy?" Sasuke asked dropping a beaten up Guroshi front of Naruto while the blonde turned around.
"I can explain!" Naruto said and the Uchiha raised an eyebrow.
"What are you talking about? Explain what?" Sasuke asked and Naruto widened his eyes before turning around.
"He can't see you?" Naruto asked and Shin folded his arms.
"I can become invisible to people if I want to. It's my choice," Shin said and Naruto nodded before his eyebrow twitched as he walked up to Guroshi.
"I would've liked to have known that sooner Kuso," He said as he drew his sword while the man panicked.
"Don't kill me!" he said and Naruto narrowed his eyes.
"Try saying that to the man you kill. I think you just might be able to," Naruto said and slashed through Guroshi. It wasn't externally, but Naruto drew his soul out and walked towards the Shinigami. All this in Sasuke's eyes was nonsense since he couldn't see what the hell was going on for the life of himself.
"Second soul. Here you go," Naruto said and Shin nodded.
"Contract agreement," he said and took the soul of the bandit while Naruto smirked. Soon Haku and Zabuza materialized and completely dropped to the ground.
"Welcome back," Naruto said and Sasuke widened his eyes as Zabuza and Haku clearly appeared out of nowhere.
"What the-," he spoke while Haku touched her body. Zabuza did the same and both turned. They didn't something that Naruto didn't expect and bowed.
"Thank you Shinigami-sama," They said and Naruto widened his eyes.
"Say wha?" Naruto asked and soon he looked at his body which was glowing in white fire. The same spiritual fire that he had been trying to use in his training as the Shinigami's summoner. Sasuke watched it all go down before the flames stopped and were channeled into Naruto's body. The blonde felt good, better than good. He felt...incredible.
"What is this?" Naruto wondered to himself before the Shinigami spoke.
"Naruto Uzumaki, your title has just increased. Before you were a mere Tamashi( Soul), but now by the dead and your abilities you are recognized as a Shikon( Death Soul). I'll be expecting more interesting things from you," Shin said before leaving the blonde and Naruto widened his eyes while Zabuza and Haku stood to their feet. Naruto turned around and grinned at an utterly confused Sasuke.
"Now do you believe me?" he asked with his eyes showing their exquisite design. It was hard to believe that it wasn't a dojutsu, but Naruto's own spiritual powers as a new Soul.
"Zabuza, Haku go get the woman and child. We'll take them back to the house," Naruto said making the two nod in utter obedience as they collected the two and shot off for the nearest house that they knew about while Naruto walked past Sasuke. The Uchiha grabbed his shoulder making him turn around.
"What the hell are you?" he asked and Naruto smiled.
"I'm...the summoner of the Shinigami. Now come on. We have to go now," Naruto said and walked back to the house. Sasuke stared wide eyed at him before he just walked away with Naruto.
Tsunami's House
The middle aged woman was currently washing some dishes while humming before she heard the door open. She saw Naruto come through with a smile on his face and she smiled back before she noticed Zabuza and Haku who were carrying a woman and a child.
"Sorry Tsunami-san, but we're going to need your couch for a moment," Naruto said and Tsunami just nodded and watched as Haku and Zabuza placed the woman and girl on the couch.
"Haku, Zabuza go get your things or what you can find. You hold no affliction to any village, but I know where you'll fit in perfectly," Naruto said with a grin making Haku and Zabuza nod.
"Don't order me around Gaki!" Zabuza said before leaving and Naruto sighed. Win some, lose some. He would take what he could get.
The blonde leaned on the wall and sighed as he examined the woman. She looked like a shinobi, but he wasn't sure. She had vibrant red hair flowing down her body and wore a standard sleeveless blouse and under that was a sleeved shirt that was probably from housework. She was just in her teens like him. He then looked at the girl and titled his head to the side. The girl had only a small pad of red hair like the woman next to her. She wore some simple clothes befitting a girl at the age of ten.
