Naruto, and the wolf goddess

by Vados46

The Kyuubi is sealed into Naruto's twin sister. Unknowingly neglected, and believing he's unwanted in his own home, Naruto heads into the Forest of death and meets a pack of "Special" wolves. But unknown to either his family, or Konoha, Naruto is the jinchuriki of an entity that is greater then anything seen before that was concieved by sealing the Kyuubi's excess chakra in him.

2. Chapter 1 renewed

Hello everyone, Vados46 here with the next chapter of Naruto, and the wolf goddess, and do I have a few things to say about it that some reviewers brought up.

1. I read over my own prologue and I can tell I messed up a few times here and there so I will correct it in the near future.

2. About the pairings for the fic, they are still in the works at this point and you don't need to worry about them for a while for about oh, let's see I want to include every arc, and movie plus add a few things of my own creation, so . . . a long time away at the moment, but one thing is for sure, Theia is one of his main (Alpha) girls. (Don't worry about her being a furry fantasy, I have a way around that for Normal Human Fantasies, though for furry fans out there, for the future let's just say Naruto will develop a kink for it in the future)

3. Just a heads up, but a big hint for the future, Naruto will not use hand signs for his non bloodline related jutsu (Meaning basic affinities like, air, water, earth, fire, lightning) except for non-elemental basic affinities (Yin and yang, which are the exception). So expect lots of pure elemental manipulation (Bending from both Aang the last Avatar and The legend of Korra, as well as ideas from them, from Naruto and other people he might teach) bordering on impossible and crazy but still realistically can be done logically in the anime/mangna universe.

4. Also in the next chapter or so I will write out an Elemental Manipulation list that will somewhat give an educated idea of how strong the characters close to Naruto and himself will be in the future and hopefully also help give other beginning writers ideas for their own fics. Which I give my consent that they can freely use, my only request though, is that they reference me as the creator of the ideas in their future fics. As well as what Doujutsu he has, and it's current and future abilities.

5. And you might have noticed I made Naruto said that he was abused, well it wasn't Kushina that abused him (Not physically anyway, but mentally that's another case), it was more Natsumi's doing . . . sort of, because whenever she blamed him of pulling pranks after she did them, a mob of Civilians and Shinobi after hearing what he had supposedly "done" would become enraged at what he "did" and would go after him and beat him making it "her fault" so to speak. And the toll on his psych would drop a bit, whenever she would tell him that their mother loved her more than him. And although I didn't say it, she also banned any kid from being friends with him, so that she could have her Onii-chan's full attention. Also because of Kushina's impulsive nature, training Natsumi (although she could have spared a clone to help him) and certain forces at work (that I'll expand on in the future) she more or less forgot he existed at times, she'll still be punished though, same with Natsumi. (I got something for her and it won't be pretty)

(Selfish Much, but then again she was a kid and didn't know what she had done would hurt him in anyway), so as they say: Hindsight may be 20/20, but foresight can be staring you right in the face and you'll still miss it. - Susan Gale

7. Lastly as a challenge, I'll give the first person who guesses correctly two cyber cookies to whoever guesses, who those white, silver, and platinum haired people were in the village that he entered in the prologue, as well as what species the wolves he is with are. Also including to the list of stuff I do not own, is Harry Potter for the use of Hogwarts enchanted ceiling. Anyway on to the story

Chapter 1: Is it a Nightmare or Reality, meeting the Alpha

Unknown location

Kushina's eye's snapped open as she found herself back in the living room of the family's house which, while not the size of a humongous five story mansion, was around three stories with an attic and has two basements which the first basement had a sauna, steam room, indoor pool, weight room, and janitorial closet, and the second basement was a large indoor artificially created training field that had a small waterfall that had a stream connected to a decent but shallow lake and a small forest with a clearing that had several wooden posts that had repair seals on them which regenerated the posts whenever they were damaged in it for Taijutsu, and Kenjutsu practice and that the ceiling had seals which made it look like the sky outside, and to mirror the weather, without any negative effects. While the first floor had a foyer, ballroom, formal living room, formal dining room, formal meeting room, family living room where Kushina was currently in, family dining room, kitchen, two bathrooms, miniature clinic with a small bathroom, janitorial closet, and indoor greenhouse while the second floor has twelve bedrooms ranging in size and four bathrooms, along with a master bedroom that also has a bathroom connected to it while the third floor had a large library, and a study for more creative and dangerous techniques stored inside it while the attic wasn't really an attic but a sunroom that had a large indoor garden growing inside it, now the strange thing about all of this, was that the whole place was black, white, and grey, while only she was normal. The confused woman looked at her hands, with a look of utter shock on her face.

