Naruto's P.O.V

"No, no! Fuc-!!!"

A male's frightful screams died down once I delivered one final blow to his head, giving it a heavy stomp with my mighty foot which successfully silenced him.

Blood as well as his brain splattered everywhere from my violent action, coating my already exhilarated body with more humanly fluids.

I smirked darkly down at the gruesome sight before me, my tongue slowly moving to give my lips a lick, cleaning the blood that coated them.

Silence only erupted around me as I stood alone, in a large truck which was slowly working itself off of the road, my red glowing eyes taking in all the dead humans around me.

Most, were ripped completely to shreds to the point only body parts littered the place, no one truly recognizable anymore. But only one person was left fully intact which I did, purposely.

A woman..

She was the one who was previously driving this oversized piece of shit but now.. I chuckled, taking in her bloody form.

She laid lifelessly on the steering wheel, a large bloody but hollow hole seen on her backside, her heart nowhere to be found. I groaned in nothing but delight as I just took in my surroundings a bit more.

Blood dropped ferociously off of my person to land straight down on the carpet below me, slowly causing a large bloody puddle to form. The clothes in which I wore were no longer presentable because of all the dark red liquid that stained it, my entire body covered completely with the demon hunters bodily fluids. But..

I could care less about that..

My mind was relieved, thrilled that everyone, every single one of those hunter bastards that decided to terrorize me, Kurama and my poor Hinata were all dead and gone. All of their personalized trucks were no longer on the road for there was no one controlling the vehicles.

So, each truck was found on the side of the road in ruins, along with the many people I tore apart left inside.

I blew out a deep breath, throwing my head back in slight exhaustion. "Fuck.." I whispered, my body still a little too stimulated for my liking. But that part I only ignored and instead I placed my mind on something else. My eyes widened and I snapped my head back up, gulping..

Hinata!

Just by the thought of her, worry as well as deep concern started to attack my body, my crimson eyes instantly flashing to a blue. I cursed, my eyes landing on the exit..

I gotta get out of here..

I've stayed here too long..

I have to make sure Hinata's safe.

So with that, it didn't take me long for my blue eyes to land on an escape hatch located at the very back of the large truck, my feet quickly taking me there.

By now, the car was slowly tipping over which means it was gonna fall and crash any minute now. I narrowed my eyes...

Oh no it won't...

So by pulling one hand up, shooting the extended but bloody limb towards the door, I gave one of my fingers a spin, summoning a bit of my demon magic.

My eyes instantly reverted back to their monstrous red and a pocket size of fog like particles began to travel from my person straight towards the door, seeping deep inside.

The dark magic began to act as a parasite, filling up the door, eating it from the inside until it suddenly burst wide open, falling completely out of the vehicle to never be seen again. But I was now..

Free..

I was allowed access to the outside world, my slate wiped clean...

There's no more of those pesky demon hunters left..

No one to bother me..

I licked my lips in pure joy at that but soon averted my attention back on the exit in front of me in which I didn't hesitate to jump out of.

With a look of determination, I hurriedly picked up my strong legs to quickly sprint down the long aisle of the vehicle to jump straight out of the place, soon landing on the concrete ground with a thud.

My body landed flawlessly on its feet, atop of the road as the heavy metal vehicle I was just in continued to tip over until..

Boom!

An amused smirk played across my lips as I watched as a large explosion was made, red hot fire bursting out of the wrecked object to instead fly straight into the air, burning all the hunter bodies in the process. I snickered upon such a wonderful sight but then turned my attention elsewhere.

I think it's time to reunite with, little one..

I know she's probably scared out of her mind so..

She'll need my assistance..

All of this dawdling is killing me...

I can't stay here any longer...

So with a roll of my eyes, I began to trot my way forward, passing all of the wrecked vehicles in the process. My clothes were still dripping blood as I moved along swiftly, checking my surroundings for someone, anyone.

But weirdly enough, no one was in sight. Not a single car drove past my demonic being as I walked freely on the highway, not another living breathing soul located anywhere.

But regardless of the silence my highly keen ears picked up, my blue eyes continued to shoot around everywhere, now on the lookout for any sign of my loved ones. But..

Nope..

I smiled at that, my chest falling in nothing but relief.

Goo-

But my happy, pleased thoughts instantly came to a complete stop once my blue orbs, unfortunately, landed on a single grey car a few ways ahead of me.

A car that looked highly familiar..

But that, wasn't what made my heart pump faster, my skin growing extremely hot to the touch.

No...

What shocked me the most was that the car that I drove, that was mine, that held my loved ones in previously was lying completely destroyed on the side of the road, in a..

Ditch...

My breathing grew unsteady in no time and I quickly went to vanish myself over to the flipped over vehicle, many troubling thoughts running through my head now.

