Kiba: The love struck Inuzuka kept having strange dreams throughout the night. Every one of them involved Naruto…in rather…beautiful ways. Wait, since when did Kiba think anything was beautiful? He woke up at seven after getting halfway into a final dream in which Kiba lay sleeping in the forest and Naruto appeared. The blond kissed Kiba strongly and started undressing them both, but Kiba woke up before Naruto's manhood appeared.
"The Hell?" the dog-boy asked. "Okay, that was not a normal dream." Kiba paused and sniffed the air harshly. "Is, is that me?" he asked.
Yup, congratulations master. You're in heat, Akamaru told him from his sleeping place. Maybe today you can have some time with Naruto alone. Your sister doesn't seem to be as paranoid as your mom, but do be careful.
Kiba decided he wanted to mask his new scent a little better and got out another clean pair of boxers. He could thank his sister for not being so invasive like his mom the day before. Even after bathing though, the Inuzuka couldn't cover it up in the slightest, and he felt hot and muggy too. "Well this will be annoying," Kiba said to himself as he went downstairs.
"Aw, my little brother not enjoying his first heat very much?" Hana asked. She had a bowl, cereal, and milk out for Kiba already. The boy shook his head. "Unfortunately, only sexual activity cancels the heat. Masturbating won't really work. You're just gonna have to wait it out, because you're not going to break Mom's rule today. I know Akamaru's tracking abilities, so I'm relying on you to be honest and just get a third party."
"It's not like you and Mom will ever leave us alone, so I should probably just end it before we get too deep and it hurts Naruto," Kiba spoke. He didn't mean a word of it, but he did want a reaction from his sister. She was shocked to say the least.
"You'd give up so easily?" she asked. "What happened to the pain in the ass stubborn little brother I once knew?"
"I'm not giving up," Kiba told her. "I'm just not gonna set us up for failure from the beginning."
"Mom would be furious, but she'd be impressed," Hana replied. "You're free to leave as Mom would say." Kiba picked up Akamaru again and quietly walked out the door. "What the Hell are you getting into little bro?"
Naruto: He was dreaming peacefully in his bed. Naruto envisioned an open meadow that he was laying in. All around him were various creatures, but the one he loved the most was a nine-tailed fox the size of one of Kakashi's bigger ninja hounds. The fox was kind and very soft. It was very difficult to play hide and seek and win against him though, but Naruto laughed as they wrestled in the knee-high flowers. The blond's dream changed though as clouds appeared. A very tall man entered his grounds, and Naruto was left alone and crying as he dragged the fox off. No other creatures came to fill Kyuubi's place as Naruto's playmate, so he just dozed off feeling lonely, and the real boy finally woke up.
"What a weird…" he began until his nose caught a whiff of the air. "Oh jeez," Naruto exclaimed. "That's pungent."
"My, what a strong heat you have Naruto," Kyuubi mused from within him. "I'm almost a bit worried that it will send your mutt running for the hills until after Mating Season. It certainly is a rich flavor though, and I know my smells. Wash up and hide your smell as best you can. If Kiba is exposed slowly enough, he might come to enjoy it."
Naruto didn't need to be told twice. He took a searing hot bath and scrubbed himself until he was red all over. But no matter what he tried, soap, deodorant, strong herbs, he still could smell his own body way more than usual. "God, what will my friends think?" Naruto asked.
"They'll think you need a shower and might try to keep their distance, but I don't think this is anything major," Kyuubi replied. "Okay, major question one: how are you feeling exactly?"
"Sweaty, angry, sticky, and worried," Naruto replied.
"Aroused?" Kyuubi asked.
"No," Naruto replied. Kyuubi told him to just put a picture of Kiba in his head, and Naruto instantly started reacting. "Damn you. That will be humiliating if he sees me at attention."
"Just put it flat against your stomach under your shirt and waistband," Kyuubi told him. "You're welcome for the creative insight. Okay, you aren't immediately aroused, but you will be once you see him. I can work with this. Just tell him how you're affected right now. Discovering dark secrets later is a big NO! Other than that, I just need to see how he acts around you. Now go on and have your fun kid," the kitsune ended.
Naruto had to keep his jacket open to deal with his body temperature, but he would have to find a way to keep it closed when he got near Kiba. A white tank top was not a good hiding place for a stiff member. "Hey, ice should work," Naruto said aloud when he went to his fridge. He stuffed four Ziploc bags with ice cubes and put one under each arm, one on his chest, and one on his back. "Cold, cold, aaah," the blond sighed. His member was softening too, so things were looking up. Naruto zipped his jacket up and ate a bowl of instant ramen before leaving to look for Kiba.
