~The Truth Revealed~
***
Naru Evans, an almost 5 year old girl, was brought up in the most horrible place imaginable… the Dursleys. From the outside it appeared as if they were just like any other normal muggle family, but that was not exactly true. You see, apart from their overfed son, Dudley, they had a niece and a nephew living with them, that is if you could call that living.
The boy, Harry Potter, was very skinny, a bit too short for his age. He had dark red hair and warm chocolate eyes. He also had a most peculiar scar on his forehead. Harry always had to do all the chores, because all the strange things always happened to him and his aunt and uncle simply couldn't have anything unnatural happen to him. Out of fear that he might do anything serious when there would be other people around and just because of their hatred for the boy he was forced to live in the cupboard under the stairs.
Naru was different in many ways. First of all she was perfectly 'normal' in Dursleys' understanding, as she never did anything freaky, so they pretty much forgot she even existed. The girl had long silver hair and eyes blue as the sky on a cloudless day, but when she was very angry or terrified they would get darker, so her mood could be judged just by looking into her eyes. She was very calm and smart. For some reason Naru looked nothing like either of her relatives. Even her facial structure was more Japanese than English. Yet the Dursleys were wrong, as there was one very special thing about Naru – there was a seal on her stomach that contained the greatest youkai in existence, Sesshoumaru no Inu. Only the girl was yet unaware of the fact. Though that was about to change.

Naru found herself in a very strange place. Everything was in twilight. She knew she was dreaming, but she couldn't wake up. The girl felt that something important was about to happen, that there was something in this place that she had to find. She wished that there would be a bit more light and much to her torches appeared on the walls. She wasn't overly shocked since she knew it was only a dream. Finally she saw a huge room that had bars on instead of a door and on the lock there was sort of kanji. Curios and excited she walked closer. Yet there was nothing behind the bars, or so it seemed. The blackness that she saw seemed alive and when she was very close to it, two enormous eyes opened. The girl fell backwards from shock and fright, her own eyes now were about the same color as the ocean before a storm. "Who are you?" – she stuttered, her voice trembling and she herself was shaking lightly. Immediately the eyes began shrinking and soon there was a huge wolf with twelve swishing tails and a blue crescent on his forehead.
- I am Sesshoumaru no Inu, the taiki-youkai of the Western lands.
- Why are you in my dream?
- We are not in your dream, cub, we're in your mind.
- So you're a segment of my imagination?
- Uh… no.
- Then it's still a dream. There is no other way for you to be in my mind.
- Damn it, Namikaze Kiri! You have the brilliance of your mother and the genius of your father and yet you're so limited!
- Namikaze Kiri? Who's that?
- You.
- No, my name is Evans Naru.
- Actually it's not. Have you ever seen your documents? Have you ever made a DNA test?
- No, but then again I never had reasons to doubt who I am.
- And now?
- Now I'm not so sure anymore.
- So in your opinion you're just a usual girl?
- Yes. I mean strange stuff happens to my cousin Harry all the time, but not to me.
- There are two reasons for that. One, Harry Potter is a wizard and two, you're not related.
- A wizard? but…
- No buts. You will have to accept that all of what your so called 'relatives' told you was a lie.
- But why?
- I, the most powerful of all youkai, am sealed within you, that makes you a jinchuuriki…
- … human sacrifice…
- something like that, but it also gives you my chakra.
- Chakra? What's that?
- It's what ninja techniques are based on, a mix physical and spirit energy.
- What do ninja have to with this?
- Everything, because you were born into a powerful shinobi clan.
- Then how did I get here?
- You were stolen from Konohagakure no Sato, the strongest hidden shinobi village of the Fire country, short after I was sealed into you.
- Stolen? By whom? Why?
- Be quiet, we don't have much time. As I was saying, I was sealed into you. Then that old man came and took you away while everyone else was fighting off Kyubii.
- Old man? Kyubii?
