Hey, guys! Sorry about the wait. I've had a few minor problems, like school, weekdays, the works. Anyway, a new chapter is being made here. Oh, yeah! I've have received a few suggestions from reviewers.

1. FemKyuubi-7

2. Anko-6

3. Kurenai-3

4. Yakumo-1

5. FemHaku-2

6. Tayuya-1

7. Sasame-1

8. Isaribi-1

9. Mei-2

10. Yuugao-2

11. Yakumo-1

...Well, a lot of suggestions. The ones on top...might be included. Others...I'm still thinking about it. Majority is for femkyuubi. Also, I'm planning to add Fire element to Naruto's affinity, due to the Kyuubi. Question, what kind of combo would wind and fire would make? I want Naruto to have a Kekkei Genkai that only he can use...like Hashirama Senju uses the Wood Element. I'm planning it to be something called 'Heat Element'.

Anyways, enjoy!

Oh, yeah! Disclaimer: I do not own anything on this fanfic.


Chapter 2

Meeting the Kyuubi and Finding out the Truth

Mindscape

Naruto awoke. First, he felt...wet? ...the hell? Where...Oh! Now I know! Those stupid villagers threw me down this hellhole to drown? Heh! Not gonna happen! I'm Uzumaki Naruto, until I become Hokage, I refuse to die!

That's the spirit, Naruto. A deep voice said from somewhere

Alright, I know that did not just happen.

It did happen.

That was weird. Whoever's stalking me must be reading minds.

Hmmm, I guess you could say that.

I knew it! "Hello! Where is the exit here?" Naruto shouted to nowhere in particular and knowing that...

The exit? The exit will be when you wake up, Naruto...the hell? When he wakes up?

"What kind of a joke is this?"

This is not a joke, Naruto. This is real... Come, follow the red line.

A very thin red line (I mean, as thin as string, no thanks to the seal! Oh, and the string lights up once every 20 seconds) appeared on the ground. Naruto followed it.

After following the line (which was so daymn hard!), he found himself in front of a veeeeeeeerrrrrrryyyyy big cage.

"Awesome! I'm probably the first guy to find this cage! Hmmm, now, to find the exit."

I told you, kit. The exit will be when you wake up.

"Huh? Where are you? And why are you talking to me in riddles?"

I'm in the cage, dolt!

"Cage?" He looked back and saw two, large, red, slitted eyes staring at him.

Welcome, Naruto, to your mindscape.

"Mindscape? What's that?"

Kyuubi fell anime-style. You've got to be kidding me. Years and years of training to be a ninja and you don't know what a mindscape is? Geez, what do they teach you there?

"Uhhhhh, they didn't teach me anything, sir. They, uh, simply let me do stuff on my own."

The killing intent given off by Kyuubi was powerful enough for it to leak out of Naruto.

The Hospital

Hiruzen noticed the increasing tension in the room. He simply waved it off... Wait. This isn't tension...it's KI! But...Naruto!

He was right. He noticed Naruto's whiskers growing more feral, his claws sharpening, and a red chakra leaking off him.

Kyuubi! Shit! So soon? But as soon as he felt it, it left. What happened?

Naruto's Mindscape

"Calm down, please, I don't wanna get in trouble, sir." Naruto said, trying to calm the two big orbs down.

Sorry about that. I've always wanted to see how much you've grown, Naruto.

"What do you mean?" Naruto said, eyes going...how would you say closed.

Do you know about the Kyuubi, Naruto?

"Kyuubi? Yeah! It was killed by the Yondaime when it attacked Konoha... Wait...Kyuubi no Yoko. Nine-tailed Demon...NANI? How come you're alive?"

Calm down, kit. Your father simply...kit? Kyuubi noticed that Naruto was staring into the front of the gate while his eyes were wide.

Naruto's scream of "NANI?" was so loud that Hiruzen, Shion, Kitaga, the others and Kami could have sworn they heard a voice somewhere.

"THE YONDAIME WAS MY FATHER?"