Both boys were thinking about how to find each other when they actually walked right passed one another. It took another four seconds for Kiba to pick up the musky and now…tantalizing scent. "Naruto?" Kiba asked as he turned around. The blond stopped and smiled widely when Kiba entered his vision. "Hey, about yesterday, are you alright?"
"Breathe deeply through your nose kid," Kyuubi commanded. "Something's a bit…off." Naruto did as Kyuubi commanded to Kiba's confusion. The blond wrinkled his nose. He caught his own scent too, but Naruto's nose was picking up the complexities of Kiba's scent. "I've granted you a stronger sense of smell, and it is amplified even more by your heat. Whoa ho," Kyuubi began with a grin. "It seems dog-boy is a bit more dog than we realized." Naruto asked the fox what he was talking about. "This just got a whole lot more fun. You can tell him and not be afraid. Kiba himself is also in heat, and his is pretty potent too. This is going to be so easy."
Naruto blushed at the information, but he still hadn't answered Kiba's question. "Naruto," the Inuzuka called wondering if the blond was still conscious. The boy's cerulean eyes shot back to his face, and Naruto acted as though he had been pulled from a trance. "Hey, are you okay?" Kiba asked again. "You bawled your eyes out last night, and you smell really weird."
"Kiba, there is one more thing I need to tell you," Naruto began. "This is a bit embarrassing, but Kyuubi tells me that since he is a canine demon, he would normally go into heat like a regular fox, but he's sealed in me."
"You're in heat too?" Kiba asked outright. No one was listening, but Naruto signaled for him to be quiet and took Kiba into a back alley. "I knew you smelled strange. Oh, we Inuzukas go into heat too, and all men are bisexual from the day they are born. It isn't bad yet, but my mom says I'll get to the point where I'll want to do it with anyone on two legs. I was gonna tell you today, but this is a shocker. Who knew you'd be in heat from having a demon in you?"
"He seems happy," Kyuubi mentioned to Naruto. "It will be easier than normal to get him in bed if he's in heat. That last detail removes some of the fun though. Do anything on two legs be it male or female? Hm, that could be a potential problem. If he takes someone else first even to just relieve himself, dog-boy will stick with that person throughout his heat and yours, and that person might end up his life partner." Naruto suddenly felt a twinge of possessiveness run through him. "Make sure not to emanate that feeling too strongly. Kiba is an Uke for sure, but he's shy. Don't scare your mate off."
"That's kind of cool Naruto," Kiba told him. "It's nice knowing someone else is going through the same thing. Even if it is just Kyuubi making you smell…weird and making you feel crummy, it's nice knowing I can talk to you about it. Hey, do you want to spar again? I promise I won't knife you this time."
"Sure," Naruto replied sort of hesitantly. He could feel Kiba's aroma working through him, and it was inviting. Kyuubi told him to beat Kiba this time to show that he was the dominant one, but he did say to hold back and not immediately crush him to a pulp. Naruto knocked Akamaru out with a solid punch to the stomach, and when Kiba tried to pin him, Naruto sidestepped and put his knee on Kiba's back as he fell to the ground, subduing him. Hinata was impressed with Naruto's work as usual. She admired him from afar, and so Hinata clapped for him.
"Well, that was embarrassing," Kiba said as Naruto got off of him. "I should have known since you had seen our moves yesterday."
"Perfect," Kyuubi spoke. "He basically acknowledges the fact that even if he beats you once in a while, you'll turn right around and put him in his place. Dog-boy's a fighter, but he's not dominant material like you. You're both sweating though. Is Naru Junior still okay?" Naruto looked down and felt that he was still flaccid and in control.
"You guys ready for a lunch break?" Kiba asked Shino and Hinata. He would get their scents and then spend some quality time with Naruto after lunch. His teammates nodded, but Shino pulled him aside as Naruto walked on with Hinata.
"Kiba," he started out. "My bugs are acting weirdly when Naruto's around, and now they're acting weirdly around you. Is anything wrong, because your chakra signature and his are both registering as foreign to my insects." The boy blushed. He didn't want to tell Shino what was going on, but Shino being this close pushed certain thoughts into Kiba's mind, and he did his absolute best to ignore them.
"Um," he stuttered. "Talk to my sister about it. It's kind of a family secret. As to why Naruto's chakra is different, I noticed it too. Maybe you could ask the Hokage or maybe your dad. Would you mind backing off a bit? You're a little close Shino." The bug master noticed how close their faces were, and he could feel Kiba's breathing, so he quickly stepped back.