'W-What's going on? Where am I?' she thought to herself, but was cut off as she began to hear a voice. That she immediately identified as herself. And by the sound of it, the voice was yelling at someone. It then hit her, as her eyes widened and she ran for the kitchen, where she saw the calendar and her heart sank. She remembered this date all too well.

'No! Please not again! Anything but this!' She screamed in her head, as the yelling outside intensified.

She then bolted for the back door that the kitchen was connected to, and opened it, and to her shock and horror, saw a colored version of herself, and Naruto in the equally colored backyard, with the later looking terrified as tears ran down his cheeks.

"You stupid little bastard! What were you thinking doing a chakra exercise without my permission!?" the Past Kushina yelled at Naruto.

"B-But K-K-Kaa-chan . . . I-I . . ." the young starlight haired boy said, only to receive a hard slap from Past Kushina.

"That's enough out of you! I can't believe a little waste of space like you would try to pull a stunt like this!" the Past Kushina screeched, making the Present Kushina wince at the words, as tears leaked from her eyes and fell down her cheeks.

'No! Stop this! PLEASE!' she begged to any deity out there to stop this travesty, only for it to fall on deaf ears as the specter of herself continued to shout at Naruto who was now curled up in a ball crying. Then to her confusion and unease, a sinister grin formed on the mouth of her Past self.

"It's obvious that you are an uncooperative little shit-stain," said the Past Kushina while a dark sinister gleam appeared in her eyes.

"And I know what happens to uncooperative little brats," She said while the real Kushina looked on, clearly confused by this.

'W-Wait? What's going on here? This is not right! I sent Naruto to his room!' Kushina thought, as Past Kushina pulled out a Hirashin kunai, while making a clone.

"And it's not like anyone would care. The whole village already despises him, so they'll see this as a blessing rather than a murder," Past Kushina said, making Present Kushina's eyes widen in horror at that.

Before any thought of doing anything to help Naruto could enter her mind, the clone of her supposed past self, used rusted spiked chakra chains that came out of her back, and strung Naruto up by the neck while slightly cutting into it drawing a little blood, and spreading his arms and legs out. His face now showing true fear as he looked at both Past Kushina and her clone.

"K-Kaa-chan . . . Please . . .," Naruto begged, but the grins on both of their faces only increased.

"Sorry, Naruto-chan. But I never wanted you. Natsumi is my favorite, and I could always go into town and make her a new little brother," The Past Kushina said in a sickly-sweet singsong voice, and then another chakra chain came out of the clones back, and the kunai tip went speeding at the 5 ½ year old piercing him in the shin. Which resulted in the little boy screaming out in pain.

The real Kushina looked on in horror at what just happened. She remembered clearly that this is not what happened.

'No! This is wrong! This is all Wrong!' the Uzumaki screamed at herself, 'This isn't what happened!'

She then saw Past Kushina fling the Hirashin kunai behind Naruto before disappearing in a Red flash, then reappear behind Naruto, with a familiar spiraling ball of chakra in her hand.

"Rasengan!" Past Kushina shouted as she slammed the chakra ball which was about twice the size of a regular one into Naruto's back carving a spiral trench into it that began to splurt, and leak blood from the wounds, causing said boy to cry out in agony. While some blood landed on Past Kushina's face, which she licked off, and in doing so, she briefly got an orgasmic expression on her face.

