Chapter 24 Tsunade
"So you finally took over control." said Tsunade as she crossed her arms while she glared at Sasuke from the other side of reinforced glass.
"Yes." said Sasuke
"So are you finally going to kill me?" asked Tsunade
"No…I still need you to finish your work." Said Sasuke
"I figured." said Tsunade as she walked toward a small table and poured herself a glass of water
"In fact I am adding a task." said Sasuke
"I still haven't finished the task that Kabuto gave me." said Tsunade
Flashback
"Shizune get out of here." ordered Tsunade as she stood behind her Hokage desk waiting for the wolves to come crashing though her door.
"Lady Tsunade please come with me." pleaded Shizune as Tsunade slowly shook her head.
"They would track me down." thought Tsunade "They always know when the leader is missing but Shizune can escape."
"Go." Said Tsunade as Shizune lowered her head before heading down a secret tunnel leading to a tunnel network that ran all over the leaf. Slowly Tsunde reached for a glass of shake she downed the drink just as the door came crashing down as a large number of wolves and big cats stormed the room. She recognized every single one of them, they where members of her ninja core now turned into half human creatures.
"Come to finish the job." said Tsunade as she stood her ground. However suddenly a large panther man walked into the room, her eyes widened as she looked into the Sharingan eyes.
"No…you have a job to do for us." said Sasuke with a grin.
End Flashback
"I have a more pressing task for you." said Sasuke "A war has broken out between the wolves and the cats."
"Well I hope you get your furry tails kicked by the wolves." yelled Tsunade
"You want to save lives don't you." said Sasuke as Tsunade stopped yelling and instead glared at him. "That is why you decided to help Kabuto."
Flashback
"How the mighty have fallen." Said Kabuto as he walked out of the darkness and toward the prison cell where the mighty Tsunade sat with her arms bonded and chakra surprising seal on her chest.
"I had a feeling you where behind this you fucking snake." said Tsunade
"Please I am only partly behind this." said Kabuto as he pushed up his glasses "You can thank Orochimaru for creating the cattiest that started the transformation."
"What?" asked Tsunade "This isn't a virus?"
"In a way." said Kabuto "The virus spread long ago. See the base of the virus is the chakra of a demon."
"The Kyuubi?" asked Tsunade
"Correct it is present in any demon chakra, now humans absorbed the chakra and it stays in their bodies for decades without harm." said Kabuto "In fact without the cattiest within two generations the virus will be gone. However when you add the cattiest to the virus you get…well you saw the results."
"Those things." Said Tsunade
"Yes, they are the perfect soldiers." said Kabuto "Strength of animals and the minds of humans. They may not be able to do many justus but with their raw power it doesn't matter and thanks to Orochimaru they are easy to control. However there is one problem."
"What?" asked Tsunade
"Sadly over time their minds become too animalist and they can't be controlled." Said Kabuto
"Good then maybe they will rip you apart." said Tsunade
"Maybe but if that happens then they will turn on each other." said Kabuto "Tell me Lady Tsunade do you want your own villagers eating each other?"
"No." growled Tsunade
"Then you will help me." said Kabuto "If you don't then within a few years they will be killing and eating each other. You can help stop that from happening and give them lives."
"Lives as animals." said Tsunade
"But lives no less." said Kabuto "Now Tsunade are you going to help me."
End Flashback
"You desided to help Kabuto inorder to save people I am only telling you to do the same." Said Sasuke
"Well things have changed over the years I have been locked up in this place." Said Tsunade
"Yes, you figured out that you needed Naruto's demon chakra to stabilize the mind." Said Sasuke "Then there is the fact you changed yourself."
Flashback
Tsunade sat at her lab desk looking over a different test results from the multiple of tests she had run that day alone. She looked around the room that had become her home and her workplace over the past two years. Over the years apart from the small staff which supplied her with food and materials for the tests only Kaubto and Sasuke where the only ones to come to vistit her. However that was about to change, though years of watching she found the one weakness in the system holding her in, strangely it was the front door. Over the door was a seal that would only open for Kabuto or an infected person. She had learned a while ago how to control the transformation to pick what a person becomes and she knew she could keep her human mind now the only question was which one to pick for her escape. A big cat meant she could overpower the cats which bring in her food and her bodies for testing, a wolf meant she could make a break for it and disappear into the woods. Finally she made her pick, it was the only way Naruto would run away from a wolf or a cat but another fox he wouldn't attack.
