Pairing: Naruto/FemKyuubi(... sorta)
Warning: None
Do you ever feel like breaking down?
"I can't take it anymore... I don't know how much longer I can live with the abuse," Naruto said sadly.
Do you ever feel out of place?
To have her freedom stripped from her even though she knew that she had done nothing wrong. The Kyuubi no Kitsune in her human form cried silently in her cage.
Like somehow you just don't belong
And no one understands you
Naruto never felt that he truly belonged in the village that had been his home for nearly 13 years. In fact, not a single person had ever made him feel loved or understood.
Do you ever wanna run away?
Do you lock yourself in your room?
With the radio on, turned up so loud
That no one hears you screaming
Kyuubi wanted to be free, to be free and love and be loved in return. The seal, her prison, was the only thing that stood in her way and because of that she couldn't stop herself from releasing an anguished scream of defeat.
No you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels alright
You don't know what it's like to be like me
Naruto was sick of the people who pretended to know how he felt but in the end they didn't have a clue. No one knows what it's like when everything feels wrong and each breath feels like a mistake... they just don't know.
To be hurt, to feel lost, to be left out in the dark
To be kicked, when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
Since being sealed the Kyuubi has been feeling certain changes in herself. She started to develop feelings, feelings that shook her to her very core. She had never felt so alone, so cold, or so unloved...
To be on the edge of breaking down
When no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life
Naruto had never felt closer to breaking down than when he was recovering from a beating, physical or mental, by either the villagers or his fellow ninja. They don't know what it's like to have no one on your side.
Do you wanna be somebody else?
Are you sick of feeling so left out?
Are you desperate to find something more
Before your life is over?
With the way that emotions washed over her, Kyuubi found herself wishing that she were someone different, someone free, someone loved. She didn't want to just live forever, she wanted to be able to live with others forever.
Are you stuck inside a world you hate?
Are you sick of everyone around?
With the big fake smiles and stupid lies
While deep inside you're bleeding
He was sick of wearing the mask of the class clown, the fool, the pariah! Uzumaki Naruto was sick and tired of everything around him, he wanted somebody, anybody to heal his unseen wounds!
No you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels alright
You don't know what it's like to be like me
The foolish humans could never understand the pain that she and her container felt everyday and every night. Kyuubi knew that she would have to save him and in turn hope that she would be saved by him.
To be hurt, to feel lost, to be left out in the dark
To be kicked, when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
Naruto didn't know why, but he had been drawn into his mindscape. He had been brought directly to the thing that had led to his life being the way it was, the Kyuubi no Kitsune. Needing to vent, he started verbally assaulting the huge metal gates in front of him.
To be on the edge of breaking down
When no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life
Kyuubi was trying to stay as far away from the metal gates as possible, but no matter what she did Naruto's words continued to pierce her in a way that no blade could. She couldn't help the tears that poured down her face nor the sobs and whimpers that left her mouth.
No one ever lies straight to your face
And no one ever stabbed you in the back
You might think I'm happy but I'm not gonna be okay
Naruto was about to continue his rant when he heard the faints signs of a girl crying, he could never bring himself to refuse a damsel in distress. He got right up to the bars of the seal and tried to look through the thick shadows, what he found shocked him beyond words...
Everybody always gave you what you wanted
You never had to work it was always there
You don't know what it's like, what it's like
Kyuubi was stunned when the shadows suddenly cleared up and she was face to face with her container. She saw all of the pain and sorrow in his clear blue eyes and hoped that he could see hers, she hoped with all her heart.
To be hurt, to feel lost, to be left out in the dark
To be kicked, when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
Naruto was staring into the soulful crimson eyes of a beautiful red-headed girl, for some reason he felt a familiarity in her eyes. The Kyuubi couldn't possibly understand him, could she? After all she's still a demon, right?
To be on the edge of breaking down
When no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Kyuubi could see the confusion in his eyes and decided that she needed to show him that there is at least one soul in this world that understood him. She was at a loss though, she wasn't allowed to cross the threshold of the seal... she was going to lose him.
To be hurt, to feel lost, to be left out in the dark
To be kicked, when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
Naruto watched as the Kyuubi started to cry. He couldn't let anyone suffer, not anymore, so he crossed the threshold and wrapped his arms around the poor fox girl, just now noticing that she was completely naked. He couldn't care less about her nudity, all he knew was that someone was suffering and that's good enough for him.
To be on the edge of breaking down
When no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Kyuubi's eyes suddenly shot open at the contact that she was now feeling, his touch was like electricity on her skin. She knew that she would give up her eternal life if only to feel his touch and warm heart again. "I think I love you, Uzumaki Naruto..."
Welcome to my life
Welcome to my life
Welcome to my life
Naruto pulled away from the Kyuubi slightly and let a smile creep onto his face as he suddenly captured her lips in a kiss. He knew she was caught off guard by his action and in response to her bewildered look he simply said,"Welcome to my life, Kyuubi-chan."
A/N: This is my first update in a long ass time... I'm sorry for the wait, but the real world is starting to catch up to me. This week is gonna be jam-packed with updates(hopefully) so keep on the look-out. As for the fans of Soaring Heavens M and Naruko Dances with the Kyuubi, they might have to wait a bit for an update but I WILL get a few more chapters out before I leave!
