AU: What if Naruto met the Kyuubi when he was a child? Also what if the Kyuubi wasn't such a "bad" entity and actually helped Naruto develop the right way before he was named genin? How much would really change by having Kurama become a teacher and...

Chapter 2
~3rd Person POV~
Naruto opened his eyes and found myself in the same sewer as last time. He walked down the path following the pipes once again and after what felt awhile, he found the cage again. He looked up and saw that the Kyuubi was sleeping. The water was kind of deep and he didn't like how his mind looked. So, he ended up going inside the cage and sat in front of the Kyuubi with crossed legs.
He closed my eyes as he concentrated and tried changing how his mind looked. It took a lot of concentration, but he had finally visualized what he wanted. He made a mental image of a forest with a lake and a waterfall, the lake being surrounded by rocks in the border where it ended, and bridges that created a path towards the cage.

Of course, he also imagined several trees and bushes along with a tiny river or ponds under the bridges. After that was done, he opened his eyes and saw the scenery change. He looked around and saw the pond and the lake. Naruto really couldn't help but beam a huge radiant smile.
"What are you doing kit?" said the voice from the fox. Naruto jumped a little bit, but soon enough turned and smiled at the fox as he saw him open his eyes. What do you think Kyuubi? asked Naruto as he extended his tiny arm behind him pointing towards the scenery. The Kyuubi's eyes opened fully and once the fox saw all around his eyes had widened just slightly.
Just what was he doing while I was asleep? thought the Kyuubi as he looked at the huge lake and as he looked farther away, noticed something that looked like a waterfall. Kyuubi? asked Naruto. That voice snapped the Kyuubi from his trance. "I like this... It's very.... peaceful?" said the Kyuubi with a bit uncertainty.
Naruto just smiled as he sat down. I don't know if I can make the cage disappear... I'll try though said Naruto as he smiled up to the Kyuubi. The fox just looked at him with wide eyes as he saw Naruto close his eyes and a few seconds later the cage started dissipating.
The Kyuubi as much as much as he tried to deny it, he felt guilt start to consume him. Because of him, Naruto who in his eyes is so much like the Sage of Six Paths.... He couldn't be treated as a hero and instead got abused every day in discreet manners.
Screw my pride... He deserves better thought the Kyuubi as he wrapped his paw around Naruto. Naruto yelped as he was pulled into the Kyuubi somehow soft fur. The Kyuubi nuzzled his cheek against Naruto and Naruto just froze.
