Cherreads

Chapter 54 - Chapter 53

Chouza, seeing the damage he delivered completely undone in mere seconds screamed in rage, growing his right hand out he slammed it into the blond, pinning him against the wall, using the full weight of the Akimichi's jutsu to crush him against the wood splinters and concrete rubble. Naruto struggled to breathe, his breath coming out in short, quick pants as the Akimichi continued to crush him, his ribs soon snapped under the strain, coming dangerously close to his heart and piercing his lungs

He focused as best he could, forming and molding the red chakra as it formed tendrils that went over Chouza's hand and stabbed into his forearm, trying to push him back. The red haired man screamed, and struggled against the pain, trying to continue pushing down on the blond as the red chakra began pushing him off.

The Akimichi cursed and put the second pill in his mouth as Naruto's chakra tendrils spread and pierced his stomach and legs, his muscles doubled in size and his chakra output tripled. He ignored the injuries and crushed him with renewed vigor. Naruto grit his teeth and again struggled to breathe. At he attempted to take another breath he suddenly felt a grip tighten on his neck. He snapped his eyes open and shifted his eyes down, seeing a shadow clenching around his neck. He felt the edges of his vision grow dark.

"Inoichi! Fry this fuckers brain!" Chouza yelled coughing up blood.

The blond haired man nodded before forming another set of handseals.

Naruto felt the presence enter his mind, his eyes rolled to the back of his head as he finally passed out.

Chouza, Shikato and Inoichi each breathed a sigh of relief. Just before they each felt his chakra spike again.

The three teammates looked at the blond as his head snapped up, his hood falling back revealing his blond hair and crimson eyes. Yet these eyes were different, where once they held nothing but cold apathy, now they were dancing with sick insanity and bloodlust. His teeth shined as a psychotic grin spread across his features his fangs growing until they were practically touching his lower lip.

His chakra spiked again and the Akimichi suddenly screamed in pain as red chakra spikes exploded from the blonds entire body piercing his arm with the jagged thorns. He cursed and was about to place the third and final pill in his mouth when Naruto appeared infront of him and harshly grabbed him by the mouth pulling the taller man down so he was at eyelevel. "Ah, ah, ah" He chided, his insane grin widening before he plunged his fists through the mans chest.

Chouza gave a small jerk before his form slackened.

Inoichi and Shikato's eyes were wide in horror as they saw their friend's body tossed aside the Kyuubi's Jinchuriki's smile never left his face as he turned to them, the flames behind him once again covered his face in shadow, only his softly glowing eyes and wicked smile were visible.

He slowly brought his blood covered gauntlet up to his lips and licked some of the crimson liquid off of it. His insane grin never leaving. "I must thank you humans. Had you not weakened him I would have never been allowed free. Its been so very long since I've tasted human blood."

Shikato and Inoichi's eyes widened in pure terror. "K-kyuubi?" The shadow user asked.

The demon chuckled. The fear he could feel coming from them was almost palpable, filling his senses. He savored it like a fine wine, enjoying every second of it. "Correct human, the stress on his body, and especially his mind, was far too much for him to handle at one time. Giving me temporary control, at least till he recovers. I must thank you especially for that human." He gestured to Inoichi. "Were it not for your mind attack, his defenses would have never weakened enough for me to take over." He laughed as Inoichi seemed to pale.

"Now then…I have a limited amount of time…" He threw off his gauntlets and took a stance, his natural claws spread wide as if he was leaving them an opening.

He licked his bloodied fangs, enjoying the metallic coppery taste.

"And I want to make the most of it!"

Hiashi groaned as his mind returned to the conscious realm. He clutched his head and stumbled slightly as he stood. His eye's blearily looked around before he regained his bearings. Noticing he was in the south wing of the compound.

The building was burning all around him.

The roof collapsed behind him. He jumped and turned around. He looked up and saw a silhouette of a human, hidden by shadows, glowing eyes and gleaming fangs glaring back at him.

He took out some Kunai and threw them, but the figure merely vanished as the knives hit him.

Hiashi activated his byakugan.

Again a sound was heard behind him, close. Too close infact he spun around, in time to see a shadow run into a room. He dashed after it but as he was going to enter the doorway a small explosion collapsed the hallway. He jumped back and felt the bite as three claws slashed his side. He gasped and held his wound, gritting his teeth, he took a slight step back where the floor gave way. He stumbled falling on his back he stood up again, hearing laughing sounds coming from all around him. He stood and glared, looking all around the hall for any sign of him. "Show yourself you coward!" He yelled.

"As you wish." Hiashi gasped spun around, was grabbed by his throat and slammed into the wall. He gasped, trying to breathe he struck the tenketsu in his arm and struck his chest hoping to loosen the boys grip.

He looked down at the sick grin on the boys face. "Hn, foolish Hyuuga. I'll enjoy this." The fox said with sick glee before twitching his wrist to jerk the mans head to the side exposing the base of his neck.

The Hyuuga heads eyes widened as the boy moved in and bit down at the junction between his neck and his shoulder, biting deep into the artery. He gurgled before once before the blond yanked with his teeth pulling a whole chunk from his neck. Blood fountained from the injury, hissing as it met the burning wood. He died seconds later as the demon fox savored the taste.

"Hn, my fun is almost over I see." He said to himself as the edges of his eyes began to turn blue. "I hope you enjoy what I drank fool boy."

The eyes turned blue completely and a fierce scowl formed on his features. He spat out the blood and wiped it with his sleeve. "Damnable creature!" He snarled, both at his lack of control and the disgusting taste in his mouth.

He stared at the dead clan head for a moment before he turned and left. Leaving the body to the flames.

From ashes to ashes.
