Kyuubi Phantom Ch: 18

This is it, the final battle. The demon lord is going down; he wasn't going to get away this time or ever again. I'm going to make sure that he is tormented for the rest of his life! And me and Kurama are going to make sure of that. For today, it'll be a tag team! I have nothing to fear anymore… before, I feared the darkness controlling me, that Kurairyou would use me to rule over the human world and the other realms. But this time, it's all going to end… and we're going to end it for good.

Naruto stood before Kurama, his eyes glowing in rage as he got ready to fight. Nothing was going to stop him that was for sure. "So, you think you can beat me Naruto… what makes you think you can beat me?" said Kurairyou with a smirk.

"Damn straight I can beat you. I'll kick your ass!" shouted Naruto before he charged forward, he was going to kick some ass and take some names. Growling, Naruto jumped into the air and kicked the demon lord in the face.

Though, the demon lord just smirked and grabbed Naruto's ankle and threw him into the wall. Yelping from the surprise, Naruto flew into the air, he had to think of something. This demon guy was a lot tougher than he looks… Growling, he flipped through the air, his feet pressing firmly into the wall before he pushed himself off the wall and flew right toward the demon lord.

Not seeing that attack coming, the demon lord went flying from the sheer force of the hit and slammed into the wall. Narrowing his eyes, Naruto landed on his feet and growled… nothing was going to stop him. "I'll kill you, and avenge Hinata and Hana. I'll make sure that you suffer for what you've done!" shouted the young man before his eyes glowed blue and shot out his ice ray. Though, right now he wished that he could transform into his fox form but this room just wasn't big enough for that to happen.

"I'll rip you a new one." Growled out Naruto before his eyes returned to red and green, though both shot out the demon and ghost ray. Which, to Naruto was new but he wasn't complaining. Kurairyou screamed out from the pain before deflecting the rays with the back of his hand. Though that was only part of his plan.

Jumping into action, Naruto swung his fist at Kurairyou, hitting him square in the face. The sound of a crack had been heard, a sure sign that he had broken the demon lord's nose. Smirking, Naruto couldn't believe just how easy that had been!

Screaming, Kurairyou's claws glowed purple before swinging them at Naruto. The attack hit their mark, though mostly just grazing his right cheek. Naruto jumped back as he said "I'm going to kill you Naruto. Then use my powers to bring you back and force you to join me!" He then started to laugh like a mad man. Naruto though just thought that this guy was just plain crazy as hell. Why would was this guy so intent on trying to get him to join him? It didn't make sense to him at all, so why would… ah screw it!

Jumping back, Naruto held up both of his hands, the combination of his demon and ghost rays forming a glowing orb in his circled palms. "Time to die fucker!" shouted Naruto only for the fusing of his attacks to explode before he could release it. Naruto flew into the wall, screaming out of shock and surprise he hit the wall and groaned in pain. "Ow…"

"You can't beat me with you being so unstable." Smirked Kurairyou as he pushed himself and started to walk toward Naruto.

"Stay away from my grandson!" shouted Kurama as he burst through the walls.

"Ah, have you decided to join me Kurama?"

"Fuck you." Growled out Kurama before standing by Naruto. This was surprising, Naruto had to admit. When he first saw Kurama, he looked like he was in his forty's and now… he looked younger! Like he was twenty! Just what did he do in the first place? Naruto would have to learn his secret when he started to grow old.

"Sasuke, Sakura, get Hinata out of here!"

Both teens were a little surprised that Naruto wasn't crazy right now. Though, they did as they were asked and picked up Hinata's body and started to carry her away. Kurama growled as he said "we'll have to work together Naruto. It's the only way to kick his ass for the crimes he's done to the family." Nodding, Naruto agreed to that… this guy had to be tormented for all eternity and he was going to make sure of that.

