The Ghost of the Jinchūriki
[The Next Day]
"Tsunade will you please just stop and think about what your doing?" Jiraiya pleaded as he followed Tsunade, Shizune, and Tonton as they headed for the village gate. "I'm upset at what happen to Naruto as well, but the village needs you as the Hokage and not Danzo."
"Enough Jiraiya! I made my decison" Tsunade replied furiously. "I leaving this village and this time I'm never returning."
In the last 24 hour word has spread about Tsunade leaving and naming Danzo the 6th Hokage. This put everyone in a state of fear since they were losing one of their strongest kunoichi in their time of need. Word also spread about Naruto's death to which their were mixed reaction. Some were happy the demon was dead, some were upset because he was the only thing that would have stop some of the villages and make Konoha great again, and finally their were those who were sad because they actually cared about him. All the rookies were sad when they heard the news, but ones who took it the hardest were Ino and Hinata. Ino because she was going to use him to get the other to be friends with her again since they didn't want anything to do with her, and Hinata because she loved him.
As the 3 got to the gate they saw Danzo standing there with some of his ROOT ANBUs waiting for them. While he wasn't offically the Hokage yet, he knew that the Daimyō would agree and name him the Rokudaime Hokage. "Tsunade are you ready to hand over the Slug contract?" Danzo ask in respectable and smug tone.
Just then 2 large puffs of smoke appeared behind Jiraiya and Tsunade, it Gamabunta and Katsuyu. "I'm afraid that's not going to happen Danzo" Katsuyu replied. "We of the Slug contract still see Tsunade as our one and only summoner. Furthermore the Slug contract is not property of Konoha, rather we have an an alliance and loyalty to Konoha. However after hearing that a shinobi of this village attempted to kidnap the spirit of someone who was wrongfully banished and died, we cannot and will not keep the alliance or loyalty. As of this day the Slugs are not aligned with Konoha and will not help them."
"YOU CANNOT DO THIS! THAT CONTRACT IS PROPERTY OF KONOHA!" A furious Danzo shouted.
"That's not all, we of the Toad contract cut off out alliance in loyalty to Konoha as well after hearing this" Gamabunta said before looking at Jiraiya. "Jiraiya we decided to keep you as our summoner, but let me be clear that you will be the last Konoha shinobi to be our summoner. You are still on thin ice with us for removing Naruto name from the scroll, make one more mistake and you will no longer our summoner. We will help you if you are attacked, but try to summon us to aid Konoha and we will remove your name as well."
"THIS IS ABSURD!" A livid Danzo shouted. "We need both contracts for the upcoming war! How are we going to defend ourselfs?"
"You should have thought of that before you banished Naruto Uzumaki" Katsuyu replied before she and Gamabunta went back to their summon realm.
Tsunade and Shizune, who was carrying Tonton walked past Danzo without saying a word. Danzo followed then with his eye but didn't say anything or tried to stop them. He was already planning on sending some of his ROOT after them once they got far enough from the village, he then notice Jiraiya was still following them.
"Where are you going Jiraiya?" Danzo asked in a calm voice.
"I'm going to try to convince her not to leave" Jiraiya lied as he stopped walking and glared over his shoulder at him.
"Good, maybe you can talk some sense into her" Danzo said not believing the lie. "However if your not back by nightfall then you too will be declared as and missing-nin as well." Jiraiya nodded and proceeded to walk to catch up with Tsunade.
Danzo started to walk back to the Hokage Tower while thinking of his next move. 'This just creates more problems' Danzo seethe as tries to come up with a new plan. 'Now do we not only not have Tsunade but neither the Toads or Slugs to help us in the up coming fight, and maybe not Jiraiya as well. Not only that now I have to try to keep Sasuke in control, thanks to that damn council spoiling him it's going to be harder to get him under my control.' Danzo shook his head to clear away the thoughts before looking up at the Hokage Monument. 'Damn you Hiruzen if only you listened to me then we wouldn't be in this mess.'
[With Jiraiya and Tsunade]
Once they got a good distance from the gate Tsunade asked the question that was on her mind. "Why are you following us Jiraiya?"
"What can't I take a walk with an old friend?" Jiraiya asked with a grin. Only to be greeted with deadpan stares from both Tsunade and Shizune. "Look I want to help you get to where ever your going. I wish you would stay in Konoha, but I can see that's not going to happen. We both know Danzo will most likely send some of his ROOT members after you."
"I can look after myself Jiraiya, I don't need you to protect me" Tsunade replied agitated.
