Chapter 38: Return
"I'll kill you too!" Shisui looked back at Naruto, a wide grin spreading across his face.
"Yes! You're back! You're finally back!" He exclaimed, unconstrained excitement on his face. "We can finally move on with our plans!" Naruto glared at Shisui disdainfully, Ellie's blood still fresh on his face.
"I have no intention in furthering your filthy Uchiha plans." He took out his sword, lightning dancing across the blade as he looked at Komihoro, who just stared at the dead body of his life long comrade. "You're next." Komihoro did nothing to stop as Naruto lopped off his head with his sword, killing him instantly as his body fell to the ground, his head rolling.
"Naruto, is that really you?" Sasuke asked, taking several steps back at the sudden return on his lifelong friend that was supposedly dead. "I don't understand, you're supposed to be-"
"Dead?" Naruto questioned, finishing Sasuke's statement. "Yeah that's a no. If only I had died that night," He felt a sudden chakra burst come from behind him and he ducked under Shisui's blade before swiping the man's feet from under him, causing him to hit the ground with a loud thump. "Which reminds me,"
Flashback
"Naruto Hatake, I must insist that you die."
The masked man rushed Naruto, a chakra rod in hand as he went to stab him in the stomach, but Naruto barely dodged it, it scraping his stomach just a little.
"Who are you?" Naruto asked as he clutched his bleeding eye after sending out another Amaterasu, his chakra low.
"Like I said before," The masked man said as he landed a kick on Naruto as Shisui sent a fire jutsu at the fourteen-year-old who barely evaded it. "I'm just a wanderer."
"Bullshit, I've done something to you for you to want to kill me, who are you?" The man ducked under Naruto's punch and swung his chakra rod up, the sharp end cutting deeply into Naruto's face from his right cheek to his upper eyebrow.
"Urggghh," Naruto grunted, clutching his face as blood seeped from his wound. It didn't hit his eye, so he was lucky that he wasn't blind right now. "Bastard!" He used the last of his chakra to activate his grey Susanoo as he grabbed ahold of the mask man and his eyes widened as blood poured down them like waterfalls. "You. . ."
A large green hand punched the grey Susanoo, causing it to release the masked man and revealing Shisui standing in the middle of a half completed Susanoo.
The masked man did a few hand seals before nodding to Shisui, who nodded in return as three beads appeared in the large green hand of chakra before he threw it at Naruto, who tried to shield himself, but failed as the three beads hit him.
"Yasaka Beads!' Shisui shouted as they exploded while the masked man finished his jutsu and blew the biggest fireball Shisui has ever seen, enveloping the massive explosion and the Susanoo Naruto was in, smoke expanding everywhere while Shisui and the masked man waited to see what the result was.
When the smoke settled, they saw Naruto standing there, burn marks on his clothes as his arm was broken, hanging loosely at the side of his body.
"He is persistent don't you think?" The masked man commented as Shisui stood next to him. Shisui nodded, agreeing with him.
"He's strong as well. He has conviction." The masked man nodded.
"Indeed he does." He muttered, more to himself than to Shisui. "We've been watching him for a long time, do you think he's the one?" He asked the man next to him, who thought for a moment before speaking.
"I do. He's the one who will fulfill the plan." The masked man nodded once again before he began walking towards Naruto, his black rod in hand.
"Then let us get started." Naruto ran up to him, trying to deliver a punch to the masked man's face, but the masked man easily dodged and stabbed him in the gut with the chakra rod, causing Naruto to spit up blood.
He kicked him off the chakra rod and watched as Naruto land on his back. "You have felt emotional pain Hatake, now feel physical." He then stabbed Naruto over and over and over again in his limbs and stomach, ignoring the boy's screams and cries as blood began painting the ground red, soaking the soil enough to where it looked as if a bucket of red dyed water had been splashed all over Naruto and the ground surrounding him.
The masked man then picked Naruto up by his collar, the boy no longer moving as his breathing was slowed and he walked forward a little and held the Hatake over a cliff where a river was roaring underneath.