The thought of all of this made him want to kick some ass and take some names… even more than ever. Taking a deep breath, Naruto got into position into fighting… both him and Kurama were going to double team, it seemed like their best option in order for them to beat this guy and at the moment Naruto didn't give a damn if they had to double team like this. It was the only way to win…

This guy had to die or at least suffer for all of the things that he's done in his life. That he has done to his family… to what he's done to Hinata. Though, sadly he didn't have anything that would get him to suffer for all of the crimes. All of the things that he's done… just thinking about it made his blood boil. It made him burn with rage and anger… The only other time he's felt like this was when He had been in a fight with those guys that kept on hitting on Hinata…

The memory itself was enough to send Naruto into a rage. Them saying what they would do to her after they beat the crap out of him… just thinking about it was enough to make Naruto want to kick some ass right here and now! Screaming with rage, Naruto charged at Kurairyou and swung his fists and legs at him. Hoping to get a good hit in.

While for Kurama, he just charged in though was also trying to get Naruto to relax. For if he was to lose his cool then there was a chance that Naruto would get himself killed in the heat of the battle.

Though, while the demon himself just laughed and blocked all of the hits. Kurama though knew that it was the only way, they had to hurry up and beat him… though, that was when Kurama had an idea. Smirking, he whispered to Naruto "keep him busy, I have a plan." With that, Naruto nodded and watched as Kurama disappeared in a swirl of wind before the young man started to go back into fighting.

Shaking his head, Naruto growled as he took a deep breath. Maybe if he did… yeah, demonic aura could possibly work. Cracking his knuckles, Naruto jumped back and closed his eyes as he calmed himself. Focusing on the aura that surrounded him, trying to harness that aura and use it as his weapon. As an extension of himself so he could kick some serious ass.

Though, right now he had to think of a way to get this guy's guard down! He had to think, what did Sasuke say once when they were kids?

It was a cloudy day in Konoha, Naruto groaned and tried to push himself out of the ally that he was left in. Some guys pulled him into the ally and beat the shit out of him. This of course was something that Naruto should have seen coming. Groaning, Naruto didn't think that he would be able to handle all of this…

Though, it seemed that he had bitten off more than he could chew. Maybe it was because he had refused to use his demon strength on them, knowing that if he had used it that it would cause problems for him and those around him. Hell, he doesn't even remember most of the battle that was taking place. The last thing he remembered was them threatening Hinata and after that, it was at that moment that he felt an ever consuming rage that it seemed that his mind had blanked out…

Next thing he knew, he was on the ground covered in bruises, cuts and dried blood.

Groaning, he shook his head and half-dragged his body out of the ally and tried to get himself home. But had hoped that he wouldn't have to explain what had happened. Rubbing his shaky hand on his forehead as he slowly limped through the rain and sighed softly. This was terrible; his body was cold and shaky from all of the rain that was hitting his body.

"Naruto?"

Looking up, Naruto groaned softly and stared at the blurry image of his best friend Sasuke. Why was he out here in the rain? Damn he doesn't make sense sometimes… wait was he really thinking that or was his mind shut down from the cold? This was all confusing right now.

"Naruto you're parents are worried sick and- holy shit!" Sasuke was in shock and rushed to his best friend. "Damn it, I'll have to take you to a hospital."  Muttered Sasuke before helping his best friend to the hospital. This wasn't going to be good, unless he was taken to the Uchiha's Privet Hospital… Otherwise, he would be screwed and nothing more… for the time being anyway.

***

After getting himself treated, Naruto was getting a good lecture from Sasuke. The guy didn't know what more he could do, it seemed that it pissed Naruto off all the more. Taking a deep breath, Naruto calmly said "I'm sorry…"

"You should be you idiot! You could have been killed! Even with your powers." He whispered the last part in a hiss, showing that he was also being very careful not to let anyone know about his best friend's powers. Least that was a plus. Taking a deep breath, Naruto let Sasuke keep going on and on with his rant. Like how stupid it was to have been in that ally, how stupid it was to have fought like he did…

"Look, I know it was stupid! I don't even remember most of it Sasuke. They threatened to take Hinata against her will and that's it. I blacked out and woke up in the shape you found me in. that's all…"

"That is because she's your trigger."

"Trigger?"

