AN: So
a few asked �what about the original storyline?� So I want to clarify, there is
no �true� story; this is a collection of conversations, in NO order, although
as you can see there are �mini� storylines mixed in. Sometimes I flow in a
straight line, and sometimes I get bored and move them around. Sorry, my mind
is a very confusing place�So now I going back to where I left off at CH 4� There is some fun having
Kyubi in Naru�s head� but mostly this is about Kyubi and Naruto�It actually is
a touching (sniff) chapter if you read�Next Ch will be in a week or two
(probably 2) and it will be �funny� random thoughts inspired by a reviewer.
After that more on the �Tale of Bijou, from Kyubi�s POV�, �Dreams 2� and
another bedtime story�
Disclaimer:
Oh yeah, I forgot, me no own Naru�if I did I would stop killing the best
characters�I mean come on�Jiraiya, Itachi and now Kakashi??? Did the censors
decided to kill the Ichi Ichi before it made it to the real world?
Conversations:
Ch 12 � The voice within�
His hands
were sweating, and he was beyond nervous. He looked at the seal in front of
him, and thought on all that had happened over the past few years. He wondered
how it had reached this point. How did it go from brief conversations at the
beginning, to taking advice on occasion, and to finally altering the seal,
which could possibly allow Kyubi to control him? Yet it seemed more right then
anything else he had ever done in his life. It was about the trust they had
built up over the years.
Trust!
Who would believe him if he was to say the one person he trusted the most in
this world was the demon who attacked his village 16 years ago, and was the
root cause of all his anguish? Yet that is what this came down to.
It
wasn�t there in the beginning. It had more been about two souls� who had no one
else, driven together out of a need to survive. With small conversations in
which the usual hatred and raging had been dimmed, as if they both had realized
they had no one else in the world except each other. Survival could form the
strongest bonds, and strangely their survival was dependent on each other. He
could not live anymore with out Kyubi in him. His body had adapted and now
required small amounts of demonic chakra to be in his system. Kyubi needed him
whole and safe in order to continue to exist.
He was
not a fool, Kyubi was the reason he had survived his harsh life. True his life
would have been different if the attack and subsequent sealing hadn�t taken
place. But he couldn�t picture a life or this world without him being
Jinchuuriki. 'Strange,' He thought, 'I hate
the word, but it describes me exactly. A human sacrifice for power, Jinchuuriki.'
He
hadn�t noticed that the trust was there at first, small and almost
non-existent, but forming in such a way that it was becoming the strongest bond
he had with any person in his life. The first time he suspected it was there
was when they had played a small prank on Itachi, he knew without a doubt it was there was when they had
rescued Gaara. Most thought the rage he had shown to be his own, but it had
also been the Kyubi�s. He had felt the demons rage that some pathetic humans
thought they could control the great beast by pulling them from their host and
sealing them away. He had felt the rage that another human would kill another
in an attempt to get what lied inside, and the rage that they planned to do it
to the two of them. In actuality it was because of Kyubi that Gaara was alive,
though no one knew.
Kyubi
had known why the old woman, Chiyo�s jutsu wasn�t working. It wasn�t just
because she didn�t have enough chakra; she didn�t have the right type. Gaara
was Jinchuuriki, a body that had become dependent on having demonic chakra in
it. When he had fed chakra to Chiyo, he knew she would die, not because of the
jutsu, but because the chakra he fed her had been specifically laced with
demonic chakra. Kyubi had laced with his own to kick start Gaara�s body in a
specific way, and to fulfill a specific purpose. The purpose was two-fold.
First his chakra laced with Kyubi�s would repair the damage to Gaara�s chakra
coils, rebuilding them, as Kyubi rebuilt his own when he overused Kyubi�s
chakra. So that it would require less demonic chakra, so that Gaara could
survive on the small traces of Shukaku�s chakra that remained in his system.
Second, to fortify the chakra left by the Ichibi, to guarantee that it would
never leave Gaara�s body, making him able to live for a long time, and to
maintain the ability to use sand that Gaara had.
While
this had been going on, Kyubi had ordered him to go through a connection he
formed to allow him to find Gaara�s soul. He had pulled it back. Their shared
past, and the tricks Kyubi had taught him about how all life was connected had
allowed him to go through his own pain to get to Gaara who was stuck between
moving on and staying behind. He had taken the child Gaara�s hand and pulled
him back to living, just as Kyubi�s chakra completed its purpose and faded from
the Suna-nin�s body.
