In the land of Waves, a bridge can be seen, and 7 people are standing on it. There was a thick mist, so if you were far away, then you wouldn't make out what they were doing. But if you were closer, then you could see that these people are fighting except for 2 of them.
Tall and lean with spiky silver hair. Typically wears a standard Konoha ninja uniform along with a mask covering the lower half of his face, and his forehead protector tilted to cover his left eye, Kakashi Hatake.
A tall, monstrous-looking man with pale skin, short spiky black hair, and shark-like teeth. He wears bandages around the bottom half of his face and a sleeveless outfit with baggy pants. The Demon of the Mist, Zabuza Momoichi.
A young boy with raven-black hair styled in a large fringe that covers the left side of his face. He has dark onyx eyes and a slim, athletic build. He wears a navy blue high-collared shirt and white shorts. Sasuke Uchiha.
A young girl with vibrant pink hair styled in a large forehead protector, bright green eyes, and a slender build. She wears a red qipao dress with white circular designs and tight dark shorts. This was Sakura Haruno.
A young, androgynous-looking individual with long, dark brown hair and brown eyes. They wear a green, hunter-nin mask and a green and white outfit. This was Haku Yuri.
A young boy with spiky blond hair, bright blue eyes, and whisker-like markings on his cheeks. He wears an orange jumpsuit with a blue shirt underneath. This was Naruto Uzumaki.
Right now, Naruto and Sasuke were trapped in a dome of ice mirrors created by Haku using his kekkei genkai, Hyoton. They both had senbon impaled on their bodies in multiple areas and were struggling to stand straight.
"Please stop resisting and just give up, I do not wish to hurt you, and I certainly do not want to kill you. But if you still choose to stand on Master Zabuza's way, then I'll have no choice but to kill you both" Haku said as he launched multiple senbon at Naruto as he was getting slower and breathing heavily. But then the unexpected happened, Sasuke jumped in front of Naruto to take the blow for him
"Sa-Sasuke? Why did you protect me" Naruto asked his comrade and friend
"I don't know, dobe, my body just moved on its own." Sasuke fell down to the ground but was still conscious. "The man I hate... it's my brother. I'm still too weak to kill him, but in the end, I'm the one who died. Get strong, Naruto... and don't die, " and with that, Sasuke's body was motionless.
"He knew it was a trap but still went on to protect you. He was a true shinobi. Is it the first time you've seen a comrade die?" Haku said emotionlessly
"Shut up." Naruto whispered
"What was that?" Haku asked the blonde boy. Suddenly, the temperature dropped, and a menacing feeling flooded where they were at
"I SAID SHUT UP!!" Naruto unleashed a burst of chakra, but it wasn't the usual blue chakra. This chakra was red and was screaming death at Haku
'W-what is this feeling? And that chakra, it shouldn't be visible and the color is red instead of blue. Just who is this boy?" Haku thought to himself
Naruto's appearance started to change. His whiskers thicked, his canine teeth elongated into sharp fangs, his nails grew into clawed fingernails, and his eyes changed from sapphire blue to red slitted eyes. The chakra took the form of a single fox tail
~Naruto's Mindscape~
A sewer was seen and at the end was a large red cage that was taller than Hokage Mountain, with the kanji for 'seal' in it. Inside was a large orange-redish fox with nine tails. This was the Nine Tailed Demon Fox/ Kyuubi. The strongest of the Nine Bijuu. It can create tsunamis with a flick of its tails, level plains, and more. But unfortunately, it was sealed inside people ever since Madara Uchiha used it in his battle against Hashirama Senju, which he lost. Ever since then, it was sealed inside three people, and they all were Uzumakis. But enough of that. Currently, it was woken up by the fact that his jailer was taking his chakra without his permission, and his body was still weak to handle it. If he were to take in too much chakra, then his body would shut down and get him killed. The Kyuubi smirked. If he gave Naruto too much chakra, then his body would be weak and his for the taking. The Kyuubi started pumping more chakra into Naruto, hoping for its plan to work but he made a big mistake as he released a seal that was put at Naruto at birth for his protection.
