Chapter 2: This is awful
"So what did you want to talk about?" Asked Naruto trying to reign in his blush that was slowly starting to fade away. He was surprised to see that the Kyuubi was a female. The Kyuubi looked at him with a gentle smile as she turned and started walking away from the bars motioning for Naruto to follow her. Naruto stood looking at her in confusion. He wasn't sure what he should do in this situation. All his life he had learned to not trust the Kyuubi, but from the look she was giving him he felt that it was heartfelt. The look was full of regret and she looked like she generally cared about Naruto. Swallowing the lump that had formed in his throat he walked forward and through the bars into the seal that held the kyuubi. He almost expected to be jumped the second he passed the gate but was pleasantly surprised to see that the kyuubi was sitting on a large pillow that was on the floor. She motioned for him to sit on another pillow that materialized in front of her. Making his way over to her he cautiously sat down facing the Kyuubi who was still giving him the same gentle smile from before.
"First I would like to start off by apologizing to you." The Kyuubi stated as she proceeded to bow her head towards Naruto who was now even more confused than before. Why was the great Kyuubi bowing to him?
"Umm you don't need to bow I'm just not entirely sure what is going on here." Naruto commented bashfully as the kyuubi raised her head smiling once again towards him, this time he returned the smile which seemed to perk the kyuubi up from seeing that he was no longer as tense.
"I just want to explain to you the situation that we are currently in. Also I would like to tell you my reasons for my actions in the past." The Kyuubi started as Naruto nodded and tried to get a little more comfortable as he positioned himself in a different way. "I would first like to tell you I didn't mean to attack your village I was controlled by a man with the Sharingan." The Kyuubi stated as Naruto widened his eyes from hearing this.
"What why would someone with the Sharingan control you to attack the village? The people who processed the Sharingan are the Uchiha clan and they live in the village as well. Plus they lost a lot of members that day from what I've heard. So it makes no sense that someone from their clan would do something like that." Naruto stated looking at the Kyuubi with a puzzled look for some reason he couldn't force himself to not believe her.
"The reason why I know it was someone with the Sharingan is because I was controlled before by the same man…Madara Uchiha." The kyuubi explained as Naruto gained a look of understanding.
"That makes a lot of sense from what I read he betrayed the village and Hashirama fought him off, but it was said that Madara perished that day. Although people had their doubts." Naruto said more to himself then the kyuubi.
"Everything during that time is a bit hazy for me and the next thing I knew I was once again sealed inside of a baby boy. At first I was upset because I really liked your mother she and I had our difference, but she was nice to have a conversation with at times." Naruto didn't even hear the second part of what she was saying as he was just staring at her in shock.
"You were inside of my mother?" Naruto questioned quickly causing the Kyuubi to nod. "Who was she? What was she like? Do I look like her?" Naruto ask in rapid fire as the Kyuubi put her hands out in front of her in order to try and calm the teen in front of her down.
"To try and answer all your questions. Yes I was inside your mother for the majority of her life. Her Name was Kushina Uzumaki you carried on your mother's clan name. She was a little fire cracker so to speak she did want she wanted when she want, but she was kind hearted and sweet. And yes you indeed look like her besides the obvious hair difference as hers was a brighter shade of red then mine." The Kyuubi explained as Naruto smiled happily from hearing this information. "She also really loved you Naruto we used to talk about the things she wanted to do with you when you were born." Kyuubi then frowned remembering that. "I'm just so sorry she was never able to do all of the things she wanted to do with you." She apologized to Naruto once again as Naruto nodded sadly.
"It's alright Kyuubi as you said you were being controlled it's not your fault." Naruto said in a sad tone as he patted the Kyuubi on the head which caused the Kyuubi to smile as Naruto sent her a small smile. Naruto had to wipe a small tear that was forming in his eye as he looked away for a second to collect his bearings.
"Also after I was sealed inside of you I decided to try and make you strong for Kushina's sake. That's the reason I was so against you using my power I didn't want you to become reliant on me. That's the reason why I was always so mean to you. Every time you came to me for my power I wanted you to have it and be able to trust in me, but that wouldn't help you in the long run. I only took over when I knew it was necessary. Granted it was hard for me to completely control my power from inside here so at times it went a little out of control." She said embarrassingly as she rubbed the back of her head. Naruto was quiet for a bit after hearing all of this he wasn't sure what to make of all this in all honestly. The Kyuubi seeing this spoke up once again. "No matter how much I want you to believe me I know it's hard, trust takes time to build and I will do my best to gain yours." The kyuubi stated and was surprised when Naruto patted her head once again.
