This is after the vacation, and I please want everyone to post up their point of view of the fanfic part that I put up last time and this one if ya want.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I bored." Kyuubi said as he was laying down on his head, "Since Shukaku moved somewhere I don't get to visit him and to top it all off, he's the leader for 5 weeks starting now." Someone knocked on the door. Kyuubi opened it. It was Hachi and Kai.
"Kai wantsssss to check out the houssse next door," Hachi explained the left to his home. Kyuubi looked out of his window and saw a huge mansion. Kai was smiling.
'I have to be a baby sitter!?!' Kyuubi thought. Kai was dragging the disguised kistune from the giant door to inside the mansion. Kyuubi wondered what kind of demon lived here when Kai was looking at the fridge for something.
"There's sake here!" Kai yelled excitedly as he stole a giant bottle, "Wait till Hachi sees this." Suddenly, Kyuubi heard a voice singing. It was quite familiar.
Shukaku:10% luck
20% Skill
15% Concentrated power and will
5% Pleasure
50% Pain
And a 100% reason to know the name.
"Ugh! Shukaku. I forgot. It'll take months before he goes back to normal size. That's why he moved in here. I have to save Kai before Hachi kills me!" Kyuubi said, but Kai was nowhere to be seen. Finally, Kyuubi found a drunk Kai in a giant hot tub with Misa. Misa was watching(listening cuz' she's blind) Avatar.
"Oh so that's how Toph sees. Now I can see Kyu-Kun, Big Brother and Kaku-Kun by feeling the earth." Misa said to herself. Kai was nodding vigirously. Kyuubi had to be really quiet in order to get Kai out of here. He snatched Kai and ran into the livingroom.
"But *hic* I wanna be with Misa-Chan." Kai protested. Kyuubi shook his head.
"Shukaku might kill you if you stole his sake."
"Shukaku's lives here *hic? Cool!" Kai started going up on the sofa. Kyuubi followed him. He had an idea to call Shukaku.
'Leader of Biju Club for 5 weeks, how may I help you?'
"Hey there baka..."
'Hi Kyuubi.'
"How's your new home?"
'Great! I'm going to the kitchen to get sake now. I don't wanna talk to you while I'm drunk. Bye!'
"Uh oh." said Kyuubi. He heard footsteps in the Kitchen, then a high-pitched scream.
"WHERE'S MY GIANT SAKE!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!" Kyuubi looked at Kai. Kai was grinning like a fox, putting a peace sign up.
"Hachi's gonna kill me..." Kyuubi sighed.
~Shukaku
“Hey Hachi! Where did all my sake go?” Kai asked one morning.
It was approximately three in morning to be exact. I opened my eyes slowly and stared at the boy staring at me from the hallway. I had made sure to leave my door closed to keep Kai out, but he had pushed the door open. He was still in regular clothes not even pajamas.
“Kai, have you been out all night?” I asked groggily.
“Ya and the bar tender kicked me out, so I came home to some sake. When I came home and went into the kitchen for the sake, it was gone!” Kai nearly yelled.
“Kai, I threw out all that sake,” I answered laying back down on the soft pillows, “Go get in pajamas and get to bed. We have training in two hours.”
“Not until I get some sake. I’ll just go over to Shukaku’s house,” Kai finally decided.
“Kai, get to bed,” I said getting out of bed. If he continued to protest I would have to knock him out.
“Hachiiiiiiiiiiii please!”
‘That was it!’
I grabbed his shoulder and was about to hit him when he yawned. Instead I picked him up and put him in his room. I didn’t bother with pajamas but rather just put him into bed. He was asleep instantly.
“The world would be a better place without sake,” I sighed.
[Approximately seven years ago]
I slithered alone through the mountains. Orochimaru had just asked me to join him, but of course I refused. He was not worth the time or effort. Not when I had the mountains to enjoy. Unlike most, I did not like cities or close areas. I preferred the free air of the mountains. There were little humans to annoy me, and the mountains themselves had always been my home. There was a stream no bigger than one of my tails to drink from, and the trees made a safe haven away from travelers. Fish were plentiful in the shallow ponds, and other animals made peace with me to live happily.
I was not sure how Orochimaru had found me, but I didn’t care. He was a nuisance that could be dealt with easy enough. The smell of something being heated caught one of my noses. Someone was in my mountains burning something! Anger floored in me. It was a human. Did this human not understand that he risked the safety of the trees and the mountains themselves? I followed the trail of the smell until I caught a glimpse of the person making it.
It was a human of the sorts. His white hair stuck out in all directions, and he looked relatively young. He sat with his back to me heating something over a fire.
