"N-naruto!" Hinata whispered. They hadn't gone far from the city of Geishin before they had been attacked by a group of bandits. Hinata pressed the stone closer to her chest.

"What do you want?" Naruto asked them sharply. They all laughed. It had been a rather dumb question, you could tell by the look in there eyes that there intent was not well. "It's obvious what we want...jewels, gold, money, and any other valuables. Hand them over and we'll consider being...nice." A rather fat man with a wicked looking knife said. He stared at Hinata and she twisted uncomfortably under his gaze. The rest of the group quickly took out there blades as well. "Hey Kiddos! We don't have all day, ya know! Hurry up." A moment of silence stretched on and the bandits became more irritated by the second.

"Is that your decision then?" They circled around Hinata and Naruto like hawks. The fat man grabbed at Hinata. "Ahh! Naruto!" He punched the fat man. "Isn't that stone good for anything? Can't you use it for something?" He asked her in between trying to land punches and dodging the blows coming at him. Hinata could tell he was a rather clumsy fighter. 'What to do!' Hinata panicked. She was rather useless after all. "Naruto!" He grunted a reply rather busy fighting and getting beat pretty badly.

"Catch!" Hinata quickly threw the stone to him but her aim wasn't so good as it hit a bandit on the head, knocking him to the ground. The cloth on the stone came undone and it shimmered in the sun for all eyes to see. "Ah, so theres da treasure!" The fat man ran as fast as he could towards the jewel. "No! Dammit!" Naruto broke free from the grasps of the other bandits and made a mad dash towards the stone as well. Unfortunately for Naruto the fat man threw his knife at him causing Naruto to turn sharply and momentarily lose his balance, as the fat man grasped the stone.

For quite a while the man was cast in a red light that outlined his whole body, as the stone absorbed the little power the man had possessed and killed him. The stone dropped to the ground and Kyuubi appeared yet again inside the stone. "Mmm, delicious. Power." Some the bandits were dumbstruck; the stone had talked? The others who weren't fled in terror of the stone not wanting to have the life sucked right out of them. "Jiru..." One of the bandits called to their dead boss. "How delightful, more food!" As the sun came out again from the clouds Hinata saw the shadow of nine tails as they grasped the legs of the remaining bandits and began to absorbed the life force.

"No, stop!" Hinata ran to Kyuubi and picked up the stone. "No, Hinata don't touch the stone!" Naruto warned. "Well If it isn't the stupid girl. Would you like me to kill you now?" Kyuubi's red eyes flashed with anger. "How dare you look at me again with such an ugly face." He hissed. The insult didn't phase Hinata. "Please, stop!" She pleaded once more. "Have you found me a proper wielder yet?" The fox grinned widely. "Like your mother was...?" He slowly released his shadow tails from the bandits, their bodies slowly slide to the ground; uncouncious.

Hinata glared at the stone. "What-" Naruto stood up."Wielder? Don't you have your own power?" Kyuubi turned his narrow eyes to stare at Naruto. "What awesome power...but stupid." The fox swished its many tails in a disappointed matter. "Course I have my own power but unfortunately in this thing.-" He tapped on the glass of the stone. "I can't use an ounce of power without a source to flow it through, like a body." "A body?"

"Yes, I enjoy drinking energy from humans, but if a strong enough body comes I can merge with the person. Depending on strength and resistence I can totally take over the person's body or they can control me." The fox laughed. "Controlling me isn't very likely, the chances of finding a person strong enough for that is rare. But I suppose just taking over your body would give you enough power to wipe out a huge army or landform depending on your desire, getting me to stop after that is the hard part. Though do keep in mind, I do get hungry and if not properly kept i'll be forced to steal the lives of many humans or I could just take some of your energy."

"So," Naruto thought for a moment. "If I have enough power-" "Which you don't" The fox hissed. "-I could control you?" Kyuubi nodded his head slightly. "Boy, your a genius." The fox snickered. "Although you may want to be sure of how much power you can actually use...over exert yourself and you die. Which wouldn't at all be bad for me...."
"Although using a boy's body isn't favorable, I havn't been out in centuries. Why not try to use the stone?" The fox grinned, swished his tail and once again dissapeared.

O-O-O-O-O

"Hinata, you've used this stupid stone before..How do I make it work?" The two stared at the red stone. "Ummm, I don't remember." Hinata shrugged her shoulders. "I wasn't really thinking at the time; just sorta happened." Naruto groaned. "Great."

He grabbed the stone from her hand and examined it throughly. "Maybe there's some kind of magic words you need to use it!" Hinata stared at him funny. "Naruto-kun, I don't really think thats the case." Naruto just ignored her. "So um open seasame is for opening things and..." He sat there for a while contemplating different words or phrases that could work.

Kyuubi just stare at him from inside the stone, very annoyed. He swished his tails and the stone glowed bright red and it encased Naruto. "W-whats happening?" Hinata asked. She stared at naruto; His eyes became narrow red slits, his teeth took on fine new points, and his nails became claws. Naruto looked at his new features with interest. "Neat!" He turned around and saw many tails that were shadowy in appearence near its back end.

"Having fun?" A deep voice from Naruto's body asked. "N-naruto?" Hinata asked worriedly. Naruto turned and grinned at her, a few of its sharp teeth gleamed in the sun light. "Didn't I tell him he couldn't control me?" Hinata gasped. Kyuubi sneered at her. "Finally out again..I think I might make use of my time." Kyuubi dashed off with Naruto's body. "No, wait!! Come back!" Hinata ran fast after Kyuubi.

"Please!" She pleaded as she nearly caught up with him; she grabbed his coat. Kyuubi flicked one of his tails at her sending her flying into the air a few feet before being knocked to the ground. Her eyes unwillingly closed as she heard his malevolent laugh echoed through her head.

O-O-O-O-O

"Ow.." Hinata rubbed her head and tried to crack open her eyes slightly. Where was she? She sat up quickly but her head spun and was forced to lay back down for a few moments as she recollected where she was and what happened. She groaned and she remembered. But wait where had the fox run off to? She had to get up and find out what he was planning to do in Naruto's body. The only problem was...She was in a forest, at night, and had absolutely no clue where she was or more importantly where Kyuubi was. "Great!" She whispered to herself and she walked off in the direction that Kyuubi had gone off in.
