Training Again - Trying to reach a new level

Junsei's eyes widened as Naruto said those four words...

" T-t-t-take you to him? But what is something bad happens?" Junsei asked as she stood up and looked at him.

She gulped as she waited him answer, her thoughts swirling.

"He just wants me dead right? If he kills me outside Konoha, then the village will not be in danger. And even so.....he won't be able to kill me." He said as his eyes started to turn red.

Junsei jumped at Naruto's tone. She slid down to her knees.

" But Naruto-san, If you kill Orochimaru-ojisan, I'll have to take over his place... Not to mention you'll be killing m... uh... 'Guardian'." Junsei said as she looked up at him.

"But even if you take his place.....you won't need to follow his orders. Right?" He asked while helping her getting up.

Junsei lowered her head.

" I will follow then, whether I want to or not... I won't have much choice in the matter. He has already made sure of that." Junsei said as she looked back at Naruto.

She heard a rustle in the bushes and she looked towards it. A lone snake slithered its way past the bushes. Junsei gulped. She turned back to Naruto.

" Take you to him or fight me? Which do you want to do?" Junsei asked her eyes darting from the snake to Naruto.

"Take me to him." He said as Gamakichi went from behind the bushes, smashing the snake.

Junsei nodded her head as she turned away from Naruto. She jumped into into a tree waved at Naruto to follow her.

" Come one Naruto-san. We'll run about half way then I'll teleport(sp?) us there. It's safer that way... Minna! We'll be back!" Junsei said as she ran from one tree to another.

Naruto quickly started to follow her.

Junsei hopped from tree to tree, listening as she heard Naruto's hops and lands. She bit her lip. How was this going to turn out? What if Someone went berserk? Its would be total chaos. She saw a clearing the forest and jumped down in the center of it. She looked around and sensed no one but Naruto. She watched as Naruto landed in front of her.

" Are you absolutely sure Naruto-san? Once we get there and I take you to Orochimaru-ojisan, there will be no turning back." Junsei asked as she held out her hand to him.

If he took it, they would go. She didn't know what would happen, but it couldn't and wouldn't be a walk in the park.

Naruto grabbed her hand without hesitating. "Sure. Let's go."

Junsei nodded her head and after concentrating, they were gone in a poof of smoke. Seconds later, they were in a dark room with lab beakers, test tube and the like surrounding them. Junsei crept through the room, silently and trying not to make a sound. She didn't want anyone finding them just then She heard the door open and she pushed Naruto, back from the direction of the door.

" Oh, Its nice to see you again Junsei..."

" Ko-ko-konnichiwa Kabuto-san." Junsei said.

" Do you wish to see Orochimaru-sama?"

" Hai." Junsei said.

" Follow me, and bring Naruto-kun with you." He said as he turned around and walked away from the room.

Junsei stiffened as Kabuto saw through her attempt to hide Naruto. Junsei walked back to Naruto and grabbed his hand.

" This way Naruto-san." Junsei said as she pulled him to follow Kabuto.

Naruto started to feel some anger inside him towards Kabuto, but he let it past, because is target was.....Orochimaru.

Junsei followed Kabuto and she felt uneasy. Its been how long since she had seen Ororchimaru? A few years? She tried to smile to cheer herself up. Usually when Kabuto led to her Orochimaru, it was either for training or she was being punished... She almost stopped. Crap, which is it? Both were bad, but training was better! Kabuto stopped and looked back at Junsei and Naruto.

" We are here. You may go through, but mind you Junsei... He might not be able to take two surprises." Kabuto said before he walked away.

Junsei looked at the door with snake decorations on it. Junsei opened the door and walked in slowly.

" Oi! Orochimaru-oji-" She called before a kunai whipped across her cheek.

When it landed on the wall, the wound on Junsei's cheek split itself of.

" Its been awhile Junsei." Orochiamaru's voice said.

Junsei quickly drooped to her knee in a bow.

