"This way, guys" Naruto directed as the group of six other children in a tight group, crouching low to the ground to avoid being seen by the gate guards, through the trees and towards the more open rocky area of an small ravine.
He lead them down the side and to the crack in the wall cautiously. It was Kiba who broke their silence "where're we going, Naru?"
"This is where I found my chichi and niisan. This is were I found out about neesan and niisan became part of me and chichi adopted me. Niisan says it's the perfect place to do this ceremony 'cause only chichi, Hokage-sama, Anko-san and some ANBU know where it is."
"Who's gonna do it with us? I mean we need an adult to show us. How's Kyuubi gonna help us?"
"Niisan and Neesan will. They said that just for this one time they can come out and help us. Niisan can use the dead bodies left around by bad people trying to get into Chichi's money room and 'cause both are becoming part of me, they can now use each others jutsu's, abilities and magic. So neesan will be able to use one of them too. They'll come out and help us, then when it's all over they'll come back inside me again."
"How?"
"I don't know, but they're there now getting everything ready."
The group soon reached an hole in the floor, once broken and open, now baring an small portable elevator. The seven climbed on board and rode it all the way to the bottom then single file along the narrow hallway.
They soon reached another crack in the wall, this one cleverly hidden by an cloak woven with an illusion jutsu. However Naruto knew where the entrance was, moved the cloth aside and lead everyone in.
Inside on the other side Naruto gaped. Someone with a cleaning fetish had been through and scrubbed, dusted and polished EVERYTHING.
The stone walls of the chamber and even the floor were all freshly polished and even painted here and there. There was not a single inch of dust anywhere they looked and his father's portrait of his human self looked like brand new. Like someone had restored it.
It hung on the wall at the back of the room where it had rested previously, the exact center between the sarcophagus of William The Just-that had once bore the Reaver blade on it, and his fathers freshly washed and polished one.
The two marble coffins shone like-well-marble.
On the floor between them rested an huge furry carpet, blood red and with his fathers clan symbol-vampire-woven in black in the center of it.
On the other side of the room were things such as a few vases on pedestals, an bookshelf filled with old tomes and ancient text, a couple of comfy old looking chairs, a table covered in maps and other documents and a few torches.
Obviously a place of Kain to sit and while away a few centuries in study.
Across from them was another doorway, an huge metal gate blocking the entrance into another hallway.
Although cozy the room seemed hardly big enough for some sort of ceremony involving the seven children and two 'adults'. They frowned.
"Neesan?" Naruto called out curiously, more for his friends and mates benefit than his own.
The gate opposite them suddenly creaked open, startling them as an tall figure walked in, head down as she concentrated on the contents of the bowl she was stirring.
She suddenly looked up, looking startled at them "oh! You're here finally!"
She was an tall willowy women with long red hair flowing down her shoulders to touch and part around the nine fox tails sticking out just over the top center of her buttocks. Two cute red fox ears on the top of her head stuck out of the hair-same red as the tails.
Long well manicured nails were, for all intents and purposes, clawed, but with the long slim hands appeared like the fancy nails the children had seen on those rich and spoilt socialites they had seen in the village, despite the fact they knew, as a creature of nature, she wasn't and couldn't be one of THEM.
What use did a demon for well tended nails and 'looking good'.
Her old fashioned kimono was forest green, edged in red flames which bore gold writing so old they couldn't read it, but the longer they looked at it the more it seemed some sort of genjutsu, because looking at it made the flames seem to move.
Her smile was beautiful, breathe-taking even, the same sort of innocent and infectious warmth Naruto had, despite the sharp teeth it revealed to them.
But then, Kiba's clan all had sharp teeth as well, same with the claws, so maybe that was why she seemed less frightening, even though they all knew who AND WHAT she was.
"Are you really the Kyuubi?" Kiba asked with a frown "you don't look so scary."
She smiled cutely at him "yes I am. But I am NOT some violent creature consumed by blood-lust and the idea of murder." She looked at Sasuke "we are both victims of the same evil human, your clan and I. It is HE who murdered your clan and forced me to do such an evil deed against my will. I may have attacked the village and did such damage, but I had no choice."
"What do you mean?" they asked.
Shikamaru frowned "it was an genjutsu, wasn't it. Someone put you under an genjutsu and made you attack. While you did, they attacked Sasuke's clan and killed them all but him and his brother. So everyone would be to busy with stopping you to know what HE was doing."
She nodded solemnly.
Sasuke looked at her "that makes us the same" he lowered his head slightly and mumbled "will you be my Neesan too?"
