KZD: I do not own Kingdom Hearts or anything Naruto related.

Speech: "Normal"

"Normal/Human thinking."

"Kyuubi talking."

"Kyuubi thinking."

Kyuubi couldn't believe what was happening to him. He had finally acquired a body to serve as his new host for a short time. But this, this was just ridiculous. The great demon would have never imagined himself ever being dragged around by some blue haired vixen.

He looked around the dingy walls of the fallen castle that was her supposed home. Multiple cracks scraped along its edges almost like a creature like himself had been the one to completely trash the place. The halls were completely empty and void of any light other then the small fire ball that Aqua held in her free hand. The other grasp firmly against the demons wrist.

His senses are on full alert as they traveled up a few column stairs to the bedroom floors of the castles. Every creek that their feet made against the wooden stair case mad his body slightly jump and his fur tipped ears twitch in irritation. Aqua laughed slightly as she felt his body tremble while leading him.

"Is the big bad fox afraid of an abandoned castle?" She quickly received a snarl as a response as his red eyes burned a hole in the back of her head.

"Don't be foolish, there's just a lot of darkness in this world and it's making me uncomfortable. Besides aren't you the one who is afraid? You haven't let go of me since we entered."

Upon realizing this Aqua's face gave off a slight shade of red. She quickly released the demons hand and was grateful that she has her back turned to him. The blue haired women was so caught up with her new circumstances that she had lost track of her own physical actions.

"We're here." They stopped in front of a mahogany wooden door. Unlike the rest of the giant home, it had few scratch marks on its brown surface but was completely intact for the most part. She reached for the golden door handle and quickly opened it to the surprisingly small bedroom.

Everything felt cramped inside to Kyuubi, almost like he was back in that sewer his previous jinchuriki called a seal. Even so, just being in the small room gave the demon some sort of security from all the bad vibes he's been receiving from the castle so far. Book shelves and desks took up the majority of the space. A single window made up an entire wall and a telescope was place by it used for star gazing. The last thing the for took any notice was the single twin sized bed pressed up against the window wall. The demon wasn't impressed but its still a lot better then most conditions he's had to deal with or have to suffer seeing others have to live.

"Just wait here for a bit. I'll see if I can find you something to wear." The keyblade master swiftly made her way over to a closet that was emended into the West side of the room.

Bored out of his mind, the kitsune decided to snoop around. He looked around in the desk first. He opened one of the cabinets and was kindly greeted by one of his enemies, paperwork. He growled as he looked through the numerous incomplete math problems and ingredient potion equations. At least there's one think he and Ven had in common in procrastinating when it came to paperwork of all things. His eye twitched at the though of the giant mess waiting for him at home down below. His own personal hell.

He shivered slightly before continuing while listening in on the blue haired vixen mumbling silent curses about the clothes in the closet. It sounded like their wasn't much variety or to small for his build. He chuckled at her frustration.

"Having a little trouble their Vixen? I could go nude to other worlds no problem. I feel freer that way anyway." He peaked over his shoulders with a sideways smirk to see the females body stiffen sharply and nearly drop the set of clothes she already had on hand. Aqua pinched the bridge of her nose as she tried to push away the questionable images that flashed through her mind.

"I can't find anything here for you then we'll just go to Terra's room to look. If not then you'll just have to wear the full armor suit for a while." The demon blinked a few times before his eyes went curiously to the piece of metal that had been sitting perfectly on his left shoulder. He had completely forgotten about the thing and gave it a quick flick with clawed fingers cherishing the sound of the ding it made.

"Here try this on." She tossed what she had to the demon fox who wasn't paying attention, and the shirt landed lazily on top of his head. The sudden action made him jump slightly and furiously remove the cloth from his head and examine it.

"I'll be outside. Just tell what does or doesn't fit when your done and we'll work from there." She was about to leave when she saw the helpless look on the demon boys face. He turned the shirt in may directions not knowing how exactly how to put it on and only becoming more desperately confused.

"You got to be kidding me." Sure she would admit that seeing the demon completely was mildly amusing but he had to know how to put on a shirt. She waited a minute just to see what he does until he looks up back at her with a sheepish grin and a small whine.

"I'm normally use to traditional robes." He said as he pinched the fabric between his fingers. "Which hole do I put my head in?"

This was beyond ridicules that the demon didn't now how to put on a simple shirt. Aqua walked over and grabbed the cloth from his clawed hands in slight annoyance as he looked at her with seemingly innocent eyes that had a slight twinkle of mischievous intent. She let out a sigh.

"Arms up, armor off." He obeyed willing and place the armor piece on the counter before raising his arms to their full length. It was only now did the keyblade master realize that her friends body was now taller then herself.

