Disclaimer: I own none of the characters of Naruto, much as I wish I did. Well, wishing won't make it happen. Oh, this is gonna be my first attempt at romance and it'll be a NaruSaku fic so if you don't like, stay far away! And now, the story...

Kyubi Unleashed

By DigiScanner-Shonen

Chapter 1: Disguises and Admittances

It was peaceful in Konohagakure that day. The sun was shining, the sky was a brilliant blue, and there was happiness throughout the village; however, for Uzumaki Naruto, the infamous ninja with the demon fox within, it was too boring. Sure, he liked the peace, but he wanted something to liven things up.

Maybe one of his pranks would do it. Nah, he'd given up pranks since he became a shinobi. Going to peek at the ladies bathhouse? Uh-uh, he'd done that too many times already. What could he do to make things less boring?

Then he remembered Haruno Sakura, his crush, and how she was infatuated with Uchiha Sasuke, his rival. He remembered how back on the first day of him becoming a genin shinobi, he posed as Sasuke to get close to Sakura and almost kissed her. Maybe her opinion of him had changed and this time he'd actually kiss her. He smiled mischievously as he went to find Sasuke to take his shape again.

*~*

Uchiha Sasuke was training again, as usual, at his home at the edge of Konohagakure, to become better than his brother, Itachi. Sasuke was still trying to come to terms with Naruto. He was getting stronger and stronger all the time. Would he eventually surpass Sasuke and Itachi would go after him instead?

That was Sasuke's greatest fear. To have someone surpass him and have Itachi deem as a worthy opponent. That's why he sold his soul to Orochimaru when he gave him the Curse Seal.

But still, he did kind of admire how far Naruto had come since the days of the Academy. He remembered how Naruto thought he was dead during the fight with Haku in the Land of the Waves and how he went haywire trying to avenge Sasuke. All that power. Has he had it all this time? Sasuke wondered, Where did he get it? And how long did he have it?

Before Sasuke could train and inquire further, a knock came at his door. Perfect, he thought, probably another girl trying to get him to go out with her.

Sasuke reluctantly opened the door and was met with the smiling face of Uzumaki Naruto.

"Hey, Sasuke," Naruto said, "Mind if I come in for a minute?"

"Yes," he answered coolly, "I'm training and I don't want any visitors now. Go away, dunce."

As Sasuke closed the door, Naruto's foot blocked the door, "I'm not gonna take no for an answer that easily!" Naruto burst in and activated his Kage Bushin no Jutsu.

Sasuke had been through this before, no way he was going to fall for it again. As the clones attacked, Sasuke dodged and fought back.

The original Naruto was going for a shuriken, when Sasuke spotted this and hit him. He actually hit the wall as Naruto and all his clones were gathered behind him. Sasuke was ready for whatever they had planned and grabbed a kunai just in case.

What he wasn't ready for was Naruto did just then and there. He and his doppelgangers used their Sexy no Jutsu on Sasuke and in a moment, Narutos disguised as sexy women surrounded Sasuke.

Is this one of his special techniques, Sasuke wondered as he suffered a nosebleed. He tried to look away, but there was another Naruto girl on every side of him. His nosebleed turned into a fierce river and Sasuke began to faint.

"Ha! Couldn't beat my Sexy no Jutsu, couldja Sasuke?" he could hear Naruto say as he tied and gagged him like he did all those months ago. He vaguely saw a double of Sasuke and what was his voice saying, "Don't worry, it's only for an hour. I won't do much with your body, man."

With that, Naruto/Sasuke walked out the door, leaving the real Sasuke trying to come to terms with what just happened. His downfall was Naruto posing as a naked woman? He'd never live this down for the rest of his life! He quickly untied himself and decided to follow Naruto/Sasuke to see what he was going to do.

*~*

Haruno Sakura was just relaxing at home, enjoying her bedroom, thinking of new ways to snatch her crush, Sasuke-kun. But all of her plans wouldn't work. She was just about to forget all about them and just have a quick nap when the doorbell rang.

"I'll get it!" Sakura told her parents as she headed down the stairs and opened the door. She was met with a sight she only dreamed of.

"Sasuke-kun!" she cried. He was actually here at her door! Just to see her! She was so happy she was going to faint. But she recomposed herself and asked him to come in.

"Nice place you have, Sakura," Sasuke told her, "Can we go up to your room for a few minutes?"

Sakura was going to go mad with happiness. The inner was practically partying 'til she dropped. Sakura happily led Sasuke up to her room and closed the door. Will Ino be jealous, she thought happily.

"So, Sakura," Sasuke said as he sat on her bed, "I've been thinking...about Naruto."

