Sorry its been a while! This chapter would have been longer, but I was having struggles. It's actually right after Naruto says Hathor's secret name where I hit my block. I just can't put the words I want together and its making me mad!

READ BEFORE READING:

I made Hathor the goddess of love, motherhood and health. I know thats a lot, but she's been described as all three during the ages, so thats why there is a lot of sick people and pregnant women at her temple.

I understand that scrolling to the bottom for my gibberish is a hassle, but just so you guys know, I wasn't going to even translations down so you'd be just as confused as Naruto is ;)

The whole reason I even write my gibberish instead of the actual words is to help readers get an idea of what Naruto is hearing. (Yes I was going to be cruel, but I didn't)

Just think of the translations at the bottom as bonuses!


Naruto's body ached all over, especially his nose. He stood in a crowded area in front of the temple. His hands were still tied together, but he was no longer attached to Tenten.

Once they entered the grounds of the Temple of Hathor, their captors separated them. The leader had said something to the big orange haired brute before dragging Tenten off towards a group of traveling traders.

Naruto was just assuming that's what they were since they had big cart and people were buzzing to and fro around it. He hoped it wasn't the alternative. For Tenten's sake.

The small town was like a bee hive. Everyone moving at rapid pace about their business. All this movement surrounding the temple in the center. The temple by itself was impressive.

The structure of the building was massive and the paint was still visible though slightly faded. The artwork decorating the pillars was exquisite. Naruto wasn't one for standing in a museum to gawk at paintings, but damn. He was definitely gawking now.

All around him were people talking. Naruto never noticed how long he's been without civilization. He had been camping out at the dig site for two weeks with Sakura and Sasori while the Arabs came back and forth from the village out in the desert for refreshments and supplies.

Sakura.

Naruto's chest tightened at the thought of her being gone. Yes, he had seen her alive and well earlier that day, but the knowledge of not seeing her anymore still affected him. He will have to find a way back to her. Somehow.

Naruto glanced around to check if the two dimwits were still behind him.

Yep. The blond cursed under his breathe. He's best come up with a plan to dodge these idiots in the busy crowd. Suddenly his eyes saw a familiar face in the crowd.

He held his breathe subconsciously. Tenten. Thank god she was safe.

Her face was red and tears were streaming down her leader of the captors pulled her towards him. She desperately tried to keep his fast pace and was stumbling all over. The man then threw her to the ground at Naruto's feet.

"Tenten!" Naruto dropped to his knees to help her.

Since his wrists were tied together, all he could grip was her arm. She was saying something undecipherable in her soobs.

Naruto, unconsciously started to say soothing things to her. Things like how everything will be okay, that he would kill this son of a bitch once he got his hands on him.

As he lifted her off the ground, the moment she got on her knees he was pulled abruptly away by huge arms from behind.

In front of him was a man.

Not the dark haired leader, but another man. The leader stood behind him. Naruto gritted his teeth and glared at this guy. Something was off about him.

It was probably the mask. The mask the man wore was orange that spiraled into the right eye hole. Not that the color was what made the mask nerve-racking. Naruto's favorite color was orange. It was the fact their was only one eye hole on the mask.

This guy was trying to hide his identity like a crook. Which is why Naruto wanted to beat the hell out of him. The blond hated crooks.

"This the one you wanted me to look at?" the masked man asked softly. His voice almost got swallowed by loud crowd they were in.

(1)"yes ,eamil kan yabhath ean khadimat alashqr, 'ana ealaa khata?" The leader asked. The masked man tilted his head as he inspected Naruto's features.

(2)"yes, ela alrghm mn 'annah 'asi' hadhih albadayie." The masked man grabbed Naruto's face with one hand and turned it side to side. The blond threw his head back out of the man's grip and spat on that aggravating mask.

(3)"Wahid kan min alssaeb alhusul ealyha, hu hamasi jiddaan." The leader stated.

"So I see," the masked man said.(4) "llasf, mwkli lays fi almintaqat wa'annah yufaddil lidirasat hdha alband qabl alshshara'. hayth sawf yatimm bayeah?" he asked turning his back on the blond. Asshole. Naruto was about to lunge forward to bud heads with him when he was reminded he was being held.

(5)"Fi dindaratan, baed 'an yakun lah alnnazar fiha min qibal tabib." The leader said and the masked man nodded.

Naruto couldn't take it any more. "I know you're talking about me, asshole!" he shouted.

The masked man slowly turned his attention back to the blond. He leaned in closely to his face.

"First thing you should know is to keep your mouth shut and be obediant or you will be broken." The single onyx eye looked down at Tenten, who was still on her knees sobbing. "Like your friend."

