LEGEND BELOW
'In the beginning...' = Normal speech.
'I kinda wanted to know.' = Normal thoughts.
'You dare to defy me!?' = Unknown speech.
'That's what I thought.' = Unknown thoughts.
The air in the office room was tense and heavy, to say the least. Hiruzen Sarutobi sat behind his desk, a spoke pipe hanging from his mouth. His attention was drawn to the window beside him, drawing a perfect view of the entire village from its angle. He'd rather get distracted by the small things like that then constantly face down problem after problem. However, being the Hokage meant that you couldn't afford that luxury. Sad thing, that it was...
It was still early morning, as the sun was just on the horizon. He'd been waiting in his office for a small amount of time now, and his patience had been faithfully rewarded. A knock on the office doors broke his thoughts, and pulled his mind to a focus.
'Come in..' He ordered, the tired lull of his aging voice echoing through the doors. The doors opened, revealing the ninja behind it. A tall man dressed in sage like garb entered the room, his long white mane of spiked hair shifting with every step. The click of wood on wood filled the otherwise quiet space, as his geta connected with the floor.
'Jiraiya... Good, you're here...' Hiruzen commented from his seat. The Hokage clasped his hands together gently, his face stressed. 'We have much to discuss, you and I.' The other man, Jiraiya, crossed his arms with a deep frown marring his battle hardened features. A silence pursued following Hiruzen's words, Jiraiya seemingly unwilling to offer a word in edgewise.
'Jiraiya I know you probably don't want to talk to me right now, but this is of the utmost importance.' Hiruzen tried being tough, his voice hardening, but the emotion wasn't there. The sage's frown only seemed to deepen. 'I've been driven up a wall, and I've no idea what to do...' The aged ninja tried, but still got no response. He could always order the man to talk to him, but that could be the true nail in the coffin that finally pushes him away too. Just like the others.
'A leader to a village of ninja I can be, but... when it comes to folklore and legends... Well, I always left that part to you...' Hiruzen sighed, running a hand nervously through his hair. Honestly, as of late, his skill in controlling the village seemed to be slipping. 'You two were always the ones that properly understood the stranger things in life...' His voice trailed off. 'But with Tsunade gone.. that left you.'
'I know there's many a mistake I've made in my day... But I-' The old man's words were cut off when finally, after the one sided conversation pressed on for too long, Jiraiya decided to speak.
'-decided to contact me only when you felt it absolutely necessary...' The man spoke, arms crossed and a hard look drawn across his face. Jiraiya has been conveniently kept out of the loop, and had only just recently been informed of the situation. The reason behind why wasn't the big issue he was dealing with however. 'Of course, letting me know that, while I was away doing stuff for you, my godson's suffered something no one saw physically possible wasn't relevant enough for you to let me know...'
There was a bitter look of resentment on Jiraiya's face, and Hiruzen was ashamed to say that he couldn't dare meet his eyes just then. He knew that something along these lines would happen were he to tell Jiraiya about the unfortunate circumstances Naruto had found himself in, but he had hoped that he could resolve the problem himself. Needless to say, his hopes were dashed, when he realized that he knew absolutely nothing about the physical nature of the mythical Nine Tails, nor how to deal with one. It was clear that Naruto was still relatively the same, mentality speaking, but... After a few weeks of late night research, Hiruzen came to the conclusion that there was much more to Naruto's new form, and the Kyuubi then he felt comfortable with.
There was years of legends and myths and encounters had with the mythical creature known as the Kyuubi, all recorded in some way shape or form. Many had believed, himself included, that the Nine Tailed Demon Fox that attacked that fateful night was just that, a demon. A being hellbent on killing all in its path, caring nothing for the lives that it took in its rampage. It would be all too simple if that were the case. The world of the ninja knew more in dealing with the Bujuu, then in dealing with the creatures of mythology.
Hiruzen had nothing when it came to that topic, but Jiraya did. Jiraya wasn't the sage of the warrior Toads for nothing. The man had his fair share of mythical interactions, and much more knowledge on the subject then he.