A look of devastation was held on my bloody, tan face as I landed beside the wrecked vehicle on my knees, my red glowing eyes shooting around in worry.

Oh fuck no!

The car was completely ruined, beyond repair, the hood caving in entirely. No human could have survived this type of crash and yet.. I looked down at my perfectly shaped body, not a scratch found anywhere.. I paused, shifting my heavy gaze to the ground below me..

What the fuck is going on?

I know, Hinata and Kurama were inside the vehicle because that's where I left them. I told them to drive as far out as possible until this all blows over. But now I see, they didn't make it out and yet..

I'm not dead..

I'm not hurt..

Which means Hinata isn't hurt. She's perfectly fine.

My little one's.. fine..

At that moment, I couldn't stop the relief that flooded into my soul as I tried to piece everything together, my mind a total jumbled up mess. I was growing angry, confused, concerned...

Unstable...

It just seems events were only repeating themselves. The tortue, the suffering, the anguish, the agony I feel was all so familiar..

It was the same as when my entire family was sealed away..

Right before my eyes I was stripped of the one thing I loved and I couldn't do a thing about it..

That's, happening again...

Hinata and Kurama are all I have left. They are the only ones that my heart is willing to open up for. They are the ones that I fight for, the ones I protect. They, are my new..

Family..

But now.. The same bastards are trying to take them away from me. They're trying to take away my joy, my happiness, my peace... My eyes bled red and an uncontrollable pit of rage started to flood my being..

Those damn demon hunters...

When this is all over..

Those people..

The name they so call go by will cease, to exist.

I'll make sure of it...

I let out a loud and built up growl, one that came from the soul. My fists were clenched tightly, so tightly I felt my sharp nails dig into my tan skin but...

I didn't feel a thing..

My emotions were running wild as I continued to inspect the damaged vehicle in front of me, my red glowing eyes taking in the backseat where the top part of the car had seeped down inside, crushing it.

Everything, was smashed and broken. The seats, the windows..

My eyes widened and I quickly shot up, hopping back onto my feet. My eyes were now focused on the window located by the driver's side, a large hole found inside it. One that looked to be able to fit a human out of.

I tilted my head, moving my hand over to grab something from the shattered window, unpeeling it from the sharp glass.

I hummed, a smirk forming on my face as I held up a large orange feather, my red eyes taking in the familiar object.

Once again, the fresh feeling of relief flooded over me and my smirk widened into a large hopeful smile, my fingers gripping the bird feather tightly.

One person, and one person only was on my mind and that was...

Kurama...

Kurama's P.O.V

Kurama...

My crippled body jolted up sharply from the sound of Naruto's voice, a booming pain constantly pounding in my head. Actually, everything on my body hurt like hell as I laid helplessly on green grass, in the middle of nowhere. Now..

All alone..

I cursed, throwing my head back in defeat...

Hinata's gone..

I failed. And now, I will have to feel the wrath of the all powerful Naruto. I frowned, sighing..

I deserve it..

I deserve everything that's to come..

Even though those demon hunters fought hard, I should've fought harder. Instead, I was only focused on getting away back there. I only wanted to get Hinata somewhere safe.
But, if only I fought back I could've..

"Kurama! Holy fucking hell! What happened! Talk to me!"

The same voice as the one I heard in my head yelled constantly over top of my weak and battered body, blood found everywhere on my person. The claw contraption which was forced into my body earlier now, sat shattered by my feet, no longer holding me down.

But that, was the least of my worries.

The voice that was heard from above me was loud, a hint of worry and anger found inside it.

My body was being shaken like a rag doll which made me groan, the action successfully bringing me back to the land of living. I groaned once more, opening my brown eyes to be met with a bloody Naruto, his red eyes narrowed as he shook me.

His face was completely covered in blood which made him look absolutely horrifying but seeing him here..

Alive...

Perfectly intact...

Means..

I gasped lightly, completely relieved. Not only did Naruto manage to kill all of those hunter's back there, this must mean Hinata's fine too.

She's still alive..

Those hunter bastards are only holding her hostage..

But instantly after I thought that, it was interrupted, bringing me back to reality.

"Kurama! Talk, damn it! Where's Hinata! Where is she?"

The voice before me was slowly growing louder and louder, now filled with panic which caused me to gasp, my eyes blinking rapidly to try and focus on my surroundings. Because all I saw, was...

Blurriness...

The bullets that the hunters previously shot at me had completely impaired my senses, making it hard for me to do, anything. But I did manage to look up at Naruto, squinting my eyes while doing so..

"N-Naruto? Is that, you?" I whispered out groggily, the world still a little fuzzy. But by the sound of my voice, it made the blonde demon before me gasp in pure relief, his hands shooting out to grab a hold of my shoulders.