"It's not that I don't believe you it's just a lot to take in." Naruto said as he was surprised that he kept petting her head she reminded him of a fox he used to play with as a kid and he couldn't stop himself from wanting to pet her when she was sad. The Kyuubi didn't mind as it felt good to have physical contact after so many years. She leaned into his hand as Naruto just sat silently thinking about all the information he had just taken in. They sat quietly for a few minutes in this same position. "Well…" Naruto spoke up breaking the silence which caused the Kyuubi to slowly open her eyes and tilt her head a little so she could see him clearly. "I don't see why we can't just start over and be friends." Naruto said with a bright smile as Kyuubi stared at him wide eyed. This was the last thing she expected to hear from Naruto. She couldn't stop herself as she jumped up and hugged Naruto out of joy. Naruto just sat there still as he wasn't exactly sure what to do, but he didn't have to do anything as the Kyuubi quickly detached herself from Naruto and sat back down on her pillow trying to regain her composure. Although she couldn't remove the extremely bright smile that was now plastered on her face. She was genuinely happy about the outcome of this interaction.
"Thank you so much for this Naruto." Kyuubi stated happily as she beamed at him which in turn made him grin from seeing her face. "Oh and before I forget there is also the issue of us no longer being in the elemental nations." Kyuubi stated with a little more seriousness in her voice.
"What about it?" Naruto questioned tilting his head a bit in confusion.
"Well I'm not sure if you noticed or not, but our chakra began to change to magic when we got here you and I think we should be finished the change in the morning when you wake up. Also…" She started looking up at the seal. "There's something extremely important I have to tell you about the future of the seal that will affect the both of us." Naruto narrowed his eyes as he looked up towards the seal it was just repaired by his father so what could be wrong with it this soon.
"Didn't my father just repair it before we came to this world?" Naruto questioned as Kyuubi nodded her head in agreement.
"Well I'm not entirely sure what caused it, but when we were sucked into that Anima thing it somehow changed the seal type. You see your father had designed the seal that it would slowly drain my chakra and merge it with your own that's why you were able to do the shadow clone jutsu so easily. Although back in our world I was an infinite Chakra source so it didn't affect me at all. But here for some reason I have not been able to replenish the magic you are still taking from me." Naruto widened his eyes from this magic was basically their life force here, but before he could say anything the kyuubi stopped him as she spoke up once again. "Now though the seal seems to be on a timer and if I'm correct then a year from today the seal will be release and I will be freed. Although by that time with the rate you are still draining my magic I will have around four tails of magic left while you will have taken the other five." Kyuubi explained as Naruto was silent for a second as he thought this over.
"Is there any way for us to slow down the draining process?" Naruto questioned as she Kyuubi shook her head.
"No not that I know of. Although I'm fine with it. Four tails worth of power is easily enough power for me to live. And who knows what will happen once I have a physical body again." Kyuubi said in a no caring fashion, but Naruto was still a little upset from hearing this he didn't like the thought of stealing his new friends power. "My question to you is how do you feel about my release in a year?" She questioned not being able to look him in the eyes.
"To be honest…I'm happy that you will finally have freedom. I mean from what I know you have been sealed into different people over and over again just passed through decades just sitting behind bars not being able to do the things you want." Naruto looked down sadly. "It sounds extremely lonely to be honest." He then perked up as he continued. "Plus I would love for my first friend I made in this world to be able to come out and talk to me outside of this dump." Naruto commented looking around his mindscape it really was depressing in here. Looking over to the kyuubi he was surprised to see tears running down her cheeks.
"Thank you so much Naruto-kun." Kyuubi said quietly as she wiped her tears away and smiled to Naruto who just smiled back gently. "Also you should be able to will for your mindscape to change and it will go to whatever you imagine." The Kyuubi stated off handedly as Naruto closed his eyes and thought of the forest outside of Konoha he always liked it. Opening his eyes once again he was surprised to see how bright and lively it had become in his mindscape with animals and a lake in the center.
