The Fox and His Mate
By Selim
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto.
Summary: Naruto wants Sasuke for his mate, plain and simple. To do so, he must prove himself an adult in his mother's eyes, a strong leader in his father's, and a powerful Shinobi in Sasuke's.
Pairings: Sasuke x Naruto, Kakashi x Iruka, and Kyuubi x Arashi

The prior fox village was obviously old when compared to their new one. This new village had obvious signs of taking a human's opinion to its design. Like the first village it was also hidden behind a chakra seal to appear just like a normal section of the forest. Sasuke Uchiha had easily entered the demon realm, hidden behind a cloak. It had been almost six years since he watched Naruto, Prince of the Foxes, leave Konoha. A lot had happened since then. People had changed, treaties were made, and it seemed every day mankind and demon-kind were becoming closer. The demon culture was becoming very much like the Konoha culture – minus the annual Kyuubi Attack Memorial.

Tucking his head down to avoid wide-eyed fox stares (and the occasional human), Sasuke moved forward fast. Some of the citizens were following close behind, not sure whether to trust the man or not. He did find their village, which would make him a shinobi of high caliber but at the same time, since they couldn't see his hitai-ate, the traveler was already labeled dangerous. Fox guards were immediately taking stance before him, their claws raised in preparation to attack, when an easy going voice told them to back down. Sasuke turned to stare at the silver-haired Konoha Shinobi approaching him. "Kakashi."

"Sasuke." The foxes, at hearing his name, tensed again. "Hadn't expected to see you again – much less crawling back to Naruto after defecting from the village. I don't think he'd want to see you."

"Let him be the judge of that, Kakashi." The Uchiha glowered. Kakashi rolled his dark eye. "Take me to Naruto."

"I don't take orders, Sasuke-san. I will tell you that he's too busy to deal with your tantrums right now. I can bring you into the village though – that is if you promise to behave yourself." The other human rolled his eyes before agreeing to follow his old teacher further into the village. As he'd expected, it had changed. Though houses still were carved in the trees, those were now the more primitive demon's home. Four legged foxes were walking around happily going about their day. Beyond that were more structural buildings resembling shoin-zukuri. style houses. Sasuke snorted. Well…they had to start somewhere, he supposed.

One of the structures Kakashi stopped at and slid open the door with no preamble. It was small, possibly just this small room, an attached kitchen, and a backroom. Sasuke grunted. Even his hideout now wasn't this tiny. "Iruka!"

The kitchen door slid open and a dark head stuck out before the scarred nosed man smiled. "Welcome back, Kakashi-kun….Sasuke-san?" He raised a brow before whispering that he would get tea. Taking a seat on the tatami mat, Kakashi chuckled and relaxed into carefree – fox – dialogue with the nervous Iruka, completely ignoring his guest.

Not that Sasuke cared. Too busy staring at the shelves in the room; the shinobi remembered the few times he'd been in his teacher's old home. This one, though bare of several modern requirements, was obviously Iruka's taste all around. "How are you Iruka-san?" Sasuke finally asked when the man came in with some tea.

"Ah…fine, I guess."

"Don't be shy, Iruka! Tell him the truth!"

"But…"

Grinning behind his mask (Sasuke could because of that bloody twinkle in the jounin's eye), the man reached his arm around the guard. "Iruka probably isn't feeling good. He's pregnant with our second child." Iruka blushed, bending his head to avoid Sasuke's surprised look. "Our first little one is running around with the other foxes."

"What a… family man you've become, Kakashi." The Uchiha turned his head as the door opened and a miniature boy with long dark hair and another boy (this one part fox) with beautiful blond hair rushed in to Iruka's side. The brunet shinobi tensed as they rushed around him, the dark haired child climbing into Kakashi's lap with no notice to their guest.

It was Iruka who introduced the two boys. The dark haired child attempting to remove Kakashi's mask was their son, Yasuo – age five. The little blond fox child, politely sitting at the table with it's curious blue gaze on Sasuke even when the four year old sipped its milk was Kyuubi and Arashi's second son (spawned from the demon himself, Kakashi laughed), Kanaye. For a second, Sasuke was almost tempted to ask the kit where his older brother was but the protective look on Iruka's face told him not to. Piss him off and he'd likely send Kakashi to rip him a new one, instead Sasuke smiled and politely greeted both children. Kanaye still didn't stop tensing, but he did turn his attention to the guard when he asked for more snacks – the rice crackers originally brought out long since gulped down by Kakashi's little monster.

