A.N.: Hmm this will be a Narutoxharem fic. I'm open to suggestions, so... give your ideas, and i'll consider it. Read, Review, and Vote please. I don't own Naruto or Samurai Deeper Kyo.
Valley of the End
Nearing the end of Naruto and Sasuke's battle, they were both severely wounded and were forced to use their trump cards; Naruto's Kyuubi and Sasuke's Cursed Seal. Rain poured down as they revealed their secret weapon, the two pre-teens also prepared their strongest move.
"Rasengan!"
"Chidori!"
The two attacks were filled with malevolent, evil chakra and as one, both the black haired Sasuke and the blond Naruto dashed to each other as they thrust their attacks to their opponents.
The two fighters roared in rage as their attacks met and they growled at each other as a brilliant white explosion occurred.

Kabuto rushed towards his target's position, the black haired boy who was to be his master's new vessel was knocked out only several meters away from his opponent.
Seeing no signs of Sasuke waking up, he looped the Uchiha's arm around his shoulder and supported him so he can walk.
Just as the silver haired man walked away from the destroyed battleground, he heard a small voice, 'Not… over… yet. Leave… Sasuke… alone.'
Curious, Kabuto turned around to see a bloody and battered Naruto standing up wobbly all the while clutching his newly healed right chest, where the Uchiha's Chidori struck him.
"Leave Sasuke-sama alone, you say Naruto-kun? I'm sorry that is not going to happen. You see, my orders are to bring Sasuke-sama to Orochimaru-sama and not to return before. If you told me to leave him alone here, who will stop me from taking him away? You are in no shape to stand, let alone fight," the spy explained lengthily.
"I… don't… cough care… even… if… I… die, wheeze I…will…stop…you," the persistent genin said.
"Die? No, dear no. How can you say die so easily? It is not my place to kill you. Yes, it should be Sasuke-sama who should kill you. I will just knock you out a little," he said while wiggling a finger, as if scolding a child.
Then, Kabuto lay Sasuke down and threw two needles at Naruto's direction.

"Kakashi, it's Naruto, I can smell him," Pakkun said.
"Where?" the scarecrow demanded.
"To your left, fifty meters," the pug replied, "There are also other scents. Sasuke… and snakes?"
'Orochimaru? Oh shit! I got to hurry,' Kakashi thought.
In a burst of chakra, the jounin propelled himself off to the direction where his summoned dog told him. And when he saw what had transpired, he wished he hadn't.
There, in a puddle of blood was Naruto, lying down in fetal position and occasionally thrashing around with two needles through his eyes. The blond didn't scream, no, he was too tired to do scream. His throat was dry and he barely had a full breath in him. Thank the Uchiha's Chidori for that.
Kakashi was worried. Naruto, the Kyuubi's Jinchuuriki usually was very quick to heal and never fretted if it was abut wounds. Injuries that would take a normal person days to recover, he only needed several hours. But this really surprised the cycloptic ninja. From a distance, he assessed Naruto's injury and saw that his shirt was torn right in front of where his lung was supposed to be and the flesh was dark pink, like it was still healing from a very fatal wound.
When he arrived at Naruto's side, however, the blond's thrashing had stopped. His mouth stopped trying to scream and his body lay motionless. From his side, Pakkun sniffed the jinchuuriki and said comfortingly, "Don't worry, he's still alive. Just get back quick to the Hokage and I'm sure the kid'll live."
This disheartened the man deeply. Not only had he failed his student to be there for him, he was also part of the cause for the wound that the young genin had received. Nodding somberly, Kakashi picked up his only 'loyal' student and ran back to Konoha.

By the grand gates of Konohagakure, many villagers and shinobi alike were waiting patiently for the 'Sasuke retrieval team' to arrive. One among such was Haruno Sakura. She waited and prayed for her teammates to return safely. Well, actually her teammate, because she never thought of Naruto as her teammate, only a dobe to make sure that there were three of them to make a 3-man team.
"It's Kakashi-san! Kakashi-san has returned!" the gate guard yelled. After the rest of the retrieval team returned half alive or almost dead, the silver haired jounin was the last to leave.
Immediately the villagers who were near the gate swarmed around the massive wooden doors to see their precious Uchiha return.
What they saw however brought displeasure to them. Not only did the legendary Copy-nin didn't bring back the Uchiha, he had the demon brat on his back. Feeling rage well up from their heart, one by one the villagers took stones and began throwing it to the kyuubi-gaki and occasionally his sensei who failed to do anything to get their Uchiha Sasuke-sama back.

