Chapter 3

The fox and the raven

naruto ran to were the large crowd was now gathering. The image of pleading hazel eyes burning fresh in his mind. He heard a weak whimper even above the loud banter coming from the exited crowd. How could they be so happy at the sight of someone else's pain. It made his skin crawl. Naruto really did hate fighting.

he pushed threw the mob of excited teenagers. When his eyes landed on a feminine chocolate haired teen oddly slumped against a locker. With a black knee high boot pressed against their face.

"ugh poor kid that girl Karin is ruthless that kid haku didn't even do anything." a brown haired girl whispered to her friend.

"um excuse me but can you please tell me what happened." naruto asked the girl who had just spoke.

"oh well you see that girl Karin tripped that boy haku and now her and her friends are gonna beat him up." the girl explained.

Naruto felt the rage slowly building up in the pit of his stomach before flowing threw his entire body. And before he knew it he was pushing the red haired bitch Karin off his newly acquired friend. "what the fuck is your problem?" naruto yelled.

Karin pushed herself from the locker that she had been pushed into. Although she was clearly shocked that someone had dared to push her.

"that dumb ass scuffed my shoe." she laughed. "and you must be really brave or really stupid do you know who I am." Karin asked examining her French manicure.

"like I care about some hateful bitch like you." I yelled while helping haku stand up.

"hey you better show some respect" came the gruff voice of a silver haired teen.

naruto leaned haku against a locker behind him. And turned toward the two troublesome teens. And then he slightly panicked. In the front was the girl Karin with straight red hair. She wore a tight black mini skirt with a tight crimson tube top with a leather jacket.

Next to her was a teen with straight medium length silver hair. He wore plain white T, with baggy blue jeans and black Jordan's. But really freaked naruto out was his creepy shark like smile.

Then naruto noticed the third guy, he had spiky bright orange hair. He wore a black T with baggy cargo pants and red and white up towns. Naruto had to admit over all he was pretty sexy.

"you better watch your mouth." Karin said with a smirk breaking the silence.

"and why should I care what you say dumb bitch." naruto said laughing at Karin's face which now looked like it was ready to blow.

"jugo fuck this idiot up." Karin screamed pointing at naruto.

"I don't have to listen to you your not the leader besides I would hate to mess up a pretty face like his." jugo said winking at naruto. Naruto laughed at how mad that stupid girls face was getting.

"fine then I'll handle this myself your so useless." Karin yelled.,

Naruto readied himself to fight Karin and that freaky shark boy. But before Karin could even take two steps her head smashed into the locker next to her with a sickening crack. Naruto turned to look at the person who had helped him and saw none other then sakura.

"if you ever threaten to beat up naruto I'll really kick your ass you dumb skank." sakura calmly stated examining her manicured nails.

"sakura look out." naruto screamed pointing at the shark boy charging towards her. Sakura got ready to dodge, but a fist came in the silver haired teens path effectively breaking his nose. He rolled on the ground holding his bleeding nose. "hey you two alright?" came a familiar voice.

naruto smiled feeling comforted that friends were with him. "yeah kiba were fine." naruto said with a smile. Karin stood up on unsteady legs. Reaching into her left jacket pocket., pulling out a small knife before walking unsteadily walking towards naruto. There was a frenzied look in her eyes that he didn't like and told him one thing. That the bitch was crazy. But once again before she could take two steps she was thrown against a locker but this time his savior was a black haired teen with obsidian eyes. He wore baggy black pants with a red famous shirt. Over all he was a walking sex god.

"I didn't give you any orders to hurt any one" came the cold voice. The voice sent shivers down naruto's spine. It scared him it was the kind of voice that was capable of doing anything. But at the same time it was oddly soothing like it made him want to get closer to him.

"um thank you for your help." naruto said gazing into his cold black eyes. "hn dobe he said walking away silently with my attackers following suit. "Teme I'm not a dobe I was just trying to be nice and say thank you ass hole. He stopped walking and looked at me. "I like you your very interesting." he said before he left the now empty hallway. naruto got up and headed towards haku. "are you all right haku." he asked looking at the rapidly forming bruise on haku's face. "I'm fine thank you naruto I'm sorry that you had to go threw that for me." haku said trying to avoid looking at naruto's face. "no it's fine I was happy to help any way who were those assholes." naruto said while helping haku to stand. "there the schools top gang." haku said fear evident in his voice.

"so that's Akatsuki." naruto said in a whisper looking at sakura and kiba who were now coming over.

"no Akatsuki is disbanded this new gang is called karasu." haku said amazed that the trio didn't know this piece of information. "naruto me and kiba are gonna go check this out we'll be right back." sakura said before running of with kiba. "anyway can you please bring me to the nurses office I think I want to rest there for a little while." haku asked.

"yeah no problem." naruto said starting to walk towards the nurses office with haku.

"thanks for bringing me naruto and for helping me out with those jerks." haku said with a smile as he entered the nurses office.

naruto leaned against the wall down the hallway. When he saw the orange haired kid from before jugo naruto was pretty sure that was his name . He stopped walking and stared at naruto for a moment.

"umm do you need something." naruto asked the intimidating male.

"yes sasuke uchiha would like you and your friends to meet him in the foot ball field after school." jugo said handing him a piece of paper. Then naruto noticed the red liquid running down the left side of his face. "hey your bleeding." naruto said looking at the large gash on his forehead. "I'll be right back." naruto said before racing off towards the nurses office. Naruto quickly made it back to jugo. Then he dragged him into an empty class room. "alright hop on the table and I'll fix you up." naruto said with a smile. Jugo gave him a quizzical look but obeyed none the less. Jugo's body went stiff as naruto's hands worked around his wound. "you need to relax I'm helping you not hurting you. You know like a parent kissing your boo boo's." naruto said with a laugh.

"I've never had parents." jugo calmly stated. Naruto could see threw Jugo's imperfect mask that although he acted calm he was just like him no parents to love them. "so how'd you get that nasty cut?" naruto asked.

"suigetsu Karin were mad at me." he said in a mono tone voice.

"that's horrible." naruto said in shock

"it's fine there the only people there for me even if there ass's sometimes. You just don't understand gangs at all."

"ha-ha I know more than you'll ever know." naruto said standing up with a bitter smile.

"why did you help me?" jugo asked. Looking into clear cerulean eyes.

"because I think your different from all those other ass holes. Naruto said with a kind smile.

Naruto gently grabbed Jugo's head and kissed the bandage. Naruto smiled kindly at jugo before walking towards the door.

"I've never had any one to kiss my boob boo's either bye jugo." naruto said before slipping out of the empty class room

"please let him be ok don't let sasuke break his innocent soul." jugo said shaking his head .
