MrWriterWriter's Challenge:

What's in the Scroll?

Rules:

1) No Kage Bunshin. Naruto either decides against it or finds something before getting to it.

2) What he finds can be a weapon… (Kung Lao's hat, The Witchblade, etc.) Or it can be someone (IE; Felicia from Darkstalkers, Razel from Soul Reaver…) your choice.

3) Naruto can retain a bit of his old self, but must acquire SOME badass-ness. If a person, they can either offer him something in exchange for being freed or make a decision to help after seeing what he has to put up with

4) Parings: Naru/Hina, femhaku, or Tenten, or a combination. Harem is optional.

5) Bashings: not essential, but Team 7 bashing is encouraged. Any others will be up to the writer's tastes.

6) Naruto has to beat seven shades of shit out of Sasuke AT LEAST once in the fic. (Somewhere aside from the VoTE.)

7) Please...no yaoi. FemNaruto..?(Naruko?)...mmmm Maybe...

KON: Amalthea does not own Naruto, bleach or any songs that appear! All she owns is the animal forms and his summons alongside the toads. Please vote in her poll and read and review her stories. She is also looking for art work of the stories!

Ch.1

Naruto sighed as he copied Jutsu from the forbidden scroll at a rapid pace; he then noticed a familiar looking seal even though he knew he had never seen it in his life. He quickly figured out how to open it and released the seal; a brilliant light erupted from the seal and then shrank into the forms of a young Tiger cub and Kitsune kit. Naruto blinked then noticed a small scroll between the two animals that he picked up and read...

To the person who unsealed these two,

The two animals in front of you are called Sousuke Aizen and Gin Ichimaru; they are two Shingami that tried to over throw the Shingami King and his most devoted follower, Yamamoto due to the corruption they had spread. They will need to readjust to their bodies as they are currently trapped in their current forms, you are their Successor and they will guide you and protect you...I pray we meet soon and that I can give you the key to turn them back one day.

From: Kisuke Urahara

Naruto went wide-eyed at that as the names struck a chord inside him and then smiled as he thought "At least I won't be alone anymore..."

He gently picked up the two animals that stayed asleep, into his book bag when Iruka came into the clearing and said "Naruto, why did you steal the Forbidden Scroll from Hokage Tower?"

Naruto quickly put up his idiot mask and told Iruka "Hi Sensei! Are you here to grade me on passing the Bonus exam?"

Iruka blinked in shock then tackled Naruto to the ground as a giant throwing star embedded itself into Iruka's back; Naruto heard a startled noise from his book bag as Mizuki told him to give the scroll and Naruto smirked as he said "Lying Traitor! I knew there was no bonus exam and told the hokage who helped me plan this trap out."

Mizuki snarled then said "No wonder the Villagers hate you, demon! You're nothing but the Kyuubi in human form!"

Naruto went stiff at that and then Iruka told him to run with the scroll and not to let Mizuki get it, Naruto nodded as he grabbed his book bag and the scroll before running and hiding in a hollow tree. He then noticed his book bag moving and opened the top as the Tiger cub's head popped out with a confused look on its face; Naruto then pressed a finger to his lips and shushed the tiger as they heard the sounds of battle outside the tree. Naruto then heard Iruka's speech and grinned as he decided to use one of the Jutsu he had learned from the scroll on Mizuki.

10 minutes later...

Mizuki was in a rather deep crater after Naruto used the shadow clone Jutsu to beat the traitor's ass into the ground, Iruka was in shock and then smiled as he called over Naruto and told him to close his eyes. Naruto did as asked when he felt his goggles being removed and something else replacing it, Naruto opened his eyes and blinked in shock at seeing his goggles in Iruka's hand and then noticed Iruka's headband was missing. Naruto then felt around his forehead and found the headband around his own head, Naruto beamed at the older man when they both heard confused barks and mewls from inside the hollow tree.

Naruto quickly pulled the book bag out with both baby animals now wide awake and quickly checked them over to make sure they weren't harmed...

Aizen was highly confused as he remembered being sealed and everything before that but the last few "Days" were nothing but a blank to him, he looked up at the boy who was reaching for him and then said "Don't touch me!"

Aizen paused in confusion as he heard a cat hiss and then noticed a two tail silver Kitsune kit beside him, looking just as confused. Aizen then felt himself get picked up and brought a hand up to push himself from the child when he saw a white paw with light chocolate brown stripes in front of him instead of a hand. He froze as he tried flexing his hand and the paw flexed instead, he let out a loud yell of shock only for it to come out as a loud frightened yowl causing the boy to quickly pull him close and rub his ears that were twitching like mad. Aizen tried to resist the petting but found his body relaxing at the gentle touch; he was then placed down as the fox cub was picked up and examined. Aizen then felt a cool breeze blowing and shivered as it ruffled the fur he was now covered head to toe, in.

