Chapter Text

*Early morning*

*Starts the scene to the perspective of [][][][][][]'s uvula*

"*Yawn* Ah. Another day for me to stay in this forest again.", A voice had come out from the throat as the silhoutte finally woke up.

*Changing the scene to Kurama currently laying down on the ground*

"*Sighs* And doing usual stuff as always.", Kurama had already expected the usual outcome.

He slowly stands up so he can start doing his usual business. Though, he admits he is getting bored of staying in the forest for too long. The bijuu fox looks up to his storage where he covers all the supplies by his tail. Additionally, he usually puts those stuffs in a bush which it has burnt by himself as a sign of his own territory.

*Kurama looks down at his snout*

"Hey, you in my nose! Are you already up?!", Kurama wondered about you.

*Kurama's nose moving*

"Yes. I'm up. What do you need?", you responded instantly and wondered about the fox's next plan.

The fox brielfy goes silent while he walks along the forest. He shows his stubborn attitude, though you aren't able to see it because you are currently inside his nose, as he prefers not to respond with your question, though he gladly satisfies your answer to be somewhat responsive.

*Kurama adjusts his massive size, suitable enough to blend himself in the forest.*

"*Looks at his nose* Don't rush me, kid. I am currently not in the mood answering you. I'm too unfamiliar with this world.", he admitted his denial of answering you.

*Kurama suddenly stops and Kurama's ears twitching*

"*Closes eyes* Hmmm..... I hear something, not far from here.", Kurama detected something conspicuous.

He confidentially leaps from where he has stood. He senses a living thing, wandering within the forest. He quickly climbs himself up to a tall trees and he begins to walk in there, just to know where the sound has heard.

*Kurama is leaping branch by branch.*

*Kurama's nose moving.*

"Kurama, do you sense something dangerous in the forest?", you asked the leaping fox.

Annoyed, he tries to ignore your question as he prioritizes his own investigation. From there, he resumes leaping branch by branch, until there are no more trees for him to do so. As a result, Kurama has no other choice but to adjust his form, just to keep things going for him.

*Kurama changes his hand into realistc fox by his jutsu.*

As he has done changing his form, he enters the area where he finds something in there. He hides himself in order for his targets not to see him. In other words, Kurama prefers for them to be out of sight, just by the usual naked eye.

*Kurama looks sharply.*

"Hmph.... There, they are.....", he grinded his sharp jaws upon seeing them.

Though the sight of horizon is yet to be significantly far from where he is hiding himself, he senses up something unusual on those to whom he seeks. From there, he can also feel about the upcoming events that might happen in the forest.

*Kurama growling silently.*

*Kurama's nose moving*

"What's on going on, Kurama? I am sure you are quite serious about yourself, sensing something.", you had kept asking him similar question throughout his immediate investigation.

*Kurama looks at his nose*

"Just be quiet, kid. *Growl* Mmmmfff?! *Kurama's nostrils widen**Closes eyes and sniffs* What are you doing down there, anyway?", Kurama's nose had kept twitching.

*Zooming into Kurama's left nostril*

*Inside Kurama's nose*

*The place is mostly cleaned but there are some mucus sticking in the around the nasal walls, and few amount of nose hairs.*

From the depths of the fox's nasal passages, you are currently eating your breakfast. While eating, the scent has fumed the affected area. Because of the situation, it keeps stimulating Kurama's nasal walls that it obviously detects another scent, aside the one from outside. This time, the scent is keeping the fox interrupted from his immediate activity. Addtionally, it makes Kurama's nose hairs waving gently as the aroma has relaxed the mentioned part.

*Kurama's nasal passage keeps twitching*

"*Sniffs* I smell food fuming in my nose. What are you eating?", the fox wondered your meal.

"I am just eating my breakfast. I'm sorry for that. I was hungry because I didn't eat anything yesterday.", you atoned your meddle to the fox.

"*Growl* Fine. Just eat somewhere else other than my nose. You're disrupting my suspicions in here.", Kurama accepted your apology.

