'Could you repeat that?' a white-haired young man wrote.
"When I went into my mind, I found that the Kyuubi's Youkai is slowly mixing with my chakra and making it darker. The seal brought out the Kitsune Summoning Contract, and when I opened it a 'hologram' of the Kyuubi came out and told me that he was forced to attack Konoha, and that I was his first friend in a very long time. Later in the scroll it had a note saying that I was a hanyou, then I signed the Contract and came back out here." Naruto explained.
'Yeah, that's what I thought you said. Let's see… You don't have any protruding markings and you're not over two meters tall, so I'm guessing you're no farther than one-eighth demon. I can't tell about your eyes though. If they're slit, you might be farther.'
"Oh yeah, you can't colors, just shapes. Wait, you saw my eyes when we first met!"
'No, I sensed a chakra buildup in your eyes. I assumed you had a doujutsu and I was right. But anyway, go check your eyes in a puddle or something.'
"…Yeah, they're slit. The circles didn't change though! My pupils look like they stabbed through the ripples like a spear or something!" Naruto excitedly cried from a distance away.
'Yes, yes, good for you. I'm assuming that your canines are longer than normal, and your whisker marks are thicker as well. That means that you're probably closer to one-sixth. From what I was taught in my travels when you get to one-fourth you get ears, at one-third you get a tail or tails, and when you're a full hanyou you get access to your own Youkai, you become essentially immortal, stop feeling pain, and get at least one element that you can control, but since you have the Rin'negan, you might be able to control all of the elements!'
"YA-HEY! What do you mean, 'essentially' immortal?!" the Namikaze demanded.
'You can only die if every single living cell of your body is completely destroyed. You can regenerate fully if even one is left.'
"Oh. YATTA!!" he shouted, pumping his fists into the air. "I can't wait to tell Arturia and Shiro!"
'That might not be the best idea. Historically, at least in our world, demons are evil, malicious and cruel. We don't know if they'd react like the villagers to discovering your newfound… 'trait'.'
"…Way to kill my happy there, Yoru. But I suppose you're right. Don't want them trying to murder me, so what do we do?" the orange-haired shinobi asked his companion.
'I'm glad you asked! We can pass off your eyes as another level of your doujutsu. Everything else isn't too noticeable, but it can all be explained as special traits of your clan that appear as you reach the end of puberty. I guess you could also say that about ears and tails, but they might not buy that. Speaking of Arturia and Shiro, we should probably go back to the house and talk to them.' Naruto nodded and they vanished.
They arrived at Shiro's home only a minute later. Finding no one in the living room, the duo searched the bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, basement, attic, and everywhere in-between. Still, there were no signs of their two friends. "Where did they go?!" the taller of the two yelled in exasperation.
Yoru thought for a moment, and his eyes shot open in surprise. He motioned for his friend to follow, and he sped off. They moved through crowded intersections and over buildings, and came to a stop outside the church. 'Do you feel it, Naruto?'
"That malevolent power? Yeah, I feel it. Urgh!" he clutched his stomach and fell to one knee in pain. "We have to hurry! This thing, it's speeding up the process!" the ninja stood and ran into the church. "What's going on here?!" he roared.
"Ah, so good of you to come!" the voice of the 'King of Heroes' came as he threw a beaten and bloodied Arturia to the ground. "I've been waiting for you. I hope you can both show me a challenge!!" the blonde shouted as the blades again protruded from the invisible wall behind him.
Yoru quickly summoned several clones with instruments and began to play as the weapons flew. (Song is Otherworld by the Black Mages) Unlike before, Gilgamesh didn't stand still. He rushed Naruto, the blades still flying from the energy wall.
(With Naruto and Gilgamesh) The battle had only begun, but already it was fierce. The King of Heroes had taken a sword, and was in no way lacking skill. The golden armored man's arm moved at near shinobi speeds, and to any normal person watching it would have been nothing but a deadly blur.
Despite the rapid change going on inside of Naruto, he was still managing to dodge almost all of Gilgamesh's strikes, even letting off a fireball every now and then. By the time Yoru had finished his song Gilgamesh's armor was blackened in many places and Naruto was sporting several bleeding cuts. "Hahaha… Hahahaha!! You really think you can win! I admire your fighting spirit, but not even one such as you can stand up to me, a half-god. Give up and I might spare you!" the blonde shouted, a maniacal grin on his face.
"You may be half god… But I'm half demon!!" Naruto roared. Claws grew in seconds, fox ears sprouted on his head, and a dark orange tail tipped with crimson burst from his pants. Gilgamesh recoiled from the sheer power radiating from his adversary. "Not so cocky now, are you?!" he growled as he delivered bone-shattering kick to the Archer's temple.
The King of Heroes stood from the rubble and rubbed the blood from his smirking mouth. Gripping the hilt of his sword, he rushed the hanyou, leaving a shining trail behind him as he ran. Blade met claw again and again. The two were evenly matched in power, and now it was all up to chance. Whoever made the first mistake would lose.
They fought and clashed for what seemed like an eternity, when a black flash joined the fight and grabbed hold of Gilgamesh's throat. Naruto was stunned, and couldn't move. There stood his friend and companion, Yoru, and atop his head sat white, black tipped fox ears. A tail protruded from his pants, the same colors as his ears. The Namikaze didn't have time to stand in shock and shook himself loose of it. His eyes hardened as he slowly walked to the struggling king. "You have lost, Gilgamesh, and the price is your body." He said, placing his hand on top of his blonde enemy's head.
