Previously, Naruto made the decision to go through with the deal to unseal Kyuubi in exchange for his own survival. He was left unconscious somewhere miles away from Konoha.

Book 1: The Rise of Naruto. Chapter 2: First Lessons of a Hanyou.

Wow, that was strange… I don't remember anything that hap- o shit… Naruto thought but then when he remembered what he had just done, he shot up off the ground and started looking around.

O shit where the hell is she! He thought to himself, not too happy about the fact that he may have just lost Kyuubi. Was he upset about the risk she posed to others, or the possibility he may never see her again? He didn't know, nor did he spend the time to think about it. He had to hurry.

Then, just out of curiosity, he looked around to try and recognize where he was. What he saw surprised him. He was no longer on a road miles away from Konoha. Now, he was sitting on a patch of soft grass, with a blanket over his torso, and surrounded by tall trees. He was in a forest.

Where the hell am I, and how did I get a blanket out? He thought. He remembered back to before he unsealed Natsume. Nope, he never was in the forest, nor did he ever get his blanket out.

He started reaching for a kunai when a voice startled him.

"Oh, Naruto-kun I was beginning to wonder when you would wake up" he heard a deep, sexy feminine voice say. He looked around for the source of the voice, but couldn't find it. His senses were… weird. Nothing felt right. In fact, everything was wrong at the moment. He didn't know where he was, what was wrong with him, where Natsume was… He didn't know anything.

His hand jumped to where his weapons pouch normally was, but he was shocked when it wasn't there.

"No need to worry Naruto-kun. I took your pouch off so you could sleep better. It didn't look comfortable with it on" he heard the voice say.

Then, the person who had been speaking walked through some bushes to his far left. Naruto was shocked when he saw the person.

A beautiful woman, about 5'11 with blood red hair down to her lower back, a thin but muscular body, with perfect curves, and a nice ass and large breasts… Naruto couldn't help but stare at the last two observations. He then realized the situation he was in and looked at the face of the person.

To his surprise, the person had a beautiful, soft face, with identical marks on her cheeks just like his. She also had red eyes that had slits for pupils, and her ears were fox ears, and strangely appeared to be on her head. But, the thing that surprised him the most was the 9 red tails that were flowing through the air behind the woman.

Naruto was astounded by the beauty of the woman in front of him.

"Who are you!" he yelled at her. He was scared, he didn't know what was going on, and he still couldn't control his body quite right.

"Oh Naruto-kun. You don't recognize me?" the woman asked in mock disappointment. Which, Naruto took note, was very sexy.

"Oh shit, Natsume?" he asked in disbelief.

"Hai Naruto-kun it's me. You had me worried you wouldn't know it was me" she told him.

"Well, you just look different than I had expected." He told her in embarrassment.

Just when Natsume was about to comment on what he had just said, Naruto screamed.

"What THE HELL IS THAT" He yelled as he felt something touch him, then turned around to see 10 tails behind him.

"Naruto calm down, it's because of the process of turning into a Hanyou. The results, in my opinion, look hot." She said to him.

Normally, he would have blushed at such a comment, but he was still too worried about his new tails.

"Oh no…" he whispered and then touched the top of his head.

"God damnit!" he yelled as his hands rested on his new fox ears.

Kyuubi decided they might as well get it over with so she snapped her fingers and a mirror appeared.

She handed the mirror to him and he admired his new features.

He looked the same as her except he had golden blond features instead of red, and his hair was wilder and had a red tinge to it. His eyes were golden with the slited pupils too. He was now 6'2 and he noticed his body was muscular.

"I'm never going to be allowed in any village ever again…" he said out loud to no person in particular.

"Naruto, that's not true. Actually, I know some jutsu that will conceal your differences." She said to him.

"That won't make a difference. The Hyuuga clan will see right through any jutsu I try" he said in disappointment.

"Naruto, I already took that into account. It won't matter. There is no human jutsu that can see through the demon arts. Trust me, how do you think a demon like me wondered the earth for so long without causing panic?" she asked him jokingly.

"But more importantly, we need to talk about the effects that your new body will have, not how it will look." She said with a tone of seriousness.

Naruto, not finding any reason to argue, simply nodded his head.