As per the bijuu fox's instruction, you stand up and carefully walk pass his nasal passage. Of course, you walk slowly as you don't want to make Kurama sneeze because of his nose being too sensitive.

*While walking, you cover up your remaining food*

"(Maybe I should find another place else where he doesn't react easily that much.)", you whispered yourself whilst tried to avoid any sticky mucus om the fox's nasal wall.

*You hold his nasal walls while walking and as a support for your movement.*

*Zooming out from Kurama's left nasal passages.*

*Outside*

"*Sniffs gently* Ah. That's much better.", Kurama was relieved from such distracting sense you had made.

He resumes sneaking himself on the people. In order to see better, Kurama bravely approach closer. Of course, his excellent agility restrains the sounds of his movement from being detected to whom he seeks.

*Kurama changes his realistic frontal paws back to his own hands.*

*Kurama hides in the trees whilst keeping the bunch of leaves intact from falling as he uses his speed to be alertive of sneaking around.*

After he finds better spot, he narrows his eyes to concentrate the actiivty of such targeted people. In addition to, his eyes glow in the dark, so he can maintain his optimized vision but he carefully hides it, just to make other creature unnoticed of his presence.

*Kurama is watching the suspicious people digging on the area.*

"Those people again..... *Grinds his jaws* Why are they digging in that area? Are they looking for something? *Growl*", the fox wanted to interrogate them.

Due to his threatening apperance, he changes his mind not to interfere them. Though, the fox doesn't want to slip this activity. Obviously, the people might get frightened if Kurama appears himself before them. He climbs down from the tree and sneakily go out from his own investigation for now, at least.

*Kurama leaps off from the stem of the tree and he rinses off the leaves from his furs.*

"*Growl* Perhaps I'll go back to them later. I already have their scent. *Sniffs*", Kurama walked away from the activity.

He goes back to his original form but he doesn't change his size back to original. He looks up to those animals feeding their siblings for breakfast, or maybe, their routinely meal schedule. Despite his monstrous appearance, he grins as he can see those aformentioned creatures enjoying its respective lives peacefully.

*Kurama is passing through various animal habitats and environment. The animals look happy upon seeing his oddly appearance.*

"*Grins* Those animals are really interesting to look at. *Rumbles* Oh...... I can feel myself that I'm hungry.", Kurama realized he hadn't taken his morning meal due to his immediate activity.

He places his hand as he can feel his stomach empty. He has almost forgotten he needs food, in order to continue his activity throughout the morning. Kurama tries to find a good spot for him to, at least, relieve his stomach from such progressive hunger.

"*Growl* (I wonder where is that kid living in my head up to now. I haven't heard its voice for quite some time now.)", he looked at his nose in order to know your whereabouts.

"Hey, kid. Where are you now?", he wondered your current location.

Kurama reminds himself that he has ordered you to eat somewhere other than his nose, because you are interrupting his sense of smell upon figuring out something. He tries to sniff you inside his own head. On the contrary, he has detected neither any movements nor any scent from your identity.

*A sudden wind has come out from Kurama's mouth as the fox hasn't spoken in all of a sudden.*

"I'm right here, Kurama.", you suddenly answered from out of nowhere.

Kurama widens his eyes upon knowing that he can feel his maw moving involuntarily, as he doesn't speak whilst sniffing.

*Kurama is looking at his snout*

"*Growl* What are you doing in my mouth? I can't even sense you in there. What's on in there?", Kurama was shocked why he hadn't detected you.

*Kurama opens his mouth and zooming into it.*

*Kurama's maw*

Inside, you are currently hanging on his uvula. You have hanged your improvised bench which is able to hold itself from the ceiling. Of course, you have binded the thing onto the bijuu fox's soft palette, near the root of his uvula, though unharmed for Kurama. Obviously, you have resumed your daily meal while sitting on the hanging bench, sticked into his uvula.

"I'm just eating while hanging myself onto your hangy thingy (read: Kurama's uvula). I'd say this *Touches Kurama's uvula* thingy is quite sturdy. Now wonder I can swing my bench and watch myself from the perspective of your mouth.", you were obviously enjoyed to take view from the fox's maw.

