Ok, this chapter took soooo long to get down and I don't even like it. It has just been so long since I updated it that I though a chapter was overdue. I would LOVE it if any of you would tell me how to make this any better. To me is seems like something is missing but i cant find out what.

This is UNBETAED!

Naruto POV Real World

I woke up to a dull pain in my chest. Opening my eyes I could see the full moon above me. Looking to the side a little I could see the silver thread. It had weakened while I was asleep.

Sasuke was getting weaker.

I expanded my hearing to find out how many people where around me. I could find nine heartbeats. Everyone was sleeping. Forcing my healing body to get up I walked around the forest till the thread was pointed across the flowers.

"The vines moved him a few hours ago." a voice behind me said. "It seems they didn't want to chance you being able to get to him again."

I turned around to see Orochimaru leaning on a tree. Sharping my hearing again I could tell that the heart that I had though was his was still there but was different than the other human hearts. He had summoned a snake to take his place.

"Clever. What do you want Orochimaru?"

"I want to know how you bound your soul to Sasuke's. Its not an easy thing to do." he said getting right to the point.

"You seem to be under the impression that I have the power to do that. Pray tell, what makes you think that I can do anything like that?"

"Don't play dumb. You and I know very well what you are capable of. The power that you try to hide. Why do you hide it? The village could…"

"Could do what? I've been hated all my life, and finally that hatred had subsided some. I don't want to lose the ground I've gained, so I hide my powers."

"What kind of powers do you have that the village would hate you over? You have already shown the ability to tap into the foxes powers. If that didn't incur their wrath what else would?"

"During the battle with the 10 tails, when I had transported us away, I took us to a place where no one else existed. A reality that I created to train in. There I tried to call on the power that I had. But he caught me before I could unleash it fully. He tired to take Kurama from me because he knew that I could stop him.

"He got close to Kurama before the power that I had intervened. The fox was lost in the ensuing chaos. His mind, his soul, was erased. I now take his place as the nine tailed fox." as I spoke a sudden wind ghosted through the clearing. As the wind blew over me, fox ears appeared on my head and nine tails fluttered around my waist.

"Do you really think that the village that hated me because I housed a demon, would tolerate the demon itself?"

"They accepted me didn't they? I lost a part of my soul and became a worse demon that you could ever be, and they took me back."

"You where fixed. This can not be changed." I said pointing to my ears and tails. "I can not change back into what they want me to. The hinge is only temporary. The power I have now will soon grow. My body was human, so it wasn't strong enough contain the chakra. I had to leave the eight trigrams seal active just to keep it from splitting my body apart cell by cell.

"Over time the chakra has transformed my body into something that could contain it without burning out and with nothing to contain, the seal is breaking. When it finally gives out the hinge will crumble and all the village will see is the monster that they hate."

"So you think you can just save him and vanish? You are a fool if you think they will just let you go. Especially after your performance this afternoon. You will be hunted down, and Sasuke will die with you. Don't even try to deny it! I know how strong a bond like the one you share with him can be."

"I have no choice! Kurama was immortal, and so will I be when the seal breaks. If I stay they will only come to fear me even more and I will never again know a moments peace. And besides, he is not bound to me, I am bound to him. It is payment for saving him a long time ago. What happens to me will not affect him.

"How did the bond come about anyway?"

"The power I have is nothing if not dangerous. It demands a price for every use, and sometimes it can demand life itself."

"Is that what you plan to do? Give your life to him?"

"No. I can not give what is no longer mine."

At his look I explained a little more. "My life is already lost. I can not die a second time. The fox gave his life, and used my power to give mine back to me. The only thing keeping me from true immortally is the seal. He gave me his power and his life, and now I must live for him. I will save Sasuke, and then I will leave. It is the only path left to me."

"Then would you let me walk it with you?"

I looked at him for a full minute. His words where sincere.

"Why would you want to walk my path of hate? As you yourself said, the village accepted you back. Why would you throw that away?"

"Because you are family." he said like it explained everything.

"I have no family. Even when the seal breaks and the souls that created it are returned, I will no longer be human."

"If you really think about it I'm not completely human either."

"You are far more human that I will ever be. I ask once more, Why would you give that up? Why do you care what happens to me?"

"Your soul is like one that I was very close to. When I was a Chūnin there was a trial to over come before one could become a Jōnin. You have to have been chunin for a year and have been on a solo mission for a month.

