Hey, it's me again! And with me comes a second chapter. I forgot to mention that in the first one, I'll probably add one chapter every weekend till I haven't any left. I now have... um... I guess 6 chapters and I'll try to write more so you won't be forced to wait to long for a new one. Thanks for the comments and have fun with this one.

Disclaimer: Don't own Naruto/Bleach or any other anime I may mention.

The twin I met

Natsuki was running down the streets with absolutly no idea were to start looking for a certain blond haired girl. Sure Ichiraku would be a great idea, if it wasn't for the fact that it was well past midnight judging by the moon. Having a Kitsune on your head sure had it's perks...

Well... what now? I know how her house should look like... but I can't find it this way... if I could jump onto the roofs it would make things so much easier...

And what stops you from doing so?... oh wait, scratch that. Okay, I think it's time for a short lesson in using Chakra. That's the easiest part. In your world, chakra wasn't developed yet, but here you just have to concentrate on it. It's... hard to describe, you can just FEEL it.

With this rather... unique explanation the little bluehaired girl did just that. And god knows how, it actually worked! It's like moving you muscles, you have NO idea how it's working, but it just does. So now feeling the waterlike substance she guided it to her legs and immediately felt the increase of speed and power. She had to be careful not to just bounce of the street and into a wall or something.

Now that's more like it, thought I can already feel the strain... chakracontrol training has to be done SOON.

Yuki just nodded. So using her newfound powers she took careful aim and leapt onto one of the roofs. It was wonderful. If anyone had told her before how good it would feel to jump around like this, she wouldn't have believed it. The cool wind of the night caressing her tender skin, giving her a pleasant shudder. The free view over the beautiful town and the dazzeling nightsky. Just then she made a mental note to go up to the Hokagemonument one of these nights. But just as she spotted the all to well known big orange-red house, some kind of dread filled her. Something wasn't right, something didn't feel right.

It's a scent you're picking up, your senses are developing.

What scent... She really didn't want to ask that... she had a pretty good idea what that would be.

And she should be right... It's fear. No, not just fear, it's pure terror and it's coming from this house.

I just knew something like this would happen... and I don't even have a weapon yet.

Oh don't be so sure about that... Yuki sounded nearly amused as she said that in a purring tone.

Again a feeling of dread washed over Natsuki as she asked with a certain amout of discomfort in her inner voice What exactly do you mean...

You'll see. Okay, the fox was DEFENITLY amused and she absolutely didn't like it! But she had to put that thoughts aside as she now stood in fornt of the building. Gulping once and being a bit winded, she took a wiff of the newly dubbed scent. She could pinpoint it more or less, but it was enough to gave her a general direction. So running up the stairs she soon found herself in front of a ... door? Or what ever the mangled piece of wood once was. She kicked it in, only to freeze on the spot at what she was seeing. She had expected something bad. But this was... beyond bad. This couldn't even be called a dump anymore. Not even a dump looked that bad. But the worst was the scream... a scream filled with utter terror coming from a little child. There, in a corner, shivering beyond believe cowered a little blond haired girl. Cuts all over her body and tear streaks on her face. A tall man standing in front of her, holding bloody kunais in his hands. His eyes looked panicked as he whirled around to see who interrupted his ordered torture session. But he relaxed soon after he realized that it was just another little girl. Well, that was until said little girls honey colored eyes began to glow. The fox on her head seemed to look quite pissed off too and soon began to speak with a deep malicious voice: "What are you doing here, foolish mortal."

Finding his backbone to be on a holydaytrip he stammered a bit as he tried to form a coherent sentence. It didn't really work out and he studdered horribly: (I'm going to write normal, but he's stuttering it just disturbs me to w-write l-l-like th-this.) "I was hired by someone to torture and kill this girl. I'm a nuke-nin from Mizugakure."

Haa, people really get talkaktive if you give them some well placed killing intent sponsored by Yuki.

"Oh? And you thought it would be a good idea? Well, let me tell you something. It wasn't."

As Natsuki, or to be precise, Yuki said this, nine bushy sky blue tails sprouted from Natsukis tellbone together with two long kitsune-ears that poke out of her hair, both ears and tails sporting white tips. Her pupils got slitted while her fangs and claws grew longer and sharper and to top it all, three whisker like marks appeared on each of her cheeks.