On the other hand, Kurama has gone silent as he doesn't want to be furious. Of course, the fox isn't far away from the animals as he forbids himself not to be violent nearby to it. Nevertheless, he shows his temper to be thin enough to scold you.

As for the solution, he tries a to find perfect spot away from the animals. He also wants to tell you something about his own thoughts.

*Kurama sits on the perfect spots he has recently found.*

*Kurama looks at his snout.*

"Listen here, kid! I know I let you stay in my head. But please, Stop playing with my uvula without my permission, would you?! You are making me growl uncontrollably! *Growl*", Kurama could still feel his uvula being stimulated.

*A soundwave has come out from Kurama's snout.*

"I'm sorry, Kurama. I didn't know you got distracted of your speech. Perhaps I would have to go out from your head so I could no longer bother you.", you atoned your guilt on him.

You force Kurama to spit you out from his mouth. Subsequently, Kurama has expelled you out from his maw upon your request. As you have finally gone out from his mouth, you are covered by his saliva and you immediately wash yourself. Moveover, the hanged bench has also expelled by the bijuu fox from his stimulated uvula. Upon facing Kurama, you can see the bijuu fox's expression being furious on what you have done to him.

*Dialogue*

Kurama: You know, kid. I expected that you should've limit yourself, doing something in my head.

*You are currently washing your body to get rid off Kurama's excessive saliva.*

You: But... but.. Kurama. *Scrubs yourself using thick towel* I didn't know you were annoyed of my meddle. You should have told me a while ago.

Kurama: *Growl* Look, kid. Just because I give you some shelter doesn't mean you are free to meddle my body without my permission. I'm not a house, kid. I am Kurama, the most feared demon beast, have been ever created by my father.

*Kurama releases his fiery chakra*

You: *Sigh* I'm terribly sorry for the trouble I cause, Kurama.

Kurama: You should be, kid.

You: I guess I have to leave you from now on.....

Kurama: *Grinnding his teeth as he is still angry at you.*

*You are packing your things up*

You: I'll better get going. Thanks for the shelter, Kurama.

Kurama: *Growl*

*You have left the area*

*Dialogue ended*

"*Rumbles* Nngghh..... I'm really hungry. Must find food somewhere in here.*Sniffs*", the fox searched something edible.

He looks around the area whether there are any food, edible for him to be consumed. Part by part, he hasn't found anything yet. Anyhow, he notices that there are other substances laid waste within the area. Of course, Kurama knows that most of it are definitely toxic to most living creatures. But as for him, he considers himself to be far more superior than any living things around.

*Kurama takes a sample of one type of substance.*

"*Tastes* Hmm.. Yeah. Those are really not for such weakling creatures. *Growls* Maybe I should go outside and look around..... as usual.", Kurama decided to go out.

He already admits that the place he stays in is more complicated. Even though the area is considered safe, the place isn't friendly for normal humans to live it. On the contrary, the fox smiles himself that the place is only meant to the ones, like him, who are compatible to reside.

*Kurama is going outside.*

"Heh. I should mark this place as if the area is already claimed by me.", he put his own signature mark before leaving his new hideout.

The fox already knows about the laws of nature as he has learned such applicable standards by the animals he has met.

*Changing the scene to Kurama walking to the forest.*

Back in the forest, Kurama has started to search food for him to be satisfied. There, he shakens up every single tree he encounters upon hoping for any resources to be fallen before him. Of course, the fox needs at least huge amount of food as the size of his body is utterly big, even if Kurama changes his size.

*Kurama keeps shaking the trees.*

*Fruits are falling.*

"Hmm. I need to find more food aside from these trees.", Kurama was having hard time finding resources.

However, he still manages to keep up searching other food. As he further does this without caution, some animals have protested about his recklessness. Subsequently, the animals are complaining Kurama for not asking permission.

*Animals are howling their complaint towards Kurama.*

"Nngghh.... Alright, alright! Fine! I'll find somewhere else than here! Sheesh, these animals are too sensitive!", Kurama finally surrendered himself.