“Now all I have to do it wait for the fish to get cooked,” the man said happily already drunk with sake, “in the mean time, I’ll finish off this bottle of sake!”
“What are you doing in my mountainssssss?” I hissed.
The man jumped up and looked to see me looking down at him all eight heads ready to tear him to shreds. His fear was evident even though he was trying desperately to act calm.
“You’re Hachimata the mountain *hic* snake!” he said almost pleased.
“What are you doing in my mountainsssss?” I asked again.
“Well you see, I was just cooking *hic* this fish and was about to have *hic* a *hic* second bottle of sake,” the man laughed.
“Ssssake,” I hissed. That fowl drink made humans stupid as well as other creatures. I had refused to drink it. “Get out of my mountains!”
“Awww come *hic* on now you big snakey snakey. I’m not hurting *hic* anything. Come one take *hic* a sip of this stuff and you’ll feel better,” the man chuckled at his own words.
“Get that away!” I hissed. He entered my mountains, was burning my fish, and was talking childish to me! I couldn’t take it! One of my tails slashed at the fire and beat it to death. There was not going to be a fire in my mountains.
“Hey now *hic* snakey! That wasn’t nice!” the man protested.
“Stupid fowl human!” I hissed, “You could easily destroy this haven! Get out!”
“You’re a mean snakey *hic*,” the man laughed grabbing a match and trying to start a fire again. He missed the area with the rocks around it and the sparks hit a bush.
“No!” I said angrily.
The fire caught quickly and began to burn everything into ash. My tails beat the fires, but the spread faster and faster. Terror flew through me. I rushed to the river and sipped up nearly all the water. I spewed the water over the fire, but it grew and grew. I heard the human laughing drunkenly at the fire. There was nothing I could do but vacate the area. Alone I watched as the fire tarnished the once beautiful mountains into black ash. I was far off, but my eyes caught every flake of fire, and every tree cried out in terror. Pain at their loss ripped through me each time one more feel to the fire.
“Stupid humans, stupid sake,” I hissed cursing everything I could think of.
“Humans aren’t that bad,” a cool voice said quietly. I turned to see the nine-tailed fox. He sat beside me as I watched the fire consume everything including the man that started it. I did not move, and he did not move.
“You know, you are going to have to deal with humans eventually,” Kyuubi said calmly, “I can help, but only if you want me to. Come with me, and I’ll teach you human ways and how to deal with them”
“Kyuubi, my home isssss gone, and I have lossssst everything. Yesssss I will come with you, but to where?”
“A human village. It is a safe haven for demons in plain sight.”
“A village filled with humans and ssssake. I will not come.”
“Humans will eventually destroy all your hiding places Hachimata. You will have to face them alone at that time. Come with me, act human, and stay safe from this.”
“How can I just sit back and watch as humans destroy everything?”
“If you join the village, you can stop things before the escalate to this and destroy another area. Come Hachimata, Hachi. Let’s go home.”
“Hachi eh? I like that nick name….”
After that I went with Kyuubi to the village and learned how to act human. My transformation jutst had always sucked, so it put more pressure on me to act like a normal human.
This is as I like when I was human...
Well, I wasn't really born a beast. I was human until I was 19. Before I was born, my mother was very beautiful. Her golden blonde hair and serene blue eyes would make any guy fall in love. And there was my dad. He was the strangest man I ever seen when I was about 4. He was always drinking and eating things like frogs legs and stuff. His black charcoal eyes and orange hair scared the heck out of me. Because of his drinking habits, he gave me the name Shukaku.
Also, he might had been responsible with my obsession with Tanuki. I was in love with tanukis, tanukis, tanukis. I would read the first part of Villa Incognito over and over again. Every night, I would ask my mom to read me tales of kistunes and tanukis. I still have a raccoon teddybear on my bed that I used to play with.
One day, my life changed forever. In the Sand village, I was going to the 2nd Kazekage's office. My mom was ANBU at the time. As I was walking on the road, I saw my father chasing a tanuki, a female to be more presise, with his broken sake bottle.
"And don't you ever come back, you pest!" Father yelled at the creature. I was confused. What has happened to father. Suddenly, the tanuki grabbed my leg and squeezed it tightly. I didn't know what was going on.
"Chuuuu!" The tanuki exclaimed with pleasure. I still didn't understand that. I tried walking away, but she held on to my leg until I went to Janji's Ramen shop. I ordered a miso ramen for myself and some naruto for the tanuki.
"What's your name fella?" I asked to the tanuki. She pointed to my ramen as if she was telling me something.
"Miso?" I wondered. Tanuki shook her head and said aaaaaaahhhhhh.