Naruto turned around to see Sasuke looking at them also and the blonde sighed.
"I don't know when they will wake up, but we'll get some rest. Sasuke, you got to bed," Naruto said and the Uchiha narrowed his eyes, but a glare from Naruto stopped him from pursuing the issue anymore. Naruto told the same thing to Tsunami, Haku and Zabuza, who returned with only a few things. Tsunami left the light on and Naruto leaned against the wall.
Two Hours Later
The teenage girl with red hair groaned an opened her eyes before she remembered what happened. She got up frantically and looked around.
"Where am I?" she wondered before she heard a voice.
"You in this house," Naruto said making her turn around. The blonde immediately noticed that she glared at him and took out a kunai.
"Don't come near me!" she yelled and Naruto raised his hands defensively. She raised an eyebrow before the blonde reached for his sword. She tensed, but watched him unfurl it from his waist and drop it to the ground.
"Easy alright? I'm not gonna hurt you. I took care of those two assholes who had you guys. Are you alright?" Naruto making sure not to lose his eye contact with the girl. She narrowed her eyes and slightly relaxed, but kept her guard up. She lowered the kunai and Naruto sighed.
"Where am I?" she asked and Naruto raised an eyebrow.
"You're in a house in Nami no Kuni. Where are you from?" Naruto asked her and the woman sighed as she rubbed her head.
"I'm from Yu no Kuni( Hot Springs Country). How many days has it been since I've been knocked out," she asked and Naruto shook his head.
"I wouldn't know. I just found you four or five hours ago," Naruto said and she sighed while the blonde rested his body on the wall again.
"Alright I won't hurt you so tell me your name. What happened to you and who that is," Naruto pointing to the sleeping girl next to her. She glared, but nodded and sighed.
"My name is Yura Uzumaki. This next to me is my sister Yuri Uzumaki," She said and Naruto widened his eyes as he backed up. Yura raised an eyebrow while the blonde backed away. He fell to the ground and gasped.
"Y-You're who now?" he asked and she raised an eyebrow.
"I'm Yura Uzumaki and this is Yuri Uzumaki," she said while the blonde gasped. He pointed his finger at her while shaking slightly.
"Name? What is your parents name?" he asked and she sighed.
"Toru Uzumaki and Kira Fukune," she said making the blonde sighed and stand to his feet while Yura raised an eyebrow.
"Is there a problem?" she asked and Naruto smiled as he erased the distance and grabbed her hands.
"Family. I've got more family. Hey, I'm Naruto Uzumaki," the blonde said and Yura widened her eyes at his word. Another Uzumaki? What where the chances of this?
"You're lying," she said and Naruto shook his head while she stood to his feet. She examined him up and down before pointing to his hair.
"Where's the red hair?" she asked and Naruto rubbed the back of his head.
"Father had blonde hair so that's it for me," he said to her and Yura widened her eyes. They both heard Yuri yawn slightly and the blonde sighed.
"Well you must be tired. I'll let you sleep," Naruto said and Yura sighed as she was very tired.
"Thank you I guess. I'll be expecting information tomorrow Nii-san," she said falling asleep and Naruto grinned as he turned out the lights. He so couldn't wait to tell his mother about this. She would be ecstatic.
Naruto: Break's over! Back to work.
KG: Dammit. "Ahhh Yura-san, Yura-san what lights through yonder window breaks. It is the east and Yura-chan is the west,"
Yura: Ahh KG-kun, KG-kun, I- WHAT THE HELL IS THIS!

Naruto: Well yeah this is a freakin drama little sis.

Yura: You saying you don't want to kiss me? I'm not good enough for you now?
KG: I never said that. (Thoughts) I might think it though.
Yura: I bet you've never kissed a girl before!
KG: I TOTALLY HAVE!

Naruto: Whoa!
Kushina: Oh my.

Both of us: Wow (Thoughts) that was the best kiss of my life.
Naruto: Alright people places.