"Sorry, I just needed to be sure," the bug-user told him. "I'll talk to Lady Tsunade later and Hana-San. We're gonna fall behind Naruto and Hinata if we don't hightail it." Kiba looked down the path, and his two friends had gotten pretty far. Kiba and Shino had to sprint to catch up, and it only made the Inuzuka sweat more.
"When did you guys fall behind?" Naruto asked as he heard their footsteps. Kiba put his hands on his knees as he panted. Naruto's nose was filled with his scent, but something came to his attention. Shino's scent was on him, strongly. Naruto didn't see it coming, but his anger flared for a split second as his eyes shot toward the bug-user. Shino froze from the look, but Naruto's eyes softened almost instantly, and Kiba didn't see a thing. "So," he began calmly. "What are you in the mood for?"
"Um, I'm not very hungry," Hinata began. "Ichiraku's would be fine." Kiba nodded, and Shino tilted his head down. Naruto just shrugged, and they walked quietly to his favorite ramen stand. Shino was frightened to the core by the look Naruto gave him before, and he was sure that the aura he felt wasn't the blond's. He released a single bug and let it hide in Naruto's pants pocket. The Aburame assigned it to take a sample of Naruto's chakra and some sweat too. The blond was perspiring twice as much as usual, no, make it three times. Naruto worked his ass off, but he didn't sweat much usually.
Kiba challenged Naruto to an eating contest and lost, but they both ate merely half of their normal amounts. Two bowls for Kiba, and three and a half were consumed by Naruto. "I can't believe the shortage of C and D-Rank missions lately," the Inuzuka declared. "It's gotten kind of boring just training." He shot a glance at Naruto, and the blond started guessing about what it could mean. "Why don't you guys just go and do whatever. If Kurenai-Sensei wants us, she can find us. I'll hang with Naruto for a bit. Sakura and his sensei are also just lazing about, so he has some free time."
"I'll see you later then Kiba-Kun," Hinata spoke as she put down the money for her bowl. Shino bid the two farewell also after placing his share. Kiba and Naruto put down their money and walked out.
"Do you want to come by my place?" Naruto asked. Kiba nodded, and so they went via the rooftops. Meanwhile, Shino was walking toward the Hokage Mansion. "Hey Kiba," Naruto began once they were inside. "You said that your heat would kind of get progressively worse to the point where you um…needed relief?" Kiba grimaced. It was not a very easy subject.
"My mom said I can wait it out, but I don't know how bad it will get," the Inuzuka replied. "Why are you asking?"
"Ya, WHY?" Kyuubi asked angrily from within Naruto's mind.
"Well, Kyuubi said the same thing about my heat," Naruto replied.
"I did not!" the fox protested. "Ya, you'll be practically begging someone to get in bed with you, but it isn't like you'll lose your mind and jump someone if you don't get a person by the end of two months." Close enough, Naruto thought.
"It's like you're from my family altogether," Kiba said with a giggle. "Well, that's reassuring. We'll just have to watch each other's backs." Kyuubi finally figured out what Naruto was trying to do, and it worked. He decided to try and nudge Kiba a bit by manufacturing the same hormones from the previous night.
"Do you maybe want to just…kiss…a little?" Naruto asked as he put his head down a bit. Kiba blushed. This was an awkward situation. Ya, Naruto had been his crush, and they had kissed each other once each, but it wasn't like they had the time to really…kiss. Naruto looked at Kiba's expression and nearly lost face. "I shouldn't have asked. Sorry," he said out of worry. Kyuubi's pheromones started taking effect, and Kiba's thoughts slowed a bit. Maybe just this once, Kiba said to himself. If I don't like it, it isn't like he's forcing me.
"No…that's…perfectly fine," he told Naruto. The blond was stunned, and Kyuubi seemed intrigued. Kiba sat down next to Naruto on his bed and inhaled his scent deeply. Naruto couldn't bear it anymore and crashed their lips together. Kiba was now the one surprised by his tenacity, but a warmth spread through him that didn't feel uncomfortable like his heat. This was…enjoyable. Kiba looked to see Naruto's eyes filled with hesitation even as he sucked lightly on his rosy lips. He couldn't just leave Naruto hanging, so Kiba decided to return the kiss and held his hands on Naruto's forearms as he did so. The blond's eyes closed, and a tear slid from his left one. It put a profound feeling of acceptance in Kiba, and he suddenly felt so much closer to Naruto.
