-Rubs her eyes tiredly and yawns- Hey everyone, sorry that I haven't updated lately I've just been so fricken busy.-Sighs-
Blinded by faith I couldn't hear...
Nikita sat where she had been dropped for a while before she shakily got to her feet and grabbed her stuff and quietly ran to her room. She locked the door behind her and looked around, if there was one word to describe the room it would be drab. It was very simple a bed with blue sheets, black walls, a dresser, a night stand with a lamp, two book shelves, a closet, a ceiling fan with a light, a window, and another door which Nikita guessed led to the bathroom.
'I should really decorate this room when I have the chance to...like add some orange or something.'
She smirked a little when Kyuubi gave her an image of Sasuke having a heart attack upon learning that one of his rooms had become orange paradise.
'Sasuke...'
She sighed.
"Man that was stupid...I should have never said anything to him...he probably hates me now. Scratch that, he probably hates me even more now."
She didn't feel like putting anything away at the moment so she just peeled off her clothes and changed into some pajamas, which consisted of a large tee shirt, pants, and of course her nightcap that Iruka-sensei had given her. Taking her hair out of her pigtails she crawled into the bed and curled up tightly.
It was half past midnight and Nikita still hadn't fallen asleep, so Kyuubi decided to interfere.
You still haven't fallen asleep yet Kit, you still feeling guilty over giving it to the Uchiha?
'Hai, I do. I feel so stupid. Teme's right...I am a baka.'
No you're not! You are not an idiot Kit. He's just so wracked up with bitterness that he can't see anything past his revenge.
Nikita shifted uncomfortably in the blankets. Kyuubi flicked one of her nine tails and sighed.
Would you like it if I told you a story about the tailed demons Kit?
Nikita brightened up a little, when she was a small child and couldn't sleep Kyuubi would tell her stories to help her sleep but at that age she thought it was just her imagination.
'Hai, I would like that very much Kyuubi-chan.'
Alright Kit, I will tell you the story of Shukaku the one tailed demon and Yuurei the two tailed demon.
Nikita closed her eyes so Kyuubi could give her images as the story went on.
As you know Shukaku is the one tailed demon, the weakest of all the tailed demons but still a force to be reckoned with. He's a tanuki and like all tanuki he has a fondness for sake. And Yuurei is the two tailed neko, she mostly kept to herself because she was very shy, preferring not to be in the company of males. Shukaku was a fool, he believed that he could bed any female demon he met and he had managed to do the very thing with many non-tailed female demons. But he was after one of us female tailed demons, I was out of the question since I was the queen of the demons but there was still shy little Yuurei. Back then we weren't the giants we appear as today and we where the size of normal animals, albeit a little larger. One day after Shukaku had come from a large drinking session he went to Yuurei's den and pounded on the opening with his tail.
"Yuurei-hime, come out come out where ever you are!"
Yuurei timidly came out of her den and stood in front of Shukaku.
"Wh-what can I do f-for you Shukaku-san?"
He got uncomfortably close to her and wrapped his one tail around her two.
"I would like YOU, the beautiful two tailed Yuurei to spend a night with ME!"
He gave Yuurei a lecherous grin as he spoke. Yuurei was now very frightened by this point and backed away from him.
"G-gomen Shukaku-san b-but I do not want to m-mate with anyone at th-this point of time."
Her answer made Shukaku angry and he attacked her.
"BITCH! No woman dares to defy me, the great Shukaku!"
In her defense she attacked him with her ghost fire and escaped to seek council with me.
It took her a few hours to reach my den and upon seeing her I could see that she was extremely upset.
"Yuurei-san. What ails you? You look frightened."
She bowed her head in respect and told me her troubles with Shukaku.
"Oh great Kyuubi-sama, Shukaku-san asked me to mate with him but I told him I did not wish to. In a blind rage he attacked me so I defended myself with my ghost fire and came to seek advise from you, the wisest of all the tailed demons."
I knew of Shukaku's perverted habits and to be honest, I was getting sick of them.
"Alright, I shall help you Yuurei-san I have a plan to teach him a lesson."
My plan of course, was a prank for as you know many kitsunes are tricksters. I gave Yuurei instructions on what to do and sent her off to prepare.
The next day Yuurei sought out Shukaku who was yet again drunk.
"Ah my sweet Yuurei-hime! You have sought me out, surely this means you wish to sleep with me?"
Trembling ever so slightly Yuurei replied.
"H-hai Shukaku-san, b-but before first I w-was thinking that we c-could have some sake, t-to help set the m-mood."
Shukaku who could not resist the thought of having some sake hurriedly agreed and followed Yurei to a clearing. Looking around the clearing Shukaku saw no sake and became angry again.
"Where the Hell is my sake neko?!"
"Up here tanuki-teme!"
Shukaku looked up to see me push an empty sake barrel on top of him so he was blinded and his arms where pinned to his side. Shukaku roared with anger and tried to get the barrel off but to no avail. Then I leapt off of the tree and onto the barrel and banged it with my paws as I chanted.
"Tan-tan-tanuki no kintama wa! Kaze mo nai no ni! Bura bura!"
Soon enough more female demons came into the clearing and began to chant with me, most of them where demons that Shukaku had slept with.
"No no! Stop it stop it!"
I lept off of the barrel and with one of my nine tails slammed the barrel with sent it hurtling into a tree and it smashed to smithereens, reveling a humiliated Shukaku. The female demons started laughing while I just gave him a cold glare.
"Get out of my sight you pathetic excuse for a tailed demon! And I had better never hear of you bedding another female demon ever again!"
Shukaku could only nod as he sped away ashamed. Yuurei had a bright smile on her face, knowing that Shukaku would never bother her again.
'Ha, serves that perverted demon right...'
A small smile crept onto Nikita's face as she drifted off into dreamland.
At the end of the story Nikita was fast asleep and Kyuubi settled down for bed as well.
That Uchiha had better learn fast not to mess with my Kit, otherwise he's gonna be in a shit load of trouble.
With that last though Kyuubi fell asleep.
Holy crap what a story! Just to clear some things up a tanuki is a type of raccoon-dog that's native to japan, and that song that Kyuubi chanted "Tan-tan-tanuki, no kintama wa. Kaze mo nai no ni, bura bura." Can be translated to "Tan-tan-tanuki's testicles, there isn't even any wind but still go swing-swing." Or at least that's what wikipedia said. A tanuki has been drawn having really large -Ahem- balls because real life tanuki have large -Ahem- balls, again according to wikipedia. Kitsunes are known to be major tricksters in Japanese legends. I gave the two tailed demon a name cause she doesn't have one of her own and Yuurei mean 'ghost'. Plus I don't think she's really that shy but oh well. -Shrugs- Flames will be doused by my water powers. Persistent flamers will be pelted by hail.
