Chapter 7: The Encounter

DREAM

I was in a white room. It was so plain. Nothing in there. No color. Or somebody. I was alone.

Where am I?

Everything seems to stretch on forever. I had a sudden urge to run. Run somwhere. I had to get out of here! I began running straight. The walls keep getting further away, instead of closer.

What the hell is this place?

I start running faster, desperate to find an exit. Nothing. I run for ten minutes. Still nothing. I stop where I am giving up hope.

"Where am I?!", I scream.

Then, I noticed something,or rather someone standing on the left side of me.

"Oi," I say.

I ran up to them. There was at least ten feet of space between us.

"H-Hi-Hi," I friendly greeted.

The person turned around. I know this person!

"Hello.

"I...Uh...was won..."

I stopped and bowed in respect. I'm kind of forget since I don't do it with Tou-san.

"Forgive me, Hokage-sama. I'm just so use to not having to bow to my Otou-san who is currently the Hokage."

"Your Otou-san must be really powerful."

"Yes, Hokage-sama, he is."

"What is that you wanted to ask me?"

"I, uh, wanted to know how to get out of here."

"You can't leave this place, until you come what you were looking for,or somebody wakes you up."

"But, sir, I have nothing to be looking for, I was upset that my Otou-san didn't tell me about what's inside me and why the village hates me. Then, I figured it out why and I went home and took a nap. This may sound a little strange, but Hokage-sama why are you in my dream?"

"I'm going to tell you the truth of what happened that night."

"What night, Hokage-sama?"

"The night of the Kyuubi attack. 30 years...

Dang, long time. Same age Tou-san is.

"...ago, Kyuubi had broken the seal to their host and came out.

"Who was the host, Hokage-sama?"

"For now, I'll keep it simple. Kyuubi was free and was tearing through Konaha."

I gasped. Must have been scary.

"We knew we couldn't beat it, so I made a sacrifice."

"You sealed Kyuubi away in my Otou-san and you died doing it?"

"Yes."

"But why my Otou-san?"

"I'm keeping it basic for now."

"Oh."

Then, the floor opened up and i fell through.

"Ahh!"

I landed on a hard floor.

"Ow."

I stood up. There was floating chakra throughout the home. Then, I heard a deep voice.

"Oh no," said the voice.

I jumped. I'm scared. Where did that come from?

Then, I heard the voice roar. I turned around to see tall, metal black bars. On the inside of the bars, was the Kyuubi. I gasped.

"You can't be my host."

"Host? I am?!"

This thing is so evil and scary.

How did I get stuck with the Kyuubi?

"A little brat like you?"

"I can easily take over youtmr body."

Then, I felt a sharp pain in my stomach. I fell to my knees holding my stomach.

"Stop,please."

I could hear the bars rattiling. That can't be good.

"Ha, my previous host was much stronger than this. Its not worth it."

The pain went away. I sighed in relief.

"You're talking about my Otou-san."

"Yeah, him. He was stronger."

"Then, why did you transfer yourself over to me?!"

"Thought you would be stronger."

"I will be stronger! You're making my life a living hell! People are constantly calling me names and beating on me, like a drum! So, you better stay put, and don't give any signs that you're in me!"

It silent.

Thought so.

"Now send, me bach where I belong."

It growled, which scared me.

"Please, I need to get back home."

"You have a long way to go,brat."

Then, I appeared in my room.

"Whoa."

"Did you sleep well."

I heard Tou-san's voice.

"Ahh! Why is everyone sneaking up on me?!"

"What are you talking about, Atsuko."

"Nothing. Gomenai, Tou-san."

"For what?"

"I didn't mean to yell at you, this afternoon. And for skipping class today."

"There's nothing for you to be sorry for. I'm the one who should be sorry. The reason I didn't tell you because, I wanted you to have a normal childhood, instead of having everybody hate you, like they did me."

"Tou-san..."

"Okay, enough of that, what do you want to know? I'll be completely honest right now."

"Okay, who was the Kyuubi's previous host?"

"Atsuko, how did you know."

"Lets just say, dreams come true. Or did come true."

"Alright, it was my Okaa-san."

I sat up in my bed quickly, surprised.

"She was?"

"Yes, and when she was giving birth to me, the seal weakened, and Kyuubi escaped."

"That's when it attacked the village.

"Yes."

"But that still doesn't explain. With did the Yondaime Hokage sealed Kyuubi away in you."

"Because he trusted me."

"Why? Did he choose you? Did he find you at the hospital with high amounts of chakra?"

"No, because he's my Otou-san."

"What?!"

"He's my Otou-san. He died putting the Kyuubi in me. To protect the village."

I sat there. Shocked out my shorts. I just had a talk with the Hokage...no my Oji-san, and I didn't know who he was. I feel bad.

"I can't see him, can I?"

"No."

But I just did.

"Does Nii-san know?"

"Yes, he does. I told him a couple of years ago."

"Oh. I..."

"Didn't you ever stop to think why you kind of looked like the Yondaime Hokage."

"I only thought there are a lot of people in this world."

He chuckled.

"When did you find out, Tou-san?"

"When I was 15, and he appeared in a drwam of mines."

Just like me.

"And you never considered you looked like the Yondaime Hokage?"

"Nope."

I laughed softly.

Well, I have some new bragging rights!

"Okay, are you hungry, dinner's done."

"No, my stomach hurts real bad, and I'm really tired. I think I'll past."

"Okay, well I'll let you sleep."

"Good night, Tou-san."

"Good night, Atsuko."

He got up from his chair and left the room. I laid back down and rolled over on my stomach. I feel like I'm about to puke. What Kyuubi did, hurt my stomach. I went to sleep again only to have the dream, again.
