Jiraiya looked over at Bee, "tell me do you ever stop rapping?"
Killer Bee just looked at him like he was stupid, "why would I quit, when my raps a hit."
Jiraiya just shook his head before looking back at his apprentice, he was just in time to see Naruto turning back. The red chakra began to recede, first from his face and then continuing downwards. As it did the Toad Sennin could not hold in a grimace, his apprentice looked like he had his skin peeled. The young teens entire body was an angry red color, blood was leaking out of many spots where the skin had been completely burned away. Some area's were so bad that Jiraiya could see Naruto's muscles and organs, it definitely looked painful and judging by Naruto's hoarse screams it was more than just that.
Finally Naruto was back to normal, or at least as normal could be when in such bad condition. The blond dropped to the ground as exhaustion and pain took him, thankfully Yugito was right there and managed to catch him before he could hit the dirt. She sat down and gently placed Naruto's head in her lap, tears of worry running down her face as she stroked the blonde hair, which had started to grow back. Soon the rest of the boy's body began to heal, normal and healthy looking skin began forming on him. Crawling up his body making it almost seem alive, as steam began to sprout from the other wounds that were healing.
Naruto opened his eyes and saw Yugito's tear streaked face over him, despite his hand feeling like a two hundred ton weight the blond managed to lift it up. He placed it on Yugito's face and began to stroke her cheek with his thumb, making the blond woman purr and lean into it. "A-are you… ok Yugi-chan?" asked Naruto in a voice that sounded as if it had not been used in years.
"B-Baka," Yugito said as she grabbed Naruto's hand with her own, "I'm t-the one who should be asking that."
Naruto smiled as his eyes began to close, "Sorry to worry you, I'll be fine… after some… some rest." The blond Shinobi's eyes closed as his hand became limp, making Yugito hold his hand a little tighter to her face as he fell asleep.
Jiraiya breathed out the sigh of relief he had been holding in, he knew that they had been lucky. Had it not been for Naruto's incredible will power and his feelings for Yugito, the Toad Sennin was sure that things would have ended much worse. He would have to make sure Naruto knew to be more careful when using Kyuubi's chakra from now on.
Flashback end…

"That was extremely reckless of you Jiraiya!" Tsunade said as a scowl marred her features.
"I know! I know ok!" Jiraiya said, "I should have been more careful and checked the seal before messing with it. But I didn't think the repercussions would be that bad, I thought it would just allow Naruto to access more of Kyuubi's power."
Tsunade sighed, "is there any danger of something like that happening again?" she had to be sure that Naruto would be alright, both for his sakes and whatever team he was on a mission with.
"It hasn't happened since that first time," Jiraiya said, "even when he does use Kyuubi's power he does a pretty good job controlling it. Right now he can go up to six tails and still retain control, however each tail is twice as difficult to gain control over then the last one. Still I wouldn't worry, he has too loose all forms of emotional control in order for him to go berserk and that's a lot harder to do now that he has matured."
Tsunade sighed, "very well, but next time be more careful ok?"
"Don't worry I won't be doing that again," Jiraiya said.
The rest of the time the two team mates sipped their drinks in peace.

"Man I love boos!"
Naruto rolled his eyes as Kiba walked around the Akamichi owned restaurant with two bottles of sake in hand, the dog ninja was already drunk. Who would have thought that Kiba was a light weight, Naruto snickered to himself as he looked around at the people there. The Konoha eleven had decided to come here and celebrate Naruto's return and recent promotion, allowing Naruto to talk with some of his friends. Over in the corner of the room Naruto spotted Shikimaru, Shino and Neji all of whom seemed to actually be sober. He made his way over to them, "yo! Shino, Shika, Neji how are you guys doing?"
"We are doing pretty well Naruto-san?" Shino said as he looked at the blond through his goggles, at least that was what it looked like, it was hard to tell with Shino.
"I take it these last four years have been good then?" Naruto asked as he took a small sip of his sake.
"Nothing too troublesome has happened if that's what you mean," Shikimaru said in his lazy drone.
"It has been pretty quiet without you in Konoha," Neji put in as he picked at his food.
