Chapter 2: The Howling part 2.
(Forest of death)
Both WereFoxes stared at one another in total silence.
The Darker red WereFox (Naruto) stared at the female Red WereFox. Who looked at him with such gentleness and kindness..
The female Werefox growled softly as it gave Naruto a motherly expression with softness in those eyes. As she moved up a little with her arms outstretched for Naruto to join her. You can see tears in the Female's eyes.
Naruto in his WereFox form looked a bit hesitant at this creature thats just like him. He senses no hostility from her. But gentleness and kindness.
Naruto would slowly walk up to the female who would soon embrace him in a hug. Hugging her cub. She cried softly as the embrace was tighter. As she inhaled Naruto's scent. Recognizing his scent, this is her offspring that she carried in her womb.
The boy turned WereFox was caught off guard by the hug.. as he hesitantly brought his arms and would hug the female WereFox who he doesn't know is his Mother.
She broke the hug and would grab his hand to follow her. She's taking him to the pack, that she created.
(Kushina's Pack)
The White Werefox who is a female who once went by "Alpha" in Root. Was watching the other 66 WereFoxes until Kushina comes back. She would look at the other WereFoxes who were all Root Shinobi under Danzo's command but due to them being attacked and bitten by Kushina they became WereFoxes themselves.
Another thing that had changed was they were all fiercely loyal to Kushina seeing her as the leader. Like an Alpha in a pack. Alpha was the first to notice this in her transformation. Plus.. kushina puts her in charge which could technically make her a Beta in the pack. Leaving her to run things in the pack when the Alpha isnt around.
The bushes would rustle and immediately The White WereFox and the rest would perk their heads up and saw Kushina along with another WereFox.
She would growl to them. Telling them that this Cub, is her child.
immediately the other WereFoxes would bow down seeing their Alpha's heir to the pack.
Naruto looks at all the other WereFoxes in shock, he didn't know there was more than one just like the red one.
She would grab her cub's hand holding lt, as she growled to the others. Telling them to move on.
Naruto has joined the Pack.
The said Pack would wander deeper and deeper into the forest of Death. As many other creatures and Predators stayed clear of them.
The predators and many vicious creatures of the Forest of Death, had come to fear these WereFoxes. And they gave off a frightening aura and these creatures knew better not to mess with them.
As they traveled deep into the forest. They found themselves a large cave. A Cave and a wide landscape area.
Kushina motioned for Alpha to go check the cave out, in which she did, the cave was dark, deep and moist. It looked vacant and deserted. Nothing but bones of dead Shinobi who participated in the chunin exams, and skeletal creatures.
The Alpha returned and grunted.
Kushina understood this and roared to the other beasts to follow.
They have found their home. A large cave. Come in the morning they will explore the cave to see how deep it is.
The Kushina would take naruto who still held Kushina's hand. As the two would find themselves a place to sleep at.
The White WereFox being the Beta of the pack would tell the other WereFoxes to remain on guard.
Both Kushina and Naruto would lay asleep together embracing one another.
(Morning, Hokage Tower)
"Are you sure you searched EVERYWHERE!" The Hokage asked Hawk and his squad.
"We have lord Hokage.. we followed the tracks which led to the forest of death." Hawk says with the Hokage glaring.
"So you assume he's in the forest of death why have you not gone in there and searched for him?" The Hokage questioned with Hawk and his squad of Anbu exchanging glances at one another nervously
"Well Sir... we think that we would never find him in there... you know what the forest of death is like... filled with lots of monsters.. beasts and other unspeakable things that's possibly in there, it can even be a possibility that he's lost in there." Hawk would explain. The Hokage narrowed his eyes.
"You FOOLS! Do you have any idea how valuable Naruto Uzumaki IS!? You still could have went in there and searched for him! He could be still in there!" Hiruzen snapped at the Anbu for their stupidity.
"Get out of my sight!" He barks as they nodded and immediately left, leaving the Hokage alone.
He face palmed himself and sighed.
This morning has not been a good morning. Now why is that?
Because when word got out about the carnage. A meeting a brought up. Civilians were in fear that the Kyuubi known as. Naruto has decided to turn savage and attack it's people. Hiruzen tried covering this up.
Assuring them that Naruto did not do this out of his free will...
Now that boy is lost in the forest of death and still hasn't been found.
The Hokage Office doors barged open revealing Koharu and Homura. His ex teammates.
"And what can i help the two of you with?" He asked them with a look of annoyance.
"Danzo is missing Hiruzen. And it concerns me." Koharu would be the first to say
"I concur. Its not like Danzo to miss a meeting and turn up missing. We both visited his house and he was no where to be found." Homura agreed with her.
Hiruzen looked serious at the mention of Danzo being missing.
"Are you certain that Danzo is missing?" He asked the two who nodded.
"We believe he is missing... maybe the "boy" who slaughtered those innocent villagers and shinobi last night killed him!" Koharu accused making hiruzen narrow his eyes
"That's absurd, Naruto has never killed anyone before and you know it! He's only 6 years old! The fox may have drove him to do it but I highly DOUBT Naruto killed anyone! Out of his own free will, Especially Danzo. Because I specifically told Danzo to stay away from Naruto." Hiruzen retorted. He highly doubts Naruto was capable of killing. He believes the Fox is to blame.
