The Tale of the Ultimate Jinchuriki

Prologue pt. 2

Well, this chapter was long overdue. This is going to be a little on the short side as I want to start following the Shippuden timeline. It's not really short considering it's pushing 7k words but still.

Also, I'm sorry if this chapter doesn't meet expectations, it should start getting better by the next chapter.

Y/N POV

After walking around for a bit looking for Konohamaru and his friends I pull out a cigarette and place it in my mouth. Then I make a single handsign with my right hand then do a thumbs up, a small flame then appears above my thumb allowing me to light my cigarette.

Inhaling a bit I then puffed out some of the cigarette smoke. A cocky smirk then makes its way onto my face.

Y/N: Can't believe I wasted time making a jutsu just so I can light my cigarettes.

Matatabi: You should not destroy your lungs, you're a ninja and a ninja needs to be healthy in order to be fully effective in combat.

Y/N: Don't worry Matatabi, because of you guys it heals all the damage smoking causes. Plus, you saw Asuma smoking, and there was this instructor guy back at the Chunin exams who kept coughing a lot.

The people around me give me a weird look making me realize I was talking out loud instead of in my head. Chomei then decided to speak up.

Chomei: And what about your other condition?

The smirk on my face disappears when the mention of my condition comes up.

Chomei: Maybe you should talk with Tsunade, she is a skilled healer.

Y/N(thoughts): I'll be fine. You guys are worried about nothing.

Shukaku: They're right, even I the great Shukaku am worried for my host.

A female voice then speaks in my head.

???: Yes, you should stop smoking, you're too young for something like that, and the condition isn't something to laugh it de-

Y/N(thoughts): Quiet down you old hag.

That definitely set the female off as she started to yell in my head.

???: What did you just say to me!?!?!?!

Y/N(thoughts): Stop acting like you're my mom. No one knows my body better then me and I say I'm fine.

Shukaku: We're in your body too!!!!

???: Plus, I need you alive in order to get to my daughter, and you're close with her so you have to stay alive for her sake you know.

The woman definitely seemed to care about "her" daughter, but I can't believe she's "her" mother. The woman in my head appeared in the tailed beast room a year back and now is obsessed with me finding a way to bring her out so she can see her daughter again which luckily for her I actually knew. The problem is I don't know if I can truly trust her.

Y/N: Whatever, just keep your mouth shut for a while you're giving me a headache.

Again I said it out loud, but I didn't care about the eyes that all stared at me in bewilderment. Being isolated for a while makes you do some weird things such as talking to yourself, but in my case I was actually talking to someone, no one else could see them though.

Y/N: Where are those three.

Rounding a corner I bumped into someone knocking them down. Looking down I saw three kids that looked familiar. The one I knocked down onto his butt had a long blue scarf tied around his neck, his two friends were crouched next to him checking over him.