"Okay, now we're getting somewhere," Kyuubi spoke as though he thought Naruto had taken forever. "I'm gonna switch the pheromone for a more…alluring one, but it won't drive him up a wall. Lick his bottom lip lightly. If he opens the first time, enter his mouth slowly and trace his teeth with your tongue first. Then poke at his tongue to ask for a battle for dominance. Beat him, but then let him have his fun to be fair." Naruto was putting his love life and a lot of faith in Kyuubi's hands, and he obeyed.
They managed to breathe through their noses, and their mixing scents were like the perfect perfume. Naruto was just happy that Kiba could accept him like this. Akamaru held his nose and whimpered lowly, but he did his best not to interrupt the moment. Kiba was feeling strange though. He had never kissed a girl before, much less a guy, and he was kissing Naruto, his freaking crush. This was a new experience, but his fears just melted away as Kyuubi's second set of pheromones took effect. He felt Naruto lick his bottom lip softly, and he didn't know what to make of this, but Kiba decided to open his mouth. Naruto's eyes cracked open at this, and Kiba stared back at him with passion in his eyes.
Naruto did as Kyuubi told him and slowly stuck his tongue inside Kiba's cavern. He tasted like the spicy ramen he had eaten not long ago, but there was a subtle, masculine taste too, and Naruto enjoyed it to no end. The whiskered boy traced every curve and edge of Kiba's teeth, and Naruto received a moan from Kiba. This was his cue, and Naruto pressed his own tongue into Kiba's. The Inuzuka didn't have any idea of what Naruto meant, so Naruto had to actually pick his tongue up with his own and push on it. Kiba grinned. So that's what you want, he thought as he raised an eyebrow and grinned toward Naruto. Alright, I'm game.
Kiba did something unexpected and pushed Naruto into the sheets as their breathing sped up. Naruto's eyes narrowed, and he pinned Kiba down in return. The dog-boy's tongue fell still after thirty more seconds of wrestling, and Naruto smiled with his eyes as he stopped his tongue. What? Kiba asked in his mind. Naruto rolled his eyes and literally sucked Kiba's tongue into him. Oh, well…okay.
"He's shy, so just give him free range until he stops the kiss. You're both running out of breath, but he has to be the one to break off," Kyuubi told him. Naruto let Kiba up and even laid on his back for his crush as the Inuzuka traced the roof of his mouth. "Perfect, and with my chemical weapon, he'll be craving you more and more as the week goes on. I'm playing by yours rules of taking it slow, but I'm still gonna have to seduce him if he's this ignorant." Naruto thanked him and gave Kyuubi the "go ahead, I'm happy."
"Oh my God," Kiba breathed as he broke the kiss. Naruto and he were both panting. They looked into each other's eyes as Kiba was positioned a bit provocatively above him. They were seeing familiar nervousness in each other, and that was reassuring. Kiba's expression brightened as he caught his breath. "Naruto, that was…awesome." He said it quietly. Kiba wanted to tell Naruto just how much he had enjoyed that, but the right words escaped him, so he said it quietly as he stared into the loving eyes of his blond. "That was the first time I ever really did that, with a girl or a guy. Either you're really good, or I'm easy to please."
"It's a bit of both dog-boy," Kyuubi said inside Naruto's mind. "Are you aroused Naruto?" The blond sent the best mental signal of "no" he could come up with. "I don't smell any on your mutt either. True love, now that's a bit rare. His hormones are acting up though, and he's trying to shut them up. In other words, his sex drive has appeared, but he doesn't want to frighten you or embarrass himself."
"I know this will sound strange Kiba," Naruto began. "But I can't stop thinking about you. You're…amazing."
"Don't laugh at me, but I couldn't stop dreaming about you last night," Kiba admitted with a blush as he smiled down at Naruto. "You don't think this is gross, do you?" he asked a bit worriedly. Kiba's expression changed to one of hesitation, and Naruto could smell a twinge of fear emanating from him.
"Kiba," he started. "You've been my crush for nearly two years now, but I never thought I'd get the chance. I love you Kiba, so of course I don't think this is gross. If you're uncomfortable though, I'd understand. I can't just expect you to like me back that way, especially in my case." His voice became downtrodden, and Naruto's eyes lost their luster. "As long as you're still my friend though, I don't care. You can probably do better than me anyway." Kyuubi was in a white fury with Naruto for saying this, and Kiba now had a broken heart.
"I've been crushing on you too," Kiba told him. Naruto's eyes lifted and met Kiba's gaze. "If you're okay with this, then so am I. No worries. I love you too."
