Let us begin shall we?
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
Toutaku had entered the school rooftop. He was called to meet with someone there but he did not know why. Only that he was to be rewarded after revealing information. He saw a figure in the shadows. He guess it was a tall man from the features he was showing. He also had a rather strong aura about him. He approached the man who had his hand up.
"Stay there. It would be best if you just don't see me." The figure said.
"Alright you. What is this all about?" Toutaku demanded. "Why did you get me all the way out here?"
"I need your help Toutaku. You know someone that I need to find and you know where he is?"
"First I need your name. I need to know who you are."
"For now. I am Sachi."
"Dude can you come up with something better."
"Just listen Toutaku. I need you to tell me the whereabouts of a bland boy about this tall." He raised a flat hand to show his targets height.
"Well the only blond kid I know is that asshole Naruto Uzumaki."
"He may be a knucklehead but he's not an asshole." Sachi remarked. Toutaku crossed his arms. "Yeah I know what school he goes to, Nanyo academy. Now that I divulged this information to you what are you gonna do for me in return?"
"As promised. Here." He handed a small suit case and slid it to Toutaku. He picked it up and wanted to find out his contacts true face.
"Seriously Sachi who are you? You don't look like your one of us." Just then he saw red eyes staring menacingly at him. Black tear drop marks encircled the pupil. This made Toutaku jump out of reflex. "My real name......is none of your concern...til we meet again Toutaku." The figure vanished from the shadows. Toutaku just stood there wondering about this power surge he just had a while ago.
"That guy...his aura was just like Naruto's....only.....evil.....pure evil.........like he was a spirit of vengeance." He smiled at his knowledge that there was someone as strong as Naruto. "He might prove useful."
Naruto, Ryofu, Sakura and Hinata had taken a cab and drove Naruto to Ryomou's house. Ryomou was waiting for him to come home and explain to her what had happened. She saw Ryofu and two other girls walk out as well as Naruto from the passenger side. Ryofu just stood there while Naruto and the two girls walked over. Naruto looked back to see Ryofu winking and making a phone out of her hands and mouthing 'call me'. She then walked away to go back to her home. Ryomou just ran up to him and hugged him. The cab just drove away.
"Naruto I was worried about you. I felt a sinister energy signature from here. I thought it may have something to do with you."
"I'm fine Ryomou." He had at least remembered to grant Ryomou's request to not call her sensei anymore. "I want you to meet the two people who came from my world Ryomou. This is Sakura......uhhhh....uhh." He rubbed his head and giggled. Sakura just sighed at him
"I am Sakura Haruno. This is my friend Hinata Hyuuga. We came from the leaf village."
"Nice to meet you. Come in. Hakufu and Ukitsu are inside waiting for you Naruto. Ukitsu wanted to come see you so you can teach her your Rasengan."
"Did she now? ehehehehe I guess I will have to show her then." Ryomou and the others walked in. Naruto was the last to come in only to be taken down tot he ground by Ukitsu and Hakufu.
"Master Naruto your okay. Yay Thank goodness I was worried. Now that your here teach me that rasenthingy."
"HEY! HE HAS TO SEE ME FIRST! I AM HIS GIRLFRIEND YOU KNOW!"
"He's my master, He promised to teach me." She got off of Naruto and brushed herself off. Hakufu got up as well and picked up Naruto and brushed himself off. "Alright alright you two go sit on the couch. I have to tell you something." They both nodded and sat in the couch. Ryomou and Sakura were standing behind the couch while Hakufu, Ukitsu and Hinata were sitting with there legs crossed.
"Okay guys..I want to introduce you to my friends from the leaf. Sakura Haruno and Hinata Hyuuga." Hakufu turned to Hinata and gave her hand to greet Hinata. She smiled " Nice to meet you Hinata."
"Nice to meet you." Hakufu immediately had a thought enter her mind. "I don't like her already. She looks like she likes Naruto. I will make sure that you don't get to spend time with my boyfriend you hussie."
Hinata's thoughts were much different. "Naruto sure knows a lot of girls. This girl says he's her boyfriend but Naruto doesn't recognize it. For some reason I can tell that her relationship is one sided. I hope she doesn't think I like Naruto...but I can't shake this feeling for him away....like I knew Naruto and wanted to be with him....oh I wish I could remember.
Ryomou and Ukitsu turned to Sakura and greeted her wholeheartedly. "Pleasure to meet you Sakura."
"So you know master too eh? Are you as strong as he is?"
"Well I don't know...I wish I could tell you that but I don't know my own strength." She spoke.
"Oh....Well I guess if you two are from Naruto's home you must be strong." Ryomou instantly had a thought. She turned to Sakura and patted her back to gain her attention.
"Tell me Sakura...do you and Hinata remember anything about your home?"
"Well.....No we don't."
"Just I suspected. They must have amnesia as well." Naruto perked at Ryomou for a moment. "Ryomou are you sure?"
"Yeah...they are just like you..You see Sakura Naruto hardly remembers his life as well."
"He forgot who he is too?" Sakura asked. "Well it's that he doesn't know who he is its more like he doesn't what he is dong here and why he;'s here or even how."
"I see....Naruto what do remember about the leaf village?" Hinata turned to Naruto who tilted his head. "Lesse...Well all I remember was a giant green gate....a shop and well.....faces.....3 faces....yours, Sakura's and Sasuke's."
"Sasuke...why does that name ring a bell?" Sakura held her own chin Sherlock style. Naruto nodded at her "Yeah it's so familiar right Sakura? Like We know this Sasuke guy...."
"If it's the man who I saw try to kill you then that must be him." Naruto grew silent at Sakura's last comment. He turned his head down is a slump. "Is he that guy with the sword drawn?"