'You don't understand the severity of the situation..' Hiruzen chirped back, but was quickly rebuked.
'Of course. But I would've if someone thought to inform me beforehand. Apparently being a godfather means nothing anymore...' The toad sage growled. He refused to let the old man off easily. Hiruzen sighed, rubbing his temples aggressively.
'That isn't important right n-!'
'Don't you dare tell me, what is or is not important right now!' Jiraya shouted, slamming his hands onto the Hokage's desk. 'I don't care! What I want to know, Hiruzen, is how one of the biggest criminals in the land of fire was able to singlehandedly infiltrate Konoha and gain direct access to my godson. This went on unnoticed for two weeks before anyone caught a whiff of foul play!?' Jiraya felt like his eyes were going to explode, the tightness in his jaw extreme. He just couldn't fathom the stupidity of it all.
'Of course, your men never even found out in the first place! You left it up to a civilian girl and her buddies to find out. I thought you ran a Ninja village?' The longer Jiraya went on, the more Hiruzen realized the error of his ways, and just how badly he had screwed up. It was one thing to see it, and another to have it yelled at him from his student. 'You'd think the container of the wildly unstable Nine Tailed goddamn Fox would be someone to keep tabs on!'
'I wasn't about to treat him like a criminal! Always watching him, waiting for him to snap!' Hiruzen shot back. Who was Jiraya to question his decisions?
'And look where that got you in the end.' Jiraya spoke deathly quiet, his hard gaze never leaving Hiruzen's. The old man tried to fight it, but he knew in his heart that everything Jiraya said was absolutely true. He knew that he screwed up badly, but he didn't want to believe that he couldn't save it himself. But, he realized, you couldn't save something you already lost.
Hiruzen slumped in his chair, defeat washing over him. He ran his hands through his hair, his gaze falling to his desk. 'I messed up...' He admitted lowly, his driving effort to defend himself dried up.
'Yes, well, we already covered that.' Jiraya said with a frown. 'So now, let's cover how we're going to go about fixing it.'
'It wasn't a Bujuu...' Hiruzen muttered haunted, his gaze distant. Jiraya frowned.
'What are you taking about?' The frog sage grunted.
'The Kyuubi. The one that attacked thirteen years ago wasn't a Bujuu...' Hiruzen explained, setting his eyes on the sage. Jiraya's eyes narrowed.
'Of course it was. What else could it have been?' Jiraya commented.
'I'm unsure... but. Of all the traits associated with Jinchuriki, Naruto had never displayed any. No random burst of anger, no leaking chakra, no extreme changes to his physical appearance. Nothing... What other Jinchuriki has ever been so perfect?' Hiruzen stated. Jiraya frowned, but didn't comment. 'Minato was a genius, but he wasn't perfect. That seal that he used was rushed, and imperfect. That's why it surprised me when years passed and Naruto remained completely safe from the Kyuubi's malicious chakra and influence.'
'Hmm... Yes that does strike me as strange. The boy was always in the kind hearted side, but it's impossible to believe that he wouldn't suffer some ill side affects from the Kyuubi. But you're sure of this?' Jiraya commented, deciding to take a seat now that they were actually talking.
'I wasn't fully convinced at first, but... I went to personally check up on him two weeks ago, and that's when I noticed it...' Hiruzen muttered lowly, before reaching under his desk for something. 'You're aware of the legends behind the Kitsune, yes?' He questioned.
'I'm fairly informed on their history, why?' Jiraya responded, unsure as to where Hiruzen was going with this.
'The legends spoke of something each Kitsune held, something that gave them their power...' Hiruzen intoned. Jiraya nodded, following along.
'Ah yes. Their Hoshi No Tama, little white crystals. It's said that their life was connected to them. What's that have to do with Naruto?' Jiraya said. He was well aware of the legends pertaining to the mythical creatures, as a sage would be. 'The size of their crystals was related to their power. But most weren't larger then a pebble.'