With them, he lifted my body up slowly so I was in a sitting position, his head continuing to look around, in a constant search, for Hinata. But.. I gritted my teeth, whimpering lowly which caught Naruto's attention.

He turned back to me with hurt eyes, one of his hands gripping my shoulder tightly. He growled, baring his teeth. "Kurama.. Where's Hinata?" He asked sternly, desperate for the answer. An answer I wish I wouldn't have to tell him. But..

I have to...

In order for us to save her, Naruto needs to know...

He's going to have to cope with it..

So, I looked back up at him with squinted eyes, one of my bloody hands gripping my chest as a way to help endure the pain but it wasn't working.

Not even in the slightest..

My body was weak, incredibly weak. The bullets that were shot at me previously were still embedded deep within my demonic being, restricting me..

Holding me back..

But it didn't hold me back from telling Naruto the truth, my hand shakily reaching out to grab his own shoulder.

I frowned, watching as his face grew more and more hostile, as if he knew what I was about to say.

I whimpered, once more. "Naruto.. Sh-She's gone.. They.. took her." I whispered out slowly, watching the angry demon before me who instantly switched his eyes to the ground below him, a blank look falling over his face.

I couldn't tell what he was thinking at the moment but as time passed by, his emotions started to become more, understandable.

Heavily, his body heaved, his eyes slowly growing darker and darker as he just took a moment to take in my previous words, his skin growing hotter, boiling hot which made me gulp.

Shit.. He's gonna explode.

So with that thought in mind, I quickly shook my head at him, trying to distract him from the many crazy thoughts he was conjuring up in that head of his, my hand gripping his shoulder tighter.

"Naruto.. Listen you're going to have to remain calm. If you want to save her you-"

But before I could say another word, I was hit with an agonizing, rage filled punch to my cheek which sent me tumbling back, damaging my already tattered body even more.

I whined from the excruciating pain of it, my head pounding worse than before as well as my body which was screaming out for help.

Now, just from Naruto's mighty punch, my body was positioned on its stomach, several feet away from him, my head slowly working itself up to be met with the blonde demon from afar.

My brown eyes met his form who was standing up now, a strong look of sorrow found in his eyes, his heart completely broken by the outcome of things.

He shook his head at me, stomping his way over. "How, could you, Kurama? How could you let those bastards, take Hinata!" He roared out loudly, the mighty sound of it stretching for miles, frightening birds in the process.

My body trembled as I watched the unstable demon slowly make his way up to my fallen form, emotions steady attacking him. But I quickly shook my head once more, pulling up one hand to try to calm him down.

"Listen Naruto. I-I-I tried. We were ambushed. There were just too many of them-"

"Bullshit!"

The demon roared once again, his voice dropping in levels, an octave he only uses in hell, not here on earth. He, was..

Angry..

Outraged..

Vengeful..

And down right..

Hurt..

There was nothing I could say to him that'll ease the pain that he feels.. He never listens to me anyway only, to..

Hinata..

She was the one that could tame him. She was the one that made him, better.

She had the ability to talk him out of the many, many dark actions he wanted to carry out.

She was able to give him the love that he yearned for. She accepted him for who he is which caused Naruto to love her unconditionally. He loved her with his very soul and now..

She's gone and it's all my fault..

My words won't do a thing in this situation. But..

That doesn't mean I won't try.

So weakly, I pulled both of my hands down to place them flat on the ground below me, soon pushing my body up to a crotch position, my knees digging harshly into the grass below me.

By now, Naruto had made it directly in front of me, revealing everything.

His eyes, were filled with hostility and pain as he stared down at me, bypassing how broken I looked, ignoring that I was also his comrade.

I shook my head for the thousandth time it seemed, trying to reason with him. "Please Naruto. You have to- Ugh!"

My voice instantly died down when a large hand wrapped itself around my neck like a vise, squeezing it tremendously which cut my oxygen off completely.

The demon before me seethed greatly as he stared down at me, absolutely ignoring my words of reason.

"Shut, up! I'm only hearing excuses from you and that, will not save you now!"

He yelled, his eyes flashing with pure evil, my eyes widening gravely at such a sight. But, I only ignored his words. He's simply filled with rage, completely hurt that his favorite human was gone and in the hands of the enemy.

He isn't himself..

He's acting out because of his emotions. He doesn't mean to hurt me..

I've seen him like this many times before..

So, I did what I always did.. I opened my heart and just embraced my friend, my hand reaching out to grab on tightly to Naruto's shirt, gripping it tight just as he was doing to my throat.

Then, I tilted my head up at him, looking directly into Naruto's eyes to finally tell him, everything.

Without the excuses this time..