The woman's smile was blinding "of course, Sasuke, I would be honored." She bowed to him, then looked at the rest of the group "after this is done, we ALL will be family. You will be Naruto's pack, his sulk, it doesn't matter if you were born into it or not and pack protect each other, we love each other."
The seven children all nodded in agreement seriously.
"Now" she smiled again "my brother and I have just finished preparing the area we need, all that is left is THIS" she motioned with the bowl she held, beginning stirring again.
"What is it?" they asked curiously.
"This is the catalyst for the chakra, the thing that will cause the link between you all. It is currently an mix of water, ink filled with my chakra and the ashes of the old Soul Reaver sword. It just needs one more thing-or rather seven more little things."
"What?" they asked curiously.
"A few drops of your blood, from each of you. While my chakra will create the bridge and Razeil-sans sword dust will allow you to actually communicate with each others minds, the blood from each off you inside it will be not only what allows the connection between each other, but let you track each other."
They looked at Shikamaru who explained simply "her chakra will join us, Naruto's niisan will let us talk to each other and our blood will let us track each other and mean only WE have that connection, right?" he looked up at her for confirmation.
She nodded "exactly."
They followed the woman inside the long hallway from the gate, down a few twists and turns and open other rooms with disabled traps until they reached an larger room where she stopped "here we are."
Larger than the others this room was obviously cleared by the two by the stones and various other debris piled in one corner.
Various symbols and kenji was painted or written on the walls, an huge one on the ceiling mimicking the one on the floor.
They both bore an huge circle with an strange sort of star over it, one point at the top, another at the bottom, each side with three points. Another smaller circle was in the center of the star, marked with Naruto's name and other writing around the outside and it was then the children noticed their names written on a point of the star, the six sides while the woman's was written on one of the single points, the 'brother' on the other.
As they entered Naruto cried "NIISAN!" and ran into the arms of the figure standing silently in a dark corner-hidden from them.
The figure bent at the waist and caught up the child, letting him hug him tightly, an smile on dark colored lips.
While the woman was stunningly beautiful, the young man was devastatingly handsome. Well, both in an supernatural kind of way.
The man had short cut black hair around just below the ears, pale skin and pure white eyes that resembled an Hyuugas'.
He was tall and well built, muscular but not overly so, behind him hung a pare of large bat-like wings.
He was wearing the pants and shirt or vest of an ANBU, meaning either an ANBU had died inside during the disarming of some trap-which was doubtful since the body would have been returned to any family, or even just the village-or some ANBU from another village had found the place in the past and again been caught in a trap and killed and he had taken it's body. (Think Razeil the vampire from the start of Soul Reaver.)
His lips appeared black, as if wearing goth lipstick, his nails clawed like Kiba's and the woman's, the only difference was not only were his black like his lips, but while the two's were curled like proper claws, his were just long and straight, kind of like little miniature knives attached to his fingers.
After letting the boy talk excitedly for a few long minutes and heading for the group with him still in his arms, the man spoke gently "that's enough, Naruto. We only have an limited time before it is noticed you and your friends are gone from the village. We must be done by then or they may try to interfere."
Naruto went quiet, looking at his 'brother' for a few seconds before nodding solemnly "'Kay, niisan." Sliding to the ground out of his arms, Naruto moved to his mates side, allowing her to slide into his front and grip.
"Right" the male looked at them "I am Razeil Uchiha, although at my time we weren't called Uchiha. They only recently in the last few centuries changed it, with the birth of Jutsu's and genjutsu's and such. What my previous clan name was, I no longer remember, but the current clan came from mine." He looked at Sasuke "as that makes you kindred with Kyuubi it makes myself and you two related, so Naruto as well. Even though I am currently merging with Naruto, if you both have ever need of me...."
"....Or US" the demon fox interrupted, then looked at the group "That goes for the rest of you as well. That's what this is all about."
Touched, Sasuke swallowed his tears and nodded to the male figure.
The woman called the children to her side, had them all sit together on an broken pillar in the corner and spoke softly to them. "What we are going to do is use my chakra and Razeil san's to create an permanent bond between you all. Since Razeil san doesn't have a body to hold his chakra, since the body he is using isn't his, we are using the dust of the old sword. Since his soul was inside so long as well as being used on both his human and wraith self, the sword WAS his body, it was filled with him.
To make this work I first need some drops of each of your blood so it knows who to link and then I need to draw an symbol somewhere on you so there is a physical link for you. When all is done it will become an permanent mark, like a tattoo, so you have to choose a place somewhere the adults won't see it, or they'll know and may try and break the connection, alright?"
The group nodded solemnly.