'Yes well, those pebbles could be deceiving...' Hiruzen muttered. 'It was stated that a Kitsune with a Hoshi No Tama the size of a pebble could destroy a small village...' Jiraya raised an eye brow.
'Cute. But I could easily do the same. What's your point?' Jiraya grunted.
'When I visited Naruto.. I..' Hiruzen seemed to struggle for words. 'I saw it...'
'What?' The white haired man asked.
'Imbedded in his forehead, surrounded by a black patch of fur was a Hoshi No Tama shaped like a diamond, and it was the size of your skull...' Jiraya's heart nearly stopped at the statement.
A horrified look crossed the toad sage's face, his mind reeling. He'd heard of strong Kitsune before, and had actually seen one in person once. But never, never in his life could he possibly even fathom a Kitsune wielding a Hoshi No Tama that big. The color drained from his face, his hands clamming up.
'Are... you certain..?' He found himself asking. His eyes were searching the Hokage for any sort of deceit, any trick. Because if he were telling the truth, the situation they just found themselves in was a whole lot bigger then they were prepared to deal with. 'Perhaps you just... made a mistake..?' Yes, yes that must be the logical conclusion. The only other conclusion was too insane to even think of.
Hiruzen's face contorted, and Jiraya could see just how hard he was trying not to break that level of calm rationality that he tried to carry on his shoulders. 'Please... Jiraya, by all means prove me wrong...' Hiruzen begged, staring him in the eyes. Jiraya's hands found their way to his hair, running them through the white strands stressed. 'That... That is why I called you here Jiraya..'
Jiraya sunk into the chair, his eyes closed. 'Where? Where is he? Naruto..?' The man asked, a deep exhale echoed throughout the room.
'He's currently residing with the Hyuuga Clan. After... what happened, the Hyuuga princess took it upon herself to care for him.' A small smile grew on his face at the thought. A little reprieve settled into the air at that statement, and Jiraya couldn't help but let a little grin form.
'Heh... I swear, that family line can't seem to stay away from princess's...' Jiraya muttered with a tense chuckle. Hiruzen even managed to crack a small smile at the joke, recalling his late successor's hot headed wife.
'Yes well... I don't think Kushina was going to let Minato get away once she sunk her grubby little claws into him.' The Hokage said as if it were a serious matter, alleviating some of the tension. Silence passed on after that point, the two men quietly mulling over all the information laid out before them. There were so many risks and dangers that lay before them, and many of them had no set and ready solution ready to go.
'Do you think he's dangerous..?' Jiraya asked, his hands set firmly onto the chair under him.
'Yes. Without a shadow of a doubt.' Came Hiruzen's reply.
'Do you think he's a threat to the village..?'
'...No...' The old man replied slowly. Jiraya frowned. 'But...'
'But? But what?' Jiraya intoned. There was a catch. He sighed. There was always a catch.
'He's displayed... Rather, aggressive behavior, especially to those that attempt to bring his princess harm.' Hiruzen stated. When Jiraya stayed silent, he moved to explain. 'Two months ago there was another attempted abduction of the Hyuuga Heiress... You can imagine the reaction he had to that.' Jiraya's face paled. 'If not for the hasty intervention by the Hyuuga guard, there wouldn't have been a body left to interrogate...'
'So we're left with a Nine Tailed Kitsune that has a pool of power too large to properly fathom, and a protective streak a continent wide. Said Kitsune most likely knows very little in terms of his potential strength, and could very well destroy everything around him if not careful...' Jiraya felt like slamming his head into the desk, repeatedly. 'Brilliant, Orochimaru! Goddamn brilliant..' He seethed sarcastically.
'Your old teammate's stupid plans aside, let us focus on the here and now, two things that we can affect.' Hiruzen stated, taking a deep breath to attempt to calm his nerves. Jiraya joined him in taking a few calming moments to gather themselves. 'I think that it's in everyone's best interest that we manage to keep him calmed, lest we accidentally have a repeat of the events thirteen years ago...' He suggested. No one wanted another devastating assault by a rampaging Kyuubi. 'And... Perhaps you could help him in that manner...' Hiruzen stated. This caught Jiraya's attention.