"I should be going. I need to speak with the prince." Sasuke stood up but the small fox boy stopped him, blue eyes darkening.

"Hurt big brother I hurt you."

Nodding his head, Sasuke gave his goodbyes and disappeared from the hut. Seriously now, as if he was worried about a little ankle bitter.

Of course he didn't make it that far before another of his old acquaintances met up with him as he neared the towering tree that resembled a castle on a hill overlooking its village. Sakura hadn't changed much since he'd last seen her. She was bustier and offered more curves to view but overall Naruto was probably still sexier. Her pretty pink hair was pulled back in a bun, toning her face to make her appear older than she was. He nodded in greeting at her, more than ready to give the blossom a piece of his mind if she returned to her obsessive ways. Instead she smiled and asked him if he was off to see Naruto.

"Of course. I've killed Orochimaru and I'm ready to see if he's strong enough to be my mate." Sasuke continued forward. Sakura followed.

"That's not really a good reason to string him along all these years," Sakura hummed. "I mean, here he was turning away all these potential mates that were so hot – all because you promised to mate with him. It hurt Naruto the most when you defected from Konoha. He kept swearing that you'd come back some time and things would return to normal." She brushed some of her bangs, not long but still annoyingly lengthened, back behind her ear. "Such a shame to though, those potential demons could make quite an alliance and think of the children. Oh! Did you see his baby brother? Kakashi says he looks just like Arashi-sensei, more closely than Naruto does – though they both resemble Arashi-sensei the same. I guess besides their obvious demon heritage they don't look like Kyuubi much."

"Sakura…"

"Yes, Sasuke-kun?"

"You're rambling about information I don't care for." Sasuke started up unbalanced stairs, keeping to the side as various foxes started rushing down to commit to their training. Following behind was a white fox who, upon seeing them, stopped in front of Sakura and morphed into humanoid form. He took the blossom's hand, kissing the back of it lovingly. Sakura giggled. "And this is…" Sasuke found himself grunting. Even if he didn't have feelings for the girl, he didn't like the idea of her being interested in anyone but him.

"This is my fiancée!" Sakura squealed as the fox hugged her tightly. "You don't remember him, Sasuke? He was that little fox I had been carrying around when we last visited as team seven. I had thought it was a puppy but he was just the runt of his pack." The fox eyed Sasuke with uncertainly before speaking in his fox tongue to Sakura. The girl spoke back to him with just as much ease as if it were her primary language. Sakura kissed the fox goodbye before turning back to Sasuke. "Our mating ceremony is next year – will you be around for it?"

"It all depends if I meet up with Itachi."

The girl's lips twitched, almost turning into a snarl but her voice was kept in check. "You're wrapping your life around the wrong things. Times are getting more troubled; you can't live in the past, no matter how much wrong has occurred. I don't think Naruto should have to settle with you if-"

"Sakura-Chan!" The two's gaze broke apart as a boisterous blond ran down the stairs, nearly colliding into them. "If you see dad, tell him you've never heard of…" Naruto's blue eyes widened, gazing up at the slightly taller traitor that stood just as surprised in the hallway. "Sasuke-kun…?"

"I've returned for you, Naruto."

The boy bit at his lip before turning, "care to join me from some leaf flavored water?"

"Tea, Naruto," Sakura piped up.

"Tea, leaf flavored water, same difference." The little fox continued down the stair case slowly, Sasuke following close behind. "Could you have a pot sent down, Sakura-chan?" He didn't even check to see if she was listening as he continued on. The path was long and silent route to what appeared to be his living quarters. It was slightly larger than Kakashi's front room and was a bit of a mess. Naruto quickly swept away some clothes before taking a seat before his table. Blue eyes, unemotional and calculating, remained on Sasuke as a cold silence fell between the two. Naruto's long fingers clicked at the table just as the door was opened and a fox walked in with the tea. Both men waited as their cups were poured and when the fox was gone, Naruto hummed out, "that should keep those guards at bay for awhil-"

He was stopped as Sasuke closed the distance between them. Such pleasant tasting lips, Sasuke made a disappointed noise when Naruto didn't open his mouth when the Uchiha's tongue probed at his lips, begging for entrance. Pushing the blond back a little towards a small futon in the corner, Sasuke laid his hands on the bountiful hips that would, hopefully, one day bear strong Uchiha babies. Naruto's mouth finally opened to moan softly, giving Sasuke plenty of time to dip his tongue in. Mapping out Naruto's oral cavity, Sasuke rubbed their tongues together to inflict enough pressure to instigate Naruto to fight back.