"Naruto you remember too?" Hinata excitedly exclaimed. She was perked at the idea of her and Naruto sharing the same vision. Naruto just nodded at Hinata. "Yeah....but why would he want to kill me? I don't get it."
"It appears to me that this Sasuke guy is the key to unlocking your past...The pasts of all three of you." Hakufu and Ukitsu just looked on in confusion but understanding the position Naruto and his friends were in. Ryomou was sure about her deduction.
"Ryomou we have to see if this Sasuke is here, For all we know he could have came here through the same cataclysm we did."
"And if he didn't."
"Then we at least have our other option. Itachi Uchiha." He put his fist on his palm.
"Itachi...Hm.....you may be on to something Naruto." Ryomou crossed her arms. Her bust however overlapped her arms and made it obvious. Naruto caught this and looked away.
"So....uhh...what's the plan Sakura?"
"We go with Ryofu's suggestion and find Itachi. I mean at least we know he is here." Sakura was sounding so sure of herself.
"Alright....But the fact that Ryofu suggested this kinda of worries me."
"Relax Ryomou she hasn't stirred me wrong.......yet."
"But how can you be sure?"
"I don't know....I just do I guess."
"Well okay then.....I won't like it but we have to trust her for now.....but lets leave that aside. We have to find out about some decent living arrangements for you two."
"It's okay Ryomou me and Hinata have a place picked out and we already have our stuff over there."
"You mean that apartment we came from Sakura?" Naruto asked.
"yeah...Me and Hinata have our ninja gear and our food there we are good."
"Th-th-th-th-thank you for your kindness Naruto." She had her eyes fixated on Naruto who was just looking at Ryomou. She had a question mark pop up on top of her head. She just shrugged and thought nothing of it.
"If you have a place then I don't have to worry. Very well then. I am gonna go make dinner for us. its late and I am sure as all hell you guys are hungry." Hakufu and Naruto perked at the prospect of food.
"FOOOD!!" They shouted. Only Hakufu turned and blushed at Naruto who was already drooling with eagerness. Hinata got up from the couch and walked over to Ryomou. "I can help you if you want Ryomou. It's the least I can do for you and Naruto."
"Alright Hinata I would greatly appreciate it." They went to the kitchen and started preparing dinner. Sakura and Ukitsu went to the table and started talking about Naruto's Rasengan. That conversation went bad seeing as though Sakura didn't even know what a Rasengan was. Ukitsu just grew teary eyed. All the while as Naruto went to join in and obliviously save Sakura Hakufu pulled him to the side and they fled to a dark corner of the living room. She took Naruto by the hand and looked at him serenely.
"Naruto I don't trust Hinata.. She is WAY into you. I don't want you to hang around her."
"What are talking about Hakufu? She doesn't even know who she is! What makes you think she even has a crush on me?"
"I can tell when a girls has the hots for a guy. But that's beside the point Naruto. I just don't like you hanging around her even if she is from the place as you. Remember Naruto your still mine."
"You sound jealous of what me and Hinata going way back....I think...at least I hope so seeing as though they are from the leaf village."
"I AM NOT.....I just don't want to lose you honey....Please....just watch yourself around her okay?.....do it for me."
"Fine fine..I don't see why you are getting worked up for nothing...I mean I still don't get you Hakufu....I am going to the table." He walked away. He had a thought to himself as he ventured to a now helpless Sakura and a curious Ukitsu. "Why does she ramble on about me being hers?....I don't get her......women are so fickle I swear.....one minute they say they like you...then they do a 360 on ya and then before you know it they want your kids......God I feel like I am in a harem anime." He had a feeling that somewhere someone with a perverted mind is berating himself or herself out of jealousy. He shrugged at the notion and just sat at the table. Hakufu ran over and took her place next to Naruto and got into the conversation that Sakura wished she never had. Ukitsu was relentless at her barrage of questions that she wanted answered. Naruto stepped in whenever he could earning him a worshiping bow from Ukitsu. Hinata and Ryomou and dinner ready for consumption. It was a miso soup and tea to go with it. Hinata delivered Naruto first which made Hakufu glare at her. This went unnoticed by Hinata. They all had fun at the table. When dinner was done Hinata and Sakura thanked Ryomou for her hospitality. they said their goodbyes and went back to the hotel room they were occupying. Hakufu and Ukitsu left as well. But not without Hakufu planting a kiss on Naruto's cheek and Ukitsu bowing servant-like to Naruto. He just blushed and waved them as they walked away back to their respective homes.
Naruto was getting tired and sleepy. Ryomou was tired as well. She yawned and went to her room.
"Good night Naruto...be ready to leave first thing in the mourning."
"Okay sen-....uhh Okay Ryomou."
"It's okay Naruto if you still have a need to say it go for it. But I am not your teacher okay..You graduated in my eyes."
"THANKS SENSEI!"
"Yeah yeah....Just go to sleep." She went inside and plopped to her bed instantly falling asleep.
"Good Night Ryomou-sensei." He too plopped in a similar fashion and was knocked out. About a few minutes later his phone goes off. He saw that someone sent him a message. He opened it and saw the message was a written text message. He also noticed that it was from Ryofu.
"......you gotta be kidding.......Ryofu.....bah." He saw that she had sent him a picture of him unconscious and her lips pressed against his. She gave a peace sign as if to signify her victory. The message read
"Hey there....just wanted you know that I want to talk to you after you get out of Nanyo..I want us to visit Chinkyuu.....if that's not a problem."
He responded by saying he will meet her at Nanyo when he got out. She sent her reply with had a picture on that as well. Only this time it was her in a rather erotic pose.