'You want me to train him.' It wasn't a question, Jiraya knew. Hiruzen just nodded his head, confirming his beliefs.
'I know that your spare time is limited, but I believe he could do wonders under your wings. And, perhaps being around you might mellow out that aggression he has bottled up inside...' As much as Jiraya hated to admit it, the old geezer did make a very valid point.
'I'll see what I can do.' The white haired sage said. 'But before anything else, I'm going to check up on him in person. It's been nearly nine months since I last saw him...' He explained, as he stood up. Hiruzen smiled, a relieved look washing over him.
'That's all I ask...'
'You've got to try a little harder Princess...' It was once again midday in the Hyuuga household, and as had become rather usual for the heiress and her guardian angel, the two were found training in the Hyuuga's private training grounds. Said training was an evolved form of catch, if you could call it that. Hinata was once again the mouse in the situation, and was doing her damnedest to escape from his grasp. But the Kitsune's big and powerful rear legs prevented her from ever gaining a proper distance from him. His singsong voice echoed across the training hall, before he lunged forward again, his multiple furry tails reaching out.
'Not fair, Naruto! N-No tails!' The Hyuuga princess exclaimed, deftly dodging another one of his lunges with a grace that spoke of her flexibility. She was huffing lightly, but was in much better shape then when they first started those few months ago. Her training had really paid off, and it was proven true by comparing herself to many of the other ninja academy students. She outclassed them all easily, perhaps aside from Sasuke. That girl was something else for sure.
'As you wish.' He smiled a wide happy grin, his eyes lighting up. 'Its easier to hold you this way.' Following his statement, he lunged again, this time reaching his paw padded hands out to grab her. Her body contorted into a backflip, just narrowly escaping his greedy grasp. 'Ah, so close...' He intoned, setting his sights on her form once more.
The design behind the type of training they had thought up was directly related to the young princess's body type. Most of the Hyuuga were rather thin and lean people, by nature as well, not by choice. That was the reason behind why their chosen combat style fit them so well. Quick aggressive and precise chakra infused jabs designed to debilitate and destroy you from the inside out. That was all well and good, but that style stopped working for Hinata when she hit fourteen. Even at such a young age, it was made apparent that the girl would most definitely grow up to have a body just like that of the legendary Tsunade Senju. It was definitely showing too, even at her young age.
Some in the clan had actually started to believe that she might not be of full blood heritage. What other Hyuuga, ever, had a voluptuous body in training, dark purple hair, and lavender eyes? None. Absolutely none. But that didn't change their view of her. If that meant that their future ruler was going to be the most stunning drop dead gorgeous woman in Konoha, then they certainly weren't complaining. She'd also become the first female leader since the clan's origination.
Let it not be said that fighting quickly with large breasts was easy, because it wasn't. If you have anything to say against that, then you'd likely incur the wrath of said Senju. Because she has years of experience proving that it wasn't...
'I-I swear, you never tire!' Hinata whined, dropping to the ground as Naruto jumped over her, landing heavily behind her. He whipped back around, his heavy legs creating echos throughout the training hall as they connected with the hard wood floor. 'N-Not too rough, Naruto. W-We have the team meeting tomorrow!' Hinata squeaked, as Naruto closed in again. Hinata was unable to dodge this time, and found herself caught in the fox's comfortable grasp. Naruto rolled over onto his back, holding Hinata by the hips up in the air like a toy.
'Got you.' The fox laughed. Hinata couldn't help but break up into joyous giggles. 'And now your punishment for failure...' He sung menacingly, nine tails suddenly raised into the air. Her giggling stopped, and she started squirming to escape.
