So… like I said, this is on the back burner but I couldn't help but take a small break and work on this. Just so you know, I would rather do YouTube than this any day but I chose to do it for you all. Anyways, thanks for reading, see ya later!

-break-

We see Naruto and Kurama waking up after their first round of 'fun'. How will their day go now that they are mated? Find out, now!

-break-

Yawn "Kurama, you awake?" Naruto asked.

"No, I'm trying to sleep. Leave me be for a little longer." Kurama grumbled, mad at being awoken so early.

And so, Naruto waited for an hour. He went to get some ramen, miso to be exact, and came back to find Kurama getting up. He got scared, not for himself - but for her. Being tied to her life gave him the knowledge of when something was wrong or… new…

"WAIT, STOP!" Naruto yelled, getting Kurama's attention. "Don't move, I need to check you. I can feel something… off about you…"

"What is it? Is it something bad, or something good?" Kurama asked as he checked her over.

"I… I don't believe it… after just one time…" Naruto mumbled.

"What?! What's wrong?!" Kurama asked, getting scared and upset he wouldn't tell her.

"You might not believe me but… we're going to be parents!" Naruto exclaimed, excitement in him voice.

"WE'RE WHAT?!" Kurama yelled, promptly passing out.

"KURAMA?! KURAMA?!" Naruto exclaimed, seeing his mate faint.

-Several hours later

"Ugh, what happened? Why do I feel like shit?" Kurama asked.

"Well, you see, you passed out after hearing we were going to be parents." Naruto said.

"Oh yea- WAIT WHAT?!" Kurama yelled, not passing out this time.

"Huh, I expected you to pass out again." Naruto said.

"Thanks for having high hopes for me." Kurama said, her voice dripping with sarcasm.

"No problem dear." Naruto said, being a smart-ass.

"Whatever, we need to train you to beat Gaara and Shukaku. They aren't pushovers and I'm going to have to teach you some of my own Jutsu to beat them. Now, move it to the training field." Kurama said, ignoring her 'condition.'

-at the field-

"Now, the first technique you will learn is known as the Fox style: Raging Inferno." Kurama said. "Just go through the ram, tiger, boar and fox hand signs to use it. This is my weakest Jutsu and is also one you have seen before."

Naruto got nervous and excited at the same time. Nervous because he knew the devastation her weakest Jutsu caused last time and excited because he would be learning her Jutsu.

"If I don't get this right in an hour what is going to happen?" Naruto asked, knowing she would only give him an hour.

"Well, other than not getting any of this-" kurama said, gesturing to her body. "You will be put through hell as I train you till you drop."

"O-oh… O-ok…" Naruto said.

"Now, get to it." Kurama said.

"Yes ma'am!" Naruto said.

"Ram, tiger, boar, fox. Fox style: Raging Inferno!" Naruto shouted.

As he should this, flames of unimaginable heat shot up from around him. They scorched the ground, burned the trees and even melted his shuriken. He heard Kurama scream in pain for a second before he stopped the Jutsu.

"KURAMA!" Naruto yelled as he saw her collapse from pain. "KURAMA! KURAMA, ARE YOU ALRIGHT?! PLEASE, TALK TO ME!"

"Na-naru-naruto… ju-just gi-give me so-some time… I wi-will b-be fi-fine…" Kurama stuttered from the pain. "Y-you ca-can b-beat th-them n-no pro-problem… d-don't wor-worry ab-about m-me… th-this i-is ju-just a cl-clone of m-my cha-chakra… I ca-can co-come back an-any ti-time I wa-want…"

"KURAMA, I'M SO SORRY! PLEASE FORGIVE ME!" Naruto yelled, afraid of losing her and mad he had hurt her. "I-I WASN'T THI-THINKING RI-RIGH! I'M SO-SORRY!"

"Naruto… yo-you can't lo-lose me… do-don't worry… a-and I for-forgive y-you…" Kurama said before she passed out.

"NO!" Naruto yelled in anguish.

-several days later-

"N-Naruto?" Kurama asked, finally waking up.

"K-Kurama? A-are you OK?" Naruto asked, tearing up.

"I-I think so… How long was I out?" Kurama asked.

"Kurama, you've been out for five days. We missed the graduation announcements." Naruto said.

Kurama just stared at him blankly, trying to wrap her head around all this.

"WE WHAT?!" Kurama yelled, finally understanding everything.

"It's fine dear, I was told to get Asia and Sanu when you woke up and take you to the Hokage." Naruto said.

"Oh, well OK th-WAIT, YOU KNOW THEIR REAL NAMES?! HOW?!" Kurama yelled.

"Kurama, its OK. They told me everything when they saw how strong you had help me become and how badly you were hurt. They told me how you had almost destroyed the village, how they had killed my father, not know about me and even how they felt like they owed me. They told me that I wasn't supposed to know this and I was only getting to know this in case you didn't make it." Naruto said. "Though, I wish you had told me sooner so I didn't have to wonder how he died. I don't hate either of them or you. I'm just disappointed, slightly."

'Damn them. I told them not to let him find out! Seems I'm going to have to pay them a visit soon.' Kurama thought.

"I'm sorry Naruto, I just never wanted to risk you being mad. I thought that if you didn't know, I could get closer to you and then let you know the full story." Kurama said. "I'm sorry, Naruto."

"Kurama, you're fine. I told you, I don't hate you, only feel a little disappointed. I know you meant well and I thank you for that, but next time, tell me instead of hiding it, OK?" Naruto said.

"I understand, let's go get the others shall we? We have a visit with the Hokage after all." Kurama said.

And so, they went to get Asia and Sanu to see the Hokage. After they were in his office, he told them to take a seat.

"What is this about old man? You know Kurama shouldn't be walking yet so why call us here?" Naruto asked.

"I called you all here to say that Naruto is now a Chunin. The council pushed to keep him Genin though. I used some good old logic and told them the display he gave was at least mid Chunin to high Chunin." Hiruzen said, turning to Naruto. "Naruto, with how you acted out on the field with Neji, it was even harder to get you to Chunin. Just so you know, if you ever want to rank up to Jonin, you can't pull that stunt again."

"If I say he is ready to be a Jonin, he will become a Jonin." Kurama said. "Nobody knows him better than I do and he should already be a Jonin at least. His strength is what keeps me from seeing him as a Jonin."

"Kurama, stop, he isn't saying I won't become a Jonin, in saying it will take time and patients. Isn't that right, Gramps?" Naruto said.

"Exactly right, my boy. Where you stand now, you would never be able to take on a Jonin, let alone two or three. I also have to know, why did you give Kakashi the credit for training you? Everyone knew you weren't on his team, so why?" Hiruzen said.

"Well, he needed to have some recognition. He has failed all but one of his teams before hasn't he? It has to seem like he can be a good Sensei and not just a failure when it comes to training students." Naruto said. "Plus, it was nice to see him flustered and confused when I did that."

"Wait, so you not only gave him credit he didn't deserve, but also saw his expression?"

"Yep."

"Wow…"

"Can we go now or not?"

"Sure, go ahead, I don't care at this point."

As they left the Hokage building, Kurama chewed Asia and Sanu out for telling Naruto everything. Naruto did manage to calm her down with the promise of some 'fun' later.

Man, my chapters seem to be getting shorter and shorter. Good news though, for those of you who have read my one-shot, I, with a little help from a reader, decided to make it a full length story. It shouldn't be long before the second chapter is out.

Thanks for reading once again, remember, this is on the back burner. Slower updates are guaranteed and even slower updates for my one-shot turned story.