I whimpered once more, fighting against the tight hand that was wrapped around my throat. "Naruto.. I know, that you're h-hurt.. I am, t-too.. Those demon hunters knew.. our weaknesses and picked the right time to attack.. I-It was out, of our c-control. They wanted Hinata i-in order to get to you... They're going to k-kill her if we don't.. act fast. Y-You just, have to keep a cool head, Kit. Hinata n-needs you.. H-Hinata is looking for you, t-to save her. She loves you and would not want you to succumb to this monstrous side of yourself. Instead, u-use the p-pain, the sadness you feel as a power source. Only then, we can kill those h-hunters once and for all and rescue Hinata.." I explained profoundly with several nods, croaks found in my voice but Naruto heard the message all the same. And by it, his eyes shot wide open, the realization of my words hitting him strongly.

My hooded brown eyes stared weakly up at the sorrowful creature before me, his tan face scrunching up greatly over time.

Soon, however, the large hand that was gripping my throat loosened its grip till it was no more, allowing me access to the air around me. And I showered it with love the first chance I got.

With several coughs, I fell over, almost lifelessly onto the soft grass below me with a thud, my body holding absolutely no energy left.

I was just too damn weak.. And Naruto, was slowly losing a part of himself.

His body stood frozen, in his spot as he tried to piece together what was said to him, tears slowly forming in his blue orbs.

He stifled a hurt filled sob and soon, just like I did, crashed down onto the ground in a broken fit, a loud broken yell escaping his mouth in the process.

His sharp claws quickly forced their way up to grab at his blonde head harshly, his entire body trembling massively.

His yells were constant, filled with devastation, my eyes widening as they just stared back at him.

Over and over, he let out horrifying screams and yells, constantly clawing at his hair in a crazed fit, the noise heard far and wide..

It was just that loud..

But I did nothing but watch him. I said nothing, did nothing to comfort him, only looked.

I had no energy left to do anything anyway...

And besides, he needs to pour out everything that's hurting him, all the emotions that he's battling with. It's not good to suppress them, it'll only turn into darkness..

It'll only get, in the way of our mission..

So I laid still on the soft green grass as the blonde demon continued to scream, weeping about his little one, his hands pounding rapidly against his head.

"Fuck! Fuck! Oh Hinata! I'm so sorry to bring you into this! I never meant to do any of this to you!

The love he had for her was incredibly strong, my keen ears steady taking in the many promises, apologies, threats, and down right pleads Naruto shouted out on Hinata's behalf.

Much time passed and this continued to go on but I still, said nothing.

My body was slowly healing but it couldn't heal much, not with the bullets still rammed inside of my body. So constantly I was reminded that I was indeed, injured. I was restricted from doing well... anything.

I frowned, soon pushing my shaky body back up to a sitting position, luckily catching Naruto's attention.

His cries, screams and shouts of pain slowly died away and now he was sitting dully in his spot, his eyes now a glowing red.

At the moment, he was just staring blankly down at the grass before him as his thoughts constantly attacked him, robbing him of his strength, his drive to go on..

He was truly, hurt..

A part of me didn't even want to tell him what happened or what those hunters told me previously. All I wanted was to give Naruto this time to mourn, to let the negative emotions he feels go... So then, he can get his strength back up.

Only then, we can get Hinata.

But suddenly Naruto let out a harsh sniff and looked up at me, his eyes void of playfulness or anything for the matter. They were dull, as if there was no life left in his body, his chest heaving tremoundsly.

He then, clenched his fists, narrowing his menacing red eyes. "Kurama.. Tell me, what happened. I need, to know." He demanded harshly, his voice severely rough and scratchy but that didn't stop him from asking the questions he wanted answered.

I lowered my head at that particular question he asked, which was one I truly didn't want to reveal to him. But...

It's what's best...

So I quickly opened my mouth to let him know how events led up to, present time..

But I cleared my throat before. "W-Well.. Our plan was working flawlessly at first. You left to deal with the hunters and I was in the process of driving away with Hinata, to get her someplace safe. But we couldn't get far because we, were stopped, ambushed, I should say. I don't know how they knew our plan but there were more of those bastards ahead. They rammed us, purposely driving their vehicle into us so I, had to hurry and do something. I shapeshifted and grabbed Hinata as fast as I could, turning into a bird in the process. And then, I flew like hell. I uh.. then made up a new plan. I was going to try to fly away, to escape but those hunters shot me down. With five, bullets. I-I'm lucky to be alive." I started, soon trailing off for this was the worst part of it all.

My eyes were now elsewhere as the dull demon before me just stared at me, blankly taking in the events that went on a while ago.

But he tilted his head by my silence, soon moving to look away from me too. He sighed, lowering his head so his blonde bangs could cover his animalistic eyes.

"That's how, Hinata was kidnapped, correct? They injured you and then, took the opportunity to.." He paused, gritting his teeth. His body was getting right back heated as his mind slowly pieced together everything, making its way to an even bigger puzzle.

