"Love ya."
Until now, I never believed that two small words could ever effect me.
My whole life I've been called, freak, weirdo, and even blind. So, I never let words do harm to my spirit.
But now I, sitting here as close as I was to him, I felt as if my old self was crumbling and a new me was being born.
I stopped breathing. I felt my body shake. I moved my head so I could look him in the eyes.
"Houkou..." I began.
He looked at me for a moment, trying to figure out my thoughts.
He closed his eyes, relaxing...Taking my expression in.
I was shocked a little to see him not blushing so hard.
Before I knew it, my eyes drifted downward.
My eyelids fell.
I moved in a little.
And my lips touched his.
Once Shukaku dropped Deiara and was long gone, she stood up and was angry. "How could I be so foolish?! I just attacked him without a plan at all!"
She looked at her cloak and unbuttoned it so her purple shirt and sharingan necklace was shown. She was hating Shukaku, but for some reason flashed back to Jess. "Damn that tanuki! I may have helped him if I was able, but I'm an Akatsuki member first and Jess's friend second. I cannot fail my mission! Kitsune!"
Her fox came up to her with speed and sat in front of her. "I need you to get some more clay. If I'm gone, follow my scent."
Her female fox nodded and took off. Deiara was at war with herself. "Should I help that tanuki? Betray Akatsuki? Akatsuki's the only family I have now. I can't! No! I won't!"
A flow of chakra came from her that was never felt before. She had to use her sharingan to defeat Shukaku, but it was a new power.
Just then, something happened. The Uchiha that could only use normal sharingan had unlocked mangekyo. Now becoming even more dangerous. "That baka is dead, my mission cannot be failure!"
----------------------Back---to---Kyuubi----------------------
Dizzy and her father took off, smelling the foul drunkard Shukaku. I took off in a different way trying to find Suki. Why did I even care if she died. She wouldn't be killed since she was in Akatsuki before, but they did lie to her, so I wasn't all confident. 'Where is she?' I asked myself, smelling around.
All I could do was smell sake. Damn Shukaku! I had to detect her chakra flow now instead of relying on my nose. This was going to be even more difficult with all the chakra interferance around. Why did I even care though? I don't get it. The only person in my life I wanted to protect was my sister Chiyoko, but why Suki? And why now? 'Okay, concentrate, you fought Suki before, remember that chakra signature...'
I thought and felt the chakra all around. Then the similar chakra appeared. 'Got her!'
I took off, my tails were somewhat helping me gain speed. 'Left, right, this way, found the room.'
The smell of sake was nowhere near the room so Shukaku hadn't gotten here yet. What the room reeked of was Itachi and Suki's scent though. I also smelled... blood. My eyes became a tense dark red and my fangs became sharper. 'No!' I shook the blood off my mind and my eyes were normal again.
'I know by now the sugar has worn out, but why do I feel the need to continue this? Pity? No. It wasn't that. What was it then? What was this odd feeling?' I was asking myself as I opened the door.
Suki was on a bed. her hands had medicine on them and the wound on her leg was cleaned, but the scent of the dried blood still remained. "Uhh... Hey, are you okay?" I said blushing.
Suki looked up oddly and saw I was rubbing my head. "Huh?"
"Are you all right?" I repeated.
"Fine, why?"
"Curious is all," I said, turning, hopefully before she saw me blush, "Can you walk?"
"Still hurts a little."
"Want me to carry you?"
"Huh?" she had a confused look on her face.
"I'll carry you if you want."
She had a confused look on her face, the sadstic look you'd see on a doubtful person, but also just confused. She finally nodded slightly and climbed on my back. "Itachi's coming back soon," Suki said once I started at a semi-fast run.
"Won't be a problem," I responded.
"Why are you being so nice to me?" she asked.
I kinda tensed up and my face was a little red. "Umm..." was my response before I smelled something strong.
I stopped in my tracks. It was blood. Blood... My fangs started to grow sharper. "Damn, not now!"
I took off faster with Suki on my back. Never has my bloodlust been this bad. Ever since New York... I had to keep running, but I couldn't run away from this. If it became too bad, Hachi would have to get me under control, if not him, probably no one could...
It happened, unfortunately I went the wrong way and Suki and I ended up where Shukaku was. he was bleeding... YES! BLOOD!
I took Suki off my back and sat her on a crate. My fangs were coming out and my eyes were a dark red. I was crying... I didn't want to transform. My dark self was doing this, but I couldn't stop him until he took full control. My black nails became sharper. I still cried though. "Suki... I'm sorry..."
~Kyuubi
Houkou and I just stared at each other for forever.
A strange feeling started to enter my soul, I never felt like this before.
I wanted to jump on Houkou and kiss him all over.
It actually hurt a little, not being able to do it...
I began to think about what he was going to ask...
What could it have been...
'He probably wanted to ask if you were single' My demon snickered in my head.
I sighed, at least she was enjoying this.
Even though Houkou is only a foot away from my body, I feel like we're thousands of miles apart.
As I sat across from Houkou, I couldn't help the urge to want to hug him again...