"He might die from blood loss," Shisui commented, observing the amount of blood that was on the ground. "This is a lot more blood on the ground than is healthy."
"If the demon inside him wishes to live, then he will keep the boy alive. But for now," He saw Naruto's half-lidded eyes. "You will die, Naruto Hatake, goodbye." And with that, he dropped the boy's body as he fell towards the river, making a loud splash as he hit the water.
But unknowningly to the two Uchiha at the top of the hill, Naruto's head instantly smashed into a rock, knocking him completely unconscious.
"There, now he goes where the water flows. If he was meant to live, he will. If he was meant to die, he will. Either way, we win." Shisui looked down at the water, Naruto no longer in sight.
"I guess so. . ."
Flashback End
Naruto twirled his sword mid air and stabbed Shisui in the stomach, causing the man to grunt in pain, only to turn in to a groan of agony as Naruto twisted the blade a little, causing blood to flow out more easily. "Tell me, where's Itachi?" Sasuke's eyes widened at the mention of his deceased brother, being told that he died in an accident.
"What do you mean? He's dead!" Sasuke shouted. Naruto looked back, a glare in his eye as he looked at Sasuke.
"Shut up Sasuke, speak when spoken to." Sasuke was about to protest before Shisui began speaking.
"So you know that that was Itachi, how did you figure it out. We fooled everyone else in the world that he died by your Amaterasu, why not you?" Naruto twisted the blade a bit more, causing Shisui to let out a small cry.
"Back at the Naka River, I grabbed hold of Itachi with my Susanoo and I immediately recognized his chakra signature." He took the sword out of Shisui's stomach and planted his foot on the sword wound, causing Shisui to wince.
"Now tell me, what were you doing conspiring against the Uchiha Clan with Itachi so much that you had to kill me." He stopped for a second before increasing pressure on Shisui. "Let me rephrase that, why was I so important that you went out of your way to kill me?" Shisui smirked despite the pain going through his body.
"We needed someone. Someone who experienced tragedy and has been the target of manipulation of the Uchiha Clan, someone who knew what it was like to lose and feel pain! A savior for this world! That's what we needed! We were searching for a chosen one!" He began coughing, blood seeping out of his mouth. "And then we found you! Or rather, you found us! Right from the start, we knew something was up with you! You were different from the rest! You had something inside of you! Something that sparked so much vigor and spirit! And now that you're alive, my wishes have come true!" Naruto looked down at Shisui who was laughing madly with unhidden disgust in his eyes.
"You're trash, Shisui Uchiha, no, calling you trash would be an insult to the trash, you're nothing more than the shit stain of a fat man's underwear." This didn't deter any of Shisui's amusement.
"Finally! After all my hard work! I've finally found a successor. The true man who will bring this fucked up world to justice!" He looked at Naruto, happiness in his eyes. "You will bring peace to the world, that is your destiny as my chosen one!" Naruto didn't even smirk as he looked down at the dying Shisui.
"Peace to the world? Let me tell you something Shisui Uchiha," He applied more pressure on his foot, the bottom of his shoe being stained with Shisui's blood. "I couldn't give a damn if this world went up in blazes." Shisui's eyes widened at that as Naruto rose his sword in the air. "And it will trust me. After I'm through with it, after I reap my vengeance, the world shall burn and no the name of Naruto Hatake, and you have no one but yourself to blame, the moment my daughter's soul left this plane is the moment where I lost all empathy for this world."
"It's already too fucked up to fix, even if I truly wanted to fix it, I alone can't. The shinobi nations would have to disappear, families would not have to worry about poverty, men nor women could have the sexual desire to do what they need to do. The perfect world you imagined me creating is nothing short of horseshit that only exists in fairy tails."
"Is that what you're daughter would want?" Naruto's usual impassive face twisted to one of pure hatred and anger as he suddenly jumped on Shisui's stomach, his sword in hand as he began stabbing Shisui over and over and over and over and over again.
