I finally got to school and was greeted by the gang as I sat down in my seat next to Kiba in the back. Kiba kept asking me questions on why I went out and Sakura and Ino were nagging me about how dangerous it was. Shikamaru and Neji were as calm as ever and Hinata of course was being too shy to ask anything only saying that she's happy I'm feeling better. The bell rang and everyone returned to their sits. Mr. Hatake started collecting everyone's homework including the assignments from me from the day before. He was quite shocked that I had finished last night's homework to, but he nodded in approval.
As class went on, I was pretty much bored already. I looked out the window and there was a tree there blowing lightly in the breeze. Compared to the day before it's actually a nice day until I saw something on one of the branches of the tree. It was a fox, but not a normal fox it was bigger and actually an orange red color. That wasn't all that was different it had nine-tails!? Wait nine-tails as in our shrine god Kyuubi at the temple? I closed my eyes and shook my head side to side.
When I opened them, the fox was gone. Well that was weird don't tell me I'm still hallucinating from my cold. I felt a tap on my head I looked up to see Mr. Hatake had tapped my head with the binder of his book.
"I know it's your first day back, but if you're still not feeling well you can go to the nurse's office. If not, then please pay attention so you won't fall behid." He started walking back up to the front of the room, reading the book he had tapped me with.
I could hear Kiba snickering. I gave him a light shoved in response, which only made him snicker more. After that, I never saw the fox again. In each different class when I could I would check outside the window to see if I could see it again, but nothing. Classes finally ended for the day and it was time to head back. I suggested we all go out to the arcade or the mall to hang out, but it everyone already had plans. They all said maybe next and we all split up at the front of the school going our own directions. Instead of rushing home I decided to take the long route through the park since it was such a nice day. I found a bench and sat down. I lend back against it and lifted my head back closing my eyes and enjoying the breeze blow through my blonde spikey hair.
"Looks like you are enjoying yourself?"
That voice I knew that voice my eyes shot open and I jumped up to see the dark haired demon again siting all relaxed with his arms folded across his chest.
"Y-You again!?" I pointed at him.
"You can't get rid of me that easily Naruto," he smiled.
"H-How do you know me?" I dropped my arm.
"Well I was watching you while you were in class. Everything has changed a lot in 1,000 years." He said that looking at the children behind me that were playing on the jungle gym.
"What do you want from me?" He looks back at me.
"Nothing for now I'm just observing since I'm not too familiar with this time frame. Also you have something following you."
I looked at him confused following me? Wait is he talking about the fox? He must have notice something, "You've seen it haven't you? The fox that's following you." I nodded in response.
"Hm…, but it seems you have an idea of who he is too don't you?" he said eerily.
"Well… from how he looked he looked just like our God from the temple who was said to watch over the Uzumaki family, Kyuubi, but it can't be…" I crossed my arms over my chest trying to think.
"Oh no it's possibly," I looked up at him. "Look at me I'm real aren't I? I can sense you have the gift to see what others can't your brother seems to be the same way, but tries to hide it."
What? So brother is still able to see them, but I haven't been able to see them in years.
"Look behind me do you see them?" I blinked and looked behind him. There was a tree, but I didn't see..wait. I couldn't believe my eyes. There were little spirit sprites like when I was a kid and beyond that there was a white fox laying on a tree branch looking at me. I knew that fox I used to play with him all the time when I was a kid.
"Y-Yuki…" The small fox jumped up in response to the name in surprised as his tail swayed back and forth happily hearing his name.
"Oh so you know this fox. I've noticed he's always following you and watching you."
The fox jumped off the tree branch and landed right in front of me. He sat down and stared at him as I stared back. The fox looked so happy. I squatted down until I was about eye level with him. I stretch out my right hand to his head. In response the fox closed his eyes and bend his ears back as my hand touched the top of his head. I gently petted him. He was so happy he started to make happy noises and his tail swayed more. He got so excited he jump at me and pushed me down on my back and started to lick my face. I started laughing because it tickled so much.
"Ok ok that's enough Yuki I missed you too hehe," he then got down and sat in between my legs so I could sit up. "I can't believe it's really you…" all I could do was smile.
"Alright alright… break it up. I get it your happy to see your pet again, but I wasn't exactly finished talking." Yuki turned his head around to look at the dark hair demon and started to growl. "You and me both know you can't beat me little fox so don't bother with your empty growls," he said amused.
Yuki stopped growling and faced me again with a happy face. I pet him again before getting up. "So I guess this means I can see them all again huh…" But I wonder why?
"That's right it looks like when you saw me in the cave it unlocked the seal that was placed on you to hide it." I looked at him confused. A seal?
"Hey don't ask me. I just woke up the other day remember?"
I sighed, "So dem-"
"Sasuke..." he cut me off.
I stared confused, "It's my name…"
"I see… Sasuke then what exactly do I do as your imprinted one?" he laughed slightly.
"I thought you knew everything about us Guardians?" I flushed a bit. "Well you really don't have to do anything. We are called Guardians for a reason. Our purpose in life is to find our imprinted one's to find happiness and protect them until the either they or us dies," he answered softly.
I really couldn't say much I mean I knew that, but that's it? "So I just do nothing except have you stalk me for the rest of my life?"
"Jeez don't make it sound so bad I'm not exactly thrilled about you as my imprinted one either. From what I used to hear Guardians who never found their imprinted one would either die of a broken heart or go rampage in their demonic forms and kill everyone in their path. Only Guardians can kill other Guardians, so other Guardians would have to put them down…" He went on to tell me how he was different from other Guardians he was more powerful. That's how he was able to hid his hair color and eyes. He's apparently a wolf type demon Guardian which was one of the stronger Guardian classes. He's a half bred, his mother was human and his father was a Guardian. For some reason that not even he understood he was stronger than most he's only known a few like him that were the same. They used to be a group of demon slayers that were sent to not only hunt down normal demons, but rampaging Guardians too. He said they were known as "Kuraitsuki" which means "Dark Moon" in English. There was five of them one girls and four males. Sasuke said he was the co leader of the group another Guardian wolf was the leader.
He really didn't say much who they were or their names. He thought it was pointless since they are probably all dead. Weird thing was he didn't seem to care much for them. I wonder if something happened between them. He told me that he was actually 18 years old, but he looks so much more mature and he's at least 6 inches taller than me. Well I'm still growing anyway so it doesn't matter. We ended up walking home with Yuki by my side as he was telling me all this. I just listen closely, surprised, but also found it interesting. He still hasn't said why he was imprisoned in that cave and I knew he wasn't going to give me any answers here.
We finally made it home and we stopped at the front, "So are you going to be hiding again?"
"Well do you want your family to know about me?" he lead in closely to my face and smiled.
I fell my cheeks become slight and turned my head away from him, "Yea I guess your right…, but still if my brother catches you…"
"I'm not afraid of a mere mortal," he moved his face away from mine.
"You better watch yourself though," all three of us turned around to see who had said that.
It was a big black fox the size of a lion. "You hurt one hair on the young master I will kill you…," he growled.
Who is this now? Another fox what is going on here? He called me young master, but why? There seems to be more going on here then just my ability to see spirits again…
