The disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, seriously, not even one manga. (cries)
"Y-Y-Y-Y-Y…You're the Kyuubi!" Naruto stuttered pointing a finger at the large creature before him.
"I suppose I am." The creature said, a small amount of amusement entering the fox's voice at it spoke. The strange thing was that the voice wasn't harsh and booming like Naruto thought a demon's should be. Instead it was almost soft and melodious. It was kind of beautiful he admitted in the back of his mind. "I have to admit that I am shocked at seeing you here so early but…after what happened…I can understand why."
"What do you mean?" Naruto demanded as he regained some of his strength and shot up to his feet glaring at the huge beast before him. Stalking up to the cage looking at the creature in disgust and hatred. He began shaking his head as he remembered everything that happened and the shock that the mob had actually tried to kill him this time. He was feeling other things to, things he didn't understand.
"I truly am sorry kit for everything that you've been through." The fox said sadly as it shook its head from side to side. "You are such a kind and gentle girl, you didn't deserve any of the crap those…humans…put you through."
"You better get your eyes checked, I'm a boy!" Naruto snapped glaring up at the beast sealed in the cage. "Where are we anyways?"
"We are in your mind, kit. You finally passed out from blood loss." The fox sighed lowering itself down to lie before Naruto just through the bars, resting it's head on its two front paws that were now crossed under its chin. "And as for what you are, look down at your reflection in the water around you and really look."
Refusing to listen to the fox the blonde crossed his arms to glare daggers at the fox for several minutes before a bad feeling started to creep into the boy's head. Ever since he found himself in this place something had been bothering him, something felt wrong. Steeling his nerves the blonde let his arms fall to his sides and looked down into the water and froze in shock. There staring back was him but he wasn't wearing any clothes revealing some slight changes. There were curves where there shouldn't be and it was missing.
Reaching a hand down to feel between his legs he couldn't find the thing that defined him as a male but there was something there that was vastly different. Realization dawned on him as to what that sharp pain was that he felt when they tied him to the bed. Either they had cut it off and stabbed him there or something changed him and…and they were shoving something up inside of there.
Feeling tears well up in his eye he began shaking and didn't bother fighting the pair of hands that reached out and pulled him through the bars. He didn't fight the lap he was pulled into or the two soft mounds that he could feel being pressed into him as his head was drawn to rest on one of them as a gentle hand stroked his short, spiky blonde hair.
"It's okay to cry, Kit. Especially after what they did to you." The fox said drawing the blonde's eyes up to look into crimson eyes of a very beautiful woman who was stroking his hair. She was also naked but at the moment it really didn't matter much. "I'm here for you."
"Why should I trust you?" The boy asked, holding back sobs as he glared into the gentle eyes.
"I honestly can't give you any reasons to trust me, all I can do is give you comfort and for now try to heal some of your wounds why we are here." The fox said, an even sadder look crossing the woman's face alerting the blonde to something being wrong.
"What's wrong?" Naruto choked out staring at the eyes of the woman holding him.
"I…I'm trying my best to heal you." The woman said after hesitating for several moments, "But if that knife isn't removed from your stomach I won't be able to do much about it. The poison coating the blade is preventing me from repairing the damage and I can't heal you around the blade with it there."
"Why do you care?" Naruto asked quietly, his normally somewhat hyper voice now sounding dead.
"Because kit, I care for you. I may be a demon but I'm not a monster. Those people in the village are more of a monster than I ever was." The fox said, her voice growling a little.
"You're the one who attacked the village!" Naruto growled pushing away from the woman with some of his anger returning, a little of the fire returning to the blonde's eyes.
"I was the one who was attacked first by that Danzou creep!" The woman snapped before calming down. A small giggle threatened to escape her lips as she noticed how red the blonde was turning and it wasn't from anger. Said blonde quickly turned away in embarrassment.
"W-Why are you n-naked anyways? And why am I?" Naruto asked as she blushed even more.
"Aw kit, are you saying you don't like what you see? Am…am I that ugly?" The woman asked in mock hurt causing Naruto to splutter out trying to find a retort but the woman took pity on her. "Easy there kit, we are both girls anyways, but to answer your question I have no real control here. Thanks to the kunai it damaged the first seal it looks like which gives you access to my chakra and I can force some through to heal your wounds as well as letting us talk like this. As I said, I don't really have any real control here. Sure I can still change my form but I can't create things here like clothing, only you can do that since this is in fact your mindscape."
"I-I control everything here then? I can make anything I want here?" The blonde asked before scrunching her eyes closed for a few seconds before his normal orange jumpsuit appeared on her as well as a second one appearing on the older woman. The older woman had to admit she was impressed by the young girl so quickly being able to do that without even having to be instructed on how to. And those fools that call themselves teachers says Naruto was stupid. As if.
"W-Wait a minute, we're in my mind? What the hell are you doing here!?" Naruto cried out all of a sudden causing a large sweatdrop to form on the older woman's head. It took a few seconds to process something else the redhead said. "AND I AIN'T NO GIRL!"
Just a Line Break, Enjoy
Iruka grumbled as he fumbled with the door into the apartment building where one of his favorite students lived. He knew the place was a dump and he really tried to help Naruto find a better place but no one would rent to the kid. Only reason this apartment had was because the Hokage had made them give Naruto a room which the Hokage paid for. Iruka had thought about trying to adopt the kid but Iruka himself was still pretty young. He knew he was a good teacher but that was different than taking care of a child which was something that Iruka didn't think he could do.
Sighing as he thought about it he made his way toward Naruto's apartment to stare at the open door as he got close. He knew it was late but also knew the kid would still be up as Iruka had been informed of what happens every year and the young man had intended to spend the night with the loud mouthed blonde enjoying the multiple take out packs of ramen in the bags he was carrying. He would have been there sooner if he didn't have duties he had to attend to but as soon as he finished he hurried over.
"Naruto." Iruka called quietly pausing at the door open. It smelled of piss and…sex in the room as well as blood. Looking around the dim apartment the man dropped the bags spilling the contents all over the floor as the sight on the bed made him want to throw up. There his favorite student was tied down, naked and bloody with a kunai in his stomach…in her stomach?! "What the hell?"
Iruka quickly checked the pulse of the girl that Iruka was sure was a boy and sighed in relief as he realized that there was a pulse but it was very low. Checking her breathing he noticed it was very shallow to. What the hell was going on, one of his best friends was one of the two ANBU assigned to guard Naruto tonight so why did this happen? How did this happen?
He had to get the blonde help or she was going to die, that was clear and the only thing running through the teacher's mind was prayers that the young boy…no, the young girl would be okay.
Just another line break, yep.
Here's the second chapter but I really want to cry. Out of 42 hits I got no reviews. In fact, I didn't get any reviews at all for the first chapter? DO you all really hate my story so much?
I do want to thank dragoon-zerox for help with a few ideas with the story and all the help, thank you so much.
Please people, please review, how do I know what I'm doing right or wrong or know if you like or hate this without reviews?