"It was just after my first year as one that I was finally given a month long mission to some little mountain town that was being targeted by a large group of bandits. On my way there I was ambushed just outside of the borders.

"I took down several with no problem. However they had numbers on their side. I managed to get in side of the borders with help from the village warriors, but I was not unharmed.

"I was tended by this nurse that kept muttering about how the village didn't need a ninja that couldn't even help himself. She was dour little thing and wasn't much to look at, but for some reason every male that crossed her path couldn't seem to look away.

"It took me a while to realize that while her words to me where harsh her hands that tended my wounds where more gentle that Tsunade's ever where. My wounds where not severe so I didn't have a lot of time left before she kicked me out.

"After that I didn't think of her much. However I did notice when I was injured they always sent me to her. It turned out that the bandits where smart and it took over a month for me to get rid of them all.

"But during the final battle they had hired missing-nin. They where stronger than I was, but somehow I managed to defeat them. But at great cost. I know I should have died then and there. But the next thing I remember was waking up in the hospital. My dour mouse of a nurse asleep in the chair next to me.

"When another nurse came to check on me I asked her some questions. I had never bothered to learn my nurses name so I had no knowledge of her other than that of her occupation.

"I found out her name was Nozomi, and she had saved m life. She had a powerful Kekkei Genkai that allowed her to manipulate a persons chakra, but only once she had contact with it before. The village had her learn my chakra so if my life was in danger she would be able to help me.

"She stayed by my side until my wounds where fully healed. But by that time it was too late. I had already fallen. She had looked like a mouse with her hair always a mess and her face always frowning, but during the time I spent with her she opened up.

"I think I fell for her laugh first. I found myself saying things just to make her laugh. Then with her smile. I stayed In the village for another week just getting to know her. We started dating and the rest fell into place. It was three weeks after I was supposed to be back that Jiraiya came to see me.

"He couldn't believe the change in me. I had always been a quite serous person and he found me laughing, smiling and telling jokes. I wish I had a picture of the look on his face when he met Nozomi.

"When he left he said he would talk to the Hokage and have me stationed in the village until I wanted to come back. I had asked him to keep quite about Nozomi and he promised me he would. Honestly I'm surprised he managed to keep his mouth shut so long.

"However after a month or so she said she had something to tell me. I thought she was leaving me. But what she told me was far worse than anything I had ever heard.

"The real reason that a ninja had been called in was because the bandits had been taking women and raping them. The village was suffering in more ways than one and needed a new hope that something could be done.

"She said she had been one of the last to have been taken before I had arrived. I was absolutely amazed. She told me she was expecting some rapists kid and she was smiling like it had been planed!

"When I asked her how she could smile like that with all that had happened to her she just said 'No matter what, a child is always free of the sins of its parents'. She loved kids and nothing and on one was going to stop her from having hers.

"It took a long time for me to realize that she was talking about me as well as her own child. I never met my family but I did know that they there one of the worst kind of people.

"After a few months I asked her to marry me. It took quite a bit of wooing but eventually she said yes. Because I didn't have a last name I took hers. After her son was born the village was quite for a few years.

"Then she got sick. It started out slow. We didn't even know what was going on till it was too late to fix it. It was a new form of an old virus. It slowly began to affect her body. She was able to keep most of it a bay with her Kekkei Genkai but even with that she could only do so much.

"And soon I realized that her Kekkei Genkai, while making her feel better was killing her faster. The body and the chakra network are closely related to each other. Using her chakra when her body was failing caused her network to begin to break down and her body to weaken faster that it should have.

"I may be seen as a strong and smart man but I know myself very well. It took me all of three seconds to realize I would not me able to find a cure in time. It took me even less to decide that I would rather die with her than live without her.

"I used a jutsu that gave part of my soul to her. Enough that when she died I would die with her. I should have known she would find out. She was smart and began to give it back to me little by little.

"Then a miracle happened. I developed a treatment. It was in no way a cure, but it gave us hope. Hope that if we could stop her body from breaking down then she could heal herself.

"When she was well enough to go outside again we took trips up to the lake. It was the treasure of the village. The lake produced a extremely rare kind of stone called a water crystal.

"It was the reason the bandits had come to the village in the first place. The lake was co clear you could see the bottom on clear days. We often went there. Then everything changed again.

"To this day I still don't know what was getting late and we where getting ready to leave. I was watching the little one play in the field when he fell down a hill. I ran to go make sure he was alright and when I got back….

