Guest: Il y a encore plus de l'histoire.
haruyuki setsuka: Yes I'm so sorry that it took me so long to upload a new chapter. It was based on my own negligence as a writer. Thank you for the compliment to by the way I appreciate that you like my story and think it's different.
inuyasha16451: Thank you. I'm glad it is keeping your interest.
lara5170: Naruto has bright blonde hair that goes all the way down his back he is very muscular not nasty but very strong because of his training. He has three scars on both of his cheeks. He is roughly six foot two. Very tan skin. As for his fox form, he is technically gold but he can change his fur color by manipulating people's sense of sight because he doesn't want anyone to see the golden color. I think there is more of a description in the story but I hope this was good enough for you.
SoraROCK: Yes they are and it is technically because of at least three reasons and only one of them is related to Itachi's job. The other two you will see later on in the story.
Guest: I have to admit that I am a supernatural freak. I love everything about supernatural romance and anything involving it.
TigrezzTail: You get more in this chapter.
I am SO SORRY it took so long but here it goes. I am working a lot more now since I don't go to school anymore. I work as a teacher so imagine how many zooms I'm on already. So I have to put my freewriting on the back burner a lot so bear with me if my stories take a little longer to upload.
Enjoy the chapter.
When Itachi woke up again he was furious like Sasuke thought he would be. He started pacing around because of how mad he was. It was the first time Sasuke has seen Itachi this upset before.
"Where the fuck is, he?" Itachi snapped out but his voice was a bit raspy.
"Calm down brother," Sasuke said handing him some water.
"How can you tell me to calm down? Naruto just bit my throat," Itachi snapped after he drank the water.
"I know why your mad but someone marked you and that is something even worse than getting bit," Sasuke defended and before Itachi could talk again a voice was heard.
"He's right you know," Menma said from the living room.
"Why are you here?" Itachi snapped not in the mood at all.
"I'm just here to tell you a little story," Menma said.
"I'm really not in the mood to hear it," Itachi snapped furious to the point that his eyes flashed a bit red.
"My brother is possessive with whoever or whatever he deems his. You were bit by a demon and he couldn't accept it. The reason he bit you was to find out who bit you to begin with," Menma explained and that made Itachi calm down a little bit.
Itachi couldn't explain why but he liked that Naruto was rather possessive over him.
"It's his own way of protecting you," Menma said as he watched the brothers.
"Why are you even here?" Sasuke asked getting slightly defensive.
"And what do you mean it's his way of protecting me?" Itachi asked.
"I'm here because he isn't here and I want you guys to work with me to get him to trust me again. If another demon has claim over you that means Naruto will have a problem finding you but even for him, I doubt it," Menma said.
"And why should we do that?" Sasuke asked still not trusting the other but he knew what he just said was true.
Sasuke knew first hand that Naruto could find them no matter where they were.
"Because I want his trust again," Menma said. "And I don't want to be in damnation again just because he doesn't trust me up here," Menma said honestly.
"Can you tell us why he doesn't trust you?" Sasuke asked earnestly.
"That's a rather long story," Menma said but the brothers looked determined to hear it. "You should get comfortable then if you want me to tell you that story," Menma said sighing into his hand a bit annoyed.
"Go ahead," Itachi said sitting in his chair as his brother sat in the other chair.
"Well, it started roughly a thousand years ago..." Menma started.
(Flashback)
Naruto and Kurama the oldest sons and only twins in the family of the Kitsune Clan. They were both prodigies in their own right. Naruto was a gold fox the genius and pride of the Kitsune Clan while Kurama was pure red also known as the harbinger of death and calamity. He was truly feared based off that prophecy alone which wasn't fair to him at all.
As years passed the brothers seemed to be favored by different people and also hated by certain people. They were both instructed what they would be doing after they got a certain age and Naruto was elated while Kurama hated the thought. He wasn't sure if it was because Naruto agreed and he didn't want to agree with his twin but he hated the thought of protecting other demons when they were just half breeds and they weren't even rulers.
