Chapter 13: Control

Hinata swallowed down the choking warning of tears in her throat as she pushed the young fox down the streets of konoha, not to far from the hokage's tower. Naruto, yet to release her aching and bleeding wrist, looked absolutely innocent and no one even looked toward them. Kyuubi had never had more control. After Naruto had gained the fourth tail, she had been told that, even though Naruto did not know it himself, but kyuubi was forcing itself to lay intentionally dormant, waiting for the small opportune moments to gain the horrific control of the young teen before her, or so the hokage thought. The sudden movement of Naruto's gaze awoke her from her thoughts.

"How can they be so oblivious to his presence...this village is truly nothing but fools...mmmm he knows that we've noticed him, kit," Naruto murmured, more to himself than to anyone. Hinata looked at him, who was he they always talking about? Had those 3 years actually driven them both to the brink of insanity? What kept the akatsuki from pulling out the nine-tails anyway? After all, they were able to remove many of the biju from their mortal containers.

"Kyuubi...please...I'm begging you to let her go...just stop hurting her..." Naruto pleaded, his body numb as he lay on the moist floor of the strange caverns of his inner self.

"Stop asking, I may of gained some respect for you but you are not in charge of me...just because I am sealed inside you doesn't mean I can be controlled...this girl isn't worth anything anyway...you shouldn't care for her."

"Don't say that...she's one of the few people that didn't treat me like dirt...and even now...she's the closest person to me now..."

"She will be your downfall...that is your warning brat.."

Hinata stood in front of the doors of the tower, she looked at them for a moment before pushing them open and bringing the blonde inside, she had never felt worse about doing something than she did now. She was almost in a trance, lost in her thoughts as she brought Naruto up to Tsunade's office, almost praying that the Hokage would be there to assist her. The Hyuuga was horrified at this point, what of Naruto never gained control and will over his body, again?

"What business do you have with the Hokage?" a voice questioned, breaking up her train of thought. Hinata looked up quickly, seeing the usual pair of the hokage's assistants standing infront of the door.

"Ummmm I came to show Tsunade-san Naruto-kun's improvements..." She said quietly to the man. The other nodded,

"Alright, she's just doing paper work right now so you can talk to her, not like she's going to do it anyway," he stated as he knocked on the door.

"Come in," the women's voice called. He opened the door and Hinata carefully wheeled the boy in, who now was hiding a rather mischievous smirk. Tsunade looked up toward them both,

"Oh, Hinata! I haven't been able to see you much as of late, how is Naru----?" She began to ask but her line of speech shut off as Naruto stood up from the chair.

"Your business isn't with her, Hokage, it's with me..." Naruto said with a smirk as he walked toward the desk, releasing the girl's wrist. Tsunade's eyes narrowed, seeing the blood on Hinata's wrist.

"You are the granddaughter of the first am I correct? Tsunade, right?" he questioned with a calm smirk plastered on his face. Tsunade looked utterly startled, Naruto's smirk simply grew.

"Heh, is there something wrong Tsunade-baaaaaacchhhaaann..." Kyuubi said, mimicking Naruto's regular tone.

"Kyuubi..." Tsunade said in an icy tone, "Why are you..."

"Basically overshadowing the whelp's body? Only to talk to you of course, doesn't that make you flattered?"

Tsunade glarred at him,

"What do you want...?" she questioned, her fists curled tightly.

"I came to request tighter security around Naruto and I," he said simply, leaning against her desk.

"And why would you need that? Naruto is completely safe in konoha..." She stated.

"Hmmm I don't know...Maybe it is because this entire pathetic village of your's is completely oblivious to the fact that one of those unorganized member's have been tracking us ever sense we arrived here..." He said, his voice dripping in sarcasm, looking the Hokage directly in the eyes. Tsunade's eyes widened,

"We would of caught him by now...it's probably all in your heads..."

"I doubt that...our senses are keener then your's, or any other human in this village, do not think we are mistaken, it is you who is being a fool..." The Hokage glared dangerously at him,

" I will have the village checked and looked over completely, and I assure you that there will be no Akatsuki in Konoha..." Naruto's eyes flickered red for a moment but he shook his head,

"Persistent child..." he muttered darkly, Tsunade looked at kyuubi thoughtfully, maybe Naruto still had his will. Naruto suddenly stumbled, one hand gripping his head as the other slid from the desk before he collapsed onto the floor. Tsunade's eyes widened noticeably before she swiftly stood up from her desk and ran around it before leaning down next to the boy and checking the average stats, (pulse, temperature, breathing etc.). Hinata kneeled next to him and carefully hugged Naruto, some tears running down her face,

"Please forgive me Hokage-san...I...I didn't know what else to do.." the girl said looked toward Tsunade fear written all over her face.

"I'll never let you hurt her again!" Naruto shouted toward the fox behind his sealed bars. Kyuubi's claws raked and batted across the metal at Naruto's ignorance.

"You fool, there was no other way, you should be thanking me! I probably just saved your sorry life! Think about our predicament for one moment you fool! Do you have any idea what could happen if they extracted me from you! Not only would you die, but they would then have my power! You used to be wise but now you are being completely irrational!" Naruto looked toward the floor, he had to for once agree with the being that was inside him...maybe this was for the better.

Naruto's eyes cracked open, his vision nothing but blurrs for a moment before seeing to familiar faces looking over him.

"Back already, eh?" Tsunade questioned with er usual smug grin, even though it was smaller than usual. Naruto blinked a few times before carefully pushing himself up and rubbing his eyes.