'W-Wait! Naruto don't you d-dare!' Hinata warned, trying to put on her most serious face. However, that fell away rather quickly when she was assaulted on all sides by large furry tails. 'N-N-Noo- aaaah! N-Naruto! Y-You know I'm t-ticklish there!' Hinata squealed with a burst of uncontrollable giggles, her legs closed tightly as if that would save her from her fate. He just smiled and laughed, assaulting all her weak spots over and over. Their laughter filled the hall, before finally they calmed down a few minutes later.
Hinata sat down of his large belly, holding her legs closed as she tried to catch her breath. Naruto just smiled up at her lovingly, the large white gem on his forehead glinting in the flickering light from the lamp posts. The princess's cheeks flared a hot red, and she waved a small fan at herself to cool down.
'I like that color.' Naruto spoke up suddenly, a deep smile crossing his maw. Hinata blushed darker.
'W-What color..?' She couldn't help but ask, though the darkening of her cheeks suggested that she already knew the answer.
'Red.' He spoke truthfully, his eyes gazing over her soft face. 'It's beautiful.' The girl felt like fainting under the heavy adoration she saw in his eyes, eyes that never lied to her, and gave her everything that she wanted. 'The same color as your lips.' Okay, now he was just complimenting her for the sake of complimenting her. 'And your eyes, I love those too.' The sincerity in his voice never ceased to touch her heart. She blushed scarlet, looking away.
'Y-You're such a s-shameless flirt...' The girl muttered, but she smiled back at him. The loving smile that his face lit up into made her feel complete.
'You know you love it...' He responded cheekily. And she did. In fact, she craved his adoring attention, badly. She pretended that she didn't, but he saw straight through that ruse easily. And he enjoyed feeding that craving, very much so. He made her feel like an absolute queen, every day. And she wouldn't have it any other way.
'Yes. Please, tell me more...' She muttered softly, reaching out to grasp his ears. He grinned, happily complying to her wishes.
'I love your voice.' He continued lowly. His nose was now close to hers, almost touching. 'I love your smell.' He said quieter, his nose pressed into the small crevice below her breasts. 'Like cinnamon buns on a cold winter morning...' He breathed hotly, his eyes pulled up to meet her. Her entire face had turned red as she squeaked, and he hid his grin under her chest. 'I love the days where I can sit and watch you train...' The girl found herself lost for words, instead sitting comfortably atop him as he buttered her up.
They were intending to stay like that for a little while longer, but the moment was interrupted by a knock on the hall's double doors. The other clan members knew when to leave them to their privacy, so whoever was there must have needed something important. With a deep sigh, knowing that his fun was likely over for the day, Naruto called out.
'Come in.' Following his exclamation, the doors swung open, revealing one of the Hyuuga guards, and someone else. Naruto's eyes lit up in recognition. 'Jiraya!' The fox exclaimed in shocked joy, quickly getting to his feet. Hinata stood up beside him, her blush fading away as the newcomer entered the hall. She didn't know a Jiraya, but Naruto seemed to, so that was enough for her.
'Hey... kid..' Jiraya said, trying to convey his usual enthusiasm he was known for carrying. Naruto either didn't seem to notice the change in tone, or didn't care. He was just happy to see his godfather once again. '...How yah been holding up?' He asked casually. Inside however, his brain was doing flips. This was the first time he was actually seeing Naruto as he was now, a big overprotective Kitsune, not at all the normal human he used to be. It was almost too much for him to handle without freaking out on the outside.
'I love my life here.' The genuine joy he expressed was surprising to the toad sage. It wasn't at all the reaction he was expecting. Just goes to show just how out of the loop his was. '..I.. I have family here...' It was a more somber tone he took, but nothing less genuine. 'But forget about me. I haven't seen you in forever!'
'Who is t-this, Naruto?' Hinata spoke up from beside him. Naruto just turned a grin to her.
'This, is my godfather. Jiraya.' Naruto informed happily. He was so happy. For the first time in a long time, there was someone else that he knew and loved, here, with him again.