Hmph, she thought, always Naruto with this guy. Maybe she could get him to change the subject.

"He's not such a bad guy, you know," Sasuke said, "I think he actually cares for you."

"Him? Hah!" She laughed, "He doesn't care about me! He only wants to annoy me for the rest of his days. Stupid Naruto. He's the thorn in my side, Sasuke-kun, and you're the antidote. Only when I'm with you can I cope with him, Mr. Ramen-obsession."

"Maybe he is stupid," Sasuke shrugged, "but I personally think he's quite handsome, and intelligent. He's already on the way to being as strong as me."

"Oh, no one could be strong as you, Sasuke-kun," she smiled as she took a spot beside him, "or as handsome. You were always like that, even back at the Academy. Naruto's just childish and immature."

"But, Naruto, don't you even think slightly better of him than you did before we graduated?" Sasuke asked her, "Even the slightest?"

"All right, a bit," she admitted, "He's gotten pretty powerful over these last months, but some of his old habits remain, like his childish pranks and his annoyance to me. That's why I like you better, Sasuke-kun. You're not him."

"Fine," he said as he got up, "Now I know how you really feel about me."

"What?" Sakura asked. She didn't say all those things about Sasuke, it was Naruto. She followed him down the stairs and to the door.

"I didn't say all those things about you, Sasuke-kun, it was the blonde- headed pain in the neck," she tried to persuade him.

Sasuke was now in the street and Sakura was following him. She couldn't understand where he was going. She thought things were going well.

"The blonde-headed pain in the neck," Sasuke began, as he dropped the illusion, "was me."

"Naruto!"

"Thanks for the admittance of the feelings, Sakura," he said as he walked off, "Wouldn't want to BOTHER you again."

As Naruto walked off, Sakura tried to take in all that happened. Naruto, disguised as Sasuke, was let into her house to find out about her true feelings for him. She said all that bad stuff about him because she thought he was Sasuke-kun.

Naruto could be a pain in the neck at times, but he was also very brave and powerful as well. She was only trying to impress Sasuke-kun with their equal loathing of Naruto. She must've really hurt Naruto with what she said. She really felt bad now.

And the most painful thing was that he didn't call her "Sakura-chan". Just plain old Sakura.

She went back to her room and instead of trying to think of ways to snatch Sasuke, she thought of ways trying to apologise to Naruto.

*~*

Sasuke was watching all this from a nearby tree. While he didn't like peeping into Sakura's room, it helped to find out what Naruto was doing with his image.

He just wanted to find out about Sakura's feelings for him? Why do that, dunce? Sasuke wondered.

He watched as Naruto trudged silently toward the ramen bar he loved to eat at and decided to give Naruto a piece of his mind.

Naruto was just sitting down and ordering when Sasuke came.

"Is that why you took my image, Naruto?" Sasuke asked, "Just to get Sakura's opinion of you?"

"Hey!" Naruto fought back, "I really needed to know, all right? It was too quiet and I decided to use the peace to find out what she thought of me."

"But you used MY appearance."

"Well, duh! Every girl in the village has a thing for you and I figured you'd be the best choice to get to Sakura's inner feelings."

"I never should have opened the door," Sasuke muttered, "And that stupid technique you used! What was it?"

"That's my Sexy no Jutsu! How'd you like it, Sasuke the nosebleeder?"

"Well, actually it was...NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS!!"

"So, you DID like it!"

"Shut up, dunce! Just so you know, I won't fall for it again. I never fall for the same trick twice."

"Sure," Naruto rubbed his hands in anticipation as his bowl of ramen came before him, "I'm sorry I took your image again but I really needed it. I won't take it again."

"You better not or I'll personally make sure you never get a bowl of ramen ever again," Sasuke said as he left the restaurant.

That should put him straight a bit, Sasuke thought, now back to training. He'd really have to push himself if Naruto could do something worse than that. He couldn't believe he fell for such an attack.

And the scariest part was that Sasuke thought Naruto as a naked woman was attractive.

*~*

Even ramen couldn't help Naruto feel better about Sakura's feelings. He gulped down the rest of the ramen and decided to go back home and do something to take his mind off of her.

As he walked home, he felt something within him stir. Kyubi, he thought, remembering the nine-tailed fox spirit within him. He quieted his mind and listened to the demon fox within him.

It sounded troubled. And angry. Like something bad was coming. Maybe it's just because I ate the ramen too fast, Naruto thought, I always do that with ramen.

Naruto continued on his way home, but couldn't forget Kyubi's stirrings. Whatever it was that Kyubi agitated over, if it made Kyubi that mad, it must be something really bad.

And it was coming soon.

TO BE CONTINUED!