"NO, STOP IT!" Kushina screamed as she tried to run and help her son, only for something to grab onto her left ankle and cut into it. She looked down and saw what looked like a black and green vine covered in thorns and had pulsating indigo veins, growing from the ground and wrapping itself around her ankle. She reached for her kunai pouch, but was shocked to find it not on her thigh (She is still wearing the road to ninja outfit). Desperation taking hold, she clawed at the thorn covered vines, trying to get free to save her child from this torture, "LET GO OF ME!"

She then heard another scream and turned back, her eyes widening as another chakra chain impaled itself into Naruto's other shin, then two more to his forearms. Panic settled in as the Red Habanero now struggled more than ever to get to Naruto, but then more black and green vines grabbed her right wrist and yanked it back, while cutting into it as well.

Kushina then watched as the Past Kushina whose clothes turned into a skimpy crimson dominatrix outfit suddenly began turning into a taller, demonic, ugly version of herself, who grew from her and Present Kushina's height of 5',4" to a solid 6',0" and her skin turned chalk white, while most of it horribly burned and what didn't burn grew horrendous boils that secreted a dark indigo ooze that smelt foul, like it was from a decayed five-day old corpse and when it hit the ground, the ground that the ooze dropped on would begin to melt, meaning that the ooze was extremely poisonous, her hair became a greasy mess with clumps falling out while it gained white highlights and tips, while six yellow horns grew out of the sides of her head(They look like Vasto lorde Ichigo horns, where a pair faces up, another down, and a pair in between them was "strait out"), two rabbit ears that were made out of a bone like substance grew out of the top of her head (They look like Kaguya Otsutsuki's horns), four crimson wings that had white spikes on the undersides of them grew out of her back with the lower pair circling around her hips (The wings look like the ones that Giratina has) and a horribly burned fox tail that had clumps of hair missing in the places it wasn't burnt growing out of her spine that if she looked closely would have been crimson with a white tip, and a white half bone mask with razor sharp pointed crimson teeth set into a sinister grin formed over her mouth and neck, and her eyes became two glowing red orbs in black pools, and lastly a black hole that was of a decent size opening up in her enlarged chest area which grew from Past Kushina's current FF cups to solid J's where her heart should have been, with the same thing happening to the clone except it had blue skin and a black dominatrix outfit instead. Then all of a sudden two Guandao, burst from the ground, their blades rusted and old that had a red tint to them with thin trails of smoke coming from the tips.

"Now for the final touch . . .," the now demonic Kushina said as she took hold of one of the Guandao and yanked it out of the ground and began twirling it with the skill of a master, with the clone following suit.

"Yes . . . it's time to put this bad dog to sleep . . . FOR GOOD!" the clone said as it stabbed the blade end into Naruto's stomach, upon which the area around the blade began to burn showing that the Guandao's where extremely hot, and forcing a strangled cry of pain from the young silverette. Then the Past Demonic Kushina proceeded to skip towards the chain bound boy, while still twirling her Guandao.

"Oh Naru-chan, Naru-chan . . .,'' the Demonic Kushina saïd, as the real one continued to struggle while watching what was happening not fifteen feet in front of her, and as this torture was going on in front of Present Kushina the vines were continuing to dig into her left ankle and right wrist. "If only you were a good boy, then you wouldn't be having this punishment."

Present Kushina could only growl as this . . . thing spoke to her son. But what the Demonic Kushina did and said next, made her blood freeze.

"It is a pity, I'll miss that delicious blood of yours but now, you die!" with that phrase, the Demonic Kushina shoved the Guandao into Naruto's neck, said boy then began choking on his own blood as his eyes went blank, and his throat began burning, however what was strange was that the Demonic Kushina was looking straight at Present Kushina, when she did it.

The look of horror on Kushina's face was clear as day as she saw one of her precious children die in front of her.

"N-NO . . . . . . NOOOOO!" she screamed just as the vines, chakra chains, and the demonic version of herself and its clone vanished, when Naruto who still had the Guandao in his neck hit the ground.

