Chapter 23 Edited

Chapter 23 edited

It was the day of Naruto's birthday and Lucy was running around making sure everything was ready, she had asked Iruka to distract him because it was a Saturday and he had no academy classes on. Lucy was currently baking his cake, she's spent all day trying to make it look like a bowl of ramen, with the chopsticks dangling noodles out of the bowl. Placing it into a carrier bag once she'd finished she started making her way over to Naruto's place with an extra bag of decorations and candles, she had to break in through Naruto's window because the door was locked and she didn't have a key. Lucy's lucky that Naruto is stupid or she'd never have gotten in. By the time everything was ready Lucy sent one of her tigers that decided to be a messenger, to Iruka to tell him that everything was all set. Iruka sent her one back saying that he'll send Naruto home after he's finished eating so Lucy closed the curtains and turned off the lights to wait for Naruto to return home. After an hour of waiting Lucy grew worried so she went to go find Iruka and saw him walking out of a weapons store, "Iruka wait," Lucy called out and ran to a stop in front of him,

"Ahh, Lucy I was just about to drop by to give Naruto his present. I didn't want to before in case it ruined the surprise. What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be with Naruto?" Iruka said to her and Lucy grew even more concerned,

"You mean he's not with you?" Iruka's smile turned into a frown as she slowly shook his head,

"I'll look around to training grounds and in the forest," Lucy announced quickly thinking,

"I'll search the town," Iruka said and they both ran off to look for the blonde, birthday boy.

Lucy was running through the forest and heightened her senses, hearing shouts from in the distance she headed in that direction. Jumping from tree to tree, through the thick forest, avoiding branches and leaves. Lucy finally made it to where the endless shouting was coming from and was she saw brought tears to her eyes.

Naruto was on the ground all bloodied up and bruised, people that she recognised from the village were surrounding him. Throwing things and shouting horrible words. Lucy could hear her heart thumping, feeling the vibrations all the way to her ears then when she saw a man grab a whip she, her body moved on its own. She threw herself on Naruto and took the hit, her back stung and she felt a breeze on her stinging wound. The area became quiet and Naruto slightly looked up to see Lucy looking down at him,

"Are you okay, Naruto?" Lucy asked quietly, trying not to show him that she was in any pain when he nodded his head, his eyes full of surprise and wonder and she relaxed. Lucy stood up and took a deep breath, never had she felt such anger towards anyone, not even Orochimaru. Lucy clenched her fists to prevent her from lashing out and she turned around to face the crowd that was still staring at her. They all gasped when they saw her face, or more specifically her eyes. They were glowing a bright gold, her pupils had turned into stars and she had a vein at the side of each eye clearly visible. Lucy, however, did not notice this, she was too angry.

"What do you all think you're doing?" Lucy demanded of the crowd, some of them flinched at her tone but none of them looked regretful of what they've done, "I asked you a question," she yelled out when no one answered her. The man that had attempted to whip Naruto stepped forward,

"We were getting our revenge, why did you get in the way?" He yelled angrily, his spit flying everywhere and everyone nodded in agreement with his words. All this did was make her angrier,

"What exactly did he do so wrong? Huh? What could a little boy possibly do to all of you?" Lucy questioned by this point Naruto had passed out in exhaustion,

"That demon took our families from us, it took our loved ones and it needs to be killed," the man yelled out and everyone started to get loud again and yell at Naruto who couldn't hear anything because he's still out cold,