Kakashi's treck back to the village wan't eventful, but what lay inside certainly was interesting. Every villager he had seen and known were throwing stones at him and his student on his back.
The stones hit and stung him, but he didn't care. That was nothing compared to Naruto's suffering, which was why he ran as fast as he could to the hospital, but several rocks still managed to hit his student on his back.
After he made way to his the hospital's entrance, he saw something he had expected; Haruno Sakura crying in front of him, asking, "Kakashi-sensei, where is Sasuke-kun?"
The scarecrow in turn didn't answer her question, but said one word with his tired tone, "Move."
Seeing this exhange, the mob stopped for a while after realizing that they hadn't asked him yet where Sasuke was.
"I'll tell you again Sakura, move."
"I won't until you tell me what happened to Sasuke-kun."
"I won't repeat myself. Move," the jounin said icily.
"No! Just…. " the pink haired girl didn't have the chane to finish her sentence as a tanned hand had squeezed her neck on the nerve points and she went out like a light.
"You owe me one, Kakashi," the owner of the hand said as she retracted it and turned away.
"Thank you, Anko," Kakashi muttered.
"Instead of thanking me, wouldn't it be better if you just go to Hokage-sama and ask her to patch Naruto up?" the purple haired woman asked, "She's inside, in case you're wondering."
Once Kakashi left, the yellow eyed woman thought to herself, 'What am I going to do with this useless kunoichi?'

Inside the Hospital
"Tsunade-sama, it's urgent, Naruto-kun's hurt badly!" Shizune yelled frantically.
The blond woman snapped her head towards her apprentice and yelled in an authoritive yet concerned tone, "Take me to him!"

Tsunade ran to the hospital ward where Naruto was put. She brushed past everyone and didn't bother to respond to their greetings. She only had her little brother in her mind.
Outside the room was Kakashi who was leaning against a wall, trying to read his porn, but obviously couldn't as the thoughts of his blond student kept haunting him.
"Hokage-sama," he greeted.
"How is Naruto?" the pig tailed woman asked.
"For the moment, he's stabilized. I used a healing jutsu on him, but I don't think it was enough to heal the wounds on his eyes."
"What happened?"
"Kabuto stabbed them with needles. Now, there's only little to no chance at him seeing again."
Tsunade decided that it was enough and busted the door to the genin's room. True to scarecrow's word, the boy was stable, for now. Taking no chances, she ran a full body diagnostics on him and found that Kakashi's bad news was true.
Naruto would never see again.

The buxom woman walked out of the hospital ward with a somber expression on her face. Her eyes were wide and blank, tears were about to fall from them as she closed the door to the still sleeping boy's room.
"What's the matter, Tsunade?" Jiraiya asked. For once, the lecherous man sounded sincere.
Tsunade tried to hold back her tears and said, "It's Naruto. He… he won't be able to see ever again."
Jiraiya was shocked to hear this and he grabbed the Godaime Hokage's shoulder and shook them rather roughly, "What do you mean 'he won't be able to see ever again'? You should be able to take care of that, right?"
"He's blind, Jiraiya! Blind because that fucking snake's bitch threw needles to his eyes. They pierced through his pupil and were lodged halfway through! And do you think curing eyes is simple?" she roared.
"You don't know how helpless I felt. The needles were corrosive and had already burned his eye fluid," she said as she openly cried.
The toad hermit felt guilty. He had just made the woman he cared about cry. 'Way to go, jackass,' he said to himself. "Now, calm down, Tsunade-chan, there must be a way to get it fixed, right?"
"No, it's too late. The retinas are burnt badly. No one wants to donate an eye or two to him, and we can't even try to remove them. Too much of his blood will be lost and noone's blood can be accepted in his system. His career as a ninja is as good as over."
The pervert thought about this situation and said, "Well there might be a way…"
"What? Tell me!"
"Not now, it'll just be easier if I explain it to Naruto at the same time, so I won't have to say it twice."
Tsunade sighed dejectedly and returned to her other duties, waiting for the time when her blond friend would wake up.

Three days later, Hokage's office
Tsunade was so deep in her thoughts and her work that she didn't notice a knocking on her door. Apparently, when she did notice, the knocker had had enough and decided to just barge in to the buxom woman's office.
"Tsunade-sama, he's awake," Shizune said excitedly.
"Who?" said woman replied in an irritated voice.
"Naruto-kun desu, he's woken up."
"Take me to him!" the slug summoner yelled as she took her coat and dabbed it on.

