Chapter 5- Seduction in Tantan
Naruto felt the world get brighter and shift around him. In his semiconscious his tried to lift his eyes but shut them closed again as an unbearably bright light invaded and stung his eyes. That was not the only pain that Naruto felt though. There was this stinging pain inside him that was pulsing up and down his spinal cord and stomach but generally, his ass hurt. Naruto tried to turn over but pain flared up from the excess movement and the blonde softly hissed at the pain. He then felt something damp on his forehead and tightness around his body. Naruto tried opening his eyes again and eventually getting used to the bright light he looked at the dark spot of his vision as it came into focus. Red hair, milky unscathed skin, dark rings, ai(1) tattoo and aquamarine eyes. . . .
Naruto's eyes snapped open and looked in shock at the red head. Surprise gripped him as he pushed the ninja away but only succeeded in squirming violently before stopping and hissing as more pain shot through his body.
"Stop squirming. You are only going to hurt yourself."
Oh yeah Gaara….
"Hehe. Gomen(2), Mourning amnesia?" Naruto said sheepishly while taking in his surroundings again and realized they were in the middle of the desert, still, which is why it was so hot, and he was also being carried bridal style by the smexy man in red and black with an umbrella of sand hovering above them. Naruto blushed at his position.
"Gaara… I can walk you know"
"No"
"Gaara I don't like being man handled"
"No"
"But!"
"Do you want to get revenge on Uchiha or not"
The blonde puffed out his cheeks, "You are pure evil. You know that?"
The sides of Gaara's mouth twitched a little as if almost a smile. And he continued walking.
Naruto kept silent in Gaara's arms but was soon getting bored and asking Gaara to entertain him was definitely not on the agenda. Everyone would know that boredom and Uzumaki Naruto do NOT mix. So the cunning fox boy decided to do something about it instead.
Naruto began to pull his hands in a seal. But before he could do that a very pissed Gaara death glare was turned onto his face.
"Don't even. . . think . . .about it"
An evil fox like smirk adorned Naruto's features. "I'm just a helpless uke Gaara sama. What can I do" he said with heavy sarcasm. "Eat this panda man. Taijuu kage bunshin no jutsu(3)!" and a million Naruto's fazed into the desert scenery and Gaara found his arms empty of the comfortable warmth. But he was up for a little fun from the blond as he knew o how much fun always spouted from his.. actions. Oh Gaara would indeed eat this.
The millions of Naruto's quickly drew their guns and let a volley of bullets fly towards the other stoic man. A wall of sand came up around said person efficiently blocking the ammunition as clouds of dust rose into the air. After the first volley the horde of blonds stopped and looked at the smooth surface of Gaara's ultimate defence ball thing. After a moment of silence a rumbling could be heard deep within the earth and the sand rose slowly in front of the ball. Slowly rising was a giant piece of glass that rose higher and higher until it was 50 metres in the air hanging ominously. The defence ball around Gaara fell to the ground and he brought one hand into a seal. "Kai! (4)" he shouted and in a flourish the sand covering flew off the glass and the sun blared through it and focused into a beam. With sand on the sides guiding it the death beam swung around and in a line set Naruto clones on fire everywhere it touched and left a shine on the sand. Naruto grimaced at realisation he was going to lose like this but he continued his strategy to complete his plan.
All the blonds (that were not on fire) constructed seals and shouted "HENGE!! (5)" Gaara stopped his fun by covering the glass with sand and positioned himself ready as the smog started clearing away. The red head tensed up all his muscles at the sight his eyes feasted upon.
About 500 Naruto's were naked with blushes and big watery blue eyes everywhere. Some of them even had fox tails and large fluffy ears. Gaara eyes widened and the hair stood up on the back of his neck
"Gaara!" "Gaara sama! (6)" "Panda man" "tanuki(7)" "take me now" "onegai(8)" "we love you" "I want nothing else" "Gaara" "meow" "it's so hot under the sun" "Kyaaaa" "Sand man" shouted all of the cute blondes all striking a different pose and the closest ones draping themselves over the wide eyed red head.
