Summery: Naruto always had the demon fox sealed within him. Ever since birth. But upon the night when the main orb of the night sky is at his peak, Kyuubi joins his physical aspects even further beyond the whisker marks on his cheeks. This act does cause a strange connection with the forest...a forest of death.

Warnings: MAY contain yaoi! I'm not sure yet, so no flaming!

Konoha

A boy, not even six, shivered in the darkest alley. Cold, hungry, and bleeding, he cried. He cried for his pain. Pain of his wounds and that his own village had done it to him. He threw his head back and screamed at the moon.

Which was full.

He began to change, painfully and still screaming an animalistic howl. The boy's spine stretched and bent until he stood on all fours. His palms and bottom of his feet became coarse and claws burst through where his fingernails grew into corse claws. His face lengthen into a snout with the whisker scars petruding, and his eyes turned from sky blue to a hue darker than blood with slitted pupils. He curled into a ball as his tail burst free from concealment and ears changed into the pointed for of foxes. Finally his torture ended as he was covered head to toe with fuzz.

Shaking off the remaining blood, he hesitantly began to trod, wincing at his sensitive pads. What had happened to him?

From out on the street, a commotion resulted from the scream the boy let loose earlier. "It was from there! It was a...a something! Kill it!" A woman shrieked to a group of off-duty guardians of the villiageninja.

Naruto winced, his ears way to sensitive for the shrill voice. He leaped up, on to the roof, clearing a twenty foot jump.

"A...a something? Wow that sounds very scary," a man mocked, "Don't worry about it, sweetheart. We'll kill the a...a something for you!" A thwack ended his sarcastic speech for him.

Quite a few men swarmed the space Naruto was just sitting in. They glanced around but, finding nothing, laughed at the woman following them.

"Shut up! I heard something hear! Everyone heard something!"

That was you, kit. Your screaming woke them up. Hell, your screaming even woke ME up!

Who are you? the boy flinced at the sudden voice in his head. Great, so along with growing a furball-coat, he was hearing voices too...

Never mind that. Just get out of here.

And Naruto, so stupid and trusting, leapt out toward the forest next to The Hidden Leaf Village.

The forest

Naruto grabbed on to a passing branch, swinging around it once before letting go to land on his head. Naruto sat up and shook his head to clear the stars. For good measure, the boy licked his new paw and attempted to rub off the dirt.

Wow. Very graceful. But can we save the bath till later? the voice snickered.

Shaddup. Yet again, who the hell are you?

I am the most powerful of the Demon Lords of the Makai world. I am omnipotent to the point that I can kill all of the gods, demons, and the puny, mundane, mortals. Many bow down to me, and those who do not, die beneath my paw. My name as Mortals call me is Kyuubi, the Nine-Tailed Youkai Fox. The voice boomed within Naruto's head.

Naruto thought blandly, although his head was tingling from the force, So why are you in me?

It's your father's fault, the demon scowled even though he had no body.

The young boy promptly went on alert, Father? You knew my father? What did he do?

He sealed me-The All Knowing Demon Lords!-in to a brat.

Oh...who?

Kyuubi gave the mental equivalence of slapping his hand to his face, Ah, damn you Kami. You just had to stick me in an idiot.

Naruto blinked, not entirely certain how this was directed at him. His face took on a small scowl as he tried to think...then something in his brain-er-head popped, HEY! I AM NOT AN IDIOT! YOU ARE JUST A FOX-TEME!

Oh good Lord. Kyuubi wailed, covering his sensitive fox ears, DON'T do that again!

Then shut up.

Kyuubi shook his head and silently vowed that the next time he saw God (Kami) he was going too kick the puny little –...

Um...excuse me? A little voice piped up, Ah, we where wondering...what exactly are you?

Naruto spun around to face a small furry creature. The creatue, if the boy remembered what his teacher said correctly, was called a "Tree-Cat." A very shy but powerful creature. If anyone somehow got a pelt of one, they could become really rich. Whose we? Naruto questioned the scared beast. His voice was rough, almost as if he hadn't used it in over a month.

The forest of course. Anyway, who are you?

A much deeper, powerful voice chimed in, Yes, you smell rather strange. I do not believe I have ever smelled any human quite like that before. A wolf, slunk out of the shadows, keeping a wary eye on the boy.

The part human rosed to his hunches in surprise. He had not paid any attention to his surrondings and was completely caught off guard. I'm Naruto... He took in a deep breath through his nose. And was overwhelmed by the scents that flooded his way. Automatically, his brain began too sort and name them. Some of which the poor boy had never actually heard off.

Beaver- a large semiaquatic rodent noted for gnawing though trees in order to make dams.

Bear- a large heavy mammal with thick fur and short tail.

Squirrel- an agile tree dwelling rodent with bushy tail, typically feeding on nuts and seeds.

Hawk- a fast-flying bird of prey with broad rounded wings and long tail.

Naruto began to reel with different facts and the assault on his nose. Black began welled up in to his vision, drowning his sight. Beginning to slump, Naruto gripped his head as it began to also name off nearby plants.

Hey, don't faint on us now! the squirrel he had smelled earlier chittered at him, We still need to get you to Kami!

Flicker, you dumbass! the beaver accompanying the small group snapped, Kami specifically said...

Flicker twitched, Well, it's not like I can help it! You very well know how I am supposed to talk talk talk. I swear it sometimes just pours out of my mouth kind of like a waterfall! You know the waterfall were all the water-you know-falls? But I did hear a waterfall that fell up instead of down! Can you imagine that, falling up?! In fact, my great-aunt used to tell me...

Tree-cat smiled as close as an animal could get to smiling as the rest growled in annoyance, previously hearing this story. The feral cat nipped at the rags Naruto was still wearing and proceeded to drag him off supposedly to Kami.

Well, fishcake the wolf smirked, Guess fair is fair. My name's Blur, the female that has your sleeve is Ashfur, the grumpy flat tail is Fantail, Flicker is Flicker, tall dark and stupid is Bartholomew and the feathered-brain is Gene.

A whisper of a voice came from the trees above them, You do realize Blur, that I could, at anytime, take time to explain to Bartholomew what you really mean as you say all the things that you insult his intelligence. Especially when he could flatten you with one blow from his paw. Naruto found to himself that he liked the voice. It held no anger despite the words, only mild amusement.

Bartholomew, the bear, seemed to smile blandly. But as soon as he caught Naruto's eye, he winked. The fox-boy had to hide his own smile.

What's so funny? Kyuubi snarled, feeling like he missed something.

Oh nothing. Nothing at all.

Bickers continued back and forth as Ashfur dragged him to a clearing. Naruto was nudged forward into the fairy ring as the animals fell back, their eyes going wide in wonder, as they reconized this ritual.

As Naruto entered a ring of the greenest grass he had ever seen, the wind picked up. His ears twitching and eyes watering, Naruto could barely make out a man walking toward him. The boys body separated into two. One was a boy, the sun-kissed blond, brightest blue eyes as seen in the beginning. The second was a man, with hair and eyes the color of new blood and fox ears. The world stopped for a second...

And then the not quite humans became one.

WHEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

My first chapter of my first published story is DONE!

Review to tell me how I'm doing!