The distraught mother immediately rushed over to her son, ignoring the pain in her left leg and right arm for the moment, and scooped him into her arms, after being as careful as possibly being able to, given her circumstances to remove the polearm from his throat (not noticing that the Guandao repaired itself, and in case you are wondering it's a Golden Dragon Guandao and that the dragon on the blade is red, the tassel is black, the gems are dark indigo in color and that the guard is made of red gold). Tears cascaded from her eyes as she looked at his small burnt, unmoving body. The world around them, save for the Guandao that was now in perfect, condition fading into darkness.

"Naruto? NARUTO!" Kushina wailed, as she tried to wake him, but with no results as his eyes were glassed over, and lifeless. The mother seeing no response, cradled her son's body, while rocking back and forth.

"N-Naruto . . . I-I'M sorry . . . I'm so sorry . . . my baby," she said, in complete despair.

"Why . . .," a voice barely above a whisper rasped out, causing Kushina to jerk her head up and look around, only to hear a rasping breath coming from her supposed to be dead son. Looking down at Naruto, her eyes widened in horror as she saw his face, in which he had slightly thicker whisker marks, two fangs coming from his mouth, and eyes that were sky-blue with a slitted silver pupil.

"Why do you HATE AND FORSAKE ME!?"

(For those of you who are 15 or so and younger, you can read now, unless you disregarded the warning, then in that case disregard this captioned sentence).

End of Nightmare

Kushina jolted awake with a scream, sweat covering her entire form and drenching her clothes. She was in the master bedroom of the family home. Remembering the horrifying nightmare, she had, she curled up against the head of the bed and started crying, then numerous footsteps were heard as the door flew open, revealing a concerned Sandaime Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Kushina! Are you alright!?" the Sandaime said worriedly, as Yugao, along with two other people, which were Kakashi Hatake, and another Anbu with a cat mask. They watched as their Hokage headed over to Kushina, who looked as if she had seen the devil himself (Or in this case herself).

"Kushina? Kushina talk to me," Hiruzen said as he carefully placed a hand on her shoulder, which resulted in Kushina jerking her head up and back pedaling against the wall.

"Kushina calm down! It's me," Hiruzen said as he moved toward Kushina, which seemed to scare her more. Knowing he had to do something fast, he moved forward and grabbed the clearly distraught Uzumaki, who began to struggle with much distress.

"Shhh, Kushina, Shh," the old kage said calmly, and repeated the process until she calmed down, and then hugged (Not in a perverted fashion) the Hokage and began sobbing, "It's okay Kushina. Now, tell me what happened."

However, Kushina could only cry more as she remembered the horrible nightmare, "I-I . . . . . . c-can't . . . i-it was s-so . . . horrible!" she cried out between sobs, and Hiruzen then turned to the cat masked Anbu.

"Go and get Inoichi, NOW! Tell him it's an emergency, and that I need him, right away!" the Sandaime ordered, the Anbu nodded then vanished in a shunshin. It was at this moment that Natsumi, who up until this point had been crying her heart out on the bed in her room and had recently stopped had heard her mother scream, followed by numerous footsteps outside her room, so deciding to find out what the cause was, she came in, though if anyone noticed they would have seen that her eyes were puffy, concerned about her mother.

She was about to speak, when Kakashi stopped her and shook his head.

"Your mother just had a nightmare, Natsumi-chan," he said, "It would be best if you didn't disturb her right now."

Natsumi wanted to protest this, but knowing she wouldn't win an argument and that she was tired simply nodded, and left with Kakashi. Yugao stayed though, and as she looked at her sensei who was being comforted by the Sandaime (The regular type of comforting when one person comforts another, any other way is just wrong), was curious about what the nightmare had been, but also had a good suspicion as to what, or who it was about.

About twenty minutes later, Inoichi arrived and saw the state the former Jinchuriki was in, and immediately knew that this was bad.

"Hokage-sama, I came as soon as I was informed by the Anbu," the Yamanaka clan head said as he approached the two.

"And a good thing you did Inoichi," Hiruzen said as he continued to hold his late successor's wife, "Kushina had a nightmare. And judging by the way she woke up from it, I can only guess it was a terrifying experience for her."

Inoichi nodded as he looked at the quietly sobbing Uzumaki, as she uttered her son's name over and over.

