Naruto explained Kurama why they can't be together and Kurama didn't take it well. Probably Kurama loves Naruto too much to let him go. No wonder – Kurama is with Naruto for his whole life. Naruto should've done it in better way.
Kurama is furious because his former hate has taken over him, "NARUTO!" Kurama growled. His fur was blazing with fire and his face was diabolical. Naruto turned to face Kurama and got scared by what he saw, "K-Kurama…?!" Naruto said and fell down as he walked backwards.
Naruto started to run away in the forest, "YOU WILL NEVER RUN AWAY! COME BACK AND FACE ME! NARUTOOO!" Kurama screamed at all forest as Naruto ran away, "This is not good… Kage bunshin no Jutsu!" Naruto created clones to separate in forest.
"I WILL DESTROY YOU NARUTO! AND THEN I WILL DESTROY EVERYTHING YOU KNOW!" Kurama said. Naruto kept running but soon all his clones got destroyed by fast moving Kurama. Kurama destroyed all of clones, "Not good!" Naruto though.
Before he could notice anything, Kurama rushed at the real Naruto and then through many trees until Naruto's jacket was ripped off and his back were scratched badly, "NARUTO!" Kurama disappeared and then appeared again from the other side.
Kurama was playing with Naruto like he was a ball, "Kurama..! AH!" Naruto moaned of pain as Kurama made him scars on face. Kurama was torturing Naruto for an hour until Naruto wasn't able to move himself and he was leaning by the tree, his face all covered in blood.
Kurama stood in front of Naruto as his illuminating chakra and rage was fading away. Kurama was breathing heavily and he still cried, "Well… Kurama… do you feel better…?" Naruto said with slight smile on his devastated face.
"Naruto! I… I hate you…! Who was the only one who was always with you?! I hated to be sealed in you for so long! I hated you so much but then I have realized how good you are! And you tell me that we cannot be together?! I know you for your whole life!"
Kurama cried and yelled at Naruto, "I'm sorry… Kurama…" Naruto apologized, "You are right. You were the only family as long as I didn't find friends in my life. You've became godfather to me and I think that is what Minato wanted to happen." Naruto continued.
"Maybe he wanted you to find some friend that would melt your cold heart. I think that mistake is on my side this time, Kurama. You've been gift to me I just used you like Madara did. The truth is… I love you Kurama. Can you… can you forgive me?" Naruto smiled slightly.
"Na-Naruto…" Kurama's behavior got softer and he started to make his steps towards Naruto. Naruto opened his chest for Kurama to come. His arms hurt but he opened them, "Naruto…" Kurama thought and moved faster to Naruto.
"Naruto!" Kurama screamed and jumped at Naruto's embrace giving him tight hug, "Naruto! Don't you ever leave me!" Kurama cried at Naruto's neck, "I will never leave you, Kurama" Naruto smiled.
"Do-Do you promise?! Do you promise you will never leave me?!" Kurama kept crying, "I promise" Naruto said, stroking Kurama's crimson fur, "I love you, Naruto… my dear Jinchuuriki!" Kurama said and licked Naruto's wounds that he caused to him.
Naruto smiled and kissed head of the crimson fox. He rubbed his head and Kurama was smiling and crying at the same time, "Let's go home… Kurama…" Naruto said. Kurama nodded and genjutsu was released.
Genjutsu left some results on Naruto's body but Naruto was still able to move. It took him an hour to return back to the village. Luckily no ANBU had stopped him. Naruto managed to pull himself home.
He opened the door in his home and went directly in bathroom to treat his wounds, "Ow… Kurama… love hurts, doesn't it?" he chuckled. Soon his wounds were treated and Naruto headed into his bed. The moon was illuminating his bed and cold air was streaming through his window.
Ideal conditions for sleep. Naruto took all his clothes, except for pants, off. He lied on the bed and wrapped with blanket. Unfortunately, Naruto spent few hours outside and without hot shower after coming home, and more that he sleeps almost naked – he can get easily cold.
After he closed his eyes, crimson fur wrapped around his body, "I can't look on you shaking, Naruto…" said Kurama with soft, tender voice and Naruto smiled, "Thank you, Kurama…" he said in tired way.
"Sweet dreams, Naruto" Kurama said, "Sweet dreams, Kurama" Naruto answered. Even Kurama's appearance was caused by genjutsu, Naruto liked it and Kurama as well. Naruto had awoken in some dimension where he was before. It was dimension of Bijuu.
"Where am I… I've been here before…" Naruto said, suddenly Shukaku appeared behind him, "Naruto…" Shukaku said, Naruto turned behind himself, "AH! Shukaku!" Naruto yelped, "Calm down Naruto. I'm not going to hurt you. You're in Bijuu dimension." Shukaku explain.
"Bijuu dimension…? Ah! I was here once! There were also other Bijuu! Where are they?!" Naruto said, "They are all fine, Naruto. I am here to give you an advice from Bijuu." Shukaku said, "Uh..? What advice?" Naruto asked.
"We all watch you still and you're so far the only Jinchuuriki that has managed to get an affection of his Bijuu. I am here to tell you something… as long as you are mortal, you cannot live with Bijuu for eternity." Shukaku explained.
"I've found this out when I thought of it… but what can I do?" Naruto asked, "Jinchuuriki can live eternally if he becomes Bijuu himself. It means to give up on all humanity and join eternal life of Bijuu." Shukaku said and Naruto got surprised.
"You mean… If I want to live with Kurama, I have to become him…?" he asked and Shukaku nodded, "You need to let Kurama to give you cursed sign as he bites you. Think about this wisely" Shukaku said and Naruto looked down, "All my friends… would never know me anymore…"
"Naruto. I recommend you to do that. You have chosen the way of this life. Please, I am talking for all Bijuu – don't let Kurama down and make him happy. We all want Kurama to be happy in his life, he means a lot to us. Care about him and love him, Naruto."
Shukaku explained to Naruto the problem and Naruto returned to his dreams with confusion…