The gold-clad man screamed as the demonic chakra overtook him. His hair grew orange and his eyes rippled, quickly slowing to a stop where the marks would remain forever. His body fell limp, and the two released him. The man once hailed as the ruler of all, stood now a lifeless husk of himself.
"It's finished. Now, I think we have some things to discuss, Yoru." The orange-haired shinobi growled. "How are you a hanyou?"
Yoru removed his mask and began his recollection.
(Flashback no Jutsu!)
Yoru stood, his song only just finished. He looked over to Naruto and Gilgamesh fighting, then to Arturia. He could see that she was unconscious, but already healing. The masked shinobi looked up, and saw the girl that had commanded Heracles. There was a dark power coming off of her. 'This can't be good. I don't see the Grail…' then a realization came to him. She was the Holy Grail! But that didn't make since; the Grail was holy object and this reeked of evil.
Nevertheless, Yoru began walking towards the girl, almost in a trance-like state. He slowly made his way forward, but before he could reach her, the dark power turned and struck his front.
'Where am I?' he questioned. Turning his head from side to side, the young man realized that there was nothing solid around him. 'But that's-'
"Impossible? Quite." The masked shinobi spun to meet this new presence. In his view was an extremely large crimson kitsune. "Took you long enough. Yes, I am the Kyuubi no Kitsune. No, I haven't been transferred from the Kit to you. Why can I read your thoughts? It's easy when we're the same person. Yes, you are me and I am you. When the seal 'dealt' with us it just released us without our Youkai or memories, and in our own sixteen-year-old body, from when we were still human.
Why am I talking as if we are two different beings? The memories you have made with the Kit have made you your own person. And while I'm going to intertwine our souls, neither of us will disappear. I'll get your memories and you'll get mine. Think about it like this; do you disappear when you gain knowledge? It's basically the same setup. Why am I explaining this to you when you'll know all of this when we merge? …I don't know. Anyway, get ready for it!" the great fox spiraled towards Yoru's celestial body and pierced his heart. There was a white flash, and the white-haired ninja awoke.
(Flashback no Jutsu, KAI!)
"And that's also why I can talk. I learned about chakra seals when I was around twenty-one. Happy?"
"Y-You're the Kyuubi?!" Yoru nodded. "…Well, we'll have time to talk about that later. I've got a few questions though. Are we always going to sound like this? Why do you look like a hanyou instead of a demon? Can we change our appearance to look like normal people? And why are your hair and fur white instead of red?" Naruto asked, revealing his canines to reach just past his bottom gums.
"I'm going to have to talk like this, because if I talk in my normal voice, I'll be talking in my normal voice. I look like a hanyou because I only have half of my Youkai left. You've got the other half. And just concentrate on looking like you did to change. If you want, you can retract either your tail or your ears instead of both. My hair and fur are white because with that half of my Youkai, you got my allegiance to fire. I got my human element, water and ice."
"…Okay, well let's go find Shiro and leave. I don't want to have to explain this to them." Naruto said once his voice had returned to normal. They walked outside, and found Shiro unconscious behind the church. They took him back inside and laid him next to Arturia. After placing a note for the two once they awoke, the duo closed their eyes. The brick red door rose out of the cobblestone floor, and they left that world behind them.
(In the Hall Of Worlds)
"Alright, so you're the Kyuubi. I have a few more questions, now that I've had some time to think. First, should I call you Kyuubi or Yoru?"
"Either, but Kyuubi is just my title. Yoru is my actual name, but no one's called me that since you."
"I'll just call you Yoru. Second, I've noticed that the fur on my arm has spread a bit. How far will that go?"
"The farthest it'll spread is your sternum; the middle of your chest. It won't go lower than the bottom of your right pectoral."
"That's good to know! I was worried I'd look like a fox after a while, but anyway. Third, have you ever been here before?"
"Yeah, I've been to the HOW before. I even went to a few worlds! Good times, good times..."
"Okay... Fourth, wi- what happened to your eyes?!" Naruto shouted, this being the first time he had really looked at Yoru's face. His companions eyes, once white with a black musical note in the center, had radically changed. The sclera, (The whites of your eyes) once white, were now pitch black and his pupils were animalistically slit, and crimson; they were an inversion of Naruto's eyes, minus the ripples of course.
"I'm actually just as surprised as you about that! But hey, it's badass, and that's all that matters." the un-masked hanyou grinned.
"...On that subject, why are so different? You used to be all emotionless!"
Yoru sighed and looked into Naruto's eyes. "Kit... No... Otouto, we're immortal. Eventually, everyone we know will be dead, and anything you did to them forgotten If there's anything I've learned in the two-thousand plus years I've been alive, it's that you should have fun with your life, because punishment means nothing to us!"
"I'm going to have to get used to this whole 'immortal' thing. Those are all the questions I have now, but I'm sure I'll think up more later. For now, I'll settle for where do we go now? ...Aniki."
"Well Otouto, there's one with a big 'T' on it, the 'Jurai' universe, Spira, the 'Alchemy' world, and the 'Connected Planets', which is a universe full of different and diverse worlds. It's a lot like the HOW, but a galaxy instead of a hallway, and there are actual planets instead of doors."
"So which one to we go to?" The orange-haired hanyou inquired of his new surrogate brother.
