I open my eyes.
Well....more like rolled my eyes back in place.
Whatever, I'm in the space.
That, tinny ally of swamp with a red gate at the far end.
There is a blue lamp in front of the red gate thingy, flickering like crazy.
"Just passing by" I muttered.
It's not like the soul can hear it?
Is it naruto's soul? Or Minato? A part of him was supposed to be stuck here to help Naruto if Kuyubi ever threatened his life.
But the jutsu doesn't activate for outsiders?
Huh...cool. part of soul stuck with another soul. Where did I see it....feels alot familiar.
That Basterd Minato did a forbidden jutsu to seal 9 tails, another jutsu to seal part of his to his son's if rescue is needed.
That's one hell of feat.
The very definition of genius.
"That basterd really was genius. ", a heavy cracked voice came from my back.
I'm scared. Too scared to look at my back.
I know who he is.
The pressure. The over bearing anger.
I never knew ,emotions could take any physical form.
No...I can't.....I can't be scared. If I'm scared I'm dead . It's a genjutsu created inside a person, to trape another . To trape a sharingan. Specifically me. Or .....someone else. I'm inside naruto's mind....a kind of inception. My mind is within his , more like trapped in his. So it's a 2 layer inception. It's possible that I'm still under water.
I survived Tsukoyomi 2 times in one day. Recoverd in 3 days.
I can take it.
With "swoop" I turn around.
An over bearing "whoom" hits me in the face.
"You have his eyes." He say.
I'm so fucking scared ....my sharingan is on.
His eyes meet mine.
Those red , sharp, cat eyes eyes. I can't see his form, but a vague silhouette.
"I wish I could gouge them out!" , he let's a growl.
Nope I can't do this.
I slowly get on my knees.
And then my hands on the wet floor.
I get so low that my shoulder are touching the water.
And my ass up.
"I sincerely apologise for any action that may have offended you, kuyubi sama." I say with shaky voice.
For a moment there is silence.
"Your kind once controlled me like a puppet. Yet here you are , HIS kin bowing his head like a slave."
He snifs, as if he smells my very soul.
"To think I went through so much trouble to trap you here. A child daring to touch my chakra . You are not worth my time."
The eyes dim.
"Leave and stay the fuck away from my jinjuriki."
The bijuu tugs his chakra.
He is about to kick me out.
Okey.....wheuuu ....let's do this.
Confusion.....is the emotion right now.
They guy is going nuts right now.
Yeah....im not leaving untill I get my moneys worth.
I am a uchiha after all. Our brain is designed to counter and creat illusions. In mind games we are second to none...except yamanaka, those guys are crazy.
I have cast a genjutsu of my own in this space . More like on my self . Which cause an extra layer of inception. Yes, Kurama HAS kicked me out , but it's in the 2nd layer which he has control over. But it's in the 3rd one I created the process is taking place. so it's taking so long in the 2nd layer it's as if his cancel isn't working.
Kuyubi's chakra settles down after a while.
He has already realised ,what's happening.
I'm still on the floor though, smirking at the ground.
"Get on your feet Uchiha. You have proven your worth", I can hear sarcasm on his voice at this point.
"What do you want?", he asks.
I slowly get up on my feet, still in a bow.
"Nothing. How could such an insignificance one as myself, ask of the mighty kuyubi. Your audience is worth many treasure."
I feel his chakra flare. But it's not anger. .....is he...? Is he flattered?
"Hmm....dangerous yet humble. Didn't know the Uchiha tought manners these days. Whats your name? ,he asks.
Oohhh mu God...its working. I never thought " butter treatment jutsu " would work!
[ "did boss just give it a name ?"
" yes he did"]
"Sasuke Uchiha.", I say to the floor.
"Alright . I shall remember you as the only Uchiha who knew manners. Now scram if ya don't have anything to say. ", he roars
"I...I...you see , Kuyubi sama....I wish to know your name.", I pretend to stutter.
His chakra flares again.
"Kuyubi is what your kind calls me. There is no need for anything else.", he says.
This time I raise my head and meet his eyes.
" kuyubi sama. I....don't know...why the bijuu exist, only that I know that you and other mighty beings were created, and spread across lands. Despite having superior power and intelligence, you have never enslaved the humans or used them for your own device .....its is us wretched spawns that used your kindness against you. But our ancesters us in the dark ....about the truth. The truth of the world. And I.....wish to know."
I smell amusement.
"Kid.....you think you can unveil the truth iof the world by knowing my name? That's the dumbest thing I heard in centuries.", his eyes narrowed.
"No. .....maybe not....but...you know it. Right? I am fool to think ,that you would give me what I want just by asking. It's the ....trust....that I wish to have. The trust that my ancesters shattered to pieces. I wish to know your part ....when you think I deserve it."
Kuyubi ponders.
"Trust ,you say. The day , Hashirama senju enslaved me was the day that I lost nonexistent trust that I had in the humanity . How dare you ask of me that....?", I can feel anger. Okey...im passing my pants here. Good thing kuyubi is ignoring it.
"I understand, Kyubi sama. If you were to be free right this moment. Will you kill us all?", I ask.
"I will eat your flesh and dangle your skin on a pole under the he sun untill its dry and crispy.", he says.
"But will you make us go extinct? Will destroy the lands and every human on the land?" , I ask.
"It's not like have never considered it?", kuyubi chuckles.
"But you will never do it.", I firmly say.
Kurama stays silent.
"Even though you lost trust in us....you will still not eradicate us. Why is that? Kuyubi sama?", I ask with pure curiosity.
"There are 9 of you. You guys could probably eradicate the shinobi world 9 times over. Why is that you don't?"
There is silence.
I hear a sigh.
"It's a shame I have to tell my name to the first human in the world....and it happens to be one if the goddamn uchihas."
!!!????
Ehh....whaa....
"Dont give me that look kid. I'm telling you so that I could kick you out and have my sleep."
The eyes closes. After a minute....it opens again.
"What do I get in return?", he asks.
"I can't promise you anything grand. But I am the last of of the Uchiha. If you give me your name ....my clan, my kin , will owe you a favour? How does that sound?", I ask hassitenly.
"A favour from Uchiha's. Does sound interesting. ", he says.
"My name is Kurama."
Oh....my .....God.....
"Remember it well kid. I don't trust the humans ,and never will....forget about getting it. For knowing my name , you and your generations to come shall owe me ."
My eyes are hazzy. My ganjutsu broke.
It's seems I stretched my coils too much and now .....its hurting me like crazy.
I guess....imma take a nape too.
Let's hope I'm not almost brain dead for the 3rd time. Really though...I wanted to see his red furr , whisker , paws and those big as fat tails....waggling in the air.
What a shame.
Atleast I became friends with Kurama.