Aqua reached upward on her toes to reach the demons arms and put them through the right sleeves of the shirt. All the while being very conscious of how close she was to the kitsune. She could easily feel the excess heat that radiated from his bare skin even if their bodies still had some significant distance from each other.

The blue haired women bit down on the insides of her mouth doing her best to ignore the demons hot breath as he breathed heavily near the nape of her neck as she just got his arms threw the shirt. Pulling down the black shirt, the demons collar made it difficult to get it past his neck. With a little force and a small growl of disproval, Aqua was able to pull it down only for the shirt to come down to his mid rift and strain against the demons muscles.

"Can't breath."

"Just relax and give it a while and it should stretch out with time." She pat his harden chest. Her hand stayed a little longer then it should have and the fox smirked.

"Enjoying yourself my master." He said lowly with a growl that imitated itself as a deep purr. The blond fox man laughed as the females face became a similar shade to the color of his own eyes. Aqua turned away from him as he continued to chuckle, "Isn't lust a part of human nature. And the both of us, being deprived of any contact can drive any person mad just to feel something. Just remember the contract, as long as this infernal thing is attached to me, you may do as you please with me." He said the last part with a sideways smile.

Everything about this was completely wrong for her . This was Ventus standing in front of her, or his body at least. The Kyuubi was defiantly provocative and she had a bad feeling that the bijuu is going to milk this deal they've made for as long as possible. Aqua could only imagine though how serious her situation will become when he fulfilled his end of the blood bargain. Thinking about it made her sick.

"Got anything else?" That's right, she still had to properly dress the fox, and she highly doubted that and of Ven's old pants would fit him.

"Lets check Terra's room. Something has to fit there." Kyuubi let out a small hum and grabbed his shoulder piece and following the blue haired vixen out of the room to the next which wasn't to far away just simply down the blackened hall.

He refused to go in there. Didn't the vixen sense or even smell all the damnable darkness that just radiating off of this one room? Sometimes the demon really hated his enhanced physical attributes in being an animal. Staying still is difficult and things like the eerie silence of darkness made him jumpy.

"Come on Vixen hurry up already." He leaned back against the door frame and lost his balance as he fell through with a small cry.

"What are you ding on the floor?" Aqua had opened the door the moment he decided to relax. He looked up at her with his eyes narrowing into a small glare. It was difficult to actual see her with the lack of light other then her deep blue eyes that seemed to glow in the blackness of this pathetic world.

"I thought it would make me a sandwich."

"Get up. I found a few things but I'm going to have to fix them first." She walked right over him and moved to a different part of the castle. Kyuubi scrambled to get of as she walked off but quickly lost track of where the keyblade master was with the limited visibility.

"Damn she moves fast." He stopped in his tracks and inhaled a deep breath and waited a few seconds before exhaling. He let out a groan as he walked a few more doors down before halting in front of an open one.

Aqua sat on the edge of her bed with a needle and thread that she carefully laced the fabric that she found in Terra's room to fit her new companion. Little flames from candles gave off what little light they could so that she can see her own handy work only to interrupted by the kitsune.

"Don't run off like that. Your lucky I have your scent." Aqua nearly missed a stitch.

"How do you-"

"That doesn't matter." She rolled her eyes at the bijuu king who sat next to her on the plush bed. A little too comfortable for him. He preferred a firm mattress.

He watch her work for a while before he stated to get antsy again with just waiting. Kyuubi's head tilted to the side trying to find anything interesting and focused near one of the candles where a variety a pictures were set up neatly.

One that particularly caught his gaze. There are four people close together all smiling happily like one big happy family. He quickly recognized two of them being the blue haired vixen and his current container. Her arms were around his torso who smiled brightly while a strong looking brunet patted the boys spiky blond locks and an older looking gentlemen stood a little to the side with a small grin of his own wearing more tradition robes and with multiple scars on his older looking face.

It sort of reminded the demon of a picture that his former jailor always kept in his apartment and would constantly stare at. Except not everyone was happy in that photo. The hyper active blond and stupid Uchiha glared at each other in that old picture while their perverted teacher patted them on the head with his one visible eye happily closed, and a pink haired banshee was the only one who posed for the camera that day.

His container had become so obsessed with that one picture after his so called friend left their team. The blond would always talk to it right before he left for a mission and would stared at it for a while each night before he fell asleep. At first Kyuubi felt some sorrow for his container but it was soon replace with rage as his container could never come to the realization that the one person who he considered to be his brother was never going to come back unless it was in a coffin.

