Disclaimer: Ok, look people. I don't own Naruto so my disclaimer stays the same throughout this story. Enjoy
It has been 3 days since I've been living with Kakashi and my bond with him is the strongest I have with anyone else in Konoha, besides Naruto.
Naruto and I just clicked when we spent the day eating ramen, training and pranking the many people we both knew. We mainly teased Iruka because he was a cool guy who just adored Naruto and was a close friend of mine who wouldn't make us do chores as punishment for what we did to him. I always went to the training grounds with him to watch him train and noted the increase of his skills. We continued to bond and train together until I showed Naruto what our family's bloodline could do.
We were out at the training grounds with Sakura and Kakashi when I decided to tell Naruto about our family's Kekkai Genkai. I did a one handed hand-sign to demonstrate myself turning into a mouse. I crawled up Naruto's leg, torso and finally rested on his shoulder and changed into a barn owl. I flew off him and changed back into my human form. "You see, if the fourth Hokage hadn't used you for the Demon Fox, you could have had this ability too." I smiled at him.
Naruto's face, though, was in complete awe. Then, he suddenly asked a dangerous question which made both me and Kakashi stiffen. "Can you change into the Demon Fox?"
I looked back at Kakashi for help but he just stood there, waiting for me to answer. I turned back to Naruto. "I can't change into the actual size of the Fox…" I sighed. "But I can make a small replication of him."
Naruto, although being the Carrier for the Demon Fox, he had never seen the actual creature before. "Do it."
I let out a large breath of air and slowly changed into the legendary Nine-tailed Demon Fox. I had only done this transformation twice and both time I had run out of Chakra and passed out. I couldn't understand why this happened but it didn't matter because it didn't hurt.
As I completed my morph and sprouted the last of the nine tails extruding from my spine, I heard Naruto gasp loudly. This must have been quite a shock for him. He suddenly fainted. "Naruto!" I growled in shock using the Fox's voice. Kakashi ran over to us and dragged Naruto over towards a tree and placed him in a sitting position against it then walked back over to me.
"I'd never thought I'd see the Fox in such a real form again." He held out a hand and slowly brushed it over my furry crimson snout. My nine tails whipped the air behind me and I let out a low growl. "Does it hurt?"
I shook my head and replied in the fox's voice, "No, not really. I can't feel my Chakra being drained either." I paused. "Does this hurt?" I raised myself into a hunched standing position and breathed hard on Kakashi's face. I raised my right paw and lifted up Kakashi's head guard, revealing his Sharingan and stared right into it. We both were teleported to another dimension.
"How are you doing this?" Kakashi clamped his hands to his head in pain as some strange parasites that came out of nowhere stabbed him in spine.
"I don't know. It just happens." I leaped at lightning speed at the insects and ripped them to pieces, and suddenly returning us to the normal world. "Sorry. I didn't mean to." Kakashi was breathing a little heavily but said that he's ok and pushed his headband down again. I grinned.
"Kakashi-sensei…?" a small voice asked behind us. We both turned to face Sakura, Kakashi suddenly going wide-eyed. "What-what is that?"
I looked at Kakashi's pale face and watched him quickly pull up his headband to reveal his second eye again. I gasped at the site of the Sharingan starting to form a vortex in his eye and knew that he was going to hypnotise the innocent girl so she had no recollection of what happened at the training grounds today, except for her training.
As he finished, I turned back into a human and bent over my knees, panting heavily. Kakashi rushed over. "What's wrong?"
"Whenever I transform, one morph costs me point zero three two of my Chakra, but whenever I change in the Fox, no matter what my Chakra amount is, it completely drains me." I dropped to my hands and knees on the ground and started to fade away from reality. A strong hand quickly grabbed my upper chest and slowly leaned me against it owner. I opened my eyes weakly and whispered, "I'm sorry about this."
Kakashi raised an eyebrow but then noticed that half his Chakra was being drained from him. He quickly let go of me and noticed his Chakra wasn't being syphoned anymore and that I was attempting the stand up. "What was that?"
I stood up crookedly and smiled weakly. "Another family trait. We can take a portion of anyone's Chakra when we desperately need it." I suddenly threw up concentrated bile onto the ground and wiped my mouth when I finished. "Sorry."
Although I only took half his Chakra, Kakashi was breathing heavily after teleporting Naruto and Sakura to their homes. He obviously didn't have much Chakra left in him after his morning sparring and being teleported to the Sharingan's world, so I lead him quickly to his apartment and to his room to allow him to rest. But first, I needed to do something.
"What are you doing?"
"This Chakra is reacting badly to my body, like an allergic reaction. All Chakra's are different, like fingerprints, and yours just happens to be the type that my body rejects so I'm giving it back to you. I don't care if I pass out." I unzipped his vest and lifted up his shirt. I made a complex hand sign over his body and placed my hands on his chest. A blue glow surrounded my hands as I returned my burrowed Chakra into it rightful owner.
I somehow knew when to stop and took my hands of Kakashi's chest. He looked at me tiredly. "You might want to lay down yourself. You don't look to good."
He was right. I had no Chakra left and I was swaying quite a bit. I nodded drunkenly and was just about to stand up and leave the room when I stopped and collapsed on top of Kakashi. I heard a small 'oof' before I blacked out and felt a warm gloved hand stroke my hair. I smiled.
I woke in a darkened room. Looking outside, I noticed that it was dusk already judging by the amount of Sunlight in the sky. I estimated that I had been out for about 6hrs and slowly sat up in a bed that wasn't mine. I looked across the room and noticed I was still in Kakashi's room. I sigh. "What a lazy Jonin. You'd think he'd of taken me back to my room."
I shrugged and pulled myself out of Kakashi's bed and walked groggily down the hallway and into the kitchen. "Hello again." I jumped and turned around to see who greeted me. It was kakashi. He was stretched out on his couch reading his book once again.
I sweat dropped and greeted him with a slight bow. "What's the time?"
"Uh, it's six thirty."
"I'm guessing you have no plans then, right?" he nodded. I laughed and turned to the fridge. "So what do you wanna do? I'm too exhausted to go outside."
"Well, I thought you'd have been sleeping for longer so I just wanted to read, but I don't suppose you'd wanna read too."
I laugh again whilst pulling out some leftover ramen and placing it in the microwave. "Actually, you may not know this but I like the Paradise books too."
Kakashi looked at me shocked for a moment then asked, "Do you want to read with me?"
I smiled. "Sure." I pulled out my ramen and walked over to the couch, batting one of Kakashi's legs off it and lying between him. "What part ya up to?"
"Kyara has just asked Mondaine for a time out." He answered.
"Heh, this is a good bit."
"You've read this part already?" He shuffled a bit to look over my head and at my face. "Naruto said this book was new."
"Yep. I'm, like, twelve pages in front of you. Also, Jaraiya is a close friend of mine and sent me the book too."
"Darn."
"But I don't mind reading this part again."
I watched Kakashi place his arms over my head and rest them on my upper chest so we could both read the little book together. I tapped his knee when I had finished the page whilst he would tap a finger on my collarbone to indicate that he'd finished.
After reading 50 pages of the book, my eyes grew weary and I silently dozed off on Kakashi's chest. It would be 2 more hours before he would notice that I was sleeping and another hour to finally fall to sleep himself, not bothering taking me back to my room and himself to his own.
Hey, don't forget to R&R. I enjoy recieving critical feedback and comments.