Aizen then felt himself being placed back into the bag with the fox Kit and then the bag was picked up as the boy walked with the older man to a large tower...

Two hours later...

Naruto sighed as he walked into the Apartment he lived in and gently set his book bag down since the two former shingami were still in there; he opened the top of the bag as the two Baby animals then managed to walk out and looked at him. Naruto sighed and said "This was found with you after I released the seal you were in..."

He showed them the letter as their eyes got wide from reading it and Aizen sat down as he thought in shock "We're STUCK like this?"

Gin watched his friend/leader as Aizen stood up and managed to walk over to Naruto; Naruto smiled at the cub and said "I'm sorry this happened to you but I guess we need to make the best out of a bad Situation..."

Aizen nodded when both his and Gin's stomach roared loudly and Naruto smiled as he asked "Hungry?"

Aizen and Gin nodded as the boy stood up and said "Sadly I only have instant Ramen at the moment because I haven't gone shopping yet."

Aizen mewled then paused as he sighed and tried jumping on to the floor to follow Naruto, he nearly had it when he over balanced and went tumbling head over heels into the coffee table. He could hear Gin snickering from the couch and blushed under his fur as he thought "This going to take some getting used to..."

5 minutes later...

Aizen was lapping at the warm broth that had surrounded the noodles while Gin stood beside him doing the same thing, Naruto seemed lost in thought as he ate his own Ramen as Aizen then yawned causing the boy to smile and say "It's late...we should head to bed..."

Aizen and Gin followed the young man into the bed room where he offered to make them a bed or they could sleep on the bed, Aizen looked at the simple futon that had a thin mattress and tapped the bed while shaking his head. Naruto understood and quickly got a large pet basket he had saved from being thrown out and fixed up, he then grabbed some extra sheets and piled them so they made a comfy "pillow" mattress in the basket. Aizen watched Naruto work as Gin then said "Sousuke? You ok?"

The tiger cub looked at his best friend and softly said "I'm just trying to wrap my head around everything that's happened tonight..."

Gin sighed and nodded as he told Aizen that he was still trying to process everything as well, suddenly Naruto's voice said "The bed's ready for you guys..."

Aizen looked at the simple basket and was the first to test it out, he found it was quite comfy and had more than enough room for both him and Gin. Aizen yawned as he turned three times and got comfortable as Gin curled up on the other side of the basket; Naruto smiled as he grabbed a small blanket for each former Shingami and gently covered them so they didn't get cold. He then lay down in his own bed and covered up, he stared up at the ceiling as he wondered if he would be able to show his true self now to the ignorant Villagers with the help of Aizen and Gin...

The next morning...

Aizen moaned softly as the sun shone into his eyes and yawned as he sat up, he raised a back leg and started to scratch his ears when he paused in shock before everything came rushing back. He sighed angrily and stood up as he stretched out his front before he noticed a full size mirror to his right; he got out of the basket and padded over to the mirror to look at himself. His eyes went wide at seeing the tiger cub in the mirror and he tilted his head just as the tiger cub did, Aizen growled softly at his reflection when he then suddenly realized their host was gone. He padded out of the room and into the living room just as Naruto came in with a lot of bags, Naruto noticed him and smiled as he said "Breakfast will be ready soon, I went and got some food for the next 3 weeks."

Aizen nodded as he followed the young man to the kitchen where Naruto put the food away except for a large pack of bacon, a carton of eggs and some hash browns, Naruto quickly began to bake the bacon then fry the eggs and hash browns. Aizen's nose twitched at the scent of bacon as Gin wandered out and said "What smells so good?"

Aizen told him as Gin licked his lips and said "This is going to taste good..."

Naruto then finished making everything and dished it out on three plates; he gave the two former Shingami their plates and sat down to eat his food. Breakfast was quiet as the three males ate, they then heard a knock on the door and Naruto got up and answered the door. To Naruto's surprise, he found no one there and made to close the door when he heard a surprised yowl from Aizen and a yelp from Gin. He turned to see a large black cat sitting behind him and Aizen looking at the cat in shock, Naruto closed the door and looked at the black cat as he said "Who are you, Cat-San?"

The cat then looked at him and said in a male voice "So you're the one who released Aizen and Gin last night..."

Naruto was surprised but nodded as she said "I came here to guide you to the shop where Urahara is...he has the key to return these two to somewhat normal."

Aizen looked at Yoruichi and then said "Yoruichi...how long as it been since we were sealed?"

She looked at him and said "Kisuke is the one who should tell you that, Aizen..."

Aizen and Gin nodded in understanding as Naruto sighed and got his book bag, Aizen and Gin quickly backed away from the bag as Naruto said "Unless you want to walk and try keeping up, this is the only other option..."

Gin and Aizen sighed as he had a point and they crawled into the bag, Naruto gently lifted the bag and left the top open for Aizen and Gin to see out of. Yoruichi and Naruto then headed outside and began to hurry to where Urahara was waiting for them...