Now understand that Gaara does not nose bleed, and he forbids himself from blushing. . . but this is a special occasion. So Gaara's body went limp in the multiple arms of his blond with a slight blush dusting his features, eyes rolled into the back of his head, mouth agape but no nose bleed (Gaara does not nose bleed). Naruto unpoofed all his clones and limped to his koi's very limp, very unconscious, side and lay Gaara's head in his lap soaking up his victory. Naruto looked lovingly at the face below him and sniggered while letting a Cheshire cat/fox grin widen over his whiskered face.
CRACK!
Naruto stared at the face of Gaara that had a huge crack along the side that was growing. Panicking he grabbed some sand and rubbed it into the crack to make it go away but the rest of the face shattered and the blond was practically panicking now desperately trying to stop the cracks. Suddenly Gaara completely turned to sand in the blonds sight.
OMG! I BROKE HIM!!
"How did I know you were going to do that?" said a voice behind the stoic blond. Naruto turned slowly around to look up at the figure blocking the sun.
"But my clones got some good pictures though"
Naruto glared at his seme. "I knew it" said the blond then pointing an accusing finger at Gaara "You're a pervert!!"
Gaara for once let a small smile grace his features then stepped forward and swept the blond up bridal style in his arms with little difficulty.
"But I'm your pervert" and then Gaara pressed his lips chastely against Naruto's whom pressed his lips upwards as well. After a while Gaara pulled his head back and continued walking across the desert. The blond in Gaara's arms snuggled in, contented and his eyes slowly slid closed as the soothing beat of his koi's heart lulled him back to sleep again.
A/N That was cute sniff sniff
TIME SKIP !!!
Tantan town was well known for its name all around the country of fire and various parts of the world. As suggested by its name 'vigilant hostility' it used to be a convicts village for outcasts but had recently been taken over by bounty hunters. Still a very hostile village being very suspicious of strangers was now with large hotels, saloons, whore houses, stores, an abundance of reward chasers, wanted posters and more importantly, information. This was exactly why the duo even dared to step into its tall wooden gates that morning.
But knowing that every corner of the world was printed with posters of Naruto's face a disguise was in order so only the animals that knew the feeling of impending danger would acknowledge their identity.
In the village at the gates were two men that were keeping watch for the day along the east side, where the main road to no where was. I.e. The desert. So they counted on doing nothing that whole day and just chatting about the latest news.
"So did ya hear about Red Gun?" spit, TING! Said one man with a scars, stitching and rough tattoos all over his face and arms as well as brown hair sticking out of his head in a pineapple like manner and an eye patch to complete the look, spitting whatever he was chewing into a small bronze vase about 2 metres away.
"Mm, I still can't believe they would up and do that considering all they've done together" spit, TING! Said the other who had red tattoos under his eyes and white hair.
"Almost sounds like you feel sorry" spit, TING!
"Pfft, those cold hearted can go to hell for all I care" spit, Ting!
"Yea, just one less of 'em we have to worry about" spit, TING!
The man with the small, red emo tattoos under his eyes took a look out over the red desert and was almost shocked when he saw a horse riding towards Tantan from the distance.
"…. Do you see what I see Waraji?"
"ehh?" the other man looked where his friend was pointing and squinted at the blotch on the horizon.
The other slapped his forehead realizing he forgot about Waraji's lack of depth perception with his eye patch.
"One horseman coming in from the desert, should we call the deputy?"
"We'll see when they get here, Zori" (9)
The horse came closer and it was revealed that two people were on the horse. One was a tall red head that showed no expression and sent a cold chill down your spine. He wore long black pants and a crimson trench coat like outfit over the top as well as pouches on his hip that contained who knew what with a long belt wrapped twice around his hips.
