Second Unmei: What happened to my body!?

The next day Naruto woke up with the sorest body he every had. For a second he wondered what could have caused it but then he remembered the events of the previous day; Learning all those new jutsu, beating Mizuki, officially becoming a ninja. Yep, yesterday was a great day. Okay now that he had the sore body explained he had to deal with the headache that came. He remembered his strange dream that he woke up from during the night.

Start Flashback

Naruto stood in a long hall that was filled ankle deep in water. The hall had many branches and it had blue, red, and golden pipes running along the roof. Naruto decided that he would follow the pipes since the longer he followed them the bigger they seemed to get. He followed them until they stop in giant room that had two giants barred gates. One was labeled Kyūbi no Kitsune and the other was Umu no Akuma. He heard a loud rattling come from the Umu cage. He walked up to it and noticed it looked like it would give way. Under closer inspection he saw some shapeless form hitting the door and the next second they flew open. For a second nothing happened but then suddenly the formless shape shot out of the cage straight for Naruto. Naruto frantically tried to run but he wasn't fast enough and the form shot straight through his stomach. As he fell the shape began to engulf him and then the other gate shot open and attack Naruto. The next second he was awake and gasping for air. He got up and went to his room to sleep.

End flashback.

'That was strange.' Naruto thought to himself as he went his kitchen. As he went to the kitchen he noticed that he was shorter, a lot shorter. He couldn't even see his counter. He then ran to his bathroom and made his way to his mirror. What he saw was something totally unexpected. In the mirror where he should have stood was a small two tailed kit. 'Oh, shit. What happened to my body!?' Naruto thought as he let out desperate howl. He then shot out of his apartment through his balcony toward his school. He hoped withal his heart that Iruka would know what happened. He even ignored all the deadly glares he received while traveling through town. If he had saw them he would have ran even faster.

At the academy all the other graduates were there and waiting for Iruka to explain their teams. Iruka himself was waiting for Naruto to show up so he could continue. After a while he couldn't ignore the irritated glares coming from most of the students, plus he figured the poor boy was still tired from yesterday. "Okay class today I'm going to assign you to your teams."

"What new arrangement?" An impatient boy yelled to get the sidetracked Iruka attention.

"I'm glad you asked." Iruka stated merrily. "For this year's class we are going to do a little experiment with the teams. As you know teams usually consisted of three people and a team instructor. This year will be different. This year we will have two genin and one instructor." When Iruka said this some people got excited and others weren't so. "Now, before you get too rowdy let me explain. In this method we are hoping to create the strongest ninja then ever before. So from to day on you will be spending all your time with your partner. Eating, training, relaxing, sleeping, and bathing. Whatever it is you will be with your partner. In essence you will be one." Iruka's comment about sleeping and bathing got a few laughs, or blushes. There was a shy girl in the back of class who face was crimson red. She was in love with our hero, Naruto, and when she thought of being 'one' with the other lets just say that she wasn't having the most appropriate thoughts. "Okay, well maybe not the last two, well hopefully not." Iruka chuckled.

Naruto had arrived in the class right when Iruka began his introduction on the new system. He had listened to the whole intro and then turned on his selective listening and thoroughly ignored the rest of Iruka's speech. He only listened when heard his name. "Okay Team Gold will consist of Uzumaki Naruto…" a multitude of gasps could be heard from the other genin, everyone had thought he failed. With that Naruto wore a satisfied smirk. "… and Hyūga Hinata." The shy girl in the back of the class let out a small 'eep' letting everyone know who she was. The girl had just had one of her dreams fulfilled and could hardly believe it. "Next will be Team Black consisting of Uchica Sasuke and Haruna Sakura." Iruka continued to read off teams. After he finished he explained "Okay students come back in tomorrow to meet your instructors. Your first mission till then is to get to know your teammate. Dismissed."

But before anyone could leave Hinata raised her hand. "A-ano…s-sensei w-where is N-Naruto-kun?" She asked with a light blush, but before Iruka could answer the pink haired girl known as Haruna Sakura blurted.

"That idiot probably forgot to get out of bed. Honestly Hinata-chan I don't know why you like him. He's rude, stupid, and always acting so immature." With that Hinata's blush darkened because everyone knew her secret (not that they already hadn't). She was just glad Naruto wasn't there to hear that or at least that's what she thought.

Naruto was past confused now. No one noticed him, and they were acting like he never even existed, though he blamed this on being so damn small. Now he learned that some actually like him and cared for him. Now that he thought about it though it wasn't so strange because it explained why she blushed around him and was so shy. It wasn't like he didn't like her either. She was probably the cutest girl in class but she always was so shy so he hardly noticed her. But now that he heard what Sakura thought of him, he looked at Hinata in a different light. He realized that he had no chance with the pink haired object his affection and that he should give up while the getting's good. He could give Hinata a chance. But what really confused him was 'What the hell happened to my body!?'

"Well since you are his team mate you should go to his apartment and explain things." Iruka told Hinata hoping Naruto would have a new friend.

"Hai sensei." Hinata chanted feeling nervous about going to our hero's home. 'What should I do? I wonder if Naruto-kun is okay. I hope nothing happened.' She thought as she began to go over all the possibilities she could imagine.

