The Fox's Sword
Chapter 3: The Council Meeting
Disclaimer: I own nothing of Naruto or of Harry Potter. I really wished that I did, but sadly I do not. I just to say a big huge 'Thank You' to all of those who wrote a review, favored, and followed this or any of my other stories. It means a lot to us authors to have your support. I also want to thank 'sakurademonalchemist' for being my BETA.
AN: The Wizardry World will not return in this fic as Lana has been Master for at least a hundred years. Another thing, Master is going to be a mother/mentor figure to Master.

Last Time…
Samehada felt something leaning against her and saw that it was Naruto who was fast asleep. Apparently, everything that had happened caught up with him and now he was asleep. Looking back at the demon, she asked, "How about we work out that deal, now?"
*VERY WELL!* What they did not know or realize that both the real and the fake Madara Uchiha was already dead.
(Scene Break)
Present Time…
Samehada pulled herself out of Naruto's mindscape after working out a deal that would benefit both parties with Kyuubi or now known as Kurama. She had changed Naruto's mindscape from the sewers to a huge beautiful field with flowers, trees, and a clear crystal blue lake and Samehada did all of this by borrowing some of Naruto's untamed Chakra. By the time that she had finished with the changes, Samehada was mentally exhausted.
Samehada watched Naruto as he slept peacefully. Samehada was very grateful that she still had the ability to sleep, even though she did not need to sleep or get that tired. But she enjoys the sense of peace and how all of the stress and worries just wash away when one sleeps.
'Tomorrow is Sunday, so there should be no school for him to attend, so I can test Naruto tomorrow to see where I need to start his training,' Samehada thought to herself as she studied the calendar that was hanging on the wall. The calendar had a ramen theme going on. Thankfully, Naruto had taken to crossing off the days that passed, if he didn't, Samehada would not what day it was.
'Also tomorrow, I will have Naruto sign the Summoning Contract for the sharks and then teach him tree walking and water walking to help him control his Chakra, since he has no control over his Chakra,' Samehada thought as she began to plan how she was going to train Naruto. There was a great thing to being stuck inside a sword; you will learn a lot of things over time.
What very few people know about Samehada was that she is linked to the Summoning Contract for the sharks and if she rejects you as her Master, like she did with Kisame, that person will never be able to summon another shark again as the contract will be cancelled.