And he wasn't disappointed. Just as he pressed against the strong muscle a growl escaped from Naruto, and the boy's own tongue pushed back trying to fight its way into the other's mouth. A dual was fought; one that Sasuke happily won as he finally lowered the distracted fox down upon the futon. Above the prince, the traitor worked his hands into Naruto's elegant kimono, pulling it apart in order to view tan skin and nubs. Silver silk was pushed to the side, until the kimono stopped just at Naruto's navel where a tie held it firmly in place with the prince's trousers. "S, Sasuke…?" Naruto breathed, staring down his body where the Uchiha had stopped. A pink blushed spread across the man's face as Sasuke's tongue dipped into his belly button, coal black eyes staring back up with a darkened lust. "A, a, are we going to really contemplate our mating agreement – now?"

"Now is better than never, Naruto. Do you still accept me?" The Uchiha took part of the sash belt into his mouth and tugged suggestively. One more pull and the band would fall apart, allowing Sasuke to easily pull down the other's pants and view what would properly be his. Naruto's face darkened further, but his legs opened invitingly. The traitor wasted no time, pulling the tie away and dragging the last of Naruto's clothing away. "You're still a very pretty fox." Sasuke hummed, kissing the joint at the base of Naruto's leg. The fox's leg trembled, reflexively trying to close. Grabbing the legs, Sasuke's raised them to his shoulders, taking the blond's semi-flaccid cock into his mouth. The fox, after screaming out in surprise, covered his mouth to stifle anymore cries.

Blue eyes hid behind long eye lashes and Naruto's head turned to the side as Sasuke's mouth sucked on his balls. Sucking and nibbling, the Uchiha's eyes never left the blond's face. Even when he took the fox's shaft in his mouth, his eyes remained locked on his soon-to-be mate's face, mentally photographing every expression as well as recording every touch that turned his love on just a little more. Thumbs brushing across the fox's hips, for example, caused the shying away fox to thrust forward for more. A soft whine drew his attention from his thoughts to watch as Naruto's chest rose in heavy breathing, signaling he was close. Pulling away from the blond's engorged erection; the traitor raised his head up to look over his prize. "A pretty fox," he repeated. He could understand fully why other demons would want this attractive boy. Too bad for them he owned the fox's heart. "You turn me on so much."

"'Suke, are we going to be mate's after all this?" The fox raised his hands, dragging the Uchiha over him. Their lips met again, chastely.

"Yes. I came back for you," Sasuke lowered his hips down on the fox's, letting the boy feel how hard he'd become. Naruto groaned at the friction drawn between their bodies. "Is it against demon laws to mate before a ceremony?"

"As long as there are no tall-tell marks it shouldn't matter." Naruto fumbled with Sasuke's uniform trying to remove it. Sitting up to the back of his legs, the Uchiha shrugged the tunic off his broad shoulders. The fox prince's hand fumbled up toward Sasuke's nipples, curiously running his long fingers over them until they were fully erect. "I love you, Sasuke."

"I love you very much, Naruto." Sasuke glanced around. "Do you have any lube lying around?" He rummaged through a basket nestled near Naruto's bed in hopes to find a bottle of lotion, he came up short.

"Lube? What's that?" The fox shifted on his bed, his gazed look somewhat loss to the question.

"Any kind of liquid I can use for penetration."

"Foxes…usually…prepare by themselves or rather…our bodies begin to moisten when our body temperatures really high. I might already be ready but I'm only a half demon." Naruto slid his hand down his body seductively until he was holding his rigid shaft, spreading his legs open. "I've never checked myself because I've never been this hot before. Am I ready for Sasuke?" A curious finger slid against the puckered entrance, thrusting in once. Sasuke groaned hoarsely. For not meaning to, Naruto was hot.