"That's much better." Naruto said with a smile as he stood up and looked around. Kyuubi stood up as well admiring her new home it was beautiful.
"Thank you again Naruto-kun." Kyuubi commented as she bowed to him once again.
"Anytime Kyuubi-chan." Naruto said with his signature grin.
"It's Kara." The Kyuubi whispered lowly as Naruto barely picked it up.
"Who's Kara?" Naruto questioned in confusion.
"My real name it Kara." Kara said which once again made Naruto smile bright.
"Well it was great to meet to real you Kara-chan." Naruto greeted as once again patted her head which she smiled and accepted. "Well I better get going I have be up early tomorrow." Naruto stated as Kara nodded.
"Agreed I will talk to you in the morning Naruto-kun." Kara stated as she watched Naruto disappear from her view she couldn't remove the large smile from her face as she sat down by the lake and watched the wildlife.
XGodX
You could hear groaning as our young blond tried to keep the rays from the sun out of his eyes. Turning his back towards the window that was in his new room he yawned as he slowly opened his eyes. Remembering the events that had happened the night before made him smile. He was in a new world where no one knew him. Sure he missed his friends dearly, but at the very least the villagers who glared at him and whispered weren't here. Plus he had made two new friends yesterday. Sure the blond guy who called himself a god was slightly weird, but he had met worse people. Then there was the Kyuubi who completely surprised Naruto. The Kyuubi was a woman and she was nice to him. Naruto blushed a little as he remembered what she had looked like.
"Yawn…I see you're awake Naruto-kun…" Naruto heard as he widened his eyes and looked around the room in confusion. Then he heard giggling from his actions. "I'm in that thing you call a mind." He heard the kyuubi state as he blushed in embarrassment and rubbed the back of his head.
"Oh I see…So how are you this morning Kara-san?" Naruto questioned out loud which made Kara giggle once again.
"I'm doing well Naruto-kun and just to let you know you can talk to me in thought." She stated as Naruto nodded his head and pulled himself off of the bed and over to the bathroom that was connected to his room.
'So I'm going to assume that our Charka has change to this magic thing right?' He asked as he proceeded to shred his clothing and climb into the shower.
"Yes it has completely adjusted to Magic. As far as I can tell we have no traces of chakra remaining." She answered a Naruto hummed a response to this and just cut their connection as he continued to shower. A few minutes later he stepped out of the showered and walked back into his room to grab the clothes Rai had given to him the night before. Slipping the clothing on, he made his way over to the door and reached for the handle. Naruto was surprised when the door swung open and smacked him right in the face causing him to hold his face as the pain coursed through it.
Poking out of the crack of the door Naruto saw Rai looking down at him with a large smile on his face. "What you doing down there blondie we got stuff to do today so don't spend too much time playing around." Rai stated as he closed the door once again. Naruto just chose to lay there and contemplate his existence for a few moments and all the previous choices he had made in his life to have cause him to end up here. All the while he could hear Kara laughing her ass off which wasn't helping Naruto's mood at all. 'Oh be quiet you Vixen!' Naruto yelled in thought which only caused her to laugh even more. Deciding to ignore her for now he proceeded to push himself off the floor and reached for the handle of the door once more, but this time his hand made it and he opened the door and headed for the Kitchen where Rai was currently sipping on some coffee.
"Breakfast is done." He said simply as he nodded towards the counter where Naruto's food was. Going over to it he grabbed the plate and bought it over to the table. Digging in he loved the taste of eggs and bacon in the morning. All the while he ate Rai simply waited and read the paper.
"So I was always curious on why you always held back in the elemental Nations?" Kara questioned suddenly as Naruto suddenly slowed down from eating.
"Well Kara-san there was really no reason for me to ever go all out plus a ninja's greatest weapon is deception. If everyone thinks you are not worth their time they don't need to go all out. Plus in fights where one miss step is the end of you deception is your best friend." Naruto explained as Kara nodded her head with a smile on her face she had never thought of that Naruto really wasn't the dead last everyone thought he was back in the academy.
"So since I will be training you for the foreseeable future I need to know how well you can fight." Rai stated which brought Naruto out of his conversation with his tenant. Looking up towards the blond god Naruto nodded his head in understanding.