"And you want me to use my Shintenshin no Jutsu to see what her what her nightmare was," he said, knowing perfectly well what the Hokage wanted as he nodded his head.

"Yes, I need to know what it was about," he said, and Inoichi nodded as he turned to Kushina.

"Kushina, listen to me," Inoichi said, getting the woman's attention as she lifted her head revealing her tear stained face, and red puffy eyes, "I know you just woke up from a nightmare, but I need to go into your mind and find out what it was. Can you relax so that I can do this?"

Kushina was silent for a bit but hesitantly nodded her head, as Hiruzen stood up and gave the two some space.

After bringing a chair to the side of the bed, Inoichi instructed Kushina to get on it, and when she did he raised his hands in the signature handsign for the technique, before going limp and inside Kushina's mind, causing said woman to also go limp, and fall onto her pillows.

It was around fifteen minutes later, when Kushina and Inoichi woke up again with a start, the latter's face even though he worked at the torture and interrogation department and was desensitized to such things, was showing shock and horror.

"Kami have mercy . . .," he said, as he placed his hand on his head in order to alleviate the memories of the 'Hell' he just saw.

"Inoichi, what is it?" Hiruzen said in worry as he helped Kushina sit back up.

The Yamanaka clan head could only look at him with a pale face, his eyes showing a thousand-yard stare, and shaking at the images he observed as well.

"I can only say this Hiruzen," he said calmly, but with a tinge of fear in it, "What I saw in there, you wouldn't like it."

Hiruzen blinked at that. What was so horrible, that it scared Kushina who was normally brave, half to death.

He then moved towards the Yamanaka who looked as if he was ready to vomit.

"Let me see it," he said firmly, making Inoichi and Kushina jerk their heads toward him.

"Hiruzen, no! I don't want you to see it!" Kushina begged, with Inoichi agreeing with her.

"Trust her and me on this Hiruzen! You don't want to!" he argued, as the old Hokage nodded.

"You're right . . ., I don't want to . . .," Hiruzen said, until he gave a determined look, "But I need to. Because whatever it was that frightened Kushina so bad, it no dought concerns Naruto, and that I am also partly responsible for what had happened to cause him to run" he then narrowed his eyes, "So I am ordering you, Inoichi. Let me see what you found in Kushina's mind."

Kushina looked at the old kage with worry, ". . . Hiruzen."

Inoichi could only blink at that, but motioned for Hiruzen to sit.

"Don't say that I didn't warn you," the Yamanaka clan head said, as he proceeded to share what he saw in Kushina's nightmare.

When Inoichi finished, he immediately saw the reaction he knew would happen, as Hiruzen paled, and proceeded to grab the nearest waste basket and puke his guts out.

'Merciful heavens . . .,' he thought to himself, 'That was . . . I don't even know how to describe it.'

The Hokage, after he stopped hurling his stomach contents out which was whatever he had for dinner, and settled down, stood up and walked towards the bed and proceeded to wrap Kushina in a hug.

"Listen to me Kushina, what you saw in that nightmare wasn't you," he whispered into her ear, "That never happened, and never will happen. I know you would rather kill yourself before you ever hurt one of your children. Especially Naruto."

Kushina after hearing Hiruzen only began to sob more as he then turned towards Inoichi, "Thank you, you can go home now, Inoichi," he said, and the man nodded before whispering something into Hiruzen's ear then leaving, along with Hiruzen who left shortly afterward as well but not before saying some words of comfort to Kushina, while the whole time Yugao looked on.

'What nightmare could it be that it would frighten one S-rank Kunoichi an S-rank shinobi and an A-rank one?' she thought to herself, as she left as well, but not before noticing what looked like a weapon similar to a naginata, only that the blade was broader and that it was ornately designed on the other side of Kushina's bed, which made her think that Kushina was learning how to use it and didn't bring it on her search for Naruto, because she wasn't proficient in using it yet. She also thought it must have been a trick of the light when the dragon on the blade glowed a little and the shadows seemed drawn to it . . . she then made a mental note to herself not to eat ramen and drink sake after 12 am.