Naruto's ward
Tsunade saw her surrogate brother stirring a little and asked worriedly, "Naruto, are you okay?"
"Baa-chan? Yeah, I'm okay if it wasn't foor these wrappings around my head so I can see," the boy said as he sat up.
"Okay then," the Godaime Hokage then began to slowly take off the wrappings and for the first time after several days, Naruto would see again. At least, that was what he thought.
"Ne, Baa-chan, is there still something covering my eyes? Cause I still can't see a thing."
"No, there's nothing on your eyes now. You… Naruto, you're blind," she said. She was devastated to break this news to him. How could she just say one thing that's going to take away all his dreams and his will to live?
"You're joking, right?"
"No," she sobbed. "Try touching your face if you don't believe me," she said in a sad voice.
The boy did so and found to his horror that the woman wasn't lying. Suddenly, he laughed, softly at first then it continued to go louder and louder until it was a full blown laughter.
"Naruto-kun?" Shizune asked.
Said person ignored her coment and yelled as he stared to the sky, "Why do you hate me so much? You put that bastard furball in me, took away my childhood, and now my only dream and the thing I live for? Why don't you just take my life too, end it all, huh?"
He continued laughing for a good three minutes before Shizune who had enough wrapped him in a hug. Naruto was surprised by this gesture and wept as he returned the gesture. "Why? Why must it be me? Why not someone else who deserves it better? What wrong have I done so I deserve this?" Those questions were never answered as he cried in his 'sister's arm. Not one of them realized that the tears he shed were blood until Naruto realized that strong scent of blood.
"Sorry, Shizune-neechan. I got blood on your shirt."
Before the woman could say anything, the legendary pervert walked in with sad smile on his face, "I hope I didn't interrupt anything?"
"Oh, nothing, Jiraiya-sama," Shizune said politely.
"I see, well I'm here with news for all of you," he said, "There is a way to let him fight again…"
"What is it? Tell me! I'd do anything if it means I can continue being a ninja!" the ramen lover demanded.
"Hold on, kid. I didn't say anything about you still being a ninja, did I?" Jiraiya said.
"What? But you said…" Tsunade joined in.
"I said there's a way to let him fight, not continue being a ninja."
"Then, what is it?"
"There's an ancient clan to the east who are very powerful and it's said they have two blind fighters and each of them can take out three kage's and an army of jounin alone," Jiraiya said, "Both of them are samurai's and I'm sure they can teach him a thing or two. He will have to quit being a ninja if he still wishes to fight Orochimaru and Akatsuki. So, Naruto, you must learn to be a samurai from zero.
"I'll give you a day to think about it."
"No need," Naruto said firmly, "I'll go."
"So soon to make a decision?" Jiraiya asked.
Naruto ignored the screams of outbursts from the other occupants of the room and said, "Baa-chan, Shizune-neechan, I want to do this. I want to be able to fight. I want to destroy Orochimaru and Akatsuki. But most important of all, I don't want to be burden. Please, let me be selfish this one time."
"Fine," Tsunade said dejectedly, "Just remember you always have a home to return to."
"And don't forget there will always be someone waiting for you to come home," Shizune chimed in.
"Thanks," Naruto said, his eyes unblinking and weeping tears of blood.

Outside the ward
One Hyuuga Hinata was spying through the door, reading the lips of everyone who spoke. She was sad that her Naruto-kun was blind. She vowed she would take good care of him, but the dark haired girl didn't know that he would be leaving on the day he was signed out.
The shy girl was so deep in her thoughts of hand feeding Naruto and other romantic stuff (insert a loud belch and a stuck out tongue here) she would do to him that she didn't notice her sensei approaching.
"Hinata? What are you doing?" Kurenai asked.
"Uh? Um… well… uh… Nothing. I-I wa-wasn't d-doing a-anything," the shy girl sputtered out, "I.. I got to go now, Kurenai-sensei, good bye."
The red eyed woman looked at her student running to get away from the ward and shook her head. 'If she can't even say anything to him, how will he acknowledge her? Hinata, you have to be brave to earn anything.'

Three days later
As the agreement states, Naruto left after he was given a clean bill of health; which was three days afterwards. The now blind boy was given a piggyback ride by a toad Jiraiya summoned, heading to the east.
After a long time saying goodbyes and bidding farewells, finally the two set out to the east, to find the strongest clan in the world, the Mibu clan.
Vote: How many people should i put in Naruto's harem? 4? 5? 6?
Do you want me to elaborate on Naruto's training or just skip to the time when he's back?
How long do you want until Naruto's back? 4 years or 6 years? (4 means he'll learn less moves from the Mibu clan, 6 means he'll master master many moves)