".....Ryofu.............seriously........did you have to do that.....I swear she is perverted beyond recognition...Showing me her in a posed like that. I mean she had her panties out there.......I often question her actions....I mean she says she likes me but I am beginning it's more physical then a pure hearted thing." He laughed to himself and stared at the night sky. He caught the glimpse of his constellation he named the midnight lady.
"Hey midnight....nice to see you again. Well I have to go to sleep. good night and shine bright Midnight lady." he put his head on the pillow and fell back to sleep. The rest of the night was pleasant for our hero as he slept soundly into the night.
Next mourning he opened his eyes to see Ryomou right at foot of his bed cracking her fingers. She had her fist cocked back.
"Wake up Naruto........We are gonna late."
"Uhhh....oh man.......what 'BAM' OWW what the hell?" He rubbed his head as a red Ryomou just stood there in an angry stupor. She was secretly satisfied with herself. "That'll teach to watch porn on your cellphone pervert."
"Get up boy...I refuse to be late because of you." She took him out of his bed and helped him get dressed. She slapped on his ninja gear and dragged him outside. All the while Naruto was beside himself. He had no idea what just happened to make her mad in the mourning. He just shrugged it off and they walked to the school. Naruto saw that there were people outside the school. They had paper in there hands. they looked like they were waiting for someone. Ryomou gasped and hid Naruto at a corner.
"Naruto...stay here. I've got bad feeling about this."
"Okay sensei whatever you say." He just hid there as Ryomou approached the large crowd standing at the entrance of the school. She pulled a young man and decided to investigate what was going on.
"Hey you. What the hell is all this."
"Didn't you hear.. Naruto Uzumaki is here today we all wanted to get his autograph." One girl turned to Ryomou and spoke perkily "I wanted to ask him out on a date."
"I can't wait til he shows up." one boy said.
"Yeah me too." The same girl who was obsessed with Naruto spoke out again. She backed away very slowly and went to Naruto.
"Naruto.....that crowd out there is waiting for you. They are gonna kill you by way of fandom."
"WHAT!"
"Remember the tournament Naruto when you beat Toutaku?"
"Yeah?"
"Well it seems that you made some fans from that. Those fans are out there...unless you have a disguise you can't show yourself or they will stomp you into satisfying them with autographs and dates."
"Damn it.....Oh wait....I have an idea....Check this out." He made a flurry of hands signed. "Transform." He went poof and Ryomou gasped at what form he now took.
When Ryomou walked out of the corner a tall man with a short black hair followed her in the school. One girl sniffed the air and turned to Ryomou and the man next to her
"Funny......he smelled like Naruto...oh well back to waiting." She looked again and saw something that caught her eye. She saw some marks that resembled whiskers. She the looked hard and saw the hair was oddly familiar to her. It hit her that it was Naruto under a disguise. She yelled setting off the fan alarm.
"AAAAAHHHHHH THERE HE IS!" The man and Ryomou froze in fear and Naruto's disguise fell. He was now in full view of the rabid fangirls. He looked on in terror as they ran at him and Ryomou with blazing speed.
"NARUTO RUN!" Ryomou took Naruto by the arm and as fast as her legs can carry her. They ran straight into Ryomou's classroom and found it to be empty.
"You'll be safe here Naruto. Whoa that was too close for comfort."
"Yeah Ryomou-sensei. Thank for that I owe you my life."
"Next time I think you should just stay home. The school is just too dangerous."
"Yeah." He heard the bell ring and he freaked out for a moment. Ryomou planted her hands on his shoulders in an effort to calm him down
"It's just the school bell...Okay Naruto I think you need to do that transformation technique again and get yourself to the roof."
"Got it...This time I think I will try another face." He made a flurry of hand signs and transformed himself into a girl. Ryomou stared wide eyed.
"Naruto....what......the.....fuck?"
"Oh That's right...I can transform into anything I want. It's a simple jutsu really." His male voice now turning to a feminine tone.
"But to make yourself a girl?.....Don't you worry that boys will grope you I mean your as busty as I am."
"I'll be fine." She saw that the students had found their way in. Each one of them looking at Naruto. She just waved at them (A/n: When he changes his sexy jutsu I will refer to him as a girl.)
"See you after school Na....Na...."
"Nariko silly." She giggled. Ryomou just laughed at the alter ego for Naruto's girl side. "I'll come for you after school is out."
"Okay Ryomou see ya." And Nariko left the class room and ran as fast as she could to the roof. When he got there Naruto dropped the disguise and was now himself.
"Finally I can relax and enjoy a quiet day." He leaned and slid down a wall and just sat there. He had the roof all to himself. But he soon found himself sensing a presence around the corner. He got up and looked around to find no one behind the wall. He sighed thanking on high that no fan girls were going to surprise him. He then froze not wanting to see what's behind him. He then felt a pair of arms going around him and looked back to see Ryofu holding his body close to her. He was shocked at the fact that it was Ryofu who was behind him and just hugging him so sincerely.
"Ryofu.....what are you doing here?"
"C'mon..We have to go."
"Where?"
"We have to go see her remember...I sent you a message."
"Oh yeah...right.....yeah I guess I can go visit her over there...it's the least I can do."
"Thank you Naruto.....for doing this for me."
"Don't mention it...Seriously I beg you not to."
"hahahaha......Okay honey.....Now let's get going. She is waiting for us." She took Naruto by the hand and she went down from the roof and on their way out of Nanyo. She saw his face pale face. He was very much frightened at every corner they passed.
"What are you so afraid of Naruto?"
"Fangirls....they are out to get me."
"Oh is that all...I have those all the time.....well girls and boys really."
"......................I shouldn't have mention that."
"I am kidding Naruto....Look we haven't seen any so don't make a spectacle of yourself and we can get out of here without a hitch." She just lead him on til he got out of the school and he drew a sigh of relief. He also saw a wierd machine outside the school gates. It sat on two large circles and looked like it was something mobile.