"Just to start, you should know that every single thing about your body, including your senses, are now multiplied by a factor of 5. It's pointless to go over it all as you will find out yourself. Of course though, my senses are still better since you are a Hanyou, but you do have more chakra than me. Oh, that brings me to my next point." She said as she continued to go on and on.

Naruto just sat there like an idiot, and listened.

"The only important thing is, you are now the king of demons. You had at least 2 tails of chakra by yourself, and mixing that with 9 of mine caused you to form a tenth tail. I don't understand how you have my chakra, since I still have it though. Yours is completely independent of mine, yet they are almost identical. But, through the bite mark on your neck, we are now mates, and you are king. At your current level, you are still weak. You may have the chakra, but you do not yet know how to utilize it." She said to him.

"Though, you will eventually grow to be possibly more powerful than Kami, whom I personally know." She said.

"I will leave the rest alone for now. You will discover and learn new things along the way, so I'm not going to bother telling you now. As they say, Live and Learn." She finished with a cheery voice.

Naruto couldn't believe it all. This was ridiculous.

One little bite, and now I'm the most powerful being in the universe? He thought to himself.

That is not true. At the moment, I could beat you with the flick of my pinky finger, and you couldn't even make Kami flinch. You have power but you have to train to access it all. She spoke telepathically to him.

"What the hell? You can hear my thoughts?" he asked her.

"Well, you weren't thinking, you were talking in your mind… There is a slight difference." She said to him.

"Cool!" he yelled.

Natsume was surprised by this. She expected him to be upset. To her pleasant surprise though, he was happy. She couldn't help but smile.

Naruto saw her smiling and froze. He couldn't think or move. He could only get one thought across his mind. She is beautiful…

Natsume, noticing his sudden silence, got a little worried.

"Naruto, what's wrong? Are you feeling ok?" she asked with genuine concern, which made Naruto even happier.

Naruto, hearing her asking him something, snapped out of his state of practically suspended animation, and made the intelligent comment of "What?"

Natsume just shook her head and gave a simple "Nevermind".

"Hey Naruto, I know this may seem a little sudden, but I want to teach you that jutsu that covers up your Hanyou features." Natsume said to him while she was formulating plans.

"Why do I need to know it so soon?" he asked.

"Because, I want to head back to Konoha." She told him honestly.

Naruto, still being a little worried, was distraught by her request.

"Why do you want to go back there?" he asked her suspiciously.

Sensing the suspicion behind his words, she decided that she should reassure him.

"Naruto I swore to not hurt Konoha or anyone else you may find special. I will not go back on my word, but I don't see the point in us staying out in the forest when we could be staying in a house. Your ordeal is over and you can trust me so there is nothing really keeping us here." She explained.

Thinking about her reasoning for a little while brought Naruto to the same conclusion as her.

It was time to head back to Konoha.

"How about we wait a while before heading back though? Maybe like 2 or 3 days. I really don't feel like going back today." Naruto told her.

"I understand, and I think that would be a good idea." Natsume replied.

Suddenly, Naruto's stomach growled, which caught the attention of the two.

"Hungry much?" Natsume asked jokingly.

Naruto just laughed nervously. Truth was, he didn't remember when he last ate. It was bound to catch up to him sooner or later.

"Yeah, I guess so." He said after he stopped laughing.

"That doesn't surprise me at all. You have been asleep for 3 days…" she said to him.

3 days! Holy shit, I'm gonna starve to death! He mentally cried.

"You wouldn't happen to have any food would you?" he asked.

"Of course, I knew you would be hungry, so I went and caught some fish. It was kinda hard since I had to get used to my new form, but I managed." She said as she walked over to a fire he hadn't previously noticed.

Wow, I must have been pretty screwed up to have not noticed a fire… he said to himself in his mind.

"That would be because I just made it with fox fire" Natsume told him.

"First of all, STOP READING MY THOUGHTS! And second, what is fox fire?" he asked her curiously.

"Sorry, and fox fire is an ability that all Kitsune-based demons have, immediately after birth. As you grow older, you gain more control over it, and can make it more powerful."

"So does that mean I can use it?" he asked quickly, as he was full of excitement.

"Honestly, I have no idea. There has never realty been another Hanyou. But, seeing the physical traits that you have adopted would lead me to believe that you have all of our abilities as well." She explained.