"Get on your hands and knees, you're wet…but not wet enough. I don't want to hurt you." Naruto complied with the order, kneeling in a way only animals could master. His chest pressed evenly with his futon, head tilted back shyly, and his round rump firmly in the air for Sasuke. A wave of uneasiness rose into to the traitor's heart, reminding him that he barely knew what he was doing. Besides what he'd heard while at Orochimaru's, anal sex wasn't something he'd ran off to do. He did, however, know it was best to prepare his mate properly before they went any further. Spreading the tan globes apart, Sasuke touched the fox's puckered wet entrance before bending down to kiss the boy's opening. Sliding his tongue in, he nipped suggestively at the tender skin. Inner muscles worked instinctively, trying to push out Sasuke's tongue. The traitor didn't pull away, pushing his tongue far enough until the muscle burned from strain.

The little fox mewed weakly, strong legs giving spasms between every deep breath. The Uchiha pulled back, pushing his finger into Naruto. Wet muscles, squishy yet tight, pulled at the digit. Slipping in a second finger, followed by a third, the dark haired man used his free hand to reach under Naruto, embracing the fox's stiff shaft and thumbed the slit.

Kissing the boy's shoulder blades, the traitor removed his fingers from the blond fox's embrace. He worked his fist down his own hard penis, spreading his pre-cum down his shaft until it was wet enough to get past that tight ring of muscles. Aligning himself with Naruto, he pushed in and groaned at the warmth that enveloping him. Gripping Naruto's hips, Sasuke leaned forward with a groan of pleasure. At least Naruto hadn't been sleeping around with anyone else. "I love you Naruto," he whispered in the fox's ear.

The blond didn't respond, his inner muscles only tightening in desire. Unable to contain himself anymore, Sasuke pulled out from the tight heat and plunged back in with enough force to push Naruto forward. Thrusts shifted from longing to remain enclosed in his lover to a constant series of thrust. The blond fox bit into his bedding to cut off his screams so the guards wouldn't be alerted. In a layer of sweat the two bodies pushed together until Naruto tried to crawl away but Sasuke stopped the little fox as he pushed his hips and cock deep into the fox until a bundle of muscle loosened enough for Sasuke's shaft to sink into the nerves. With a loud moan, Naruto threw his head back.

When the muscles around his cock tightened painfully, Sasuke snarled and bit his lip (to avoid biting Naruto) as he came deep in the fox.

Collapsing on the boy, Sasuke tightened his arms around the little fox until they were snuggling in the dirty sheets. "I love you Naruto."

"I love you too, Sasuke. So much." The little fox leaned his head forward to peck with the Uchiha's. Together in each other's arms, the two fell asleep basking in the glow of sex.

Naruto woke up the next morning, he found himself alone and up against a pillow. Looking around for Sasuke, he brought his finger towards his face to rub his eyes only to stop when something foreign pressed into his eye. Pulling his hand away, he gazed at a golden band wrapped around his finger. "Sasuke…?" He pulled it away and sniffed. Besides that metallic scent, Sasuke's scent was all over it. With a coo, the blond replaced the ring around his finger before getting up to drink the water from yesterday.

When he reached his table, he came across a letter leaning against a used cup also carrying Sasuke's scent. Picking up the letter, he opened it to see what Sasuke had written for him while pouring himself a cup of water.

Naruto,

By the time you read this I'll be back on the field. I only came back to make sure you were still my mate-to-be and I see that you have waited for me. That ring is my undying love for you and once I finish some unsettled business. I will return every four months so wait for me. When this is all finished you will be at my side as my proper mate. Until then, take care my beautiful fox.

Sasuke

Dropping the letter, Naruto lowered his head and brushed back tears. The things you did for love. "Stupid Sasuke." Plastering on a smile he'd mastered over the years and left the room to bathe off Sasuke's scent before he returned to work while his parents were away on a human honeymoon. His mother always said that their relationship would be difficult. More so once Sasuke deflected from Konoha but Naruto knew that he wanted that human like Kyuubi had wanted Arashi. He would just have to work harder to drag Sasuke back to Konoha, the fox smirked as he left the room and started towards his personal baths.

Owari

….

….

….

I hate this ending as well, but seriously a reviewer got me thinking. "All Sasuke ever talks about is wanting Naruto for his strength." Sadly, this is how I see Sasuke in the anime as well. If he ever wanted Naruto it'd be for Kyuubi so it's becoming a pairing that would only end in tragedy. But I wanted it to end with a possible SasuNaru ending but not affirmative. You got porn though, so be pleased with that.

And the point of this message? If you read my work, I rarely (if ever) leave ending notes. I'm leaving this because there are some pages I wanted to add.

