His eyes finally adjusted to the current atmosphere. He could now easily see the water he was standing in, the way it swayed with any move of the creature behind the gate. He could see the large fence holding it back. He could see the deadly red eyes staring at him. He stood there like frozen, just staring back at the creature. He knew very well what it was, but found it rather strange seeing it. He wasn't afraid of it, but he didn't want to be there either. He had better things to do, he had to figure out what had happened to him, and why he couldn't remember certain things and certain people. The males eyebrows narrowed in annoyance. But he knew that he was there for a reason, and that he should see what it wanted, and get it over with.
'' Oi, Nine-tails! What do you want now? '' The blonde asked, irritation was obvious in his voice.
The fox moved closer to the fence, it's whole head was now visible to the male. He grinned in a way, showing his large white teeth, attempting to frighten the male. '' Don't talk to me like that, Naruto. ''
The blonde folded his arms, and placed them across his chest as she looked at the fox. He closed his eyes, and a light smirk formed on his lips. '' I don't have time to waste here! ''
'' Believe it or not, i'm trying to help you, help you remember to be precise. '' The foxs voice echoed.
Narutos eyes widen as he heard those words. He unfolded his arms and moved them to his body, then a few inches away as he formed fists. '' I can't remember anything dattebayo! I don't know what happened to me, how i got in the hospital, or who are those voices i've been hearing! ''
'' Calm down! '' The nine-tails yelled out, as a wave of water was formed, surrounding the male and bringing him closer to the gates.
The blonde let out a sigh, as she was once again able to feel the ground under his feet. He was willing to listen to the fox, willing to give him a try. He wanted to do anything he could so he remembers. Maybe the Nine-tails could help him, maybe he will remember everything with it's help. '' Alright, i'm listening. ''
The Nine-tails smirked, as it wasn't planning on talking or telling him what had happened. It would take too much time to explain, and to tell him all the facts about his life that he had forgotten. It wasn't about to waste it's time like that, but make it quicker, and also, more effective. The orange fur started to move as the fox focused it's chakra. A red chakra string was soon visible, and it began moving towards Naruto.
The males eyes widen as he realized that a blue chakra was flowing out of his body and about to connect with the Nine-tails red one. He decided to trust the fox, and just let their chakras bind. The Nine-tails chakra soon absorbed Narutos and made it's way to his chest. Naruto closed his eyes, feeling the chakra inside of him. Then it happened. He could see.
He saw a male, with spiky white hair and a mask covering his face. He saw him standing next to a man with black hair and large, bushy eyebrows. They were fighting someone, another male with spiky black hair and scars on half of his face, as if something crushed it. Their fighting kept going, and it seemed that no one would soon win.
Then, he saw himself. The corners of his eyes were orange, and he formed a ball of chakra in his palm, trying to hit a man with long brown hair. He missed. The man stared at him, with red eyes. The two continued their fight, and Naruto had taken many hits, some more dangerous then others.
His eyes opened widely, as the flashback ended. His brain was trying to remember as much as it could, trying to recreate those vital moments. He could feel his head hurting, but he didn't care. His eyes closed once again, as a different image was shown.
This time, he saw himself training with a white haired male. The male made fun of the way he couldn't do the Summoning jutsu. All Naruto could summon was a toad. He was getting frustrated by his failure.
Then, he saw himself fighting an orange haired male, who wore a black robe with red marks over it. He saw his village in ruins.
He saw the woman in a green cape whos life he had saved.
He saw a female with dark hair laying on the ground, bleeding.
Those images flashed trough his mind at high speed, and he couldn't control them. His headache turned to a pulsing one, the pain was something he currently couldn't take. He placed both of his hands on the sides of his head, tightly holding it. '' Stop it! No more images, just stop! '' He exclaimed.
The red chakra began pulling away from the males body, as only blue was shown. Chakra strings disappeared, as the male fell on his knees. His breathing was short, and had no rhythm. His eyes were still wide open, as he was trying to calm himself down, and turn his heartbeat back to normal. He wanted to remember, he had to and he felt so close to remembering those faces, but he couldn't. Something was still blocking his memory and he wanted it gone. He slowly stood up, and looked at the fox.
'' Alright, let's do this again. But slowly. Got it? ''
The Nine-tails nodded, as the connection between their chakras was once again made. It decided to show him different things, and was hoping they would trigger his memory.