"Well how do I use it?" he questioned.

"Just concentrate heavily on fire, and point your finger where you want it. As you get stronger you will be able to do it differently and make it stronger. You won't have to use your hand at all. It will be an afterthought, and it will go where you will it to through your eyes." she went on.

"Wow that sounds great for assassinations." Naruto said randomly.

"Indeed, it is a very useful tool of the Kitsune race." She said proudly.

"Well, can I try?" he asked excitedly.

"Sure, I don't see why not" she answered indifferently.

Well, if a newborn can do it, so can I! he thought to himself, determined to succeed.

He walked over to a shrub, and then stood still. He brought his hand out in front of him, and pointed his index finger at the shrub. Then, he heavily concentrated on fire. The power, burning, its flow, and how it moved. He felt nothing, so he closed his eyes and kept concentrating as much as possible.

Naruto… NarutoNARUTO! He heard the voice of Natsume scream.

Fearing something was wrong, he opened his eyes, only to be met with what seemed like a fountain of flame erupting from his finger tip, igniting all of the trees in the area on fire.

Quickly losing all concentration, and moving his hand, the flames stopped coming out of his finger, but the damage had already been done. The shrub had been erased from existence and the fire raged on around them.

"Natsume! Do something!" he yelled over at the beautiful woman.

"Why me?" she asked him incredulously.

"Because I don't know any Suiton Jutsu!" he yelled back.

"Oh, right." She said to no one in particular.

"Ok then" she said as she took a deep breath.

She performed 1 hand sign and then shouted Suiton: Suiryūdan no Jutsu.

After she said this, a huge dragon of water materialized in the air behind her, and with a circular motion, covered all of the fire in the area, effectively putting it all out.

Naruto just stared in amazement. The clouds of steam billowing off of the forest around them.

"I heard about that jutsu, but I thought that only Tobirama Senju could do it with one hand sign" Naruto said in amazement.

"Naruto, no mortal can overpower me. I'm the most powerful being in the world." She said to him.

He realized that he shouldn't be surprised. No human could stand up to her, not even his father. His father had won because he called on the Shinigami.

"Oh, I guess that does make sense." He said.

Suddenly, Natsume seemed alarmed, and without warning, ran over to the fire.

"Please don't be burned!" she seemed to pray aloud.

When she got over to the fire she had made earlier, Naruto saw her bend over, and then stand back up with something brown in her hands.

"Hey, what's that?" he called over to her as he began to walk in the direction of the fire.

"This, Naruto, is the fish I caught. It's a little crispy but it should still taste good" she told him even though she was a little embarrassed by her forgetfulness.

"Oh thanks Natsume-chan" he said as he took the fish when she held it out towards him.

Wow, that's a big fish He thought to himself as he hefted the 10 pound fish up, and started eating.

"MMmm this tastes great! Thanks Natsume-chan!" he said appreciatively.

Natsume giggled "My pleasure Naruto-kun".

So, for the next couple of minutes, they sat around the fire, Naruto eating, and Natsume just staring into the fire.

"Oh Naruto, I almost forgot!" she said loudly. "I still need to show you the jutsu to cover your fox features!"

Naruto, who was just finishing his fish, looked up interested.

"Oh yeah, that's cool! I can't wait to learn a special jutsu!" he cheered. "But just a quick question" He said.

"Ok, and what would that be?" she asked as she started to stand up.

"How does that fire burn when there is no wood?" he asked while looking into the fire that seemed to just burn on and on.

"Well, it's linked to my chakra, and with the control I have developed, I can maintain it with just little bursts of chakra." She responded.

"Oh cool" he said dumbly.

"Anyway, the jutsu I am going to show you is a demon art. Or, otherwise known as an Onipou jutsu." She said as she looked to make sure Naruto was paying attention.

"Normally, it would be impossible for a human to learn any Onipou, but since you are a Hanyou, you can. Also, Onipou are not the easiest to learn, but the one I will show you should be easy for you. Hopefully…" she said as if she was a professor.

"Ok, so what is the name of the one you're going to teach me?" he asked quickly.

This annoyed Natsume a little as she was about to say the answer already before he had interrupted her.

Noticing the annoyed look on her face, she knew Naruto got the message when he shut up quickly and sat very still.