" I hav-"

" Ah, Naruto-kun, its so nice to see you again... To what do I owe this visit?" Orochimaru asked as the candles lit and he became visible, sitting in his throne chair, a smile on his face.

Naruto looked at Orochimaru without moving. "Where's Sasuke?" He asked without hesitating.

" Ah Sasuke-kun... I'm afraid you won't be seeing him now. He's... busy with his training right know." Orochimaru said as he looked at Naruto.

Junsei shivered before she stood up.

" T-t-training?" Junsei asked.

" Yes and I must say he's doing quite well. But what will you expect from my next vessel?" Orochimaru asked.

" Next Vessel? But Kimimaro... you're not in his bo-"

" He's dead... And to be honest I'm moving to what should have been my number one vessel in the first place.... Now Junsei why don't you let Naruto take out his frustration, ne?" Orochimaru asked as he cocked his head to the side, his smile still in place.

Naruto stood in the same place. "Sasuke.......is dead?" His eyes started to glow red as his tone of voice started to change.

Orochimaru raised an eyebrow...

' So quick to jump to conclusions... Maybe...'

" Yes.. The Uchiha was weaker than I had first thought. Poor Sasuke-kun, he couldn't even handle the curse mark I gave him." Orochimaru smiled.

Junsei looked back at Naruto and could feel some type of change happening. Junsei stood in between Orochimaru and Naruto.

" Naruto-san, please calm down, this is pro-"

" Junsei...why don;t you fight this battle? After all, it was you who gave me the idea to use Sasuke as my next body." Orochimaru lied.

" No, I didn't... Naruto-san, please calm down. Think all of this through." Junsei said as she backed towards Orochimaru, trying to avoid Naruto's rage.

Naruto's appearence was starting to change as his hair started to grow and his canines too. "Sasuke.........WAS MY FRIEND!" He yelled as a huge ammount of chakra bursted around him causing some destruction without moving a finger.

Junsei feel back at the amount of Chakra that suddenly burst from Naruto.

" Naruto-san just-"

" Junsei, fight him and show him why Sasuke-kun was weak." Orochimaru said as she stood up.

Junsei stood up and flared her arms at Orochimaru.

" NO! I'm ain't gonna fight your battle." Junsei said before she turned back to Naruto. " Naruto-san, you should know better than anybody that Uchiha-san won't die that easily and certainly not from one training session with this snake." Junsei said.

Orochimaru frowned and laid a hand on Junsei's shoulder.

" Shut up and fight." He said as he push Chakra into a curse mark.

" Have fun Naruto-kun..." Orochimaru said before he poofed somewhere else in his base.

" Naruto-san, you have to calm down and think..." Junsei said as her first curse mark started to throb.

She would have went over to calm Naruto down, but the Chakra was preventing that.

' Poor Naruto-san,'

Naruto stoped as he heard what Junsei said. "Sasuke.....he's still alive." He said while the chakra around him started to vanish.

Junsei nodded and sighed with relief. This was good.

" Yes he is, but chances are Orochimaru-ojisan is going to take him away from here and wait until we leave to bring him back. Oh, and please don't put you Chakra level up, I don't think I could handle it." Junsei sad with a smile. She walked over to the door.

" So, do you want to go now, or look around until you find something Orochimaru-ojisan?" Junsei asked.

Nnaruto looked at her and thinked for a while. "Let's get out of here." He said at last.

Junsei nodded and grabbed Naruto's hands. She closed her eyes in concentration before they were gone in a poof of smoke. Moments later they were back on the training field in the center of everyone.

" I'm sorry you had to go through that Naruto-san." Junsei said as she let him hands go and backed away from him

Naruto nodded and smiled. "It's ok. I know you weren't expecting that." He said while looking at her.

Junsei nodded at his understanding of the situation.

" Thank you for understanding Naruto-san." Junsei sad as she bowed.
