“And that was what I did on the last world,” said the ditzy genie named Mihoshi. “I’m still not sure why every other person only had one child by him show up, and my double had so many. What do you think?” she asked the giant bunny in the cage across from her.
The giant bunny was in fact the Kyuubi no Yoko, imprisoned there sixteen years ago by the Fourth Hokage. And he was slowly opening his eyes. Was she done talking? Dare he hope?
Ever since she had somehow appeared inside the mental construct, looking for the brat to grant some wish to, she had been talking non-stop. The poor demon had lost track of how long, preferring to zone out in the hopes she would either shut up or disappear.
“Um ... no clue,” said Kyuubi, looking at her with eyes nearly void of life.
“Man, that’s going to bug me until I get back to where I started from,” said Mihoshi.
“So, I wonder how I can help this Naruto kid,” said Mihoshi. “He doesn’t have a ton of fiancées and fiancés, does he?” asked Mihoshi.
The fox shook his head, just wanting the pain to go away. “Maybe he’d like it if you could free me?” offered the fox, trying once again to trick her into releasing him. It was such a slow wait for the brat to have enough stress where the demon fox could leak through. The hard part was trying to break free without dying with the brat.
But he was getting closer to it, oh so close.
But he needed to add stress to the brat’s life, maybe make him get some serious bloodlust. Well, I could always tell him why I attacked his shitty village; that’s bound to be good for a few weeks of shits and giggles.
And then it hit him, the perfect plan to add some stress to the brat’s life, get the blond bitch out of his prison, and have some fun.
The question was: would she believe him?
He almost smacked himself with his paw; the blond made Shukaku look like a fucking genius.
“Well, I do know the brat—I mean, young boy is somewhat lonely,” said Kyuubi, trying to sound carrying. He figured he could pull it off, he just had to sound like those crying humans he ate and sometimes squashed on occasion.
“Really?” asked Mihoshi.
The Kyuubi nodded, trying not to smirk. “So maybe you can do that wish for him, like you did for that Rambo guy.”
“Ranma.”
“Whatever,” said the fox. “But make it so no matter whom he chooses, the kids will still be there. Otherwise, he’ll feel sad that any decision he made, made them go poof!”
Mihoshi nodded. “So I should give him the same help I gave Ranma, but keep the kids from going back?”
He nodded. “Just ... copy them or something, if it’ll help,” he said, remembering the brat’s favored technique.
Not that he cared if they were all stuck here or not, but he needed to stay in character if he was going to improve his chances for freedom.
Even if he didn’t get free, it would be worth it to watch the chaos that it generated for his container. It might even stop the fool from chasing after that Uchiha bastard.
Hell, that many children of the brat running around could only spell trouble for the dark-filled Uchiha.
Hell, it’s a win-win for me!
Mihoshi smiled. “I’ll do it!”
The Kyuubi smirked. “Are you sure you can’t free me?”
“Can’t do it,” said Mihoshi. Her bosses were still angry at her for the last door she opened that she wasn’t supposed to. But people seemed to enjoy being Alter-users, or whatever they called themselves.
The fox sighed. So close, but yet so far.
“Wish granted!” said the well-meaning genie.
“Now that that’s done,” said Mihoshi she turned back towards the cage, “we can talk about the latest episode of Sgt. Floaty I saw in this one universe.”
The Kyuubi started to whimper. “Don’t you have to go now?”
“Nah,” she said. “I have another few days before I have to move on. And it’s been so long since I had someone I could talk to like this!”
The Kyuubi sunk to the floor of his cell, wondering if he could hang himself with his own tails.
Outside the sleeping Uzumaki, fresh from having his arm removed from the cast his revised Rasengan had put him in, a wave of energy was pushing outwards, finding any and all females connected to Naruto in what could lead to a happy marriage.
And it was going to be a wild morning when everyone woke up, starting with...