Noticing her concerned look on her face Iruka spoke up. "Hinata everything should be alright, he probably is just sleeping." This calmed the shy girl a little. Soon everyone began to disperse from the room. Naruto was wondering if he should go home or try to see Iruka. He decided on neither and was going to see the Hokage. Just as he was about to leave Hinata noticed him.

"What are you doing little guy?" She asked tenderly to the golden kit heading for the door. She proceeded to pick to fox up and put in her coat.

'Hinata really kind and all, but she doesn't have to pick me up.' Naruto thought to himself as he tried to struggle out of the shy girl's jacket. Realizing that resistance was futile Naruto decided to get comfortable. Once he got comfortable he noticed that Hinata was one of the more 'well endowed' girls of the class. 'This is really comfortable' Naruto thought as he began snuggle into Hinata's bosom. 'I could get used to this' Naruto concluded as he decided to take it easy.

Seeing the little kit happy made Hinata give it a warm smile. Naruto received this smile with pleasure. 'Hinata-chan has a really nice smile. It makes her look cuter.' Naruto thought as he looked at his teammate. Naruto then went back to thinking about what could have caused this transformation. While they were walking Naruto noticed that he seemed to be receiving more glares than usual. 'What the hell? They treat me like they want me to go crazy.' Naruto thought as he sneered at some villagers.

Hinata too had noticed the glares. At first she thought the people were glaring at her but she then thought it over and realized they were glaring at the small kit. She remembered the story of the Kyūbi and remember that it look like a giant fox. She felt sorry for the poor fox, it had nothing to do with the attack and yet it was treated with hate. She got depressed at how vengeful her village could be. Naruto noticed this and decided to try to brighten her mood because when she looked sad he felt sad too. He jumped out her coat and made his way home. Hinata chased after him wondering what could be wrong. She didn't notice that they were running in the direction of Naruto's apartment. Naruto ran as fast as he could so he wouldn't notice their glares.

Naruto made it to his apartment with Hinata stopping right on one his tail. Naruto let out a yelp when the pain kicked in. "Sorry little guy. You stop so suddenly that I wasn't expecting it. Let me heal you." Hinata said with a tender smile. That smile melted away Naruto's pain. Hinata cradled that fox in one arm and used the other hand to do a simple healing Jutsu. Suddenly Naruto's body was filled with warmth. Naruto, being as mischievous a he was, wanted to make the most out being a fox, so he decided to lick Hinata affectionately on the face as a thank you. Hinata let the fox lick her because she knew it was thanking her. She just then realized that they were in front of Naruto's apartment. 'I wonder why we stopped here. I hope there isn't anything wrong' She thought for a while and then just decided it was coincidence.

While Hinata was in her thoughts Naruto began to scratch the door to get her to open it. Hinata realized that something was happening because why else would the fox want in. She quickly opened the door and rushed in. She stopped in the living room to take in her surrounding. Naruto went straight to his room. He stood there in shock at what he saw. Hinata saw that fox stop in the doorway in Naruto's room and was transfixed on something but she couldn't see what. She walked up to doorway and let out blood-curdling scream at the sight in front of her.

In the center of the room laid what looked like Naruto sprawled out on his bed. His arms and legs were in awkward positions and there was a giant hole in his stomach. The hole looked as if something forced its way out of Naruto's body. The hole was rough and looked like something chewed on it. There was body all over the room and what looked like burn marks everywhere. All in all it looked like some dark, sadistic ritual took place.

Once Hinata got past her shock she ran up to Naruto's body, not even caring about the blood. "Naruto-kun can you hear me?" Hinata said with hope while tears rolled down her face. Despite her hope Naruto's body was cols and stiff meaning that he had been dead for some while. "I'm so sorry Naruto-kun. You had no one in your last moments. I was always watching you but was never able to tell you how I felt. I was so afraid of you rejecting me but now you're gone. If you can hear me I want you to know that I loved you and I always will." Hinata said between sobs. Her voice was hoarse because of her weeping. She then collapsed onto Naruto's body and cried harder.

Naruto was in a daze. He saw his dead body yet he was alive and mostly well. All he could do was stand until he heard Hinata's words. 'She loves me. I was and idiot for wasting time on Sakura. She is everything I wanted and couldn't see it. But now I need to be there for her.' Naruto thought as he was snapped out of his daze. When he saw Hinata crying it felt like someone ripped out his heart and chewed it up. That's when he realized that he had fallen for the weeping angel in front of him. He began to nudge the girl and after a while he got her attention.

"What!?' She hissed making the poor fox flinch. She realized her attitude and apologized. "I'm sorry. It's just someone very import to me just died."

Naruto shook his head in disagreement, earning confused look from Hinata. He then began to point between his dead body and his fox one. This was the only way he could think of to tell her he was alive.

"What is it? Do you what happened to Naruto" Hinata asked with a perplexed expression. She couldn't figure it out but she knew that the fox and Naruto were connected.

Naruto nodded his head and began to point between bodies again hoping that she would eventually understand.