"I just want to help Hime" Jiraiya pleaded.
"You really want to help?" Tsunade asked with a raised eyebrow. Jiraiya nodded and then she turned around to look him straight in the eyes. "If you really want to help then take me to where Naruto is."
[A Month Later - With Naruto]
Naruto, Ember, and Gaara have traveling through the Ghost Zone looking for the Kyuubi's soul. They had a few encounters with Walker and the Ghost Boy, but what annoyed them the most was the number of times they ran into Skulker. He would show up to try to get Ember to be his girlfriend, try to kill Naruto, he lose and then they went back to follow Naruto.
"Are you sure you are follow the Kyuubi and not just lost?" Ember asked her boyfriend with a deadpan stare.
"Yes I'm sure" a tired Naruto replied. He was already regretting agreeing to help Kaguya. "It's not my fault that whenever we get close it starts moving."
"How are you sure that it's the Kyuubi that we are following?" Gaara asked.
"I can't really explain it" Naruto replied as he looked up to think. "When I channel energy to where my seal was, I start to get this strange feeling. It an odd yet almost familiar feeling and the I get this strange gravitational pull, like a string or rope is pulling me."
"Is possible that when you do this, the Kyuubi's soul feels the same thing?" Gaara asked as he tried to imagine what his brother is feeling.
"It's possible, I mean Kaguya said that the two of us still have a bond thanks to the seal" Naruto replied.
"So it runs every time we get close to it" Ember said as she thought over this new information. "So it also would know that is you following it right?"
"Maybe...maybe not" Naruto replied as he tried to make sense of everything. "It could know it's me, but maybe it doesn't and thinks it some random ghost or something. We're close to it again which means it might run again."
"Then let's hurry and catch it before it runs off" Ember said with an annoyed tone. "I'm getting sick of chasing this thing all around the Ghost Zone." Naruto and Gaara nodded in agreement as they all picked up the pace to catch the soul before it ran off again.
[With Tsunade & Jiraiya]
Tsunade, Shizune, TonTon, and Jiraiya had just gotten to Amity Park. They got there faster then the first time because they weren't looking for someone along the way, they would have gotten there sooner but the decided the to steal some clothes to blend in. The journey there was not an easy one, just like they predicted Danzo sent some of his ROOT member to capture or kill them. Word had spread about the them leaving Konoha so they had hunter-nin, bounty hunters, Mercenaries, and squads of shinobis trying to capture them for their village. Things got a little easier when they got in open water. They still had to deal with the occasional storm, trying to figure out which direction to go, and slowly feeling their chakra leave their bodies. Once they got to land they head for Amity Park since that was where Jiraiya knew Naruto was heading and search from there.
Tsunade now wore a simple white tank top, navy blue joggers, pine green sports jacket, and black sandals. Jiraiya wore bluish gray suit jacket with matching dress pants, white long sleeve button up shirt underneath and black flip-flops. Shizune wore a plain dark blue t-shirt, blue jeans, and a pair of black runners. Tonton still wore her vest and beads just with a collar and leash on her. While they did blend in better, they still got looks since it looked like they had a pet pig.
"So this is were he was going?" Tsunade asked as they walked through the town.
"Yeah, at least that's what his girlfriend said" Jiraiya replied as he took in the sites around him. "She said she had a concert here, but that was two months ago so they most likely moved on."
"Then how do find him?" Shizune asked while still carrying Tonton.
"We ask around about a concert that happen two months ago and find out where they are going" Tsunade replied as she watch people go about their daily lives.
"Maybe we'll get lucky and run into someone who will be able to point us in the right direction" Jiraiya said with a grin as a couple young girls walk past him.
"It might be luck, but whether it's good or bad is up to you" said a calm voice behind them. All 3 turned around to come face to face with Itachi. "I thought we made it clear to never return her Jiraiya."
"Wait he only here because I asked him to bring me here" Tsunade said as she stepped in front of Jiraiya.
"And what reason does the Hokage have to come here?" Itachi asked with a raised eyebrow
"I'm not the Hokage, not anymore" Tsunade replied. "I just came here to see Naruto, I'm not here to take him back or cause problems. I just want the chance to see and talk with him again."
Itachi looked at Tsunade who lower her head, then looked at Jiraiya and Shizune. "*Sigh* Fine if that's all the I don't see a problem in you seeing him" Itachi said in an exhausted and unsure tone. All 3 of them had a smile before in turn into a frown. " Unfortunately he isn't here right now, but if you would like to wait for him I can take you to where he will be staying when he gets back." They all nodded in agreement and started to follow Itachi to where they would wait for him.