"We know that "Monster" did it! Danzo was your teammate! And you're protecting that thing!" Homura would say
"Enough! I will have someone search and look for Danzo. Get out both of you!" Hiruzen snapped as his two teammates glared and would leave.
"Naruto... where are you?" He asked. He must find that boy..
Should he call Jiraiya? Or handle this himself..
(Forest of Death, The Cave)
It was morning..
Naruto would crack open his eyes, looking groggily as he looked around. He wondered what happened? He then feels a draft, he looked down and noticed he was naked. And that wasnt the only thing.
He was in the arms of a beautiful naked Red haired Woman.
He blushed when he realized he was up againt her large breasts that were F-Cups.
The woman opened her eyes and looked down at Naruto.
"Good morning.. Naru-baby." Kushina greeted with a smile as Naruto would attempt to pull away but Kushina held him in place.
"Wait! Where are you going Naru-baby! Don't leave!" She says to him.
"I... I don't know who you are!" He says trying to break free.
"Wait! You don't know who i am? Its me, i'm your mother..." she says making him look to her in shock and disbelief when those words were uttered.
"Wh-What? You're my mother!? That's not true! Hokage-jiji told me i had no mother and father! " He says which made her gasp that Hiruzen told her son that lie.
"Naru-baby! Please. I am your mother... look in my eyes... look in my eyes, i speak the truth. Search yourself and you will know it to be true.. Hiruzen lied to you!" She tells him as they both stares into one another's eyes in silence.
Naruto kept staring into the Face of Kushina Uzumaki.. who looks just like him..
His eyes began to water.. as Kushina would bring Naruto in her arms. Feeling him cry on her chest.
"Its okay... you can cry.." she says gently as he would pull away looking at her
"Where have you been?" He asked as she sighed
"Its a long story.. Naru-baby. I've been imprisoned against my will by Danzo... who kept me in his base.. how old are you? Why do you look so thin?" Kushina asked her son
"I am six.. and the reason i'm thin is because the orphanage doesn't feed me much and-" He says but Kushina looked livid.
"WHAT!? ORPHANGE!? WHERE IS JIRAIYA AND TSUNADE!? THEY ARE YOUR GODPARENTS!? THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO LOOK AFTER YOU SHOULD SOMETHING HAPPEN TO ME AND YOUR FATHER!" Kushina growled
"I don't know who Jiraiya and Tsunade are.. i never met them or seen them before.. i just know they are Hokage-jiij's students." Naruto answered honestly.
Kushina looked livid. She fucking KNEW Jiraiya couldnt be trusted to look after Naruto. But Tsunade? She EXPECTED Tsunade to at least do her duties as Godmother considering Tsunade is part Uzumaki!
"That good for nothing toad pervert...! I will RIP him to shreds!" Kushina snarled flexing her claws.
"Naruto... tell me exactly what your life has been like?" She asked him, calming herself down.
"Well... I haven't been treated kindly by anyone during my life.. was kicked out of the orphanage three days ago... then last night... i was chased by a mob... and they attacked me. Everything went dark at that.." he answered trying to remember what happened last night.
Kushina stood there silently shaking in rage. As she growled animalistic, baring her fangs.
She knew it... she knew the villagers of Konoha would treat her son harshly for holding the Fox. Hiruzen has failed in protecting Naruto.. lied to him.. put him in a orphanage.. he gets kicked out three days later meaning her son had to survive on the streets homeless during those days!? Then those ungrateful villagers attacked her SON!?
Kushina felt her Protective motherly instincts to surge within her to go right into the village and tear a new ASSHOLE in the said village.
Because Mommy's very angry.
"I fucking told you the villagers would never accept him Minato! You trusted your blind faith in them thinking they would see Naruto as a hero but their hate for the Fox grew so strong that they were willing to harm our CHILD!?" She snarled mentally at her late mate now furious with him.
"Mother. If you are here.. where is dad?" He asked making her look to him.
"Sweetheart.. your father is dead... your father is the Yondaime of Konoha... he sacrificed his life to seal the kyuubi within you.." Kushina answered telling her son everything of what happened that night, on the night of his birth.
Naruto looked shocked, in disbelief, that his father is the Yondaime of Konoha? And is the reason he's hated in the village for holding the Fox.
Naruto felt angry at his father.. and feels like he would never forgive him.
"Its all right Naru-baby... you have me... i'm here now..." Kushina tells him
"Are we going back in the village?" He asked with her going silent.
She wants to invoke her wrath upon the village for harming her son.
"No. we will stay here in this forest as our home... with our pack.. Tell me Naruto... what do you remember last night?" She asked
"I... when i was attacked... I gazed at the moon and everything went... blank for me." He answered with Kushina looking at him.
"Its just as I suspected... thats what woke me out of my six year coma.. your howl and first transformation." She says making him blink in confusion
"Huh? What do you mean?" He asked
"So he gifted you his curse too.." She spoke calmly
"Curse? " Naruto repeated
"Yes.. Naruto.. Thanks to Minato.. by sealing the kyuubi within you, the Fox gave you its curse." She answered
"What is this curse?" He asked
"This curse... is the curse of a WereFox. " she told him with him gasping lightly