Yes, he's found out what's happened but now we have to find out a way to solve it.

Naruto growled, soon turning to me again who weakly stared up at him, his features instantly softening at the rough sight of me.

He sighed once more, soon moving over to rub my shoulder, giving me a small smile. "I'm sorry, buddy. I shouldn't have blamed you for this. Like you said.. It was out of your control. Those bastards tricked me yet again.. But they've forgotten one thing.." He informed with an apology, soon moving away to instead cross his legs together on the soft grass, my eyes blinking in confusion at him.

But I deeply like the way he apologized, it showed that he indeed didn't mean what he said and did and that made me feel much better. But what he was doing now, baffled me.

But, I said nothing, for I didn't want to risk losing any more energy. So my brown eyes just stared back at the blonde demon before me who was now closing his eyes, my mind then clicking as to what he was doing...

He's gonna enter into Hinata's mind..

Everything was quiet as I just stared intently back at Naruto, watching as his face slowly grew emotionless, his body stiff in his crossed position.

His covered eyes flickered back and forth under the lids as if he was trying to look around. But, after a few seconds of doing that, his face suddenly scrunched up, a heavy gulp slipping down his throat.

His ears twitched as he listened into his surroundings, trying to pinpoint where Hinata was. But he was taking longer than usual... I tilted my head..

Why can't he...

I paused, my mind thinking back to earlier events when those demon hunters were here, before me and Hinata. I remember, when I was being tortured, I saw those bastards tie Hinata up. I also saw that they..

My eyes widened and I snapped my attention back on Naruto who still held the same defeated look, a gulp slipping down my throat.

Hinata's eyes, are covered.

They know. Those hunters know that Naruto is connected to Hinata so strongly that he can look through her eyes and see things on her side. They know everything...

That's why, they fought the way they did..

I bit my lip, just watching the frustrated blonde demon before me with distress in my eyes...

I cursed, shaking my head..

Damn it all, to hell...

Naruto's P.O.V

"L-Leave me alone!"

"No!"

"Stop it, please!"

My heart was completely shattering as I listened to my human lover's desperate screams on her side, my eyes blocked entirely. All I saw, was..

Darkness..

But my ears were open to hear all. And what I did hear only pissed me off further. My body felt so hot, steaming hot as I sat and just listened, trying to pick up other voices. But I heard no one..

It was only Hinata..

I cursed.

Why aren't those bastards talking...

If they could at least say something, I could easily pinpoint how many there are. I also could find out a little about the area they were in but as of right now, all I heard was Hinata's cries and pleads, desperately begging for her life. I gritted my teeth, my face scrunching up in agony..

Damn it.. I can't listen to this..

I was growing infuriated, blood thirsty and antsy..

I want to kill those bastards and get Hinata back, now!

"Fuck!" I suddenly shouted and snapped my eyes open to be presented to the usual green grass before me, Kurama jumping slightly by my abrupt outburst.

He looked up at me from where he sat, one of his hands holding on tightly to his blooded chest, his orange hair incredibly messy. He looked, like shit..

Well, we both do..

I looked deadly slow up at him from where I sat which caused him to frown, his eyes taking in the defeat in mine.

He sighed. "Y-You, didn't see anything, did you?" He asked in concern in which I immediately answered, shaking my head.

I let out a frustrated curse, moving my hands back up to grip my head. "No... Hinata's most likely bound. I-I only heard her screams. Damn it.. She needs me.. She needs me so bad but I don't know where she is. I can't find her. I just don't fucking know, damn it."

My words were slowly starting to become a jumbled up mess as emotions from before started to flood back into my mind, body and soul, overwhelming me.

This situation, was highly different from the first time Hinata was taken away from me. Back then only Konan and her friends were keeping her hidden which was only child's play. But now...

These people..

Those hunters, are no laughing matter...

Those hunters know things. They know my connection with Hinata. They now know..

My weakness...

They're going to kill her.

I have to stop it..

But how?

I had so many questions but not enough answers which frustrated the hell out of me.

I don't know what to do...

I lowered my head, whimpering..

Oh my little one... I'll get you back soon..

I will find a way to seek her out, even if it kills me.

Oh I'll find her, and when I do, I'm coming for every one of those hunters that tried to hurt, my beloved Hinata..

So with that newfound determination, I picked my head up to look over at Kurama once again, our eyes meeting instantly.

His facial features lightened up at the sight of the newfound emotion that was held in my red glowing eyes, a faint smile coming upon his face.

"So.. You have a plan?" He asked hopefully on which I sadly shook my head, erasing the smile from his lips.

