Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ Rekindled Flame ❯ CHapter II ( Chapter 2 )

Chapter II

 

* Last Time*

 

Once everyone calmed down she told them all that they needed to train and to tell everyone else to do the same. When everyone left, Tsunade thought to herself on what the stranger had said, and was trying to figure out who he was; then it came to her. She was shocked beyond belief and in the quite of her own office she said the name that she thought she was never going to say again. She looked up at the seat that the stranger was just sitting in moments ago and said the name out loud with a hint of shock in her voice.

 

“Naruto….”

 

* Now *

 

Tsunade was about to cry her eyes out when she came to that realization of what she had just said. Although she had to hold it in just for a little bit longer because someone had just knocked on her office door. When she looked up to see who it was she saw Jiraiya walking into her office.

 

When Jiraiya saw that Tsunade's eyes were all watery like she was going to cry he, immediately that something was wrong. Tsunade looked up at Jiraiya and noticed that he was not saying anything then she noticed that he looked worried and then she realized that it looked like she was going to cry. She just smiled a little and shooked her head.

 

“He's back Jiraiya, he's finally back.”

 

“What do you mean HE is back….. you mean”

 

“Yes I'm Naruto is finally back in the village, but something is different about him, he is not the same hyperactive, loud mouth shinobi of Konoha, he's more I don't know how to say it he's just different.”

 

“What do you mean different, like give me an example of how he is different.”

 

“He is calmer than he was before and he seems a little bit more cunning and strategic then what he used to be.”

 

“Well that is really different than what he used to act like.”

 

“Also when I say him it didn't seem like he came back because he wanted to but he came back to warn me that a battle is coming.”

 

“What do you mean a battle is coming?”

 

“I mean that the Atsuki and Orochimaru have joined forces and are planning an attack on Konoha, but he didn't really say when they were going to attack the village just that they were going to.”

 

“Well did you at least ask him how he had found out this information in the first place?”

 

“All he said was that it was none of my business on how he had gotten it.”

 

“Tsunade, do you know where he is right now?”

 

“No, before I got to ask him he had already disappeared.”

 

“Well I'm going to go and see if I can find him anywhere in the village, and ask if anybody knows if they have seen them.”

 

“I really don't think that he stayed in the village, the best place that I would look is in the Forest of Death.”

 

“I'll keep that in mind.”

 

Jiraiya walked out of her office starting his search for Naruto so that hopefully he could get some answers form him that Tsunade could not. Unfortunately he had no such luck in finding Naruto and he searched every nook and cranny of the village and the forest, he even asked people if they say anybody walking around with a cape on, but nobody had seen him.

 

Jiraiya was a little discouraged that he could not find him but then he saw a shadowy figure in an ally way out of the corner of his eye. He decided that he would go and see who it is or what it was even though his gut was telling him not to go.

 

When he looked in the ally he saw that there was no body there, but as he was walking out of the ally someone grabbed him from behind and pulled him back in. When he looked back to see who had him the person whispered into his ear.

 

“Don't say a word or move and we wont hurt you, all you have to do is answer a few of our questions.”

 

Now by this time Jiraiya was starting to get a little worried because he was not able to scene the person that had a hold of him. Right when he was about to comment he felt a kunai pressed up against his back.

“Good now that we have your attention well start asking our questions. Do you know where our mast…. I mean Naruto is?”

 

“Why are you looking for Naruto and who are you?”

 

The stranger pushed, what Jiraiya thought was a kunai, to his throat.

 

“What did I tell about speaking when you are not supposed to. All you have to do is answer our questions and that it, and if you don't that I will just kill you right now.”

 

Jiraiya just shook his head ok and waited for them to say if he could talk yet.

 

“Now I don't like to repeat myself so just answer my question.”

 

“I don't know where Naruto is, I was just looking for him not to long ago.”

 

“Well then I guess since you did answer my question so I won't kill you like I promised.”

 

With that the strangers left without even leaving a smoke cloud, they just left out of thin air. Jiraiya was a little shook up about the whole ordeal, but he knew that he had to go and tell Tsunade about what had just happened to him and how those people are looking for Naruto. He started to run through the village with a worried look on his face, the villagers were looking at him wired. Jiraiya slammed Tsunade's door open. Tsunade sat up really fast in shock and just stared at him.

 

“What is the matter Jiraiya?”

 

“We have a problem.”

 

“What is it?”

 

“There are some really powerful strangers in the village and they are looking for Naruto.”

 

“Well did you at least try to stop them?”

 

“I couldn't, they just snuck up on me out of no where; I couldn't even sense their chakara when they were behind me.”

 

“So what you are telling me is that there are strangers in our village that are stronger than you and that they are looking for Naruto right at this very moment in the village?”

 

“Hai.”