When starting The Fox and His Mate I had various openings. Originally this was going to be a Kyuubi-Arashi tale that ended with SasuNaru with KakaIru on the side. The only thing is I could never get this started right until I thought of the opening for the published fanfiction during a psychology course back a year ago. In fact, I did want to have 3 different stories – a Kyuubi-Arashi, a Kakashi-Iruka, and a Sasuke-Naruto story arch. However, in the end I didn't want to do three different story lines that pretty much ran together as three different stories. The thought was too much to handle in my busy schedule so instead I put all three together.

Here I am somewhat pleased to put the original openings for this fic. Please note, they are unbeta'd and I have no intention of sending them to Mayhem when they were just lost thought that (sometimes) ended without a period. So sit back and enjoy.

The original Kyuubi-Arashi opening

As the flames engulfing Konoha were extinguished and bodies were carried out and laid before medics for identifications. Wounds would be healed depending on the level of need, but the main reason of their actions were to count the dead, tell the families, and see those who had just gone 'missing'. The missing number wasn't high, but it was questionable.

Children, all ranging from infancy to their early teens, had just vanished. Besides the body of the Fourth Hokage, Yondaime, no adults had gone missing. Only children that had been removed outside of the village and the child sacrificed to contain the Kyuubi had also vanished.

People around, watching the countiless dead bodies, could only cry, and imagine what could have happened to their village. One, a silver haired man, glanced over the departed forest where the Kyuubi had originally made it's rampage. Taking a deep breath, he followed into the woods with for revenge – his best friends body laying dead just inches behind him.

Blue eyes opened wearily, his tired body groaning due to the alarming pain. He knew he wasn't even in his late thirties yet, but why did he feel so old? Arashi pushed himself on his elbows and peeled his eyes opened. A cliché comment echoed into his mind, telling him he wasn't in Konoha anymore. No, the architecture was so much different.

Carved mountain was favored in Konoha, along with marble. His new location was very cave like; the only offered lighting was candle based that dimmed so often it became dark. Besides the architecture itself, the furnishing was elaborate of silk and ivory. The pillow, originally under his head, was stuffed with features, rather than cotton, making it thin and hard. An ivory dresser, carved with fine jewls, rested furthest from the bed. Nicknacks of various formed ajorned it, giving it accent. Not far beside it was a desk that faced the bed, lining with papers and other various forms. Facing him, arms folded, was a demon in human form. Kyuubi…

Silver hair fell down to his shoulders, knotted with twigs and blood, his eyes accented by gold. What could have been a beautiful face was marred by a glare, notably with distaste towards the human. "You can run, Arashi-san, but you can never hide from me…"

That was all Arashi heard before passing out again.

A smile stretched on the blonde's face as consecutive groans came from his genin team. Kakashi, who was usually stoic about the world around him, rolled his eyes with his groan. The other two, Obito and Rin, shoved their heads in their hands while loud groans came. "Come on you guys, things have been fair around the world so Shinobi aren't really needed, be happy someone wants help." Pulling out four lists of ingredients, Arashi handed out three different list to his students. "These are the items you'll need to collect. Each can be found within the woods. In two hours, we'll meet up again here and spend another hour looking for whatever wasn't found as a group. Dismissed!" He raised his hand, watching each student trudge into the woods. He loved being a teacher.

Humming to himself, Arashi started off into the woods, smiling mostly to himself. The list, that only said four items that he knew the location of, blew flimsily in his fingers with the wind until it fell lose and danced in the air. With a widening of his eyes, he followed close behind the slip of paper until it fell to the dark grass. Finally, Arashi thought to himself as he reached for the paper. His wide smile fell, though, as an unfamiliar chakra caught his attention in the distance. Glancing up, his eyes fell upon a man dressed in elaborate robes that he hadn't seen there before.

Silver hair fell over the man's broad shoulders, adding contrast to deep gold eyes. Instead of human ears that would make ovals on the side of the head, sharp furred ears sprouted out of the top of the man's head, twitching quietly. A demon. Arashi picked up his paper and gave a polite bow for entering the demon's territory. As he turned to leave, the chakra from the demon seemed to expand, surrounding him. "Eh…?" He turned to face the demon again. "I'm sorry!" He bowed again. "May I pass? I need to finish this mission before I see how my students are doing."

