Natural Disaster:
Crimson eyes stared across the roaring waterfall at the closest thing that could be called family. Even in this state it was hard to feel the desire to destroy the winged monstrosity that was once Sasuke Uchiha, who glared across right back at him with inhuman gray sharingan eyes. Not that he could call himself anything less then a monster right now. He could feel the razor sharp fangs that protruded from his mouth, the chaotic red chakra that had somehow condensed itself into a solid form. Kitsune demon, that's what the called him. And now looking down at his reflection in the waters he found himself hard pressed to disagree with them.
"Teme." Even his voice sounded demonic, not that that should have surprised him. But to hear the double vocal coming from one's own mouth was a different matter all together. "Why teme, why would do this to the village? To Sakura-Chan?!" He roared ignoring the wince of pain that wracked his body, his left arm going near dead from the tearing of demonic chakra. Though even as he spoke he concentrated the wind into a ball in his right arm, using his enhanced charka to pull it in and then force it to remain in a ball by double layering it with his demonic chakra. Though even as he created the perverted form of his idol's signature move, he couldn't bring himself to care, all that mattered to him now was dragging his brother home kicking and screaming if he had too.
"Baka." Even it was a small amount, Naruto felt a pang of happiness that Sasuke's voice suffered the same detraction that his own was forced to endure at the sake of backing down. "I can't grow stronger in that village. I've tasted power, power I need to avenge my clan." For a moment Sasuke lowered his eyes and though his voice was barely a whisper, the bakemono's chakra that ran through his veins and chakra coils gave him the hearing needed to pick up the ghost toned words.
"I can't go back, not now, not like this." Sasuke now finished must have regained control of his emotions because no sooner did he finish that jabbing his left hand downwards and cupping it at the wrist with his right hand, the cry of a chidori being born filled the air. And just as Naruto degraded a move he couldn't rightfully call his own, Sasuke pulled his left arm away and forced the cursed seal's power into it, the once pure blue-white light darkened to a sickening purple and the cry of birds retracted into the sound of wings. Naruto forced his own soul down and encased it demonic chakra, and Sasuke allowed an evil seal to take his innocence away. How fitting was it that their power reflected that.
"Sasuke." Naruto said feeling a foreign power well up in his body. Something was thrashing around in his soul, not that he needed someone to tell him what that something was. The demon fox that resided him had come to life and was once again attempting to force its way out of his body. And quite the time to do it indeed, when his soul was repressed by his own will. "Don't make me kill you." The words slipped from him before he could control himself, and somehow they hadn't left a bad taste in his mouth.
"Funny." Came Sasuke's reply and even from the distance Naruto could see his legs bunched up and his wings spread open. "I was about to tell you the same thing." And with that Sasuke launched himself across the clearing, and Naruto forced his chakra downwards to repel him from the surface to meet him in mid-air. The challenge was set, and now as was before their movement left no room for turning back now. It was funny; it had been several times now they had met each other like this. Best friends, ready to shove pure power into each other's body for the sake of what they cared for. And as both pushed their power and desired forwards to meet the other's head-on, Naruto couldn't help but wonder if this right. But as the world around him erupted in light, and he felt an odd detachment to himself he knew he it really didn't matter now.
With a smirk she watched as power lanced from her body and slammed into the now glowing Avatar. It had been the power that the boy controlled in his body that had stopped it from ripping clear through his other side, the only thing. And just as the arrows that marked the boy stopped glowing the space around him exploded into a purple dome. Brows furrowed in thought at a possible threat or that her power somehow enhanced the young avatar's; she cocked her fingers back ready for another shot. However when the dome collapse though, two forms fell from its protective bubble. The Avatar her original target and an orange clad blonde. However she had little time to react to this as the water tribeswoman had sprung into action riding a tidal wave in a haste to catch the young Avatar. Cursing as the wave over washed her brother and the Dai Lai she moved to intercept them but the blonde haired boy had sprung to action, in a move that despite what she would admit later caught of seriously off-guard. He seemed to fly.
It felt odd to him, the feeling of power that over washed his body as he and Sasuke met each other head on. If he could describe it in words, it wasn't in his ability to do so. But the feeling was there and powerful, though just as quickly as it came it had gone, along with everything else that he could see, including Sasuke. Swallowed up in a purple void, and then darkness surrounded him.
