[>PRESENT!!!

I gasped and bolted upright. I heard a yip of surprise as I did so. I looked around and saw Minato staring at me, concerned. I ignored him and threw off the covers. I slid out if the bed only to fall face first into the floor.

"Damn it...c'mon! Move!" I growled to myself and tried standing. I grabbed the edge of the bed and stood up. I shoved off the bed and stretched my joints quickly.

I dashed to the door and grabbed dads cloak. I yanked it on and ran through the house I was in. I stopped and darted back to the room I was just in. It was my parents old room.

I went to the dresser and opened the bottom drawer. I took out the fake bottom and saw my dad's kunia's. I took them out and placed them into the weapons pouch that was sitting on the end table. I strapped it on and darted back out.

Minato was on my heels as I focused on Kurama. I felt my nails grow and my ears start to shift to my white fox ears. I heard Minato whine and I glanced at him.

I jumped onto the side of a building and then to a roof opposite of it. I crouched on the peak and rested my arms on my knees. My back straight and ears twitching. I sniffed the air, trying to get a lock on a certain smell.

"I see you're awake." Uncle Jiri mused. I ignored him as I locked onto his scent. I growled and went into a pounce position as I tingled.

"Uh....Kota?" I gripped the ledge with my claws and threw myself into the air. I landed on another roof and kept running with perfect balance.

The scent turned to the left and I jumped after it. It smelt strongly of blood and musty clothes. Ugh, it sent my senses haywire but I could still trace it.

I saw a forest blocked off with high fence's. I followed the scent around to gate 15. I crouched and sniffed low to the ground.

As I senses a few people approaching I snarled and I felt my hair bristling. "Kota?" I turned to see Uncle Jiri and Minato. They stopped as we made eye contact. I blinked as I smelt familiar blood.

Suddenly, pain erupted from my abdomen. I fell forward cradling it with my arms as I growled. I let out a roar of pain. "Orochimaru!" I roared and dashed to the fence. I crouched and jumped. I landed on the other side feet first and dashed into the woods, leaving behind a stunned wolf and Sannin.

I dashed through clearings and dodged kunia's being thrown at me. I deflected a few and focused my senses on Naruto.

I locked onto Orochimaru's scent and went faster. 'Kurama. I remember.' I said, trying to get him to talk. Nothing.

I heard Sasukes scream as I came into view. I saw the scent of snake coming from the grass ninja on a far branch. I growled and jumped at him.

"Orochimaru!" I snarled and swiped at him but my nails hit tree bark. I roared in anger and punched the branch, making it shatter. I pushed off and landed next to Sasuke and Sakura.

"Dakota...sensei?" I sighed and looked at her. Her eyes went wide. "N-nar-Naruto did that...too. Except the...the ears." I looked at Naruto in the tree.

"Sakura." I said, knowing Sasuke was already out. "You mustn't tell Naruto about this. I meant it." She nodded. "I'm entrusting this to you because I trust you." She went serious and nodded.