Congratulation, kit. You just awoke your first tail and all your kitsune features, thought it sure will be a pain in the ass tomorrow to get used to your new eyes, ears and nose.

That's all nice and dandy... but couldn't you have WARNED me that it would hurt so FUCKING MUCH?! Damn... that was nearly as bad as the incident in rainbowhell... I'm just glad I can't scream.

The nuke-nin was watching all this in terror, he was sure he had heared that this stupid Yondaime killed that tailed foxthing, but here it was, standing in all it's glory... well not exactly since it was a little girl, but hey, who cares for details when confronted with a legendary beast. His backbone seemed to observe the situation from somewhere and deemed it wise to stay far, FAR away. Well... anyways. The nuke-nin was just about to piss his pants as not-so-cute-at-the-moment Natsuki decided she had cursed enough and went to deal with this little rat.

"You tried to kill a citizen of konohagakure, a defenceless child nonetheless... and nuke-nins are to be killed on sight anyways. I think it's quite clear what we should do with you." With the help of her little foxmentor she increased the killing intent focused on the nin a bit more. Using the temporary enhancement from the new demonic chakra running through her, she speed towards him in the blink of an eye. The poor guys eyes seemed to get impossibly big as the little girl swept him from his legs. Placing one foot on his chest she locked her still glowing eyes with his, glaring at him.

"Sayonara."

She simply ripped out his troath and threw him out of one of the crushed windows before he even could begin to bleed on the already messy floor. Cutting of the flow of demonic power her eyes stopped glowing and her fangs and claws got a bit more dull. The rest stayed thought. So when she went to the shivering form of one Uzumaki Naru her nine tailes began to encircle her and the girl as she hugged the blond.

"It's alright, he's gone and you are safe. Please calm down." The soothing words the little fox provided didn't help much. Instead they seemed to break the dam that was holding the tears barely at bay. Soon the little girl was crying hard, soaking shirt and fur of the little kitsune. She couldn't do much else, the extrem usage of chakra had left her drained and weak. It was afterall the first time she ever used chakra. She had practically been ozing it when she used it. One hell of a lot chakra didn't help if it was totally wasted due to no control over it... So the two of them sat there, Natsuki holding little Naru-chan tight, rocking them both slightly while Yuki tried to calm her with cooing and purring sounds.

This nin was really weak... to freeze up like that in front of a little girl... what exactly did you do? Use every bit of killing intent you have?

Yeah, pretty much. It's kinda easy to freeze people up with the right amount of killing intent. And as you said before, this one was weak. Probably just higher genin.

Well... whatever I'm going to sleep... note to self: chakracontrol second thing in the morning.

Second?

Got to tell her and merge her with Kasei. The sooner the better.

True...

And so Natsuki drifted off to sleep, feeling a bit of happienss as Narus breathe evened out and her heartbeat slowed down.

It was the next morning that little Naru-chan woke up, to feel a comfortable wramth around her. It felt safe. She felt safe. It was strange and she couldn't really explain it, but something was there, keeping her warm and giving her a feeling of belonging. When she opened her crystal blue eyes she was greeted with the sight of fur. A lot of blue fur. She tried to move around to see were said fur may came from, when she noticed two arms around her waist holding her tight to a small body, probably as big as her own. Not wanting to loose the warm fuzzy feeling inside her she decided to wait till this person was going to wake up and snuggled closer. Sadly this woke up said person and made her steer, streching her sore muscles and letting her spine and neck pop a bit.

"Damn, remember me not to sleep on the floor again." stated the little blue fox, she now noticed was sitting on top of said little girls head. Wait, did that fox just speak? Well, what better way to find that out then to ask.

"Uh, did that fox just speak?" her voice was a bit sore from the events of last night. Even thought she couldn't really remember much of it. But she knew this person saved her and she was grateful for that.

"Yeah, I spoke. But actually what I'm saying Natsuki wants to say." At this point Natsuki waved with her hand smiling warmly at the little blond. "You see, Natsuki lost her voice in an accident and since we both share a mental link, I will speak her words. So don't wonder if I speak of myself in third person." Yuki ended her explanation with a foxy grin and a joyful swish of her tail.