She was standing and talking to him while he sat on the ground and listened.

"I am gong to teach you a Jutsu known as Onipou: Badi Genkaku no Jutsu." She told him.

"Onipou?" Naruto said in a questioning way.

"Hai, Onipou is demon art. All together the jutsu is Demon Art: Body Illusion Jutsu." She explained.

It seemed to work because he nodded like he knew what she was talking about.

"You have most likely never heard of it before since it is one of the types of demon jutsu, and I don't know any humans that really know about it." She told him.

Suddenly, Natsume's eyes widened. I can't believe I forgot to tell him. She thought to herself.

"Naruto before I show you this jutsu, there is something that I forgot to tell you…

"Wow you're forgetting a lot of things lately"."

"Shut up! Anyway, I didn't mention your immortality. The most important thing is you will never physically mature past an age of around 23. Also, you won't die of old age, you can't be killed by poison, and you have the same regenerative capabilities you had when I was still in you." She explained without ever taking a breath.

Naruto couldn't believe what he was hearing. Him immortal? That was amazing!

"That's awesome!" he said.

Natsume was happy that he liked the idea of being immortal. But then again, who wouldn't like to be immortal?

"Well, back to the jutsu." She said.

Naruto nodded in acknowledgment, signaling to her that he was ready to learn.

"Ok, so the first thing you should know about this jutsu is that it requires only one hand sign. The hand sign you need to perform is tiger. Then, just say the name of the jutsu, and you will take on your previous form. As you get better and better at it, you will not have to say the name, and at the master level, you won't have to make the hand sign." She told him as she demonstrated the process.

"Also, one of the things that makes this jutsu superior to others of its kind, is that not only can nothing see through it except for demons, but also when you perform it, it does not make noise, or create a cloud of smoke. All that happens is your body glows red for a split second." She said while performing the jutsu, and Naruto got to see what she meant by a red glow.

She now looked like a normal woman. No signs of being a demon were visible. She didn't even have whisker marks anymore.

"Of course, you can use this to look like anyone, and also, it only uses the slightest amount of chakra to maintain the illusion, so you don't have to worry about exhaustion in fights while around others." She explained.

Naruto, who was busy taking in all of the information, was astounded. I can't believe this, this is an amazing jutsu!

"Can you teach me any other Onipou?" he asked curiously.

"Not now, you are no where near ready Naruto-kun. Soon enough though, the time will come, but first there are other things we must attend." She said smoothly.

Always so eager to learn… she thought to herself, having more control over her telepathic abilities, so she didn't have to worry about him hearing her thoughts.

Naruto, who obviously looked a little upset, quickly got back to normal.

They had both been so involved in the conversation that neither had noticed the sun had begun to set.

I'm still a little tired. Must not have fully recovered yet. He thought to himself.

"Hey, Natsume-chan" he called over to the demoness.

"Hai?" she asked, directing her attention towards the blond man. He had 2 years before he reached the point where his body would stop maturing. 2 years of growth… she thought but then couldn't believe that thought crossed her mind.

What the hell is wrong with me? She questioned herself.

Looking up and seeing Naruto's confused look, she realized he noticed that something was bothering her.

"Something wrong?" he asked kindly.

"No no, I'm fine. Just thinking about your training." She lied.

"Well ok, if you say so." He said, not really liking the answer, but deciding he didn't want to bother her anymore.

He walked over to a grassy area, and lay down with his blanket that had been left there earlier.

"I'm going to go wash up in the waterfall over in that direction" she said to his prone form, while waiting until she saw him look over to see her point her finger to the East.

"Ok, good night Sume-chan" he called out to her as she walked away.

Upon hearing the nick-name, she blushed, but he couldn't see it since he was facing her back.

"Night" she commented simply.

He was thinking too loud again, and she heard his thoughts as she was walking.

Damn she has a nice - she knew what he was about to say, and turned around, crossing her arms over her large D cup breasts.

Deciding she would have some fun with him, she got as serious as she could, and questioned through her thoughts, A nice what?.

When he heard this, he realized she knew exactly what he had been thinking, and his face turned bright red. He rolled over to face in the other direction.

"Gomen!" he yelled at her, but still didn't look in her direction.