"I'm ready when you are." Naruto exclaimed with a grin as he finished his meal. Rai let a sly grin overtake his features as he stood up from the table and walked out the door to the field. Naruto followed him as he placed his plate in the sink then followed his new sensei out of the house.
"Alright blondie let me see what you got." Rai stated with a smirk as he folded his arms across his chest. Naruto raised an eyebrow not exactly sure what Rai wanted him to do.
"Umm are we fighting or something or am I showing you what I can do?" Naruto asked in confusion. Rai's smirk turned into a full blown grin as he summoned black lightning in his hand and launched it towards Naruto who widened his eyes in surprise. Dodging to the side Naruto rolled on the ground from the sudden attack. Skidding to a halt Naruto raises his arms in order to block the punch from rai who appeared by his side. Naruto widened his eyes from the force as he felt himself lifted off the ground. 'Dear kami that hurt.' Naruto thought to himself with Kara just nodding dumbly from seeing this. Naruto quickly righted himself in the air as he landed in a crouch and glared at rai who had a crazed smile on his face.
"You were able to block a half powered punch from me. Maybe I can actually have a little full while training you." Rai stated as Naruto looked at the blonde God nervously. 'Kara if I die here please remember me when you reform.' Kara could only pray for her new friend to come out of this training alive.
XGODX
An hour later we find a beaten and battered Jinchuriki laying on the ground in a heap. After the first 15 minutes of the 'training' Naruto's mind had become numb as all he could really do was trust his instincts and play defensive the entirety of the time. Rai was ruthless never giving the orange loving blond a chance to switch gears and attack. Naruto has tried to make a shadow clone but every time he brought his hands up to make the clone rai was upon him in an instant. The blond either had to block or was outright pummeled to the ground. And don't even get him started on any of his wind jutsus he couldn't make a single hand sign how was he supposed to make multiple. Oh and let's not forget that he still hadn't put in the time to completely master the rasengan meaning he still needed a damn clone which he couldn't freaking make in time. Morale of this story don't get out of bed in the morning it isn't worth this shit... Wait no morale of the story is that if you don't work hard you will never accomplish things.
'Yeah that's better.' Naruto thought to himself as he groaned from his spot on the grass. He still had stars in his eyes from the constant beating he had just received.
"You still alive out there Naruto?" Came the questioning voice of his female friend who had covered her eyes from seeing her friend get completely destroyed by his new sensei. She was cutely peaking between her fingers in order to see if it was safe to look.
"Yeah I've never been better." Naruto said out loud as he felt himself begin to heal from Kyubbi's influences.
"You did a lot better than I expected to be honest." Rai stayed as he crouched down next to the blonde shinobi who glared up at the Lightning God.
"And what exactly were you expecting?" Asked Naruto grumpily pushing himself off the ground he felt his bones pop and his sore muscles begging for him to lie back down.
"Well honestly I was expecting you to last maybe 15 minutes, but you blew my expectations out of the water. If I had to guess you could hold your own against an A rank Mage, but that's only if you were fighting each other in hand to hand combat." Rai explained as he sat down in the grass beside the blond who felt a bit better thanks to Kara's healing. "You're not nearly fast enough to activate any type of magic I can tell you rely far too heavily on making some type of sign with your hands which hinders you greatly in a fast hand to hand fight." Rai finished explaining his findings of Naruto's ability. Naruto just nodded to himself as he listened to Rai's assessment of his skills.
"Where I'm from we need to make hand signs in order to use most of our abilities I think it helps us channel our chakra better I'm not completely sure I never did listen much in the academy." Naruto said sheepishly as he rubbed the back of his head in embarrassment. Rai simply nodded as he listened to the blonds reasoning for the hand signs.
"Would it be possible for you to show me these abilities that you possess?" Rai asked as Naruto grinned excitedly and hop to his feet completely forgetting his previous beat down.
"Hell yeah I can!" Naruto yelled as he quickly went through a set of hand signs. "Wind Release: Wind bullet!" Naruto said our loud as a compressed bubble of air came out of Naruto's mouth. Although not a second later Naruto was found starring at the compressed air in stunned silence. And Rai found that a huge sweat drop started to form on the back of his head. The reason for this was that the Wind bullet was moving extremely slow towards the tree Naruto had aimed it at.
Naruto suddenly blushed a bright red in embarrassments she turned to his new sensei as he spoke up. "I swear I'm not always this bad." Naruto apologized...then there was silence as the bubble of air continued floating at it slow pace towards the tree then.
