“She was a wolf! Like me!” Kai said excitedly.
“Ssssut up Kai,” I hissed, “Neka, I have work needing to be done. Can I leave Kai with you for now?”
I didn’t wait for an answer but merely walked off in the direction of Kyuubi.
“Hachi, where are you going? Hachi! Stop! Where are you going?” Neka asked angrily.
“Jusssst take care of Kai,” I hissed back.
Recoiling at the glare I gave her, Neka grabbed Kai’s shirt and began to walk him away. I continued after Kyuubi. It was not hard to smell him. His chakra was bleeding out of him with such a force it carried its own smell. I did not catch up with him right away. There were humans around, and it would not be good if I confronted him here. He walked down several alley ways as I shadowed him. He bounded over a fence and into a back alley way. I followed. After three more turns he stopped.
“Hachimata, I know you are there,” Kyuubi said his voice was distorted by anger.
“Sssso what?” I asked.
He turned to stare at me. His eyes were blood red. Even then I felt angry chakra fighting its way into the surrounding air.
“I don’t want to talk to you right now Hachimata,” Kyuubi said fiery.
“If thissss chance goesssss then I will ssssurely never get another chance,” I answered.
“What do you want then?” Kyuubi asked more irritated than angry.
“I want to talk about Shukaku’ssss actionssss.”
“I don’t want to talk about Shukaku right now!” Kyuubi stormed.
“Look how childish you are being. The childish king of the Biju. What a disgrace. Demons off all sortssss are disgraced by your actions,” I taunted.
“Did you follow me just to insult me?” Kyuubi asked anger pumping through him again.
“No I only came to talk about Shukaku. You are the one that is disgracing the name Biju,” I retorted.
I didn’t get a warning’s notice before a fist was dislodging my jaw. I returned the punch with another, and he answered that with another of his own. It went on like this for ten minutes until Kyuubi suddenly stopped.
“Don’t challenge me Hachimata, I am the king for a reason. I am far stronger than you,” Kyuubi said turning around to face a brick wall.
“No. You are the king because you have managed to gain the honor and ressssspect of all those that know you. You are not the king because you are more powerful,” I answered readjusting my jaw into place. There would be a bruise on the bone after this was done.
“Honor…What has honor gotten me? Shukaku…if he has respect for me then why did he do it?”
“He drank the sssssake because it was the only way to free you two. He does ressssspect you, and he is sssyour best friend!”
“No! He is not my friend!”
“Even friends fight, but if you continue thissss all that will be left issss regret.”
“Shut up Hachimata! You have no idea what it is like. I thought he was my best friend. Then he goes and ruins everything!”
“No… and if you keep ssssaying that, then you are the one that betrayed him,” I answered.
“No, Shukaku betrayed me!”
“Baka!”
“You have no right!”
“Shukaku maybe a drunk, but we all have faults. I’m too hard on people. Yours is your temper!”
“SHUT UP HACHI!”
“Hehehe you called me Hachi. Ssssso the real Kyuubi isssss sssssstill in there sssssleeping. Wake up Kyuubi! Your anger is blinding you! Wake up!”
“This is me!”
“No! It’s not! You are not some blood shot angry demon! You are Kyuubi the funny, relaxed demon king with an awkward sense of fashion.”
“I am…..” Kyuubi’s voice was returning to normal, “and what do you mean an awkward sense of fashion?”
“Yes you are, and Shukaku issss your friend. And mine. Don’t let thisssss hate sssseperate you.”
A fist went to my stomach before I had time to react. Things began to fade and my muscles relaxed but didn’t move. Someone was using their fist to prop me up. Darkness ate everything.
{Hachi K.O.}
“Hahahaha Kyuubi you saved us half the work,” Itachi laughed, “Now be a good boy and come with us.”
Someone add on!