He stops searching for food he needs to survive in the wilderness. He immediately leaves the area where animals have gathered. The fox is ashamed of his reckless behaviour. For sure, he doesn't want to have conflict with such local creatures.

"Ugh.... First, those idiot villagers and now..... them. *Sigh* Now I really need some companion to live in. Though, I have my own area to live.", Kurama complained of how the world was too rude for his presence.

"*Scream* Help!", a voice was desperately hoping for help.

Kurama's ears stands up as he definitely hears a voice nearby him. The fox doesn't hesitate to approach quickly to the voice he heard. He adjusts his body size, once more, just to be compatible in the wilderness and also, to be more realistic.

"*Growl* I guess I'm going to help that kid, again!", Kurama knew your familiar voice as he had already sensed you.

The fox leaps up into the tree, just to conceal himself from any unwanted creatures that might encounter him. There, branch by branch, he recklessly breaks most of it as he prioritizes you more than anything.

"*Growl* I need that kid. That person is my only hope for this stupid world.", Kurama already despised most of the creature he encountered.

*Eventually, the scent has fumed nearby Kurama.*

*Changing the scene to Kurama's snout*

"*Sniffs* Ah. I can sense the kid nearby. Hang on, kid! I'm coming for you..", Kurama leaped out from the tree.

*Changing the scene where Kurama lands to the area.*

Upon landing, Kurama is able to see you far enough from his point. The fox tries to get closer as he definitely needs you. However, his furs have started to get goosebumps upon going closer to you.

"*Sniffs* Grr... Looks like those wolves are trying to get you.", Kurama realized that you were indeed in danger.

He tries to remember of what you have said to him. Though, he can recall of himself, letting you live inside him through his nose.

"Grrr..... I should have never let that kid go out of itself.", Kurama blamed his own arrogance.

As for all of that, Kurama still continues to approach himself closer to you.

*Kurama is running closer.*

"I'm coming!", Kurama changed back to his old self.

*Changing the scene to you.*

Meanwhile, you are currently surrounded by the pack of wolves as they have cornered you onto the unusual tree. You are able to recall that the tree, behind you, is dangerous. There are saps secreted out from the plant. Those substances contain a highly-concentrated poison which can exterminate most of living creatures with just a physical contact. Moreover, there are thorns on its stem as it can fatally sting to those who are foolish enough to be pinned by it.

*Wolves are growling in front of you.*

"What am I going to do? I can't climb to the tree. It contains thorns and those saps of it are really toxic.", you were losing hope from the moment you had no place for you to escape.

The pack is slowly getting closer as if they are giving you time of saying anything before completely being slaughtered. You can see their reddish eyes glowing brightly as they are hunting food, enough to make their hunger sated.

"*Panting* Please....... I'm too young to be end like this.... *Panting*", you closed your eyes as you were trying to accept your sealing fate.

*Anothet beast is howling*

"Not on my watch, you weakling dogs!", a voice quickly taunted the pack of wolves.

Eventually, the entire pack pauses their attention to you as all of it have turned their heads onto someone else. Obviously, the pack has changed their formation as if they are trying to change their stragtegy. A wolf leader howls as it senses another predator. The leader thinks that the other predator has had intention to steal their newfound food (read: you) as it commands its brethren to be on guard.

*Wolf leader howls again.*

"*Giggling* Is thal all, lousy wolf?", the voice further taunted the wolf.

You can see a titanic beast leaping from out of nowhere. From a distant, you can see his nine tails blocking out the sun. While the beast is leaping, you can hear his eyes glowing red, brighter than the wolves' eyes, as if you are more terrified to see it.

*Changing the scene to the fox's paw landing on the ground*

*A beast has landed onto the ground.*

Upon landing, the beast has trembled the ground by his tremendous weight, forcing the trees and nearby structures shaking. There, the wolves are losing their balance as they can't handle such massive quake.

*Changing the scene to you*

Meanwhile, you have felt the same as the wolves facing to another predator. You have tripped yourself to the ground. You can see them, trying to regain their balance as they have been affected by it the most.

"*Sighs* At least, I didn't tripped to the tree.", you stood up and quickly made distance.