- An old wizard called Albus Dumbledore. He wanted our power to defeat some nutcase like Orochimaru, the biggest traitor Konoha has ever seen, so he kidnapped you. And as for Kyubii… well, he is the nine-tailed demon fox lord. He once gave the Uchiha clan their do-jutsu and when he saw how arrogant and corrupted they've become he decided to destroy the clan.
- Ok, I think I get it, though you'll have to give me a few history lessons. So now that I know the truth, how do I get back?
- You don't. Not yet. First I'll train in the arts of a ninja. Then I'll let you sign the four summon scrolls that under my command, then take you to meet a few other summon bosses, summons are dead useful.
- What exactly are summons?
- Summoning Animals. You sign the summoning contract if the summon boss agrees and are able to summon the animals, the size and power depends on how much chakra you use. Every person has a natural summon, for you it's dogs and inu-youkai, it's easier for you to summon those.
- Oh, that's great. Can't wait.
- Good. But first, since you'll soon wake up, in order for me to teach you normally, we can sign a blood contract.
- What will it do?
- Well, to put it simply, it will let me out, while still keeping me tied to you. You will also keep 80% of my chakra, so I'll be weak for a week or two.
- Ok, let's do this.
- You sure?
- Yes, besides, with you around the Dursleys won't be as bad as they are to Harry and me.
- True. Do as I do.

When the girl came back to herself, she just sat on the bed for a while, comprehending all the changes that happened over the night. At first she thought it was a dream, but the huge white dog the size of a horse with a blue crescent on its' forehead told her that it wasn't a dream. Naru, or Kiri as she now thought of herself of, lifted her nightgown and saw that the seal was indeed changed and a lot. Not being able to stop herself she reached her hand and petted the dog. Sesshoumaru yawned widely, baring a set of very scary perfectly white teeth. Kiri shivered, yet smiled none the less.
- Well, good morning to you.
- You too…why exactly are you staring like that?
- You're a dog and dogs aren't supposed to talk.
- Well, I'm not a dog, I'm an inu-youkai, just I become a dog when I'm low on chakra, I refill my chakra reserves faster in this form.
- Oh. So, when do we go back to Konoha?
- As soon as I finish training you and after we pay an Albus Dumbledore a visit, so around your 11th birthday.
- That's five years from now!
- Trust me with all the stuff I'm going to put you through, that's too little time.
- It can't be that tough…
- Oh yes it can, don't forget you're talking to a demon lord here.
- And how would I possibly forget about something like that?
- Well, anything's possible…Back to the point, you're female, so when we changed the seal it gave you some… unforeseen bonuses.
- What's that supposed to mean?
- Well, it made you a half demon.
- WHAT????
- Calm down, Kiri. Relax. It's nothing overly noticeable.
- What is it?
- Well, just the youkai stripes and moon along with very heightened senses.
- It'll take some time to get used to, but I can live with that.
- I thought as much. But the bonus is that your chakra capacity has increased greatly with the sudden influx of my chakra. Therefore your potential strength is that of a 15 tailed demon.
- Is that very strong?
- You'll understand. But as I've noticed you're a very fast learner, you will have no trouble. First thing, we or rather I'm going to create a bloodline limit for you.
- Bloodline limit? What is that?
- It's special ability that runs in the family and is gifted by a biju, or a youkai. It's called a kekei genkai. There are two of them in Konoha. The cursed sharingan of the Uchihas and the Hyugas' blessed byakugan. The one I'm going to give will be much stronger.
- And biju, what are those?
- Tailed demons. There are nine of them, from Ichibii Shukaku no Tanuki to the Kyubii no Kitsune. Most of them have been already captured and sealed into human beings. The Shukaku is in Sunagakure no Sato, while the Kyubii – in Konoha.
- I never got to ask you.
- What?
- Why were you sealed in the first place?
- I knew this would eventually come up… To tell you the truth, I was just tired of the eternity of loneliness. This way I'm never alone.
- That's good to know.