That
act of kindness that Kyubi had done, that served the beast no purpose had made
him realize that they did have a connection. Kyubi had saved his friend because
of guilt that he knew this could happen one day to the both of them. He had not
lied, when later they had talked and he had confirmed that he trusted Kyubi.
Trust did exist between them.
It was
shortly after that he had noticed the changes Kyubi�s had been making on his
body. He had stayed silent pretending ignorance of what the beast was doing,
but he knew. Kyubi�s chakra had altered his own. His own chakra was now capable
of the same regenerative capabilities, though at a much slower rate. He had
also sensed small pockets of Kyubi�s chakra lying between his coils and his
tenketsu that were permanently apart of his body. They seem to be hidden
reserves that if activated would release bits of demonic chakra into his system
if ever the main body of demonic chakra was gone. He also sensed a small store
of odd chakra in his heart and brain chakra coils, which he knew would probably
release if he was killed. He knew that the big furball had done it so that if
by chance he was caught, and Kyubi was extracted, he could be resurrected.

That
was why, when Kyubi suggested combining their senses, he had agreed. The fox
had created a way for him to survive the loss of Kyubi; he could pay him back
by allowing him to experience the world he no longer was a part of. Taking a
calming breath, looking into Kyubi�s eyes, which watched him silently, asking
nothing, he moved forward.
�Let�s
start the final alteration of the seal, allowing you and I to speak with out
coming to the seal.�
* �� *
Naruto woke and stayed
still, wondering how his day would go. He had the next few days off, and was
unsure if he should even leave his apartment. At least till he knew that he
could control having someone talking in his head. Turning to look at the clock,
he noted that it was a few hours after sunrise. He stayed silent, unsure if
Kyubi was even awake. Stretching, he crawled out of bed, moved to his bathroom
to see to his morning routine.
Grabbing the milk bottle, he
went onto his balcony to look at the Hokage Mountain.
'You know, I always wondered why you like
watching the monument so much...'
The voice in his head
surprised him, and he started for a moment, 'I hate to say this, but this will definitely take time getting use to.'
he answered. He knew he was avoiding answering the question, but he wasn�t
sure how to answer that.
'That is why we did this right before your
few days off.' there was a brief pause, and the next words lacked the humor of the
last statement. 'Do you not answer because you don�t wish to tell me, or is it because
you don�t know how to explain?'
'I am
not sure how to explain Ever since I was a child, looking at the monument
seemed to ease my mind, and gave me hope. . . I have no idea why. When I am
upset, sitting on the Yodaime�s head makes me feel safe and cared for; when I
am pondering things, sitting on Sadaime�s head makes me feel like he is helping
me sort my thoughts. I sit on Baa-Chan�s head for when I just want peace.'
Kyubi was silent taking the
words in. 'I wonder why when I know you hate them as much as you love and admire
them.'
Naruto was silent as he
thought about it. 'I
understand that the old man was trying to protect me as best he could. I
honestly think he regretted he couldn�t do more, and I know it pained him to
always lie to me. As for Yodaime, I sometimes feel that my hate out weighs my
admiration for him, but I know that if I was in his place I would have done the
same. I just wished he had thought beyond the sealing you know? As for
Baa-chan, she worries about me to much, and I think she is lying about stuff
for a few different reasons.'�
'Like what?'
Naruto moved inside to start
breakfast as he tried to organize his thoughts. 'Some times I think she is waiting for others to tell me stuff, that she
feels they should have done, others I think she wants to make sure I am safe,
so I do not suffer as her little brother and fianc� did. Other times I
think she has been too fooled by this mask I wear, and doesn�t think I would
understand.'
He sensed Kyubi�s pondering
of the words, and realize that this talking to him was even more natural then
when he was in the seal. Now to make sure he always responded silently in his
head, that he maintained awareness around him, so people didn�t know he was
lost in thought, and �
'Sure we can�t go out around the village?'
-and stopped jumping every
time Kyubi started a conversation. He sighed; this would definitely take getting
use to.
* �� *
'-but why not? I mean it wouldn�t be that
hard to change would it?'
Naruto resisted the urge to
roll his eyes, as it might draw attention, since he was walking around by
himself. They had taken to walking around the village, after Kyubi had started
pestering him, enough that he realized that banging his head on his kitchen
table only hurt him. Now�
Kyubi had taken to waxing
eloquently on why he felt that Naruto should stop wearing so much orange on
missions. Especially, when he realized that all of Naruto�s �down-time� clothes
had slim to no orange in it, but were in more normal shades, with very little
bright colors. I fact Naruto liked natural colors, and usually walked around in
black, blue and tan pants/short with white, grey and black shirts. He had few
formal clothes, and wouldn�t wear them unless needed. It went against the
personality that he had created. Besides, his hair and natural coloring were
bright enough to stand alone.
