The Beast Inside (A Naruto Fanfiction) #Wattys2016

Training

I was at the training ground waiting for everyone to come when I thought of something. I went into my mind where I can talk to Isobu. I ran over to his cage where he was waiting for me.

"Isobu, can you answer some questions for me?" I asked

"Yes I can Hanshu, what are your questions?" He said giving me his full attention.

"Will you ever attack me?" I ask

"No you are a good person who has nothing against me and I have nothing against you." Isobu replied

"Gaara has been having problems with his tailed beast Shukaku, can you do anything to help with that?" I ask Isobu

"After training go to Gaara and I'll speak to Shukaku for you." He said smiling at me knowing that it makes me happy.

"I got to go Isobu, I'll talk to you later I think Baki is coming." I apologized and left

***Back to the over world***

"Hey I need to know something." Baki said, I turned around when he said that to give him my attention.

"Are you able to control the three tails, will he be able to break out?" Baki asked

No I would not do that, I like you Hanshu so I would never try to overpower you and break out. Isobu said in my head

"I have control over the three tails, no he won't break out." I said to Baki and he nodded.

"Can you transform into the three tails?" Baki asked

No but you can try to with your powers in your bloodline. Isobu said

I shake my head no

"Ok, the Kazekage would wish to speak to you Hanshu." Baki said

I used the teleportation jutsu and landed outside the Kazekages office. I knocked on the door.

"Come in." A low voice said.

I walked in to see Gaara in his chair looking at me.

"You wanted to see me lord Kazekage." I said showing no fear in my voice.

"Ahh so your Hanshu, nice to meet you." He said with no emotion really while looking down at his paperwork.

"I heard about the test that Baki gave you, he told me you are beyond genin level." Hearing that made me happy.

"I want you to do a mission with chunin, if I hear you did well you will be promoted to chunin ok? The mission will be to guard a shipment of exports which other villages want but I doubt they will send anyone to get it." Gaara explained and I nodded

Now is our chance. Isobu said to me

"Lord Gaara you something off topic?" I asked and he nodded.

"You have Shukaku correct?" I asked and he nodded again.

"Does he try to escape you?" I asked and he nodded again.

"Can I help you with him" I ask and he looked at me with slight interest.

"How would you do that?" He asked.

"I cam enter your mind and I do the rest. Trust me." I said and he thought about it then he nodded.

I came close to him and tried to press my forehead against his but the sand won't let me get close. I used my scale power and made a hole in his sand so I can get through.

When our foreheads touched I closed my eyes and entered his mind.

*** in Gaaras mind***

It is very sandy and nothing is there but a unstable little cage the Shukaku was in bulging out. Next to me was Isobu he walked over and talked to Shukaku.

"Shukaku why are you doing this to Gaara?" Isobi asked.

"I hate all humans for what they have done to me, forcing me into a weak boy with out my saying. They will pay!" Shukaku shouts.

"Can you learn to live with your jinchuuriki like I did. Please do it for me." Isobi asked.

"Gaara is no weak child anymore." I say quietly to defend Gaara.

Shukaku looks at me with hate in his dmall yellow eyes.

"And just who are you!" Shukaku demands to know.

"I am Hanshu Ryuza. I am Isobu's Jinchuuriki." I say and Shukaku squints his eyes.

"Another little brat! I am sorry for you Isobu! You have to have a small, young child for a Jinchuuriki! And then, you like him! Its sad! I almost feel pity for you!" Shukaku laughs humorlessly.

I walk over to Shukaku's cage and placed my hand on his head. I watch him for a minute and then I smirk.

"Such arrogance for a little brat! If only I can get my hands on you! Then we will see who is smirking then!" Shukaku shouts with anger.

"I have grown to like humans, Shukaku. I would like it if you would allow you jinchuuriki to sleep." Isobu says as he walks closer to the cage.

"Your host is not a weak brat. He is the Kazekage for a reason, after all." Isobu continues.

"Fine I'll let him sleep but I will still hate him Isobu!" Shukaku says looking in my direction.

"Good luck with your arrogant brat. You'll need it." Shukaku says and we leave.

*** out of Gaaras mind ***

"Better?" I ask Gaara

"Yeah how did you do that?" He asked giving me a questioning look.

"I am a jinchuuriki like you Gaara, I have Isobu the three tails. Me and him are fine with each other so I had him talk to Shukaku for you. He said he would let you sleep but nothing else. If he gives you any more problems just let me know." I say to Gaara and he smirks.

"Thank you, your mission starts in two days at the east gate don't be late." He says and I leave.
