Hey guys I know it's been a long time, but I have a good reason this time! Really! My laptop decided to go on vacation so I couldn't upload anything.. anyway since it has been so long I decided to write a longer chapter than normal.

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto *pouts*

Chapter 3: The mask appears.

Slowly Naruto opens his eyes to the bright white ceiling. Blinking a few times he looks around him to see that he is in the hospital. When he looks to his right he sees the third hokage sitting on a chair looking at him with worried eyes. Behind him he sees two ANBU standing. He remembers them as the ones who always guarded him before he went to the ninja academy.

"How are you feeling Naruto?" asks the hokage. Naruto looks back at him and answers: "I'm fine Jiji. A little sore but that's al." The hokage sighs relieved. "Good. Do you remember anything of what happened before you blacked out?" Naruto thinks and then remembers how he went into his mindscape in the first place. "Yes. I was attacked like I always am on my birthday."

'Hey kyuu should I tell them I know about you?' Naruto asks Kyuubi. "No. you should wait. Don't worry about it now alright, I will explain everything when you get back in here." He said. 'Alright.' With that he looked in the hokage's eyes with big innocent eyes that made him look like a kicked puppy. "Why do they always attack me Jiji? Your birthday should be a happy day right?" he asks. Gulping the hokage looks at the boy before him with sad eyes. 'I wish I could tell him but Minato asked me not to. Besides he would think of himself as the demon and I don't want that to happen.' Sighing the hokage answered: "I don't know Naruto, but do you remember any of their faces? That way we can arrest them."

Naruto sighs inside his mind when he hears the hokage lie to him. 'I know he wants to protect me but really I would rather have him tell me the truth then lying to me.' "Your right kit but it would be better later if he doesn't tell you that I am sealed in you. Don't ask why, I will explain later." Kyuubi tells him. Sighing Naruto decides to answer the hokage. "I'm sorry Jiji but I can't remember them. It was too dark to really see anything." "I understand Naruto." The hokage wants to say more but is interrupted by the ANBU wearing an weasel mask. "I'm sorry hokage-sama but we have already arrested the attackers and send them to Ibiki." He says. The hokage looks at both the ANBU with grateful eyes. "Alright then Naruto you may go home now. Weasel-kun and Inu-kun will escort you so you can't be attacked again." The hokage says standing up.

Smiling Naruto jumps off his bed with as much energy as he always has, which makes the other three people in the room relax completely knowing he was really alright. Naruto runs to the hokage and hugs him. "Arrigato jiji. Good night." He says grinning like an idiot. The hokage smiles and says: "It's alright Naruto. Good night." While hugging him back. Letting go of each other the hokage smiles one last time before shunsinning (spelling?) away.

"Well we should go as well, right Naruto-kun?" asks Weasel. Naruto looks at him and nods. Inu walks towards him and lays his hand on his shoulder. "Ready?" he asks. Naruto nods. And feels the pull off his body being transported at a high speed. When the pull stops he sees that they're in his apartment. For as far as you could call it that. It's in the far back of Konoha in the poorest district. His house is full off cracks with gravity all over it, spelling curse words meant for him.

"Alright Naruto-kun we will leave now. Try to get some rest after all tomorrow you will meet your team." Inu says. Naruto looks at them and nods smiling at them. "Yes thank you for saving me." He says. The ANBU nod back. Waving good bye they shunshin away.

Sighing Naruto turns to his rundown house and walks in. Walking to his kitchen he makes some instant raman. Sitting down on an old chair he eats his raman. "Kit when you're done go to bed and come to me." Kyuubi says. 'Alright.' 'Hehe just wait kit I'm going to make you scream my name hehe.' Were Kyuubi's perverted thoughts. Naruto not knowing what Kyuubi was thinking just happily slurped his raman in his mouth.

When he was done eating he threw away the cup and chopsticks and went to his bedroom. There he slipped of his clothes and put on a shirt two times to big and brushed his teeth. Then he went to bed, closed his eyes and went into his mindscape not knowing he what he was about to lose…..

When he opened his eyes he saw the familiar walls of his mindscape, that looked like a sewer. He began to walk to where he knew Kyuubi's cage was. After about 4 minutes walking he saw the bars of Kyuubi's cage coming in sight and began to run to them. He stopped in front of the huge cage. "Kyuubi! Are you in here?" he screams waiting for an answer. *sigh* "Where else should I be?" said Kyuubi while walking out from the shadows. Naruto begins to pout. "I don't know I mean last time you were already here waiting for me." He began to whine. Kyuubi chuckled while thinking that if he continued to look so adorable he would just rape him.

"Why did you want me to come here Kyuu?" Naruto's curious voice jolted him out of his thoughts. "Why do you call me that? It makes me look like a pushy that you can cuddle, do I look like a pushy to you?" He said with a playful growl in his voice. Naruto looked up with mischievous eyes. He began to nod his head heavily. "Yes! A real big pushy! And only mine, no one else can cuddle you!" He grins. Not knowing how possessive he was being. The possessiveness in Naruto's voice made Kyuubi proud but at the same time extremely horny while wanting to dominate the little blond to know that he was supposed to be so possessive, not him. Pushing away those thoughts he turned his attention back to Naruto. Grinning he began to explain why he called him here. "The reason I called you here was because it's time that I claim you as mine. You said you will be my mate so we will need begin the mating process. Another thing is that I need to explain to you why I didn't want you to tell the hokage the truth. Alright?" Naruto looks at him with a red face, blushing at the thought of the mating process. While young he wasn't as naïve and innocent as everyone thinks he is. He has read something about mating between animals and he had so his suspicions that this was not very different.

Seeing Naruto nod his head he continued to explain to him. "Well you see I have already told you your personality will change a bit. However most likely if the village was to know you where smarter and stronger than you are now, they will be even more aggressive towards you. So to make sure that wouldn't happen you are going to have to pretend like you are still the idiot that everyone thinks you are now. After all I know you already are pretending to be more of an idiot than you actually are. So all you've to do is continuing this little mask of yours, however it will be more important now since you'll be far more smarter and stronger. Do you understand?"

Naruto listened intently, blushing a little bit when he heard Kyuubi knew he was dumbing himself down a little bit. 'So I will need to form my little pretending into a thick mask he? Well it does make sense so…' "Alright! I'll do it! Dattebyo!" (I'm sure that wasn't the way you spell it. If you know how to tell me please then I will correct it) Kyuubi smirks. "Good then how about we will start the mating process, hmm?" Naruto immediately begins to blush. "But how are we going to do that? I-I'm sure it's not going to fit as you are now." he says stuttering. Kyuubi bursts into a laughing fit. "Well look at that. It seems you aren't as naïve and innocent as I thought. *smirks* Good. And don't worry I've a human form. When we have mated and you have become a demon you will have an animal form like me, so don't worry you'll be able to it me as I'm now but that will be for another time."

Naruto looks at him with a red face and timidly nods. Kyuubi smirks and the he is surrounded in red light. When the red light fades Naruto looks with big eyes and drooling mouth at the naked god in front of him. Kyuubi has long blood red hair that reaches the end of his back, blood red slitted eyes that looked like he was about to devour him 'What he most likely is', pale lips that looked soft yet strong, a body that any man would kill for to have, claws at his hands and feet and last but absolutely not least was his pride that stood in its full length and looked like it was as hard as the hardest stone. 'Even though he is in his human shape I'm still not sure if it's going to fit'. And he had a good reason for that since in Kyuubi in his animal shape is about 30 inches and now in his human shape he was about 10 and a half inches.

"Let the parted get started Naruto." Kyuubi purrs seductively.