I guess I could forgive you… I do the same thing to you all the time she said to him telepathically.

She was just kidding about this, and Naruto knew it as well, and so he didn't say anything when she finally turned away, and kept walking, eventually disappearing from sight.

I'm gonna miss being able to hear his thoughts she said to herself.

When she made the connection between them, she could tell that it would remain wide open for some time. That meant that they would be able to hear just about any of each others thoughts. She knew that was bad, but she decided to do it anyway. Luckily for her, she had been able to strengthen her side of the connection almost instantly, so her thoughts had been safe from him. For some reason, she hadn't heard anything from him until he woke back up from the transformation. That was the first time she heard his thoughts. It should have happened before then, but she had no explanation as to why it hadn't. The good thing was, for him at least, his side of the connection was going to become stable within the hour, which would make it so that only the thoughts that on person wanted the other to hear would go between them. She wouldn't hear any more of his thoughts except for the ones he actually wanted her to. This would allow for more effective communication, and less embarrassing situations.

She decided she would tell him the next morning. She didn't need him worrying about every little thought that crossed his mind. Even she knew that kind of invasion of privacy would lead to some anger.

The sun had finally gone down, and Natsume was just now getting ready to get into the water next to the waterfall. To her pleasant surprise, it turned out that the waterfall was actually fed by a hot spring, so all of the water was warm and soothing.

It was so peaceful. She looked around. Everywhere she looked there was either water, or the lush green forest. She looked up, and saw the breathtaking view of the night sky. She could see every single star in the sky. The moon was a full moon as well.

Deciding she wanted to get in the water, she slowly took off all of her clothes, and then stepped one foot at a time into the water.

It felt so nice on her pale white skin. She eventually got to the point where the water was just covering her breasts, and she closed her eyes to enjoy the soothing feeling of the warm water.

The only noise to be heard around her was the occasional animal, and the chirping of the crickets.

She slowly moved her tails through the water, enjoying the sensations from her sensitive tails. She felt like she was in heaven.

Ahhh, this is so nice she thought to herself.

She slowly made her way to the waterfall, where the water was shallower, and sat between the waterfall and the rock wall behind it, so she was in a little area that was sealed of from the rest of the world by a wall of water.

She took note that it was like a sauna in that area because the steam had nowhere to go once it was in there. She took a seat on a warm rock, and enjoyed a feeling she hadn't felt in a long time. Complete and total relaxation… Not to mention in her human form. She never knew it was so nice.

There were not many places where a demon in full form could relax like this one. There simply were no waterfalls quite that big. She only knew of a few, and those few were not in the human world.

Sitting there, she began to contemplate the appearance of her human form. She looked down at her large breasts, and gave them a squeeze with her hands.

"Uhhhh" she couldn't help but moan from a sensation she had not felt in a long time.

She was very pleased with the way she looked. She knew Naruto was too, if his thoughts had been any indication. With that thought, she frowned. The time had already passed where his mind would have strengthened to prevent unwanted incursion upon his thoughts.

Deciding not to worry about anything, she kept massaging her breasts. She couldn't help it, it felt so good. It had been a long time since she last had a sexual encounter of any kind. She had a one night stand about 10 years before she was imprisoned in Naruto, and after that, she had not had any satisfaction. Even a girl needed some lovin every now and then too. So in her guess, it had been in excess of around 30 years.

As she was using her hands to gently caress her breasts, and pinch her pink nipples, her left hand started moving downwards. It eventually found its destination. A place where she was super-sensitive.

She never could explain why, but the area around her vagina had always been spotless. She never had any hair except for a little patch located at the top and trailed up a little. That hair was red, but other than that, she was what humans would call 'shaven'.

Her index finger trailed around the outside of her opening. Than, without a second thought, she pushed her finger into her folds. With that, came an unexpected reaction…

She almost screamed. To stop that from happening, she bit down on her bottom lip as hard as she could, which drew some blood. She didn't care though. She felt so good. Not to mention the fact that the cut would disappear almost immediately after she removed her teeth due to her healing capabilities.

Ohhhhhhh yeah….. she moaned as she continued to move her finger in and out of her pulsing vagina, as she writhed in pleasure.

(Back with Naruto)

Naruto awoke with a start, sitting upright in a flash.