"Uhhh what is that Ryofu."
"Our ride.....hop on...you have to grab hold of me tight Naruto...I go fast."
"...is that what this thing is called? A ride?"
"It's a motorcycle Naruto...Don't tell me this would be your first time riding one."
"It was my first time in that other thing you call a car."
"Right....I should have known. That means the I will be your first Naruto." Naruto grew confused at her innuendo. He shrugged and saw Ryofu get on the bike. She patted the seat behind her and motioned him over to sit behind her. "Hop on. We don't have a long way but it's a fair distance. I'll get you back before mommy even realizes your gone."
"Okay...But I don't think your supposed to go fast I mean won't you fall?"
"Let be sweat the small stuff babe. Just get on." He went over and sat behind Ryofu and held on to her waist. She reved the engine twice before gunning it away from the school. About thirty minutes later they made it to a cemetery and parked in on a street near the graveyard. Naruto let go allowing Ryofu to dismount and helping Naruto off the bike. She out her arms in his and walked over to the grave marked: "Chinkyuu Koudai: Friend, lover and brave soul R.I.P"
"There she is Naruto. She wanted me to bring you here."
"I am sorry about Chinkyuu....I should have reacted when I had the chance..I was so afraid that they would do something bad.....I feel like that day was all my fault."
"It's not."
"If I hadn't won the tournament and fought her she would still be alive. Tell me if that's not reason enough for me to not be at fault here." He took ou a kunai knife and took off his black headband. He tied the headband to the knife and stuck it on the ground. Ryofu was not sure if this was a ritual where he was from.
"You know I buried a woman and did the same thing. I don't know why but I just felt like this would honor her somehow."
"Naruto.......Chinkyuu would have felt the same way..we were friends for years...i would always protect her when she would be bullied by boys. She had a slight fear of men thus leading her into a life of love between her and I. It was a great kinship we had.....If she were still here she would have maybe got to like you as much as I do..No....maybe to love you.....But hearing her say those things....you know last thing she said to me was that she wished she would have met you under different circumstances. She may have gotten to know you better."
"Is that what she said....talk about irony......I am really sorry this had to happen........I promise that I will make sure none of my friends die in front of me....That's a promise of a lifetime."
"Naruto.....it's not really not your fault....there was nothing you could have done.......believe me..We toushi are prepared to die fulfilling our fates....this was preordained long ago Naruto....we know we will have to face this destiny head on....that is the way to the toushi."
"You know Ryomou sensei told me the same thing....Ironically it was when I buried the girl....she said the you guys have your fates laid out for you and were ready to face your destiny head on without fail."
"She is right.....we are ready to die for whatever cause we were meant to be here for....it's the whole reason why we toushi fight."
"Heh.....sounds nostalgic....I remember that being said to me by someone....We ninja from what I remember are nothing but tools that are meant to be used as others see fit. We were just out to kill and die for the sake of killing...I also remember say once that I would change all that....to change the way of the ninja forever......I guess it's like you guys....only we don't have our fates planned out."
"I see.......Naruto I hope you do change that one day.....To be the best and bring peace to your world.....I know you can do it.......I have faith in you....and Chinkyuu did as well....it's what I love about you."
"yeah..........I just hope your right." She took his hand and held it tight and placing her other hand to turn his head making him look at her. She stared deeply into his eyes with such sincere affection as one lover would look at another. "Naruto.......you will have your dreams come true. I will make sure of that. Even if I have to give my life for you. I will.......cause that is what I fight for....that is why I fight......I know that from the bottom of my heart. Naruto I want you to know no matter what happens..I will stick to ya and never turn away." Naruto gasped at what Ryofu had to say. He always was cold and mean to her even thought she bled her heart out for him. A feeling of certainty overtook and he smiled. She smiled back and lead Naruto away from the grave site. Before she mounted she held Naruto by the cheek and kissed him on the lips. He only let the feeling get to him. He was used to her kissing him now and although he did not say it. Ryofu was kind of growing on her.
"Naruto....Let's get you back....I think mommy might be mad if your not in your room."
"Okay.....oh and Ryofu."
"Yes?"
"Why do you go so far out of your way for me...I mean am I that worth it to you." She reassured him again with a peck to the cheek "Your more worth it to me than you realize....I know you might not say it....But I will....Naruto I am in love with you....I am willing to die for you and there's not a thing you can do about it." He just sighed and hoped back on the bike.
"Ryofu........thanks."
"Anytime Naruto...anytime." He held on to her waist and they sped back to the school
Elsewhere
Toutaku had his right hand girl right next to her. She was rubbing his chest rather sensually as he was in a throne like chair. He seemed rather calm and collected about his position, This new blonde guy training under this sensei were bothersome."
"Kaku......where is he?" He was running out of patience.
"I sent him a text message....He should be here by now." Toutaku was looking at her and leaned in to kiss her. She took it in and let him explore her mouth. He broke contact and looked at her rather evilly "So what is that he has that makes him so special?" He asked
"He came to me looking for this Naruto guy and has some information about his special power."
"Oh really...what's his name?" He pondered. Just the a man with black hair and a trench coat that was black with red clouds walked in and saw Toutaku and Kaku looking at him.
"You must be the one called Toutaku am I right."
"Yeah and?"
"I have something of interest that you might want to know about Naruto Uzumaki."
"Interesting...buy first tell me who you are so I can recognize you as a contact."
"My name...." as his eyes shifted from the black to a red cornea with a black pupil and three tear drops surrounding the pupil. His eyes pierced Kaku like a thousand daggers.
"Is Itachi.....Itachi Uchiha....that's all you need to know Toutaku......"