But I then raised my body up, soon working myself forward to grab gently a hold of one of the fox man's arms, soon picking him up. "Yes and no.. I don't exactly know where Hinata is but.. I have a few tricks up my sleeve in order to pinpoint her location. Hopefully, it works. But.." I trailed off, soon placing the groaning male back onto his feet, then pulling one of his arms around my neck, to keep him up.

I then turned to him, looking his damaged body over. I grimaced. "Well.. While I work to figure this out.. You can heal. Once you're fully healed, I'm gonna need your help tracking down Hinata. And we have to act fast.. There's no telling, what those bastards, are planning..."

Hinata's P.O.V

A haunting, frightening darkness surrounded me as large, unfriendly hands held my arms up to a point my feet were no longer touching the ground, my body hauled completely in the air.

I was no longer bound but my eyes were still covered, restricting me from seeing and from Naruto finding me. But, even still, I didn't stop fighting.

I kicked my legs and wiggled my arms as I was carried quickly throughout a cold building, one that held a long hallway.. Wherever they were taking me, it was far.. And that..

Scared me..

I couldn't do anything but scream and struggle. The hunters were too strong and no one seemed to even bother paying me any mind. I was only left to deal with the silence and the large hands taking me to an unknown designation. This whole thing was just so frightening...

I can't take this..

I want to go home..

I want to go back, to Naruto..

I miss him so much. I wasn't even able to say goodbye to him. I didn't even get to see, his face...

And he didn't get to see mine, before the hunters kidnapped me..

My heart felt heavy in my chest at that realization and tears began to fall freely down my face, damping the tight cloth that were tied around my eyes, quiet feminine sobs heard in the quiet building.

Occasionally I heard footsteps walk past me which lets me know that there were many more demon hunters located in this place. I pouted, lowering my head..

This place is probably filled with them...

I shook my head, biting down on my trembling lip...

This, isn't good...

I breathed shakily once more, my body continuing to be dragged down hallways until we crept up to two double doors, ones that I didn't even see.

I only heard them as the people that held me pushed them open, the hands soon throwing me down carelessly on the floor making me whine.

The way they treated me was so rough and revolting.. I hated it..

I didn't ask for any of this..

But soon, a hand suddenly grabbed the cloth which was wrapped around my midnight blue head and pulled it off, messing my hair up in the process.

"Stay still."

I suddenly heard from a young woman which made me freeze. It was so sudden and her voice lacked any empathy or friendliness, only strictness. Now that she has removed the blindfold from me, my eyes were now visible..

I could see now...

But I didn't dare move, I only stared down at the carpet before me, my body shaking tremendously. I was scared, beyond scared..

Petrified almost...

I want Naruto..

But as much as I wanted to move my eyes away, to see my surroundings in hopes that Naruto could pinpoint it, my body did not move an inch. It stayed rooted pathetically on the floor, following the orders of the older woman.

But, what I saw before me, gave me a little insight on where I was. The room I was in at the moment wasn't really big. It actually resembled a sauna room, but just without the sauna.

I tilted my head and slightly took my eyes off of the floor to glance towards the right and left of me, checking the walls that boxed me in..

Metal..

The brightness in the room also was placed on the extreme level, so if I would've looked around, I would've been blinded by it all.

I probably wouldn't be able to see anything anyway.

So, I stayed put and just waited for the woman to speak again. And it didn't take long for her to.

"Stand and hold out your hands. Make sure to keep your eyes held on, both of them. Don't look at anything else."

Her voice was loud now as if she was growing impatient, working my frightened body to a stand, the action done very shakily.

But my legs, didn't fail me and I was soon standing up on them, my hands slowly moving away from my side to be placed straight out in front of me.

And now in my sight, I set my lavender eyes on them, once again restricting Naruto and I from seeing my surroundings.

The woman that stood before me nodded at my obedience but then gave my body a look, clicking her tongue.

"Alright good. Now undress."

Immediately once she said those offensive words, my body froze instantly.

What, the hell?

Why do I need to do that?

It was already bad enough that I couldn't see my surroundings or the people around me..

Now, I have to remove my clothing!

I instantly shook my head, my eyes widened in pure disgust. "W-Why?" I screeched which immediately caused the woman to burst into a fit of laughter, the sound bouncing off of the walls. It all was just downright creepy.. I shuddered in response which only amused the red haired woman even more.

"Oh sorry, child. But it's a safety precaution for us. Since you've been around a demon. Heh, excuse me.. A powerful demon. We need to know if it's hiding anything on your body. Or, if you're carrying around any weapons. Nothing personal hun. There's a few more tests that need to be done before you can talk to my boss."

"Y-Your boss?" I whispered out while holding my gaze on my shaky pale hands in front of me, my voice slightly cutting off the older woman. One of her eyebrows raised and she scoffed by my question..

"Yes. My boss. I do recall him stating he wanted to speak to you. Don't tell me that demon has taken away your hearing, child."

