Ship: Itachi/Naruto

Chapter 6:

Naruto's mind is very deep. There are a lot of floors, stairways and doors. After Naruto had teleported away he started to explore his mind, he found some doors that where chained up. He figured those where his bad memories, he also found a door with a label on it. [lullaby]. Naruto was confused, What memory was in this door. It wasn't dark so it wasn't a bad memory, but it wasn't completely light either.

Naruto decided to open it, the moment he opened it his head was flooded with memories of when he was little, when Itachi used to sing that song. The first memories where of when Naruto was only a couple days old. They where in the council room and Hiruzen had just handed Naruto to Itachi.

Itachi held him close and hummed that song, the song that always kept him calm. Naruto was watching as he was pointed at and yelled at by the council men, Naruto saw himself start to cry, as did Itachi so he started to sing again.

*Flashback*

Naruto looked up at Itachi, as did some other ANBU as they heard Naruto stop crying. Naruto had started to smile and giggle, the whole council, Hokage included, had seen this and used it as proof that Naruto was human.

Hiruzen had decided then that Itachi would be part of Naruto's guard. After all, it's not so easy to calm a baby in such a harsh environment.

*Flashback end*

By now Naruto was crying, he wished he could go back to Itachi and thank him but... he didn't even look human anymore. Naruto had popped a mirror out of nowhere and looked at himself. Naruto had 9 silky golden fox tails, two golden fox ears, his human ears nowhere in sight. His skin glowed with a Beautiful golden glow, his skin unmarked by scars or injuries.

His body and facial features more feminine then before, with long eyelashes, plump light red lips and.. his body has curves now. Naruto snapped in a loose shirt and sighed, His hair had also grown, where it was once just above his shoulders it was now down to his mid thigh.

It was also no longer blond but a reddish orange, Naruto was pissed. He snarled at himself and notices his elongated canines, more then before. Before they didn't even stick out, now one of then has pierced his lip and drew blood.

Naruto decided to take a walk and explore more.

-With Itachi-

What the hell?... Itachi looked up to the fox. "What did you do to him?" the fox just looked back at Itachi and snorted as if to say 'I've already explained this' Itachi just let out an exasperated sigh. "Can you atleast tell me where he is? surely you can sense him." The Kyuubi just smirked and suddenly Itachi's head was filled with a map with a red dot on it "Right. Ill just go to that dot then."

Itachi had followed the dot into a corridor with a bunch of doors, each either chained up, very dark, or just gray with a little bit of light. There was a door labeled [lullaby] and it was open, Itachi can already guess what's in it.

He continued walking till he found a large door bigger then the fox's gate. The map says that Naruto is on the other side of this door, but Itachi doesn't know how to get in. He suddenly heard a voice ;Who dares come to this door!;. Okay now Itachi was really confused. "Um, Itachi Uchiha?" The voice seemed contemplative for a second ;Why are you here mortal?; Wasn't Naruto a mortal? oh well whatever. "I'm here to find Naruto, the owner of this... erm. Place?"

;Why do you seek out this boy; Itachi thought for a moment. Naruto had ran away before he could get a good look of what he looked like after his chakra was released, but what he looks like doesn't matter because Itachi still loves him.

"I seek him out because I wish to comfort him. You see he says he isn't comfortable with what he looks like. He says that he doesn't look human, I don't care about that tho because I love him. More then he could ever know."

The voice was silent for a couple minutes. ;You have a true heart boy; this time the voice came from behind him. He whirled around and came face to face with the fourth Hokage. Itachi's eyes widened.

Why was the fourth dwelling in Naruto's... Oh shit. Naruto is Related to the fourth!? "H-how are you.. what?" Itachi's own mind was drawing a blank. The fourth chuckled "If your asking how I'm in here, well, when I sealed the Kyuubi into Naruto, I sealed part of my conscience so that if Naruto ever needed help he could come to me. He has known about it for awhile now but he only just now came to me. He wouldn't tell me why, so thank you for telling me."

Minato started to walk towards the door thing and placed his hand on the door, he waved Itachi over and took his hand and placed it on the door as well. "Pulse your Chakra into the door on the count of three. One." Oh god what's gonna happen?

"Two" Oh lord

"Three" They both pulsed their chakra. Nothing happened. "Erm..." Minato shushed him. The fourth motioned for Itachi to push so he did, and the door opened. It was dark inside, especially since the fourth closed the door.

"Naruto?" Itachi was slightly worried. He felt a pair of arms slide across his stomach and something pressed against his back. "Don't leave me. Please." Itachi touch the hands that where around is abdomen, they where thinner then before and softer.

"Why did you leave?" Itachi really was confused. He felt Naruto tense slightly, he tried to pull his hands away but Itachi didn't let him so he decided to explain. " I am scared that you will hate me for what I look like now"

Though you couldn't see it, Itachi looked sad. "Trust me, if I was going to hate you I would already. And I don't." Naruto let out a breath of relief. Itachi felt something silky touch his arm, before he was turned around and hugged even tighter.

"Naruto?" Naruto took a deep breath and let the room light up, though he kept his head in Itachi's chest. Itachi's breath hitched and Naruto thought he was done for, but... now there where hands playing with his tails and his hair.

Naruto looked up and Itachi's breath hitched AGAIN. "By Kami you are beautiful." Naruto blushed so brightly, and then Itachi lifted him up so on instinct he wrapped his legs around Itachi's waist.

They looked at each other and Itachi smiled. "We really should get back before someone barges into my room." Naruto was back to panicking. "N-no! they will see me!" Itachi just anime sweatdropped.

"If what happened in here was any indication then if anyone came into my room they have already seen." Naruto just passed out and Itachi got thrown out of Naruto's mind.
