And here is part 2!

I will do my best to update daily. Shouldn't be hard lol.

So I have to give some credit to TigrezzTail for the ending of this one. Her review inspired me to do some more fleshing out and make a little change that I am very satisfied with(and I hope you will be too)!

Please enjoy!

The passage of time couldn't be accurately told by Kyuubi. There was no clock where he was and so unless he wanted to constantly count the seconds, he had no idea what time it was.

The only way he could even tell time was still moving was by peeking through his vessel's eyes and seeing him move about. Kyuubi had noticed that in the past however amount of time it has been, Naruto has been moving around a lot. Being a fox, he had a curious nature and did want to know what his vessel was up to. But his demonic nature also urged him not to care unless it affected him in some way.

So he ignored his curiosity and continued to ignore it until the moment Naruto appeared in front of his cell again. It was a shock to the giant beast because the brat looked no older than he had when they first met. Kyuubi figured he would be much bigger by the time they met up again. But he hid his shock with a large malicious grin.

"Back again?"

"Yeah," the little boy mumbled. Naruto looked incredibly nervous unlike before when he looked afraid but curious. He was shuffling from one foot to the other, avoiding looking in Kyuubi's eyes, and wringing his hands behind his back.

"I have something I need to tell you. So please listen to me and don't ignore me this time."

Please? The kid actually said 'please'? To him? He's heard it before but in those situations they were screams and pleads for mercy, not to listen. Either way, Naruto expected to him to listen and he did, because then the blond shouted words he hadn't heard before.

"I'm sorry!"

Kyuubi was stunned into silence. He scarcely had a clue as to why Naruto would utter those words to him. Why Naruto of all people. He didn't have time to try and hide the shock that appeared on his face for Naruto continued. He blushed heavily and pushed his index fingers together in front of him in a typical guilty manner, but he looked Kyuubi in the eye.

"I heard all of that stuff about you from people. But people also lied to me about a lot of stuff before and they did it again. So maybe they were lying about you too?"

Kyuubi doesn't really know what to say to the blond. The ability to speak left him as he tried to figure out what exactly Naruto was trying to do here. Apologies were very foreign to him, and someone expressing regret for hating him was practically unheard of. Unless Naruto was only apologizing for the words he spoke in haste the last time he visited. But what could've brought about this change in attitude?

If Naruto knew about him before, then does this mean that he just learned now about their connection of sorts and how he held Kyuubi's life in his hands? Was he attempting to get on Kyuubi's good side solely for favors to be made later?

The thought wasn't at all pleasant to Kyuubi. He inwardly growled at the thought of being used again. He was about to lash out at the tiny human, ready to make him feel very, very, very glad that these bars stood in-between them when Naruto finally spoke again.

"I get you're mad at me," his tone was heavy with regret and went back down to a mumble. "But I really am sorry. I'm sorry I judged you because of what people said and not because I know you. I know how much that hurts. So I really am sorry."

The strongest of the tailed beasts was stunned yet again. Naruto sounded so eerily genuine. Not about to let another pause of silence pass between them, Naruto continued talking. But this time, he started walking towards Kyuubi's cage while he was at it.

"Everyone says you're a hateful beast but I don't get it. How do they know what you are? You can't do bad things when you're stuck in here and behind those bars right? So why do people keep saying you're bad when you can't do anything bad?"

This little motormouth didn't even give Kyuubi a chance to answer. As his expression got more and more curious, he continued asking more and more questions. Never pausing and never stopping his walk towards the demon.

"I know you attacked the village so long ago, but did you have a reason? Everyone has a reason for doing this. I used to think everyone hated me for no reason. But then I found out about you and I realized they did have a reason; even though it's a bad one. So you must have a reason too for doing what you did right?"

At this point, Naruto finally stopped. He was standing right in front of the bars, craning his neck back to stare up at Kyuubi. As he tilted his head in confusion to ask his final questions, his blue eyes never left his red ones.

"Why did you attack Konoha? Did they do something bad to you first?"

After that there was silence. Because Kyuubi didn't know at all how to react. Here was Naruto, his third vessel who doubles as a stupid, little kid, doing what no human has ever done and trying to know his side of the story. Was he really attempting to get to the root of the problem? And why now? Why did this child suddenly care? He found out people lie? Big whoop ALL humans lie. Mankind has been lying since his time! They've always done that, it's always been done, and Kyuubi could hardly believe that realizing that commonly known fact could cause such a turn around. Even in an impressionable youth like his vessel.

So baring his large fangs he growled menacingly. Not even the spike of fear that Naruto exhibited gave him the usual thrill. He was too angry.

"Insolent brat!" He roared sending Naruto back several feet. "If you can't even understand the most basic thing about your species then what makes you think you can understand what happened to me!"

"Sp-Species?" Naruto stuttered, shivering from where he stood in fear.

"Humans,"Kyuubi practically spat out. He also unconsciously raked his claws against the bars in front of them. Imagine if instead of hunks of metal they were the ones that got him into this mess. Each and every one of those fleshbags, ready to be taken down by his wrath.

Naruto stayed silent but his eyes looked big and watery. Kyuubi smelled the familiar scent of salt water and was prepared for Naruto to cry silently and glare at him again. But he wasn't prepared for Naruto to burst into loud wails.

"WAAAAAAAAH! I hate you! You scared me!" He cried bringing his tiny fists to his eyes. The sobs were loud and murderous on Kyuubi's ears.

"I did something wrong, but I said sorry for it! But you still don't like me! That's why I don't do it! No one ever accepts me and-and-and you're no different!"

Unlike before when he sat in front of his cell, this time Naruto turn around and ran away. Down the dark, sewer-like hallway, he ran until Kyuubi couldn't see him anymore. But he could hear the boy's cries echo down to his chamber. He flattened his ears down in an attempt to drown out the sound but it did him no good. For some reason he could hear the cries still ringing in his head. He closed his eyes and gritted his teeth and attempted to think of something else, but every thought just led back to those sobs.

And that wasn't all. He also heard the words. 'I hate you' appeared a lot along with 'no one accepts me'. But the phrase that appeared the most was 'you're no different'.

He was no different? From the people surrounding his brat? That's preposterous! Kyuubi snarled at the mere thought! They were humans! Ignorant and stupid! And he was a demon! The one suffering from their blindness and pursuit of power! How the hell were they the same!

He wasn't so obsessed with the power that he disregarded someone's mere existence! And his treatment of others-his treatment of Naruto wasn't ideal but it wasn't...It wasn't...

Oh.

And done!

Kyuubi realizes he committed a big 'oops' at the end lol. Next chapter is the last chapter and it will involve another apology and the blossoming of a new friendship between vessel and demon :).

I hope you enjoyed this chapter! Please let me know what you think!