"Bhahahaha!" Rai began laughing out loud and he was soon joined by a certain red headed vixen who was currently rolling around in her cage holding her sides. Naruto blushed an even deeper color as he realized that the way he phrased that sentence could had been taken a completely different way then he meant. *BOOM* they all suddenly heard causing the two standing in the field to turn wide eyed towards the bubble that came in contact with the tree. It completely shattered it and continued on its war path through about five more trees till the Wind bullet dispersed.
Rai whistled as he looked at the damage from the previously thought to be harmless Wind Bullet. "Well that wasn't supposed to happen..." Naruto trailed off as he looked at the damage his jutsu had caused. 'I didn't put nearly enough chakra for it to do that...' Naruto thought to himself.
"Yeahhhh that's likely because our chakra finished changing to that mugic thingy." Kara input as Naruto just started to think about that his chakra felt extremely dense compared to his already dense chakra he had before thanks to Kara.
'And it's called magic Kara we just learned this yesterday. Also why did you feel that now was the best time to tell me? You had all the time in the world to tell me this morning.' Naruto questioned in annoyance the great kyuubi put her finger to her chin as she thought about that, why she didn't tell him this morning.
"I did tell to this morning maybe the door to the face made you lose your memory of it?" She grinned from seeing Naruto face palm from the Vixens answer.
"I wonder..." Naruto said aloud as he brought his hands together in a familiar sign. "Kage Bushion no Jutsu." He stated as 2 clones puffed into existence. "Huh there was supposed to be 10 of you." Naruto was confused on how to properly control this new energy he wielded.
"Hey don't look at me boss this guy likely fucked it up." The clone on the left point towards the one on the right who glared heatedly at the left clone.
"You want to say that again lefty?" Right clone cracked his knuckles as he asked this.
"Yeah I do it's not like you'll do anything righ-" the left clone never finished his sentence as he was punched the face by the right one which sent the left clone to the ground causing him to eat dirt.
"Yeah you like that!" The right clone yelled as he hopped up and down going in and out of a fighting stance. "You aren't anything lefty I'll mess you u-" righty never finished either as lefty leg sweep him causing him to fall backwards and bash his head on the ground.
"You son of a bitch..." the right clone growled under his breath as he held his aching head.
"Hmm that's interesting neither of you dispelled and you both took hits that would have dispelled you." The original Naruto stayed from his spot a few feet away. "How about this?" Naruto said to himself as he held out his hand with his palm facing up. Seeing this the two clone put aside their differences and decided to help their boss. It took a few seconds, but eventually a blue orb started to come to life. The three Naruto's were sweating bullets as they continued to concentrate on the blue ball. The original was molding the chakra while the clone on the left was focusing on power and the clone on the right was spinning it.
Rai was about to ask what Naruto was doing, but was silenced when the blue ball exploded sending the three Naruto's flying in different directions. The two clones dispelled after they bounced on the ground a few time. While the original Naruto managed to stop his momentum by channeling chakra into his hand as placed it on the ground to stick in place. "Well that sucked ass..." Naruto said grumpily as he shook his right hand from the pain.
"It's clear that you have little to no control over your magic." Kara stated as Naruto rolled his eyes from the obvious statement. 'Thanks for the input captain obvious.' Naruto said sarcastically which caused Kara to stick out her tongue.
"Do you need to test anything else out?" Rai question which brought Naruto out of his mussing.
"Yeah I have a few more abilities, but I won't test them out seeing how these weaker abilities are completely unstable. I would likely kill myself if I tried the others." Naruto nervously chuckled as he thought about it. He really didn't want to try the Rasenshuiken, especially since he couldn't even form a normal rasengan.
"Well before I teach you anything you need to learn to control your magical energy or else you will never be able to learn my magic type." Explained Rai as Naruto nodded sadly.
"This is going to suck." Naruto complained as he allowed himself to fall back into the cool grass in order to rest a bit before he got started.
Well here are the first two chapters. The only reason I posted these two together and so quickly was because they were already basically done when I mentioned rewriting this. I just had to do some touch ups here and there. Also I will for sure post a chapter at least once a month maybe more if I get a ton of inspiration. So pleae remember to review and tell me what you think. Later.