"Curious young mortal." A voice spoke out in the utter nothing that stretched out as far as the eye could see, however it hadn't come from the rolling demonic tone he had been expecting from the Obake sealed within his soul. But from a female's voice instead and just as soon as he realized it, a woman appeared in front of him. The dress reminded him of an old fashion western woman, though highly doubted they wear that deep red satin in such a fashion. The dark red hair that covered the woman's scalp was a fitting match for her dress, tied up in a bun with several strands of it falling free in both thin and thick variety. Dark red furred fox ears jutted out from the nicely done bun, one of which had a jewel lined band holding it in place.
"Kyuubi." Naruto stammered falling back a step, eyes locked on the swishing crimson tails that danced behind the woman. An alabaster white hand was removed from the fur pouch in which they had been kept and brought to the woman's scarlet painted lips, and a chuckle seemed to shake her body. Garnet colored iris nearly closed from the woman's smile that danced across her face, Naruto himself had been rather proud of his foxy smile but this was a true genius at work here.
"Curious young mortal indeed." With that the hand was removed and she took a few steps forward closing the distance between them at her leisure. A hand touched Naruto's shoulder and he looked up startled only to see the same woman that had just been in front of him standing beside him, her elongated blood red-nails cupping around his shoulders in a protective manner he would say had it been anyone or thing else. "Though to be honest, as things are now that is an injustice to you." It said in almost an after-thought to itself.
"I thought…" Naruto began trying to put more resolve in his voice then he really contained, but then again when the most powerful demon in existence was draped across your arm with no means of protecting yourself in sight fear was standard issue protocol.
"I was male?" She finished for him, raising an elegant eyebrow and suppressing her mirth at his expense again. "I'm a Tenko, I have no such gender. Though I chose female because this form has brought many laughs when dealing with mortals." She said swishing her tails back and forth in no particular direction, something he figured she long grown accustom too, something Naruto himself doubted he would be able to do because of his natural playful nature.
"But enough of that for now, Naruto-kun." To hear his words spoken from a well over thousand year old demon was both comforting and yet highly disturbing, and he couldn't help but wonder if the creature's chakra had something to do with the comforting feeling. "It appears I have done you a major disservice. And therefore I'm within your debt to a great extent." A soft sigh was followed here as the creature continued to steer them both into straight nothing.
"What kind of disservice Kyuubi-sempai." Naruto replied keeping in step with the creature's rather wide stride. If the Tenko noticed the suffix it made no outward shock or disgust towards it, Naruto just believed there wasn't a reason not to be civil if the spirit was the first one to make an effort. However if it was design or chance, Naruto's reply came with the world around them becoming lined with stars and a stellar purple path way appearing under their feet.
"It appears I've passed the burden of my job onto your shoulders." It said simply keeping its movements in such precise steps; he wandered for a second if it had not been blind to miss the changing of surroundings. "What that job is, however I can not tell you at this point in time. However know that I have complete faith that you'll be able to carry it out. Despite what you may think when you realize it." Here she paused and looked down at him, elongated canines gleaming in the dim light supplied by the stars around them. And Naruto couldn't help but feel a sense of dread.
"I'm not going to attack my-" Again Naruto was cut short mid angry rant by a single slender digit pressed against his lips. Cyan eyes glaring back at the ruby eyes that regarded him with mild-amusement. Had he not been sure that the creature would rip him to shreds he would have loved nothing more then to slam his fist into that ever grinning face of its.
"I'll choose my words carefully when regarding that village of ours." She said flicking her tails around his shoulders and turning his face towards the left side of the glittering purple path and into the stars. Though before he could protest the action an image surfaced out of thin air, Sasuke's limp body being drenched by rain. A few seconds ticked by before his Jounin instructor Kakashi Hatake landed next to the boy, took one look at him and scooped him in his arms. The small pug that was Pakkun followed a few seconds afterwards and seemed to be searching for something, making its small nose take several whiffs of air.
"I can barely smell Naruto-san now. The rain is taking away his scent." It said sitting on all fours for a moment to catch its breath. "We better hurry; he might be injured or captured." Pakkun said in a grim tone ready to spring itself back into motion.
"No, we get Sasuke back to the leaf and send a team after Naruto." Kakashi said, turning his attention from the boy in his arms for a moment to look at the nin-dog. "I'm sure the Hokage will be willing to send someone else once I report." And with that the man took off back into the trees, with Pakkun remaining silent chasing after him. Several emotions conflicted with Naruto as he watched the image fade to black and several emotions once again rise within him. Joy that his mission was completed, sorrow that he hadn't been able to drag him back like had promised, and rage at being just another face for the sake of Sasuke again.