But I stayed still. I watched him for a while, but only in quick glances.
He seemed to be concentrating on something, very hard.
I let out a quiet sigh and carefully leaned back on the couch. Now he was staring at me. I felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze.
"Why hasn't Francis been with you all this time?" Houkou spoke up.
"Um...he and my Father have been...traveling. And they decided to come here for a while...." I made out.
"So...how long are they staying?" he asked.
"I don't know...it depends..." I said.
He moved in a little closer. "Depends on what?"
"On what they are planning to do." I explained.
If this continues I might have to leave...Father WILL kill me if I let out too much information as it is.
But he stopped talking. But he had a look on his face that he wanted to ask more...
After Kyuubi is captured by Akatsuki
---
I woke up in a cage. Apparentally some of my chakra leaked out because my fox ears and tails were showing. I rubbed my sore head. "Augh... What happened?" I said out loud.
"So, you're awake," a voice said.
I looked up and saw Pein. "You!" I growled.
"Calm down little fox, you're going to be apart of our team soon. Just like Yurikami," Pein said slyly.
I was mad. Yurikami was apart of our group and they had the nerve to say that. "You shut up! I'd never join with you!"
"Hehe... I figured as much, but I'll give you time," he said, walking away, "Oh, but before you think, I'd just like to tell you, you won't be seeing that girlfriend of yours. It seems as if she's been taken care of. You may also want to think carefully."
I started to growl. I forced one of my arms to slash at him, but he dodged with ease. "You don't want anything to happen to Dizzy do you?"
"Dizzy? You mean that fox girl?"
"Yes, she's here, thanks to Yurikami. Think carefully. You don't want any more biju to die do you?"
Pein walked out of the room. That jerk. I wanted to kill him. What happened to Suki was also on my mind, but wait, why did I even care? I shook the thought off my mind and picked the lock with one of my black nails. Once I heard a click, 'Got it!' I exited and had to find my way to Dizzy.
Baka would go emo on me if Dizzy was gone too. Once I explored for a while, I came to a cargo bay. Dizzy was with Tobi and I saw Zetsu too. I quickly hid behind one of the crates and tried to listen in. I noticed something on Dizzy's neck though. What was it? A necklace? "He's here. You want me to capture him?" Zetsu said suddenly.
'What?' my eyes widened.
Zetsu materialized by me and grabbed me. I struggled and tried to get my tails to get him to let go, but it was in vein. "You just don't learn, do you?" Madara/Tobi said to my face.
"Madara Uchiha!" I growled.
Dizzy had a blank expression on her face. "I love you Tobi. Do you want me to destory him?" she said.
"What did you do to her?!" I snapped.
"Just found a way to make her see things my way," he said simply.
"Monster!" I growled.
"Look whose talking, kitsune!"
"You'll pay!"
"No, you'll die by the hands of one of your own! Dizzy, make him suffer!"
"Gladly Tobi," she said, transforming into her three-tailed form.
She tried to attack, but I dodged when Zetsu let go. "Dizzy, don't do this!"
"No! Chaos Scream," she said, letting out her attack.
The attack was dreadful, especially with my fox ears reveiled. "GAAAHHH! THAT'S IT! NO PLAYING AROUND!"
I transformed into my fox form and the battle with a three tailed fox was beginning. "DARK POISON CHAOS SLASH! DARK CHAOS WAVE!" she cried out.
I thought quickly and knew how to counter. "Fire Style: Flame Wheel! Fire Style: Fox Slash!"
I countered and all the attacks were cancelled out. Dizzy growled. "Super dark mega lighting chaos blast!"
She fired out lightning and I needed to think quick. "Wind Style: Tail Tornado!"
I used my tails to disperse the lightning and Dizzy was mad. "SUPER DARK GIGA LIGHTING CHAOS BOMB! SUPER DARK MEGA LIGHING CHAOS WAVE!"
More dark attacks, I needed to counter with one of my own. "Blackfire Cyclone!"
The attack was dispersed and I was getting tired. I was panting and transformed back into my human form, but my fox tails and ears stayed, due to chakra overflow. I couldn't do anything but rest. The next thing I knew Dizzy was kicking me. "Why didn't you help me?!" she snapped.
I looked around and saw a large demon. He looked somewhat like Dizzy. Maybe her father. "You wanted to fight so badly!"
"Whatever," she scoffed, "Where is everyone anyway?"
"Club's kinda spread out. If you smell sake, you can find baka."
"WHAT?!" her father snapped, "YOU LET MY DAUGHTER HANG AROUND A DRUNK?! WHAT KIND OF BIJU KING ARE YOU?!"
After that loud shout, I snapped back, "Hey, I didn't let Shukaku do that! He never listens! He did that on his own! The baka perv even kissed your daughter when she likes Tails!"
"Ew! Shukaku germs! He did do that!" Dizzy said, pretending to wipe off something.
"THAT SHUKAKU IS GOING TO DIE!" both Dizzy and her father said.
It mattered not to me. Where was Suki. I needed to search the base. I don't know why, but I felt like I needed to.