As you have stood up, you can see the beast glowing its eyes fiercely and brightly. Its brightness is far more threatening than the pack altogether. You can also see his teeth grinding with anger that his mouth is starting to drool from the inside as he is already hungry. You can hear his deep breath from a distant as you can feel his anger, thirsting for wrath. You can feel his aura coming out from his massive body.

*Changing the perspective to Kurama's maw from the inside.*

"Now...... Get out...... or FEEL MY WRATH!! *Bellows*", his immense aura had risen exponentially.

*Changing the scene to Kurama howling at the pack of wolves fiercely*

His aura is too great that nearby trees and bushes are forced to be blown away by his rage. Most of the animals, nearby the area, have run for their lives, away from the beast's deafening howl. As for the wolves, they are suffered the most damage as the members are now fleeing for their lives. Their fears have started to form each in their minds upon realizing that the beast latches his terror in each of them individually. As for the leader of the pack, it tries to resist such powerful howl. However, the beast's howl overwhelms the leader of the wolf that the latter is now forced to run for its own life, as well.

*Wolf leader finally loses its arrogance and confidence.*

On the other hand, you are hoping for the beast to finally stop howling as the pack is already gone.

"Nggghhh.... I can't handle much longer.", you were trying to resist the massive soundwave of it.

*Wind stops*

The wind has finally gone steady as the threatening howl of the beast.

"*Panting* At last....... He already stopped. *Panting*", you were glad that his howl was finally over.

You try to see the beast, in front of you. You can see his nine tails wagging as if he finally sees you, just fine. You can feel his heart caring for you. You just realize that the beast is going to save you from them.

"I-Is that you..... Kurama....?", you called his name upon realizing his signature appearance.

You slowly come closer to him, even though the beast is still in his threatening form. You don't mind about his frightening appearance, just as you want to see him again.

"*I finally found you kid. It's me, Kurama. I'm sorry for being rude to you earlier.", the fox finally greeted you.

You are happy that he finally comes to save you. However, your vision is getting blurry that your body is collapsing the longer you stare at the Kurama.

"........ You've come to save me, Thank you......", you suddenly passed out because your body had lost its strength to continue.

*You collapse in front of Kurama.*

"*Sigh* No, kid. You musn't go.", Kurama immediately approached to you.

*Kurama steps forward.*

He presses his paw gently onto you, so no one be able to sense your scent. Your unconscious body is, indeed, vulnerable as Kurama's ears are twitching intensely.

"*Growl* Blasted. I need to take this kid out from those stupid predators.", Kurama quickly picked you up.

Your scent has fumed from your body as it allures much attention for those who have wanted to claim you as their food. Kurama hears footsteps of predators, coming closer, as they have been called to you.

"*Sniffs* Ah. I gonna be honest here, kid. You have satisfying scent. It makes me think I should eat you before they claim you.", Kurama was already hungry that he had drools coming out from his maw.

Though, he shakes his head as he is resisting his hunger, just for you to be safe. He deeply covers you with his paws, in order to prevent the scent from spreading its sense. In addition to, his paws are going to absorb your scent, so the predators are not going to claim you.

*Kurama prays for your safety and uses his jutsu to transfer your scent into his paws.*

*Kurama is done of his pray. He picks you up by his hand and he places you, right in front of his nose.*

*Changing the scene to you, facing to his two nostrils.*

"*Sniffs* Ah. The scent of yours is gone. I should get you back to my hideout.", Kurama moved out from the area.

Even though, the fox is really hungry. He tries not to be tempted eating you. He admits your scent is definitely attractive for predators. He cannot deny it because he considers himself to be one of them. However, Kurama has no intention to do harm on you.

*Kurama is running at his original size.*

As he runs quickly, he doesn't care timbering down all the trees blocking on his way. Of course, he reminds himself that there are animals living in those plants he timbered. On the contrary, he reminds himself those animals are somehow rude to him, even though he is protecting them, before you come along.

"(Hmph. I'm not going to atone myself from this one. They already get what they deserve.)", the fox reasoned out.

