Kyuubi had told me to go foward so he could have time to transform. I jumped down into the gate and scared three screaming demons. They screamed again, and I sighed.
"Calm down. It'ssss me Hachi," I said.
Hachi!" Misa said defensively, "Aren't you supposed to be with Kyuubi? We were told to stop you."
"No, I'm not with Kyuu-kun, but I was looking for Shukaku-kun. He took Kai, and I want to make sure that he is ok," I lied.
They believed me easily and I walked through. I darted behind a tree to wait for Kyuubi. He was not long, and we procedded onwards.
I jumped from roof to roof, trying to avoid contact with anyone I knew. As Hachi and I approached the village gate, my sister, Misa, and Yurikami were standing at the gate. I figure Shukaku fled and trying to keep me from following. "Hachi, you're going to have to leave before me. I need to transform to another disguise," I told him.
Hachimata nodded and jumped down to the front gate. I couldn't tell what Chiyoko or the others were talking to him about, but either way, they let him through. "Okay, I have to transform into someone they never saw before, so I'll be home free. Adding to that, you can't even smell my scent anymore, just cigarette smoke and ash."
I thought for a minute and remembered the show Death Note. "If I transform into Azuma, there's a chance he could've passed through there or close to the gate, but if I transform into Matt off of Death Note, they wouldn't know him or his scent."
I hid behind a building so no one could notice and I transformed. I walked to the gate, but was stopped by Chiyoko. "Excuse me sir?"
I froze in my tracks, "Yes, what is it little one?"
"Gross, you smell like smoke!" Yurikami said, covering her mouth.
"So what?! I don't tell you how to live your life!"
Misa looked at me with blind eyes. "Your chakra's like Kyuu-kun's"
'Crap' "Yeah, I'm a ninja from the thunder village. One of their most powerful," I said, hoping my facade would work.
Misa said nothing, but after a few minutes, she said, "Okay, just make sure if you find him, to get his butt back here."
"Don't worry, I'll help you out as much as I can," I said bowing.
I walked off into the woods and after much distance and no view of the gate anymore, I met with Hachimata and transformed back. "That was a close call," I said, breathing out cigarette smoke.
Kai looked at Naruto who looked back at Kai.
"You have funny hair," Kai laughed.
"You look like a girl," Naruto answered, "Almost as girly as Haku!"
"You did not just say that! You are short and say 'believe it' like you're from the sixties or something," Kai retorted.
"Want to be friends?" Naruto asked.
"Sure," Kai answered.
"So how do you feel about ramen?" Naruto asked.
"It's ok, but I like ohagi more," Kai replied.
"What's ohagi?"
"Like onigiri, but inside there is chocolate instead of fruit paste."
"Yum!"
"But it is also friend! And with caraleme it is really good!"
"Stop making me hungry!" Shukaku yelled at his stomach.
"Sorry!" Naruto and Kai yelled.
"So I'm guessing your favorite color is orange?" Kai asked.
"And yours looks to be....green?"
"We are going to get along well...." Kai said, "Better than me and Hachi."
"Who's Hachi?"
"He's my over working, too tall, too skinny, snake brother," Kai replied.
[to Hachi]
I was running with Kyuubi when I sneezed.
"Someone was talking bad about you," Kyuubi said.
"I bet you fifty thousand yen it was Kai," I answered.
"Misa, Yurikami, Chiyoko, you girls stay here and stop Kyuubi. I'm gonna leave the leaf village for a while. I'll be back...." I said to the three girls. They were crying to see me go, but they understood. I ran to a forest, the moon following me everywhere I go. I looked back at the Leaf Village. The Sun is shining brightly. With the moon following me, that village won't have any night again. Kai, Storm, and Dizzy was still bouncing on my head. I stopped and laid down.
"Where are we? This forest is scary!" Dizzy cried as she hugged Storm. I looked at Kai. It was bedtime for these kids.
"Kai, you go sleep inside me with Naruto. Dizzy and Storm will stay with me. If it's raining inside, it's sake." I said as I opened my mouth. Kai went in. I then looked at Dizzy and Storm.
"Go under me. I'll keep you warm..." I said smiling. The two girls went under me. I laid down gently, using my warm body as a blanket. I grabbed a sake bottle and drank it. It tasted good. 5 minutes later, a 3 tailed Lion the size of a mouse walked by.
"This is my forest, Human. Get Out!" The lion said as it growled, showing its sharp teeth. Seriously, I got to change my human form a bit. I changed back to my demon form and stared at the lion with my death glare.
"Make *hic* me!" I said. The lion backed up slowly, scared of what I might do.
"Sorry. My name is Kakashi. What's yours?"
"Shukaku. *hic* If you see a fox and a snake here, stop them..." Kakashi nodded. Naruto called out from inside me.
"Hey Shukaku. Why didn't you eat a ramen shop? I see other resteraunts except for a ramen shop, believe it!" Naruto complained. I thumped my stomach.
"Be quiet. People *hic* are trying to sleep!" I said, "Why don't you *hic* play with Kai?" Naruto kept quiet. I drank another sake, then went to sleep.
Kai, Hachi, and Kyuubi please continue...
~Shukaku
I walked along with Kyuubi. He took out a cigarette and began smoking it hard.
"You had better be offering me one," I said reaching out for one.
Kyuubi let out somewhat of a crazy laugh and gave me one. I breathed in and sighed out. Smoke wasn't that bad. It was better than what i was feeling then. It was as if I was less than alive and frozen in ice. I didn't care.
"Kai would laugh if he saw what you are doing to yourself," Kyuubi said breating in hevily.
"Yoko-chan you do the same to you," I answered.
We both laughed cruedly and continued on.
"Ssso ya going to tell me what'ssss up?" I asked.
"No, you are just going to have to trust me," Kyuubi said.
"That issss the last thing I am going to do," I answered.
"Fine. I'm going to kill Naruto," he answered.
"Taking the eassssy way out," I responded.
"Maybe..." Kyuubi answered.
Someone continue!