But the person that caught their attention was the blond deity riding side saddle in front of that man. Waraji and Zori's eyes both gawked mentally as they lay their eyes on a thin, hourglass figure with long shining blond hair drawn up into two long pigtails that fluttered in the wind. Light, slightly tanned skin covered by bright orange/red kimono that exposed just enough cleavage to show ample bosoms below a dainty neck attached to an angelic face that had to have been carved by angels. Small petite nose, 3 strange whisker scars on each cheek and wide sky blue eyes hidden slightly under a fringe.
The horse stopped next to the men just as they recovered.
"What brings you Tantan stranger?" said Zori
"Just passing through" coldly replied the red head.
"Through the desert?" snapped Waraji focusing on the red headed man.
He was about to reply when the blond goddess softly placed her forefinger on his lips quickly silencing him. All her movements were graceful but calculated making her seem even more exotic to the men.
"I'll handle this koi(10), why don't you go tie the horse up. I'll be there in a sec"
Both men put their hands on their weapons at this statement. "And just why would we le-"
But both men quickly lost there voices as the woman slid off the saddle making her kimono ride up swiftly giving them a nice flash that gave Waraji a nose bleed at the scant clothing she wore underneath.
The stoic man's lips twitched at the sides as he rode into the busy town.
The woman watched her man ride off and turned the stunning eyes back to the men in front of her/him.
"Now what did you boys want to ask?" she said in a lilting voice stepping up to Waraji and fingering his small beard while eyeing Zori.
Zori, being the intelligent one, managed to ask "Who are you and what business do you have in Tantan?"
"Oh I'm sorry my name is Tenso Naruko and as Mr. Grumpy said we are just stopping for supplies and moving on, but let's talk about something else. Like what is your name?"
"WARAJI!" "ZORI!" they both blurted out simultaneously causing Naruko to chuckle lightly.
Naruko stepped around a wooden beam that supported the huge sign and looked over the desert before looking back at the two men that were following like zombies.
"Now what are two handsome men like yourselves doing in the middle of the day watching the road to the desert?"
"Just watching for people that come along Miss because someone got to do it."
"Oh that reminds me, do you two lovely gentlemen know where a hotel is? I would hate to be alone in the streets tonight. Maybe you two could.. accompany me? I would be ever so grateful," said Naruko in a bedroom voice pulling the sleeves of her kimono down slightly as if in a gesture to relieve the heat of the day slightly.
Waraji and Zori's nostrils flared before their primal instincts kicked in and they circled the maiden going in for a grope like the lecherous men they were. But just as they were about to the muse spun out of the way laughing merrily.
"You'll have to be faster boys"
The men spun and lunged at her again but she ducked out of the way and leaned against the wooden pillar again with fence on either side of her.
"Got you now my pretty" muttered Zori as both took a flying tackle at the goddess.
In a swirl of kimono Naruko jumped high into the air smirking as both men slammed into the pillar shaking the structure and then landing on their heads with both knees to make sure they were unconscious.
Naruko then swiped off their loaded money pouches and stood up fixing her hair before turning away from the scene.
Naruko smirked and began walking the way her koi had left calling "otankonasu! (11)" laughing joyfully fixing the kimono as she went down the street.
Gaara waited on the porch of the kanwa(12) saloon that was supposed to be the centre for gossip in this town. A place for gambling, food, drink, pleasure and hotel rooms (that he hoped to use later cough cough).
Gaara looked up and his mood lightened a bit as the familiar (or not so familiar as it was recently disguised) face of his koi. Gaara stepped out into the street and noted the hungry eyes following the movements of the blond but he quickly ignored that as his love ran into his arms and kissed his cheek. The taller red head turned his attention to the being in his arms and turned around so he was leading his 'lady' into kanwa saloon.
The swing doors opened and the saloon was silent for a second but went back to their activities immediately after they all got a good look. A lot of men still eyeing Naruko as if he/she was a piece of choice meat. Gaara and Naruko nodded to each other and split up with Gaara joining a card game and Naruko going over to a table of lean looking men who were looking at wanted posters, some of them with large crosses over the pictures.
