return

[Blade]

that was when I was young you will have to try harder not I have become much stronger since then*he readies his tail*

[Uzumaki Naruto]

* he smiles * as have I ...* naruto forms a rasengan in his hand it has element fuutonn in the rasengan he shoves it into the sand beneath his feet causing a massive sand storm*

Fukken-* does a set of hand signs on his should * air vacuum technique from a random spot within the blinding sand storm the blast impacts it's shell at a very high velocity *

[Blade]

*the scorpion isnt effect at all by the sandstorm and seems to be minmally effected by the wind element attacks as it strikes out with its tail using the blinding sand storm to his advantage striking at naruto*

[Uzumaki Naruto]

* he smirks as he grabs the scorpions tail that tried to attack him naruto flings him like a toy into the air * tell me scorpion king... Why not show zaka the the elders... You obviously would work better together with him trained.. Your still impulsive and easily angered * naruto almost instantly launches a windmill rasenshuriken at him in mid air upon impact of his shell it cracks slightly and launches him even further *

[Blade]

*the scorpion king laughs until he hits the ground* maybe I will show him but you made a mistake im not near as impulsive as you think*naruto's arm begins to go numb starting at the hand where he touched his tail*

Zaka))*watches him and what he is down sitting down in a cross legged fashion*

Scorpion king)) now naruto do you still want to try something?

[Shinku no Yami]

*Back at the raman shop, inside the back room, the girl can be seen standing at the sink, wiping out a dirty cup with a wet wash cloth. She continues to do this for well over the amount of time it should take to clean it out. A close up of her face, where her eyes are cut off and only her nose and mouth are visible, would show a slow evil smirk play upon her lips. Zaka's body should start feeling very sluggish and numb about now, from the substance that was in his ramen that he'd just ingested. The woman would then speak, in a voice that was hers, yet not her own - two separate voices at the same time.*

"Naive fools. That was too easy."

[Uzumaki Naruto]

* smirks * your venom is nothing my body has become immuned to your venom * the tingling in his arms go away * but the poison that I just injected you with is much more powerful his body seizes up and collapses in the sand * that poison was made special for you after our battle I was poisoned in bed for weeks ..

[Shinku no Yami]

(Lol, ironically Zaka's just been poisoned as well, by a third party. I didn't even see that you guys were fighting with it too. This will work out nicely as he's less likely to suspect someone back in the Sand did it, and that it might be from someone here or the fight)

[Blade]

*the scorpion laughs* still a resourceful young lad I see well this may be your fate though Zaka over there has already passed out from the poison he consumed and you too shall pass out soon if I could move I could take you both to my realm though you will not be taught Zaka will so he can help more next time and after he is trained I wish to face you and gamachiki together against myself and Zaka but you must help me to move so I can get us out of here before your agressor can find Zaka because I sense he may be in danger and my elders can heal him fully

[Uzumaki Naruto]

Naruto smiles as you wish * naruto then does a hand sign and all three of them are transported to the world of the scorpion sage ...*

[Shinku no Yami]

*Little do Naruto and friends know the nature that this poison works. Unlike all other poisons, this is a fast-acting poison that targets one and just one part of the body - the brain. Not only does it make it the quickest killer by attacking the most vital part of the body, but as brain tissue is irreplaceable, the damage is harder to repair, nigh impossible, once it is inflicted.*

"It shouldn't be long now."

[Blade]

as they arrive the scorpion king is instantaneously revived and fixed and the sages immediately get to work curing Zaka* what happened to him why is he here and why is he poisoned

Scorpion king) im not sure I was distracted having a little fun with naruto again *he chuckles* but I am sure you two can heal him up just fine right

Elders) yes without a problem we should be able to afterall we are used to working with the most potent poisons

[Uzumaki Naruto]

* he looks at zaka * I should go find out who poisoned him..

[Blade]

Scorpion king)) that would be very helpful

Elders))*already nearly done healing him*

((lol if only he wasnt the scorpion sage who uses neurotoxins that are the most powerful found because of his affinity for the scorpions and all that fun stuff and that the elders can cure any poison especially neurotoxin hahahahahhahaa lol woulda been harder for another type of poison))

[Shinku no Yami]

*Back at the ramen shop, a familiar face is enjoying a quiet meal in the Sand, while overhearing the most peculiar things from the girl in the back room, not to mention her voice. He arches an eyebrow, continuing to eat his ramen at a slower pace.*



Tsuihāku: "Hmm. That's... odd..."

[Uzumaki Naruto]

Naruto-appears back within the village wiith his eyes closed ... * someone is here... That wasn't here before...* he reads the newcomers chakra signal from afar * ...

Fukken- is it him naruto...
Naruto- idk let's go have a chat shall we * he walks towards the ramen shop again*

[Shinku no Yami]

*The woman continues to speak in her distorted voice.* "The poison should have killed Zaka by now. But even if not-"

*The woman cannot finish what she was about to say, because at that moment, she is tackled to the ground by Tsuihāku.*

Tsuihāku: "Okay, who are you? And what have you done to Zaka?"

*The girls eyes suddenly go wide with surprise or fright, hard to tell. A soft gasp escapes her lips as the glossy look over her eyes vanishes, returning her eyes to their normal life-filled look, before she passes out.*

[Uzumaki Naruto]

naruto- walks into the ramen shop looking at the man on the young women...* what happen here?

[Shinku no Yami]

*The man turns his head and quickly jumps off the woman, his hands in front of him for defense.* "Listen, this isn't what it looks like..." *He stops mid-sentence.* "... Naruto? How? You should be... no. You must just look like him. I'm sorry for staring."

[Uzumaki Naruto]

* he looks at the man * the one and only * he crosses his arms * if this isn't what it looks like then do explain what exactly it is..
