Allies in summonings

Naruto clones were grabbed by Gaaras sand, the **** of which was making them explode out of existence almost as soon as they were created. The real Naruto was doing his best to avoid getting directly close to the red-haired suna ninja. lest he end up like his clones. 'Damn it, every second this guys gets worse and worse! How am I gonna get the edge over this guy?', Naruto thought to himself as another arm of sand almost grabbed him.

"Uzumaki!!! I will kill you!", Gaara's twisted voice said as Naruto dodged yet again- It seemed that Gaara wasn't going to give Naruto any chance to attack, even as he himself threw sand with near perfect accuracy. Only Nartos last second dodging was keeping him from wearing shreds of clothing as Gaaras Sand Shuriken kept flying at him, cutting into the trees he used as cover.

"Damn it, I'm getting tired of this!", Naruto yelled as he made his favoite handsign, determined to finish this fight here. Now, Naruto focused more chakra into it then ever before and a huge cloud of smoke erupted into the area around them. Gaara stood still as he looked around through the almost blankening cloud he called out. "Uzumaki Naruto!!! Are you going to run again? You're not getting away from us, Uzumaki!", Gaara yelled as he heard the sound of footsteps all around him.

"Running is the last thing I'm doing!", Narutos voice called out, cutting through the smoke as it started to clear with the wind, making Gaara's eyes widen at the new sight: Hundreds of Narutos like back in the stadium, all looking at him with that same confident grin, were surrounding him. "I promised your sister that I would help you, and a Uzumaki Naruto does not break a promise ever!", Naruto yelled as his clones seemed ready to jump at a seconds notice.

"Hehe, help? You're far too weak for that, Uzumaki. How can you help when you're about to die?!". Gaaras crazed laughter filled the clearing as the Narutos kept on grinning. "Because I have something that can beat your sand!", Naruto voice called out from behind Gaara. As he turned to face the voice, his eyes widened in surprise. Naruto had snuck behind him in the smoke and had used the clones as a diversion as he prepared his ultimate attack, which was inches from him now!

"Rasengan!!!", Naruto yelled as he connected the attack to Gaaras sand covered body, drilling through the back of it and pushing the sand covered ninja forwards in a painful show of ****. The surprise attack had left Gaara **** as Narutos clones took their turn. Hundreds of fists and kicks connected with Gaaras body pushing, him higher and higher into the air as the Narutos yelled "U-Zu-Ma-Ki!", with each push higher into the air before Gaara was **** face towards the sky.

The sight of even more Narutos greeted him as their kicks pushed him to the ground in a free fall. "Naruto Barrage!", Naruto yelled as the attack finished and Gaaras sand-covered form fell to the ground hard.

As Gaara opened his eyes, he saw the Narutos looking down at him from the trees with a looks of confidence and caution as the real Naruto rose his voice. "Like I said, I won't give up. And you're going to understand that, even if I have to kick your ass all the way back to your village for Temari-chan!", Naruto yelled as they jumped towards him again, ready to end this fight in this attack.

"No, I can't lose! I won't lose to you, Uzumaki Naruto!!!", Gaara yelled as the sand around him exploded outwards towards Naruto and his clones, destroying all of them and pushing Naruto back away from him. As Naruto finally managed to land on a tree after flying a great distance from Gaara, his eyes snapped back at his opponent.

Looking up from his new positon on the limb, Naruto's mouth hung open a moment as he stared at what was standing in the place that the redhead had been just moments before. It looked like a giant monster, made of sand with strange markings over its entire body. "Th... that's what's sealed in Gaara?", Naruto muttered in a bit of awe, shock and fear all rolled into one. "That's huge!".

Naruto was so occuppied with his opponents new form, he missed as Gaaras sand began to slither like a predator to Naruto, and when Naruto realized it, his legs were already covered in sand and the rest of his body was doing the same. "I can't believe you made me take this form, Uzumaki! But now, this is over!", Gaara yelled as Naruto struggled against the sand.

"Damn, how am I going to get out of this?", Naruto thought to himself before realizing what he needed to do as he started making hand signs, even as the sand covered his entire body. "Sabaku Kyū (Sand coffin)!", Gaara growled in excitement as he felt victory in his grasp before saying, "Sabaku Sōsō (Sand Funeral)!!!".

"Kuchiyose no Jutsu (Summoning Jutsu)!" Narutos voice called out from the sand before it exploded outwards, surprising Gaara as a huge figure took the sands spot, crushing the trees of the forest as it appeared before the crazed Suna shinobi.

"What the.... you again! Didn't I tell you not to summon me unless it was important?", a huge red toad grumbled in an annoyed tone as Naruto stood atop of him. "Sorry, Boss Gamabunta, but I need your help with this! Take a look!", Naruto said, pointing towards Gaara as he grinned. After looking at Narutos opponent, Gamabunta asked "And why should I help you fight this?".

"Ah, come on pops, help Naruto out!", a new voice called, getting Narutos and Gamabuntas attention as the small orange from earlier hopped up on Narutos head. "Gamakichi? What are you doing here?", Gamabunta asked. "I came out earlier to see what was going on, and Naruto here saved me when that guy tried to bully me!", the small orange frog said in reply, making Gamabunt frown.

"He did what?", Gamabunta growled dangerously as he looked at the Shukaku-possessed Gaara. "Fine then! Naruto, I guess I'm going to help you out after all, to settle the score with this scum!", Gamabunta yelled as he stared at the opponent before them.