'Because
to change unexpectedly would confuse everyone around me, it would take a major
event to allow me to change. Besides it confuses everyone. He answered.
Suddenly noticing where he was, he got an incredible urge to cause mischief.
'Ne,
Furball, do you want to mess around with powerful people?' He asked mirth
evident in his voice.
The sudden tenseness told
him Kyubi was looking around, and was confused. 'What do you mean?'
'Well
you remember how I mentioned that I was raised by Root for a bit? And how we
talked about Danzo and the elders?' Hearing a rumble of agreement from Kyubi he
continued. 'There is a root entrance near
by. How do you feel about playing word games'
He projected images and
ideas to Kyubi, and all though the fox was worried, he agreed. What fox
wouldn�t want to mess with a power mad �patriot�?
* �� *
The sewers were very similar
to the tunnels in his mind, and as he walked and Kyubi looked through his eyes,
he knew that the similarities were intriguing the fox. Months before when
he had mentioned Danzo to the Fox, they had watched all those earlier memories,
and now was the time to remind the old coot that he remembered him. Even
better, make him believe he never forgot like they wanted him to.
He stopped in front of a
wall, seeing the small scratches; he reached out and touched them, just
as he and the fox sensed a chakra signature near by. Touching them, he remained
calm, as the Ne ANBU stood behind him, and placed a kunai at his throat.
�Why are you here?� the
voice asked in that unemotional tone.
He grinned, and lowered his
hand slowly, as he sensed another chakra signature heading towards him. �Just
visiting my childhood haunts, why, is it a problem?� he asked letting amusement
enter his voice.
He could sense the confusion
in the Ne officer behind him, and he quickly grabbed the kunai wielding hand
and pulled it away to turn and look at the masked man. He grinned widely at the
man behind him, just as two more people appeared from the tunnel to the right
side of him. He noted briefly the Ne member and Danzo himself.
'That is the boy, Sai. Be careful'
�Naruto-kun, what brings you
here?� Danzo�s voice was as passive as always. He always played himself as less
then he was. Naruto was impressed that his visit had brought Danzo himself, he
felt honored.
�Not much, just missed this
place, thought I would take a walk around.� He answer nonchalantly, grinning
his ever present happy smile. His grin remained the same, as he saw Sai tense,
and Danzo�s eye narrowed ever so slightly.
�I wasn�t aware you remember
this place.� Danzo finally said, he motioned for the Ne guard to leave, and
then turned expecting Naruto to follow.
Naruto stepped in line next
to Danzo and walked with him towards Ne headquarters.
�Well, I am sure how you
know that in life or death situations, or when Kyubi tries to convince me to
use his powers I wind up in the Seal.� He started, enjoying the sudden tension
in Danzo, subtle though it was. �Would you believe me if I tell you that
my mindscape appears to be based off these very tunnels, almost a complete
duplicate. It seems you had more of an impact on my childhood then anyone
knew?�
As Danzo lead him into the
main entry to Ne, he looked at the large room with a gated entry; he could hear
Kyubi take a deep breath in shock, it was almost identical to the Kyubi�s gated
entrance. Danzo looked at him with one narrowed eye, and then motioned
for the gate to open. As they stepped though into the main area which contained
all the pipes that maintained Konoha, that appeared like a large root system.

�Ah, yes this is the place.
If I remember an ANBU member who was also Ne, use to teach me how to throw
shuriken and kunai right their.� he pointed off to a corner.
'We need to talk later the image just became
clearer, and I believe it was the older Uchiha.'
'Ah,
and this is good, I didn�t react to you talking.'
He turned and looked at Sai
directly, hidden as he was by his mask. �So Sai, want catch a movie later?�

He almost laughed as Danzo
finally showed his shock, and Sai removed his mask, watching him with narrow
eyes. Suddenly he smiled his fake smile. �Of course, Naruto-kun.�
Naruto shook his head, then
sighing loudly he looked at Danzo with disappointment. �Ano, why don�t you
teach them how to fake emotions properly? That is so false, that in anyone
else, it would set them off.�
�Well no one learned as well
as you did Naruto-kun, although mostly because we couldn�t completely erase
your emotions. Kyubi and all.� Danzo said. Naruto realized them that Danzo was
very curious as to what he was up to. �So why are you really here?�
'Careful.'