He could have sworn he heard something. He looked around and noticed that the fire was still going. But, he also noticed how dark it was, and that Natsume wasn't back yet. He could tell he had been asleep for at least 2 hours.

Deciding to go look for her, he removed his blanket from his waist, stood up, and looked around again. He thought back to when she had pointed in the direction she was going. He remembered she had said she was going to the east, but it was dark, and he didn't feel like thinking about it too much, so he just walked in the direction she had indicated.

It wasn't long before he could hear the waterfall. It was a calming sound, as he listened to it while walking.

But then he heard something that definitely wasn't the waterfall.

From up ahead, in the direction of the waterfall he heard a voice moan, "Ohhhhhhh yeah….."

Startled by the sound, and thinking something was wrong, he ran up and burst through the tree line… Only to jump back into cover as though his life depended on it. Although, in the current situation, it probably did. If the figure he saw behind the cover of the waterfall was who he thought it was, and she was doing what he thought she was, and she found out that he had seen her doing it, he had no doubt in his mind that she would probably kill him.

For, beyond the cover of the waterfall, the lone figure of Natsume was perched on a rock, with no clothes on, her legs spread wide, her hands moving over her body, and apparently she was currently having an orgasm. Her whole body had suddenly stiffened, her eyes rolled back into her head, and she arched her back, and Naruto watched as her juices flowed out from between her legs. He could tell she was using every ounce of her strength to keep from screaming, as indicated by the steady dripping of blood off of her chin.

He couldn't help but stare. She was so beautiful, and he was so attracted to her. He had never seen a woman like her before. She was so beautiful and perfect. Her feminine, but muscular body glistening in the moonlight with sweat and steam, her blood red hair matted from water and sweat, her tails extended straight up in the air behind her… It was the most perfect ting he had ever seen.

He suddenly felt an uncomfortable tightness in his pants, and looked down to realize he had a hard-on and his pants were straining to hold it back.

"Damnit" he muttered to himself.

He knew now that he would never get to sleep unless he took care of it.

So, doing the most logical thing he could think of, he undid the button of his pants, slid them down around his ankles, and started to masturbate. His hand moved up and down his 8 inch tool as he pleasured himself, while watching Natsume pleasure herself.

He noticed that she had started again, and was pleasantly surprised. After about half an hour, strangely enough, they both climaxed at the same time. He shot his seed all over the ground, and she covered the rock with her juices.

Deciding he was satisfied, Naruto went to leave, but couldn't. He was so transfixed on her, her beautiful body, he couldn't move.

(Off in the distance)

A dark red swirling vortex appeared in the middle of the air, and suddenly a lone figure dropped out of it. As the figure dropped, it stepped on a bush, causing a loud crunching sound. With that, the figure disappeared. The red portal closing soundlessly behind it.

The only noticeable feature that was visible was the figure had two ears on the top of its head, and it also had three tails behind it.

(Back with Naruto)

All of a sudden, a loud crunching noise was heard. He saw that Natsume had noticed, as she jumped up, and raced over to her clean set of clothes she had brought, but he had never seen.

That was the last thing he had seen because he had sprinted his ass back to his blankets last known location without a second thought.

I don't know what the fuck that was, but if she catches me, I'm dead! He thought to himself as adrenaline, and his new Hanyou body propelled him at speeds no human could ever even think possible. He had covered a ten minute walk in 30 seconds.

He lay down as fast as he could, taking note that he wasn't even winded, or sweating after his super run. He threw his blanket over himself, and closed his eyes.

A few seconds later, he sensed Natsume silently enter the area. She was so quiet he only barely caught her chakra signature. He felt her eyes on himself, and he sat as still as possible, making sure to breathe deeply as though her were asleep.

After a few seconds, Natsume, seemingly satisfied, lay down, and wrapped her tails around herself.

Naruto took a deep breathe, knowing that he had just dodged a bullet. He risked a glance over at her, and noticed she was wearing a very sexy and revealing plain white tank top with no bra, and some short shorts that looked really soft.

Where the hell she gets this stuff, I will never know… he thought to himself before he actually let sleep overtake him.

Neither of them could sense the new presence, nor could they feel the eyes that were watching them.

A shady figure in a nearby tree murmured into a little microphone "Sir, I have found her."
