《The Fox Prodigy》Chapter 27: New Friend
Advertisement
Naruto, Itachi, and Kisame were making there way to the Hidden Waterfall Village.
"Naruto, why did kill the Leaf Council." Itachi asked
"I'll tell you later." Naruto said
"So, you'll actually tell us?" Itachi asked for assurance.
"I don't care if people know why and what I've done." Naruto told Itachi. "Why did you slaughter your clan?" Naruto countered.
"I would like to hear this story." Kisame said, getting interested in this conversation.
Itachi sighed and told both Naruto and Kisame why he killed his entire clan. Kisame gained a new type of respect for Itachi and Naruto didn't show it but was surprised at how much of a great shinobi he was.
"So, when are you gonna tell us your story?" Itachi asked
"After the mission." Naruto said coldly ending the conversation.
They eventually got to the village entrance and entered the village unnoticed. They knew what the jinchuuriki looked like, so all they had to was look for her.
Naruto already knew where she was. She was about to leave for a mission.
*Meanwhile with Fu*
Fu and her team were about to leave for there mission.
She wanted to leave, she was tired of the stares from the villagers.
Just before they took a step her two teammates fell to the ground. She looked at there fallen bodies to see a throwing knife in there foreheads.
Fu instantly got into a fighting stance. She was examining the area around and could sense 2 people.
"I know there's two of you out there." Fu loudly stated
"You mean three, right?" Kisame mocked while revealing himself.
Itachi and Naruto appeared not short after.
Fu examined the 3 people in front of her. They all wore Akatsuki cloaks and they only revealed there heads. The one on the left had blue hair, circle eyes, and blue skin. He even had a big wrapped up sword on his back. The right one had long black hair, with black eyes. The middle one had black spiky hair, blue eyes with a red rim around them, two fangs, and...

"3 thick whiskers on each cheek."
"Why are you here?" Fu demanded.
"We just want to talk, 7 tails." Naruto simply said.
"About?"
"Our leader wants you to join the Akatsuki."
"Join the Akatsuki. Is that a joke?"
"No."
"Why do you want me to join?" Fu asked while leaving her fighting stance.
"You'd have to ask him yourself."
"What would happen if I refuse?" Fu carefully asked
"You wouldn't want to know." Naruto said while slowly activating his demon eyes.
Fu took a step back. She felt the killer intent Naruto was releasing. She noticed his eye change and was getting scared.
Fu quickly showed her wings and began flying.
"I will not join the Akatsuki." Fu proudly said.
"How about we work a deal. If I win, you join the Akatsuki. If you win I will freely let you arrest me." Naruto proposed.
"If I win, I get to turn in the Fox." Fu smirked at the offer.
"You accept?"
Fu attacked with a kunai in hand. She aimed for Naruto's head, but Naruto caught her wrist before her kunai connected to his forehead. Naruto held her to the ground in a arm lock, she couldn't move, he was to strong. Naruto pulled out his machete and held it around her neck.
"You lose." Naruto mocked
Naruto tightened his grip.
"Fine, I'll join." Fu cried.
Naruto let her go.
"Let's go." Itachi ordered
They all turned around and left. Fu hesitated, she was about to leave her home. She really didn't want but she being forced. Not soon after she followed.
"So Naruto, are gonna tell your story?" Itachi reminded everyone
"Fine, I'll tell you." Naruto sighed
Naruto told everyone why he killed the Leaf Council. He told about how corrupted they were and had to kill them all to save all of the shinobi.

