"I don't know why I can't be the one to train him on this topic."

"We've talked about this Kushina... you can't train Naruto, because you stink at controlling your Tailed Beast." Minato and Kushina had long since realized a problem that came with coming to this world.

The 9 Tails inside of her.

What to do with it.

They couldn't take it out of her without killing her, but they couldn't exactly wait for her death to do anything about it either. They had been stuck in kind of a weird position, since only an Uzumaki could really handle the Kyuubi, and in this world there was only 2 Uzumaki. That actually solved the issue right on it's own.

Split the Kyuubi in half.

Seal half inside of Naruto, and keep the other half sealed inside of Kushina. The once Naruto had mastered the power, she would seal most of the rest of the tailed beast inside of Naruto, leaving herself just enough of the chakra inside of her to not die from it. Then, when Naruto was older, he could do the same thing with his kids, and so on and so on, so that the kyuubi could never be unsealed again.

In a world where Jinchuriki weren't hated at all, there was no stigma at all in turning somebody into one.

Kushina sucked at being a Jinchuriki.

"You aren't even a Jinchuriki though, why do you get to train Naruto... you get to train Naruto in ALL the cool things." Kushina complained with a pout.

"It isn't that-"

"The Rasengan and Senjutsu, need I remind you of that... that is like... the coolest things you could teach." Kushina just raised 2 fingers, but that was enough to prove her point. Two of the coolest things a parent could teach a child, and Minato got to teach both of them. Minato made the Rasengan to teach to her, but she never could figure out how to use it passed the 2nd stage of training.

Kushina was feeling pouty.

Minato recalled it was that time of the month.

"I'm sure that once he gets a little older, you can train him in your Wind Style. The boy is an Uzumaki after all, I'm sure that he inheritted your Wind style... his chakra is even yellow like your chakra is." Minato soothed his wife by patting her back. Kushina was always an emotional person, and pain never bothered her that much. For her, when it was that time, she just got a little dramatic and hard to deal with.

For other people, but he knew how to deal with her.

"I wanna train Naruto in being a Jinchuriki... It is one of the few things we can really bond over." Kushina had a lot in common with her son, more than he had with his father at least, but the fact was that none of those things could really offer a good, a really good, bonding experience that she wanted.

She taught Minato Uzumaki style Fuinjutsu, but the man was a downright genius when it came to inventing techniques. He couldn't name them worth crap, but he could invent a technique and use it like nobodies business.

-With Naruto-

It was inside of his mind.

"So... this is... awkward I guess." Naruto was meditating while practicing what his father taught him about Senjutsu, but the fact was that he had accidentally fallen asleep and landed himself in his own mind. That meant that he had somehow gotten himself inside of his seal, and he was face to face with the kyuubi itself once more.

The kyuubi stared him down.

"..."

"Checkers?" Naruto offered the giant creature, setting down a mental checkers board between them.

"..."

"Just letting you know, I intend to be friends with. I'm not like my parents, I don't have any reason to hate you... so... checkers... you wanna be red or black?" Naruto placed the checkers board inside of the cage keeping the fox trapped. Naruto had gone inside of his seal many times in his life, but typically he was only met with glares and rage. "... I'll be red." Naruto stated as he reached into the cage and moved a red piece.

He was met with an awkward silence.

"... You really do not fear me?"

"Nope, don't fear or hate you. Apparently you're some super scary fox, but honestly... I don't see it. If the process wouldn't kill me, I would give you your freedom." Naruto didn't really see why his parents were so scared of the fox inside of him. Naruto hung out with non-humans all the time, and he didn't see why this was much different. "Heck, some of my best friends aren't human... actually... most of my friends aren't human." Naruto realized that most of the friends he had made couldn't be classified as the same species as him.

Two giant claws were super gentle as they picked up a black piece and moved it.

Naruto moved a piece.

"Your friendships with them, do not compare with me... I am a being a pure hate, and ultimate power."

"Suuuuuuure you are." Naruto didn't even flinch when a claw came inches away from his face. He just grinned and poked the tip of the claw. He was used to the kyuubi being like this, though this was the first time that the kyuubi actually played checkers with him.

He locked eyes with the kyuubi.

