-Chapter 2-
-Naruto's POV-
A soft groan escaped his lips as Naruto returned to the world of consciousness. Slowly opening his eyes, his vision slowly slid into focus to reveal a bright metal room with lots of windows. At first, he thought he was in the hospital after nightfall, but dismissed that possibility from the lack of chemical sterility smell.
Before he could ponder on it further though, a young girl wearing a blue helmet popped into his view causing him to yelp in surprise. "Oops, sorry didn't mean to startle you." She apologized, carefully knelling down next to him. "How are you feeling?"
"Like I got ran over by boss toad," Naruto said missing the confused look on her face as he tried to shift onto his back only to yelp again as a sharp pain shot up his spine.
Wondering what caused the pain, memories of what happened earlier, particularly what he heard the kyuubi say rapidly played through his head as he shot up. Trying to stand up, he suddenly lost his balance, falling to the ground only to catch himself and froze. The first thing he noticed was he now had a right arm again, the problem… both it and his left arm were almost entirely covered in golden fur, running up to just a few inches below his shoulders and down to his hands and fingers where it shifted to a sparkling white. At the tip of each finger was a curved half inch black claw that gleamed in the sunlight.
Breathing heavily as panic rushed through his body, he slowly turned his head backwards to see long gold furred, white tipped tail swinging idly behind him.
"… … … …AHHHHHHHHHH!"
-Sora's POV-
Sora winced as the boy's scream rang loudly through the tram, followed by banging and crashing as he scrambled across the room, seemingly trying to run away from the additions to his body. Not knowing what to do and having no one to help her, the others had all left to go search for food while she watched him, Sora could only watch helplessly as the boy eventually wore himself out, ending up curled into a ball in the middle of the now trashed area.
She finally snapped out of her stunned state as light sniffles reached her ears. Slowly approaching the curled-up blond, she crouched down by his side while trying to think of a way to help. Not much was coming to mind though, given that she knew literally nothing about the mysterious blond, not even his name.
"I'm a monster… they'll never let me back now… I'm a monster…" He repeated in a broken voice as tears poured don his whiskered cheeks, his clawed hands gripping his head hard enough to draw blood. Seeing this, Sora immediately grabbed his arms and pulled them away with great difficulty.
"Hey! Easy there, hurting yourself not going to help anything." She said, getting the boy out of his stupor.
Deciding to just wing it, she gently pulled the boy into a hug and slowly rocked back and forth as she lightly scratched one of the fluffy pointed ears resting atop his head. Feeling him stiffen, Sora started to worry she'd done the wrong thing before feeling relieved as he slowly relaxed into her grasp and settled down.
"Why are you being so nice to me?" He asked, with her response being a shrug.
"Why wouldn't I?" She asked back. He didn't have a response, and they just sat their quietly for a few minutes. Eventually, he pulled free from her grasp and shakily pulled himself onto one of the benches. Wiping the tears from his eyes, he looked directly at her, revealing his left eye to now have pitch black sclera instead of the normal white.
"…thank you," He said quietly, leaning back into his seat and stared at his slightly bloodied… hands? Paws? Sora smiled as she sat down next to him,
"No problem, my names Sora by the way, Sora Takenouchi."
"…Naruto Uzumaki," He told her, looking up to give her a small smile before looking back down.
-Neutral POV-
"Hey Sora! We're back, and we got some grub!" Tai called as he walked into the tram with the others, only for them all to stop at the site of the trashed inside and the duo sitting to the side.
"Hey, your awake, guess we missed the wake up call. Nice to meet'cha, the names Gomamon." Gomamon introduced as he waddled over and pulled himself onto the bench.
Naruto tilted his head curiously at the seal-like creature, he hadn't seen a summon like him before. "Hello," This stared off the whole chain as everyone started introducing each-other. Tai seemed confident yet brash, Matt reminded him of a much less broody Sasuke, Mimi was a nice girl but scared him a little when she went fangirl over his tail, Izzy kept poking and prodding him while asking questions and saying things that made his head swirl, Joe was also okay though a bit paranoid, and T.K. kept going on about how cool he looked.
"So, who was that digimon that attacked you, I've never seen one like him before." Tentomon asked as he buzzed curiously around Naruto's head.
"Digi-what now?" Naruto asked looking to Sora who shrugged.
"That's what the local inhabitants of the area seem to designate themselves as from what we can tell. The seven of us were dropped off here earlier today from a freak meteorological event and were in the middle of determining a route to our previous location when we found you." Izzy explained, only to get a blank look from Naruto.
"It's what we call ourselves and their lost," Gomamon summed up for him, getting Naruto to 'oh' in understanding as Izzy just sighed. "Now seriously, who was it? I owe him one for tossing my buddies aro-"
"Don't, he'd kill you all in an instant. You're lucky to be breathing right now." Naruto cut in, the seriousness in his voice causing both human and digimon to gulp.
Not one to be deterred easily, Gomamon smirked, "Oh yeah, I betcha I could take him, he doesn't look that tuff." "Naruto opened his mouth to respond but was cut off by a loud growling noise.
"Gah! Are we under attack!?" Tai said as he looked out the windows with the others until they realized the growling came from inside as it sounded again.
Turning to the source, they were met with the gaze of an embarrassed Naruto as he held his stomach. "You wouldn't happen to have any ramen, would you?" He asked sheepishly.
This caused everyone to chuckle loudly before they all headed outside where small piles of fruit, mushrooms, and fishes laid next to an unlit fire that Agumon quickly fixed with a cry of "Pepper Breath!". Eating their fills, Naruto stayed mostly quiet as he stared at his reflection in the water. Not only had his physical appearance changed, his old clothes had somehow been replaced with a blue tee-shirt with an orange jacket both with short sleeves, dark blue pants with a kunai holder strapped to his leg, and black and orange sneakers as Tai called them on his feet.
'Man, now how am I going to become Hokage?' He thought sadly, before suddenly cheering up. 'Duh! Tsunade-Obachan will be able to put me back to normal! She was able to fix Lee after all.' With new encouragement running through him, Naruto stood up and walked a short distance away getting everyone's attention at his sudden happy attitude.
"Wasn't he super sad a second ago?" Palmon asks, her flowery head tilted in confusion as nobody responded.
Biting his thumb to draw blood much to their shock, he quickly went through a few hand-signs as he drew out his chakra before slamming his hands against the ground. "Summoning Jutsu!" He yelled causing a large puff of smoke to appear. When the smoke cleared however, Naruto's happy expression dropped as he saw the small tadpole wiggling on the ground before vanishing in another poof.
"…"
"…"
"Not this shit again!"
-End Chapter-
AN: Sorry if this was a bit crummy, I'm still working on emotional bits so any advice would be welcome. If you haven't figured it out, his current appearance is based off Renamon from digimon Tamers. To those who didn't understand Naruto's initial reaction, he's grown up being ostracized for holding the Kyuubi, so you could imagine wat would happen if he were to walk into Konoha looking the way he currently does, something even Naruto could figure out. Though just like he does in canon he bounced back after a little bit. Thank you for reading and please review.