Itachi was surprised Naruto had the heart to do this. Kisame didn't know how to feel about it. Fu saw this as an opportunity to make a new friend.
They eventually got to the Akatsuki hideout to report there mission.
"Mission success. The jinchuuriki has joined the Akatsuki." Naruto reported.
"Good. Naruto you will teamed with the jinchuuriki." Pain ordered.
"My name is Fu." Fu interrupted
"Very well, Fu your new teammate will be Naruto." Pain corrected himself.
"Why did you want me to join your group?" Fu asked
"I would like to have jinchuuriki as a ally, not an enemy." Pain simply said while turning towards Naruto.
"From the looks of it you didn't do any action in trying to get her. So I'm sending you on another mission." Pain said
"What's the mission?" Naruto asked
"You and Fu will go find and kill Orochimaru." Pain ordered
Everyone looked at Pain in shock. He wants them to go kill a sannin.
"Ok."
Pain left with Itachi and Kisame following him.
Fu turned to Naruto.
"Are you not worried at all?" Fu worriedly asked
Naruto kept a blank face gave Fu a Akatsuki cloak.
"Let's go." Naruto ordered but was stopped by Fu.
"Since we're teammates now, I want to know who my teammate is." Fu said with a smile.
"Ok then, you start." Naruto countered.
"Ok, I'm Fu. I'm 7 tails jinchuuriki, I like sushi, and making plenty of friends. My goal is to make a hundred friends." Fu said proudly.
"Why make so many friends?" Naruto asked.
"I saved the chief of my village and I befriended him. He told that I could make a hundred friends with how nice I am. But it's kinda hard doing that when your a jinchuuriki." Fu said sadly
Fu gestured to Naruto saying it was his turn.
"I'm Naruto Namikaze. I'm the 9 tails jinchuuriki. I love ramen, my sisters, and relaxing in the forest. I don't have a dream." Naruto told Fu.
"You don't have a dream, that's not good." Fu said in shock. Naruto just shrugged. "I'm going to help you find a dream." Fu told Naruto.
"What!?" Naruto said surprise.
"I will help you. Everyone has a dream, even if you don't know it. I will help you find your dream, I promise." Fu promised Naruto.
Naruto stood there in shock, no one ever promised him something like this.
"Let's go." Naruto ordered while trying to end the conversation.
"Yay, I made a new friend." Fu cheered.

There she's to learn which seat of power will be hers--and to which five of the Mirelands' other heirs she'll be betrothed. But things at the capitol are not well, and some of those whom she once trusted prove traitorous. In the midst of a violent coup, Nik finds herself relying on powers she can barely fathom to fight an enemy she never imagined...all for a throne she doesn't even want.

8 191Flashback: Siren Song
The year is 1969. Yancy Lazarus—bluesman, gambler, future world-class mage and fix-it man—is just a dumb, unlucky kid serving with the 3rd Battalion 3rd Marines in Vietnam.With just a few weeks left to go until Yancy gets shipped back to the States, he’s just trying to keep his head down and avoid a body bag—no mean feat in Nam. But when his squad is tasked with conducting a routine patrol deep in enemy territory, everything goes to nine kinds of hell, and he quickly sees his chances at survival slipping away.When the radio operators start to pick up some funky, dirty ol’ blues all the way out in the backcountry, it’s a nice change of pace. At least until the men in Yancy’s squad start losing their minds, turning on each other with murderous intent as the music works its deadly power within them. Convinced it’s some kind of new psychological warfare initiative, the squad leader forces the men to push deeper and deeper into the Vietnamese jungle, obsessed with locating the music’s source. What they find, however, isn’t some new technology, but an ancient spirit awoken by the terrible war. Even worse, the music is changing Yancy too, awakening something buried inside of him. Only one thing is certain, nothing is ever going to be the same.See how it all began … *** PRAISE FOR SIREN SONG:Hunter's writing is as low-down, gritty, and insidious as the blues Yancy Lazarus loves. Just like the mysterious music drifting through the jungle toward Yancy's squad, Siren Song will get under your skin and sink its hooks into your mind. —eden Hudson, Author of Halo Bound (the Redneck Apocalypse series) *** Hey everyone, this is James Hunter. This story isn't a full length novel--its a novella length work (25K words), and is part of my Yancy Lazarus series. Its already free on Amazon, so I thought I'd post chapters here for the good folks of Royal Road.
