Dreaming had been interesting. We had shared one. He was a fox about the size of a horse and I was how I used to be and we were running through a forest running away from a mob, but running towards a place that felt like a home. Just when we reached our destination we woke up. It was noon now and we had been practicing some basic ninja skill kunai and shuriken throwing, kawarimi and taijutsu. We were now trying to find a village or road so we could find out where we were. "How do you think we got here?" I asked. I was confused, I could tell we were no longer in Konoha and I didn't know how we arrived.
"It must have been an instinctual jutsu that our transformation lets us do. Do you remember what was happening when it was performed?"
"Well I was scared and sad because of Iruka-sensei trying to kill me an u just wanted to go away and be somewhere safe. I was leaning against the tree and it was like I just sort of fell into it and then I was in the clearing." I thought this over speaking slowly trying to remember what I had done. If we/I could copy what I had done before it could be very useful and it would be our first jutsu. I could almost hear Kyuu's thoughts now, it was like a low murmur or a loud whisper. We could now pick up where the other wanted to move but to do something like climb or do a complicated taijutsu we still needed to communicate with the other. Kyuu was often mean and sarcastic but it was nice to be with someone after being alone for so long. So when Kyuu began to go towards the tree I instinctively began to walk to the tree also.
"Put you're hand on the tree and try to "fall into it" again. I want to see what happens." Nodding our head I raised my white arm and places my hand on the trees rough surface. I was surprised when I could feel it thrumming and Kyuu's interest peeked. I focused on melting into the tree. Kyuu sensing my difficulty keeping focus helped me. He relaxed himself in a meditative like way and it made it easier to relax and focus almost like he was the concentration and I was the what directed it. Soon we found ourselves inside of the tree. It was amazing it was like being wrapped in a large blanket. I/we were still aware of what was happening outside. It was being inside a one way glass dome, but I/we could feel the tree's life, how it's roots extended far underground, how that connected to other plants. I was in awe as a new world unfolded before my/our eyes. It was like I could feel the entire world. I moved us through it, wanting experience everything.
"Are you a retart brat? Stop goofing off and get out of here, do you even know what the hell you're doing?" pissed off Kyuu growled at me. Realizing he was right I quickly stepped out only to realize we were 400m from the clearing from earlier, it had only been 5-8 seconds. I was amazed we had moved so fast! If I/we could learn to do this and predict where we came out and be in control of where we were going, it could be used to do so many things! Think of all the prey I could catch, the amount I could slaughter, I can taste the kills already! Just going from one to the next to the next! With a jolt I realized I had finally heard Kyuu's thoughts. "I don't want the hurt innocent people!" I blurted out before I could stop myself. His frustration at ruining his "happy thoughts" washed over me, making me subconsciously shudder.
"You will do what I say boy." It was hissed out slowly.
"But I don't want to hurt people who have done nothing wrong." I whispered it softly. The thoughts of hurting of good people making me sick.
"I don't care I wish for blood you worthless brat, I wish for blood an I will have it." It was growled out angrily and scared me, I had never seen him get so worked up before.
"W w w-what if we only hurt the bad people? Then you could kill people who deserved it and I would fee better for not hurting the nice people." I stuttered it out hoping he would go for if. I could still feel his anger at me for questioning him but he seemed appeased by my idea.
"So you wouldn't care as long as its a bad guy is what you're saying? Kukuku I can work with that." I could feel his mind wander back to killing and I was just relieved he gave in so easily.
"Let's see of we can get this tree thingy down pack." And with that we sunk into the closest tree.

By evening we could effectively travel through the trees. We realized we could also sink right into the ground and travel that way. This worked everywhere there was roots and other suck things. We were currently looking of something to eat. Every time we went to eat a berry or fruit a sick feeling would make us feel nauseous. Suddenly our head shot to the right. At the edge of our senses we could feel three people. One of the presences seemed to disappear and the two left were coming in our direction. We quickly hid in a tree until they past by. After they were gone we stepped out. All we could smell was the most delicious sent and we began running towards it. We were starving, having not eaten in days. We reached a clearing where the sent was strongest and almost all thoughts had left us except to find the source of the scent. Looking around the quickly we quickly found what was making our mouth water. The in the center surrounded by blood was the corpse of a man.