"Uuuuhu." She stared, that was strange. But she wasn't one to question strange things if they involved saviors or cute foxes. But wait, since this was both did that cancel each other out?... Yeah most likely!

"Were did you get her? Can I have one too? What's your name anyway and why did you safe me? And why do you look like me?" Naru took a deep breath after bombarding Natsuki with so many questions only to stare expectantly at her. Natsuki looked a bit puzzeled before Yuki provided her with an image of herself and Naru. It was true. They both looked exactly alike, well except for the hair and eye color, these two were switched. Oh, and of course the tails and ears, but she planned on changing that anyways.

So instead of answering her questions she got a serious look on her face. One that made Naru a bit uneasy.

"Naru-chan, I have a few things to tell you first before I answer any of your questions." She locked eyes with the blond girl. "But I have to take you inside your mind." And that she did. The Yamanaka Clan may be prided for their unique mind control techniques, but to demons it was second nature. Escpecially the kitsune had taken an intereset in this subject as they were known as trickster and pranckster. So using one of her basic skills with the help of a bit of extra chakra and Yuki they were soon standing in a dripping, dirty, dank hallway.

"Uhm, were are we?" Naru asked a bit uneasy as she shifted her wieght from one foot to the other.

"In your mind. Naru, you need to know this. The reason why this stupid village hates you so much..." This spiked the intereset of the blond ball of energy and she whirled around to lock her gaze with Natsukis. "Why." was all she said, it sounded a bit desperate.

"As you may or may not know, five years ago, the Yondaime Hokage fought against the Kyuubi no Kitsune that was attacking Konohagakure." As she began to tell the tale that was told so many times before in her world and probably would be told in this one, too, they began to walk. Seemingly in a random direction, but Natsuki followed the red pipes leading to what she knew would be the cage of Kasei. Yukis, and therefor her brother. "Now even he couldn't defeat an enraged senseless tailed beast. So he was forced to seal him away. But there was a catch. No thing, no plant was strong enough to hold such power at bay. Only one thing could. A newborn baby. So he started the seals that would litteraly seal a fate. A fate of a babygirl. Your fate." She stopped there as she could feel Naru freeze up. Her blue eyes were wide with shock and her body was stiff.

"He wished for you to be seen as a heroine. For holding the beast that nearly whiped out Konoha... but this idiotic villagers and this damned council... well..."

"At least I know... and it explains the weird spiral thing on my stomach. Oh and why the villagers always call me a demon." She stated solemnly, her eyes getting downcast and shadowed by her blond bangs.

"Don't be sad about it. They don't know the whole story. They don't know who the Kyuubi no Kitsune were. What they stood for." Again curiosity got the better of Naru as she watched the walking form before her.

"What do you mean?"

Natsuki sighed: "There are acutally 45 tailed beasts. Nine clans with one member for each element. I am the the mistress of ice and water, proud member of the kyuubis tribe. Yuki no Natsuki." She bowed before Naru at this point only to raise shortly after that. Smiling a bit, she again led the way to the nearing cage.

"Now, each tribe sends one member into this realm for a certain amount of time to help keeping the worlds balance. But over the years of war of power hungry men, this information got lost. And now we are nothing more then dangerous demons. Only good enough to be sealed away and used for power. Well in the humans eyes at least." She stopped, they stood infront of an enormous cage. Thought Naru didn't notice it since she was to busy to comprehend all this information. But as she did she came to one question... well, one for now.

"So why did the Kyuubi attack?" she asked looking up only to stare at the giant gates.

"Well, that's what I want to find out myself. Oi! Kasei! Get your ass over here! We have to speak! NOW!!!" she roared, her voice reaching it's peak at the last part. Soon two glazed red eyes got into view, followed by a big red fured kitsune head as big as the ones on the hokage monument. It sounded sad: "Another illusion... my sister... my dear sister, how will you die now? I don't want to see it anymore... I can't stand it anymore..." The once roaring voice of this fiery beast was weak and drained of the power it once held leaving only a shell.

Rage filled Yuki and soon this was mirrored by Natsuki as she realized what had happend to her fiery brother. He was tortured by a genjutsu, probably showing him his loved ones being slaughtered in several ways. Luckily, for an outsider, this was easy to break. Again gathering her chakra, more then needed but that wasn't important now, she yelled a strong "KAI!". Kasei collapsed.