The men looked up at the person who sat down in the free chair of the table with mixed expressions.
"Hello little lady what brings you here this evening. Looking for a little company?"
Naruko chuckled coyly, "actually I was looking for some information and you fine boys seem to know a lot"
The man who had spoke smiled predatorily, "why don't you come sit in my lap and you can ask for anything you want"
Naruko stopped in mid speech like a deer in headlights.
"Please, I insist"
Naruko regained her composure and forced a smile onto her lips and gracefully stood up and sauntered over to the mans side when a hand whipped out grabbing her wrist and pulled her towards another man who whispered huskily into her ear.
"Why don't you sit with me instead lovey? I'm twice the man that boy will ever be"
The first man stood up and abruptly and looked at the intruders eyes "I asked the little lady first slack so hands off"
"Surely you can share partner"
The first man growled and the second smirked licking a line over one whiskered cheek. Naruko narrowed her eyes and bashed her elbow into the mans stomach that made him let go and keel over holding his gut in pain.
The first mans features lightened as Naruko walked over to him and sat in his lap.
"Well my feisty little vixen(13) what can I do for ya?"
Naruko leaned closer till her lips were bare inches from the burly mans ear and breathed huskily over it sending shivers down his spine. Whispering into his ear she said "Can you tell me anything about 'red gun'?"
The man froze up and looked at the blond in front of him with new opinion.
"What about them?"
"Give me any recent news since Uzumaki Naruto got kicked out"
His eyes narrowed even more but he opened his mouth to speak regardless.
"Some men would pay me thousands to hear that, what can you do to make it worth my while?"
The man looked at her expectantly thinking of the only way this girl could possibly live up to his statement. The blond deity smirked in a knowing way and drew a heavy bag from under her kimono.
"I'm sorry dear sir but I only have $2000 on me at the moment so if I give you this and a kiss, that's worth your while will you tell me?"
The man took the bag and looked inside and nodded looking a bit put out but satisfied at the proposal none the less.
Naruko took the rough face in her hands and swallowed at its ugliness. She inhaled slowly and thought of something else. Thought of smooth planes under red hair.
Naruko, fully imagining she was about to kiss Gaara leaned down and locked the mans lips in a fiery kiss going as far as plunging her tongue into the sour cavity but quickly retracting it at the unfamiliar mouth but the man took the chance and thrust his tongue out. Naruko held the kiss even though a disgustingly slimy tongue was in her throat but she kept thinking it was Gaara. But it was hard.
The bar became silent as the male dominated place looked towards the kiss wishing desperately that lucky man was them. Gaara looked up at the silence and saw HIS koi snogging some other man! Oh how he wanted to punch that guys lights out and then squash his body into little bloody bits with his sand and then teach his blonde a lesson.
Naruko broke the kiss and gasped for air, which thoroughly aroused the entire room. The man below her then whispered into her ear quickly "The last location they struck was mirai bank in the Tea country that's all the information I have and for that kiss you can keep your money" said the man slipping the bag into her kimono put giving her boobs a tweak as well. Naruko blushed but refrained from punching the man.
Getting out of the guys lap she walked over the room and sat on a stool and ordered some whisky. Gaara then took his winnings and left to sit next to his koi, ignoring the noise that resumed throughout the saloon.
"So did you get any information?"
Naruko glared at Gaara then replied "It looks like we're going to the Tea country, home of fat banks and onsens(14)" then went back to downing the drink which surprised nearby men beyond anything at the rate and quantity this lithe woman could drink and their lecherous thoughts and plans that followed.
The two stayed in silence even when the blond had finished the glass an ordered a glass of water next as she didn't feel like drinking any more. But then something caught her attention.
"And I was like WOAH man chill! Just cause you can't pin down one of your girls there doesn't mean you should get hard at me!" the adjacent men hollered in laughter at the drunken man retelling his story.
Naruko looked at the man and thought he looked familiar for a second.
