Love is for fools: Woohoo! I'm finally getting a chapter out. My mind sort of blanked on what I should do for this one, that and I got my wrist slammed by a door. Oh, the joy. extreme sarcasm Some stupid idiot opened the door when my left hand was in it, so I didn't have enough time to let go of it and my hand was jerked and my wrist hit the door HARD. The dang ass just said a quick sorry and rushed of laughing with his friends.
Random Thing: You know that saying, "The only stupid question is the one unasked." Well, know this it ISN'T true, I don't know how many IDIOTS asked if getting hit by a SUV hurt. What the hell! Do they think it tickles! What kind person has that much lack of sense that they can't tell when they are asking something ridiculously stupid. And, people that is my rant for the chapter.
?Relevant to the story?
Love is for fools: Okay, I got suggestions and questions about the time when this story should occur. I decided that the first few chapters would be Kyuubi point of views on important past events. Like the confrontation with Mizuki and the Haku era. Well, here it goes.
Kyuubi's POV
I had stolen the secret manuscript that Mizuki had told me about from the Saidame. Not suspecting an alternative motive for helping me, I was too obsessed with helping Naruto recover and be stronger that I failed to notice his intent. As I looked at the scroll I recognized what it was, but still thought nothing of it. I didn't care that I could have found a way to escape. I didn't want to, because he still needed me. The Naruto people saw wasn't completely me nor him, it was a mix, his want of love and my confidence and anger at the villagers.
His hopes of becoming the Hokage, had become mine as well. He was there, yet I supported him, and even if at times we quarreled he had become something resembling family.
Who he respected, I did, who he hated--which wasn't really anyone just dislike--, I hated as well. I was merged with him yet at the time I was a separate soul. Being around Naruto had made me softer, but not human, because I could never torture him like the villagers did, not if that is what being human is about. As I watch Naruto fall asleep at night, I think that maybe this is was the goal of Yondaime. To save my soul, even at so high a price.
Do not mistake me, I still feel contempt at what he did to his son. But, I think the only person I feel true hatred for is for Naruto's mother. I had done my investigating and had learned that she was the one that chose Naruto to be my vessel, because she felt that having a baby to take of would ruin her shinobi life. Let us say I feel absolutely no remorse for a woman that gives up her child to death so she can run wild and cheat on her mate. I'm giddy when I think about the fact that I killed her when I attacked the village and burned the last remnants--a diary--of her existence, besides her child. I would never act as she did as I am constantly proving time and time again.
It is strange that I feel contempt, respect, and thankfulness for a person at the same. Yondaime, who sealed me and partly ruined his son's life, who also manage to defeat me and find a way to give his son a least some way to survive life without parents, and lastly thankfulness for giving me a chance to redeem myself in the form of Naruto. It is a blessing how differently I act now, I understand true heartache, and help to comfort the broken spirits and hearts of the people. Without realization of it, Naruto and I our the saviors of Konoha, brighting and changing the darkness that has been looming and consuming their hearts. I am showing them what a true Angel is, Naruto is all that I could ever hope to have, even in his broken state.
I guess the truth is. . .I'm the one who is needing this and him. . . .he truly is my redemption.
As Naruto trained until he was sore and I had to lend him my energy just so he wouldn't pass out. Iruka appeared surprising both of us, and we exhaustedly and cheerfully greeted him with our normal customary insults. This one being 'nose bleed', I have yet to get over this thinking about a parental figure like him passing out from blood loss and Naruto's ignorant pervertedness.(1)
Naruto told him of our doings for the past hours, but not that I helped, and it's not as though he even KNEW I was there. He just thought everyone had voices that help induce confidence, which in a way they do. But, none such as me. I noticed Iruka-sensei's--he was one of the few I respected along with the Saidame--surprise, but it went unnoticed by Naruto. When he asked about the scroll, I felt something was strange was about to happen.
Naruto told him about Mizuki offering information about the manuscript. It was then that I felt his apprehensiveness, and almost thought of warning Naruto. But that thought was pushed aside when Iruka-sensei shoved us, and he ended up being stuck to the wall of the shack we were practicing by with kunai. We turned to face our attacker.
Love is for fools: Man, that was stressful, and complicated. But, I wanted something to hold you guys of until the next one, when my wrist has healed. Which I promise will be longer than this. Review please, and thank very much all of you for reading this crappy piece of work. I need a beta. hint hint nudge nudge
(1): I don't think Naruto is ready for the birds and bees to start having babies, yet. Sorry, ignore my bad humor.