"Kiba," Naruto spoke quietly with a laugh intermingled. It was the kind of quiet laugh that expressed happiness that washed over into flattery. He brought Kiba down on top of him and rubbed the top of his head. Kiba felt a bit odd resting on Naruto's chest, but the scent and rhythmic breathing of the blond made him feel secure. He nearly fell asleep before Naruto picked his head up and kissed him lovingly. "Do you want to go have dinner?" Naruto asked. Whoa, Naruto had just asked Kiba out on a date, but the word "dinner" sparked a memory in him. His mom and his sister oh crap!
"Sorry Naruto," Kiba began. "My mom will flip if I'm out too late." He paused at the door. "Tomorrow though, and I love you." Naruto smiled and bid him goodbye.
"What the Hell did you mean 'he can do better?!'" Kyuubi snapped. "Okay, that might have scored some points with his sensitive nature, but don't ever play the submissive puppy card again. I alpha'ed other alphas okay. There is no way you are letting him top you unless he is sitting on your manhood with it up his ass. Ugh, the things I do for you Naruto. Look, you've got his love; now it's time to build up the lust so you can seal the deal."
"Love comes first before your 'needs' Kyuubi," Naruto replied. "I'll take him when he's ready."
"With that last set I got in him as he stopped at the door, he'll be ready to ask about it tomorrow," Kyuubi told him.
"Don't force him," Naruto spoke angrily. "He deserves better than me raping him when he's not even himself." Kyuubi finally shut up, and Naruto took the bags of cold water out from his clothes. "This is annoying, this stupid heat. I'll never be able to get to sleep. Is a side effect loss of hunger?"
"Ya, it tends to do that," Kyuubi confirmed. "It ought to help you get into the sexiest form your body can pull off. You've already got strong medium sized abs, and you have a nice tight ass too."
"Ew, too much information pervert," Naruto replied. Kyuubi sent him a mental picture of himself from Kyuubi's viewpoint. "My hips aren't that bony." Naruto started considering his own looks. Was he actually even attractive?
"Trust me; you're a fine catch for any girl or guy who comes your way, and the scent of your heat will make your admirers forget any small flaws like your yes, slightly bony hips," Kyuubi told him. "I can knock that out though. Get plenty of sleep, because you will feel kind of tired in the morning once I'm done. It won't hurt, but I can reshape your hips so that they curve better with your skin. I'll also add a touch of muscle mass between the bone and skin. Like this." Naruto looked at the figure standing in his mind. The new look was subtly different in that region, and he approved. "Okay, one order of perfection coming up," Kyuubi joked before the blond took off his clothes stopping at his boxers and fell asleep. Unbeknownst to the two, Shino's bug took a sample of the chakra that happened to be flowing around Naruto's left hip and some of the sweat from the pubic hairs that existed above his waistline before flying off to its master.
Kiba ran to get home and double-checked his scent. Naruto was on him heavily, but Hinata's was definitely discernable too. Thank you Kami-Sama, he said in his mind. Upon entering the grounds to his house, Tsume, Hana, and Kurumaru ambushed him. The giant dog tackled Kiba and pinned him.
"You are in so much trouble," the giant wolf spoke. "He's got the Uzumaki's scent on him, and it's potent too." Hana closed her eyes and frowned while screaming at a chibi version of her brother in her mind. She kept her outward self calm though. Tsume leaned down and took one long whiff.
"Fifty lashes, now," his mother spoke.
"Hey, I have Hinata's scent on me, and you can also double-check with Shino too," Kiba said as he tried to struggle out from underneath the massive paw which held him down.
"That's why I'm not skinning you," his mother replied. "I'm not an idiot although, Hana, what do you make of this jumble of scents." Kiba's sister walked over and sniffed twice.
"Pheromones, lots of them," she said. "Hey, some of these are the ones from last night…oops." Tsume blushed. Her look demanded an answer. "Okay, before you explode on either Kiba or Naruto-Kun, you should know that Naruto kind of told Kiba the truth about the Nine-Tails last night." Her mother paled, and she lost all expression for a second. "I also have a slide to show you. Kiba and Naruto bumped into each other despite my best efforts, but I didn't interfere because of two things. One was the conversation, and the other was that I picked up a peculiar set of pheromones in the air." Hana used her chakra to gather the calming pheromones into one jar and Kyuubi's second scent into another jar.
"Pheromones?" Kurumaru interrupted before sniffing the air deeply. "Whoa, she's not kidding." He swayed a little bit, but the alpha wolf kept his balance and hold on Kiba.
"There are new ones too, but the ones from last night you should examine for yourself Mom," Hana ended. "This new set I can already explain."