She then looked at the other 'adult' with an "now for the hard part" expression. She knelt in front of them and spoke gently but firmly "this HAS to remain between us and each other. You can not tell your family, the Hokage, other friends, NO ONE."
"Why not?" Kiba frowned at her.
"Because people in the village still think I am an evil creature."
"But you're not" he frowned at her.
"No, I am not. And since they think I am evil, they think NARUTO is evil too because I am inside him, which is why they hurt him. And if ANYONE found out what we are going to do here, if they found out you were linked to him and therefore ME, they would not care if you said you wanted to do it, or that we did not hurt you, they would use it as an excuse to hurt Naruto more, even so bad he will die next time." She clutched Naruto in her arms deeply when he whimpered and curled in on himself in fear and memories of previous beatings.
"So no telling anyone about it, even family. You can talk about it to each other but no one else. If your family found out they would tell the Hokage and other people, those people would tell other people, until those mean people would find out."
"I promise I won't tell anyone" Kiba said "and I promise I'll hide our mark, no one will know. My honor as an Inuzuka."
The other five all echoed the promise with their own clan name and Naruto looked at them with teary gratitude and friendship "thanks guys."
The Inuzuka frowned at him "Why?"
"Why what?"
"Why are you thanking us, we're family, of course we'd protect you."
"Ah but Naruto has never had a family before Kain and Razeil san and he found out about me. He wouldn't know what to do as a brother" she held the boy close to her "It will be all our job to teach him, will it not?"
The other six children all nodded in union and agreement.
"Then choose" she said to them. When they only looked at her in bafflement, she smiled "the place you want the mark. Choose somewhere we can place the mark you can hide, but you think you will ba able to access easily. Perhaps some place under your clothes."
The six immediately huddled together, talking rapidly and with a few yes and no's and suggestions to each other.
Finally they had decided and why.
Sasuke choose his left side, at the point exactly between neck and shoulder, explaining he could hide it with the high collar of his clothes.
Shino choose his lower right hip, stating even during summer it would be hidden by shorts.
Shikamaru choose his left inner wrist, saying he could hide it with wrist bands.
Hinata choose her chest, the top and little bit closer to the right side of the center-her heart.
Kiba choose his leg, left, inner thigh near the femoral artery. His excuse, when he went into an defensive or offensive crouch, it was an easier place to touch there then.
Choji choose the inner arm, able to be covered by shirt sleeves or coats, or just by holding his arm against his side.
The woman turned to Naruto "yours would have to be on the back of your neck, just under your head so it could be hidden by your hair, it is long enough."
Naruto accepted this.
Using the sharp tip of an kunai the man and woman put a small cut into each child's finger and held it over the mixture long enough to gain exactly seven drops each from each child-seven each to symbolize the seven children. Then, while Kyuubi used her chakra to heal each shallow cut, the man slowly and carefully stirred to mixture.
Once done he handed it back to the woman who began to chant something over the concoction.
Then the woman called each over to their spot on the star and positioned before carefully using and thin quill to paint the symbol on them in the ink mixture.
Naruto was placed in the very center of the star, hair tied back so the black mixture shone on the back of his neck.
Then the woman stood on one end and the man on the other, the two lone points on either end of the star.
"Now" the male said to the children "you six all need to concentrate on Naruto. Think about your friendship with him, think about being family-pack. If you want to close your eyes so you can concentrate easier, then do so."
While the man spoke, the woman was chanting, going slowly and carefully go through hand signs, the symbols around them starting to glow and react, some even seeming to move.
To keep from being distracted by the light and moving symbols, one or two of them did as the man suggested, closing their eyes and concentrating soley on their friend.
The power built and began to change, they felt it touch their symbols and start to burn slightly, an pressure building around their heads.
Someone in the group whimpered and tne man spoke quickly "do not try to scratch or fight it! It is working! Concentrate! Hard!"
Reenergized by excitement and the man's words and tone of voice the six increased their efforts, despite the now more powerful pressure and burn.
The chakra in the room became almost unbearable, making it difficult to breathe, but they struggled to keep their efforts up.
"Now!" the man called out "your own chakra! Flair it as hard as you can!"
Being the children of clan's with an kekki genki or jutsu of some type, each child had or was being taught to control their chakra since they were practically babies, so knew how, immediately flairing their own chakra into the mix.
This time the mixed chakras WERE unbearable and each child felt their mark pop with pins and needles before the growing pressure in their heads came free, like when your ears pop with being up in an airplane and one by one the seven blacked out, crumbling to the floor under them.
The last thing they heard was an combined scream from Naruto and the woman and roar from the man then unconsciousness claimed them all.