It took her a while but after a game of twenty questions she finally realized what the fox was doing. "A-are…are you Naruto-kun?" She asked with hope. Naruto nodded his head and then was immediately glomped by a joyous Hinata. "I'm so happy. I'm never going to leave your side." She said gleefully. Now she was crying tears of joy. Then she remember earlier event where she would have normally fainted from embarrassment, but she was too happy to be effected now. After a while Naruto let out yelp meaning he was being hugged to hard. Hinata immediately apologized and set him down. Naruto took this as a chance to lick Hinata's face to clean her tears. 'This is kinda like kissing' They both thought. Hinata wore a slight blush and Naruto would have to if he wasn't a fox. It was just, to Naruto, Hinata was an angel that shouldn't cry so he had to get rid of her tears.

"Okay, Naruto-kun lets go see the Hokage. Maybe he knows what to do." Hinata said as she picked up Naruto and put him in her coat. After Naruto got comfortable and Hinata got control over her flushed cheeks they set off to the Hokage Tower. She went as fast as possible to make sure she would get there before the Hokage retired for the day. When she arrived at his office she ran right past the two ANBU guards and into the room. "Hokage-sama we have a problem." Hinata exclaimed as she entered the room. The Hokage was in the middle of paper work and gladly accepted the interruption.

"No need to get flustered. What seems to be the problem Hinata-san?" The Hokage asked calmly, noticing the fox in her jacket.

"A-ano…you see…Naruto-kun wasn't at school today so I went to check up on him…" She paused while she was deciding to tell every detail or just the important stuff.

"Don't worry Hinata-san, just calmly explain the problem." The Hokage said not wanting to be distracted to long.

"Gomen. Well you see Naruto-kun seems to be transformed into a fox." Hinata finished quickly seeing that the Hokage was getting impatient.

"No apology needed. It seems Naruto got him self in a mess again. Naruto if you would jump out of Hinata's jacket and come over here, please." The Hokage more commanded than asked. This received growl from Naruto because he had to leave his special place. "Hinata-san could you please wait outside while I talk to Naruto in private. When we're done I'll have a guard let you in." Hinata hesitantly left the room hoping nothing bad was going to happen.

"What happened to day? Don't worry about communication because I can understand you perfectly." The Hokage said as soon as the door closed. So Naruto told him everything that he knew.

"Is that so?" The Hokage said more to himself than Naruto while trying to think why it happened. "Well, Naruto I have one more thing to say. You remember yesterday right." Naruto nodded and the Hokage continued. "Well the Kyūbi never attacked the village. He actually protected us. The real assailant was a shape shifting demon known as Umu. The Kyūbi and Umu were bitter enemies, and while the Kyūbi himself did hate Konoha he wasn't going let someone else destroy us. So with the help of the Kyūbi, Yondaime was able to seal Umu inside of you. But while perform the seal something happened which caused the Kyūbi to end up in you too. The interesting part of all this is that at the end of the battle none of the bodies were found. Just thought you deserved the whole truth." The Hokage explained. If this had been a normal day Naruto would have been shocked but since it wasn't he just took it as it was.

Suddenly to Naruto's immediate dislike the world froze. Just as was going to ask what happened heard two voices. One was from the forest while the other was new. "HEEEEELLLLLLOOOO?" Naruto yelled at the voices.

"What is it gaki?" The familiar voice roared, trying to be as formidable as possible.

"Oh it's container-sama. Hello, it is nice to finally meet you." Said the foreign voice. This voice on like the other sounded young, about a couple years older than Naruto.

"Who are you?" Naruto asked confused. Sure he had met one before but he never got a name.

"I'm Umu no Akuma, commit it to memory gaki." Said the rough voice now recognized as Umu.

"And I'm the once powerful Kyūbi no Kitsune." Said the younger voice with pride.

"Okay then I'm sure you two know what happened, so care to explain." Naruto said more commanding than asking,

"Well container-sama that akuma over there decided that he would unseal himself using a Jutsu from that scroll that he helped you with. I decide to be a bastard and screw him up." Kyūbi explained with a mischievous tone.

"Yes and it would have worked too, but since he had to immature it cost you your body. The Kyūbi may be as strong as me but he isn't as smart." Umu explained as he seethed at Kyūbi.

"Like hell I was going to let you get out by yourself. You know you were too impatient. If you had waited we both could have gotten out when the seal broke. But since you couldn't wait I decided that we both should stay permanently bonded to container-sama." Kyūbi explained in outrage. The two demons began to argue and Naruto didn't pay attention.

"That doesn't explain the body and how I get human again." Naruto interrupted.

"Oh yes, sorry. Well your new body was made from my old one using your DNA. As for becoming human, you can't. You now are a Kitsune so you earn your human form. To do that you must first earn tails but don't ask how to earn tails because I don't know. But looks like you got an extra one when you got your body." The Kyūbi said with one long breath.

"Bye now" Said Umu as he started time again.

Naruto explained what just happened to the Hokage. The Hokage agreed with the Kyūbi's explanation since it was the only logical explanation. He then called Hinata back in to the room. "Okay Hinata since Naruto is your partner you must take care of him." Hokage ordered. "This will be your mission until he gets his human form."