The third child was a red and black fox a normal color for a fox so it was lucky. His name was Sora he aligned with Kurama and didn't pay much attention to Naruto's way of thinking. He also didn't care to worship half breeds or even protect them.
The fourth of the children came and that happened to be Menma he was orange and red but he was a rare color also. He was an easygoing fox that didn't want to follow anyone he also beat to his own drum. A true youngest child even as his siblings were born. He loved the idea of creating chaos but he understood with some sense why Naruto did what he did. He actually respected Naruto and also tried to get close to him which he was for a while that was until he betrayed Naruto siding with Kurama and everything turned darker in the Fox household.
This went on for about twenty years until their parents had another child which this one became close to Naruto, he catered to it. His name was Asahina. He was black and red like his older brother and had a tinge of orange on him but he wasn't like any of his older brothers. He was sweeter and loved to just play in life. He loved being around Naruto because he loved being in Naruto's tails. He always remained by Naruto's side no matter what it was about or who it was against.
The sixth child was named Nagato and he hated everything that had to do with what Naruto agreed with. He became a beacon of demonic forces to come to him when they wanted to go to the human world. He fought alongside Kurama and still does. He is secretly scared of Naruto even to this day. He was orange and black.
The seventh child was named Karin she was the only girl in the group and she followed Kurama wherever he went. She never disobeyed him a day in her life. She agreed with Naruto to an extent but would never stand against Kurama no matter what it was about. She was red but had black on the tips of her paws, ears, and tail. Her stomach was completely black.
Child number eight was Saki and he wasn't like any of his siblings choosing his own path. He didn't follow Kurama but when everything came down to it, he still stood with him when the fight came about. He was orange and red it was a mixture everywhere on his body.
The ninth child was special he had the same eye color as Naruto but he was red and gold a mixture of both of the twins that were in the family. He was named Asura. He could have been on either side but he loved and agreed with Naruto so much that he backed him up. He grew very close to the humans he protected. He often saved people disregarding his own life.
Two hundred years after they were all born calamity hit, Kurama waged war on Naruto. It was the perfect chance to do it to because they were fighting for the right to take over since their parents stepped down. One needed to rule and, in the end...
(Flashback End)
"Naruto won?" Sasuke asked.
"No actually Kurama did but it's not like Naruto couldn't win because he did but it was like he didn't want to or he just didn't want others to die for stupid reasons or for reasons that didn't mean taking a life," Menma said.
"Why did he let him win?" Itachi asked kind of annoyed from the story.
"He didn't want to lead because he knew no one would sincerely follow him," Menma said turning his head.
"Why?" Sasuke asked.
"Because no one agreed with his beliefs," Menma answered feeling kind of ashamed.
"And you do all of a sudden?" Itachi asked in a snarky tone.
"I don't believe in his beliefs but I want to be with my brother is that a problem?" Menma asked glaring at Itachi.
"Yes, how can you expect us to help you if you don't even agree with his beliefs," Itachi said honestly.
"I don't have to agree to do what he wants," Menma said.
"But that is the problem," Sasuke whispered.
"What do you mean?" Menma asked.
"Naruto doesn't want you around because he knows you don't believe what he believes in and he doesn't want to open up to you just to be disappointed in the end," Sasuke said.
"How do you know that?" Menma asked annoyed.
"How about you ask yourself why you all of a sudden want to be around him?" Sasuke said shocking both of them.
"He's right," Itachi said sitting down again.
"At least ten to fifteen years ago my youngest brother died. I... happened to be close to him and he happened to be really close to Naruto," Menma said slowly.
"Okay?" Itachi asked trying to tell him to keep going.
"My brother died protecting your family," Menma said simply.
"What?" Itachi and Sasuke said at the same time.
"My youngest brother died with your father," Menma said.
"I thought... I heard that there was a fox but I thought it was..." Itachi stumbled.