"I'm finished so you can stop growling." He snapped out of his memory and looked at her in minor surprise. Had he been growling? He didn't notice.

"It wasn't towards you."

"Try these." The demon smiled at her with his fangs pointing out of his blacken lips as she handed him the set. "And no help this time."

"You're no fun." Aqua left the room to wait outside for the demon to get dressed.

These threads were beyond what the demon was normally use to wearing. Possibly even a bit on the itchy side. He put on a long dark red sleeveless zipper jacket that parted slightly at the bottom to reveal minor part of his stomach. He removed the charred cargo pants he wore, and was slowly falling apart, and replace them with loose black jeans with a belt that connected it to some torn up fabric attached to it that feel over to past his thighs that is black on the top and red inwards. He guessed he liked it. It made him look like he still had his tails on the outside. He's still bare foot but he like it better that way. It made him feel more connected to the ground and free.

"You done yet?" Aqua called from outside.

"Yeah." She came back into the moderately sized bedroom in checked him over for any major flaws in the clothing. "Everything fits right?"

"For the most part." The demon sighed while fiddling with the red star charm that dangled loosely from his neck unlike his collar. He soon grabbed the lonely armor piece that sat on the bed and attached it back on to his left shoulder. Its added weight greeting him instantly.

"Then we can get going." She said while blowing out the lights in the room. The kitsune silently cheered at this. The sooner they got of this godforsaken rock the sooner he could relax and try to find a way to brutally kill Madara.

It didn't take long for them to get outside once more to the broken compound. Aqua activated the switch on her armor and appeared in its full suit in a quick second. Kyuubi did the same and was engulfed in the transforming light. His body felt like it doubled in weight with the added layer of protection the suit gave and he was less then happy with this. At least from the females point a view the only thing that changed about Ven's armor is its size adjustment for the demon.

Aqua was about to summon her glider when a small thought crossed her. When the fox fought her masters spirit he never used a keyblade, but brut force instead.

"Kyuubi, can you even use the keyblade?" The nine tailed bijuu opened his mouth to say something only to close it. He's actually made no attempt to summon one or his new containers so far so he couldn't really answer that question.

He extended his right metal hand and waited for anything to happen. But nothing did. Frustrated he waved his arm up and down making the armor clank with each fast movement.

"Come on Kit, let me use you fucking keyblade!" He roared and nearly jumped at the sound of his own voice, it echoing from inside the protective body suit.

Aqua stated to laugh at the demons frustration. There is no possible way a keyblade would ever answer the call to a constantly hate filled demon.

"Give me a second, I'm going to have a little chat with your friend." He dropped to the floor and sat cross-legged. Taking a deep breath he entered the contours of his shared mind and heart.

Crimson eyes opened up, and his view of the world changed as the fox demon was once again in his two tailed state as a small red ball of fur. Back in the station of awaking he corked his head back and forth looking for the owner of the body he is currently borrowing.

"Oi Kit! Where are you?" He received a rude awaking when something grabbed him roughly by one of his tails and hoisted the demon up in the air and come in contact fit fairly angry blue eyes.

"What is wrong with you!"

"Hey put me down! I'm not answering anything until then." Ven increased his grip on the fox's tail who let out a hiss of pain before he realized what he was doing and dropped the small demonic animal.

"I'm sorry, but why did you have to go and do that?"

"Do what exactly? You're going to have to be more specific then that boy." Kyuubi sneered as he petted his bruised tail. "No hate in his heart my ass."

"You know," he hesitated, "with Aqua." Kyuubi chuckled as he understood what Ventus meant.

"What's wrong? Jealous that I'm having a little fun with your friend?"

"What, no! That's not it at all. I just-"

"Look kit if I were you, I'd enjoy the ride. And don't worry about the little vixen that you care for so much. I don't plan on harming her in anyway. I just enjoy seeing human reactions." He said while finish grooming his tail. The demon padded over to Ven on all fours before jumping up on top of his shoulder.

"Now since you busted my tail, I think that it's only fair that you do something for me." Ven let out a sigh as the fox played out the guilt card on him.

"What else could you possibly want? You already have my body."

"Yes, but I still don't have your full cooperation." The blond raised a questioning brow to the devil that sat on his shoulder. "Your keyblade."

"No way."

"Normally I wouldn't care for such a thing, but I need it if we both want to travel with Aqua considering she is the one in charge here." Ven became silent as he tried to figure out what was best, not entirely confident in freely giving a demon a weapon that can make or undo any lock or seal.

"Fine." The fox's lips curled in a crooked smile as he jumped off from his perch.