"Okay... the best way would be to do it now... he needs to get out of here..." Mumbeling this she turned around to Naru, who stood there awestruck, staring at the shivering form of the giant fox. Soon thought, her attention was redirected to Natsuki.

"Naru, there is more to this story then I told you yet. Since two of the tailed beasts were sealed away the balance is barely kept. With me here it got a bit easier, but we need both tailed beasts back. The shiki fuin that was placed on you prevents me from simple freeing him seeing as it would kill both of you, and I don't want either of you to die so soon. There is another possebility... Yuki, the original Icemistress was merged with me since she couldn't simply enter this realm as she was. Now I took her place and she's inside me to guide me. I plan on doing the same with you and Kasei over there. But, I need your permission to do so." She kneeled in front of Naru, looking nearly desperate. "Uzumaki Naru, are you willing to take over the place of the fiery Kasei, member of the Kyuubis tribe. Bear in mind, you won't gain any bindings in form of responsebilitys. Your life will continue like it did, well not exactly, you will gain the power of a kyuubi. Not at once, but you will have the potential to unlock it. And of course I will stay with you either way. Make your choice. If you decline, I will have to figure out a way to get him out of you. Thought that may be extremly painful, more so then the merging. Yes, it would hurt. Quite a lot, but not as much as the unsealing would. Again, make your choice."

Naru looked over at the weakened form of Kasei, then her eyes locked with Natsukis. She had made her decision long ago. She would help anyone who truly cared for her and even thought she was only five years old, she had learned to read people like open books. One had to, considering that a whole village seemed to be against her. That was another reason. This village seemed so stupid now that she knew, she wanted to help. She wanted to help her twin. She wanted to help the one being aside from the Hokage, that was ever nice to her. That all helped her to decide... and the little fact that she would be stronger! She would beat any idiot ninja that thought, he could kill her off easily! So she made a wise choice, she nodded.

This brought a wide true smile onto Natsukis and Yukis face alike.

"Thank you, Naru-chan." She hugged the girl tightly a single tear running down her cheek. The blond girl shook her head, she knew when to do the right things and when to trust a person. Life taught her these lessons way to early.

"I want to help. And you three need my help, so I'll do what I have to." It was then, that Natsuki took a step back again to smile one last time at her before the procedure would begin. She dug into her poked, kami sure was a tricky guy, how he managed to give her an ofuda that would stay with her mind instead of her body... well he's a god... they do that sort of things.

She jumped up to the little paper seal and added her own scrap of paper to it. Soon, the room exploded in red and blue chakra, while Natsuki was forced out of Narus mind, she herself stayed and let the red waves wash over her.

Outside of Narus mind Natsuki stared at the blonds body as it began to pulsate with a minimal amount of demonic chakra, just enough to change her. Her muscles bulged and ripped only to regrow stronger, same goes for her bones. Her eyes changed only slightly from the outside, but the blue haired kitsune knew they were improved as the slitted pupils narrowed. Her fangs grew a tiny little bit as did her claws, but they were dull much like Natsukis. It seemed that Naru was exposed long enough to Kasei that she earned her first tail already, and so one could see nine bushy golden blond tails and two equally colored kitsune-like ears being added to the young girls body. Her eyes closed again, not one scream escaping her troath.

It was a few seconds later that she shot up, only to regret it while holding her head. Thankfully Yuki had darkened the windows the night before and sounds were low since it was still early morning. Otherwise she would have to not only close her nose but ears and eyes, too like Natsuki was doing a few hours ago. She had woken up earlier only to get assaulted by her new senses. Thought after a short lesson about the demonic chakra flowing through them she was able to tune them down enough to make it bearable. And so Naru got the very same lesson together with the one of the Kuchiyose no Jutsu.

When the life on the streets of Konoha started, two young girls, looking exactly alike up to every detail, the only difference being hair and eye color which were switched, and a blue fured fox were watching a red fured one that was lying on the floor, seemingly asleep. Kasei was now only a spirit and the shiki fuin had vanished since it's contract was fulfilled, hold the Kyuubi at bay till it is absorbed by the container. That had happened so there was no reason to exist. Now he could be summoned just like Yuki. But he had yet to wake up...

Well that's it for now, hope ya liked it at least a little. A review would be nice. Till next time