"Naruto..." Menma finished. "No, my brother didn't... wasn't the one your father talked about. It was Asura," Menma said. "Naruto was on what you would call a sabbatical at that time. One hundred years before the massacre of your clan Naruto was protecting his last Uchiha and they died on his watch. Of course, it was an accident but they died saving him so he stopped completely while our younger brother still kept coming back to protect your clan. What I don't understand is why Naruto came back now after that incident... he came back the moment our brother died and I just want to understand," Menma explained.
"Maybe he did it in honor of your brother," Sasuke said.
"You stick up for him a lot," Menma commented slightly irritated.
"I thought the legendary Kitsune Clan can't die," Itachi said distracting Menma from Sasuke.
"We can die it's just there are ways that people and demons don't know about and it's really rare for a Kitsune demon to die," Menma said.
"You said Naruto was gold?" Sasuke asked suddenly.
"Yeah, why?" Menma asked.
"Why haven't we seen that color on him?" Sasuke asked.
"Probably because he doesn't want you to see him that way," Menma said. "You have heard the legends about a golden Kitsune right?" Menma asked after a second.
They both shook their heads.
"Look it up," Menma said and then disappeared before they could even say anything.
Naruto was back angry and covered in blood.
"Naruto?" Sasuke called out to him softly.
"How dare you bite me then take off!" Itachi snapped despite seeing all of the blood on Naruto.
"I want to do a pact with you right now," Naruto said firmly looking at Itachi ignoring the glare he was given and the anger in the younger man's voice.
"What?" Itachi asked shocked.
"Do a pact with me," Naruto said getting closer to Itachi.
"At least change clothes," Itachi said.
"Come and take a shower Naruto," Sasuke said and gestured toward the bathroom.
"Fine afterward we do the pact?" Naruto asked.
"Tell me what it is first," Itachi said.
"I will tell you once I get back," Naruto said taking off the shirt he had on in front of them before he disappeared again.
Sasuke and Itachi looked at one another.
"You saw all those marks on his body, right?" Sasuke asked.
"They looked like tattoos also," Itachi commented.
They didn't hear anything from the bathroom so they just assumed he left to wherever he was staying before he came back in a yukata right in front of them. His hair was still wet.
"You should have at least dried your hair," Itachi said going to get him a towel.
"It doesn't matter I don't get sick like you humans do," Naruto said shaking his hair out.
"I had pacts with a few of your distant relatives and it keeps us connected. You can get a hold of me any time just by thinking about me. If you're in danger I can sense you from afar. No matter where you are, I will find you without a problem. That's what it means to be in a pact with me but the only thing that worries me is that there is a possibility that it can trigger your demonic side is that okay with you? Or you just don't want to do this with me?" Naruto explained as he sat down crossed-legged on the floor in front of Itachi as Itachi dried his hair with a towel his brother gave him.
"What will happen if I do get my demonic abilities?" Itachi asked.
"Are you asking what will happen to you?" Naruto asked looking up at Itachi.
"Yeah," Itachi said.
"It depends every Uchiha I worked with was slightly different and your brother is handling his own abilities differently also so I don't know," Naruto said.
"Do you already have a pact with me Naruto?" Sasuke asked.
"Yes, the night you drank my blood," Naruto answered.
"Will it hurt?" Itachi asked drawing Naruto's attention back to him.
"It might if I'm being honest with you," Naruto said.
"I'm..." Itachi said.
"There is still a possibility of you doing a pact with your brother if you want to," Naruto said.
"No... I don't want anything to happen to my brother just because he's in a pact or whatever with me," Itachi said quickly shaking his head.
"Okay so do you want to do it with me or not?" Naruto asked.
"I will," Itachi said nodding his head.
"Sasuke please leave the room," Naruto said.
Sasuke wanted to stay and watch but his body and brain screamed for him to leave the room quickly so he did as he was told. He stayed in his room and started doing his own homework. He felt when a shield was enveloped around him and the house. It was warm and comforting. It felt like Naruto was watching over him.