Yes, kit. Now sit down let me explain. Before, there was only one great beast, the Juubi. He was the most powerful demon alive. But he was thwarted by the Rikudou Sennin by sealing it inside himself. Quite an impressive feat. Not only that, but he managed to keep it at bay! Anyway, the Rikudou Sennin had two children, the Uchihas and the Senjus, in which both had different perspectives on how to keep the peace. The Uchiha, being the older brother, thought that power was the key to peace. The Senju, being the younger one, thought that love was the key to peace. The Rikudou Sennin, then chose the Senju as the clan heir, in which the Uchiha was in outrage. Skipping the family feud, when the Rikudou Sennin was dying, he knew that the seal would break when he died so, being the God of Shinobi as he is, he split the chakra into nine, thus creating the great bijuus. (Technically, the off-lying chakras also merged to form the Reibi, but it was not powerful enough to become its own body without others.) After that, he used the legendary Chibaku Tensei to put Juubi's body into the moon. Since then, the 10 beasts (including the Reibi) ravaged the land, and one by one, sealed into different people. I was sealed in you by your father, Namikaze Minato, the Yondaime Hokage, Konoha no Kiroi Senkou (Was I right?), whatever you want to call him.

Naruto was soooooooo entranced by the story that all he did was stare into those big red eyes after the explanation.

Kit? Kit? KIT?

"Huh? Oh! Right! Anyway, how did I get here?"

Uhhh...you were almost dead so I brought you here.

"Why again?"

I don't know, really. But now that you're here. I just want to say, I'm sorry.

"For what?"

For making your life a living hell...

"You did? Hmm, well, I didn't notice that." Kyuubi...really big sweatdrop.

Is this kid for real? He just got severely injured a few hours ago and he says he didn't notice that he was almost killed? Kit, I'm talking about that incident a while ago.

"Oh! You mean that... I didn't notice that one, too, hehe! But one question, why?"

Why what?

"Why do you feel sorry? Surely, you should feel happy that your jailer is being punished for this."

Kit, for one, the Queen of Demons and Kitsunes are not without honor, if they are the cause for something, they feel sorrowful for what they've done and try to fix it, even if it kills them; and two, if you die, I die, so why should I happy if you are, in your case, punished?

"Oooookay. Wait...Queen? You are a female?"

What? Didn't you know that? Oh wait, you didn't. You have been calling me sir since you were in here.

Naruto sweat-dropped. "Okay, fine, I get it. Prove to me first that you are a female."

Fine. Kyuubi's eyes suddenly began getting smaller, until it became the size of a human's. Out of the darkness comes the most beautiful woman Naruto has ever seen. She was approximately 5'4", had moderate sized breasts (I don't do sizes like D-Cup, C-Cup, that sorta crap), red hair, red, slitted eyes, and a perfect hourglass figure. Heck, it could even put Naruto's Oiroke no Jutsu to shame. It took all of Naruto's willpower to prevent a high-powered nosebleed. Kyuubi giggled at his reaction.

So you like what you see, huh? As long as we're here, take a good look, Na-ru-to-kun. Kyuubi ended her statement with Naruto's name with the suffix, seductively. That had done it for Naruto. He flew back with a massive nosebleed. Kyuubi giggled. That always works. Now then, Naruto-kun, I want you to do me a favor.

Naruto straightened up. "What?"

First, let me ask you a question. How much tails would you want me to give you?

"Tails? Am I going to become a Hanyou?" Kyuubi shook her head.

No, Naruto-kun. I'm giving you some of my chakra. Apparently, this seal was designed to mix your chakra with mine. But it didn't specify how much. Since this is your mindscape, you get to choose how many tails worth of chakra I am giving you. Besides, you need someone to protect you, right?

"Okay. You have nine tails..." He started muttering to himself, causing Kyuubi to form a sweatdrop. "Maybe 6 tails is all I need." As if the seal heard him, the paper seal on the cage showed 9 folds. Naruto walked over to them, and cautiously tore out 3 folds. Immediately, Kyuubi disappeared from the mindscape, and red chakra wrapped around him.

The Hospital

Naruto was wrapped with black smoke. Hiruzen knew this feeling. "Back away! Back away!" Shion, Kitaga, and the others backed away, too. When the black smoke cleared, the group was shocked at what they saw. Apparently where Naruto was, there now was Naruto lying down on the bed with a red haired woman, kissing him on the lips (I just made this one up. When Kyuubi was about to be released, she is supposed to kiss Naruto to give him the designated amount of tails, but this was made in the real world...probably for fun). Naruto woke up and upon seeing Kyuubi, he sat up.

"What the hell, Kyuubi? You didn't tell me that you have to kiss me for the transfer to work." Kyuubi giggled.

"To tell you the truth, Naruto-kun, it had to be done in your mindscape. But I found a loophole. It can also be done out here." Kyuubi said, with a wink. Naruto pouted.