"Don't you dare tell me what she would want! Don't you dare even mention her name you piece of filth! You killed her! You killed her! You took her away from me so I don't want to hear her name ever come from anyone else's mouth! It's your fault she's dead! Your fault! Die die die die die die die die die die die die die die dddddiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeee!!!!" Naruto screamed as Shisui now looked like a mangled up piece of meat.
"You killed her. . ." Naruto whispered before standing up, flicking his blade to the side as the blood got off of his sword. He turned around and looked at the two nameless Uchiha and Sasuke.
"Naruto. . ." Sasuke whispered, guilt flooding his emotions, overtaking everything else in his system, his legs feeling weak. Naruto walked past Sasuke, not even saying a word before two grunts were heard and two thumps sounded right after. Sasuke turned around and saw the two dead bodies of the Uchiha that had captured the little girl.
"Kioku!" A female voice rang out and a teen with short black hair dressed in the ordinary Iwa suit appeared, landing softly next to Sasuke before quickly immobilizing him, with little to no protest coming from Sasuke who was still shellshocked from the events that had just occurred. Kurotsuchi's eyes widened as she saw the limp form of Ellie on the ground. "Ellie. . .?"
"She's dead," Naruto said plainly as if he didn't just have a miniature break down and killed one of the strongest Uchiha alive at the moment. He turned around and began walking towards the burning buildings, intent on killing any and all Leaf and Mist Ninja he came into contact with.
"That's all you have to say?!" She shouted, tears streaming down her eyes. "Your daughter just died and you have no problem with that."
"Shut it, lady," Sasuke growled. "You don't know who you're talking-" She hit Sasuke in the head, silencing him, glaring at Naruto for an answer. He stopped walking and turned his head, his eyes empty and unnerving her.
"Am I supposed to?" He said darkly, causing Kurotsuchi to stop talking and look at him with horror in her eyes.
"She was your daughter! Of course, you're supposed to!" She screamed at him. "What the fuck happened to you Kioku?" She suddenly found herself pinned a burned down building by her neck, Naruto hovering over her, her feet about a foot off the ground.
"Shut up. Don't pretend that you know a single goddamn thing about me. My name, is not Kioku." He said as he tightened his grip on her neck, causing her to gasp for air as she tried to struggle out of his grasp, but to no avail.
"W-Why?" She stammered out. "B-Betray u-us?" Naruto flung her to the ground, causing her to grunt in pain.
"Betray? Tell me, how can one betray something that one was not loyal to?" He glanced at Sasuke, his Sharingan studying the Uchiha Heir. "Sasuke, come with me. We have things to do." Sasuke slowly stood to the ground and cautiously walked towards Naruto, limping slightly.
"Why?" Kurotsuchi asked, giving Naruto a pleading look. "Why are you doing this?!" She said, her tone filled with hurt.
"Because my dream is over. I've woken up. Kioku, he never truly existed. So stop worrying about him." Kurotsuchi glared at him, grabbing fistfuls of dirt as she clenched her teeth, her eyes shifting to Ellie's dead body, her heat slowly cracking.
"Come on Sasuke, we're leaving this pathetic village." Sasuke nodded as the two teens began walking away. "I was planning on saving the village, but I've changed my mind. I've seen through the lies of Iwa, we're done here."
"You bastard!" Kurotsuchi screamed as she threw a kunai at Naruto's back. Naruto heard the whistle of the kunai but let it hit his back and didn't let out so much as a whimper.
"Do you feel better now? Did you achieve what you were aiming for with that kunai?" He asked her rhetorically. She looked at him with wide eyes, not saying a single word. He shrugged the kunai out of his back as it clattered to the ground. He continued walking and was followed by Sasuke, who spared her a glanced.
"Kioku. . ." She whispered before crawling towards Ellie's body, cradling her in her arms. "Please, don't leave."
And done. How was it? Good? Bad? Tell meeeeeee!
Anyways, yeah.
Til next time my lil demons!