_______________________________________________________________________________________________

_______________________________________________________________________________________________
Toutaku had entered the school rooftop. He was called to meet with someone there but he did not know why. Only that he was to be rewarded after revealing information. He saw a figure in the shadows. He guess it was a tall man from the features he was showing. He also had a rather strong aura about him. He approached the man who had his hand up.
"Stay there. It would be best if you just don't see me." The figure said.
"Alright you. What is this all about?" Toutaku demanded. "Why did you get me all the way out here?"
"I need your help Toutaku. You know someone that I need to find and you know where he is?"
"First I need your name. I need to know who you are."
"For now. I am Sachi."
"Dude can you come up with something better."
"Just listen Toutaku. I need you to tell me the whereabouts of a bland boy about this tall." He raised a flat hand to show his targets height.
"Well the only blond kid I know is that asshole Naruto Uzumaki."
"He may be a knucklehead but he's not an asshole." Sachi remarked. Toutaku crossed his arms. "Yeah I know what school he goes to, Nanyo academy. Now that I divulged this information to you what are you gonna do for me in return?"
"As promised. Here." He handed a small suit case and slid it to Toutaku. He picked it up and wanted to find out his contacts true face.
"Seriously Sachi who are you? You don't look like your one of us." Just then he saw red eyes staring menacingly at him. Black tear drop marks encircled the pupil. This made Toutaku jump out of reflex. "My real name......is none of your concern...til we meet again Toutaku." The figure vanished from the shadows. Toutaku just stood there wondering about this power surge he just had a while ago.
"That guy...his aura was just like Naruto's....only.....evil.....pure evil.........like he was a spirit of vengeance." He smiled at his knowledge that there was someone as strong as Naruto. "He might prove useful."
Naruto, Ryofu, Sakura and Hinata had taken a cab and drove Naruto to Ryomou's house. Ryomou was waiting for him to come home and explain to her what had happened. She saw Ryofu and two other girls walk out as well as Naruto from the passenger side. Ryofu just stood there while Naruto and the two girls walked over. Naruto looked back to see Ryofu winking and making a phone out of her hands and mouthing 'call me'. She then walked away to go back to her home. Ryomou just ran up to him and hugged him. The cab just drove away.
"Naruto I was worried about you. I felt a sinister energy signature from here. I thought it may have something to do with you."
"I'm fine Ryomou." He had at least remembered to grant Ryomou's request to not call her sensei anymore. "I want you to meet the two people who came from my world Ryomou. This is Sakura......uhhhh....uhh." He rubbed his head and giggled. Sakura just sighed at him
"I am Sakura Haruno. This is my friend Hinata Hyuuga. We came from the leaf village."
"Nice to meet you. Come in. Hakufu and Ukitsu are inside waiting for you Naruto. Ukitsu wanted to come see you so you can teach her your Rasengan."
"Did she now? ehehehehe I guess I will have to show her then." Ryomou and the others walked in. Naruto was the last to come in only to be taken down tot he ground by Ukitsu and Hakufu.
"Master Naruto your okay. Yay Thank goodness I was worried. Now that your here teach me that rasenthingy."
"HEY! HE HAS TO SEE ME FIRST! I AM HIS GIRLFRIEND YOU KNOW!"
"He's my master, He promised to teach me." She got off of Naruto and brushed herself off. Hakufu got up as well and picked up Naruto and brushed himself off. "Alright alright you two go sit on the couch. I have to tell you something." They both nodded and sat in the couch. Ryomou and Sakura were standing behind the couch while Hakufu, Ukitsu and Hinata were sitting with there legs crossed.
"Okay guys..I want to introduce you to my friends from the leaf. Sakura Haruno and Hinata Hyuuga." Hakufu turned to Hinata and gave her hand to greet Hinata. She smiled " Nice to meet you Hinata."
"Nice to meet you." Hakufu immediately had a thought enter her mind. "I don't like her already. She looks like she likes Naruto. I will make sure that you don't get to spend time with my boyfriend you hussie."
Hinata's thoughts were much different. "Naruto sure knows a lot of girls. This girl says he's her boyfriend but Naruto doesn't recognize it. For some reason I can tell that her relationship is one sided. I hope she doesn't think I like Naruto...but I can't shake this feeling for him away....like I knew Naruto and wanted to be with him....oh I wish I could remember.
Ryomou and Ukitsu turned to Sakura and greeted her wholeheartedly. "Pleasure to meet you Sakura."
"So you know master too eh? Are you as strong as he is?"
"Well I don't know...I wish I could tell you that but I don't know my own strength." She spoke.
"Oh....Well I guess if you two are from Naruto's home you must be strong." Ryomou instantly had a thought. She turned to Sakura and patted her back to gain her attention.
"Tell me Sakura...do you and Hinata remember anything about your home?"
"Well.....No we don't."
"Just I suspected. They must have amnesia as well." Naruto perked at Ryomou for a moment. "Ryomou are you sure?"
"Yeah...they are just like you..You see Sakura Naruto hardly remembers his life as well."
"He forgot who he is too?" Sakura asked. "Well it's that he doesn't know who he is its more like he doesn't what he is dong here and why he;'s here or even how."
"I see....Naruto what do remember about the leaf village?" Hinata turned to Naruto who tilted his head. "Lesse...Well all I remember was a giant green gate....a shop and well.....faces.....3 faces....yours, Sakura's and Sasuke's."
"Sasuke...why does that name ring a bell?" Sakura held her own chin Sherlock style. Naruto nodded at her "Yeah it's so familiar right Sakura? Like We know this Sasuke guy...."
"If it's the man who I saw try to kill you then that must be him." Naruto grew silent at Sakura's last comment. He turned his head down is a slump. "Is he that guy with the sword drawn?"