"You didn't have to do it in the open, where lot of people could see us... Wait...this is a hospital...then," Naruto looked around to find Hiruzen, Shion, Kitaga, and the others backed up on the wall. "Hey, Jii-san. I hope I didn't scare you with Kyuubi-chan here." Kyuubi blushed at the -chan suffix.

Hiruzen stood transfixed at the event that has transpired. "Naruto, what is going on here? And what do you mean 'Kyuubi-chan'?"

After a minute or two of explaining, Hiruzen began the introductions. "Naruto, meet the priestess, Miroku-sama's, daughter, Shion. Shion-sama and company, I would like you to meet Uzumaki Naruto."

"Jii-san, no need to hide the fact that I am the Yondaime's son." Hiruzen was shocked.

"How did you know?"

"Heh, I forgot to include that at the explanation." Naruto said, while scratching the back of his head.

Kitaga spoke up. "Hokage-sama, don't tell me that Naruto-san is the son of the Yondaime Hokage. If he is, then why did the villagers attack him?" Hiruzen looked at Kitaga. How did he know who Minato was?

Taking his silence as him wondering how he knew, "Well, Hokage-sama, Minato-sama was well known outside of Konoha. His great defeat of the Iwa army had been spread everywhere, even to the Land of Demons. If we had known that he was Minato-sama's son, then we could have been here a few hours earlier than normal. We could have seen with our own eyes if he is Minato-sama's son, and now we have. He is his father's splitting image."

"Indeed."

"Now, back to my first question. Why did the villagers attack him? Didn't they know his heritage?" Hiruzen bowed his head in shame.

"I...I didn't tell them his heritage, yet."

"You WHAT?" Kitaga shouted at Hiruzen. "THE VILLAGERS HAVEN'T BEEN TOLD OF HIS HERITAGE YET?"

"I'm sorry, but Minato had so many enemies in Iwa. If word got out, Naruto would have lots of enemies, and that would add up to his problem in Konoha, too."

"Regardless of the circumstances, why couldn't you protect him? You're the Hokage. Surely, you could have done something to help him in his life here."

"I tried. But every law I made, the villagers always managed to find a loophole in it. Eventually I gave up." Hiruzen turned to Naruto. "I'm sorry, Naruto. Life must have been hell for you here. I would help you much but..."

Naruto made a thinking pose. "Maybe you can...can I have my mom and dad's scrolls? I don't want to go to the Namikaze clan estate yet. They might try to kill me for 'defiling even the Yondaime's house'. Besides, I always wanted to see my parent's techniques." Naruto turned to the Land of Demon's immigrants. "If you want I can teach some of them to you."

Kitaga shook his head. "Iie, Naruto-san. We have no need for such an honor. However, if you agree to it, you can teach Shion-sama some of your techniques."

"It would be an honor to teach the daughter of the priestess of the Land of Demons the techniques of my parents."

Kyuubi put an arm around him and whispered something into his ear. Naruto nodded. "I'm afraid we have to schedule the teaching some other time, Shion-sama. Kyuubi-chan told me that my whole month is booked by training." Kyuubi pouted.

"I didn't say that your whole month is taken. There is still the weekends, Naruto-kun."

"Oh, yeah." Naruto turned to Hiruzen. "Now, jii-san, if you will."

Hiruzen nodded. "Hai, Naruto-kun. Follow me to the Hokage Tower and we'll get your parent's scrolls... And discuss your ninja application."

Naruto's head shot up. "N-Ninja Ap-application? You want me to be a ninja, Jii-san?"

"Of course, Naruto-kun. After all, you always wanted to be one, right?"

"Hai, Jii-san.." Naruto thought about something. "Ne, Jii-san, when does the academy start?"

"Hmm? I think a week from now."

"Great! Gives me enough time to train! By the way, Jii-san, do you know any free training grounds around here?" Naruto asked Hiruzen.

Hiruzen took out a map from his drawer. "Which one would you have in mind, Naruto-kun?"

"Hmm, you got something that villagers doesn't go to, ninjas find dangerous, and very far away from the village?"

Hiruzen was downtrodden. All those criterias fall on one place: Training Ground 44 a.k.a. The Forest of Death.


Hey, guys! Sorry about the long wait! I had a bit of trouble with my train of thought. Oh, and please tell me if this chapter falls under the 'I hate it' category. I'll try to make up for it in the later chapters.