"N-Now this blond looked at me like this!" and the drunk pulled a gob smacked expression causing more laughter. "Then he started this whole speech on how he didn't NEED to and how GREAT he was anyway. He was SOME leader I can see how red gun kicked him out in the first place!"
Naruko tensed up a bit. She/he hated conversations that revolved around her/him. Just hope it doesn't go too far.
"Uzumaki Naruto(15), what an idiot! It's no wonder his parents dumped him seeing how stupid he is."
Another guy spoke up "Come on mate he's a monster too and wasn't entirely his fault"
Naruko/Naruto was angry now. Thinking angrily to herself Oh how little do these freaks actually know?!
Then the main drunk spoke up again "Well your right I guess they threw him away cause it was bestiality instead of incest!! (16)" The bar burst into laughter smacking the tables in their mirth.
Naruko stood up and stormed over to that table and smacked her hand onto the table shouting at the men "What the HELL do you know about me anyway TEME(17)!! It doesn't look like you've gotten a girl anytime since I last kicked your ass you damn drunk!! Believe it!"
The bar was so silent at that moment you could have heard a pin drop. Unlike the drunken men the bounty hunters stood up smirking at the blond.
Naruto in disguise stood albeit stunned and said "woops"
Bounty hunters cracked their knuckles at the prize they were about to collect. Oh the great Uzumaki Naruto in disguise. Except the burly man who got kissed and was now spluttering and trying to drown the taste out of his mouth with alcohol.
Gaara slapped his forehead at Naruto's temper but quickly stood up and stood alongside the blond causing a bit a confusion around the bar until one particularly old guy shuddered and pointed at the red head saying "Sabaku no Gaara!"
Enough said to cause the entire bar to start a brawl.
Bar Brawl Scene (no it's not gorry just fun)
Gaara constructed a seal and shouted out "Sabaku wa Tamari-"
"Gaara! No sand!!"
Gaara scorned as he dodged a volley of bullets with Naruto (still in female form for the rest of the fight) alongside him. Naruto did the spilts to avoid a swing with a chair and kicked the guys legs from underneath him then flipped back onto her feet throwing kicks and punches left and right.
While Gaara had grabbed a deers head from the wall and was currently charging at a bunch of bounty hunters that were running away. Eventually Gaara spun around quickly throwing the head so the horns pinned a man to the wall who fainted from shock but he didn't have time to gloat as a bullet missed his ear by a whisker. Gaara ran towards a wall with a group of men running after him and ran up the wall in front of him. The men gasped slightly as he flipped over their heads and then thrust a furious round house kick getting all 5 men and sending them flying into the right wall.
Naruko/Naruto was currently manoeuvring around a pillar so that every punch missed and hit the pillar round and round this game of cat and mouse played until Naruto called out "Kaze shuriken! (18)" and cut the pillar at the top and bottom then pushed it onto the shocked man who was instantly crushed/knocked out.
But suddenly a huge man came from the kitchen holding a massive mace and was smirking at the much smaller woman.
"Eep"
Spinning around Naruko dived under a table as a mace crashed down in the place she just was with a loud 'crack!' Naruko hastily crawled from one table to the next as the mace destroyed every table till she was backed up against a pillar with the man raising the mace about to bring it down. But as the mace made its slow arc downwards Naruto grabbed the pillar behind and used its support so she could bring her legs up and catch the mace between her feet. The man had time to be stunned for a second before Naruto twisted her body around so it sent the twist along the mace and threw the man to the floor before she pushed herself off the wall and did an elbow smash in the middle of the guys back causing him to splutter and lose consciousness.
Naruko then had two men running towards her from the right and the left so she jumped into a splits kick that connected with both their faces then she flipped backwards again into a bit safer area.
Eventually after hard fighting Naruto and Gaara found themselves back to back and surrounded by a large group of the remaining bounty hunters and most of the hunters that were battered but not unconscious all holding weapons of some sort. Aces, maces, pistols, rifles and some holding furniture grumbled darkly as they came closer and closer around their targets.