Her voice was now playful, mocking me which caused me to whimper, my eyes closing for a brief second.

The discomfort, the nervousness I felt, was so strong, it was starting to make me antsy..

I want to get out of here so bad..

I wanted no parts of any of this.

And I definitely don't want to follow what this mad woman is ordering..

Naruto instructed me, ordered me to never show my body to anyone other than him..

Well, Kiba doesn't count..

But because I love him and I also love myself very much, I was having a hard time following such an order.

So, my body stood still in my spot, completely ignoring the red haired woman in front of me, a large black coat wrapped around her body, also covering her head as a hoodie. Under the coat, you could see a long elegant black dress, her spiky red hair pulled up into a high ponytail.

She stared down at me with one eyebrow raised, her eyes eyeing me with slight disdain. But also a look of mischief. She looked me over a bit and scoffed once more.

"Now let's not dawdle, child. Clothes off or I'll have it done, for you."

This time she spat the words rudely out of her mouth which made my heart drop down to the pit of my stomach, a loud gulp spilling from my lips..

I definitely don't want to happen..

I don't want that at all. So, I closed my eyes shut and began, to shakily move my hands down to the front of my shirt, complying reluctantly. But tears were slowly forming in my eyes though.

For the most part as I went about removing my clothing, it was silent. I no longer heard the woman but I really didn't care. The dirty action that I was doing felt so wrong.. I felt like I was tainting myself.. I also felt like I was..

Disrespecting my dear Naruto..

I kept my eyes closed and pulled my shirt over my head, soon dropping it by my feet.

Once I did that and I was indeed shirtless, a light blue lingerie was seen fitting my upper body, one that made me look womanly.

And at the sight of that, the red haired woman chuckled, throwing her head back in amusement. "Wow.. Look at you. No wonder the demon hasn't killed you yet. You're a doll. Who wouldn't keep you?" She spat teasingly which made my trembling worse, my cheeks growing a dark red.

My pale arms, stomach and chest was all exposed to the unknown room, the girl's words playing constantly through my head, lowering my self esteem a bit.

I shook my head, my movements placed on pause. "Please.. Don't tease me." I only whispered out pleadingly which the girl scoffed too. But she respected my plead and said nothing else.

So that, gave me the courage to resume my action.

Next, my shaky pale hands moved down to my jeans and I grabbed them tight, soon pulling my fingers down onto the front of them to unbutton them.

It took much more courage to pull my jeans down than my shirt, so hesitance was shown frequently.

But with several deep breaths, I was able to pull the buttons apart and then slip the designer jeans down, revealing my light blue flowery underwear.

Now the fabric was located on my ankles where they grew all wrinkled, my slender body slowly bending down to pull them down a bit more to soon step out of them all together. Also, I kicked off my flip flops as well, to not anger the older woman in front of me.

So finally, I was now standing only in my underclothes, my arms quickly moving up to try to cover myself. But when I did the woman growled, her voice flaring up once again.

"Hands out, child!"

She snapped back which I instantly did out of fear, shooting them towards the front of my body.

My chest heaved greatly as I was now on display for the older huntress to see, her eyes looking me over.

My ears heard her hum before she began to walk forward, high heels of her kind clicking the hardened floor as she walked.

First, she bent down to grab my clothes, giving them several heavy shakes while I kept my eyes trained on the palms of my hands, fighting the urge to look in her direction.

So instead, to distract myself, I only listened.

My ears picked up the many shuffles she made as she looked through my clothing, shaking it, twisting it, even smelling it. But at that action, she recoiled..

"Jesus! Bless your soul, child. Your clothing reeks of that demon. But no matter, you'll be put to rest soon, away from him."

I heard her speak which brought unimaginable fear within my heart, the organ beating faster. And at that, I desperately snapped my eyes up and planted them straight on the red haired woman who was in a crotch position on the floor by my feet, my eyes taking in her form, something I wasn't supposed to do.

But I don't care..

She just confirmed their intentions and it scared me like never before..

I don't, want to die..

I shook my head frantically, moving my hands up to clasped them, once again trying to plead for my life. "Please. You can't do this. I don't want to die. Please-" But by the sound of my voice so close to the woman, it alerted her.

Her brown eyes turned towards me and instantly, her eyes shot wide as they met mine.

She gasped, shooting up to a standing position in, rapid speed. "Child! I thought I told you to watch where you place those cursed eyes of yours on. Now, I think you'll be needing the blindfold agai-"

"Argh! I say that's a little harsh, hmm, Tayuya?"

Another unknown voice appeared but this one, was deep and masculine.

A male's..

Instantly, I felt the eyes of the newcomer on my exposed body and my skin grew a shade of red, embarrassment taking over my emotions.