"Naruto you remember too?" Hinata excitedly exclaimed. She was perked at the idea of her and Naruto sharing the same vision. Naruto just nodded at Hinata. "Yeah....but why would he want to kill me? I don't get it."
"It appears to me that this Sasuke guy is the key to unlocking your past...The pasts of all three of you." Hakufu and Ukitsu just looked on in confusion but understanding the position Naruto and his friends were in. Ryomou was sure about her deduction.
"Ryomou we have to see if this Sasuke is here, For all we know he could have came here through the same cataclysm we did."
"And if he didn't."
"Then we at least have our other option. Itachi Uchiha." He put his fist on his palm.
"Itachi...Hm.....you may be on to something Naruto." Ryomou crossed her arms. Her bust however overlapped her arms and made it obvious. Naruto caught this and looked away.
"So....uhh...what's the plan Sakura?"
"We go with Ryofu's suggestion and find Itachi. I mean at least we know he is here." Sakura was sounding so sure of herself.
"Alright....But the fact that Ryofu suggested this kinda of worries me."
"Relax Ryomou she hasn't stirred me wrong.......yet."
"But how can you be sure?"
"I don't know....I just do I guess."
"Well okay then.....I won't like it but we have to trust her for now.....but lets leave that aside. We have to find out about some decent living arrangements for you two."
"It's okay Ryomou me and Hinata have a place picked out and we already have our stuff over there."
"You mean that apartment we came from Sakura?" Naruto asked.
"yeah...Me and Hinata have our ninja gear and our food there we are good."
"Th-th-th-th-thank you for your kindness Naruto." She had her eyes fixated on Naruto who was just looking at Ryomou. She had a question mark pop up on top of her head. She just shrugged and thought nothing of it.
"If you have a place then I don't have to worry. Very well then. I am gonna go make dinner for us. its late and I am sure as all hell you guys are hungry." Hakufu and Naruto perked at the prospect of food.
"FOOOD!!" They shouted. Only Hakufu turned and blushed at Naruto who was already drooling with eagerness. Hinata got up from the couch and walked over to Ryomou. "I can help you if you want Ryomou. It's the least I can do for you and Naruto."
"Alright Hinata I would greatly appreciate it." They went to the kitchen and started preparing dinner. Sakura and Ukitsu went to the table and started talking about Naruto's Rasengan. That conversation went bad seeing as though Sakura didn't even know what a Rasengan was. Ukitsu just grew teary eyed. All the while as Naruto went to join in and obliviously save Sakura Hakufu pulled him to the side and they fled to a dark corner of the living room. She took Naruto by the hand and looked at him serenely.
"Naruto I don't trust Hinata.. She is WAY into you. I don't want you to hang around her."
"What are talking about Hakufu? She doesn't even know who she is! What makes you think she even has a crush on me?"
"I can tell when a girls has the hots for a guy. But that's beside the point Naruto. I just don't like you hanging around her even if she is from the place as you. Remember Naruto your still mine."
"You sound jealous of what me and Hinata going way back....I think...at least I hope so seeing as though they are from the leaf village."
"I AM NOT.....I just don't want to lose you honey....Please....just watch yourself around her okay?.....do it for me."
"Fine fine..I don't see why you are getting worked up for nothing...I mean I still don't get you Hakufu....I am going to the table." He walked away. He had a thought to himself as he ventured to a now helpless Sakura and a curious Ukitsu. "Why does she ramble on about me being hers?....I don't get her......women are so fickle I swear.....one minute they say they like you...then they do a 360 on ya and then before you know it they want your kids......God I feel like I am in a harem anime." He had a feeling that somewhere someone with a perverted mind is berating himself or herself out of jealousy. He shrugged at the notion and just sat at the table. Hakufu ran over and took her place next to Naruto and got into the conversation that Sakura wished she never had. Ukitsu was relentless at her barrage of questions that she wanted answered. Naruto stepped in whenever he could earning him a worshiping bow from Ukitsu. Hinata and Ryomou and dinner ready for consumption. It was a miso soup and tea to go with it. Hinata delivered Naruto first which made Hakufu glare at her. This went unnoticed by Hinata. They all had fun at the table. When dinner was done Hinata and Sakura thanked Ryomou for her hospitality. they said their goodbyes and went back to the hotel room they were occupying. Hakufu and Ukitsu left as well. But not without Hakufu planting a kiss on Naruto's cheek and Ukitsu bowing servant-like to Naruto. He just blushed and waved them as they walked away back to their respective homes.
Naruto was getting tired and sleepy. Ryomou was tired as well. She yawned and went to her room.
"Good night Naruto...be ready to leave first thing in the mourning."
"Okay sen-....uhh Okay Ryomou."
"It's okay Naruto if you still have a need to say it go for it. But I am not your teacher okay..You graduated in my eyes."
"THANKS SENSEI!"
"Yeah yeah....Just go to sleep." She went inside and plopped to her bed instantly falling asleep.
"Good Night Ryomou-sensei." He too plopped in a similar fashion and was knocked out. About a few minutes later his phone goes off. He saw that someone sent him a message. He opened it and saw the message was a written text message. He also noticed that it was from Ryofu.
"......you gotta be kidding.......Ryofu.....bah." He saw that she had sent him a picture of him unconscious and her lips pressed against his. She gave a peace sign as if to signify her victory. The message read
"Hey there....just wanted you know that I want to talk to you after you get out of Nanyo..I want us to visit Chinkyuu.....if that's not a problem."
He responded by saying he will meet her at Nanyo when he got out. She sent her reply with had a picture on that as well. Only this time it was her in a rather erotic pose.
