Authoress note: OK guys here's the second chappie! I want to say that I got the idea for the foxes looks (The gold fur and blue eyes) from green-gold-fox's story grin of the fox. Now for thank yous! Konoka (I hope you don't mind but I'm just gonna call you that OK?) I'm glad you like my story so far. I hope this update was fast enough for you lol. Don't plan on them being so frequent though because I'm making this up as I go. Leo (I'm just gonna call you Leo if it's OK cause it's shorter lol) I know I LOVE foxes to! (Huggles Naruto in fox form) As for their ages...hm...good question lol. How about Dakota's...19 and Naruto's 18. He's a Chuunin (Did I spell that right? I suck a remembering how to spell this stuff...) but she isn't since she left before the exams and hasn't been back. But don't think she's weak! If she wanted she could become a chuunin she just hasn't gone back to konaha to take the test. One more thing she isn't stronger than Naruto so don't worry about that lol.Well that's all for now everyone! R and R please!


There in the water stood the girl. She wore no clothes. I felt my eyes bug out of my head. All thoughts left my mind except one. 'Please don't let this be a dream.' Without realizing it I crept down to the side of the river and crouched behind a rock.

The girl had no clue I was there as far as I could tell. She had her back to me and was walking deeper in to the river then she submerged herself completely. I peered cautiously around the rock and watched as she surfaced and continued to bathe. This was a first for me. Unlike Kakashi sensei, who I had caught peeping on the girls at the hot springs, I normally didn't see this kind of stuff.

A few minutes latter she came back to the shore and I ducked behind the rock. Hey I wasn't that big of a pervert! It wasn't until she was dressed that I crept out from behind the rock and made my presence known.

"Oh hello there. I thought you would have gone off by now." In response I went up to her and placed a paw on her leg.

She looked down at me then knelt down. "What is it? Do you want to stay here with me?"

'What else can I do except wander around this forest, get lost, and end up dead?' I thought.

"Well if you want to stay with me that's OK. I'm known as Dakota. Now we need to find a name for you."

'Hold it I already have a name!'

She studied me for a few minutes then said "Well you're an unusual fox so I guess I should give you a special name…."

'Huh so I'm a fox?' Go figure. First I have a fox sealed in to me then I somehow get turned in to one.

"Oh I know! How about Raidon?" I cocked my head at her. "Uh….don't like it? OK then how about……Skye (Pronounced Sky-Uh)? Cause your eyes remind me of the sky."

'Well it's better than Raidon….' In response I swished my tail back and forth.

"Like that huh? Well then Skye it is!" As she stood and gathered her belongings she said "Today I'm moving on to another place so we gotta get back so I can pack up the rest of my stuff." I followed her through the forest and watched as she made it look like she had never been in the spot where she had camped. She slipped on her backpack then scooped me up in to her arms.

'Hey I can walk you know!'

Dakota placed me on her shoulder and said "Make sure you hold on." Then she jumped in to the trees.

After a while my mind began to wander. 'How did this happen?' What I could remember is that I had been on my way home from a mission when I was suddenly ambushed. There were a lot of ninja's and they were strong……then……then there was an explosion. Is that when it happened? It had to of been because the next thing I knew I was waking up in Dakota's camp. 'It's a good thing she found me……or else I'd be dead by now.' Sighing I brought my self out of my thoughts in time to see Dakota jumping down from the trees. 'What's up?' I asked but it came out as a small yip.

"Time to set up camp for the night Skye." She said as she sat me down.

'Night? Jeez it's been that long since we set out?'

As we ate dinner she began to talk to herself. "Well If I'm right there's a village about thirty miles from here…..if I keep going at this pace then we should be there soon."

'Is it a good idea to keep moving this fast?' Oh well it was her decision not mine.

After she cleaned up the remains of dinner she unrolled her sleeping bag and slipped in to it. "Hey Skye come on and get some sleep." I sat there and stared at her. She had to be kidding. Did she really want me to sleep next to her? "Come on Skye we're setting out early tomorrow so we need sleep."

I cautiously walked up to her and she instantly scooped me up and placed me in the sleeping bag with her. 'There's no way I can sleep like this!' I thought franticly as I began to try and get away.

Dakota laid down and wrapped her arm around me. "I'm glad I found you Skye……It gets kinda lonely being alone all the time…." She said as she fell asleep.

I watched her for a few minutes. Sighing I laid down and closed my eyes. Why did I do this? I have no clue…..I was strong enough to wiggle out from under her arm but I just stayed put.