"Let him up," Tsume ordered. Kurumaru growled lowly before letting her son stand. Kiba sighed and quickly followed Hana inside the house so she could run the tests again. She gathered up an extremely large amount from just Kiba's jacket, and she made him breathe it in all at once. "Now what am I looking for? You have a more extensive knowledge about this than I do."
Kiba felt the familiar lightheadedness and calming effects, and his pupils widened a little bit. "Okay, Kiba's heart rate and breathing both decrease and relax upon breathing them in, but the pheromones were designed specifically to work on a male's body. I could actually smell them, and they don't affect you or me, so they were made specifically for Kiba in this case." Tsume glared at her son who was partially dazed from the overdose. "But what threw me and kept me from stopping the two from talking was that these pheromones…don't cause attraction. There isn't a hint of Testosterone or Estrogen in them, not a single seductive chemical or aphrodisiac."
"Then Naruto is one bad charmer," Tsume said.
"The other effects we found were that Kiba's mind clears up, and he can focus on any one thing much more easily," Hana continued. "Now, I can't make you fully understand this, because I witnessed the conversation, not you, but Naruto was in a lot of pain when he told Kiba everything. Now think about it. Why would he use pheromones in that situation?" Tsume rolled her eyes. Thinking of every possible solution was not in her talent tree. "They don't knock Kiba half conscious, and he knows every bit of what Naruto told him about the Nine-Tails. These pheromones simply calmed Kiba down and made him focus on what he was listening to. In other words, Naruto was afraid that Kiba might attack him or run before he could finish explaining. He didn't make a single attempt on Kiba, but you'll be furious to know Kiba kissed him before running straight back here to me." Tsume turned to Kiba, and anger was written in her eyes, but disbelief sat in them too.
"Is that everything?" she asked.
"Give it another five seconds," Hana replied. Five seconds later, Kiba's chakra began rising at a fast and steady rate, and his heart rate and breathing increased beyond the norm. Tsume was fearful that Kiba would go nuts for a second, but his chakra leveled off. "If you examine this slide, you'll find bits of the Kyuubi's chakra in the pheromones."
"Naruto tried to make him go crazy and maybe even turn him into a fox?" Tsume growled.
"No, and calm down," Hana told her again. "The amount of chakra is very tiny, but it is meant to give the target a charge. Basically, it's an energy booster." Tsume raised an eyebrow in curiosity. "Remember, Naruto didn't do a single thing to try and get Kiba to touch him or do anything beyond that. I'm certain that the Kyuubi just put his chakra there as either a stabilizer for the compound or to give Kiba a boost in case he decided himself that he wanted Naruto right then and there."
"So you're saying that it was a calming agent with a bonus," Tsume stated. "It sounds to me like Naruto meant to get in a second set. First make Kiba feel on top of the world, then lure him in when he felt safe."
"Naruto isn't like that," Kiba said quietly.
"Oh no?" his mother asked almost hysterically. "As much tongue as he shared with you, you're certain?" She seemed very skeptical of Kiba's words, but he wouldn't be called a liar.
"I'm still a virgin aren't I?" Kiba asked, getting directly to the point. "He didn't lay a hand on my skin, and he made no attempts to convince me to go any further." Tsume's eyes widened. Kiba was standing up to her. She sniffed him down carefully to make sure he wasn't lying.
"You wrestled a bit, although it just smells like touches from fighting. He's taking his time like a smart little demon," his mother finally said after examining her son's words and sniffing him down. Kiba's anger flared, and red chakra blazed from him, scaring Akamaru, Kurumaru, Hana, and even his mom a bit.
"Naruto is not a demon!" Kiba yelled. "You adults are so self-righteous and pitiless. Naruto has a demon sealed inside him yes, but he isn't possessed. Naruto's been the same since the day I met him at the academy. He trains his butt off, he's treated like a plague by the villagers, and he wears a mask of happiness wherever he goes. You don't even know him a third as well as I do! Naruto's in fucking pain because of people like you. Don't you ever call him a demon again, because you're wrong," he ended.
The red chakra faded away, and Kiba's eyes softened. He looked at his hand to see that he had cut it open from clenching his fist, but it was healing a bit faster than usual, and then it seemed to stop healing. The claws on his hands retracted, and Kiba shook in fear at what he had just felt. Sorrow, anger, hatred, and rage all swirled through him, and together they were a very potent combination.