"Naruto, everyone has a weakness. Yours is Hinata. If anyone threatens her in any shape, or form then you go insane. I'm guessing you go into some kind of blinding rage where you black out and your body does the damage for you." Sasuke explained as he crossed his arms and sighed softly. Naruto though, had a feeling that there was more to this conversation than he lets on. The black haired teen stared at his friend as he said "you have to learn to control your rage. For rage isn't just a weapon, but it's also something that can get you killed."

"So, what else?" asked Naruto as he gave him a big bland stare.

"What else? When you can't find someone's weakness take their greatest strength and use it against them." Said Sasuke with a laugh.

That's it! Naruto smirked; he knew that Kurairyou was full of himself. Thinking so high and mighty of himself and his so called 'plans'. That was something that he could use against him. Grinning from ear to ear, Naruto calmly said "so, your plans the whole time had been to… oh I don't know… get people who have been raised by humans to join a demon to destroy the world they have grown to love?"

"Yes."

"Wasn't very smart you idiot! Like they would have joined you to destroy what was dear to them."

"Shut up you pathetic excuse for a demon!"

"Why don't you make me you prissy little asshole."

The young lord growled and charged at Naruto, just as he had planned. This was what he had hoped for; there was nothing that was going to stop him now. Now, was the chance that he had been waiting for, this was the moment of truth! Just had to weaken the bastard and hope that Kurama finished what he had been planning to do, after that it would be perfect! And they could go home… and… and Naruto would have to explain what had happened to Hinata to her parents…

Punching the demon in the head, Naruto grabbed his wrist quickly and started to spin him around. "Die fucker!" shouted Naruto before throwing him into the air, jumping afterwards and spun, swinging his leg and slamming it into the demon lord's stomach.

The demon lord screamed from the pain before he was slammed into the floor. After that, Naruto created a orb of green light before shouting "take this asshole!" and threw the now, huge orb of green light and threw it at the demon lord. Maybe this would kill him… maybe Kurama wouldn't be needed for this fight after all. Though, while he was thinking about his victory dance, Kurairyou jumped through the smoke and grabbed Naruto by the throat. Gasping in shock, Naruto tried to claw at his wrists.

"I'll have to wait for the next Kyuubi Phantom…" He said with a smirk while strangling Naruto.

Naruto thought that this was the end of him… he thought that he was going to die… Suddenly, he felt a tug; Naruto stared with wide eyes when he saw Kurama grab the demon lord and threw him off of the now coughing teenager. "You alright Naruto?"

Naruto nodded and looked up at his ancestor as he asked "so, what is your plan?"

"We blast him toward that wall. He'll be trapped in his own contraption for a long time. Forever… just follow my lead." Naruto just nodded to what the man said and took a deep breath. Both men stared at where the demon lord had been thrown, Naruto still wasn't sure what the plan was but hey, he had a small idea on what it was. Looking up at Kurama, he saw that both of his eyes were glowing, one red and one green like his… Maybe, he was going to use his ghost and demon rays…

Smirking, he did the same thing… focusing on his ghost and demon rays. Though, what was said next had surprised Naruto. "Use your ice ray through your eyes with your demon and ghost rays." Naruto just nodded, the orbs of red and green appeared in his palms, his eyes glowing blue as was Kurama's. This was going to be the big plan…

"You can't win Kurama!"

"No, you can't win Kurairyou!" shouted both demon/ghost hybrids as they shot out their combined attacks at the demon lord.

He screamed out in pain before flying into the wall. Naruto hadn't expected him to fly that hard, that was for sure… Kurama then charged forward and told the others to stay back. Naruto wasn't sure what was going on, though what he did know… was that he could hear screams.

Gulping, Naruto just waited for a bit… hoping that maybe he would get some kind of explanation to what Kurama was doing. Suddenly, Kurama came back and a wall formed with a strange kind of lock. Kurama smirked as he said "he'll be trapped in there forever… no one can unlock that door but me."

"What… did you do?"

"Chained him to a big flat stone, the chains made by the greatest crafters known to man, demon and ghost alike. Next, is a stone snake hanging over his face that will drip venom… he'll forever be in pain and torment, knowing that he'll never be free." Smirked Kurama before grabbing Naruto's hand and started to walk away… all Naruto had to think was that he was glad that Kurama was on his side right about now…
