AN: There's a first time for everything, now let's do this! Also Buji Naruto. Should there be a pairing?

Chapter 1

Pain was all that registered for Naruto Uzumaki as his vision went in and out, the light of the moon overhead shined down onto him. The blonde felt small and weak. With the last thing he remembered was being consumed by a massive light when he and Kaguya clashed. Kakashi, Obito, Sasuke, Sakura, and everyone else had perished. 'That's right, my suicide rush, the blast killed her but why am I still…' his vision began to go once again.

"What the—oh my gosh!" a young sounding girl exclaimed in horror upon seeing him. The blonde didn't have the strength to move or even utter a word. As his vision darkened even more, he got a glimpse of the girls' brunette hair and blue eyes. "What happened to you little guy—who did this to you?" she as worriedly as she stood over the blonde. Naruto didn't have a choice in the matter of staying conscious as unconsciousness took him. Perhaps this was for the best. Hopefully he'd feel better when he woke up, if he woke up.

Hours had passed until Naruto could wake up, he stirred as injuries were no longer prominent thus allowing his body to feel much better. Yet he felt different, very different. Slowly opening his eyes he yawned and tried to sit up only to feel something that was definitely different, lifting up his neck and looking down he looked to his paws. Wait—paws? "What the—" he jumped up only to fall down. That's when he felt it wagging, slowly looking behind him, he saw a single, golden tail. Complete with golden fur. His blue eyes went down ward to see more fur, what oddly looked like rabbit ears mixed with fox ears, and two shaking hind legs. "No." looking around, he saw that he was in someone's bedroom, but definitely not a hospital. Slowly, he stood up and turned around to see himself in a mirror that was overhead a white desk. His whisker marks remained as did his blue eyes, but one thing was for sure. "Why am I a fox?!" he exclaimed. "Kurama!" he exclaimed only to receive silence, but upon saying the Buji's name, he felt empty and for good reason. 'I—I can't feel him.' this feeling was familiar, and he knew what it meant. The fox was gone, but this didn't explain his current predicament. Taking a deep breath and exhaling, he gathered what bearings he could muster. "Alright, I've become a small fox, I have no idea where I am, and everyone I know and love are dead." he sighed. His ears suddenly twitched as the sound of someone coming to the door alerted him. The door opened to reveal a girl who looked to be fourteen or maybe even fifteen. Brown hair that neatly went down to her waist and blue eyes. That was the girl from last night. 'This must be where she lives.' He silently said. The two simply stared at each other awkwardly for what seemed like hours before the girl took a step forward, Naruto didn't bother moving as she inched closer and closer to him.

"Hey there little guy." She greeted much to Naruto's confusion. If he was an animal now, then why would this girl try and speak to him like he was human? It wasn't like she would be able to understand him. "I'm Blythe Baxter." The now named Blythe said, Naruto raised an eyebrow. Maybe he was a summon now, either that or he'd become a—Buji. The latter being impossible. Right? "You want to tell me your name?" Maybe he should indulge, and simply answer her question.

"Naruto, my name is Naruto." he said.

"Naruto, that's a rather, unique name." Blythe said. Naruto's eyes widened upon hearing this.

"You understand me?!" he exclaimed in surprise.

"Yeah, I'm not sure how, but I've been able to do it since I moved into the city." She stated.

"Can other people do this?"

"Nobody I know." Blythe said now feeling that she could now sit next to the small fox. "So where's your owner? I found you out there in the trash, you were injured." She stated. "Did your owner do that to you?" Naruto nodded.

"I don't have an owner, never did, I was injured in a fight but I'm not sure how I ended up in a trash can." He stated. "In fact, I'm not even sure how I got here…where is here anyway?" he questioned.

"72 Oak Street, Downtown City." Blythe stated. "But if you're wondering what country, you're in America." The golden fox was confused.

"I've never heard of this country before, but have you heard of the Elemental Nations?" Blythe nodded. "What about Konoha?" the girl nodded again. "I guess that narrows it down, I must've been sent to another world or maybe a dimension." He slumped down. "I'm the sole survivor of the war…am I all that's left?" tears began to stream down his face as the facts hit him hard. Blythe hated to see this, someone crying. Not bothering to take into account what she was wearing, she pulled Naruto in to a hug, the now transformed Naruto couldn't hold back this sadness. Sure he wanted to be free of all of the fighting, but not like this. after a few more minutes of weeping, he steeled himself before cleaning himself up with tissues. Now there was only one question left. "What now?" he had nowhere to go and knew nothing about this world, not to mention he was a fox, a small one at that. His chakra was there, but it was faint; it needed to recharge. That would take some time. Blythe began to consider all the options that she could think of, but one stood out from the rest.

"What if I adopt you as my pet?" she asked much to Naruto's confusion. "I do work at a pet shop that's downstairs and I can tell that you don't want to go to an adoption center." She was spot on, Naruto still remembered his hellish time in the orphanage in Konoha. Being put in anything like an orphanage was something that he wouldn't allow; he would sooner live on the streets. "So what do you say?
"Friend, not a pet." The golden fox said, this offer he wouldn't refuse, but he refused to be called a pet. He lifted his left paw up; Blythe smiled.

"Alright, from now on you'll be my friend that just so happens to be an animal that lives with me." She said shaking his paw. "Now, let head down to the pet shop so you can meet everyone. Blythe Baxter would never foresee the events that would follow after she adopted Naruto, life for both of them was about to get very complicated.