[With Naruto]
Naruto, Ember, and Gaara stood in front of a door where the Kyuubi's soul was. "Alright it's right behind this door" Naruto said as he put his hand on the doorknob. "We go in and grab it before it has the chance to run again." Ember and Gaara nodded in agreement, Naruto open the door and all 3 of them ran in. On the other side just led to a different part of Ghost Zone, they end up running onto a small floating platform and started looking for the Kyuubi's soul.
"Oh it was just you brat, here I thought I had something to worry about" a demonic voice said to them. They all looked down to see a small orange fox with nine tails inside a cage made up of golden chains at Naruto's feet.
"Is this it?" Gaara asked as he wasn't sure this was what they were looking for.
"Yeah this is what we were following" Naruto replied as he was just as confused.
"Honestly I was expecting something a little bigger in a more dangerous" Ember said as she stared at the small fox.
"Shut up!" The Kyuubi snapped at Ember. "Never mind what I look like, look kit you got to get me out of this cage right now!"
"Why? What's going on and how'd you get in there?" Naruto asked as he studied the little fox.
"Stop asking stupid questions and let me out of the cage!" The Kyuubi said with anger and urgency. "You have to let me out before she comes back!"
"She?!" asked a confused Naruto. Before anything else could be said, 3 golden chains came out of the ground and wrapped around him, Ember, and Gaara. They try to break the chains, but found they couldn't. they would have tried blasting it with ectoplasmic beams, but I found out the chains were draining them of their energy. As the chains squeezing tighter the only thing they could do was scream in pain.
"So you are trying to free my pet?" A feminine angry voice asked.
"Dammit she's back!" The Kyuubi said in a panicked voice. Out of the shadow came a woman with red hair, ocean blue eyes, and lime green skin. She was wearing a white shirt underneath a long green dress, and grey sandals. As the chains squeezed the 3 of them making them unable to move, they could see the chains were coming out of her body as she slowly walk towards them.
"I won't let you free it" she said as her hands glowed golden with energy, however this was useless since they could not hear her due to them screaming in pain. "It was the one responsible for not only my death, but also it made it so that I would never see my child grow up. If you plan on freeing it then I am just going to have to get rid of you." She raised her hand to blast Naruto first, but what the Kyuubi shouted stopped her.
"KUSHINA STOP! THAT'S YOUR SON!" The Kyuubi shouted in desperation.
Kushina lower her hand and looked at the Kyuubi. "W-W-What? What are you about? This can't be my Naru-chan." Kushina asked in a shaky voice.
"It is you have to trust me" the Kyuubi said hoping Naruto would be able to get him out of his cage after all this. "Remove those sunglasses and bandanas and see for yourself."
Kushina didn't want to trust the Kyuubi, but she had to know for sure. She loosened up the chains on Naruto but kept them still tight for Ember and Gaara. With shaky hands she slowly remove the bandana and sunglasses only to cover her mouth with her hand in shock. Naruto watched her while she did all this and couldn't understand why she had tears in her eyes.
"N-N-Naruto is it r-really you?" Kushina asked in a hopeful voice.
"Y-Yeah" Naruto replied in a confused and unsure voice. "How do you know me? Who are you?"
Kushina released him from her chains and pulled him into a hug. "I'm your mother Naruto, I'm Kushina Uzumaki."
AN: That's it, this chapter took me so long because I almost had it finished but then I hit a roadblock. I can find a way around it so I had to rewrite the whole chapter. This Chapter is shorter then the others, but for some reason I had a hard time trying to write this chapter.
Also anyone who is also following my The Journey Of The Demon Thief, I just put up a poll on who will be the first fight in chapter 8 on my profile.
Anyone who read my Family A Dimension Away I will be rewriting it soon. The first chapter is probably just going to be a part of the existing chapter, so that won't change much. the story will still be the same, just I'll add detail, more plot to it. I plan to make the chapters short so don't expect long chapters. So anyone who is interested just the heads up, but I will say this because I got one guest reviewer who really didn't like this. THERE WILL BE NO PAIRINGS, he will be a big brother figure only. I'm trying to step out of the template that he needs to have some sort of relationship with someone. I will admit that it adds drama and depth of the story, but again it will have no pairings.
If you want tell me how good or bad it was, what you thought needed to be add or expanded, or just your thoughts on it, leave it in the reviews or PM me.
Until the next story (If there is one).
