Chapter 2

Naruto I need your help.

"I can see that but I don't think just ban aids will work but Kyubbi went to get some more gauze..."

Naruto pays little attention to what his brother is saying trying to figure out how to bandage bruised and broken ribs as they sit in the bathroom waiting for Kyubbi to return.

Pein stops Naruto so he could gain all of his attention.

"No Naruto not about that I really need your help."

The look on Pein's face made Naruto pause. His brother never asked for help from his younger brothers before unless it was for money.

"What is it that you need?"

"This guy hired me to move boxes for him at his club, but after my partner quit after our fight and I cut my hand with the box cutter. I have no one to help me and I'll need some extra hands do you think that you and Kyubbi could help me out?"

Naruto scrunched his eye brows at the odd request since he never knew his brother to get an actual job before, he really just borrows money from everyone else.

"I don't know about Kyubbi but I could help."

"NO!" Pein suddenly exclaims wincing as he jostles his bandages.

He then controls himself and continues in a more calm but more strained voice.

"No I mean that wouldn't be enough there are a lot of boxes that need to be moved and I need you both since I'm on a schedule and I can't be late. So do you think can get Kyubbi to help. I already know he wouldn't do it if I asked since he hates me Naruto."

He adds the last bit in sad somber tone.

Naruto still looked oddly at his brother's different behavior but was quick to deny Kyubbi's hate for his brother.

"That's not true he doesn't hate you he just needs to-"

Pein cuts off Naruto's excuse.

"No it's okay I know he doesn't like me but don't tell him this. I was kind of hoping to use this moving the boxes job as a way for us to spend some more time together and after I get paid we can go out to eat at that ramen place you guys like so much. We need to spend more time together as brothers."

Naruto gets excited just thinking about the delicious ramen at Ichiraku Ramen Bar and actually hanging out with his brother, but hesitates wondering how to get Kyubbi to go along.

"Well... I guess I could try and get Kyubbi to go along. When is the job?"

Pein looks up as if Naruto has just made his day.

"It's Friday night..."


"Hell no." Kyubbi bluntly replies.

"But it's only on Friday night."

Naruto tries to convince his brother to do the job as they lie in their bed.

"I don't care if it's Friday morning, Saturday evening, or Wheneverday afternoon I'm still not doing it and you aren't either end of discussion. Now go to bed."

Kyubbi huffs and turns his back to Naruto trying to put emphasis on the end of discussion part.

'I already know he hates me Naruto...'

"Come on Kyubbi it's just moving boxes. Plus we get a little extra pocket change."

'I just want us hang out...'

Naruto starts to shake Kyubbi.

"Kyubbi he's our brother and he needs our help."

Kyubbi turns over and looks at Naruto quizzingly

"Why are you being so forceful about this?"

Naruto tries to lie.

"No reason I just know he wants our help to move some boxes for his job."

"You're lying Naruto why are you lying?"

"more time together as brothers..."

Naruto cracks.

"I really think Pein is trying to change now he got a job and he told me not to tell you but he wants to spend more time with us as brothers and I really think we should give him the chance. It's what mom always wanted for us."

Kyubbi groans loudly and covers his face with his hand.

"Fuck. Why are you doing this to me Naruto."

Nartuo takes Kyubbi's hand from his face and stares into his brothers dark bloody red eyes that most people call demonic but Naruto finds awesome.

"We have to give him a chance no matter what he has done in the past I want to believe in him now can you for my sake trust in our brother."

The way Naruto's innocent beautiful blue oceanic eyes looked at him Kyubbi knew that he couldn't refuse him.

"I so hope your right about this Naruto."

A cheesy happy smile forms on Naruto's face as he gives Kyubbi a huge hug.

'That son of bitch really doesn't deserve your love. But what exactly is he up to?'


"It's done. I'll have my brothers to you tomorrow night Madra."

"You know Pein I've always had a saying 'beneficium accipere libertatem est vendere' do you know what it means. It means to accept a favor is to sell one's freedom. I just want you to remember that I hold your freedom till pay me back my favor. See you Friday Pein."

The phone line cut dead as Pein shook But knowing it'll all be over Friday. All his troubles will go away on Friday…

Ok That's it for chapter 2. It may seem like a sub par story now but hopefully it'll get better as I go along. Keep the reviews coming they are what keep this story afloat. Also I update every Friday.
