Shukaku smiled, she had misunderstood but he was willing to tell her, wrapping his tail around himself. “Once… There was only one demon… It was a mighty thing with no real animal look-a-like. It had ten great tails and it was separated into nine different babies… These were us… Our brothers and sisters created an order with our parent, the sage of six paths… After a time, though, we were being used and fear was being spread unjustly, leading us to be sealed in human bodies. I was placed into a child and I will admit I was highly immature at the time…”
“Immature is an understatement…” Kurama chortled at him.
“Shut up,” Shukaku snapped at him then calmed and returned to his story, “I made him fear the humans around him… what they could do… What they would do to him… Made him fear what I would do if I got loose. I wanted to maim, kill, and destroy all those who dare try to control us… It was a disgrace… But… Kurama was in a child too… One that had him conquer and earn my respect. More or less I just co-operated…”
Kurama made kissing noises. Shukaku shot him a glare and Kurama said, “What?! I know you liked him.”
Shukaku sighed and said, “Yeah, he was a great chew toy until he made me his bitch. Though I do respect him… Even if I got ripped away.. I respected him but most of all I respected Kurama’s host… Gaara respected him… Everyone respects the one named Naruto Uzamaki… Even today… But most of the rest is lost… Gaara was my host… He was a Kazekage. Killed your ancestor out of self preservation.” He coughed out a bout of sand from his body. -
Shukaku looked back to Jane as he said, “You are of high honor… The beasts will respect you…” He then looked back over at Kurama and said, “Red furry slut.”
Kurama growled and said, “Hey! That was only once! And the fact that you were the one being a dumbass pervert!”
“Fuzzball skank.”
“Sandy bastard,” Kurama knew this was possibly confusing to the little human and said, “We are buying time, you may help if you wish.” He was open to the invitation, just so Shukaku would last a bit longer. -
Rajikaru looked at Jane and looked down then as she thought. She looked back to her and said, “Gomen Nassai…” She got up and moved into a little nook in the cave where she could no longer be seen.
Shukaku looked at his daughter and then to Jane and said, “I will teach all I can as I am now… Others will come and most likely offer a chance at life but it is not my choice… As much as prolonging my life would be a blessing… It would be a degradation in the eyes of my fellows and especially my daughter…”
Kurama growled at Shukaku and said, “Wimp… It is your choice.” Shukaku looked at him. “Listen,” Kurama spoke in a serious tone as his fur overtook his body once more, “No matter what you choose, you are still one of the originals… No one can take that away.”
Shukaku smiled and said, “hostile even in pacivity… asshole…”
“Baka,” Kurama smirked as he fought back in a manner. -
The robed man thought if he should answer and as they walked he said, “There is a way to save him. I will need you to watch in case I am not around to save the others. Do you understand this?” He waited for a response before he said, “Each of the team will be trained in a different area. It is the area best suited and you will learn how to save them if he accepts it. You will need to teach your team when the time comes.” He made sure it was clear as day that it was important.

The robed figure looked at him and said, “He has no enemies. Peace is killing them.” He started walking to where the pup had came from instead of went. He then spoke, “You can borrow a mask if you wish, if not then that is fine as well.” He knew he was walking in a different direction and even was prepared to get out a spare mask that was prepared, one of a yin and yang symbol but with yin being red instead of black. He did not mind if the student wished to reject the mask, or have another of their own choice. He was being patient and silent, knowing there was one offer more to be made when they arrived.

The sand pulled into her and it seemed to impress Shukaku, a smile on his face and a low growl of approval escaping. Kurama gave a nod of approval to Jane then looked at the entrance to the den, hoping Tsukiakari would return soon. Rajikaru watched her father warily and even loosened some of the sand so Jane would have a slightly easier time. Shukaku looked at his daughter then to Jane and said, “You are performing well for not having it forced upon you.” He gave a sandy smile.

The creature had already lashed out at the small child, claws would be ripping through some of the flesh if the small boy didn’t move. It did that the pencil into right below its eye, not minding until the light shown on its figure into its eye. The scaled flesh was etched in small patches of fur, teeth sharp and covered in blood with a seemingly rounded mouth though straps of flesh held the sides of its mouth to hide more teeth in its gaping maw. Tiny slits on the eyes made tiny pupils visible through a multicolor scheme of bleeding reds and oranges, yellow glowing neon between the darker colors with a near maroon surrounding the iris. It would hiss lowly before a loud roar bellowed out once more and the creature’s slobber spat all over the hall. It took a running start at the source of the light and took a flying leap close to Muri directly at her, claws spread wide like a demonic rat with cat genetics.