The demon stoic look remained as he approached the jounin teacher, his hand reaching out to brush unruly blond hair. "What's your name?" He said sternly, his face coming close to Arashi's, causing the young man's breath to hitch. A sweet smell of sakura blossoms took over his senses, turning his body into mush and into the demon's arms.

Breathing deeply, Arashi couldn't control himself as he clutched onto silver hair and pulled himself closely to the demon. "A…a…Arashi…" He moaned, breathing deeply. Blood rushed to both his face and further south, causing him to harden on the spot. The unnamed demon pushed his leg between the jounin's legs before pushing the blonde to the ground, mounting above him. Arashi's pulse quickened. "Wait-!" He tried to push the demon away.

"I am Kyuubi, little human. I'm lord of the nine-tailed-demons, and I want you." He spoke bluntly as he pressed his lips to the genin teacher's.

Confused, Arashi tried to pull away. His eyes seemed to darken deeper as Kyuubi's mouth latched onto his neck, sucking tenderly against the flesh.

…

….

Selim: Yeah…That was actually confusing than useful. Next one! Kyuubi-Arashi, friendship, courtship, mating Naruto!

Kyuubi-Arashi Original Opening 2

At the age of fifteen, Arashi knew for a fact he was hardly normal. Where most teenagers lived at home with their parents, causing trouble in their own way, he was out in the wild, training with a man who was hardly his father. Not that he didn't see this man like a father; Jiraiya was very close that. In a sense, the teen felt at home with this surrogate parent.

Though this didn't make him strange, since it felt very normal. No, what wasn't normal was those golden eyes that stared at him from the woodland, waiting for the perverted hermit to stop his banter on concealing chakra (heaven knows the man didn't want to be caught because his student suddenly came up behind him to ask a question). Finally, after much talk, the man left to visit the hot springs for research, leaving his student to further train in his control.

Arashi had other things on his mind though as he pushed back long blonde hair from his eyes and turned to face those golden eyes that watched him from the distance. "Kyuu-kun?" He called out.

Kyuu-kun, or better known as the Kyuubi, had followed him around since his days as a genin. At first the child hadn't understood what this demon wanted, but the fox snaked five of its nine tails around the boy's lithe body and said quietly, "Because we're friends."

A child could not comprehend the many meanings of that sentence, but Arashi was unconcerned with hidden wants. The demon wanted to be his friend, and often brought gifts, carried between its canines. Jewels, pendants, elaborate clothing, and other various things Arashi had no need for. He would have preferred coupons for ramen, but he did accept this gifts with a smile and thanked his benefactor. On his way home, he'd sell what didn't meet his fancy in favor of food. His poor family life made a food source more necessary then material goods.

From the bushes, like every time, a large fox brushed against the wood paneling before his body thinned to a manlike form, yet his ears were long and further on his head, pointing in the air with anticipation – a trick he'd learned in recent years. In his hands was a necklace of stone hedge, formed to make spirals, each separated by a single pearl. "A sea urchin asked of me to deliver his beautiful creation to a beautiful being." Carefully, he unclasped the knot and tied it around Arashi's neck, softly kissing the skin.

This was why Arashi was not normal. At the age of thirteen, he unwillingly and unknowledgeable mated with the demon Kyuubi.

"What if Jiraiya-sensei catches you with me?" The teen whispered as his body was pressed into the earth by the eager fox's body.

Kyuubi's long fingers brushed back blonde hair. "He wouldn't catch me if you'd leave these humans in favor for my world. It'd be accepted there for you to birth my children." Pressing his lips to the human's, his tongue bathed the closed lips and begged for entrance, but it was never granted. "Arashi…" He whispered, huskily.

"I can't leave Konoha, I've told you that." Arashi shivered. In truth, he didn't like the idea of having half-demon babies. It seemed so…unethical. Carefully, he pushed the demon from above him, sliding out from under the demon. He was starting to feel dirty, not that it was a different feeling from what he usually felt. Going through his bag, he pulled out his notes for his recently attack (which is what he planned on naming Rasengan). Kyuubi's tails shook eagerly behind him as the thousand year old demon waited patiently. "I'm not sleeping with you." Arashi finally said.

Glaring, Kyuubi stood up, his arms swaying at his side in fury. "You're my mate, it's your job to deal with my heat and continue my bloodline."

