"Talking."
Thoughts.
'Tailed beasts talking to their Jinchuuriki , or other Jinchuuriki, in the mindscape.'
If just one word is this way, then it's emphasized, or a quote-em-quote word (or 'insert word here')
'Jinchuuriki talking to their tailed beasts ,or other Jinchuuriki, in the mindscape.'
"Tailed beasts talking outside of the mindscape, or talking through their Jinchuuriki."
"Other Jinchuuriki talking in the mindscape, telepathic conversation."
(Quick A/N made while I was writing)
(Author-chan's comments) *She's only heard when in Majikku's POV, or No POV
"Jinchuuriki talking with their tailed beast's voice mixed with theirs."
Tailed beasts'/demon's thoughts
----------------------------

~No POV~


Pain. Absolute agony.
Then, rage. Unbelievable anger.

'NO KIT! DON'T!'

'I'm sorry, Kurama.'

A gentle smile.
Mixed tears.
Then, nothing.

------------Page Break----------- (Wow! New thing!)

(Quick note. This chapter takes place a month after the previous one)

~Naruto's POV~


I heard Kurama's voice, then darkness. But what happened before that? I... can't seem to remember. Maji was on edge, but I didn't know what for. We were fine, right? Wait, no... That's not it... I think... I used Kurama's power. The Nine Tails' Cloak.

No... That was much later. What happened even before that?

------------Page Break-----------

~No POV, Flashback(Kinda)~


"Look at these little things, boss!" a bandit said, picking Hinata and Fu by the hair.

"This one looks like she'll make a good slave." another one said, catching Majikku in a headlock.

"Over my dead body!" Heiwa exclaimed, kicking one in the head and punching the other in the mouth, pushing herself into a jump, then a sideways twirl in the air.

"WAH!" the second one yelled, loosing his grip on the young brown haired girl. Majikku jumped out of range of the man, then started hacking harshly. That, mixed with dry heaving. (Throwing up without anything coming out)

"Damn!" Ai exclaimed. "Mepuru get Maji out of here!"

"On it, sensei!" Mepuru exclaimed, jumping to her close friend's side.

"Protect her, alright?" Hariken said. Mepuru nodded, helping her, still hacking and dry heaving, friend up.

"Haku, maneuver four!" Zabuza yelled.

"Hai." Haku nodded. The two jumped into action, Zabuza drawing his sword, Haku pulling out senbon. (Senbon needles)

"We'll back you up." Heiwa said, both she and Itachi pulling out their swords and activating their Mangekyo Sharingan. They quickly advanced as well, Hariken, Gaara, Fu, Hinata, Sasuke, Roshi, Yagura, and Han following closely in pursuit. 

The twelve attacked vigorously, Heiwa using Amaterasu, Itachi putting a painful genjutsu on any who looked in his eyes, Hariken going full-on sword mode, Zabuza and Haku teaming up on a group of them, Gaara helping Sasuke get higher ground using his sand, in turn, Sasuke using Flame Phoenix Justu, Hinata using gentle fist, and Fu, Roshi, Han, and Yagura using their tailed beast modes.

They had a good chance, but these 'bandits' were well trained in the art ninjutsu. They fended off the attacks fairly. Though, half of them were injured or killed. But they still fought.

Half of our protagonists' group were injured too. Those people being Roshi, Hariken, Haku, Sasuke, Fu, and Itachi.

"Haku!" Zabuza yelled.

"I'm alright- Nng! Zabuza-san." the young boy said painfully.

"Itachi, Sasuke!" Heiwa exclaimed.

"We're- AGH!" Sasuke yelled out in pain.

"We've been better, but we'll live." Itachi cringed.

"Hariken!" Ai said, running over to him.

"I'll be fine." he breathed.

"Heiwa!" Hinata yelled. "Fu's not breathing!"

"What?!" Heiwa exclaimed, sprinting to her.

"Roshi's not either!" Yagura said, panicked.

"Calm down!" Heiwa said, her voice strict. "Bring the, here, along with any other injured people. Naruto, Gaara, Menma, Utakata, B, Yugito. You have to protect me while I heal them."

"Right!" said people said simultaneously.

The next ten minutes were a blur, but filled with fighting, screams of agony, and cries of anguish. Our protagonists were loosing.

Then, out of nowhere, a white-haired, 50-year-old sage joins the battle. Along with a 20-year-old-looking blonde with a... *ahem* very large bust. (Being put modestly -.-)

"PERVY SAGE?!" Heiwa, Naruto and Menma exclaimed.

"It is I, the great toad sa-" the man started, only to be punched of the toad and into the trees by a VERY FURIOUS Red Shadow. (See: Chapter 1 - Hinata Enters, They Think Naruto Lies)

"Where have you BEEN old man?!" Heiwa shouted.

"You do me proud." the blonde woman said, putting a hand on Heiwa's shoulder.

"Ahem. Sorry about that. Hey Tsunade. Tell Jiraiya to hurry up back here and then help me with our injured." the redhead said in a bored-ish tone.

"Will do. But first... Kakashi!" Tsunade shouted over her shoulder. Then, a silver haired Jonin with a Konoha headband walked out of the trees, a blonde haired girl with him.

"Kashi-nii! Naru-chan!" Heiwa exclaimed gleefully, hugging them both.

'Yo!' was the reply from Kakashi, while Naruko hugged Heiwa back. Heiwa gave the two a run-down on what was happening, when they were needed. The two nodded, then got to work; Naruko helping Heiwa and Tsunade with the injured, and Kakashi helping others fight.

Meanwhile, back up bandits showed up, and Menma had gotten hurt in the process, sending Naruto into a fit of rage. It began as a simple, small usage of Kurama's power. Then it got out of hand.

The blonde got to six tails before Jiraiya - with the help of Heiwa and the Nine Tailed Fox himself - was able to stop him. But in result, Jiraiya was majorly injured by Naruto's tailed-beast powers. (The scar he gets on his chest)

The fight ended soon after, with only a few of the bandits left. The remaining bandits retreated, taking their injured with them.

The other group wasn't much better. Half injured, a quarter almost dead, and only a handful of people still conscious. Those people helped the injured or passed out to an area nearby that was next to a river. There were logs already set up for sitting and a small campfire spot. Heiwa smiled softly as she remembered the night that she sang a song. Seven Years Old. (Who DIDN'T skip that filler chapter?)

The able-bodied people set up camp, got the injured treated, and started a campfire.