"Now was that so hard?" A long silence fell over them as Ven stared down at the fox with a frown that made the small demons ears fall flat to the back of his head. At least his eyes have some life in them now. "Ok, how about this? You lend me your keyblade for a bit and I'll let you look at my memories. It'll keep you entertained."

Kyuubi snapped his claws together and branching stairs appeared one by one on the outskirts of the mural. "I wouldn't bother with the ones of the past hundred years or so, since they mostly consist of me sleeping in a dark dirty cage in some poor fools stomach."

"Fair enough. It does get kind of boring staying here by myself." Ven extended his arm in a flash his keyblade, wayward wind, appeared. He got down on one knee and presented to the demon. Kyuubi seized hold of it and everything around the fox slowly stated to dematerialize.

Kyuubi snapped his eyes open and jumped up from his sitting position. He startled Aqua, who was flipping through first few pages of the ancient text that Yen Sid had given her. Some of it was difficult to decipher so she was glad that Kyuubi finally came around after just a few moments and quickly got rid of the book by putting a quick spell on it to make it smaller and pocket it.

"That was fast."

"The surprising is that I didn't have to threaten to mutilate his body."

"Like I would have let you." The fox extended his hand this time and instantly, Ven's keyblade appeared without any trouble.

"Jezz, how the hell did the Kit hold this damn thing?" Kyuubi played with not completely confused by the blades unique reverse grip.

"You're not the only one who still questions that." Stormfall answered its masters call and Aqua tossed it into the air so that it can transform. Her glider gently floated to her side as she mounted on to it.

He followed her example and tossed Wayward wind into the air and it came back changed into some skateboard like hovercraft. He jumped up on it stumbling slightly before regain his balance on the board

"Got it?"

"It's not that hard. Don't see what those other two were whining about."

"Lets get going."

"Where are we headed anyway?"

"Well, neither of us have been performing at our best so I think I know the ideal place for some quick training to get back into sync."

"Lead the way." She's right. It would be in his best interest to get a better feel of the mechanics of his new host and to properly learn how to use his strange keyblade. Aqua summoned a portal to enter the Lanes in Between and they were off leaving the destroyed world behind.

The sound of metal clashed and the roar of the crowed gave an uplifting air of excitement. Warriors came from all the corners of their world to prove their steel at the chance of being worthy of being a hero.

Aqua and Kyuubi walked side by side as the entered through the large coliseum into what looked like a lobby where a variety of trophies are proudly displayed for all. On a half pillar a small goat man is intently polishing a frame that read RULES.

"Ugh why are we in Greece? Some of the most ignorant Gods live here."

"Trust me its one of the best places to get a good warm up. I'm surprised you even know where we are."

"I've been alive long enough to know many things and that includes the existence of other worlds."

"Well, keep quiet about that. Just because you know doesn't mean others have to or need to."

"Don't need to tell me twice." The demon scoffed. They walked up to the portly satyr who was doing a once over of his and work and to preoccupied to even notice the twosome.

"Excuse me."

"You now the rules, show me a pass or move that pillar over there and you can enter in the games." He said without turning around, only motioning one fat arm over to what looked more like a two ton rock sitting by itself over to the side where some of the trophies are.

Aqua shrugged her shoulder and the fox rolled his eyes in return. Kyuubi walked behind the giant stone and place his foot on the side of it. Effortlessly, he shoved it with the heel of his bare feet causing it to crash into the wall.

"Damn it Kyuubi! To much." Aqua though as she saw the satyr jump from his perch in surprise of the sudden crashing sound.

"Hey what the big idea huh! This place just got remodeled."

"Oh did I do that? Sorry." The dust stated to clear and the only thing left over was a gaping wall and pieces of debris from the heavy stone.

"He sweet cheeks control your boyfriend!"

"He's not my-"

"Hold it. Do I know you from somewhere because I never forget a dame?" Kyuubi walked back over to Aqua with his always so irritable expression on his face as he stared down at goat.

"That's because you do Phil." The old goat eyes snapped open as he realized who was standing in front of him.

"Aqua, it's you! Sorry about not recognizing yah there. After all its been, like what, ten years?"

"More like twelve."

"And you haven't aged a bit. And you," He finally got to the demon that was glaring daggers at him but didn't seem to mind or notice, "you're Ventus. Boy did the years take their toll on you."

Aqua could see the fox on the edge to retaliate against his mistaken identify, and quickly stepped on his bare foot causing a suppressed whine to emanated from the kitsune.

"So has the old champion come back to regain her glory? Because I got a say, you got some stiff competition ahead of yah."

"Actual that is why we are here."

"Perfect!" Phil walked over to where the rules list is and pick up a couple of forms, "We were looking for two more people to have a full bracket." He handed the clip board to the fox boy who stated to look over it.