".....Ryofu.............seriously........did you have to do that.....I swear she is perverted beyond recognition...Showing me her in a posed like that. I mean she had her panties out there.......I often question her actions....I mean she says she likes me but I am beginning it's more physical then a pure hearted thing." He laughed to himself and stared at the night sky. He caught the glimpse of his constellation he named the midnight lady.
"Hey midnight....nice to see you again. Well I have to go to sleep. good night and shine bright Midnight lady." he put his head on the pillow and fell back to sleep. The rest of the night was pleasant for our hero as he slept soundly into the night.
Next mourning he opened his eyes to see Ryomou right at foot of his bed cracking her fingers. She had her fist cocked back.
"Wake up Naruto........We are gonna late."
"Uhhh....oh man.......what 'BAM' OWW what the hell?" He rubbed his head as a red Ryomou just stood there in an angry stupor. She was secretly satisfied with herself. "That'll teach to watch porn on your cellphone pervert."
"Get up boy...I refuse to be late because of you." She took him out of his bed and helped him get dressed. She slapped on his ninja gear and dragged him outside. All the while Naruto was beside himself. He had no idea what just happened to make her mad in the mourning. He just shrugged it off and they walked to the school. Naruto saw that there were people outside the school. They had paper in there hands. they looked like they were waiting for someone. Ryomou gasped and hid Naruto at a corner.
"Naruto...stay here. I've got bad feeling about this."
"Okay sensei whatever you say." He just hid there as Ryomou approached the large crowd standing at the entrance of the school. She pulled a young man and decided to investigate what was going on.
"Hey you. What the hell is all this."
"Didn't you hear.. Naruto Uzumaki is here today we all wanted to get his autograph." One girl turned to Ryomou and spoke perkily "I wanted to ask him out on a date."
"I can't wait til he shows up." one boy said.
"Yeah me too." The same girl who was obsessed with Naruto spoke out again. She backed away very slowly and went to Naruto.
"Naruto.....that crowd out there is waiting for you. They are gonna kill you by way of fandom."
"WHAT!"
"Remember the tournament Naruto when you beat Toutaku?"
"Yeah?"
"Well it seems that you made some fans from that. Those fans are out there...unless you have a disguise you can't show yourself or they will stomp you into satisfying them with autographs and dates."
"Damn it.....Oh wait....I have an idea....Check this out." He made a flurry of hands signed. "Transform." He went poof and Ryomou gasped at what form he now took.
When Ryomou walked out of the corner a tall man with a short black hair followed her in the school. One girl sniffed the air and turned to Ryomou and the man next to her
"Funny......he smelled like Naruto...oh well back to waiting." She looked again and saw something that caught her eye. She saw some marks that resembled whiskers. She the looked hard and saw the hair was oddly familiar to her. It hit her that it was Naruto under a disguise. She yelled setting off the fan alarm.
"AAAAAHHHHHH THERE HE IS!" The man and Ryomou froze in fear and Naruto's disguise fell. He was now in full view of the rabid fangirls. He looked on in terror as they ran at him and Ryomou with blazing speed.
"NARUTO RUN!" Ryomou took Naruto by the arm and as fast as her legs can carry her. They ran straight into Ryomou's classroom and found it to be empty.
"You'll be safe here Naruto. Whoa that was too close for comfort."
"Yeah Ryomou-sensei. Thank for that I owe you my life."
"Next time I think you should just stay home. The school is just too dangerous."
"Yeah." He heard the bell ring and he freaked out for a moment. Ryomou planted her hands on his shoulders in an effort to calm him down
"It's just the school bell...Okay Naruto I think you need to do that transformation technique again and get yourself to the roof."
"Got it...This time I think I will try another face." He made a flurry of hand signs and transformed himself into a girl. Ryomou stared wide eyed.
"Naruto....what......the.....fuck?"
"Oh That's right...I can transform into anything I want. It's a simple jutsu really." His male voice now turning to a feminine tone.
"But to make yourself a girl?.....Don't you worry that boys will grope you I mean your as busty as I am."
"I'll be fine." She saw that the students had found their way in. Each one of them looking at Naruto. She just waved at them (A/n: When he changes his sexy jutsu I will refer to him as a girl.)
"See you after school Na....Na...."
"Nariko silly." She giggled. Ryomou just laughed at the alter ego for Naruto's girl side. "I'll come for you after school is out."
"Okay Ryomou see ya." And Nariko left the class room and ran as fast as she could to the roof. When he got there Naruto dropped the disguise and was now himself.
"Finally I can relax and enjoy a quiet day." He leaned and slid down a wall and just sat there. He had the roof all to himself. But he soon found himself sensing a presence around the corner. He got up and looked around to find no one behind the wall. He sighed thanking on high that no fan girls were going to surprise him. He then froze not wanting to see what's behind him. He then felt a pair of arms going around him and looked back to see Ryofu holding his body close to her. He was shocked at the fact that it was Ryofu who was behind him and just hugging him so sincerely.
"Ryofu.....what are you doing here?"
"C'mon..We have to go."
"Where?"
"We have to go see her remember...I sent you a message."
"Oh yeah...right.....yeah I guess I can go visit her over there...it's the least I can do."
"Thank you Naruto.....for doing this for me."
"Don't mention it...Seriously I beg you not to."
"hahahaha......Okay honey.....Now let's get going. She is waiting for us." She took Naruto by the hand and she went down from the roof and on their way out of Nanyo. She saw his face pale face. He was very much frightened at every corner they passed.
"What are you so afraid of Naruto?"
"Fangirls....they are out to get me."
"Oh is that all...I have those all the time.....well girls and boys really."
"......................I shouldn't have mention that."
"I am kidding Naruto....Look we haven't seen any so don't make a spectacle of yourself and we can get out of here without a hitch." She just lead him on til he got out of the school and he drew a sigh of relief. He also saw a wierd machine outside the school gates. It sat on two large circles and looked like it was something mobile.
