GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! You annoying reviewers! No I'm joking. But really...
I guess I didn't make it clear that I wasn't going to finish this, but now I am thanks to a load of please-finish-this-story-is-good. I'm not mad. I'm actually very surprised. I wrote this. (I'm sorry that Itachi is so OOC, but its fits the story.)
Some things might be a little confusing.
/This means Kyuubi is thinking./
-This is Naruto thinking.-
Before I had two slashes for Naruto thinking, but it won't work right now for some reason. So I just put a dash on each side.
Not much else I can think of.
I'm too lazy to write all the rating, pairings, and other stuff.
Disclaimer: Too lazy to write. But y'know.

Chapter 6: Kyuubi
Naruto looked up though glazed eyes, "I—"
"Yes, my koi?" Itachi said, his eyes reflected the moon outside.
"I... I can't! I love Sasuke! I will never go with you!" Naruto yelled. He punched Itachi in the jaw, causing him to bite his tongue. Itachi yelled in pain. Naruto ran for his life when Itachi let go of him.
Each foot hitting the ground with a light tap, Naruto dashed through Itachi's place, searching for an exit.
-This is one messed up house.- Were Narutos' thoughts as he turned down a hallway and found only one stairway...
... Going up.
He knew that that probably wasn't the best idea, but anything would have to work in this current situation.
He began to run up the stairs. A yell from behind forced his feet to go faster.
Itachi was near.
Naruto made it up the stairs and turned around the corner another hallway. But he was stopped dead in his tracks.
He had found Itachi's bedroom.
It was a pretty empty place. The walls were all faded red. Most everything in the room was black. Everything was so dusty. It seemed as though no one had been here in many years. There was a small futon in the corner of the room. Next to it was a nightstand with a single picture on it.
Naruto stepped into the room and shut the door slowly. He walked over to the picture. Time felt like it was slowing down as Naruto stepped nearer and nearer to the picture.
The frame of the photo was outstandingly beautiful. It looked hand-made, too.
But, the picture itself... Naruto stared in amazement.
His mouth formed words many times. Eventually, they came out.
"Itachi... smiling?" His eyes opened wide.
In the picture was Itachi. He looked to be about 12 or 13 years old. He had his arm around the shoulders of some boy. The other boy looked older than Itachi, but not much. Naruto examined the boy carefully.
His clothing looked pretty old and tattered. They seemed to be hand-me-downs. The boy himself looked a bit roughed up and tattered himself. His hair was a mess of golden brown locks, tied loosely off to the side. The boys' crimson red eyes stared back at Naruto. Naruto shivered. This boy looked like a happy-go-lucky type, although.... his eyes spoke differently. What gave the boys' identity away the three whisker marks on each side of his face.
At that point, Naruto realized something.
-That is the kyuubi. Even though it's a human boy, I bet he just transformed or something. So this is why... He is the reason...-
Naruto inhaled sharply.
-He's... me.- (A/N: Not really, but c'mon, you know...)
Narutos' entire world came crashing down. He felt like he was falling. The world slowed to a stop and everything just froze, giving Naruto time.
He stood there, picture in hand and head stuffed of memories that were not his. Flashes of the past came to him. Happy moments between Itachi and kyuubi floated around.
Sweet moments...
Funny moments...
Joyous moments...
But the times turned into
Sad moments...
Painful moments...
Heartbreaking moments...
A single tear rolled down Narutos' face.
He was seeing what was lost. What was wanted.
Narutos' stomach began to burn and ache. He felt like he was about to vomit.
Then came a blinding light. Naruto was taken by surprise and fell back, landing hard on his rear.
The light left within seconds.
Naruto soon found himself staring into the eyes of the boy he had seen in the picture. But the boy wasn't solid. He was like a ghost; totally transparent.
"Hello Naruto." The voice spoke. This was kyuubi. Naruto recognized the voice, remembering hearing kyuubi yelling at him.
"How did you...? What the.." Naruto tried to speak.
"Hush. Someone's coming."
Naruto shut up. He turned and watched the door carefully.
Footsteps. Slow footsteps nearing them. Quiet breathing.
The door opened lightly. Itachi stepped in. He didn't walk in. Just stayed there in the doorway.
"Well, well, well. Itachi, my old friend. How are you?" Kyuubi chuckled.