"The tournament right now is consist of two blocks the West and East both having one slot open. Who ever is the winner in each block will have to face each other in the finals. Do I have to go over the rules?" Kyuubi signed his name as Ventus for the West block with the quill attached to the clip board not even bothering to look over who else has entered before handing it over to Aqua.

"Ven here might need a refresher." Kyuubi looked at the female like he was about to strangle someone just because he really didn't want to listen to the goat. She let out a hum to hide her laugh as she went on to sign her own name on the sheet and handed it back to Phil

"All right, listen up because I'm only going to say this once. They're only three basic rules to follow. The first is no killing anyone that isn't one of those creepy heartless."

"Two, there is no shame in throwing in the towel."

"Three, no watching other participants matches in-between your own."

"Four, have fun."

"You just said that there were only three."

"Finished." The bluenette said before the kitsune could pick a fight with the small satyr.

"The first match don't start for a little bit. So how life? Ever find Terra? People here still talk about him."

"It's complicated. I'd rather not talk about it."

"Don't worry I get it."

"Anyway where's Hercules, is he entering?"

"Herc? He went off to do a couple of errands for his father and won't be back for some time."

"And Zack?"

"Hmm?" Phil crossed his arms over his small chest in thought. Its been a while since heard that name. "Oh that kid, I don't really no what happened to him. He just up and vanished. Poof!" At his last word a bell chimed rang out in the coliseum.

"That's both your cues. Just go down the hall and," he checked the paper work, "Aqua you go right and Ven go left." They nodded their heads and proceed to the entrance.

"See you at the finals." She said with a smile. Kyuubi gave a brash huff and a know it all grin.

"Of coarse." The fox motioned to follow her but was held back by the old goat tugging at his pants for his attention.

"Hold it right their buddy, just a word of caution." Kyuubi rolled his eyes. If anything he was the most dangerous thin here. "There's this new guy in your cell block that just showed up a few days ago and has been sweeping the competition since, he could even give Herc a run for his money."

"So what do you want me to do about it?" He asked coldly. The fox just wanted to fight already and get out some of his pent up aggression.

"If you can try to knock him down a few pegs, or at least make him stop rhyming in every sentence he speaks. It kind of getting on everyone's nerves."

"Easy enough."

"Thanks and good luck." Kyuubi turned end entered the hallway to the arena and waited for his containers name to be called.

"To easy." Kyuubi sighed as he easily cut through another heartless with a quick swipe of Wayward Wind. He was starting to get the feel for the reverse grip handle of the strange blade. It was about keeping you body movements loose and taking quick short strikes. It still felt awkward for him though since the demon is so use to brute force and fighting things head on.

He went back inside the training room to wait. He found weird that there were no other people, or at least humans, waiting with him. Not to mention the only thing that he's fought is one heartless wave after another. The fox wondered if the people that worked here actual trapped the black creatures to be used as punching bags for the main event.

"Hmm... I wonder how the Vixen is holding up?" He'd be lying if he wasn't the slightest bit curious. The though of possibly fighting her in the final round made him excited. To get through the rounds as fast as possible at the chance of playing with the female his current goal.

"Ventus!" The announcer called, "You're up next."

"Well, that was fast." He didn't have much time to actual relax his body. He got up and stretched before heading to the iron bar gate that stated to slowly rise. Kyuubi could see that Phil is in the middle of the arena making the announcement for the next match to the crowed that gathered in the stands.

"Get ready for this one folks, the semi-final round is about to begin and the winner will go on the face the winner of the East cell block!" The crowed cheered in excitement awaiting for the next round.

"First off we have Ventus!" Kyuubi steeped out of the shadows and only received a few cheers from the crowed. He didn't really care what they though of him, he was only there for some quick training. He walked over to where Phil stood and looked over to the opposite gate that stated to rise. It was about time that he fought something else that wasn't just a shadow but an actual person.

"And his opponent the ever crowed pleaser," The figure steeped out from his holding pen and Kyuubi's jaw nearly hit the floor as he stared at his opponent. The moment the crowed saw him they erupted in a deafening roar. He walked out wearing his usual white anbu armor strapped to his dark skin and his white haired pulled back and rapped up with his headband and multiple swords strapped to his sides and back. He waved at the crowed with a large smile plastered on his face as he walked up to Kyuubi and Phil.

"Killer Bee!"

KZD: Yup thats right B is still alive people!

Kyuubi: SHOOT ME NOW! AIM FOR THE CHEAP SEATS!

KZD: Calm down you won't be that badly beaten. As always guys R&R.
