Chp 2
Kyubbi woke next morning. It was so bright, sunny, the air was sweet with blossom. How sickening Throwing away the quilt the demon ran to the mirror.
- OH MY GOD! What have you done to me! - Naruto howled. Kyubbi pouted.
"Well it was either this or that showy orange glow and you said be discreet"
- But you're a GIRL! - Kyubbi looked at her reflection. Orange hair fell to her waist in waves. Long dark lashes outlined her crimson eyes. Her face was delicate and pale, three hair thin lines perched on each cheek.
"Shame I couldn't get rid of those" she murmured, stroking a finger across her cheek. She was the same height as Naruto but thinner, his pyjama top was much too big and had slipped down one shoulder. Naruto meanwhile was freaking out.
- I've got work today! How are my teammates gonna react! – Kyubbi sighed and headed for the shower as Naruto continued his nervous jibberings. The hot water felt good, but this didn't last long as it was quickly used up and she found herself drenched in freezing cold.
"God is your shower really this unpredictable?" she screamed at Naruto as she towelled her hair dry. - Yes - was her only reply she rolled her eyes No wonder you never shower. She sifted through his drawers trying to find something that would fit. She opted for one of his black T's with a squiggly orange swirl and black and black cargo pants. They were slightly too big.
"Right! First things first."
- Breakfast? -
"No! Shops!" Kyubbi grabbed the creepy frog purse and leapt out the window. - you could use the door you know?- as the red head crawled down the wall and sped toward the early opening shops. She bought two belts, one black the other orange with a fox buckle. - Did I mention discretion? - The blonde quickly shut up as the nine-tails went into a bra shop. Trying not to embarrass the boy to much she speedily bought one and left for the apartment. In an effort to calm her jinjuriki she used the door, well failed to. -The door's still locked - Kyubbi could just see the blonde grinning. She snarled, annoyed, and went in by the window again. She felt better after breakfast though.
"Ramen does taste good! No wonder you stuff yourself like there's no tomorrow" Naruto wasn't listening though. -We must have been hours! The team is probably waiting-
"Unlikely. It's only seven."
- What how early did you get me up! -
"Well I had taken over as soon as it was midnight, but decided only to get up as soon as it got light" Imagining the kids face she continued "Remember kit you've got a lifetime I, on the other hand, only have 24 hours and right now" She finished the last of her ramen "I'm going for a walk" She grabbed his rucksack, chucking in purse, jacket, hairbrush, mp3 and grabbed the keys. Pointedly leaving by the door this time. There were more people outside now and she jogged lightly past, two hours till she had to meet with her containers team. She set her mp3 on shuffle and put the headphones in her ears. Two hours till it all kicks off.