Orochimaru didn’t wait until she was recovered and just said, “FOCUS! Place your chakra into your mind.”
Ryū twitched and placed her hands together in the snake seal, using it to focus her chakra as she tried to center it on her mind. She took a deep breath as she tried to ignore the pain. Then Orochimaru started channeling chakra into her, making her feel more pain as she pushed it into her mind. She felt him shove her head first at the kid.
As she fell, she couldn’t control as her jaw as she felt herself slam into the kid and all went black for a moment. As she focused herself as hard as she possibly could, she began to focus into what seemed to be a mental plane between her and the kid. She moved away from what seemed to be her own mind trying to grasp her. The kid before her was so weak mentally they were getting brought in seemingly without a problem, but Ryū could still feel the pain. She huffed as she grabbed her head in this figment created between them, her feeling herself getting drug out of this state.
She blacked out then came to, able to completely see the walls around her. She took quick gasps of air as she shook, this body was starving where hers had been fine. She could see Orochimaru, him looking at her with his yellow eyes with a smirk. She blinked oddly, eyelids were new. Her tooth bit her lip, lips were new too as she tasted her own blood. She couldn’t really control it well and would most likely need to learn to speak properly. She took a deep breath through her newly aquired nose. That was even more new as she could feel the nostrils flare. She couldn’t smile, but she wanted to, her eyebrows showed her wanted look to him as she stared stright into his eyes.
Orochimaru looked at her then his head snapped to one of the tunnels near the room, yipping being heard as well as a thud every now and again. Tsukiakari was sprinting her way and ended up getting into the room and slowed by tumbling head over heels then sitting at Orochimaru’s feet. She panted and said, “Snake man, Unca Shuka is dying. The team is gather.”
Orochimaru smiled and gave her a small pat on the head. Tsukiakari rubbed into it before taking off again at full speed. Ryū didn’t understand what that was all about but she looked back to Orochimaru, eyebrows cocked. Orochimaru said, “You are going to meet your team.”
He gathered a small pack, it containing food for her to nibble at on the way, and handed it to her. She took out some to start nibbling on it, being careful and trying to not bite herself again. He then placed a purple cloak onto her with a clip in the shape of a music note, him placing on a similar cloak then he handed her a mask. She looked at it and it was in the shape of a black widow’s face. Orochimaru placed on a mask that looked like a snake and he motioned for her to follow as they made their way through the tunnels, heading to where the dog came from. -
Orochimaru took the opportunity to strip Ryū while she was asleep. He replaced her clothes with sound based clothes, a black skintight that ran from ankle to neck and to her wrists, a tan t-shirt, and that distinct purple rope tied into a bow. He had to fight through her swarm of very confused and angry kikaichu and managed to take off her grate and the eye tubes out. He was looking at the holes and he set the metal to the side. He looked and poked his fingers in just to see how bad it was. He waved away the angry swarm and went to a different room.
He knelt to a kid he had captured on a previous venture, they looked up at him and were crying. He checked the skin color and looked over the eyes just to make sure they were good. The kid cried more and kept eyes trained on Orochimaru. He moved over and grasped a scalpel, the kid started to scream through a gag in their mouth. He was just about to cut when he heard a sound.
Ryū had woken up and screamed at the fact of missing grate and tubes that she could feel. He returned to her and she panicked still as she said, “WHAT THE HELL?!”
Orochimaru looked at her and said, “I was trying to help you, calm down.”
“WHERE ARE NY TUBES AND GRATE?!” She was shaking and pushing herself to sit, him coming over and pushing her down.
“It is alright,” He assured her and said, “I have them nearby. Let me show you something so you won’t need them anymore.”
“WHAT?!” She snapped, staying down but sounding like she was calming, hissing through her teeth as the adrenalin went down.
He spoke plainly, “Living Corpse Reincarnation. If the host is unsuitable, it will be a about three years until you will need to switch. If you find the perfect body, you can live through their entire life time with theirs or your face. But you must perform it perfect the first time.”
Ryū was completely unready for hearing such a thing then said, “Isn’t that… well… inossile?”
Orochimaru smirked and said, “No. Not at all. It is how I am still alive.”
Ryū froze in thinking on it. She tilted her head back and said, “So… I could lile foreher?” Orochimaru nodded and went back to the other room, bringing over the tied up child he was going to cut the face off of. Ryū forced herself to stand up, it was horribly painful. The kid was already dressed in the same outfit she was put into and she felt the face with her hand. She then said, “I will give it a shot.”