The man took a step back and nodded to the leader. His eye landed back on Naruto. "It would be a shame to see a lively spirit like yours get destroyed, but it would be a show I wouldn't miss."

And with that the masked man disappeared into the crowd. Naruto glared daggers as long as he could before losing the man. The blond shoved himself out of the harsh grip then dropped back to his knees to comfort Tenten.

"I...s-sorry...forgive me...I..t-tried..can't..let them take me...I-I c-can't..p-promised," she sobbed while bobbing her head.

"Tenten, don't be sorry, don't you ever be sorry. It's okay, I'm here, I won't let them take you anywhere," Naruto whispered softly, stroking her back which was awkward due his restraints.

He was pulled away once again only this time he put up a fight. His wounds were starting to bruise, but his fury kept him from feeling the pain.

"Let me go you piece of shit! She needs help!" Naruto shouted as furiously struggled against the brute.

Sokan came in front of him and nailed him in the stomach. For the third time that day, the blond had lost all the air in his lungs. The leader pushed the light grey haired man aside and grabbed his blond hair, forcing his head up.

(6)"Marrat 'ukhraa wamra'at tahsul ealaa alllakamat badalaan mink," he said. He pointed at Tenten and the Sokan kicked her in side, causing her to fall over.

"No!" Naruto shouted, but couldn't move under the restrains of his arms and head. The leader let go of his hair and held up one finger, so the message was clear.

Try to fight one more time and Tenten gets the brute end of it. The leader turned and marched towards the temple. Sokan grabbed Tenten and shoved her to her feet. The brute behind Naruto then pushed him forward and they began their trek to the entrance of the large structure.

As they walked into the temple, Naruto looked up at the pillars to gawk. At the top of each pillar at the entrance had a woman's face. Probably a depiction of Hathor, but still all around impressive that they all looked identical.

All along the walls were people. Sick people.

As they continued farther into the temple Naruto realized most of the people were women. Lots and lots of pregnant women. People were scurrying back and forth between patients.

The leader grabbed one of these people and shouted over the groans, pointing at the blond. The man he grabbed looked at Naruto then nodded at the leader. The man pushed passed them and continued on his with previous mission.

Naruto gazed around the building. Alongside the wall closest to him was an old man. His turban was falling off and he was using the other end to cough into. The hacking sound of the cough and the short intake of breath sent chills down the blond's spine.

The old man was really sick and no one was paying any attention to him. They were all too busy with other patients to notice the old man dying along the wall.

Nausea hit Naruto the moment the old man lowered the scarf from his mouth. The turban was soaked in a dark red substance.

Suddenly the only thing Naruto could see in the temple was death. The whole structure was echoing sounds of groans and wails from the dying.

He needed to get out. He need to get out now.

A loud, throaty scream came from the far end of the temple and Naruto ran.

The captors shouted after him, but he was already weaving through chaos out their reach. He ran to the screams that came from a woman in the corner of the building. Naruto felt like he had to do something to stop all this suffering.

Maybe this woman could put his mind at ease. He saw the woman lying on the ground with her hands around her enlarged stomach. She was having contractions.

Naruto didn't know why he had to throw himself in these type of situations. Always trying to rescue damsels, the latest didn't even want to be saved and he's still trying to her.

"How long have you had your contractions?" Naruto asked calmly, placing his hands on her stomach to feel the baby's position.

The woman's sweat soaked her hair and linen gown. Her eyes were squeezed shut.

"For an hour or so, but they are coming faster now!" she practically screamed as Naruto felt a tension overcome her stomach.

The blond removed his tied hands and lifted her dress to her waist.

"Shit!" Naruto cursed. Her water had broken long before and the baby's head was beginning to show.

"A woman's having her baby, can I get some help over here?!" he shouted as loud as his sore throat would let him over the noise.

The blond had never delivered a baby before and wasn't sure he would be able to with his hands tied.

"I have delivered every baby that's come here and I'm not going to miss one yet!" A woman shouted as she pushed Naruto aside.

The blond looked at the woman in shock. Apparently she knew what she was doing. Her hair was light blond and pulled back into a long ponytail. Her light blue eyes caught his.

"Have you ever delivered a baby before?" She asked spreading the woman's legs into position.

"No, but I took Home Economics in high school, does that count?" Naruto asked wide eyed. The blond woman gave him a confused look, before nodding her head.

"Yes, that will do. Here, give me your hands." Naruto thrusted his hands at her obediently.

She took out a knife from her side pouch and cut the rope.

"Okay, sweetie, I need you to look at me," she said to the woman while rubbing her knee as comfort. The woman was barely able to open her eyes as instructed before another contraction came over.