"Kiba, are you alright?" Hana asked. His breathing was deep but labored, and tears fell from Kiba's eyes. Akamaru jumped into his lap and looked up into his master's sorrow-twisted face. "Well, what does this tell you Mom?" she asked. Tsume walked up the stairs and went to her room to think in solitude. "Are you okay little bro?" Kiba just looked up at her with pain in his eyes. "Go get some rest Kiba." Her younger brother nodded before picking his jacket up and going to his room as he sobbed. Hana prepared a new slide from the second pheromone set. She wouldn't test its effects yet on Kiba, not in his current state, but she looked it over carefully. Hana was frightened a bit when she caught traces of Testosterone in the mix. A single light sniff angered her a little bit. "Damn, it was aimed right at a male, at Kiba. Come on Naruto; I want to believe in you. Prove my mother wrong, not right."
"What's this about Naruto?" a familiar voice asked. Hana looked up and saw Shino by the window and gestured for him to come in. "I've spoken to the Hokage, and you might want to look at this slide. One of my insects collected each of the samples. They've been acting strangely around Naruto, and they say his chakra signature is foreign. Just today, they reported the same thing about Kiba. He told me to come and ask you about this. Both of them have been sweating much more than usual, and they smell, bad."
"Both of them do?" Hana asked. Shino nodded. "Hand me the slide."
"It's a chakra sample, an odor sample, and a sweat sample collected right off of Naruto's body," the bug-user told her. "Tsunade says that the chakra is a mixture of two, Naruto's and the Nine-Tailed Fox's." Hana's head snapped up. "I was told Naruto's condition by my family years ago. We know he isn't possessed. My father was present at Naruto's birth, and he says Naruto is a lot like his father. Not a single detail even hints that he is possessed. This chakra sample though shows significant activity from the Kyuubi's chakra, but my bug didn't report any internal or external injuries that would require extensive healing."
"This is invaluable Shino," Hana said as the slide came into focus. "Thank you so much. I'll explain the full situation in a sec, but let me write down my findings. This finally makes sense." Shino was an expert when it came to conducting research, so he easily waited ten minutes before Hana finally answered him. "Kiba would kill me if he knew I was explaining this to his friend. Everyone in the Inuzuka clan is part dog. As such, we enter a stage every year in spring. We go into heat." Shino didn't even show a reaction, but he was heavily surprised. He was beginning to piece it together, but he didn't know how Naruto fit into this. "Kiba is at that age, so he has entered his first heat and is embarrassed as such. Common symptoms are sweating, feeling uncomfortably hot which moves into itchiness, minor exhaustion, loss of sleep, and…arousal." Shino blushed for one of the rarest moments in history.
"Okay, that explains the change in chakra and the smell, but can you explain Naruto?" Shino asked.
"We keep a slide of everything, including the sweat of a male clan member in heat," Hana began. "Naruto is a lot younger than this guy was, but I have no doubts now. The Nine-Tailed Fox has made him go into heat as well at the same time." Shino's mouth dropped. This was not information he wanted to hear. "Here comes the part that if you leak this information you will regret it eternally." Hana leaned over to whisper this part into Shino's ear. "All males of this clan are bi. They will do it with either gender and they will not care as long as they get relief. Females just get really testy and irritable when in heat, but males will slowly become more desirous to the point where madness is looming unless they…relieve themselves. This is what Kiba is going through, and I'm sure Naruto is dealing with at least half of the symptoms himself."
"Oh my God," Shino spoke quietly. "To think this is even possible. Okay, I now have most of the puzzle solved, but you are examining pheromones?"
"I know for a fact that it is the Kyuubi manufacturing them," Hana began as she replaced her slide and handed the one back to Shino. "By the way, get a high definition color photo of that slide for future records. Now, Mom isn't very happy with Naruto seeing Kiba, so we've been tailing them both. Last night, Naruto released a set of calming and boosting pheromones. He cried his heart out and explained the fox to Kiba right in front of my hidden eyes, but he exposed Kiba to those pheromones before he started talking. I've examined them extensively. Naruto's intention was to make sure Kiba heard him out before deciding on his opinion, but the Kyuubi added bits of his own chakra. When the compound takes effect, a male will be calmed for a good period of time, but then he will become steadily more energetic after about nine minutes, and the fox's chakra mingles with the subject's. Basically, if Kiba wanted to, he'd have plenty of energy to enjoy himself with Naruto you know how." Shino turned dark red. "Now, that set of pheromones didn't have an alluring agent in it, but the new one we found on Kiba a half hour ago does. I didn't want to believe it, but now it sort of looks like Naruto is trying to seduce Kiba. I am going to test it on him tomorrow before he leaves, but keep an eye on Naruto. If he tries anything you know is inappropriate, stop them, but don't tell Kiba I assigned this to you. He'd freak on both of us if he found out. Do me a favor too. Bring back various samples tomorrow of his scent. Your bugs can detect the slightest change, so I can track what he's doing and what's happening to him. If you can bring back large enough samples in glass jars like this," she pointed out, "I can test them on Kiba and doubly make sure of his safety."
