Hey Everyone, I got really encouraging support for the first chapter that I uploaded and as I'm on a long journey that has me bored to tears, I decided to write the second chapter of what I hope to be a great story.

I tried to make this chapter a bit longer to let the whole thing pick up and give you guys more to read. Enjoy

Disclaimer alert: once again, I do not own Naruto.

'Naruto' Bijuu Thought

Naruto awoke to find himself in a dimly lit corridor, he quickly realised that he was lying in water and endeavoured to get back on his feet as fast as possible. Once he was standing, he felt that the water only reached up to his ankles but it felt filthy.

'So, how did I end up in a sewer?' He thought to himself.

As he looked around him, he wondered to himself which direction he should go towards. Both appeared to be the same, with lamps barely lighting the walls on either side of the passageways. From what he could gather, the walls were made of stone, had a beige quality to them and had parallel lines engraved into them, all in all, there was nothing that would help him get out, no symbols, nothing.

And that's when he heard it: a deep rumble that he originally thought was the wind seemed to actually be some sort of breathing coming from the way he had woken up facing. The blond six-year-old carefully made his way towards the sound as he knew nothing about where he was and was starting to panic. His breath became increasingly laboured as he realised while he was walking that the breathing was far too loud and deep to be human. He started to worry much more, as his already hyperactive imagination began creating increasingly horrifying ways that this encounter could end in.

The first thing Naruto noticed as he entered the room at the end of the corridor was that a weight seemed to have settled on his limbs, he started moving sluggishly and the resistance of the water did not help matters. His first impressions of the room he was now in was that it was just as badly lit as the rest, a whole portion on the opposite side of the room was completely obscured, it was also the area he felt the weight upon him come from, which did not help his already badly frayed nerves.

He slowly made his way to the obscured part of the room and found that what had just been beyond his vision a few steps back were in fact a large set of bars that formed what resembled a gate, with a piece of paper with what looked like writing halfway up. Suddenly, Naruto saw some movement behind the gate, however that was not what scared him, what did terrify him was the sheer size of what appeared to be moving. It seemed to at least reach the level of the piece of paper on the gate. Slowly, a red eye opened and stared at him and then, he heard a deep, rumbling voice that seemed to contain the power of earthquakes speak:

"So, my jailor finally deigns to pay me a visit, although I must admit I wasn't expecting to see you so soon."

Naruto was confused: why did this creature seem to know him?

"U…ummm, I'm sorry, do I know you?"

The giant eye closed for a few seconds before opening again, giving the impression that the giant thing had just blinked at him.

"Never matter, come here child, come close to me"

For a brief second, the phrase: "My what a big eye you have" entered Naruto's mind but he knew better than to blurt out a potentially insulting sentence to a giant, extremely dangerous looking… thing.

He slowly made his way towards the giant gate but before he could get too close, the sixth sense he had developed from escaping mobs began screaming at him to run, when it saw that the blond child was hesitating, the eye suddenly narrowed and before Naruto could so much as scream, a giant claw was suddenly six inches from his eyes, the only reason it didn't go further being the gate that held against the considerable force of the large piece of keratin that had tempted to eviscerate him.

"Hmmm, damn this seal. Oh, how I would love to have you at my mercy, I promise you your death would be quick, come here insect."

Scrambling away so as to keep out of the reach of the decidedly unfriendly creature, Naruto took a moment to calm down recollect from yet another near death experience.

'I've been having way too many of those recently'

As he continued to observe the creature in front of him, he asked:

"What are you?"

The eye turned itself back towards the child, giving him full view of the malice hidden behind that singular crimson orb.

"You are not worthy of knowing WHO I am, how dare an insect such as yourself demand anything of me, an immortal? I have had enough of your presence, be gone from my sight."

And with that, Naruto felt the oppressive force he had been feeling since entering the room push him forcefully out of the room, the corridor and the sewer and back into the real world. The last thing he saw was what looked like several tails swishing behind the creature.

The first thing he heard were the usual sounds you would hear at a hospital: people bustling around and sounds from the health monitors. As he opened his eyes, the first thing, well person he saw was arguably his favourite person in all the world, his jiji, the old man Hokage.

"Naruto, how are you doing? You had us worried for a moment back there" He said with the kindly smile that the blond child adored so much.

"I'm fine jiji, never better he he" He responded with his trademark goofy grin.

"Well that's good"

"Jiji, when will I be able to leave?" Naruto asked as he looked around him as if ready to spring and run at any time.

"The doctor said that you were clear to go when you woke up."

As soon as he heard that, Naruto leaped to his feet and dashed out the door, eager to leave the hospital as soon as possible.

Hiruzen watched him run, chuckling and slowly shaking his head at the boy's antics.

'That boy will be the death of me, but I wouldn't have it any other way'

As he ran, Naruto thought about the dream that he had about the creature living in the sewer, the sheer evil that he could feel coming of the being still gave him shivers, it had just felt so real so… oppressive.

As he rounded a corner, ignoring the glares and for some disappointed looks, he literally ran into the hokage who had caught up to him and was waiting for him.

Before he could fall, he felt the arms of his jiji wrap around his shoulders and pull him in a comforting embrace.

"How about we visit Ichiraku to celebrate your birthday?"

Naruto stilled and looked up to Hiruzen, eyes filled with hope.

"Really, Jiji?"

The hokage responded with a nod and a small smile while inwardly cringing at the loss of weight his wallet was about to experience.

Overcome with happiness, the six-year-old took Sarutobi's hand and started dragging him towards their favourite ramen bar.

However, underneath that cheerful exterior, Naruto was debating telling his Jiji about his dream, he didn't want to say anything that could cause his most precious person to hate him so he decided to keep it a secret for now.

All thoughts of the creature were quickly forgotten as soon as they arrived at Ichiraku.

Back behind the gate, the creature's second eye crimson opened and its owner began chuckling and in its deep voice, it said:

"Well isn't this an interesting development, I can't wait for what this will bring!"
