Silent laughter

False security

*Naruto's POV

'It's on' I thought as I punched Sasuke in the nose

"How did he move that fast" I heard Sakura exclaim in surprise. Kakashi just stood there silenced.

"The hell was that dumb ass" Sasuke held as he held his bleeding nose "How did you do that?" He asked pissed off. I dropped my foot back into an attack stance and gripped my kunai tighter. Sasuke growled at me as he pulled out of his own kunai and he activated his Sharingan

"Can't believe you're making me use this?" He said "What have you been doing this whole time holding back" He growled as he ran at me. I played with him for a bit blocking his attacks being on the defensive. I felt my face wide open for an attack on purpose to bait him. He smirked as he took the bait. I teleported behind him. As she stumbled forward I kicked him down to the ground.

"Stop messing around," I said to him as I walked away. I heard him yell as he flipped over weaving hand sign.

"Fire style: Fireball Jutsu," He said as fire shot out of his mouth and danced towards me. I formed a Rasengan and drove it into the fireball. The rotation from the Rasengan dispersed the flames.

'my turn' I thought as I reached into my pouch and pulled out my last remaining kunai

'not enough for anything too impressive but I think I can at least use 2 step' I thought as I jumped into the air and threw my kunai in a circle around Sasuke. I teleported to each one of the creating a wall of lightning around Sasuke. He spun in circles trying to keep up with me, but it was obvious he was struggling even with the help of his Sharingan. I stopped and I set the energy building up behind me flying at Sasuke. As the lightning arced towards his back it became obvious that he wasn't going to be able to dodge it. I just stood there as he spun around to see yellow streaks coming towards him.

'Damn I can't let him die here' I thought remembering how I needed help to get out of here. I teleported to him grabbing him and teleporting away. Lightning shook the ground making a big cloud of smoke. Sakura began rushing towards the billowing cloud but stopped once she saw me throwing Sasuke to the ground after I teleported him.

"Naruto... Where did you learn the flying thunder god," Kakashi asked as he walked over

"Nowhere" I lied knowing I can't talk about my father here for some reason "Wait how do you know about it". Kakashi didn't speak for a moment as he looked around to see if anyone was in earshot of us. Sakura was overhealing Sasuke from his injuries from our fight

"That Jutsu was used by my old sensei," He said

"My father," I said. He winced at the name but he nodded his head

"You must not use that Jutsu or people may believe that you may be in contact with him" He warned me as he began to walk away

"My father is still alive?" I asked him. Kakashi nodded as he walked away.

'So he is alive' I thought as Kakashi dismissed us from the training grounds after he sparred with Sakura and won. I walked home avoiding everyone I knew. I walked into my house not remembering that Kushina was here.

"Hey Naruto," She said as she was putting her shoes on. I stood there a bit shocked as I saw her in ninja gear with a chunin vest.

"Hi," I said not wanting to be rude

"I am heading off on a mission, but we can have dinner together if you want," she said with a fake smile. I knew that smile so having dinner with her wasn't an option. I grumbled something that sounded like ok as I finished taking my shoes off and walked over to the kitchen and set the table. A few minutes later I had a bowl of curry in front of me.

"Thank you for the food," I said in a low voice

"No problem sweaty," She said with a smile. I hated when she called me sweaty because it made me feel so happy but then I remember that this is all fake. We ate in silence until I finished my bowl and stood up to wash my dish and go upstairs but she called my name telling me to sit back down.

"We need to talk," She said in a low voice

"We have nothing to talk about," I said as I stood up. She stood up with me and glared at me. I sighed as I took a seat again.

"Why have you been acting strangely lately you haven't been smiling, and Kakashi came by before you got her and told me that you almost killed Sasuke! I know that you don't like him that much but isn't that going too far" She said. I just stared at the table

"Naruto please talk to me," She said as I heard her voice break a little. I looked up as I started to tear up. I looked at her and I felt a connection but I forced myself to look away again.

'It's not real, It's not real' I kept telling myself as I forced myself to smile

"Nothing is wrong," I told her as I struggled to keep my smile. I know she didn't buy it but just then there was a knock on the door.

"I have to go I don't know when I will be back, but... Please be careful" She said as she wiped the tears from her eyes. I nodded as I walked upstairs. I went to bed with tears in my eyes. Why does it hurt so much when I push myself away from her. She is fake. This whole world is fake, but do I want it to be real. I pushed these thoughts out of my head remembering that Kakashi said we had the day off.

'good I'll try to find out where my father is and what's going on her' I thought as I rolled over to go to sleep. Darkness overcame me and I fell into a brief dreamless sleep

*Outside of the limited Tsukuyomi

"He knows that it's a fake," Zetsu said as he walked over to Madara staring into an orb.

"Yes we couldn't create an exact replica of our world, but soon enough he will get attached to this world. I still made it with him in mind. He is already in turmoil on whether or not he wants to stay or leave" He said as the orb he was staring into lost it's color and fell limp in his hands

"Now we just need to get his body out of the leaf then we can extract the nine tails," Madara said as he walked off the bridge

"But you said-" Sasuke began to say but Madara cut him off

"Yes, you will get to fight him in time. We need to break his mind and body to make it easier to extract the beast. We have limited members left to extract the beast so it needs to be as painless as possible for us" He said as he walked inside of a cave "Until then are you ready" He asked Sasuke as he lied down on a table

"Yes," Sasuke said as he handed Madara a pair of eyes.

"Then let the surgery begin"
