You fell in love with Naruto, but he didnβt feel the same. Narutoβs heart was set on Sakura. She was undeniably beautiful.
Everything took a drastic turn during a mission that went horribly wrong. Naruto, in a fit of uncontrolled rage, had slipped into his Four-Tails transformation. A dark red chakra cloaked his body like a second skin. His eyes glowed an eerie crimson, pupils slitted like a beastβs. His whisker marks deepened, and his once friendly face twisted into something feral, almost unrecognizable. His chakra tails lashed out, each movement violent and unpredictable.
You stood beside Sakura, watching as Naruto got out of control. His snarls echoed through the trees as his protective instincts took over, focusing on Sakura. He moved to shield her from an unseen threat, claws slicing through the air with terrifying speed. His sharp claws struck you. The pain was immediate and overwhelming, made worse by the immense chakra surging through the wound. It felt like fire burning beneath your skin.
As quickly as the chaos began, it ended. Naruto collapsed, unconscious from the effort of the transformation. The damage had been done. You cradled your injured arm, the pain throbbing with each passing moment.
The next day, Naruto was back to training as if nothing had happened. He darted from tree to tree, unaware of the storm he had caused the previous day. You were sitting on the trunk of a tree, clutching your injured arm. The last thing you wanted was for him to see you like this.
Suddenly, Naruto spotted you and quickly jumped down, landing in front of you. His eyes were filled with concern as he noticed the way you were holding your arm.
βIvy, are you okay? Whatβs that scratch?β he asked, his voice laced with worry.
βNothingβ¦ I got hurt by Orochimaru, but itβs okay,β you lied, forcing a small smile. Naruto seemed to accept your explanation, giving you a nod. Yamato approached from behind, his expression serious. He leaned in close to him, his voice a whisper.
βThe one that hurt Ivy so badlyβ¦ was you.β
