Unknown time, somewhere between Konoha and The Land of Waves. Naruto's POV

I throw off my weights as Kurama and I give chase to the ROOT that have made off with my best friend and girlfriend Yorokobi. It's one thing to try to kill me. It's another to kidnap an innocent civilian who happens to be my girlfriend to draw me out and then try to kill me. This won't be forgiven. I summon the sweetest sword I can muster: A 36 inch katana with a black hilt, with a black blade with orange edge. On the blade in orange kanji reads "The Black Kitsune". I sharpen the blade with chakra. Kurama pulls out his crimson blade. 

"I can sense their chakra 300 yards northeast of here. There are 4 of them, get ready." Kurama says. 

"Okay." I reply as I form a Rasengan with my left hand. We hit the camp going incredibly fast. I slash into the first ROOT, but it's a substitution. I duck the 3 shuriken that come flying toward me. The first ROOT strikes my chin, and I turn into a puff of smoke. Shadow clone. I thrust the Rasengan into his spine and it cracks. I stab my sword through his neck. I surround the second with shadow clones. She makes quick work of them. I grab a kunai and put a paper bomb on it. I clash swords with her a couple times, then drop the kunai underneath us. I substitute myself with a shadow clone. The paper bomb explodes, blowing one of her legs off. Kurama decapitates her. We clean our swords, and untie Yoro-hime, who is blindfolded and tied to a tree. I'm glad she was blindfolded so she didn't have to see that. 

"OHMYGOODNESSYORO-HIMEIWASSOWORRIEDWHATHAPPENEDAREYOUOKAYWHATCANIDOTOHELPIMSORRYISHOULDVEKEPTYOUCLOSERINEVERWANTYOUTOLEAVEMYSIDEAGAINOKAY?" I say in a relieved panic.

"Jeez Naru-kun I didn't even get a word of that. I'm okay, just glad to be back with you." She replies with a smile.

"Yeah, yeah, that's cute and everything, but after that I've decided we aren't going to go to bed until we get to The Land of Waves. We have to keep moving. Danzo will send more the next time. We need help from the townspeople of The Land of Waves. We are going to walk through the night. We are off course, so we'll have to row in." Kurama tells us. We moan and groan a little bit, but it is what it is. We start walking again after I re-apply my weights, which are now at about 75 pounds (34 kilograms). I also put Yorokobi on my back as I cannot lose my smol bean. We are all tired, but we push on, determined to make it to The Land of Waves before the enormous wave of ROOT arrive. 

--------------------------------------------------- about 8 am, just outside Land of Waves, Naruto's POV

Tired, bruised, scratched, and aching, I row the small boat summoned by Kurama across the clear waters outside the Land of Waves. I across from me sits Yorokobi, asleep, her scarlet hair glistening in the light of the rising sun.  To my left sits Kurama, also rowing away. 

"Half a mile, Kit. We're so nearly there." He says with a grunt.

"My arm is going to fall off Kura. My right arm is going to be in this water in 5 minutes. I will have to live without my dominant arm for the remainder of my life. All because of you." I complain.

"Oh you poor baby. For the first 200 years of my life I couldn't turn into a human, which means guess what? No opposable thumbs! You can't even fathom how difficult it was to grab things! 200 years, Kit! That's like 13 times your age! UUUGGGGGGGGHHHH!" Kurama rambles. He then continues to ramble about this subject for the next 3 minutes. Not worth it. We pull up to the docks of the Land of Waves. Better wake the slumbering demon.

"Psst! Yoro! We're here! PPPSSSSSSSTTT! YORO!" I whisper in her ear.

"I'M AWAKE DANGIT!" She shrieks. I run off the boat faster than you can say "Wow Naru is sooo dead". Kurama is already off, and crouched behind a full fishing net. We hop off the boat and look at the hustle and bustle of the Land of Waves.

-----------------------Chapter End-------------------------------------

Hey everyone. Two chapters today cuz yall deserve it. I'm sorry about being silent so long.

ALSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO (pls read it's important)

There has been a LOOOOT  of swearing going on in the comments and it's getting excessive. I don't like yall swearing all over the comments section, SSOOOOOO I've decided to issue a CHALLENGE. To make it more fun, I'd like it if everyone would try to instead of swearing, come up with the most creative and hilarious insults you can. I think it would build more positivity, and I think it would be more enjoyable for everyone.

Thanks,