Orochimaru smirked and said, “I will help you.” He stepped behind her and placed his hands onto her shoulders, he took a deep breath and said, “Focus yourself into your jaw. I will disconnect it so this will hurt for a moment. Then swallow them.”
Ryū turned her head and said, “The huck you want ne to do?!”
Orochimaru turned her head gently back forward and placed fingers where her jaw connected to her skull and shoved it. The bones popped and cracked as it came out of place and she yelped in pain. She wanted to collapse but he was forcing her to stand as he grabbed her shoulders again. Her loose jaw moved and flopped, the edging of her skin allowing the bottom jaw to nearly slide out of her mouth. -
Tsukiakaru looked at Haruso and her tails poofed out as she said, “Mr, the team is gathering. There is going to be a funeral soon.” She yipped at him and sat as all of the tails hit off the ground as they wagged, “Unca Shuka is dying.” She seemed way too excited and then said, “Where is Mr demon face?” She would sit and wait.
The robed figure had gotten redressed and was walking out and he said, “What now?”
Tsukiakaru looked and said, “Unca Shuka is dying, all are gathering. Only one will not be permitted. I do good mission!” Her tails caught on fire from rubbing each other so fast as they wagged.
He nodded and said, “Alright, we will be on our way.”
Tsukiakaru got up and took off at nearly the blink of an eye with the stumble right at the beginning. -
The creature growled as the boy grabbed the pencil, moving slowly towards him as it bided its time. The moment it saw him do the Horse sign, it began to sprint at him. Its maw opened and let out a loud growl that could be heard through the entire academy. It moved faster than the small boy but its body looked wide open. As it neared, fur and scales were visible.
Anbu are beginning to file in from the top and bottom floors to search all the halls of the twenty floor academy building.
-
Tiny paws would be heard running through the tunnels as well as loud yipping. There was also echoing sounds of tumbling and falling as it got louder. It was heading right towards his room and zooming past it to the main room as all he’d hear it the thumping and the yips of the daughter of Kurama, without her father. The robed figure was nowhere to be seen, so she stayed in the main room, barking loudly and wagging her tails.
-
Shukaku shook his head and made the sand harden around the fist. He then said, “Infuse your chakra into it. You have bones of nearly similar materials, use this to your advantage and escape the sand. Feel it.” He closed his eyes and seemed to just fall asleep.
Rajikaru whimpered and nudged her father, him waking back up as he placed a claw on her head. She let him pet her head as she tried to keep him awake.
Kurama had a concerned look on his face as he looked at Tsukiakari and whispered, “Have the others gather… This is an important mission.”
Tsukiakari whimpered then nodded, taking off in a full sprint to go find the others. -
Ryū rested for several hours, she had been being given herbal teas until she felt better for the time. Orochimaru even made a meal for her to get her strength up. She thanked him and had eaten it but waited for him to eat before doing anything. Instead, Orochimaru said, “We are going to train…”
Ryū shook her head and said, “Why? You haven’t had anything yet.”
Orochimaru shook his head and said, “You will train, I will eat. Run up and down that nearby cave shaft and dodge the venomous snakes as you do so.”
Ryū got up, still very sore as she looked down the shaft. It was dark in there and the fact she would need to dodge poisonous snakes was going to make it worse. She stood up fully and walked to go into the shaft and started running at top speed, feeling things latching onto her and it creeped her out, her kikaichu throwing sounds so she could see. The so called ‘snakes’ were just roots. She started to try and dodge the roots sticking out. She ended up making it to the end of the corridor but she was a bit dizzy. She ran the whole way back and felt them stinging on her ankles as she tripped over them. She got back to the main room and she dropped to her hands and knees, more sore than before. She wondered what the hell was on those roots.
Orochimaru smirked and had already finished eating. He looked at her and said, “Sleep hard…”
Ryū was down and out for a dreamless sleep. Her body twitching. Orochimaru gave her the antidote but knew it wouldn’t wake her up for a while, just leaving her there. -
Shukaku smiled and looked at Kurama, “She is perfect. I will take it from here.” Kurama waved him like it was alright. Shukaku then had sand float up in front of him as he said, “Touch it… feel it… Take in how it feels, the chakra between the sands. This is the absolute defense that you can grow in time. Harder than steel and more resilient than rubber, yet if you need a soft landing it is soft as a pillow. This will be something you will need and is of the earth element.”
Kurama sat there with his daughter, Rajikaru still pouting in her corner.