His genuine blues looked into hateful reds, and the reds locked onto him, before the kyuubi sighed and looked away.

"... I don't believe you."

"Yes you do, you know I'm not lying. I have been trying to be your friend since I was 7 years old, and I'm not going to back down from that... if I win this match of checkers, you become my friend." Naruto stated as he pointed at the kyuubi.

"If I win?"

"Then I become your friend instead." Naruto proudly gave the other end of the bet.

-Back with Kushina and Minato-

"... but Wind Release is so rare, it is like the rarest affinity to have... there is no way he has my affinity, he MUST have your affinity instead... let me do the Jinchuriki training!" Kushina jumped up and demanded.

She got a small chop to the forehead.

"Ow."

"Okay, and who is going to contain both of you if you both lose control... it is already hard enough to suppress one rampaging Jinchuriki... I can't do it for two kyuubi jinchuriki at the same time." Minato had that as his biggest reason. The first and ONLY time that Kushina lost control, he nearly lost his life to her.

He didn't want a repeat of that.

The front door opened.

"Heeeey, I'm home... look at me glowing."

Jaws dropped.

"Naruto... are you on fire?"

"No, I just beat Kurama in a game of checkers, so he agreed to be my friend... and since we're friends now, he agreed to let me use his power like this." Naruto revealed himseld to be covered in golden yellow chakra flames that spanned across his body. The kyuubi agreed to let him use this power, without allowing any of his hatred to seep through, as long as he kept his word and kept trying to be a good friend to him.

There were crossed arms and confusion.

"... Who is Kurama, did you make friends with some elf... uh..."

"No, Kurama is the Kyuubi." Naruto laughed at the thought.

His parents were both understandibly worried and proud at the same time.

"You... HOW!?" Minato was more shocked, since he had witnessed first hand just how impossible it was for somebody to master that power. His own wife, the person who he actually looked up to the most, couldn't do it. He always believed Naruto would surpass them, but he didn't know how his 13 year old son had managed to do something that his wife still couldn't do.

Was his son a genius?

Was his stupid fool of a son secretely some kind of genius, because he was pretty sure that his son had some kind of amazing talent. He learned to use the Rasengan in a little over 2 months of hard work, and he had even gotten a firm grasp of how to use Senjutsu basics a lot quicker than he ever did.

"How... Actually, how?" Kushina was stunned to the point that she didn't understand what was going on.

How did this happen?

"It isn't that hard, you just have to be his friend. I mean, friends help each other out... hey Dad, can you make the inside of my seal a bit more comfortable for him to live... since he is letting me use his power, the least I can do is make him more comfortable." Naruto wanted to make his new friend a lot less cranky by being stuck in a tight cage.

"Uh... Naruto... what is 11 x 99."

"Uuuuuuuuuuh... numbers."

"Okay, so you are my son, and this is reality." Minato sighed in relief. For a second he thought he was going crazy, but his son was just oddly attuned to learning things that could be used for fighting quicker than others... and it seemed the more motivated Naruto was, the faster he learned how to do something.

Naruto's jaw dropped in shock.

"... am I really that dumb?!"

"Yes."

"OW!?"

"Hey, he isn't dumb, he just isn't book smart... he's a lot like me after all." Kushina proudly proclaimed herself an idiot when it came to academics. She wrapped her arms around Naruto in a very proud hug.

She then whispered into his ear.

"... Okay... but... like...how did you do it... I could use a couple tips." Kushina whispered to her son. She was not above asking him for help. She couldn't even imagine becoming friends with the monster inside of her, it just seemed so impossible to forget how evil it was.

Naruto shrugged.

"I mean... just be his friend."

"How."

"I don't know."

Minato laughed when Kushina dropped to her knees dramatically, since he couldn't imagine it either. His worry went away, and he just looked at his son with pride.

"Question... why do I need to master this power at all though, I mean... what is the point in being super strong when it isn't really related to what I want to do?" Naruto questioned it though. His parents were always using his time away from school as a chance to get in some form of training or lesson.

"Oh... what do you want to do?"

"Not a clue!" Naruto proudly stated.

He was only 13, how was he suppose to know what he wanted to do with his life?