"No it's not." Arashi reached behind him, unclasping the necklace he'd been given. With no hesitation, he placed it by Kyuubi's feet. "If that's what you want, you need to find a demon mate and leave me alone…" Ever since his first mating with the demon that he thought was just a friend, he just wanted to be left alone.

The demon stared over the beads before picking it up. "You're just irrational due to the stress of your latest training. I'll see you tomorrow, after you've had a good nights sleep." Clasping the beads around Arashi's neck, Kyuubi turned to leave the area. When he was out of the area, Ararshi tore the beaded neckless from his neck, throwing it against the tree. Nothing good could come out of sleeping with a demon.

…

…

Selim: Failed, yet again. I tried one more time before this fic. A Sasuke-Naruto try that stared Gaara as Naruto's protental mate at the beginning and latter would lead to Sasuke-Naruto.

The Fox and His Mate Opening Try 3: Gaara-Naruto, Sasuke-Naruto?

Naruto Uzumaki was furious.

As he marched down the exquisite corridors of his fathers' home, people stepped aside for the small lord. The boy's beautiful yellow tipped ears (curtsey of his mothering-father's genes) flattened against equally blonde hair as his long blonde tail puffed up like a bat. He was seething with rage, his breaths coming in huffs. What was the cause of this sudden behavior? His demon father's, Kyuubi, recent decision that Naruto had come of age for mating, and behind the boy's back had decided whom it would be. For sake of their Fox-Demon village, he was being, pretty much, given to the neighboring Raccoon village's Lord, Gaara.

Having met the young raccoon before, Naruto wasn't too impressed. Physically, Gaara was an eye-candy, but personality wise he wasn't as attractive. He could find other things to spend the rest of his life doing, all without a red-haired raccoon being in the picture. "Naruto-chan!" His mothering-father's voice echoed down the corridors of the castle. "Naruto-chan, wait up!" Stopping, the blonde half-demon turned to face his mothering-father.

Arashi Uzumaki and Naruto could have been considered twins had it not been the difference that the other blonde was a human through-and-through. Outside the palace, little was known about Lord Kyuubi's mate besides that he was a human, inside was another story. Student of a legendary Sennin for the humans, Jiraiya, Arashi was trained in many difficult jutsus and chakra controls. For humans he had created powerful jutsus that had been considers as family bloodlines in years to come. One of the most known accomplishments the Kyuubi mate had was he was the hokage of the nearby hidden village of humans, Konoha.

"Please, Naruto. Don't act like this, your father means no harm." Arashi kept a concerned face. Naruto huffed and turned his cheek. "I know, Naruto-chan, you still feel too young to be mated-"

"I'm not young, mom!" Naruto hissed.

Rubbing the back of his head, Arashi blushed. "I know, I know. You demon side sees you as an adult, but Naruto-chan, you're just a child on the human side. I was twenty-five when your father mated with me, hardly a child in the eyes of a human, but unlike your father, you and I won't live for long. I'll be lucky to see into my hundreds, and you'll be lucky to make five hundred years compared to the average of thousands for demons. Your father wants you to be making little Kyuubi descendents before your passing, and Shukaku has agreed to allow Gaara to mate with you. I have to agree with your father that we shouldn't deny any offers for you since very few want to … taint their family name."

Naruto's eyes lightened as his anger disappeared. "Mom…"

"I can assure you Naruto, you won't be so thrilled about the idea at first, but it'll grow on you. I tried stabbing your father in his sleep months after he kidnapped me from Konoha. Now I can't see my life without him…and you." Giving the boy a hug, Arashi turned to return to his lover's side. "Join us for dinner later."

Waving, Naruto turned to continue his path towards his bedroom. Lower-class demons that stood guard in front of his chambers scampered to open the door for the child then closed them after he walked past them. As the doors clicked shut behind him, Naruto let out an anguished scream into his bedding. He'd been tricked by his own mothering-father! Irritated, he glared up at the ceiling as time clicked by while thinking about of his father's earlier conversation.

It was understandable about both of his parent's desires for him to mate. He was the only heir produced so it he needed to produce an heir, even if it was from the equally known demon stronghold raccoon demon. Pouting, Naruto threw his pillow. He still thought he was too young, even if most demons his age were finding mates and producing heirs. Hiis first heat, he merely locked himself in his room and said he just wanted to study up on his families bloodline. Acceptable. He doubted he could hide his heat this year since his father, Kyuubi, was paying closer attention since his soon seemed to be a late bloomer.