"She was floating in the lake. I ran to her as fast as I could but she was already gone. I found a red mark on her neck where someone had held her under. It was then that I knew how she got sick.

"With the new hope the treatment had given us she had taken her time in returning my soul to me, but she still had enough that her death made me unstable. I had enough of my mind to stay in the village until she was put to rest, but after that I couldn't handle it anymore. I returned to Konoha.

"I still had enough of my mind left to realize the if the boy stayed with me I would end up destroying him. I did the only thing I could do. I left him at the orphanage with his mothers bank information. She was well off and he would be cared for.

"I through myself into madness after that. I tried so many ways to bring her back but nothing worked. I tried to find a cure to the sickness that she had but failed that to.

"It was many years that I found out about something that would eventually be the true cause for my defection from the village. I was going through old forbidden files in the hall of records when an earth quake shook everything.

"I was sitting in one of the isles and was pelted by falling books and scrolls. I was about to leave before someone came to check on things when I saw a mission scroll with her clan symbol on it.

"I was devastated to find that one of the council had ordered her death. Apparently they feared her Kekkei Genkai would some day be used ageist them, never-mind that she had made it her life's work to help people. They only saw the threat.

"After I found out, I made some of my insanity driven experiments known, and left the village. It all happened just after the forth Hokage had been named so people though that was why I had developed a hatred for the village.

"I never corrected them. I didn't want the council to find out how much I knew. That was also the reason for my going after Sasuke and the attack on the village. I knew what Danzo had done to Itachi. And I knew what he planed on doing to Sasuke, should Itachi ever betray him.

"The attack was for a different reason. It was all a charade to buy time. I had some of my more trusted men break into the ROOT HQ to copy and replace files. They took the originals and replaced them with copies.

"With the files I began to create a net work that would completely destroy Konoha. But before I could complete my work, Sasuke killed me. I spoke to Nozomi again. She gave me the missing pieces of my soul back.

"I can't say that I hate the village itself anymore. But I also can't say my hatred is gone. But I can say my plans to destroy Konoha have stopped. Even with Danzo dead and the other members of the council being punished for their crimes, I don't think I could ever return to the village.

"I would like to show you the village. Her village that is. After her death the lake became black and the plants died. When there was nothing left the villagers left. I would like to see what became of it."

"While that was a nice story an all it still doesn't explain why you think we are family." I pointed out.

"Don't you know who your father is?" he asked.

"No. Why would I? I assumed that my parents abandoned me when Kurama was sealed within me. I have long ago stopped caring about them. If they wanted nothing to do with me, then I want nothing to do with them."

"Have you ever heard the name Minato Namikaze?"

"Of corse. Who hasn't. He was the forth Hokage, the one who placed the seal on me in the first place."

"He was also Nozomi's son. He married a woman by the name Kushina Uzumaki and they had a son. You."

"Me?" I whispered. "My own father was the man who sealed the nine tailed fox inside of me?"

"Yes. I wish I could say that he had no other choice but I wasn't there. I don't know what happened. All I can say is that I kept tabs on him, form time to time anyway. He was a good man, and his love for your mother was obvious. I would be willing to bet that he loved you too. Why else would he give his live so you could live?"

"He gave his life for his village. No matter how you twist the facts that is what happened. He sealed the fox inside of me so it would not destroy his home. I understand his choice, but that doesn't mean that I forgive him for it."

"I understand. Honestly I expected you to say you hated him. If not for being your father, then for sealing the fox into you."

"I never blamed The Forth. He did it to protect lives. I don't really think he knew it would cost mine to do so. I do not hate him, I just don't forgive him."

"I understand. But that doesn't change the facts. I married his mother before she gave birth, and that makes me his father, your grandfather. That makes us family. I know I wasn't the best father, but I want to do right by you."

"It is your choice. If this is the path you want to walk then so be it." I said reaching down to the flowers. My hands glowed with chakra as I told the plants not to harm him.

"You may walk in the flowers now. But if you betray me, they will kill you. They are similar to the vines in that they can think, but they are loyal to me. I've already told them not to kill the others."

He nodded, taking a tentative step into the field. "What now?

"Now we go get Sasuke. I know more about the vines this time, so getting him out of the genjutsu wont be a problem. The hardest part will be to find him."

"You mean that with your soul bond the hardest part will be getting to him before the vines move him again." Orochimaru corrected.

"Pretty much." I said and we headed for the forest, and to Sasuke.