"On the count of three I need you to push, okay?" The woman nodded frantically. The blond lady looked at Naruto and pointed to her hand.

"Grab her hand please?" Naruto nodded and obliged.

"Okay, one...two, three!" The blond woman shouted and the woman groaned loudly with her face scrunched up as she pushed.

Naruto's hand nearly broke under the pressure the woman squeeze and he nearly screamed himself.

"The head is coming! One more push! Yes that's it!" The blond woman cried in joy.

The pregnant woman screamed at the top of her lungs, but she wasn't the only one. Naruto laughed, forgetting the pain in his hand as the blond lady held up the newborn baby.

"Here," she whispered handing the child to Naruto. Dumbfounded, he took the baby, minding its head. Naruto never held a newborn before. The child's was red and pudgy. Naruto couldn't help but smile at baby.

Never before was he able to be so close to something so innocent and small. People had shunned him away because of his face. His scarred face. Frowning at the memories he looked up to find the blond woman encouraging the woman to push one final time.

The woman heaved once more and a red mushy substance came out. Naruto's face scrunched up in disgust at the sight. That was not something he wanted to see. The blond woman caught his gaze and laughed.

"Never seen a womb before? Ha, rookie," she laughed shaking her head.

She opened her arms and Naruto gave her back the infant. The moment the baby left his hands, Naruto felt a pang in his chest. Like he had just given up his own child.

The blond woman smiled at the child and spoke softly, "You are blessed by the goddess Hathor, may your light shine bright in this world and the next."She gently gave the baby to the new mother.

Afterwards, she placed her hand on the mother's forehead, saying, "Hathor thanks you for giving birth to a splendid son and blesses you with a happy motherhood."

Naruto smiled warmly at the happy mother as she snuggled her baby boy. "My beautiful boy," she whispered, pressing her lips to his forehead. "My baby, Konohamaru."

Once again, another large pair of hands yanked him up off the ground. Jeez, this day was turning into a 'Let's toss Naruto around like a rag doll' day, Naruto thought bitterly.

The blond woman stood up furiously and started yelling at Naruto's captor.

"Just what the hell do you think you're doing?" she yelled yanking Naruto back by his arm. Definitely rag doll day, he thought.

(7)"Thadha alssabi hu mumtalakatuna lays bed musaeid masef!" the Leader shouted, grabbing the blond back again.

(8)"Hasna, "hdha alssabi hu fi hajat 'iilaa bed aleinayat alttabiati, ldhlk 'iidha kunt la tumanue, wa'ana sawf nnafeal eamali alhurrat fi mqabl alhusul ealaa khadamatih!" she snapped at him, taking Naruto back once again and pointed out to the entrance of the temple.

(9)"Alhusul ealaa alqadh wal'asdiqa' alqabih lilkhuruj min hdha almuebid, qabl 'an aistidea' haras. 'Ana sawf nursil lah bialkhuruj eindama aintahayat." She glared at the men until they left, taking Tenten with them.

She smiled at Naruto which he could tell was forced. "Follow me."

The blond woman turned on her heels and began walking to the back entrance of the temple. Naruto hesitated. Should he run? This would be the perfect time to do it, since his captors were now out of the way.

But then Tenten would be on her own. The blond sighed. He couldn't do that to her. Even though he hardly knew her, he couldn't bring himself to leave her. He would never would have left Sakura if he had the choice.

He followed her down through the crowd of sick people lying on the ground. She took a turn and led him down a hall. Suddenly, the blond woman threw him against the wall with a thud.

"Just who the hell are you?" She hissed pressing her forearm against his throat, causing him to choke.

"Obviously you're not from this time period since you claim you went to high school." she snapped.

Ino.

The name came to Naruto in the back of his mind. Was her name Ino? One way to test it, he thought to himself.

"Ino?" he choked out. Her eyes widened and the faint glow around her vanished. Naruto didn't notice it until the moment it was gone. Her entire appearance suddenly changed.

The woman in front of him was no longer wearing a tattered linen dress, but pure white one, decorated with the finest of jewels. On her headdress was the symbol of Ra's eye, similar to the one on Naruto's chest plate.

Her eyes quickly scanned over him.

"Ra?" She asked hesitantly.

Before Naruto could respond she corrected herself. "No, you can't be Ra, you are much too young and stupid."

Naruto opened his mouth to defend himself, but Ino put a finger to his lips and studied his face carefully.

"Naruto?" Her light blue eyes twinkled with hope.

The blond's eyes widened.

How did she-?


A few paragraphs after this, I made Naruto have a mental break down. I hate it, so I'm going to rewrite that bit. Otherwise, I like everything!

Hopefully Kiba will be in the next chapter, but we'll have to see how this plays out.