The male chuckled at the visible sight of my flustered state and began to make his way from the double doors to instead walk around my body, inspecting me.

The devious silver haired male hummed as he looked me over, secretly licking his lips at what he saw. "Mmm.. It feels nice to finally have you here. The sweet taste of victory is right there.. I could just.."

Suddenly the male took a step forward so his chest pushed against my own, breaking my stance. I stumbled a bit by his action while the male breathed in my scent. He chuckled.

"Taste it, hun." He finished while he kept his abnormal purple eyes on me, my own moving to connect with his which frightened the woman behind him.

A loud gasp shot from her lips, her hands throwing my clothes back down onto the floor, discarding them in a fright. "Hidan! Don't look into her eyes. The demon can see you. He'll come after you-" But she was shushed by the stupid bastard, my eyes narrowing upon the confident male before me.

He stared down at me with little fear, his eyes rooted completely on mine, never backing down. But as I kept staring up at him, I could see the way he was looking down at me and it didn't seem like he was staring at me at all but instead, the person that was connected, to me..

Naruto..

His eyes were narrowed playfully, a mocking little smirk placed on his lips. He chuckled, pulling his head down more into my personal space. "Seems we've finally gotten your girl, brat. Heh, it wasn't hard. We only followed the trail you so stupidly left behind. And now.."

A large hand suddenly reached out and grabbed my shoulder tightly, pulling me close, my own eyes growing teary.

His grip was so tight it was excruciating, wet tears quickly falling down my face from the pain I felt. But he only continued on with his vengeful rant, his eyes now glaring hate filled daggers down at me as if I, was Naruto..

"Your little peaceful time is over. Now that we have your, so called, precious human, we'll cut her up into tiny little pieces where you'll soon follow suit. Your fate will be sealed by hers. We'll send you and your little demon friend straight down to hell, screaming. The gate to this world and your hellish world will be closed forever. And the innocent little lamb you connected yourself with will be in a place you will never reach! Hah! Serves you right-"

"Stop it!" I screeched, soon pulling my hands up to push harshly at his rock hard body, successfully driving him back.

His body stumbled across the hard floor but he easily regained his composure, both of the hunters eyes rooted on my shaky, teary form.

I sobbed in nothing but hurt, shaking my head as I eyed the two of them, making sure to get a nice look at them.

I sniffed, pointing one finger in their direction. "This, is wrong. The way you're dealing with this situation, is wrong! There could be a peaceful way to deal with this. No one, needs to die. I-I could play a-a-a part in this. I could just talk Naruto out of hurting humans. H-H-He trusts me! Listens to me!" I screeched but only loud, insane laughter followed my words, the silver haired male's face twisted in amusement.

He tilted his head at me, giving me a crooked grin. "You're kidding, right? You do know the demon you're fucking is the same one that's slaughtered men, women and children every since this planet breathed it's first batch of humans. Tsk, what a foolish girl you are. Us demon hunters have executed many ways to take down Naruto, done rituals, spells, everything, even before you were born. None work. He always comes back. He always finds a way to sneak out of the shadows and become one with this world. But because of me, I, have found a way to put him down once and for all. Konan has done the research and now, all there's left, is to put everything together. And the answer, is you. You, are Naruto's weakness. Any harm that's done to your precious body will affect Naruto just the same. So why choose a peaceful method when there's a solution right here in our faces? I say killing one human is a hell of a lot better than millions of them slaughtered, by Naruto. Sorry, but this is the only way."

His eyes were hardened as ice as he finished up his speech, one that he wasn't going to change for anyone. He meant everything he said. He wants Naruto dead so bad, he's willing to kill me in the process.

This, is just madness..

My body stood in a trembling mess as I stared back at the two demon hunters before me, the woman's eyes held entirely on Hidan's, averting my gaze entirely. But Hidan stared straight at me, no fear present.

Only hatred.

My brain couldn't process any words to protect Naruto and I so.. I only bowed my head in silence, shedding tears. There was nothing I could say anyway. These people aren't going to listen to a damn thing that comes from my mouth.

They probably think I'm a disgrace..

So silence was the only thing that I responded to them with, which made Hidan grin in satisfaction. "Ahh.. Good. You've accepted your fate. I hope you know you're doing a world a favor." He hummed out but soon turned towards Tayuya and nodded.

"Resume the tests." He stated on which she nodded, soon moving forward to do just that while I only stood sadly in my spot, my heart shattering at the outcome of things. Nothing, was going my way.

Nothing ever does..

I'm going to die along with Naruto..

I'll never see him again..

That alone, crushed every part of me, nothing but sobs heard in the room as the woman began to search my body, disregarding my sorrow..

This, isn't what I pictured my life to be..

Oh Naruto..

I'm so, sorry..

***
A.N.
