"Naruto Uzumaki... Me and You right now, right here.... You humiliated Sakura in front of the whole class and you had her scared..." Neji replied

"It wasn't my fault she was stupid enough to hit me after I specifically told her not to... Like I said before... I don't have time for this... I'm being nice enough to walk away and let bygones be bygones.. But your pushing me to my limits... Lets just walk away and forget this ever happened.."

Naruto and the others started to walk away. "What? You scared that you're gonna lose. You're  not strong enough to protect yourself. After I finish beating you up make sure you run to your daddy so he can beat you as well. Make sure he abuses you like he did that day you called him by his name." Naruto stopped in his tracks. He was angry, afraid, and shocked at the same time. How did Neji know about that? How did he know that Naruto was getting abused? How did he know anything that went on in his house? Shikamaru and Kiba didn't know what was going on. They didn't understand the situation anymore. They looked at Naruto and Sasuke who seemed to know what he was talking about."Sasuke.. What does he mean by that..? Is Naruto getting abused? Tell us..." Shikamaru stated

"No.. He's lying... Minato has never hit on Naruto... Never..." Kiba shouted. Kiba believed Minato was the good guy, that he was not capable of doing something so wrong.

Naruto's hands were in fist. His head was held down. You could see the tears falling from his face. "Naruto.... Sasuke... Say something... Don't just leave us hanging out in the blue like this.."

Naruto wiped his tears away and looked up at his two dumbfounded friends. "Yea.. Its true.... That's why you saw all the cuts and bruises on me that day... I've been living with Sasuke every since and I'm happy there. I feel like I'm at home there with him and Itachi. Yea its true that I got abused but what you didn't know is that Minato is in jail now. Thanks to Sasuke and Itachi.... I'm okay now... Yea I've grown more aggressive to people but right now is a whole different story because..... Now.... I protect myself.... and the ones I love and care for...." Naruto looks back at Neji "I protect the things that are precious to me... and the only people I live for got my back until the end... So Neji..." He smiles "Do you still want to fight?... I just realized my curfew is 10 and its only 4:30..."

Neji looks at Naruto and says"I'm in it to win it... Lets get this over with"

"Oh... we'll see who wins.."

Naruto gives his books and school things to Shikamaru and Kiba. Naruto walks away from his friends and towards Neji. Neji walks towards Naruto. They both meet and they fight. Neji had already pushed Naruto to the limit and he was furious. He actually wanted to kill Neji for knowing about his personal life. He wanted to know how he knew and how long he's known. Naruto threw a punch towards Neji chin but he dodged it. Neji hit Naruto in stomach. He fell. Naruto was struggling to get back up but he never gave up. When Neji turned his back, Naruto tripped him then jumped on top of him punching his face in. With every punch, there was more and more blood coming from Nejis nose and mouth. 

With the first punch, the blonde asked questions. "How do you know about what went on in my house?"

"I don't have to tell you anything." Neji replied with a grin "Daddy must've hated how you caused your mothers death huh..." He laughed

Naruto clenched his fist and threw another punch but Neji was able to push him off and gain ground. Jumping up to his feet, Naruto stared at Neji in surprise. This guy knew more than meets the eye. Naruto tackled Neji and continued to fight him. 

"Don't you EVER...(Punch).... EVER.....(punch).....talk about me...(punch).... or my friends.....(punch)... again...(punch).... If you EVER in you life....(punch).... talk about my past...(punch).... to anyone.....(punch).... I will make....(punch).... you wish...(punch)... you were dead...(punch).... Do you understand me...?"

Naruto stopped and got off of Neji. He just laid there not saying a word, a grin still going across his lips as he watched Naruto leave. Naruto looked at Sai and Sakura and smiled. He walked to Sai and wiped Neji's blood off his hand on his shirt. He walked away and walked back to Sasuke, Shika, and Kiba. They were all shocked. They looked at Naruto with amazement. They never knew he was that good of a fighter. "Can somebody tell me what in the bloody hell just happen...? Cause right now.... I'm in total denial of what I just saw..." Shikamaru asks...

"I'm with you there Shika.... Naruto just beat the crap out of Neji... The person who we've been protecting him from... Naruto just knocked him unconscious." Kiba adds on

"N-Naruto.... When did you learn to fight like that..?" Asked Shika

"I never knew I could. I guess my pain took over. All of my fears, anger, and confusion just jumbled up inside of me have been let out. I'm a new person. From today forward... I will protect everyone and everything closets to me. Everyone and everything I love including you guys."

"Well lets get home.. You've been fighting for about an hour and a half.." Sasuke said with little to no emotion

Naruto shook his head and they all walked home. First Shikamaru, then Kiba. Last stop was the Uchiha residents. When they entered, they saw Itachi getting ready to go to work. "So where have you guys been?" "Sasuke was waiting on me to-" Naruto got cut off."We were walking Shikamaru and Kiba home.''

"There's no point in lying. Naru's hands are covered in blood. Did you fight?"

"Yes nii-san, he fought."

"Are you okay Naruto?"

"Yes... I actually won the fight... Neji is-"

"Wait... You fought Neji.... Neji Hyuuga?"

"Yea... And I won."

"I'm proud of you... Don't just get into fights though okay."

"Okay... But I need to tell you something.."

"Okay what is it...?"

Naruto took a deep breathe and looked at Itachi."I don't know how or when... but Neji knows about my past and what Minato did on the day I first moved in."

"Okay... This can probably help with the case.. Ill talk to him when I have another chance... Maybe in the morning.. Well I'm heading out... See you guys tomorrow.."

"Okay Itachi... See ya!" Both Naruto and Sasuke said in unison.

~~~~2 Hours Later~~~~

Naruto and Sasuke had settled down and are sitting in the living room watching some TV. Naruto picked out a movie to watch but fell asleep in the middle of it. His head fell on Sasukes shoulder. Sasuke took Naruto and picked him up bridal style. He laid him on the bed. Sasuke turned around to go to his dresser to get some pajamas and he put them on. When he turned back around, he saw Naruto wide awake and looking at him. Naruto got out of bed and walked past Sasuke. He went to dresser and got his pajamas and put them on. Naruto didn't feel the need to put on a shirt so he didn't. He laid down and watched Sasuke. 'I wonder does he think of me the same way I think of him?' Naruto thought to himself. Sasuke looked at Naruto to see a tiny hint of redness in his cheeks. Naruto tried hard to keep his cool and push the blush back down but it was hopeless. 'I wonder does he think of me the same way I think of him?' Sasuke thought to himself. Naruto and Sasuke shook the thought out of their heads and laid down beside each other. They said goodnight but neither of them fell asleep.It was Friday and they didn't have school on Saturdays. Itachi shouldn't be back until that evening and they had all day to sleep and not be disturbed.