"You've got yourself a partner Ms. Inuzuka," Shino ended before leaving.
"I just really hope I'm wrong," Hana said as she took one last look at the slide. She walked upstairs and knocked on her mother's door. "May I come in?" Tsume opened the door, and Hana stepped inside. She closed the door quietly.
"What is it?" the woman asked irritably. "Do you have a cure for stubborn child?"
"No," Hana replied. "Look, I'm here to talk about Naruto."
"Obviously," her mother interrupted.
"Shino just came by, and he brought me a slide the Fifth made herself," Hana began. "I don't know if you'll laugh, but I've found and confirmed that Naruto is in heat." Tsume turned to her with a look of shock on her face. "Believe what you will, but I've got the sweat picture to prove it." Hana held it up to her mother's face. "There are several copies, but Shino has the original slide. Now, when you add this to the equation, Naruto's behavior makes complete sense. He isn't trying to seduce Kiba, but the Kyuubi might be."
"What does that really change then?" Tsume asked. "If the Kyuubi's got control, which this picture partially suggests, then we're right back at square one. The only difference is that we know Naruto and Kiba are both experiencing the same thing and are good friends." Tsume froze. "That means they trust each other, which means Kiba's already ninety percent of the way into his grasp. Damn!" she exclaimed.
"Quit thinking this is all an elaborate plot Mom," Hana begged. "After hearing what Kiba said and what he went through at your hands, don't you think we should wait and watch instead of just intrude and immediately jump to a conclusion? I also haven't detected a trace of Naruto's arousal on Kiba's clothing, and that means that while he has yes been kissing up a storm with Kiba, he's in control of his actions entirely."
"I just don't want Kiba to get hurt," Tsume finally said. "I know Naruto's done a lot of good things for the village and nearly died trying to bring back that Uchiha bastard, but I just don't trust him. I can treat him just fine in a normal situation, but this is Kiba's love life and his safety we're talking about here."
"He's stronger than Dad was," Hana spoke softly.
"And that's why I love him," her mother ended. "Now, was there anything else?"
"I have to test Kiba in the morning with another pheromone I found on him, but other than that, no," Hana replied before stepping out into the hallway and going to her room for some sleep. She listened to Kiba's sobs from within his room, but she knew she couldn't talk to him about this, not when he was nearly unstable. "Get better little bro," she spoke softly before closing the door to her room and going to bed.
"Why am I so mad Akamaru?" Kiba asked his dog as he pet him. "I know Mom deserved everything I said, but not like that."
It's Naruto's chakra, the white hound told him. Think about it. He probably has a lot of pent up rage at the village, but he always covers it up unless he's alone or around you. He actually shows you sorrow and other feelings. Naruto probably just let it go into you by accident.
"But Sis was talking about the Kyuubi's chakra being in whatever smell was coming off of Naruto," Kiba sniffled.
It isn't like I know the lore, but he could be angry for being stuck inside Naruto, Akamaru replied. Although, you were more passionate than you were angry. I think the chakra just spilled forth from your emotions getting to be too powerful. Sure, you gave off a frightful aura, but you didn't attack or nothing. Everyone's fine, so you don't need to worry.
"But what if this gets worse boy?" Kiba asked as fresh tears came to him. "What if the Kyuubi keeps giving me his chakra? What if I turn into a rampaging fox demon?"
It would take much more chakra than what you've felt, Akamaru reassured him. I'd say around a thousand times the density, and I doubt he'd just pump you full of chakra. I doubt he even could with that seal on him. Plus, why hasn't he used Naruto to do it if it was that easy?
"I guess you're right," Kiba said as he sniffled one last time. "Thanks Akamaru. Should I ask Naruto about it?" The dog just rolled his eyes. "I guess I should trust him more shouldn't I…unlike the villagers." Akamaru gave him an approving bark and wagged his tail. "Goodnight then Akamaru," Kiba ended before discarding his pants and trying to fall asleep above the covers.
Author Notes: Ooo, I love me a good plot twist. I promise Naruto and Kiba will go further, but the first lemon deserves its own chapter don't you think? Plus, my ideas will require a couple extra pages for what happens after. PLEASE REVIEW. I'm worried that I'm not writing this correctly. To be honest, I'm fifteen and writing my third fanfic, my second yaoi pairing one. I'm totally new to this. Suggestions are welcome.
