When Sparks Fly

Flashback
As Naruto and Sakura prepared to be teleported inside Gamakichi's stomach, Naruto could feel a presence in the shadows staring down at him. He had his pack in hand as he looked up to see where he felt the presence would be at. Bam. He saw a dark hooded figure watching him from afar. But the figure meant no ill will, so Naruto put it off, having the feeling that he might regret later on for putting such a thing to the side so quickly.

"Naruto!", Sakura called out as Naruto turned his head to her so quickly.

"What's up Sakura?"

"Go. Now," she pointed her head to the toad, "We're on borrowed time so come on let's go stupid!"

Naruto took one last glance at the camp, distant yelling of soldiers getting amputated, silent tears around, the stench of corpses piling up by the minute as more and more soldiers died. Hell, even two Kage died. The mizukage Mei Terumi, and the tsuchikage Onoki, whom succumbed to blood loss from losing limbs during the previous battle with Madara.

That's not to mention that his friends Choji Akimichi and Kiba Inuzuka died in vicious ways. Choji's father and Kiba's mother had come to him with respect, making him promise that he would avenge their deaths with all he's got. Shikamaru almost lost his right eye but sustained a massive injury to his arm, which is curable but healing from it won't be easy. Neji Hyuga was still kicking, running around and helping anyone he could despite his poor chakra and energy. Hinata was making sure everyone had their morale boosted, she ignored the fact that her own self confidence was destroyed. Maybe she thought helping others in their time of suffering would bring her some peace.

Naruto furrowed his eyebrows, knowing that everyone was counting on him now. They all did what they could, and will continue doing so, but the one who can bring an end to all of this was Naruto Uzumaki himself.

He did a teleportation signal and disappeared along with Sakura, they found themselves inside the stomach of Gamakichi, which to be described isn't slimey at all. Rather it was clean. The toad had made it clear that he would be fasting for the next 30 days, only drinking water. This of course made their next few weeks living there much more easier.

"Sakura," Naruto called out in a worried tone as he sat with his legs crossed leaning against the stomachs wall, "Where has Kakashi been?"

"Scouting with the other shinobi, making sure no surprises or unwarranted attacks happen to the camp."

"But he's hurt."

"Kakashi will turn out fine, he's stronger than me at least."

Naruto nodded as he rubbed his hands together, the ground beneath him began turning and twirling around until it made a kanji sign. "Safe."

Naruto hyped himself up and clapped his hands, "Alright!", he jumped up, "Lets get to it."

Sakura was taken by surprised but immediately tied her hair in a ponytail and kneeled on the floor as Naruto sat in a meditative posture. "Run me through it again. Which beasts are we up against today?", she asked.

"I already have two in my control, one tail and eight tails."

"Names?"

"Shukaku and Gyuki."

"What about the nine tails?"

"I'm not sure on that one yet, at least half of him is mine but I just recently got the other half, so I need to fight that one I'm guessing."

"So which ones we fighting today?"

"Just two tails."

"Should be easy right stupid?", she said as she wrapped a wet towel around his head, turned to his front and released a seal on it.
