Mori's POV
The doorbells rang. Oji-san stopped in the middle of his sentence. He sighed and walked downstairs.
I sat completely still. I had a terrible itch in my lower back. I bit my lip before running to the bathroom. I stepped on top of the stool and looked at myself in the mirror. I turned around and looked at my lower back. It looked normal. I scratched it and skin was flaking off. I screamed. I pulled down my shirt, jumped off the stool, and ran downstairs.
"Mori, what's wrong?" Oji-san sighed.
"My skin is coming off!" I yelled.
"What are you talking about?" Oji-san massaged his temples.
"I have a bad itch and I itched it and...and my skin fell off!" I whined.
Oji Sasuke-san crooked his finger at me and I walked over to him.
"Where is it?" He asked.
"The lower part of my back," I sniffled.
He twirled me around and lifted up my shirt.
There was a long pause. "Mori, stop moving so can I see it better."
I didn't realize I was moving. I planted my feet firmly on the ground as I waited for him to tell me what it was.
"There's nothing there, Mori," he sighed.
I began to itch my back again and he slapped my hand.
"Ow!" I whined rubbing my hand.
"Don't itch it, or you'll make it worse," Ojii-san told me.
I pouted. I stuck out my bottom lip and crossed my arms over my chest. Oji Sasuke-san told me to stop. Oji Sasuke-san looked at the clock and turned back to me.
"Time for you to go to bed. You'll get a bath in the morning," he told me picking me up and caring me to my room.
"But my itch," I whined.
"Just don't itch it," he said. "It'll go away by tomorrow."
"Promise?" I asked.
"I promise," he rolled his eyes.
"Pinky promise?" I holded up my pinkie.
"Pinky promise," he sighed.
"You don't mean it! You didn't hold up your pinky!" I began to whine and kick.
"Okay okay! Pinky promise," he wrapped his pinky around mine.
I smiled. I sneezed and rubbed my nose on his shirt. He sighed again and continued walking up the stairs. He put me in a red onesie and put me on my stomach under the covers. I turned my head to look at him.
"Sleep on your stomach, so you won't accidentally scratch your itch when you're sleep," he told me.
"Good night," I said.
He began to walk away when I called him back.
"Wait!"
"What is it?"
"Can I get a good night kiss?"
"No."
"Well, can I sleep with you?"
He sighed before pecking me on the cheek. I sat up and pulled on his shirt.
"Mori."
"I'm scared," I cried.
"Of what."
"I'm scared my-my parents are going to come ba-back."
"They're not."
"How do you know?! You didn't know they were going to come!"
I began to cry hard. I didn't mean to yell like that, I was just scared.
"Can I please sleep with you?" I asked sniffling.
He picked me up and carried me out of my room. He sat me on the bed and went to go turn off the lights. He climbed under the covers and put me under there, too.
"Go to sleep," he whispered in my ear.
I sighed through my nose and closed my eyes. I soon drifted off into sleep.
I woke up the next morning with no itch! Yay, Sasuke Oji-san was right!
I got up happily and went to the bathroom. I used the bathroom, but when I sat down, something hit the toilet water and I didn't do anything! I got up and screamed. I ran to the mirror, stood on top of the stool, and turned around.
"Oji-san!" I screamed.
I heard footsteps on the stairs and he bursted through the door.
"Mori, why are you nkaee, put your onesie back on-," Oji-san looked at me. "Mori, you have a monkey's tail."
"I know!" I screeched.
"Naruto!" Oji-san yelled.
I heard more footsteps and Kaa-san appeared at the doorway.
"Kaa-san," I whimpered and ran to him. I hugged his legs. He lifted my tail.
"How did this happen?" He asked.
I slowly shook my head into his pants and shrugged.
I slid my pamper back up my legs and out my onesie back on. I walked downstairs and sat on the floor in the living room.
"It must be a characteristic of her Jinjuriki," I heard Kaa-san say.
They both came downstairs and I looked at them.
"Mori, you'll be fine," Kaa-san told me.
I nodded. Kaa-san sat on the couch above me. My teeth started to ache and I wanted to bite on something hard. I turned around and bit something without looking.
"Ouch!" Kaa-san yelled.
Uh oh...
I opened my eyes and I had bit Kaa-san's leg. He picked me up and placed me in his lap.
"Mori, why would you do that?" He asked softly.
"My teeth hurt," I said.
"Are you teething?"
Sasuke Oji-san picked me up by my shirt and I brought my knees to my chest. I had an uneasy smile on my face.
"Yeah, she's teething," Oji-san sighed.
I tried to bite his arm, but he dropped me on the floor. I rubbed my aching bottom, but not with my hand. No, my new monkey tail.
"So, cool!" I admired. "I can move it like a arm. I have three arms!"
I grabbed Kaa-san's coffee cup from the coffee table and handed it to him with my tail.
He smiled at me before thanking me. "Why, thank you, Mori."
I giggled. I went around the house to see what else I could pick up. I forgot all about my tooth ache and needing to bite something. I picked up a glass plate and it fell breaking it.
"Mori!" Sasuke Oji-san yelled.
"Sorry!" I yelled back.
I went to go look for him, and noticed he wasn't in the house. Kaa-san either. Then, who called my name?
I shrugged and danced downstairs. I bumped into something and was grabbed by my tail.
"Oh Itachi, she has a tail now," I heard a familiar voice.
I gasped.
"Kaa-san..."
I began to wail and kick.
"Ah, put me down!"
"Itachi, the nine-tails is back."
"We'll see you again, little one. Train really hard if you want us gone out of your life."
He tickled my side and I couldn't help but giggle.
"You're ticklelish," he pointed out. He dropped me on my neck and fell on my back.
They left leaving me in the house alone. I layed there thinking what the heck I'm going to do about this.
