7 year old Naruto ran along the silenet street of Kohona, breathing heavely and covered in brusies. He slowed down and staried at the faces of the Hokages, amusment hidden in his bright cerluean eyes.2

"Come, little boy. Come to me..."3

That voice calls him, yet he has no way of reaching it. 4

"Can't. I'll be late."5

He countunied running down the street as rain fell upon them. Soon he came across the acaemdemy and pasued, he'll take care of the brusies he got from the villagers, first. 6

He headed for the bathhroom and, opening his backpack, took out some bandages. He washed his cuts and slowly tied the bandages around his thighs, right arm, left shoulder, and stomace.7

Once he was done, he headed for class, knowing full well he'd be late. As Iruka yelled at him, he thought foundley of the voice in his head, Kitsune, as he calls him, 'cause he likes foxes.8

Usaully it talks to him at night, but latley, Kitsune as been more and more talkative and demanding, wanting him to go see him every chances he gets. Naruto couldn't blame 'him', he belvies, having been taught things aren't always as they seem, 'cause he would probally too, if he hadn't seen or talked to anybody in 7 years, hens says Kitsune.9
