Hey everyone! I've got another chapter up for you with a glimpse into Tori's past. Hope you like!!

ooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooo

Naruto slowly opened his eyes waiting for intense beams of light from the sun to blind him, but when they didn't he looked around and remembered that he was still a captive in the small and poor demon county. He looked over to his left to see his cellmate Tori already up and deep in thought. Lucky she wasn't as pale as when they had tried to fall asleep hours before.

"Morning." He yawned with a small grin, but she only glanced at him and gave him a small nod. "Are you feeling any better?" He asked, but again all he got was a glance and a nod. A few awkward minutes passed and Naruto started to fidget in his shackles. He thought back to the day before when the 2 men had first brought Tori to the cell and remembered something a little odd.

"Hey Tori?" he said. Her eyes shifted from the ground to his face as to give him her attention. "Yesterday when they first brought you here they said something about you refusing a deal. Not that it's any of my business or anything, but I was just kind of curious about what they had meant."

Tori sighed, which seemed to be something she did a lot, and thought for a moment. "Unlike you I grew up in Demon Country. I's never been a very peaceful place though. All of the adults were cruel and heartless and both myself and the others in my group of four just kind of wandered around like stray dogs. Because the others were all abandoned before the really could remember much they were among the few that dint know my secret, but even so they never acted like it bothered them when mothers would pull their kids away when we walked by or when everyone in our little town looked at us as if we had committed murder. They just figured that that was life." She said looking him in the eyes, it was the first time they had had any meaning in them. So of course it took them by surprise when a couple of bounty hunters showed up saying that someone was offering 10,000 for me to be captured alive."

Flashback

A group of kids no older than 10 were walking down a back alley. The leader, young Tori, was in the front kicking a can as she went. She stopped suddenly and watched as 2 shadowy figures dropped down from the roofs above. They were both men, and ninja at that, who wore baggy clothing and slashed Grass headbands.

"What do you want?" she said grabbing a kunai out of her pouch and motioning the others behind her.

"What we want is you demon." He said with a smirk. Tori eyed him quizzically.

"Hey! Tori's not a demon you monster!" yelled one of the group members from behind her. She shot him a menacing look and he quickly shut his mouth. The two men burst out laughing.

"So you haven't told them yet?!" One of them chuckled.

"Told us what Tori?" one of her group asked.

"Ya, what are they talking about?" added another.

Tori looked at the ground clenching her teeth. Her bangs fell in her face creating a shadow that covered her eyes.

"That she is Gabi no houkou!" they said getting more serious. "And that there is a very generous bounty on her head, too."

The small group stepped back away from Tori who still stood in the same position. She looked up. Her usually crystal blue eyes were now a deep violet and her nails and K-9's grew to sharp elongated points. A storm of blue chakra surrounded her and a single tail formed behind her. She let out a earsplitting howl and then blackness.

When she finally snapped out of it she stood in the center of the alley. The two shinobi were hiding behind two dumpsters and her friends sat huddling together, cut and bruised, and covered in blood. She took a step toward them and they all flinched and moved back terrified. She looked away from them and said to the two ninja,

"I will go without a fight. Just take me somewhere where I can't hurt anyone else."

End flashback

By the time Tori was finished with her story she voice was shaky and her were full of tears. Naruto looked down at the ground in front of him, he may not have gotten his answer but he didn't want to push her any farther. He figured she would tell him when she was ready.

While they had been deep in thought they hadn't heard the four guards walking up. They entered the cell and unhooked both Tori and Naruto from the wall but leaving the cuffs around their hands and necks on. They roughly grabbed the two by their hair and dragged them out to the hallway and lifting them onto their feet. Naruto wanted to rub his head after that but when one of the guards yelled walk as he brought a winded leather rope across their backs both of them realized that they had other things to worry about. As they stood still in shock and pain, the guard yelled walk again and brought the whip down across their shoulder blades. Naruto jumped and Tori winced but they moved forward as the man kept bringing the whip down across their backs at random intervolves. They lead them to a small room and pushed them inside. They stumbled to the ground as the whip then came across the backs of their knees with a hiss. The door was then slammed shut and locked. Naruto struggled into a sitting position and shivered. It had to be 0 degrees in the room and it was made entirely out of metal. He watched as Tori also struggled and finally managed to sit next to him. There was a weird heat radiating off of her.

"Hey Tori, why is the air around you so warm." He asked kind of enjoying it. Tori's eyes lit up in panic and she slowly started muttering the words "oh crap" under her breath.

"What's wrong?" he asked insanely confused. She looked at him and he could just start to make out a faint purple hue in her eyes.

"Its Gabi no Houkou's first tail, Fire."

ooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooo

For all of you who don't know or skipped ahead Gabi the five tailed wolf demon has obviously five tails each controlling one element (Fire, Ice, Earth, Air, and Lightning).
