Naruto: Winds and Changes

However by now Naruto was getting angry at how his tenant was acting, sure she always acted like this but there were some things that he just preferred to deal with on his own, and the death of a person who was like a grandfather to him was one of them.

"Look, I know it bothers you miss high-and-mighty demon, but I think I'm entitled to some moments of peace. And I had no desire to listen to any smartass remarks you might make about Ojisan. He's one of the only people who was ever there for me as a child, who helped me deal with all of the shit life threw my way. Unlike you miss-"

Naruto was unable to say anything else as Kyuubi suddenly appeared right next to him and slammed him into a wall, "You think I have not been there for you child?"

Kyuubi hissed out as her hand went around the blonde's neck and lifted him into the air. "Who was it that healed all of the wounds you received from overtraining? Who was the reason poisons don't affect you? Who was it who gave you your larger than average chakra reserves?"

By now Kyuubi was right in Naruto's face with her teeth bared at him, "I did, I gave you all of those things! The only reason you're even alive is because of me! Had it not been for me you would have died that night when that human instructor betrayed you. Or you would have starved to death when you lived on the street and my youki was not there to fix your body. You owe me!"

When this had happened before during the first few times they had met, Naruto had been admittedly frightened. Like last time, Kyuubi was leaking killing intent left and right and her youki was coming off of her body in whisps of red energy. The glare she was giving him was potent enough that it looked like she could burn a whole right through his head.

However by now Naruto had screwed up his courage, he had grown used to her and seen another side that he doubted she even really realized she was showing. This time he was not afraid of the redhead in front of him.

"Had it not been for you I would have I would have never been kicked out of the orphanage, I would have never lived on the street and been forced to find food in the trash. Your youki would have been unnecessary because I would have had people who cared about me. I may have found a family who was willing to adopt me; I would have known the love of a mother and father. Had it not been for you, that night Mizuki would have never betrayed me and chances are I would have passed my Genin exams the first time I took them."

In an act of defiance Naruto released his own youki, and while it was not powerful enough to overpower Kyuubi's. It was enough to give Naruto the strength necessary to pry himself out of the woman's grip, "Were it not for you I would have never had any need for your power because I would have never been placed in a situation where your power was necessary. You can't say that you were there for me when every situation I've ever been in can be laid at your feet, nor can you say it was for me when we both know the only reason you helped me was because your survival was dependent on my own."

By now Kyuubi's arms were slack at her side and her mouth was slightly agape in a look of surprise. However it soon closed and became a thin line as her eyes narrowed, "Get out," she hissed at him, "Get out now! I don't want you to show your face to me again you ungrateful brat!"

"Fine," Naruto replied, "if this is what I get for apologizing to you then maybe it's best if we don't speak anymore." With the last word in the whisker-marked blond disappeared from the seal.

Kyuubi stared at the spot he had left before eventually sinking to the floor, feeling an exhaustion she had never known before.

Damn it! Why the hell am I getting so worked up so some damn human… she blinked before correcting herself. Hanyou! I am the greatest demon to ever exist; I have never cared for others so why the hell do I even give a shit about this one person! Someone who also happens to be my prison! Kyuubi let out an angry snarl.

"Somehow I know you're responsible for this!" She shouted, "What did you do to me! Why do I feel this way! …Answer me damn it!"

'I don't know what you're talking about,' the voice replied and Kyuubi felt rage at the amusement it was laden with. 'I haven't done anything to you…perhaps what you should be asking is what you are doing to yourself.'

"I'm not doing anything!" Kyuubi raged, "This is all your fault! You did something to me! Something that has to do with this seal! I know you did! Fix it now!"

However the voice merely laughed at her, 'You sound like a petulant child Kyuubi…not used to not always getting your way?' before the vixen could respond the voice continued, 'and I have done nothing to you, the seal does nothing to you. What you feel is something of your own making. Perhaps rather than looking to blame others for your problems and feelings, you should try searching yourself for the answers you seek.'

As the voice disappeared Kyuubi seethed in silence before eventually making her way to her bed.

Naruto stood up with a frown. That confrontation could have gone better, though he knew it could have also gone worse. Still he was not quite sure what to do in these kinds of situations, and had no clear way on how to fix this problem. He shook his head before he noticed the time and decided to find Jiraiya.

It did not take long to find the white haired Sannin. All he had to do was follow the man's rather… distinctive laugh. Nor was he surprised to find the man in a nearby tavern, with a lot of alcohol and several women hanging off of him. "Eh? Oi Naruto! Get over here and relax! Allow me to introduce you to these two lovely ladies!"
