Chapter 87: Naruto's Heart Put To The Test

"This is a sacred place where those selected as jinchuuriki have long come to undergo a purification ceremony," Bee spoke as he, Naruto, Nia, and Yamato followed him to a structure with a stone head on it. "It's set up here so you can talk to your tailed beast in a special way inside this structure. You hear what I say?"

"Inside there?" Naruto questioned.

"Only those who have been chosen can make it to this place, put your head into this space," Bee instructed.

Everyone looked to the wide mouth stone head.

"If you're a good man, respected, no darkness in your heart detected, the door will open. You won't be rejected," Bee said.

"So... what happens if there is darkness in his heart?" Nia worriedly asked.

"If there's any darkness in his heart," Bee grimly turned to the group. "The doors will not part and the statue will bite off your head and tear you apart! Those headless statues we saw on your way here are past jinchuuriki, whose hearts weren't sincere!"

"Kya!" Nia yelped, turning to Naruto. "No! Absolutely not! You're NOT putting your head in that thing!"

"Nia's right," Yamato agreed as Naruto gulped and placed his hand on his throat. "This is too risky. Naruto, just use a shadow clone."

"Yes! Exactly!" Nia nodded. "Baby, I won't lose you to some damn statue."

"Yo, check yourself!" Bee raised his voice. "This is a sacred place, fool ya fool. Many generations of hidden cloud ancestors watch over it. Tricks like that won't work."

"My honeybun is not gonna-"

"Nia...!" Naruto narrowed his eyes. "The entire reason I came here is to learn how to control the power of the nine tails! I have to do this! I can't run away from it. It's important, ya know."

With that, the blond took a step forward but Nia stopped him.

"No, baby!" She put her hands on his chest. "It's too dangerous! There's too much riding on this!"

"Sweet Nia, move aside."

"Naruto, we have baby girls we have to take care of! What happens if the statue bites your head off?! Our baby girls will be without a father and I'll be without my hero!"

"That won't happen!" He told her.

"Baby!" Nia hugged him, tears surfacing in her eyes. "Don't baby, don't! I don't wanna lose you! I love you, honeybun! I love you!"

"Sweetie..." Naruto wrapped an arm around her with one hand and cupped her chin with the other, gazing deeply in her eyes. "I swear I'll be just fine, ya know."

"But-"

Softly, Naruto pressed his lips against the girl's, then, with a heavy heart, he moved Nia away and approached the statue, sweat beading down his temple.

He flipped his head slightly to give a reassuring smile to his girlfriend.

"I love you, Nia. I swear I do."

"Oh N-Naruto..." Nia sniffled, trying to keep herself together.

With that, Naruto turned to the statue and crouched down, putting his head in the open mouth of it.

I just have to believe in myself.

During those miserable first few moments, Nia and Yamato felt their eyes quivering and palms sweating. Nia felt like her heart would burst at any moment from how much she feared for her boyfriend's safety. She even began to pray he'd be all right.

Some seconds later...

"GUAAAAAAH!" Naruto started to scream as he seemingly struggled to get free from the statue.

"BABY!" Nia rushed over to the blond and her and Yamato grabbed Naruto by the waist, trying to pull him free.

When they did, it was revealed that Naruto's head was missing.

"KYAAAAAAA!" Nia screamed at the top of her lungs as her heart completely shattered at the sight. "BABY! BABY! PLEASE! PLEASE DON'T DO THIS TO ME! OH NARUTO! NARUTOOOOO!"

"I-It can't be!" Yamato's eyes were wide as dinner plates, quivering as he believed Naruto had been killed. "T-This can't be happening! N-Naruto, are you-"

Suddenly, Naruto's hands moved and pulled his jacket down, his head popping out of it.

"Only kidding!" He grinned. "There was just a switch inside the statue."

Immediately, Nia and Yamato turned into statues themselves.

"Hahaha, sorry couldn't help myself, ya know,"Naruto laughed.

"What's funny is that I did the same thing, too!" Bee admitted. "Those statues are just there to scare ya fools. Yeaaaah!"

"But I thought you told us this place was sacred?!" Yamato lashed out. "What was that?! Fools ya fools!"

"Taha, that was so funn-"

"O-OHHHHH N-NARUTOOO!" A sudden loud cry caught Naruto's attention as he turned to see Nia balling her eyes out.

"GYAH! S-SWEET NIA!" He immediately rushed over to her, wrapping his arms around her. "SWEET NIA! SWEET NIA! WHAT'S WRONG?!"

"I-I thought m-my hero was d-deaaad," She sobbed uncontrollably.

"Oh sweet Nia... I was joking. I was joking around, ya know?" Naruto kissed the top of her head.

Yamato sighed.

"Look what mess you caused, Naruto. You made the mother of your kids cry... just cause you thought it was funny to pretend your head got bit off."

"I couldn't resist. It was perfect timing," Naruto grinned.

He then felt his heart melt at the fact that Nia was so devastated at the thought of him dying.

"N-Naruto... I-I don't wanna l-lose you," Nia continued to cry.

"Oh sweetie... your hero... he's okay, he's okay. There's no reason for you to be so upset."

"T-The babies and I need you..."

"Yes, I know. Your hero is gonna be here to take care of you three, he promises," Naruto whispered, rubbing his hand down Nia's head.

"Nia, gotta get yourself together. Naruto's alright, he bout to put up a fight," Bee tried to get Nia to quit crying.

But it didn't work, as the girl continued to tremble and weep for ten long minutes.

"Damn... I really scared you to death," Naruto still comforted her. "Your hero's so, so sorry. He'll try not to scare you like that ever again, beautiful."

Nia whimpered.

"Give your hero a kiss," Naruto wiped Nia's tears away with his thumbs and slightly puckered his lips.

Nia reddened and pressed her wobbling lips onto her boyfriend's. For about a minute, they sweetly made out.

Suddenly, a wall slid open and in it was a pink astral plane, cloudy and nothing seemingly in it. The couple broke from their kiss and everyone stared in it.

Bee informed them that that that was where Naruto was going to face the Nine Tails and so the group headed in.

He asked for the key to his tentragram seal and Naruto complied.

"Baby, please be careful fighting the Nine Tails," Nia lightly gripped Naruto's jacket.

"Just wish your hero luck, okay? And don't worry yourself to death over him. He'll be just fine, ya know?" The blond cupped Nia's face and pressed his lips against her forehead.

Nia blushed and then kissed Naruto on the lips.

"Just do your best, honeybun," She told him.

"I will, beautiful."

And so, Naruto went off to fight the Nine Tails.