"So it's Misa. That's a nice name," I commented, "What about your family?" Wromg question. Misa stared into the distance, tears about to break out and she screamed. It might had broken mirrors from a 5 mile radius. I skipped the question.
"I always wanted a tanuki..." I said to Misa. She was happy and she hugged me again. The green haired chef called Janji spoke up.
"Well, I know many tanuki languages from my home, the Stone village." Janji said. I couldn't tell that he was from the Stone. His black skin made me think of Africa.
"Misa said that 5 years ago, her father was the leader of a tanuki clan not far from here. He wanted to take over the world. But in order to do that, he would have to act and live like humans do. He then broke up Misa's mom and married a human named Shikiki, your mother. 2 years later, Misa was born and was about to get killed. Luckily, she made a deal, claiming that she knew the human form of her father to bring him back..."
I didn't know what was worse; having an evil tanuki for a father or knowing what would happen next.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shikiki was washing dishes when I came home. She was very glad that I was safe. This wasn't the first time I had kept a secret. My mom had the ability to control sand that had passed down to me and other ancestors. When I was finally into my bedroom to go to sleep, I stayed awake thinking about my life. Misa shooke me, telling me what's wrong.
"My mom controls sand, My dad is a villian, my step-sister is a tanuki, What ELSE could go wrong!?!" I yelled in the darkness. I cried and cried every night hoping that nothing goes wrong. But it did.
One night, I finally went to sleep. Misa stayed up. She went into my parents and saw sand encasing mom's body and a tanuki next to her. If Misa didn't scream, my parents would've lived a little longer. But she was so sad that she didn't have my father that she cried. I assume you would know what happens next. My parents woke up seeing each other. Father, freaked out from the sand and mom scared that she saw a wild animal. They fought and father beat her up to a bloody pulp.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I woke up the next morning to Misa hiding under the bed. I went downstairs to get breakfast. Mom made me tanuki soup. No, it didn't had real tanuki in it. She always calls it that because it's my favorite soup. As I was about to eat, Misa flung a noodle at mom. Mom was mad and spilled orange juice on Misa's fur. The following food fight made me hungry and I ate everything that was thrown.
"Fools!" Mom said to me, "You didn't reconize me. I, Hiroki no Tanuki, made your mother into a soup. YOU, beast, ate her. Now that I have both of you weaklings conered, there is no way put!"
Misa was hiding behind me. I couldn't blame her. She was 3. I was so angry at myself and my father that the sand covered me, as if my mom was still there to protect me.
"Clone justu!" Hiroki yelled and made a sign. 100 Hirokis surrounded us. That's when I lost my temper. I inhaled a lot of air. I felt like there were mouths on my whole body sucking the oxygen inside.
"Wind Style: Sand Storm Devastation!" I exhaled. My mouths blew away the clones and Hiroki changed back into a tanuki, dead. I fainted. The only thing Misa can do was to take me into the Sand village hospital. After that, I didn't like any parent who treats their children badly....
Next Time~The first night that I got drunk
~Shukaku
Sorry if this story will go between the story line but i wanted to post this up so everyone will know about Chiyoko.
Chiyoko's POV:
9 days and 10 nights....
9 days and 10 nights without a home, without a family, and without love. It all started about 1 week ago when my parents tried to kill me since i was a buji. I tried not to fight back but it hurted so bad... the way they were beating me and saying nasty curses at me.
"Damn monster! Get the hell outta my house!", my so called dad yelled at me. I just sat on my puddle of demon blood and looked at the monster himself.
My mother just sat there and was pleased as father beat me up some more for staring at him. "That's it dear. Beat her up good", she snickered as she puffed on her cigar. Beaten after beaten, i tried to run away but he just keep tugging on my hair, dragging it until it fell out. My tears just brang out Father's rage.
"please stop, papa.... please", I pleaded, but it made him angrier.
"Shut your damn mouth, you ugly monster!" he said as he attempted to punch me. I dodge but he countered it and kicked me in my face.
"I can't stand being your father... look at you!" He grabbed my face and faced me towards the broken mirror in the living room. "DO YOU LIKE WHAT YOU SEE? A DAMN MONSTER WITH 7 TAILS?!?!??! UGH!", he said. As i looked at the mirror, at my reflection... i dont see a monster... i see a helpless little puppy and an ugly monster with the eyes of a demon grasping it... killing it. He smashed my face against the mirror and kick me unto the floor. "That's it, dear", mother said. She laughed as i tried to stand up. Mother got up from her couch and stomped me to the ground.
"He is right. You dont have our honor no more, Chiyoko. you are worthless to us now." After i heard that, i stopped crying and there was a flaming pit of anger deep inside my stomach, aching to be free.
