INSANE

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto…although like many others I wouldn’t mind

Warnings: Yaoi, violence, sexual themes, blah blah blah, those who have read my stories before should have an idea, and those who haven’t…well, have fun learning what I’m like ^ ^

This is being written for makacatori…so the idea is not mine, I’m just typing it ^ ^

Naruto sighed, running his hand through his hair as he glanced at all the people glaring at him, ‘why did I even bother to come out today, I don’t have anything to do anyway’ he thought. Suddenly a hand came and put itself on his shoulders; at first he ignored it thinking it was just one of the ‘phantoms’

“Naruto?” he looked behind him to see Neji,

“Oops, sorry Neji, guess I was just lost in thought” he said, ‘this isn’t good, these ‘phantoms’ are making me lose touch with reality’ Naruto shook his head,

“So what’s up?”

Neji shifted slightly, crossing his arms over his chest, “I was wondering if you felt like getting some”

“Naruto-kun” a voice interrupted, Naruto turned around to see Itachi,

“Hey, what brings you here?” Naruto asked with a grin

“Nothing really” he stated, “Hyuuga” he gave a nod in Neji’s direction,

“Uchiha” he nodded back, eyes narrowed, “if you have no business with either of us, I was about to take Naruto to get some ramen”

“Ramen!” Naruto perked up, “Yay! Let’s go already” he grabbed Nejis’ hand dragging him. Itachi quickly caught up,

“You don’t mind if I tag along do you Naruto-kun” Itachi questioned, smirking when Naruto shook his head.
-------------------------------------------------------------

“Hey Ayame, where’s the old man?” Naruto greeted as the three sat down on the stools,

“Naruto-kun” she greeted smiling, “good to see you, my father’s sick, but he should be ok in a day or two” she paused, “well, aren’t you going to introduce me to your friends?”

“Oh, that’s right, this is Hyuuga Neji” he waved his hand towards him and Neji gave a nod, “and this is Uchiha Itachi” once again waving his hand towards him and Itachi gave a nod of his own,

“Don’t mind them, they don’t talk much”

Ayame nodded, “well, what can I get you?”

“I’ll just have a bowl of miso ramen” he looked at the other two, “what do you feel like?”

“Beef”

“Shrimp”

Where the two short answers they gave, Ayame nodded, “alright then, I’ll be right back with your food”

As soon as she left, Naruto sighed, putting his head on top of his hands,

“Anything the matter, Naruto-kun”

Naruto looked to his right, and gave a small smile, “no I’m ok, just a bit tired from training” he lied. Itachi looked at him a bit longer, before looking up slightly at Neji,

“If you’re sure”

Neji quietly watched the exchanging, nodding as he rose his eyes to meet with Itachis’ who nodded back, the meaning clear, ‘Naruto’s lying”

Lost in his own thoughts, Naruto paid no attention to the transaction that just occurred, ‘what do they want from me…all they ever say is learn, learn…but what do they what me to learn and why. They weren’t always there…were they?’ he questioned himself, eyes widening in remembrance

Flashback

“Someone touched me, no one was there though” Haya paled as she heard this

“The hands that touched you…were there voices too” she kept her voice light, he shook his head, and she sighed…

End Flashback

‘Did she know? She paled, she asked if there were voices…she had to have known, but why would she not tell me? That’s right though, it seemed to stop after that, but then it came back when Kaa-san left, could she have done something that made it disappear?’

He jumped, when he felt something poke him, tensing, before he realized that it was Neji, “Hm?”

Neji gave him a worried look, “your food’s here, we’ve been trying to get your attention for a bit, are you sure there’s nothing wrong?”

Naruto shook his head, grinning, “Nope I’m fine, just tired” he quickly turned his head and shoveled ramen into his mouth, it was his usually way of eating ramen, but this time it served a purpose, after all he couldn’t answer questions if his mouth was full, right.

Abruptly arms wrapped around him and hands grabbed him, making him choke before swallowing, he looked behind him, nothing, and yet he could still feel the arms around him, the hands gripping at his throat, he couldn’t breathe, but where were the voices? There were always voices now. “Why don’t you learn” there they are, learn what though, then silence and the hands and arms were gone, he breathed in deep and a bit shaky, ‘w-what was that’

“Naruto? Are you ok?”

He looked up, ‘did they not notice, was it in his head?’ he slid back, almost falling off the stool,

“S-sorry, I have to go” and he ran off quickly, leaving his ramen still there, full except, for the one bite he had taken. His abrupt departure leaving a startled Ayame and a worried Neji and Itachi.
------------------------------------------------------

Naruto continued to run, ignoring everything and everyone around him, ‘why was this happening to him, why didn’t his Kaa-san ever say anything to him if she knew…was it because he hadn’t heard voices, what if he had’

Unable to keep it in any longer, he fell to the ground with a sob; he hadn’t cried in so long, he tried to stop the tears from flowing down his face, making him cough as the tears freed themselves violently. Shuddering there on the ground, he had no idea were he was, he tried to stand, only to fall again and again.

‘I can’t take this much longer; I can’t take this any longer’

His vision began to turn black as he struggled to get air into his lungs, distantly he felt a hand rubbing his back, he tried to see who it was

‘Kaa-san?’ he thought before blackness overcame him.