 

“Well this is a problem that we have. Jiraiya your new mission is to find Naruto before they do and see if you can get some answers out of him.”

 

*With Naruto *

 

As Naruto was walking through the forest he had taken his hood off and if you were to walk by and see him you would have to think that it was another person. Over the years Naruto has changed in the way that he looks, now he still has his blonde hair but now it is longer, to his waist, with red strikes in it. His eyes are different, one eye is still the same blue that looks like a cats eye, while the other on is purple and looks like a cats eye. He still has the whisker marks on his face but now they are just darker than what they were. He also has fox ears on top of his head along with nine tails.

 

While Naruto was walking through the Forest of Death, he felt some people coming up behind him. At first Naruto stiffened, but then he realized who they were. He was a little shocked that they would come all this way, but he knew that if they did come all this way then it had to be something important. Naruto had stopped his walking and waited for them to come to him. When they got there they all bowed on one knee.

 

“Guys you know that you don't have to do that to me.” They just chuckled at him and stood up.

 

“Well Naruto we had to come and see how you were doing.”

 

“I'm doing fine as you can tell and I'm also having a blast tricking my friends.”

 

“What do you mean?”

 

“Well I haven't told any of them who I was, though I do think that the old hag finally figured out who I was, but anyways none of them know that I am a demon now and some of them think that I'm a huge threat to the village.”

 

Everyone that was listening to Naruto busted out laughing at what Naruto had to say. Of course Naruto was not a threat to the village because he just went there and told them about an attack that was going to happen to them not to long from now. They were also laughing at how none of the ninjas in the village could sense that he was a demon.

 

“Ok guys enough with the laughing. You guys can't just tell me that you came all this way just to see if I was ok. Is there anything wrong going on back home?”

 

“Hai there is something going on back home that might need you to look after.”

 

“Well what is it?”

 

“….. There has been some fighting going on back home about how you just up and left the village and there is also someone trying to get into our village.”

 

“Is that all?”

 

“Hai.”

 

“Well you can go back to the village and tell them that I am just fine and that I'm settling something with a human village, and as for the person that is trying to get into the village just kill them.”

 

“Hai Naruto, we will be off then.”

 

They all left with out a trace except for one. He was that one that Naruto was talking to, his name is Saki. He pulled off his hood and smiled at Naruto. Saki had long blood red hair that had some of it pulled up into a pony tail while the rest hung down to the middle of his back. His eyes were red with little specks of silver in them. On top of his head you could see wolf ear pop out of his hair and if you were to look under his cloak you could see a tail that was swing back and forth. Naruto looked at Saki with a smile on his face.

 

“Is there a reason why you decided to stay nii-san?”

 

“I am going to stay to keep you company and to look after you oh and also because I want to fight.”

 

“Why do I need looking after?”

 

“Because knowing you I know that you are going to get your self into trouble.”

 

“I will not!”

 

“Hey you never know.”

 

Naruto and Saki laughed together (AN: Just to say something Naruto and Saki adopted each other as brothers) for a while, but then they heard someone coming up to them from behind so they pulled their hoods back up over their heads. They had hidden themselves in the trees as someone appeared right where they were standing. When they looked down they could see that it was Jiraiya along with Kakashi, Sasuke and Sakura.

 

Naruto looked over at Saki and spoke to him through telepathy.

 

`Saki I want you to stay right here while I go and talk to them ok.'

 

`Why Naruto-kun, can't I please come with you?'

 

`No let me talk to them first ok?'

 

`Fine.'

 

Saki sat where he was with a cute pout on his face as he watched Naruto jump off of the branch that they were on. Naruto had landed behind them with out making a sound, just so that he could scare the shit out of them.

 

“Hey are you looking for me?”

 

Jiraiya, Kakashi, Sasuke and Sakura all jumped away and pulled out a weapon ready to fight whoever was behind them. When Jiraiya say that it was Naruto or who he hoped was Naruto, he put down his weapon.

 

“Hai Naruto we are looking for you.”

 

Kakashi, Sasuke and Sakura were all shocked that the person that was standing in front of them was the same Naruto that they knew five years ago. They all put their weapons down and were all think of something different about the Naruto that was standing in front of them, but the main thing that they were thinking was that they finally had Naruto back with them. They were all shaken from their thoughts when Naruto started to speak.

 

“Well what is it that you need?”

 

“Right, well Tsunade wants to see you right away in her office.”

 

“What does she want?”

 

“She has some questions that she would like to ask of you.”

 

“That's fine but I will not be going to see her alone.” He said with a smirk on his face.

 

They were all confused at first that is until someone appeared behind Naruto and wrapped their arms around his waist. They were all shocked but there was also one person that was angry, and that was Sasuke and the thought that was running through his head was that `THAT IS MY NARU—KUN!!!'