"I believe that bloodline of Uchiha is to blame." The Tenko mused lightly to itself as it watched the boy struggle with his own internal strife. Of course it didn't reveal to the youngling that it; itself had altered that little memory play. Not that the boy would know the difference anyhow as his body was ready leaving that plane by then. In fact Hatake-san seemed almost beside himself with Naruto's whereabouts, even going as far as to threaten the still prone Uchiha boy with execution on the spot if he didn't start talking. But such truths held no place in its plans so honesty gave way to twisted logic.
"Even…" Naruto began keeping his head down in aims to gather back his resolve despite his quickly weakening spirit. "Even if I have to do it alone. I will become Hokage." He said clutching his shaking fist and glaring back up at the Kyuubi, who in spite of itself took a step back as the once peaceful blues remaindered her of staring into Kami herself. "Not even you can stop me." The boy declared staring defiantly at the fox spirit, who once again smiled.
"You'll find becoming Hokage nay impossible from a different world." The Tenko said with a sly grin watching the boy's defiant stare turn into one of horror and confusion. "But out time is nearly up for now. You'll awaken soon, so I'll get straight to the point." The peaceful and grinning face melted away and the creature's aura roared to life and her eyes bore into his own. "Tell no-one of your origins once you awaken again, it will do more harm then good. And don't attempt to use your chakra you'll find it isn't here in this world. And even if it was, you couldn't possible hope to control it now as evolved into something beyond your control as is." Naruto frowned at the words wondering just what in the hells the creature meant. And as he started to voice those two curious things happened at once. The creature vanished and he found himself staring up at a massive figure of what he could only guess as a boy his age, with glowing arrows and eyes setting the space around them with light. The enormous figure holding a purple sphere of spinning energy with a small more human version of itself in the middle of it. Or rather the boy in the sphere had somehow created a rather large image of himself. Whatever the case, the boy's body when rigid began, falling both forms of himself and with it Naruto found he falling as well.
And then his body hit hard floor and he felt the air rush from his body upon impact. The ground itself had felt hot and cracked in several places that now pressed into his flesh. Shaking he pulled himself to his feet to come face to face with a rushing tidal wave, with though it seemed odd a woman riding on it as one might a horse or something.
"Don't just stand there mortal. Defend yourself." The Tenko's voice echoed in his head and as if someone shoved a solider pill down his throat his body became more alert and posed for action. Shino-bi training kicked in and he scanned the area around himself in impressive detail in a single glance. He was underground from the cavern looking surroundings complete with rock formations growing from the ceiling and bright green crystals growing in clusters at random spots through the clearing. A natural waterfall came rushing into the clearing near by, and the banks on either side were man made. There were several people in front of him, most of which were dressed dark green uniforms. A boy with the left side of his face horribly scarred faced him down as well in an unusual Tai-Jutsu stance, apparently they were just as confused at seeing him as he was them because they didn't notice the massive wave of water until it had over taken them.
"Alright take down the girl then." Naruto commanded himself after seeing the action. The boy and men that lined out behind him didn't seem to completely facing him; just their heads turned but their stance and boy was more like facing someone to the right of him. Chancing a glance down to the right he noticed the bald boy from his encounter with the Kyuubi. The giant scorch mark in his back didn't go unnoticed, though after seeing that huge being of power he couldn't help but agree a frontal attack just wasn't the way to go. Turning his attention back to girl who was closing in he eyed the ceiling just behind her and then directly above himself.
"Alright, frontal attacks are no good." Ducking down and gathering strength to his legs he threw himself in a near vertical back-flip, tucking his body in and causing more rotations and speed. The spot he was aiming for was nearly twenty feet above him a pretty decent leap from his stand point, but he didn't have time to worry about how cool he just looked but instead as his feet touched rock pushed himself across to the next one. Pulling a kunai from his near empty sack reminding himself to replenish that nearest chance or if he even survived this. Digging his kunai into the next hanging rock formation he used it to make a semi-circle mid leap now a good sixty degrees behind the girl, he leapt again. Kicking away at the piece of rock and sending it clear away from its top half at his point of entry into it with his kunai. Caught up in the heated of the moment he forgot the Kyuubi's warning and began gathering chakra to his right hand that he stuck out in front of himself. Hoping he still had enough of the creature's chakra to do it with-out the use of a shadow clone again. Only when there should have been a tug at his chakra reserves, instead he found the wind itself reacting to his call. The normal blue sphere of compressed chakra and wind was replaced by a ball of whipping air without a trace of blue in sight. Figuring a defective Rasengen was better then nothing Naruto continued his attack, or he would have had not his world turned bright orange and red as fire engulfed him.