In the Hokage Tower…
The Third Hokage was facing the Shinobi Council and the Elders with a serious expression on his face. Strangely, the Civilian Council was absent, but no one was complaining as the Civilian Council would stick their fat ugly noses where it did not belong. All that the Civilian Council would do is complain how they were not getting enough money, how the last Uchiha, Sasuke deserves more Justus, and how they should kill Naruto Uzumaki.
"Now that everyone is present, this meeting can begin," Sarutobi said in a loud and clear voice. "This evening, the Chakra of Kyuubi was felt. Fearing that the seal was somehow breaking or weakening, several ANBUs and myself quickly arrived at the scene to discovered that a mob of civilians and low ranking Shinobis running away from an alleyway. They were captured and they are enjoying the company of Ibiki as we speak. When we got there, we found that the seal was not breaking or weakening at all, instead we found that the demon Chakra was being drawn out by the Samehada…"
"Excuse me for my interruption, Hokage –sama," Shikaku Nara, the Head of the Nara Clan, spoke up. Usually Shikaku slept through these sorts of meetings, but this turned out to be very interesting and not too troublesome to stay awake for. "But did you say that the Samehada, one of the seven swords of Kiri, and the most powerful sword was drawing on the Kyuubi's Chakra? That Samehada?"
"Yes Shikaku, that Samehada," Sarutobi confirmed. He could not wait to see their expressions when he tells them the next piece of news. He was a genius when he had ordered a couple of the ANBUs to secretly tape this meeting. This way, he can watch this meeting over and over again, whenever he is in need of a good laugh and cheering up.
Sarutobi continued on, "Not only that happened tonight, but apparently the Samehada had swallowed Naruto in order to heal his injures and not only it did that, but apparently Samehada had claimed Naruto as her next Master."
It was so quiet that you could probably hear a pin or something drop from a hundred feet and still hear it clearly. The council was in shock as they did not expect that to happen. It was very well known that the Samehada was very picky with who wields it. There were rumors floating around that the Samehada was alive in its own way and one of the other rumors were that was going around was that the Samehada's creator had somehow sealed a soul into that sword when he created the Samehada. But those were just rumors or so what they believed to be rumors. But to think that the strongest weapon in existence was going to reside here in Konoha and be wield by a future Konoha Shinobi, it was too unreal for them to believe. And the best part is that the Civilian Council can not demand that the Samehada be handed over to the spoiled little brat, Sasuke Uchiha.
"THAT LUCKY LITTLE BASTARD!" Hiashi Hyuga, the Head of the Hyuga Clan, exclaimed, clearly remembering the time that he had lost a bet with a five year old Naruto. Hiashi's eyes widened as he realized that he had just said that out loud. Looking around at his fellow Clan Heads, who were staring at him in shock. He opened his mouth to apologize for his outburst when he found himself unable to move a muscle.
"Capture success," Shikaku Nara said lazily as his shadow connected to Hiashi's feet. "The real Hiashi Hyuga would not allow his emotions to show or an outburst to happen, everyone knows that. Troublesome spy. Its your turn, Inoichi."
"Thanks, Shikaku," Inoichi Yamanaka, the Head of the Yamanaka Clan thanked his friend and teammate, before performing the necessary hand signs that allowed him to look inside other people's minds. "Now, lets see who you really are and who you are working for."
As this was happening, Sarutobi his face with the Kage's hat as he was struggling to keep a straight face and not to burst out laughing. That struggle became even harder to fight when Inoichi cancelled his mind walking jutsu with a sheepish look on his face as he announced to everyone that Hiashi Hyuga was indeed Hiashi Hyuga and not a spy. The two friends began apologizing over and over again to Hiashi for the actions.
"Hokage –sama," Shibi Aburame, the Head of the Aburame Clan spoke up in his usual monotone voice. "You referred that the Samehada was female?"
"What's wrong with being a female!?" Tsume Inuzuka, the Head of the Inuzuka Clan yelled angrily, ready to rip Shibi apart with her claws if his next answer was wrong. One will think, since Tsume and Shibi used to be on the same as genins along with Hiashi, one will think that Tsume would know by now that Shibi never ever make any type of comment about females being weaker than their male counterparts.
Shibi pushed his dark shades back up on his nose as his face showed no emotion as usual. He replied calmly, "Nothing is wrong with being female. I just did not know that the Samehada was female as her gender was not known in the past."
Sarutobi cleared his throat, drawing the attention back to himself and hopefully stopping any fights that would probably break out if Tsume was involved. Sarutobi gave a short summary, "Samehada was the one who told Naruto that she is female and in turn, Naruto told me."
Whispers broke out among the Clan Heads and the Elders, but they were cut off as the Third Hokage continued to speak, "The next thing that needs to be announced, the Civilian Council still has not showed up for another meeting yet again. If they don't show up in the next two meetings, the Civilian Council will be disband for good."
Wisely, no one pointed out that the Hokage pulled a Kakashi and written down that the meeting will take place in five hours from the present time in the summons that were sent out.
Nobody knew that Danzo was planning how to help Naruto to become the strong Shinobi like his parents, without letting anyone know about his plans.

In Naruto's apartment the next morning…
It was after breakfast the next morning and Samehada was mentally frowning at what her new Master ate. Ramen, the food of the gods according to Naruto was not a breakfast food or healthy to eat. That was another thing that she needed to work on and also she had to see if Naruto can perform the Henge. So that way, he can buy the necessary things without being overcharged or was not rotten.
"Naruto –sama, today, we are going to find a training ground that we can use without being interrupted and I can train you in peace," Samehada said, catching Naruto's attention with the word 'training'. Samehada had to laugh at the little celebration and dance that Naruto was doing as in his own words, 'he's going to become an awesome Shinobi thanks to his new awesome sensei, Same –chan.
AN: I hope that you all like this chapter. Sorry about not updating anything for this last month. I have no excuses. But I have decided to make Danzo a good guy in this fic. Please review and tell me what you all think of it. Have a nice day, everyone.