�Perhaps, after that first
mission with Sai, I realized that I should probably remind you, Jisan and
Obasan that I do remember my childhood. I am also very disappointed in the
three of you.� He smiled at the way Sai seemed to step back, and how Danzo
tensed. �I mean I remember reading those scrolls you gave me, coming down hear
to get away from the stress of living in the village till I was 8. How you
three use to sneak me candy all the time.� 'Time
for the killing blow.' �How you all fought amongst yourself to have the
most influence with me.�
�You are implying something,
and I can�t figure out what?� Danzo said harshly.
�Ah,� Naruto tilted his head
slightly, his eyes half-lidded, �why are you three so busy tearing the village
apart in your power games? Have you forgotten that the village needs you three
to work with the Hokage in times of strife? Akatsuki, Orochimaru, Sasuke�so
much that needs to be sorted, and you three offer no aid to Tsunade-Baa-Chan.
Why? I mean we know I am too young to be Hokage, she is the best option for
now, why are you blocking her?�
�I do not understand
Naruto-kun...� Danzo said softly.
�Hmm, guess you don�t.� He
muttered softly.
'Throw out that you feel that the four of
them were all so busy trying to accomplish the same thing, and it was a waste.'
'What
things?'
'Protecting you!'
�I guess it�s just, Tsunade
is constantly trying to protect me from you guys, not realizing that you all
are trying to protect me from the �danger�." He air quoted for effect,
�It's such a mess, and you all are just trying to protect me from the wrong
people.� He shook his head in amusement. �I mean surely Sai told you of my
fight with Orochimaru, had Yamato-taicho not interfered, and Sakura-chan not
run at me, I probably could have injured him enough for capture.� Naruto
grinned cheekily, �I didn�t loose control as much as they thought, and
Sakura-chan�a smart shinobi would know not to run towards a Jinchuuriki coated
in a Bijou�s chakra, especially one a corrosive as Kyubi�s. As for Sasuke, he
couldn�t kill me when he had the chance at the Valley of the End, he won�t now.
He is to�weak willed?� Naruto tilted his head again showing his confusion as to
whether that was the right word.
Danzo watched him with a
steady gaze, and then nodded slightly, understanding what Naruto was implying.
�So Sai, meet me later and
we will catch a flick.� he said turning to leave. �Ojjisan, tell Obasan and
Jisan I said hello, as I can�t do that around Baa-chan.� Waving a hand behind
his head, he walked conifdently out of the Ne ANBU headquarters.
�Naruto-kun!� Danzo�s voice
was sharp, and he turned to look at him inquisitively, �You play a dangerous
game.�
He smiled a huge fox grin,
�Only if I didn�t have the power to back myself.�
�I have seen the reports,
Jiraiya did not make you as strong as he should, you could come to me for more
training.� Danzo offered, playing his hand.
Naruto laughed, and walked
over to a seal that was on the wall. He bit his finger and made some
alterations, and then re-activated it. He could hear Danzo and Sai take a deep
breath as the Seal�s strength increased from his slight changes. �He taught me
more then he knows. Thanks to the pick pocketing you had your men teach me.� he
grinned again, and turned to leave. �Especially since he tended to leave a lot
to drink, whore and meet his contacts. I learned more then he knows, and more
then you can guess.�
'Glance back at him.'
Naruto glanced back at him,
and felt Kyubi send a chakra burst to his eyes, making them red and slitted for
a moment, before they finally turned and left. He could here Sai, just barely
as they walked away.
�Well he is more then he
appears...� a small dose of confusion in his voice.
�Ah, always was.� Was
Danzo�s reply; soft and filled with something.
* �� *
He
looked at the Gaki who was sitting against the gate. They were watching
memories, and trying to see if they could sort out what the Elder Council, Danzo
and Tsunade were plotting amongst themselves. The event that had taken place
earlier, followed by a very simplistic movie event with the Ne boy Sai, was
telling. He felt a strong sense of approval well in him, and pride! He had made
this boy! Not the four old people who cared for him in his childhood. Not the
school teacher, nor the Jonin instructor. Not even the Pervert or the new
Hokage. No he, Kyūbi no Yōkō, had made the boy today who had
played word games with a dangerous person. And the boy had come out on top.
Kyubi
stretched one of his tails out of the bars to wrap around the boy, and
wondered. Is this what it means to be proud of a child you raised? Perhaps
there was hope for humanity.
But,
the boy had proven he could hide their communication in a dangerous testing
ground� Now to test him by annoying the shit out of him when he starts training
again�Oh yes, that would be fun, because the best way to help him maintain this
balance was by testing�"Yeah that�s what it would be." he snickered.
Trying to ignore the narrow look in Naruto�s eyes as he looked at him.
TBC� More coming �.