Itachis' face filled with fury. He dashed forward at full speed, ignoring all thoughts that the boy was not quite there. (A/N: You know, being transparent and all. I'll shut up.)
Pulling out a kunai, he yelled in outrage.
He went right through kyuubi. Kyuubi just stood there as Itachi slammed into the wall.
Naruto was seeing a new side of Itachi, when he heard sobbing.
Itachi turned around. Tears pouring down his face, "Why?! Why did you have to leave me?! I've been alone for so long! Why?! WHY?!"
Kyuubi turned around to face the Uchiha. "I did not leave intentionally. Now shut up."
"No! I won't! I loved you! I was always there. I let you cry on my shoulder when you had to. I helped you through all of your needs. And you fuckin' LEFT ME! I just want to know why?" Itachi sat there, crying. He looked like a broken man. Naruto would have guessed he was.
"I loved you, too."
Both Naruto and Itachi's heads shot up in surprise at kyuubi's words. Kyuubi walked – well, floated – towards Itachi. He got down on one knee and leaned close to Itachi.
"I still do, but you need to give up on me and leave Naruto alone. He has Sasuke. You should be happy for him. Please." He paused and leaned forward a bit further.
Naruto could tell they were kissing. He looked away to give them their privacy.
Kyuubi spoke again, "Please, Itachi. For me."
Naruto looked back at the two. Itachi was still crying. His face a light shade of red from the tears. His eyes changed back to their normal black color.
Kyuubi walked away from him and came to Naruto.
"I must go back now, but we need an agreement of some sort."
"Like?" Was all Naruto could say.
"Well, when I need to, let me take control. I know it's your body, but you could at least let me share it. Ok?"
"Yeah." The blinding light appeared again. Naruto felt stronger as the light disappeared.
-So how do I let you take control?-
/Like this./
Naruto closed his eyes for a few seconds. When he opened them back up, they were now red and he wasn't Naruto.
/Don't worry, I know how to get back to Konoha from here./
-Good.-
Itachi still sat there.
Naruto/Kyuubi (A/N: I'll just say Kyuubi, okie?) looked around for a window. He found one. But, it was right next to Itachi.
Kyuubi walked past the poor man and began to leave. He stopped when a cold hand gripped his leg.
"Don't go. Please stay the night. Kyuubi, please."
/Naruto, is that alright?/
-Maybe.-
/Maybe?/
-Like nothing sex related please. I'd like to stay a virgin, thank you.-
/Chuckle Of course. Nothing like that./
-Good. Then go ahead.-
Kyuubi came out from the window and cuddled up to Itachi. He had stopped crying.
"Thank you, kyuubi."
"Yes, but please. We have to leave tomorrow, and you need to be a better person."
"Sure." There was sarcasm in Itachi's voice.
Kyuubi laughed. "Nah, I like you the was you are. I do hate the fact that you killed almost everybody in your family just because you hated me."
"I never hated you," Itachi reassured him.
They kissed again. Kyuubi felt better because this time he could actually feel the kiss.
The moment was going to fit the happy category.
All the while they were kissing, Naruto sat there on the inside thinking:
-Oh goody. I'm getting kissed by Itachi and I can't get out of it. Oh happy day.-

TBC...
There! I wrote it. I plan on one more chapter an that should be it for this story. I think I can wrap everything up.
Reviews:
jinky-kurapica: Thanks. It's good to hear that someone loves this fic. Amazingly enough, I never really cared for this fic, but I like the way it's come out.
theivious racooness: Sorry, but Sasuke won't be fighting anyone. He's still in bad condition. How could he fight someone as strong as Itachi?
Swirls-of-lust: Duh! I liked the prequel better too. I never planned on making this. It just happened and everything got out of hand. Sorry, no ItaNaru action. But close enough, you got Kyuubi (in Narutos' body)/Itachi action. Or is that still ItaNaru? Lol
Bacon: FYI, I'm a dude-ette. And thanks on the compliments.
michelle: Scary. You sound just like my friend Michelle. Is your name by any chance Michelle Burton? Anyway, I like these pairings. Why wouldn't I write about them?
Watermelon Gal: Yeah, I thought that was pretty good too. I would die laughing if I got to see Sasukes' face for real if he saw that.
Well, that's it. One more chapter. I'll probably have it done soon. Definitely before August. Maybe before July. Maybe sometime this week. Who knows?