"Come here," Naruto said softly gesturing for Itachi to get by him.
Itachi took a deep breath he was extremely nervous.
"Don't be so nervous. It's more than likely going to hurt me more than it will hurt you," Naruto said not making the situation any better.
Naruto grabbed and put Itachi in his lap but Itachi was facing him and he found it unbearably embarrassing.
"Don't be nervous you have to be fully accepting to me for the pact to work. If you don't accept me then it won't work," Naruto mumbled.
Itachi tried his best to relax as he moved closer to Naruto.
"Put your forehead against mine and say 'I accept you,'" Naruto mumbled softly.
Itachi put his forehead against Naruto's like instructed and said the words softly making a shiver go up his spine then he felt an unbearable pain. Naruto held him closer to him close to the point that their mouths were almost on one another.
"Calm down," Naruto said softly knowing that the only reason why the problem was happening was because Itachi was scared and sort of rejecting it well his demon part was at least. "Itachi," Naruto whispered before he bit his tongue blood slipping onto his lip as he moved forward kissing Itachi.
Itachi was shocked but realized he had a copper taste in his mouth and the burning wasn't there anymore which calmed him a lot. He felt warm and pushed closer to Naruto. Naruto pulled his mouth away but stayed close to Itachi as he felt the other pant on his neck. As Itachi was in a daze Naruto started to mumble in his home tongue an ancient language rarely ever used by anyone other than the Kitsune Clan. As Itachi was coming down from his blood high he realized Naruto's eyes were bright red and a symbol was appearing on his arm along with his own arm.
"It's done," Naruto said as he slowly stood up with Itachi still in his arms.
"What are you doing?" Itachi asked as Naruto started to carry him to the couch.
"Can I come out now?" Sasuke asked.
"You need to sit down and yes you can," Naruto said taking his protection barrier down.
Sasuke came out of his room in time to see Itachi try to stand and Naruto catch him and sit him back down.
"Sit down," Naruto said firmly his eyes flashing red again.
"Why do my legs feel this way?" Itachi asked.
"It's because your body is getting used to our connection so it's leaving your body a bit limp right now," Naruto said.
"Damn Itachi your eyes are different from mine," Sasuke said.
"Really?" Itachi asked.
"I told you everyone in your family is different," Naruto said as he came out of the kitchen with a sandwich and some water.
"Naruto why did you have to give me blood?" Itachi asked.
"Because that is the only way to connect you with me," Naruto said lying.
"You didn't have to do that with Sasuke," Itachi said catching the lie.
"Fine, there are multiple ways that were just the easiest way. You always have to take some of my blood though," Naruto said.
"What are other ways?" Itachi asked.
"I think he means sex," Sasuke said blushing.
"He's right," Naruto said.
"Really? Sex is one," Itachi asked shocked.
"Yes, it's exchanging bodily fluids so of course it's one," Naruto said as he sat in front of Itachi again like he wanted his head rubbed.
"So, are you staying with us in our house?" Itachi asked.
"I have to train you both so yes," Naruto said.
"So, you're going to train us then?" Sasuke asked excitedly.
"Well, I can't let you both loose in the world without any control," Naruto said.
"Thank you, Naruto," Itachi said rubbing his head and Naruto leaned into it feeling some comfort.
The three ended up eating a quiet dinner and watched movies falling asleep in the living room area.
"I don't think we should be apart even if we're going to have to be. I think you two should stay in the same room with me," Naruto said and Sasuke practically ran to his room to get his blankets and pillows.
"What are you playing at?" Itachi asked.
"Nothing I just want to look after both of you," Naruto said as he changed forms.
"Are you sleeping in that form?" Itachi asked.
"Yes," Naruto said.
"Naruto why can't we see you gold?" Sasuke asked as he came back into the room.
"You don't need to," Naruto said.
Naruto didn't say anything else he just curled into Itachi's bed and fell asleep.