Gaara licked his lips and slowly raised his fingers in an upwards motion discreetly causing sand to creep from between the floor boards and pool at his feet without any one noticing, except the blond beside him.
Naruto grabbed Gaara's fingers, stopping them from moving, "No Gaara! I said no sand!"
On of the beaten men stepped forward trembling slightly, "don't move! We have you cornered so come quietly."
"Any other bright ideas then?!" said Gaara glaring darkly at the blonde.
"Stop talking and reach for the sky fags!" shouted one of the bounty hunters.
"Your not making another blood bath!" snapped Naruto back.
"Are you suggesting I can't control myself?!"
"When it comes to-"
"I SAID STOP YAPPING" screamed the bounty hunter squeezing the trigger of his pistol.
A shot whizzed through the air at Gaara and nicked into his cheek before imbedding itself in the pillar behind him.
Both Gaara's and Naruto's eyes went wide and Naruko started trembling and transformed back into his male self.
"O-o shit. Y-you didn't, you d-didn't" Naruto mumbled to himself as blood quickly streaked down from the gash.
Gaara pulled a hand up to his face and wiped some blood off the cheek and looked at the dark crimson streaks on his fingers. The red heads aura changed suddenly to killer intent and his gaze darkened at the red on his hands.
"Nobody makes me bleed my own blood." He turned his gaze to the man who was scared shitless, for good reason. "NOBODY!"
Sand columns erupted through every crevice in the building with a horrendous tremor and snatching all the men in the bar in cold pillars that only revealed their heads that were all lime white.
"Die, Sabaku Kyuu(19)!" Gaara whispered and clenched his stained hand into a fist that gave the monstrous amount of sand motion into a deadly squeeze that splattered blood of the bounty hunters all over the bar.
Somehow Gaara was untouched by the blood but stayed in that position soaking in the scene as a drop of blood from his hand fell softly to the floor.
Naruto was a bit stunned, but not traumatized. He was used to death, he just didn't like inflicting it if the act could be avoided, but Gaara was right about one thing that night. The red head had controlled himself. On closer inspection only 5 of the bounty hunters were dead and the rest were just unconscious with broken bones and such.
Gaara had changed, Naruto thought even if only a little. The fact there wasn't human paste everywhere was proof enough. Naruto looked up from his spot behind a pillar he had run to earlier.
Gaara looked up slowly at the blonde with the smallest smile on his lips, his arms already had fallen lax by his sides his entire body trembling violently as blood dripped from his gash.
"See? I told you that I could control myself" he said wearily, as if the mere thought of his blood would cause him to faint. Naruto ran forward to support Gaara and lead him up to one of the hotel rooms upstairs. Naruto kicked open the door, relieved there was no whore in there, and lead Gaara onto a bed while grabbing a washer to wipe away the blood. Gaara lost himself to the sensation and closed his black ringed eyes and his trembling eased to almost nothing.
Naruto stared at his face for a while before leaning down slowly and placing his lips chastely on Gaara's forehead.
"I love you Gaara, no matter what"
Naruto then stood up and walked to the door to start to 'clean' up the mess that was downstairs.
Naruto sighed.
Just another job for a lot of Naruto's, bandages and booze. Oh well.

Yayness! ZOMG tis like 12 pages long. I thoroughly enjoyed the bar brawl scenes. The are so fun to write!
Also and apology for no lemon in this chapter. Gomenasai! It was planned and there was going to be bondage and stuff but after writing Gaara ended up with a fear of his own blood instead. Plot before smut, but I promise to have some quality lemon, lime and smut in the next chapter!
In the next chapter-
The duo flees to the tea country without anyone knowing, because of Naruto's great cleaning up skills, and continues to track down 'red gun.' There will more fights between old enemies, passion, romance and are there in fact more snakes then ladders?
I love you all
So review damnit! Give me cool fighting moves and stuffs!
And the prize is a Gaara plushie in leather!
Ja ne
