[Moeta's PoV]
I wake up in a sewer, the water coming up to my ankles, I look around and see multiple pipes but the one that caught my attention is the huge gaping pipe right in front of me.
"Where am I?" I say out loud
Then a warm breeze blew coming from the bigger pipe and so I decided to walk through the huge pipe, and after walking through the pipe I suddenly find myself in the middle of a huge expanse with giant bars of a cage in front of me.
"Hey kid" Then I looked at the bars trying to find where the deep voice came from and noticed the demonic red eyes looking down on me.
"Wha!, W-what are you!"
"I am the nine-tailed "demon" fox," the fox said with air quotes
"T-the Kyuubi?" I stutter
"Yes, I am the nine-tailed fox with the ability to create natural disasters with a flick of my tail." the fox proclaimed "It seems that you might need my power to get out of your, um, predicament"
"Wait where am I right now?" I asked, confused "Also why are you in a cage?"
"You are in your mindscape" He replied "As for me I got sealed into you by the fourth Hokage."
"He sealed you into me?"
"Yes He did"
"W-why?"
"Kit I don't have that much time soon you'll regain consciousness soon" The demon fox replied "To the matter at hand I'm gonna need you to tear the seal of the cage"
"But why?" I asked
"So that I can give you enough… Power to… Protect yourself and your brother" The fox said with a little difficulty "All you need to do is tear off the seal right here in the middle of the cage"
"How do I know I can trust you…"
"To be honest, you can't, but you and your brother's lives are on the line, don't think you've got much of a choice kit"
"...Ok I'll do it," I said walking towards the cage, hoping I had made the right choice.
[Satorou PoV] [Slightly Earlier that day]
*Knock, knock, knock*
"I'm home!"
Mom then opens the door and with a smile says "Hey kiddo how was the exam?"
"Ummm w-well I passed"
"And.. Where's your report?"
I gulp hard and hand mom my paper "I-it's here" I stutter sweating bullets
"Hmm…" mom said curiously scanning my paper but her expression changed from curious to one of slight disappointment, which in her own unique body language you, wouldn't be able to tell but "come inside Satorou"
Dang, so this is how I die huh I don't deserve this… I mean maybe I do. I guess because of my tendency to be an improviser though some call it "laziness", throughout all my time in the academy. I start walking inside my house, adrenaline pumping. I already knew My grades weren't perfect but I was hoping that I might make it out of my parents' wrath or at least avoid most of it.
"Satorou, Your cousin and uncle are coming over later tonight we'll talk about your grades afterward," She said while stirring in a pot of stew not making eye contact "I'm busy right now so why don't you go get ready."
"But mom-" I was about to object when mom hit me with that look the look that translates to:
You're to do as I asked or you will regret every life choices but in a gentle way. That look always gave me a chill up my spine.
"Ok mom" I replied in the end, swiftly making my way to the room.
I went upstairs to my room and got cleaner clothes, I decided to wear a black t-shirt and shorts, change my shoes to casual sneakers, and in an exceedingly sour mood head downstairs.
Now you must be thinkin' 'why are you so negative about a family reunion?' well the thing is my cousin Tora is a smug snob who doesn't know when to shut up and I just can't, I Can't stand that guy he really really pisses me off.
I was just sitting on the sofa watching TV when I heard a few knocks on the door.
"Satorou, could you please get the door?"
"Alright"
I got up and got to the door and looked through the peephole in the door and saw a man with fairly tanned skin chunin jacket with blue whisker-like marks on his face who I immediately recognized as Uncle Shishido and next to him was a boy about my age who had fair skin also with whisker markings on his cheeks, my cousin, Tora.
"Hey kit, can you open up?"
"Sure," I say under my breath
I unlocked the door and they'd then barge in before I was able to get away from the door so when they came in I got hit straight in the face with the door.
"gah! damn it!"
"Sorry pup!" my uncle exclaimed
"Ya sorry pup…" my cousin remarked with sass and confidence that was simply un-shakable
I sigh as I mumble under my breath "This is gonna be a long night…"
