Alright here's the new part but before that I have a question for all of you. I've been planning out the Pain Arc already and I see most parts being over 5,000  So are you guys okay with that or do you want me to try and shorten up. 


Naruto tried to breathe in normally as he saw the great beast that was the three tails closing in on him. Standing on a cliff hanging over the Great Salt Lake, he had called out to the beast saying he wanted to talk. Kakashi, Zabuza and Haku were hidden in some nearby trees masking their charka just in case. Sitting with them were three of his clones gathering Sage Mode just in case.

Standing at most a hundred or so feet from Naruto was the three tails. He could now truly see the massive size and odd features of the beast. It looked also like a giant snapping turtle if you didn't care about the three tails it had. With piercing eyes and a stern gaze Naruto felt compelled to talk.

"We have come in peace," announced Naruto speaking as loud as he could. "My hearing is just fine. Speak in your normal tone human," said Isobu as all the humans nearby were amazed. They expected even starting a conversation with Isobu to be difficult, but it seemed more than willing to talk.

"Ok, great one," said Naruto with a bow doing his best to be polite. "Great one? You call me that even while you house my sibling, my strongest one at that." "I told you," said Kurama inside of Naruto. "Shut up, I need to focus right now," whispered Naruto.

"Did you say something?" asked Isobu as Naruto panicked, quick on his feet though he already had a response. "Um...No I was just talking to my roommate." "Ah yes, my eldest brother can be a handful." Naruto felt a low growl inside him as Isobu spoke again. "Don't growl brother you know you are."

Naruto smiled at those words while Kurama growled again. "I did not come here just to speak about my eldest brother though, what do you want Human?" asked Isobu as Naruto took a deep breath in. Hiding in the bushes Kakashi, Zabuza, and Haku sat worried hoping Naruto wouldn't mess up.

"We came here to ask you to come back to our village. There is a group called the Akatsuki hunting down Tailed Beast. We seek to stop them by protecting the Tailed Beast." Isobu sat in thought for a few moments before it began to talk. "If you seek to protect me then why does one of your hidden companions' leak so much bloodlust?"

Naruto's eyes widened as he looked over to where Kakashi was hidden. He could finally sense the high levels of bloodlust coming from his Sensei, all of it directed at Isobu. Kakashi also looked alarm not even realizing that he was leaking so much. Now though it was too late to stop it. They just had to trust that Naruto could talk their way out of this.

"It's not directed at...Um you...How should I say this...You were kind of involved with the death of his teammate...But it wasn't you that killed her it was...Well it was Kiri, but they kind of used you to do it," said Naruto fumbling over his words as he tried to explain it.

Zabuza and Haku sat amazed. How didn't they realize that the three tails had done something to Kakashi in the past. That was the reason for his bloodlust and need to kill the beast. That explained the line about his teammate in Tsunade's office as well. Of course, he wanted to get vengeance for his teammate, it was the ninja way after all.

"I am sorry then." stated the Three Tails. Naruto stood amazed at those simple words. A Tailed Beast saying sorry was unexpected to say the least, and for what it was too. "She really is different from you isn't she," Naruto said to Kurama. "Indeed, she was always the nicest of my siblings," agreed Kurama.

"Kiri has forced me to do many things I wouldn't do on my own free will. I'm sorry that one of those things led to the death of your hidden companion." apologized Isobu. Stepping out of the shadows of the trees came Kakashi. His face seemed to hold a new light to it as he began to speak. "I accept your apology."