"I am going to bed." said Tsunade as she looked toward one of the large cats standing just on the other side of the reinforced glass wall. The guard nodded as Tsunade headed toward the only side room where Tsunade had her bedroom and her bathroom. It was the only place that wasn't monitored by Kabuto's guards. Once Tsunade reached the room the door slide close locking her in. There was no time to lose as Tsunade moved toward her closet and pulled out a long needle full of a black liquid.
"Please let this work." Thought Tsunade as she pushed the needle into her arm before pushing down on the plunger pushing the liquid into her arm. Almost instantly it felt like her blood was on fire. She dropped the needle to the ground as she stumbled backwards, her head was spinning worst then the time she first got drunk as a kid. She fell backwards onto the bed as her eyes became silted.
"This hurts." Said Tsunade as she curled up into a fetal position holding her sides as a ripping sound filled the air. She winced in pain as she felt her tail bone push out into a long tail. When that pain stopped she looked toward the source of the pain only to see that her new tail was still covered with human flesh. If she didn't know what she was become she would think she was becoming a rat. Starting at the tip of the tail and rolling down fur started to appear. Snow white at the tip and blonde the rest of the way. For a moment nothing happened as Tsunade regained her footing and stood up. The moment she did she felt a paim coming from her chest. She looked down to see her already huge chest growing in size.
"Well if Jiriaya was alive he would make one of those jokes." Thought Tsunade as another ripping sound filled the air, instantly she fell to the ground as her legs gave way. Once she had regained her footing she looked toward her legs only to find that they had been reshaped into a more dog like shape. Black claws had replaced her toe nails as black fur went up to her knees.
"This is so weird." Said Tsunade as she suddenly felt hot, she didn't have to guess what was happening she knew fur was growing across her body. Black over her lower arms, white from her lips down her neck and over the front of her chest ending at her calf mussels. Blonde fur covered the rest of her body, slowly her face pushed out into a muzzle as her ears became pointed and moved to the top of her head. Finally she stood up and looked in a mirror to see that she was now a full female fox but with her cloths still on. That didn't last long as the growth sprit began, at an extremely high rate of speed her body began to grow in size and muscle weight until she finally stopped a full foot taller than where she had be original.
"Alright that is done." Thought Tsunade as she walked over to another one of her hiding spots pulling out the few paper bombs she had managed to make over the years. "Thank God I learned the key to keeping my mind. Because I will need it to get out of here, alright here I go."
End Flashback
"Becoming a fox was a bad mistake and picking the night we were holding military attack drills was also a huge mistake but you couldn't have known that." Said Sasuke "A cat would have been able to make it out but a you picked a fox."
"Naruto would have run away from a cat and his charka is all I need to find a cure." Said Tsunade
"The world is far belong your cure." said Sasuke "It's a new age, the age of cats."
"I fucking hate you." growled Tsunade
"Listen I don't need you to like me, I need to find a way to turn some of the wolves into cats." Said Sasuke
"They are wolves, you hate wolves." said Tsunade
"They have abilities I want and besides it will be shrinking their numbers down while my forces grow." explain Sasuke "In the end it will save lives. Which is what matters the most to you isn't it?"
"How do I know you will not just use it on Sakura and get her to join your harem?" asked Tsunade
"I personally haven't thought of that." Said Sasuke with a grin "She is a weak pointless little bitch that would give me nothing more than the pleasure of watching Naruto pain at the idea of her being mine…but I can get more pleasure watching his face as I kill her. Besides I already have his girlfriend Hinata as my mate…Sakura was probably the first vixen he came across and that is why he is with her nothing more."
"You still don't understand a human heart do you Sasuke." Said Tsunade
"We are animals not humans." Stated Sasuke "Will you help me save lives Tsunade."
"Fine." said Tsunade
"Good." said Sasuke "By the way, you will soon have guest."
"What do you mean?" asked Tsunade
"One of my squads caught three little foxes poking their heads out of their den." said Sasuke
"You have Naruto?" asked Tsunade
"No…not yet." said Sasuke "What we do have is Sakura's parents and their newest pup…Sakura's little sister."
"What?" asked Tsunade
"They should be here soon." said Sasuke "And if you don't do your work I will kill them…slowly."
With that Sasuke slowly turned his back to the Hokage and left her to her thoughts.
I know this chapter is short but I wanted to focus on Tsunade alone and how she became a fox. Now I have seen some reviews asking me to make this story a Naruto/Sakura/Tsunade story and all I have to say is…Hell NO. Sorry about that but that idea just creeps me out like nothing else. To me Tsunade is like Naruto's mother or even grandmother and that is just something I will never write. Sorry to those who wanted that but it isn't happening. Now Until Next time. Thanks Wilkins75