"Uhhh what is that Ryofu."
"Our ride.....hop on...you have to grab hold of me tight Naruto...I go fast."
"...is that what this thing is called? A ride?"
"It's a motorcycle Naruto...Don't tell me this would be your first time riding one."
"It was my first time in that other thing you call a car."
"Right....I should have known. That means the I will be your first Naruto." Naruto grew confused at her innuendo. He shrugged and saw Ryofu get on the bike. She patted the seat behind her and motioned him over to sit behind her. "Hop on. We don't have a long way but it's a fair distance. I'll get you back before mommy even realizes your gone."
"Okay...But I don't think your supposed to go fast I mean won't you fall?"
"Let be sweat the small stuff babe. Just get on." He went over and sat behind Ryofu and held on to her waist. She reved the engine twice before gunning it away from the school. About thirty minutes later they made it to a cemetery and parked in on a street near the graveyard. Naruto let go allowing Ryofu to dismount and helping Naruto off the bike. She out her arms in his and walked over to the grave marked: "Chinkyuu Koudai: Friend, lover and brave soul R.I.P"
"There she is Naruto. She wanted me to bring you here."
"I am sorry about Chinkyuu....I should have reacted when I had the chance..I was so afraid that they would do something bad.....I feel like that day was all my fault."
"It's not."
"If I hadn't won the tournament and fought her she would still be alive. Tell me if that's not reason enough for me to not be at fault here." He took ou a kunai knife and took off his black headband. He tied the headband to the knife and stuck it on the ground. Ryofu was not sure if this was a ritual where he was from.
"You know I buried a woman and did the same thing. I don't know why but I just felt like this would honor her somehow."
"Naruto.......Chinkyuu would have felt the same way..we were friends for years...i would always protect her when she would be bullied by boys. She had a slight fear of men thus leading her into a life of love between her and I. It was a great kinship we had.....If she were still here she would have maybe got to like you as much as I do..No....maybe to love you.....But hearing her say those things....you know last thing she said to me was that she wished she would have met you under different circumstances. She may have gotten to know you better."
"Is that what she said....talk about irony......I am really sorry this had to happen........I promise that I will make sure none of my friends die in front of me....That's a promise of a lifetime."
"Naruto.....it's not really not your fault....there was nothing you could have done.......believe me..We toushi are prepared to die fulfilling our fates....this was preordained long ago Naruto....we know we will have to face this destiny head on....that is the way to the toushi."
"You know Ryomou sensei told me the same thing....Ironically it was when I buried the girl....she said the you guys have your fates laid out for you and were ready to face your destiny head on without fail."
"She is right.....we are ready to die for whatever cause we were meant to be here for....it's the whole reason why we toushi fight."
"Heh.....sounds nostalgic....I remember that being said to me by someone....We ninja from what I remember are nothing but tools that are meant to be used as others see fit. We were just out to kill and die for the sake of killing...I also remember say once that I would change all that....to change the way of the ninja forever......I guess it's like you guys....only we don't have our fates planned out."
"I see.......Naruto I hope you do change that one day.....To be the best and bring peace to your world.....I know you can do it.......I have faith in you....and Chinkyuu did as well....it's what I love about you."
"yeah..........I just hope your right." She took his hand and held it tight and placing her other hand to turn his head making him look at her. She stared deeply into his eyes with such sincere affection as one lover would look at another. "Naruto.......you will have your dreams come true. I will make sure of that. Even if I have to give my life for you. I will.......cause that is what I fight for....that is why I fight......I know that from the bottom of my heart. Naruto I want you to know no matter what happens..I will stick to ya and never turn away." Naruto gasped at what Ryofu had to say. He always was cold and mean to her even thought she bled her heart out for him. A feeling of certainty overtook and he smiled. She smiled back and lead Naruto away from the grave site. Before she mounted she held Naruto by the cheek and kissed him on the lips. He only let the feeling get to him. He was used to her kissing him now and although he did not say it. Ryofu was kind of growing on her.
"Naruto....Let's get you back....I think mommy might be mad if your not in your room."
"Okay.....oh and Ryofu."
"Yes?"
"Why do you go so far out of your way for me...I mean am I that worth it to you." She reassured him again with a peck to the cheek "Your more worth it to me than you realize....I know you might not say it....But I will....Naruto I am in love with you....I am willing to die for you and there's not a thing you can do about it." He just sighed and hoped back on the bike.
"Ryofu........thanks."
"Anytime Naruto...anytime." He held on to her waist and they sped back to the school
Elsewhere
Toutaku had his right hand girl right next to her. She was rubbing his chest rather sensually as he was in a throne like chair. He seemed rather calm and collected about his position, This new blonde guy training under this sensei were bothersome."
"Kaku......where is he?" He was running out of patience.
"I sent him a text message....He should be here by now." Toutaku was looking at her and leaned in to kiss her. She took it in and let him explore her mouth. He broke contact and looked at her rather evilly "So what is that he has that makes him so special?" He asked
"He came to me looking for this Naruto guy and has some information about his special power."
"Oh really...what's his name?" He pondered. Just the a man with black hair and a trench coat that was black with red clouds walked in and saw Toutaku and Kaku looking at him.
"You must be the one called Toutaku am I right."
"Yeah and?"
"I have something of interest that you might want to know about Naruto Uzumaki."
"Interesting...buy first tell me who you are so I can recognize you as a contact."
"My name...." as his eyes shifted from the black to a red cornea with a black pupil and three tear drops surrounding the pupil. His eyes pierced Kaku like a thousand daggers.
"Is Itachi.....Itachi Uchiha....that's all you need to know Toutaku......"
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
