Naruto completed another mission with the revived Team 7. But his mind continued to go against him, with Kyuubi still urging to take over. What he had been hiding from his teammates was that he had been trying to keep Kurama chained up, and he had been holding out longer then expected.

With the Nine Tails abusing him mentally, Naruto began to loose control, but kept his cool. Of course his teammates noticed it. They had been watching out for him, and it seems like Naruto was losing too much control where he couldn't even through a shuriken straight. His mind was fracturing slowly.

Slowly but painfully.
