Prologue
As Kurama was scouting out the rest of the forest he had decided to reside in. He couldn't shake that dreadful feeling someone was watching him. He used his ninja skills he learned from his old sensei, (insert name.) to find there chakra. And figured out that the enemies, were somewhere east, about a quarter mile. "I wonder if its those pesky leaf ninjas again. They are always looking for trouble." as he thought sourly about the curious ninjas, he also thought he heard voices. "Hey! I am not! You need to learn to be more polite around a lady, Choji. Saying things like that!" a girls loud and quite competitive voice scolded. The person being scolded merely brushed the loud girls comment off. "Sure, sure what ever Ino, everybody knows that you are obsessive over every bit of detail, concerning looks. Heck! You even complain about Naruto's appearance, and every one knows that's a total waste of energy." "Grrrrah! Why do I even try to explain things to you? It goes in one ear, and out the other!" Ino shouted in annoyance. But just then the voices stopped. "Crap! They must have picked up my chakra signature! I really don't have time for petty squabbling!" Kurama thought, as he jumped up onto a branch of a sycamore. Right under Kurama's feet, were squad ten. Kurama had heard about them from the others that traveled through his territory. Asuma Sarutobi is the three's leader. The loud annoying girl is Ino. While the fat one is Choji, and last but not least the smart yet completely bored one, is Shikamaru. They were completely and utterly different. It baffled Kurama as to how or as to why, they where put on the same team. Well, he was about to find out. . .
"Well, well, what do we have here? Aren't you that demon ninja we keep hearing about?" Asuma inquired. "Fox Demon ninja, But that wouldn't be of any concern to you. Now would it?" Kurama replied, slyly. "Hmph, it is if I say so. And I do say so. So tell me, what brings you to the land of fire?" The strong Leader questioned. "I have come here, to only fine a suitable home for me to reside in. What's it to you?" Kurama obediently answered. Meanwhile, the three Jonin where curious about the stranger. He wore strange clothes, and had a funny accent. As well, as his personality. For a rogue ninja, he sure was talkative. Not to mention at ease. Even with squad 10, didn't he know how powerful they had become since the last war? Either way, they kept their guard up, not knowing about him was what made him so dangerous. "Ha, I am just asking out of mere curiosity. I didn't mean to offend you. But, you are twelve meters across the border. Even though that isn't to far into our land. You are violating protocol. So, you can either come with us to be questioned further, or you can get your ass out of my country." Asuma replied, getting ready for a fight. But, to his dismay Kurama did not object. Little did Asuma know the true motives behind Kurama's easy-going facade. "Hm, I suppose I could come with you. I don't mind." the Fox Demon answered, "As long as I get a green card." he added. "That, is all up to you, and the Hokage." Asuma stated, then with a wave of his hand, he started walking east, while his teammates and Kurama followed, suite.
Kurama was stunned, to say the least. He didn't know there was people near his forest. After they past the electric fence that had that dumb sign that warned of monsters and other dangourous creatures. Squad ten had brought him to the gates of which protected Konoha from, well people like Kurama. Any mysterious figure was a threat to the towns people. After they got to the gates the guards asked a series of questiones. "What's this 'Sarutobi? A prisoner, that's not like you at all. Having a bad day are we?" the one that had a bandage across his nose asked. Kurama never got his name. "Haha, you're hilarious. No, I am not having a bad day, thank you very much. I am taking him to Lady-Tsunade. That all right with you?" Asuma replied, freely showing amusment in his eyes. "Oh, ok then. But we will need his name and place of origin at the least." The one with the pinapple for hair which was later known as Iruka, requested. Giving Kurama and Asuma a stern , I can't tell you where I am from But, my name is Kurama. I do not intend to harm this village or anyone in it. All right?" the fox ninja answered, sending Iruka the same stern glare he had gotten before. Iruka seemed to way out the possibilities of Kurama lying, by shifting his shoulders and having his hand on his chin, in thought. "I guess that isn't up to me. Its up to the Hokage." Iruka answered honestly. So, it was all decided right then and there, Kurama would meet the Hokage.
"I don't appreciate being patronized! Now I will asked again, What-is-your-motive!" Tsunade yelled, saying the last bit syllable by syllable. "And I have already told you. I am a traveler, a peaceful one, for that matter. I do not intend to be of any threat to you, or your people. I merely wish to have a place to stay for the time being." Kurama answered, keeping a level head. The enraged woman only snorted, glaring a hole through Kurama's head. She sighed, and gave a quick nod towards her assistant, Shizune. The timid, yet out-spoken girl ran out of the room. To only come back inside with two other ninja. Black ops ninja at that. Kurama later learned they two were Kakashi and Yamato. "Kakashi, escort this man to interrogation! Immediately!" Tsunade ordered, after so rubbing her temples in annoyance. Kakashi obeyed and said his farewell to the angered lady. "Yes, Lady Tsunade." Kurama didn't really know what he was doing there, in a cell. It didn't make much sense the would keep him in a prison, when he didn't do anything. At least that was what everyone thought.
"Ha ha, you must have really pissed off the hokage to be down here." A cracked and dry voice said to Kurama, hiding in the shadows of the rusted cage he was in." Kurama really didn't want to deal with anyone at the moment. He merely wished to get everything straitened out so he could get out of the village. He was uneasy about this place, he couldn't quite understand his uneasiness, that pissed him off, big time. "Is that so? Then you must have pissed her off as well. For you would not be here if you didn't. Or, are you some sick spy sent by her to see what I would do." Kurama replied. He had thought about this very action earlier, when he could clearly see the Hokage didn't trust him. And when she didn't escort him to the prison herself, it was a good possibility that she would do something as such as sending a spy to watch him, since there are no gaurds at the door to the prison room. As Kurama was running through the options he had to play against the shady figure, he had noticed yet another person pacing back and forth in his cage. Like a hungry tiger that would turn anybody into prey if they got the chance. It was hard to get any definite features but, the fox yokai could tell he was at least six foot eight, muscular build and gleaming eyes staring right him. "Oh I am not a spy I assure you that. But him on the other hand, just might be." the previous prisoner told Kurama, a slight hint of amusement in his old, cracked voice. Kurama was confused to say the least. What on earth was this man talking about. Unless, the old man was in cahoots with the beastly figure, he wouldn't know that. Or, he was a spy for someone else, that wished to get insights on the Leaf village. Kurama was yet again caught up in his own thoughts. Not paying attention to the fact that Kakashi and Yamato had come back to the prison. For what Kurama wasn't sure, But it wasn't good.
