(timeskip to after talk?)

((Sounds good.))

Gemini stood outside, still waiting to be told that she could come back in.

Inside his mind still, Naruto sighed. I think he's in shock. He said to Kurama. Maybe it's time for me to take over again. Unless you still wanted to talk to Gemini-chan?

Naruto nodded mentally. Okay, then. He said, and settled back in to wait.

Hearing silence from the room, Gemini decided it was time to see if everything was okay. She knocked before opening the door, then entered and closed the door behind her. "Otou-san? Gaa-kun? Is everything okay?" She asked, seeing Gaara looking paler than usual.

(Went to sleep early last night. Sorry if I worried you)

'Thanks Naruto' Kyuubi said as he heard his daughter knocking on the door before coming in and closing the door behind her. "Hey there Musume. I um...think I may have broke him," Kurama said with a light chuckle, causing Gemini to blush at what he meant.

Yugito was still wondering if she should ask Kurama what happened when she became a full hellcat like with what Matatabi had told her earlier before she transformed into what she was today. Playing with her tail lightly, she waited for Gemini and Gaara to exit the room.

((No, no, that's okay! After all the waiting Wolfie put you through before, you're entitled to make her wait a few times.))

Gemini blinked, then sighed. "I understand. Let's see what I can do about that..." She said, moving to stand in front of Gaara. Facing her boyfriend, she leaned up on her tiptoes and kissed him.

Gaara blushed but nodded all the same. "He did" was all that he said, his blush still present.

Kurama stayed silent as he watched his daughter interact with her boyfriend before she asked them if there was anything else. "Actually...could you send Yugito in? I have a feeling she wants to ask me something" Kurama said, as he sensed Naruto's confusion.

Naruto's ears perked up, deep in his mind. What did Yugito want to talk to the Kyuubi about?

Gemini's eyes widened, and she snapped her fingers. "That's right! Yugito-chan did want to ask you something. We'll leave you to it. It was nice talking to you again, Otou-san." She said, bowing politely before taking Gaara's hand and leading him out of the room. "Yugito-chan, it's your turn."

[I']Naruto, I don't want you listening on what your girlfriend has to say to me. If she wants to tell you, that will be up to her'[/I] Kurama told Naruto, having a feeling that Yugito would like the privacy.

Yugito heard Gemini as she saw both the foxgirl and her boyfriend head out of the room. Nodding to herself she got up out of the seat and headed inside...hoping that she knew just what she was doing.

I understand. Naruto replied. I would never intrude on Kitty-chan's privacy like that.

Gemini gave Yugito an encouraging smile as they passed one another. Out in the hallway, she turned to Gaara. "So...what do you want to do now?" She asked.

Kurama was glad that Naruto understood where he was coming from and heard the door opening once more, the neko that was his container's girlfriend coming in the door. Once Yugito closed the door, Kurama waited for the girl to speak, knowing that asking a female what was wrong was one of the ways that just didn't work.

"Well...until Hokage-sama calls us in for a report, I think we're free to do what we want," Gaara replied. "Though I wouldn't mind a tour. Last time wasn't all that great..."

Yugito entered the hospital room and instantly noticed that it was Kurama in control, not her boyfriend. Putting up a mental barrier so that Mata-chan couldn't say, or hear, anything, she let out a soft sigh. Seeing that the Bijuu was waiting for her to speak, she did so. "Kurama...I've heard a rumor that once the Jinchuuriki of the Nibi dies, then he/she becomes the Nibi. Is this true? And if it is...what happens to me? do I stay the same or...do I become Mata-chan?" she asked, worried.

"Sounds like a plan. Shall we go then?" he asked. He didn't like being in hospitals...especially with his past. Then again, he had a feeling that Jinchuuriki in general didn't like hospitals.

"Wherever you heard that is true. You will become the Nekomata, just like Naruto will become my replacement since he decided to become a kitsune. But it's only because he's bonded so well with me and took on my form is that he's going to become the next Kyuubi. You, on the other hand, have a sisterly relationship with Mata-chan, just like every other jinchuuriki that held the cat within her. And yes, the Nekomata can only be handled by a female. This is reason why you'll become the Nibi. However, you will keep what makes you you."

Yugito let her shoulders slouch lightly in response. She was completely glad to hear all that. "Thank you Kurama...for telling me this," Yugito said with a soft smile, before Kurama nodded in response.

(just to let you know, I'm not waking the plank :p )

Gaara was glad to be out of the hospital for now, and while he worried a little bit about his friend, he knew that Naruto would be okay, especially with his girlfriend with him. But now he didn't have to worry about that; he was having a fun time with his own girlfriend.

((lol that's okay, only captured enemies must walk the plank.))

Gemini led Gaara around the village, smiling as she pointed out everything she remembered. She seemed to have stories about almost every place they went, and every person they saw. "...And this is the academy where everyone trains before becoming a ninja. Iruka-sensei has been the teacher here for as long as I can remember, even though he's really only a few years older than us."
