Naruto woke up and was in a room. He looked around noticed Kakashi and Shikaku. He also saw Gaara and his siblings. They were awake. Naruto slowly sat up and he world spun.

"What happened while I was out?" Naruto slurred.

"Naruto your awake!" Kakashi smiled.

Temari walked over and checked his eyes, shining s light. They didn't respond. She frowned.

"He still isn't well." She sighed. "You need rest Naruto lay down." Temari laid him down.

Naruto blinked and whimpered as he remembered what happened at the summit. Naruto moved his arms and covered his eyes with them both and sighed, biting his lip. Kakashi sighed and moved to him and kissed his lips.

"Please don't stress. That's unhealthy for your condition." Kakashi stated.

"...who cares about my condition. We are going to have to fight in a war..." Naruto mumbled.

Kakashi looked a Gaara who made his way over. Gaara moved his hand to Naruto's stomach and traced the seal. Naruto jumped and looked at him.

"Naruto your an important part of this. If the enemy gets ahold of you and The Rilage;'s brother we are doomed. Your condition matters." Gaara stated.

"..." Naruto moved his hand off his stomach.

"..." Naruto stood and swayed but caught his balence and slowly moved to the door and opened it only to feel Shikaku grab his leg.

"Naruto lay back down you need rest." He stated.

"..." Naruto eyed him.

His eyes turned red. And his tail grabbed him by he neck and threw him into the far wall, earning a grunt from Shikaku.

" Don't. Tell. Me. What. To. Do." Naruto turned around and leaned on the wall and walked out.

Gaara stood and Kakashi did as well and walked outside and closed the door. Gaara looked at the way Naruto walked. He frowned noeing Naruto was straining himself to stay standing. Kakashi walked up beside him while Gaara walked behind him.

"Naruto please stop." Kakashi said.

"No..." Naruto said weakly.

Kakashi was a few feet in front of him and when Naruto got to him Kakashi lightly pushed Naruto. Naruto lost his balance and fell backwards into Gaara's arms.

"Naruto, you can hardly walk. I know your upset. We all are. But you need your rest. I know what's best." Kakashi said.

"Naruto you deserve to be beaten...I know what's best! Now listen to your mother!"

Naruto closed his eyes and his ears hung low as Gaara dragged him towards an empty room. Naruto went limp as he was being dragged gently. Kakashi picked up Naruto's legs so he wasn't dragging and they carried the tired teen into the empty room. Gaara set him down carefully on he bed and Kakashi laid his legs down on it and pulled the sheets up to his shoulders and tucked him in.

"..." Naruto kept his eyes closed.

"Why is something like you in a meeting as imprtant as this one?"

"HAH A GENIN!? YOU CHOSE A GENIN AS YOUR GUARD!?"

Tch...pathetic. look at the freak. He's hidious with those tails an ears. He looks like a stick...he looks frail."

"Bee lived his life with the beast like you and hasn't killed a single person. Even when it was hard to control. This means you are weak. Tch...you are nothing but a burden to your village. It was destroyed because of you. Your temporary kage made a poor decision to bring you here. You have no right to be amongst us Kage."

Tears fell from his eyes and he curled up in the bed. He felt awful. Weak. Useless. Nothing but a burden...a freak.

A waist of space.

Gaara was surprised to see Naruto crying. Kakashi was too. But Gaara knew fullwell what he was feeling. He remembered dealing with it growing up. Kakashi looked at Kakashi for help.

"You feel like their is no room in life for a teen who is treated like he is wanted dead aren't you?" Gaara asked.

Naruto nodded weakly and sobbed quietly. Gaara sighed and walked to him and yanked his arm and took his weapon pouch off and grabbed a Kunai and pulled his sleeve down and placed the Kunai at his wrist, over already existing scars.

"You want to feel pain don't you...you want to feel something besides emotional pain?" Gaara asked.

Naruto nodded weakly. Kakashi was alert after this. He watched with weariness. Temari and Kankuro walked in and gasped but watched, waiting to see if Gaara would harm Naruto before acting like Kakashi was doing.

"You want to blade in your chest don't you...?" Gaara moved it to Narutos chest.

Naruto nodded and leaned slightly on the blade and it cut into his chest lightly. Gaara frowned and placed the blade into his hand and hovered it over his own shoulder.

"You want to hurt me right now don't you? You feel a sick pleasure out of killing. I know how it feels. It's torture...yet paradise. It's a hell tats hard to come back from." Gaara spoke.

Naruto's and shook as he wanted to stab his friend.

"You can if you want t-ahg!" Gaara winced as the blade went straight through his shoulder.

Kakashi gasped and Temari and Kankuro growled and ran at then but Sans tripped them, dragging them back towards the door. Naruto had a sick look in his now red eyes. He watched Gaara's blood drip from his wound and mouth. He shook and ripped the blade out. Garage winced but sighed. He took the blade and wiped the blood onto his hand and held it to Naruto.

"You dread blood...but love it right?" Gaara spoke.

"Y-yeah..." Naruto nodded.

"Naruto. You have other ways to deal with these problems. Talk to Kakashi. Punch a wall til your knuckles bleed. Burn out energy working out. Rasengan a wall. You don't need to see blood. Or kill to feel alive you she people right in front of you that love you. Care about you...would do anything to keep you safe. And happy. Listen to them. We all know what's best for you." Gaara smiled.

Naruto placed his hand over the wound and nine tails chakra flooded into him Gaara went wide eyed as he felt nothing but bloodlust, haterid, and suffering flow into his body. He looked at Naruto with shocked red eyes. His wound healed and Naruto extracted the chakra and removed his hand. Naruto hugged him out of no where.

"I'm scared Gaara! I can't take this much more! I don't want to be an important part of this war! I don't want to be a Jinchuriki! I dont eant to be the cause of my friends death!" Naruto cried. "I've lost friends...Sakrura, Shikamaru! Jirayah! I don't want to lose any more!" Naruto shook.

"Kurama laughed loudly.

Naruto winced and gripped his chest, his heart rate increased rapidly and he breathed shakily. Gaara looked worried.

"Naruto calm down your going to hyperventilate and pass out again!" Gaara spoke.

Kakashi and The siblins ran over and Temari and Kankuro checked Gaara for anymore wounds.

"Gaara why did you prevoke him?" Temari asked confused.

"Yes...why?" Kankuro asked.

"He's scared to die. You can tell. Thrty second ago he wanted to die..." Gaara stated. "I fixed him. If may not look like it. But once he wakes up he will feel better. Trust me." Gaara sighed as Naruto past out.

Kakashi understood what Gaara did. After Naruto was left alone in hat room to rest Kakashi walked into his own room and rested. Gaara stayed up and thought more on the new Allied Shinobi force thing. Gaara smile gently as he thought to himself.

Your strong Naruto. And I'm glad you fear death because you won't harm yourself...

Sometimes...

It's perfectly okay to be afraid.
