The Beast Inside (A Naruto Fanfiction) #Wattys2016

Team Zombie

I wanted to see if I can actually see the future, or what is happening right now. It has been on my mind ever since that dream about a week ago. So I sat down on the ground with my legs crossed and my hands together to concentrate.

*** 15 Minutes later vision ***

Kakuzu and Hidan are walking up to, what looks to be a temple. Kakuzus' hand turns black and he punches the barrier and breaks it open.

Monks scatter all over the place, panicking.

"Alert Lord Chiriku!" One monk says as another leaves into the temple.

"These guys look like they wont willing convert to the way of Jashin. Nope, no converts here." Hidan says and it makes me sad that I haven't heard his voice in so long, it almost sounds foreign to me.

"Those robes, could it be that these two are-"

"There could be no doubt, they're from the Akatsuki!" Another monk interrupts as Hidan and Kakuzu jump down from the ruble.

As the monks gather around the temples' entrance, another monk with the same waist cloth that Asuma wears comes forward and they move out of the way.  

So this is Chiriku? And this is in the Fire Temple.

"Aaah, here comes another highly virtuous fellow."

"This one is more than just virtuous, according to our bingo book he's worth 30 million."

"Pft, hey were not doing this just for the bounty are we? Trading a monks life for money is a ticket for perdition my friend."

"Well after all they say that money talks, where ever you go."

"I don't know what your business is here, but turn around and keep moving." The monk tells them.

 "No violence without good cause is that it? Charming however that is not one of my beliefs." Hidan says but then pulls his scythe in front of him. 

"This fire temple is the most famous shinobi temple in the Land of Fire. They say all of its monks wield a special power known as "The Gift of the Sages" especially this one worth 30 million. He is an elite ninja who was one of the Guardian Shinobi 12. That protected the ruler of the Land of Fire. The proof is there on his waist cloth, the fire emblem."

"Really, Guardian Shinobi huh?"

"Take care Hidan, or you'll be sorry."

"Give me a break, not that again! Shut up Kakuzu!" Hidan says before breaking into a sprint towards the monk, dragging his scythe behind him.

"Move it!"

Chiriku does a hand sign and a, I don't know how to explain it really. It looks like a lady with her real hands in her lap, with other hands going above her. Then some weird sound plays, it sounds like people singing. 

"Wh- what is that?!"

"I don't care what is, just keep pressing attack!"

Kakuzu goes to punch Chiriku with a black fist but it is blocked so he goes for another hit but this time the lady behind Chiriku turns into an angry looking red man who punches Kakuzu multiple times.

Hidan goes at him. "Now you're mine!" He shouts, just to be punched out of the way  like Kakuzu.

They both fall to the ground, and the crowd of monks behind them goes wild.

That isn't enough to kill them, unless they got soft while I have been gone.

The angry man turns back into the nice woman. "May your soul rest in peace," he says as he closes his eyes.

"I can't just lie here and let a self-righteous monk say nice things over me. Jashin would never approve. Now i'm mad, hey Kakuzu, since this one is no jinchuuriki I can go ahead and follow my rules as usual right?"

"Do what you like with him, but remember his head is worth 30 million to me. So don't go overboard, I want him recognizable." Kauzu says as Hidan stands up, leaning on his scythe.

"Trading a human beings life for money, that's no way for people to behave! Disgusting! Stay out of it Kakuzu! Leave this one to me!" Hidan says as he runs towards Chiriku.

"Chiriku of The Fire Temple will never be defeated by the likes of you! Raigo, thousand hands strike!" Chiriku and then it skips time a little and it shows the temple now, its now just a pile of ruble.

Hidan is sitting in the middle of his diagram made of blood with a spear in his chest, doing his prayers. Then the vision goes dark and I open my eyes.

*** Real world ***

I must tell this to Lady Tsunade right away! I don't want to bust my fellow Akatsuki but this was a few days ago.

I ran towards Lady Tsunade and went right to her room, and busted through her doors without knocking.

"Semasu, what is it?"

"A few days ago I had a dream where I was being crushed by a pile of ruble!"

"Don't we all have that dream at some point in our shinobi lives?"

"I know, but I thought nothing less of it. Today I was meditating, trying to see if I can actually see the future. Then I saw two Akatsuki members attacking the Fire Temple! I don't know if this was from the past or future, but I know it will happen if it hasn't already." I say and their eyes go wide

"Are you a hundred percent sure on this Semasu?" Just when she asked this a monk burst through the door. 

"The fire temple has just been attacked!" He shouted and then got down on one knee.

"Who attacked?"

"I don't know who."

"They got every monk, even Lord Chiriku."

"I see they even got Chiriku."

"I was out on patrol when the temple was hit, by the time I got back they were all-"

"It must be members of the Akatsuki. They're probable scouring every inch of the Land of Fire for jinchuuriki. Finally, they've returned." Shizune looks at me.

"Do they know about you?"

"No one does, I killed everyone who did and burned the evidence. Only us in the Leaf know." I say and she nods.

"Here they are going to stay. We have twenty new platoons ready, tell them the go. Semasu you are going too." She says and I nod and went to the roof where everyone eventually everyone showed up.

*********

I zoned out while Tsunade talked, I fought Hidan and Kakuzu. I'm better than them. I beat them before too. I was snapped back to reality.

"That's all I have to say." Tsunade said and snapped me back.

"If anyone has questions, now's the time." She says and I raise my hand.

"Semasu."

"Who's platoon will I be in?"

"Asuma's platoon." She says and Asuma raises a hand.

"Asuma?"

"Chiriku is a Guardian Shinobi 12, they would've had gone passed him. Was he not there or something?"

The monk and I are standing side by side. We both look down.

"Lord Chiriku faced the two Akatsuki all on his own, but unfortunately." He didn't have to say anything more. Asuma looked as if he was just hit by a rock, totally stunned and his eyes grew wide.

"For the pride of the Hidden Leaf and the safety of the Land of Fire, we must not allow them to roam free! I want to learn what their motives are but be warned, these enemies are formidable. Do not allow them to leave the Land of Fire, I want them stopped, no matter what it takes! That's it! You have your orders! GO!" Tsunade shouts and all 20 platoons jump away, off to their destinations. 

Asuma lead the way to the fire temple.