"*evil laughter* you are a sick little bastard!" father said, attempting to punch me. Then it happened... my anger and rage broke free and my eyes became red. My body grew and my tails widen. I was as big and tall as my father; 7 feet. I looked like a werewolf. As father's fist came closer and closer I ran quick arond him and punched him in his chakra point.
"GAAAH!", father screamed as he went to the floor. That didnt stop me from KILLING HIM. I grabbed him by the collar and said to him "You try to kill your only daughter... you drink... you kill... you steal... and you are ugly! WHO IS THE MONSTER NOW?!" Father's eyes widened with fear. I punched him and sent him flying. What is wrong with me, I thought to myself. When i talked to father... it didnt sound like me at all. Deeper and more aggresive. Mother was screaming as she saw me punching father. She ran for the door but I caught up to her and slashed her throat open.
"Shhhh....", I said to her with a smirk on my face. She fallen to the floor and became a dead body. I killed her. Father began to stand up but then i ran to him with unbelievable speed and sliced him to pieces. After he was murdered, my eyes became yellow and normal again. My human body started to form. I fell to the floor on my knees and started to cry. I killed my family, I thought to myself.
"I killed them" I repeated. "I killed them... I killed them.." As I repeated those horrid words, i started to cry more. "I KILLED THEM!" I yelled.
:"BOOM!" Thunder boomed the horrid night and lightning followed its role. Rain started to pour as I ran out the house. I didnt know where to run, who to go to. I just needed to get out of that house.
9 days and 10 nights.... still lonely, I thought to myself. I lived in a box. It was my new home. Its not the best but I needed shelter. When I was cuddling up with my 7 tails, i heard a growl. As i open my eyes, I saw a fluffy, oranged, 9 tailed buji staring at me. I was scared of the buji. It was scary. It started to sniff me. I stood still and tried not to cry.
"An arctic wolf. Come with me, little one", It said to me. I was confused, but there was no time for questions. I started to follow the fox out of the alleyway, to a better place.
9 days and 10 nights.... and in one day... i found love.
Finally, Itachi came up to me. Compared to me, He was the size of a flea. Itachi looked way up high than whistled for someone. He whistled again and again, but no one showed up.
"Where's the bounty hunter demon I hired?" Itachi yelled. I burped, then took out Izuri's Katana from my mouth. Itachi was mad.
"OMFG! You monster!" Itachi spat on my tail. I put the katana above Itachi's head. I was way angry. Itachi grew the same size as me and we fought. Both of us were very tired. I was about to faint when I heard whispers of all of the gang in my head.
Neka:You can do it Shukaku!
Houkou:Hang tight, dude.
Kaku:Beat that gay person.
Raijuu:We're all proud of you.
Hachi:We'll help you all the way.
Kai:Kick his butt, Believe it!
Dizzy:Go Shukaku, go!
Tara:Good luck.
Chii: Do your best.
Eka-san:Yeah. Show em' whose boss.
Misa:Yay Big Brother.
Naara:Hn. You're powerful for a pervert...
But the last whisper really hit me,
Kyuubi:I believe in you, my friend.
I rose up from my feet and punched Itachi in the stomach.
"That punch was *hic* for blinding my sister forever!" Itachi got back up again. I kicked him.
"THAT was for hiring someone to eat us." Itachi got up again, about to use his Mangekyo sharringan.
"But you did something more worse. You can capture me, eat me, control me, whatever you want. But when you try to hurt my family, friends, and most importantly, my best friend Kyuubi, YOU'RE AS GOOD AS DEAD! Wind Style:Air Bullets!" Itachi flew by into where he belongs to:Prison!
"Anyone ELSE wants a piece of me!?!" I yelled at the rest of the Akatsuki. They all ran back into Japan. Naara looked at me.
"Hn. Not bad for a demon..." Then he left. I fell down to the ground, laying down, when Kyuubi started sitting on my stomach. About time he showed up.
"So, when are you going to be normal sized?" Kyuubi asked.
"Since 4,990 pizzas+1,000,000 tons of Sake+1 giant bounty hunter demon+999 other demons in the bounty hunter=1 big, fat, and happy Tanuki," I calculated everything I ate, "About months and months. You owe me 5 weeks of leadership. I missed you."
"I missed you too, buddy!" Kyuubi said with no emotion. He didn't want to ruin his reputation, "How are we going to take you home in Japan?"
"I have *hic* an idea, but I want you to do something for me." I whispered in Kyuubi's ear. He gotten shocked, then went up to the blinded Misa and kissed her on the lips. I know Kyuubi's gonna kill me, but since Itachi blinded Misa, at least Misa might see her Kyu-Kun for the last time...