'Ah, and you must be Hinata Hyuuga.' Jiraya said with a grin, bending down to one knee. 'Pleased to meet you. I hear that you're quite the little lady.' She narrowed her eyes at the statement, a blush adorning her cheeks once again.
'Princess isn't small.' Naruto defended.
'Thank you, dear.' Hinata responded, flashing him a loving smile. Jiraya's eyes unfocused for a moment, his mind instantly locking onto two separate words. Now perhaps it was just in his nature to detect these sorts of things, but he couldn't help it even if he tried.
'Princess? Dear? Oh God, they've got pet names for each other!' The sage internally ranted. 'Err yes, my bad.' Came his rather thought out response. 'I don't mean to cut our little reunion short, but I actually came here to check up on you, Sarutobi's orders...' Jiraya sighed, standing back up. He took a moment to fully take Naruto's new form into consideration.
'...Ah.. I see.' Naruto was upset, but he wasn't angry. He understood where this might be coming from.
Naruto Nine Tailed Fox Episodes
'...And if you are willing.. I could help to train you to control your newfound power..' The fox's eyes widened at this. Jiraya saw his reaction and grinned. Hook line and sinker. 'But I'm a very busy man, as you know. Running an entire spy network isn't exactly easy.' He said, trying to come off as cool. Naruto took the bait instantly. But, instead of speaking up for himself, he turned to the spunky little Hyuuga beside him.
Hinata looked between the two, unsure if she should just go along with it, or stay away. She'd been tricked many times before, and Naruto more so. But for him to trust this man the way he did, who was she to say no? That, and the fact that she couldn't deny him anything when he flashed her those pleading shiny rubies.
'I-If you think it's a good idea... Then I'll be okay w-with it...' She seemed unsure, which almost put Naruto off, but she said that she was good, so Naruto let it go.
'Thank you.' His response was soft, giving her a knowing look. Jiraya frowned at the display. He was told that there was something between the two of them, but he didn't expect this. He only caught the butt end of whatever was going on before he barged in, but it seemed to him that Naruto held the Hyuuga so high on his personal list, that he'd probably do literally anything she asked. Now only if he knew that it wasn't a probably, but a most definitely.
'That's great! Well, I'm only in town for today, so we'll have to train some other time.' He said with a sigh. 'But in the meantime, maybe you could catch me up to speed on yourself..? I've been away for a little while...' Jiraya asked, and Naruto's mood seemed to falter. Deciding to get comfortable again, Naruto curled up on the ground, motioning for Hinata to join him. Hinata practically shoved herself into the crook of his neck, resting her back against his furry chest. It was one of her favorite positions.
'...H-He doesn't like to talk about i-it...' Hinata spoke up in the fox's place, running a soothing hand under his chin. 'But i-if you don't mind... I am perfectly capable of o-offering an explanation...' Jiraya's fave softened. It seems like he'd have to settle for that. He could clearly see just how uncomfortable the situation was for him to talk about openly. He wouldn't press it any further...
Naruto Nine Tailed Fox Eye
Jiraya left that afternoon with a much clearer view of the situation, and more importantly, how to handle it. He had all these makeshift plans set up just in case, but it turned out more positive then he first thought possible. He'd report his findings to Hiruzen, and then see what else he could do for the Kitsune. It was the most he could do, and Naruto deserved the help, now more then ever.
His second objective, was to track down the bastard that dared to experiment on his godson, and beat the life out of him. Orochimaru had gone too far this time, and his schemes would have lasting affects this time around. He didn't think it was possible for anyone to turn Naruto back to normal. And sadly, Naruto was the first to reach that conclusion, even when others thought it possible. He had come to terms with the fact that he was stuck like this for the rest of his life, and had apparently decided to get comfortable with it. Jiraya couldn't say that he'd so easily do the same if the roles were reversed...
Of course, it most likely wouldn't have been possible, if not for the little Hyuuga. That girl seemed to be the only thing keeping Naruto sane, and she was doing a terrific job too. He shuddered at the thought of what might happen were he to lose her...
Chapter 5
End.
