Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or Inuyasha kk... let's hear from the kyuubi now~ ^.^
Beautiful like a Princess
Chapter 7
Priestess Kagome
Kagome always known that Naruto had some sort of demon sealed inside him. As to why, she did not know. She could only sense the great demonic energy from him. But he does no harm as long as the demon stays within him. So there were no surprises to her when she tried to stop Naruto interrupting Tsunade in her work office that she accidentally spilled the beans. Tsunade looked at her sharply.
"I know." Kagome admitted. She knew she couldn't hide it for long.
"You do?" Naruto looked ready to bolt.
"Of course she does." Kyuubi growled in Naruto's head but Naruto was busy staring at the Kagome.
Kagome sighed. "Of course I do. I could sense the fox demon energy as soon as I saw Naruto."
Immediately a kunai was pointed at her.
"I don't want to hurt you but I will to protect him, so talk fast," the Hokage vowed.
Kagome did not even blink at Tsunade.
"You could try, but I doubt you could actually succeed." the miko told her and before they could even blink a surge of pink light enveloped her and blasted Tsunade away from her.
Naruto gasped and reached for Kagome but as he came near, the miko's energy he flinched back, feeling his hands burnt.
"What the hell is that!" Tsunade cried out.
"This." Kagome pointed to herself. "Is holy energy."
Kagome sighed. "This is going to take a while." She looked at Tsunade and Naruto to make sure. She liked them both.
Tsunade was like Kaede, a teacher, someone to trust and now someone to care for her when she got hurt.
Naruto was like Shippo, creative, loud and mischievous, but also like Inuyasha, shunned by everyone. It really hurt her to leave him alone.
They deserved to know the truth.
Kagome's eyes focused on the seal on Naruto's stomach. She could feel the fox, see the spirals of the seal and she hated that such a proud beast was now nothing more than a prisoner. The miko had not forgotten her awe and admiration at Sesshomaru's true form.
"Kyuubi." she spoke then. "You can come out and take transparent form you know, I'm sure you wanna know too."
Naruto blinked. "Wha-?"
And to his surprise Kyuubi's chakra flared, it was light but visible. Kyuubi look his usual self with his nine tails but just transparent due to still being binded by the spell. But Kagome's leash of Holy energy from before made the spell a bit lose and enough for him to come out but do no harm and appear transparent.
"Kyuubi?" Naruto gasped.
Tsunade trembled. But the Fox Demon had eyes only for one person.
"Miko."
Kagome smiled. "My, you look cute! Can I rub those ears of yours?"
THAT earned her the attention of Tsunade and Naruto while the demon growled in warning.
Kagome shrugged. "Suit yourself." she told him. "I know how foxes like attention. I raised a fox kit you know. Shippo-chan was a menace, I could barely keep up, but scratch the belly and he turned to mush. So did Sesshomaru, no matter how much he protested."
"Hold on!" Naruto yelled. "I don't understand. What is going on here? First Kagome attacks ba-chan. Then does that zap thingy to all of us and now the fox is out? How did you get out? You're not supposed to be out!"
Kyuubi snorted. Then he dropped down on the mat casually while pinning his red gaze on the dark haired woman. "Yes, miko, do explain. I'm interrested."
"My name is Kagome." Kagome returned the glare. "Call me any other name and I'll fry your ass. Got it?"
The demon snorted again but did not verbally argue.
Kagome turned to Tsunade and Naruto. "Fluffy here is correct. You need to sit. It will be a while. First you need to know about me. My name is Kagome Higurashi and I was born in Tokyo, Japan, but then I was accidentally transported back hundred years ago due to me falling through an ancient well." Kagome decided to leave out the part of her age otherwise it would of made it more confusing. The young girl started from the beginning, telling her story about how as a 15 year old had been dragged into the past through that blessed and at the same time cursed well. She spoke about each of her friends, Inuyasha, Shippo, Miroku, Sango and Kirara, and their stories, how she met them and what each of them could do. She also spoke of her allies and enemies. About Sesshomaru, her enemy, turned ally, turned friend, and his tag along group. Then she spoke about Kouga and his pack. The young miko did not leave out Naraku and his evil deeds, or the hanyou's end. Lastly, Kagome spoke of her arrival in the shinobi world. She explained about what it meant to be a miko or a houshi. And by the time she was done she had shocked them speechless. She told them everything but the existence of the Shikon jewel.
"And now I've ended up here." Kagome finished. She noticed Tsunade rubbing her temples. Naruto was dazed from all this information. The fox demon held no expression the same a pensive look in his red eyes. But amused at the story. For a second or two, the room was silent. Then once everyone has processed the information they have received and sank into their brains Tsunade groaned and pinned Kagome with a hard gaze. "You are a magnet for trouble."
Kagome looked indignant at that.
"And you have the worst luck." Naruto told Kagome once Tsunade was finished.
Kagome laughed. "You think so as well?"
Tsunade rubbed her temples. "This is just too much to process at once."
Kagome smiled. "Of course. It'll take time."
"Yes." the Hokage agreed. "But I know that I can trust you. And it's starting to make sense."
Kagome smiled. "Can we go then? You look like you need a rest Tsunade-sama."
Tsunade nodded and dismissed her and Naruto.
