Chapter 6.
( Tazuna's House)
The Group made it in. As Tsunami who was Tazuna's daughter was happy that her father made it alive as the group laid Kakashi down on the couch.
Tsunami would turn to team 7
"Thank you for escorting my father here and saving his life. We are in your debt." Says Tsunamj with a graceful smile.
"You are most welcome." Yamato would say.
"We have food and extra guest rooms. Do make yourselves at home." Tsunami says as team 7 looked ready to settle in.
Inari glared at team 7. In which Naruko noticed.
"What's his problem." She thought with a frown as she walks away to go get settled in her room.
( A little later)
Naruko would be sound asleep. While she would be brought into her mindscape to meet a certain fox.
( Naruko's mindscape)
Naruko appears as she looks around noticing she's standing in water. Lots of water and then she spots a giant cage as she walks towards.
"It's you..." Naruko would say as she saw the Kyuubi stare at her down behind the cage.
"My dear vessel. I'm glad that you are here." He spoke glancing down at her.
"What do you want?" She asks narrowing her eyes slightly at the creature responsible for having both her parents killed.
"Just for a chat. And a little warning. Remember earlier today you saw that one jonin who can create wood clones? Having the First Hokage's bloodline.." Kyuubi would say with Naruko nodding
"Yeah. What about him?" Naruko replied raising a brow.
"He's not a Senju is he?" The Fox asked with Naruko shaking her head. Yamato isn't a Senju just a man who was able to have the first Hokage's wood style Jutsu. Since there is hardly no other Senju who can possess the wood style Jutsu besides him.
"I figured as much. I see why the third Hokage placed him on your current team." The Fox mused as its eyes narrowed and swayed its 9 tails. This suddenly made Naruko more suspicious on why Yamato is a extra member.
"What do you mean?" Naruko asks wanting to know exactly what the Third Hokage intends to do and connect the dots to why Yamato is placed on her team. She noticed how Yamato has been watching her like a Hawk even since he was first introduced in the team.
"It seems your third Hokage knows that you intend to leave this village someday. I have a hunch as to why that man named Yamato is on Team 7. To keep you from ever leaving." The Kyuubi answered making Naruko glare.
"What's so special about him to stop me from leaving? The wood style?" Naruko asks
"The Wood style is known to surpress and control a Bijuu. The First Hokage used it on me all the time when he fought Uchiha Madara. The point is kit. Is that your Hokage doesn't want you to leave and he put that man on your team to ensure that you don't make any attempts on escaping or leaving this village. And since I'm sealed inside you. That man will use the wood style to keep you in check." The Kyuubi replied with a low snarl.
Of course... It all made sense now...
She clenched her fists...
"So he's denying me from leaving that Shit hole of a village?" She growled with her blue eyes going from Amber Moon colored to blue.
"That's what I'm assuming is the case, Kit. Why else would he have that man on your team." Kyuubi would point out with her facing him in the cage.
"Why are you informing me this? I'm just asking out of curiosity." She asks folding her arms under her breasts. Even though the two of them aren't on good terms with one another and have never interacted before since this is their first interaction as she heard the fox let out a low growl.
"Because I'm the only one you can trust. Don't you desire to leave the leaf village and be free elsewhere? After all if you are my vessel I don't want a weak vessel." Kyuubi would answer making her go silent for a moment as if she was thinking this over.
"I do want to leave the village. I plan to leave it once I make Chunin. I still need to get the hang of using this Witchblade. Like learn how to control it." She says now acknowledging that the only person she will have to trust is the Fox. Since he made a point about the Sandaime putting Yamato on team 7 to keep Watch on her and to ensure she doesn't escape.
"Allow me to help you with that." Says a voice as a figure walks out of the shadows making both Naruko and Kyuubi look towards the figure.
She has brown hair, brown eyes, a curvaceous body of that of a middle aged 20 year old. A yellow shirt, light tanned.
"Who are are you?" Naruko asks the woman who just so happens to appear.
"I am Masane Amaha." Masane introduced herself towards the young blonde girl with Naruko widening her blue eyes at the first wielder of the Witchblade
"How? How are you here?" Naruko asked with the Kyuubi also wanted to know the same thing.
"A Piece of my soul is linked with the Witchblade you are wearing. Long ago I became its first wielder. When I ascended to a new form with the witchblade fighting many strong opponents it drained my life completely which was the cause of my death. My soul became bounded with the witchblade to help its next wielder. And since it chose you as its second wielder I'm willing to help you learn and master it." Masane answered
"Wait. If I ascend to this new form of the witchblade will it kill me as well?" Naruko asked
"For that, I am unsure. It seems you are a Jinchuriki. It's probably better that you don't ascend to a new form if you don't want to die." Masane would answer with Naruko going silent hoping she doesn't transform into this new form.
"Hold on. There maybe a chance that you can survive kit." Kyuubi says behind its cage. Who had been listening.
"How do you mean?" Naruko asks with Masane turning to the fox.
"You are an Uzumaki. Your mother and the Uzumaki clan-" He says until she perked up that she has a clan.
"Hold on I have a Clan!?" Naruko asks with shock.
"Yes. Please. Don't interrupt and let me finish. There is a possibility that you will survive staying in a new form of this witchblade. With you being an Uzumaki your lifespan and stamina will help counter that affect it will have on you." Kyuubi would say explaining to Naruko about the Uzumaki clan who were known for their sealing arts and such. As he told her the First Hokage married Mito Uzumaki who was his first vessel. Along with the clan's Destruction telling Naruko that her mother was his second vessel.
"Why isn't the Uzumaki clan mentioned in the Konoha history lessons Iruka-Sensei and the teachers of the academy would lecture to us?" She asked
"That is something you will have to discuss with your Hokage." Kyuubi would reply with Naruko clenching her fists.
Just what more is he going to keep from her? The lies... just how does he do it!?
At this point when she gets back to the village. Hiruzen is going to be on Thin ice. Because now she's starting to lose faith and trust in him.
"If what you say is true. Then I want to do it. I want to ascend into this new form of the witchblade." Naruko says looking towards the fox and then faced Masane.
"I see.. then I will train you everything I know in your mind Naruko Namikaze Uzumaki." Masane says with Naruko nodding
And since she also remembered that she absorbed the Forbidden Scroll in her witchblade form Naruko has ACCESS to everything in the arsenal of the forbidden scroll. She can use every summon, every Jutsu,?sealing arts. Forms of Taijutsu, And much more at her disposal. Including weapons. But she has no need for weapons. Because she is the WEAPON. a living Weapon to be more exact.
"When can we begin?" Naruko asks Masane.
"We can do this now." Masane says now turning into her own witchblade form.
"All right. Let's do this." Naruko says with a determined smirk as she too began to call upon the power of her witchblade.
To be continued.
An: Here is the new chapter! Decided to update this!
I will prepare the next chapter sometime. Next chap she meets boy Haku.
Still on the fence on whether to pair her with Haku or Itachi. So last call on that.
Until next time.