And unknown to anyone, even Kushina was that the beginnings of two black and green vine like tattoos appeared on her left ankle and right wrist, giving off both a pleasant and foreboding feeling to anyone who would pay attention to them in the future.

Unknown location

"So they think I'm not real huh, . . . fools, . . . I will show them, the nightmare for Kushina is only going to get so much worse before getting better, . . . for me that is muahahahahaha, but don't worry kushi-chan after I'm done with you, i'll make sure Sumi-chan gets hers to, after all you both hurt MY sweet, handsome Naru-chan. I'll be sure to MAKE THE BOTH OF YOU PAY!"

". . . . . . But first I'll lay low for a bit longer, don't want the Damn Mindwalker to be tipped off this early in the game, then at the end, Naru-chan, I will have you all to myself, yes I will, and no skank will have what is MINE! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA"

Outside the Namikaze/Uzumaki house

"What did you want to talk to me about, Inoichi?" Hiruzen said, as the both of them where walking towards the Yamanaka compound.

"It's about that nightmare if it can actually be called that, Hokage-sama did you notice that it seemed off to you, like I don't know that there was something else there?" Inoichi asked, as when he was viewing it he noticed, that the Past Demonic Kushina had even though he didn't see it he was sure, she glanced several times at where Kushina was, and not just when Kushina originally had the nightmare but after, when he Kushina, and Hiruzen had reviewed it, twice for himself and Kushina and once for Hiruzen.

"Not really other then it seemed lifelike, you're just overthinking this Inoichi." Hiruzen said, as he thought that all the guilt that Kushina kept inside all these years was beginning to come out, he also thought that the nightmare was that bad because she had recently learned some of the truth about what was happening to her son over the years, and that her subconscious mind created a worst case scenario so to speak for her fears. (And in most cases he would be right)

"I guess so . . ., but I'm still going to schedule several appointments for her just to be on the safe side." Inoichi replied, while beginning to walk to his house. And as he was doing so, deep inside himself he couldn't help but feel a sense of dread swell up inside him.

Back in The Forest of Death, or known as Training ground 44

As morning came over the compound in the compound in the Forest of Death, one silver haired Jinchuriki was still sleeping as the door to his room opened. Two pairs of eyes that were blue-green and magenta, though they had pink flecks in them peeked inside and saw the human on the bed.

Naruto remained asleep on the bed, unaware of the two figures headed towards him. When they arrived at the foot of the bed, they crouched down, and then as one, leapt on the sleeping seven-year-old. The results were obvious . . .

"AAAAHHH!" Naruto screamed, as he felt the weight of something furry, and smelt like the forest land on him, "What the!? Hey! Get off of me!"

The two things that "Attacked" him were two wolf pups. They were colored the same way as the other wolves he saw last night.

But there were some differences. One had black markings under its magenta colored eyes, and had black highlights in its fur as well as four black 'socks', while the other had red markings under it's blue-green eyes, as well as red highlights in its fur and four red 'socks'.

"Hey, come on! Get off!" Naruto shouted again. It was then that the pup with the blue-green eyes spoke to him, in a young girl's voice.

"Shikon-Itoko sama sent us to get you, so UP AND AT'EM!" the pup shouted, and then proceeded to grab him, by biting his hand and dragging him out of the bed.

"Ow! Let go of my hand!" the silverette shouted again, but the young pup ignored him and continued to pull Naruto out of the room with the other wolf pup following right behind. They led Naruto out of the castle, down the main road were they passed a few of the silver, white, and platinum haired people going about their day and saw the comical scene amusing, before exiting the compound. Where the wolves outside of the gate also saw the comical scene, and Naruto swore that he heard some of them snickering.

It was two hours later before they arrived at the base of a large hill (That in itself was tiny compared to the mountains behind it) with a cave opening big enough for something a bit larger than the size of a boss summon to enter into. Outside the cave was Shikon, along with two other wolves, and unlike the guard wolves at the castle, these were at least 50 meters long, though were still diminutive compared to the size of the cave opening. The young pups brought the runaway silverette in front of Shikon who looked on with a neutral gaze.