*Kurama finally goes back to his "home".*

Back to his hidden area, Kurama places you beside his paw, just to cover you from the chilling winds outside. He knows he must not accidentally transfer your scent back to you, or the problem may rise again.

*The winds are blocked by Kurama's paw that is supposed to breeze on your unconscious body.*

"Come on, kid. Wake up. I know you can do it. You must not accept your demise.....", Kurama was hoping for your safety.

He already knows it's his fault, that he has made you passed out. He also admits, his howl is far too great for the human to handle. He forgets to tell you he possesses destructive power that most objects cannot withhold itself.

*Your body is quite moving.*

"*Kurama's eyes widens* Heh. This kid is strong, after all. Perhaps I can reward the child. Hmmm.... Maybe I should shrink this person for a while, just to prevent this kid from being threatened by those stupid creatures.", he put his hand onto you.

Luckily, he is quite surprised you are able to survive his destructive power that even the strongest human cannot overwhelm it. He uses his jutsu to manipulate your current body size down to the size of an ant.

*Your body is shrinking upon receiving chakras from the fox.*

"*Grins* I hope you'll understand my purpose here in your world.", the fox already had plans with regards to you.

*Your body flashes and disappears*

"Mmmff?! What the-- Where did the kid go?", Kurama was shocked upon seeing the result.

Because Kurama doesn't think the probable outcome, he restricts his body from moving intensely. He is wondering where does his jutsu transport you. The fox only moves his head and concentrates his vision onto the ground.

*Changing the scene to Kurama's eyes*

"Hey, kid! Where are you?! I completely forgot I'm too big to be able to see you. Where did you go?", the fox was now looking for you.

Obviously, he makes another mistake because he doesn't think what can be the outcome and consequences, if he uses his jutsu to make you completely shrunk.

*Kurama looking*

*Focusing the scene on his right paw and zooming into his mentioned part.*

*Somewhere in Kurama's right paw.*

"*Yawn* Aw..... my head! Ugh.... I feel like my head is tearing itself inside out.", you had finally woken up.

You try to sit still for a while as you can feel your body weakened. You close your eyes as the mentioned organ doesn't want to see things briefly. You slowly move your legs, so you, at least, try if you are able to stand up. You root your hand onto the ground, in order to support your balance briefly.

*You touching the "ground".*

"That's odd. The ground is so soft I can barely hurt myself when I fall here.", you managed to stand up.

You slowly open your eyes as you want to know where you currently are. Upon opening, you are quite confused about the field you have woken up.

"Huh. Why are those grass orange instead of green?", you were shocked and decided to walk.

While walking, you are recalling that you have been in the forest before you pass out. There, you can see those orangish grass swaying more intense that green grass. You approach onto one of those grass.

*You are touching the "grass"*

"Hmmm.... This grass is thinner than the green one. How did I end up here?", you wondered yourself.

You are honest terrified of the place you are now. You are reminding someone if he knows about it However, you aren't able to recall his name. And instead, your head starts hurting again as you have further thought more of it.

"Ngghh.... Maybe I should explore myself from here.", it was for the best not to think about the recent past.

You have decided to explore new areas for you to regain your memories. As of now, you have gone deeper to the field of orange grasses, just to take a deep breath. For sure, the field is breezing that you can, at least, relax yourself in the area for a while.

*Zooming out from Kurama's paw*

"*Growl* I should've place the kid onto my hands before I shrink the person down. Now where's the kid landed into?", Kurama was searching for you.

He tries to look closer on the ground before he cancstep on it. He doesn't want to accidentally stomp you as he has placed you in front of him. Additionally, he tries not to tremble the ground upon stepping as his giant body is able to create such waves that it might shaken it.

"*Growl* I need to find the kid before something goes wrong. And I already skip breakfast this morning.", Kurama set aside his usual activity so he could find you.

Even though Kurama is hot-headed demon beast , he still shows his kindness towards people who consider valuable and worth before his presence.

*Kurama is still searching onto the ground.*

"*Sigh* I hate doing this.....", Kurama complained the task he had made by himself.