"I assume you slept well child?" Shikon said, while Naruto who was rubbing the back of his hand, and glaring at the female wolf pup who had dragged him the whole way, nodded.

"Yeah, I did," he said, "But did you have to send these little hellions to get me? I swear I thought that she was going to rip my hand off!"

Said pup only gave an innocent look, "I was only doing was I was told," she said sweetly, and before Naruto could make a retort, Shikon stopped them.

"You'll both have enough time to maul each other later," the she-wolf said, "For now, the Alpha wishes to see you, child."

Naruto frowned at that, "My name is Naruto, you know," he said, and the she-wolf looked at him.

"Of course," she said, "Now, follow me, Naruto."

Naruto's eyes slightly twitched at that, "Geez, does she have to talk like a drone," me muttered, only for Shikon to answer.

"I heard that, . . . Oh and you two, I heard from someone that you skipped out on HER lessons yesterday, I'll be sure to tell HER later about what you did," she said, and Naruto felt a sudden chill go down her spine, while if he was looking and paying attention to his surroundings he would have seen the pups pale several shades and the two guards to snicker slightly, while one of them whispered something about being busted to the other. However, a yawn inside Naruto's mind then got his attention.

"It would be best not to piss her off, Naruto-kun," Theia said, as she stretched within his mindscape, "She could tear us limb from limb. And I prefer to live long after I get my final tail,"

Naruto mentally gave his eternal companion the equivalent of a deadpanned stare inside his mindscape, 'You're not helping here,' he thought, as he followed the she-wolf inside the cave opening which led to a tunnel, with the now two cowed wolf pups, who each sent a glare to the guard wolves shutting them up, following behind him.

For fifty minutes, they walked through the tunnel, and Naruto was curious why they had not experienced total cave darkness yet as well as why he felt as if he was going downhill. Before he could ask, he saw light at the end of the tunnel and soon the group of three wolves and one Avatar a name he dubbed himself to be different from the known Jinchuriki, arrived in what appeared to be an enormous cavern, with a hole in the ceiling allowing sunlight to enter. Naruto looked around and saw more wolves, who were warily looking at him, along with numerous eyes watching him from the shadows of the cavern, especially one pair that caught Naruto's attention for some reason. And made him cautious from the way that they were showing no hostility.

'Well, at least they're not trying to eat me . . . Yet,' Naruto thought, while Theia suddenly admonished him.

"Don't jinx us Naruto-kun!" the young goddess shouted, "Anything that could happen, will happen!"

'Geesh, fine, I'm sorry,' Naruto replied with a roll of his eyes. His thoughts were interrupted as he saw Shikon stop in front of a formation of rocks that looked like a podium.

The Avatar stopped walking as soon as Shikon did, and the group waited until a massive wolf with black fur even bigger then Gamabunta appeared out of the shadows, it looked grizzled, as well as having a beard, and the majority of its top right fang was missing, it gazed down at the starlight haired boy with eyes that were beady and completely blank, not showing irises and pupils that were surrounded by large, round pools of shadow. And they were the eyes that showed no hostility at the boy, only curiosity.

"Well young human," the wolf said in a gruff, but strong voice, "I'm impressed how you managed to survive the forest where we made our home, ever since Shikon informed me about you. But I am curious, about why you came into the forest, when others have second thoughts,"

Naruto gave a sigh, somehow he knew that explaining his story would make things a little . . . troublesome.

And as he thought that he swore he could have heard two people sneezing from where he was, followed by the sound of . . . a frying pan smacking something, then a grunt.

Another unknown location

It was black, that was all IT could see. And although IT didn't know why, or how IT came into being, it knew for some reason that it was disgusted with SOMETHING, and that IT didn't like what IT was disgusted by, so IT decided to go back to sleep, hopefully whatever IT was disgusted by would be away or gone out of IT'S current sensing capability range, but if whatever IT was disgusted by was still around . . . IT didn't have an answer for the moment, but would when IT woke up again. And in the meantime IT while going back to sleep would somehow need to figure out how to learn how IT came into being, and figure out where IT was.
