The Legend of the Kyubi

0Another week had passed since the incident with Tayuya and the girl had finally recovered, all thanks to the Kushina' s Seals and Tsunade's Medical help, although the pink-haired girl seemed to have acquired a trauma with the cucumbers.     0

The week had been productive for the residents of Uzumaki Residence because Tsunade had succeeded, Kimimaro was finally awake, and although he was still weak, at least he was alive with his family.     

Kin had decided to distance herself a little from Kurama, although after a while things had returned to normal thanks to the intervention of Anko, who had decided to take his 'sisters' on a little training trip.     

Hinata, Ino, and Sakura had managed to convince Tsunade to make them her apprentices, which did not bother her in the least. Hinata and Ino were Kurama's companions, while Sakura not only had good chakra control thanks to her low reserves but was also the girlfriend of Sasuke, the son of Mikoto.     

Kurama was meeting more with the boys because he was sure he would not see them for quite some time, although to their relief, they did not go drinking or anything like that, they just talked in Ichiraku about boyish things.     

* * * * *     

"What's wrong, Shizune?" - asked Tsunade, who was reviewing Kimimaro's current state.     

"I would like to take some of your time, Tsunade-sama" - replied the girl with a slight blush on her cheeks.     

Tsunade stared at her for a few seconds before going back to work - "Ok, give me a moment and we'll talk"     

"Okay, I'll be waiting for her outside," nodded the black-haired girl as she left.     

"You don't need to continue, Tsunade-sama, you can go talk to your student," Kimimaro said calmly.     

"Relax, this won't take long" - smiled the blonde woman as she closed her eyes so that she could concentrate and feel her patient's pulse - "Okay... as far as I can see, your recovery is on track and if my calculations are correct, you'll be as good as new in about two or three months"     

"I thank you so much, Tsunade-sama" - smiled Kimimaro, "I'm so grateful to you. This was the best news I could get"     

"You don't have to thank me, it's my job as a doctor" - smiled the Senju woman as she retired.     

"Thank you..." - the boy from the Kaguya clan muttered.     

"Come on" - said Tsunade as she looked at her student.     

"Ok" - the girl nodded firmly.     

* * * * *     

"Ok... I'm surprised" - said Tsunade as she looked at her student.     

"I'm-I'm sorry... Tsunade-sama..." - Shizune muttered as she looked away.     

"You do not have to apologize, Shizune... one does not control this sort of thing" - sighed blond Senju as she noticed her student looking at her again.     

"But..." - the girl muttered.     

"No buts" - answered Tsunade seriously - "You don't have to hold back on this kind of thing because you'll regret it later..."     

". . ." - Shizune nodded at the words of her teacher.     

"How did it happen?" - asked the big-breasted blonde.     

"It started when he helped us..." - the girl replied with shame.     

"I see... it makes sense" - Tsunade nodded as she looked at Shizune - "Tell me... how bad is it?"     

". . ." - Shizune blushed when she heard the question, so she went over to her teacher's ear and began to whisper to her.     

"Oh... Ohhh?!" - Tsunade couldn't believe what she had heard but quickly nodded - "I see... that makes sense, not to mention that you're a young woman with a body ready for this sort of thing... I'm surprised you haven't experienced that before"     

"I couldn't," replied the grieving Shizune, " Not with the way of life we had..."     

"Oh... I'm sorry about that" - responded Tsunade with shame.     

Now that she had finally come out of that depression-filled hole, she understood how badly she had lived all those years and how much she had hurt the girl who had accompanied her.     

"You do not have to apologize, Tsunade-sama, we talked about this," Shizune replied with a smile.     

"I'm still sorry," sighed the big-breasted blonde, " Okay, I've made up my mind, I'm going to help you through this not only because I'm your teacher, but so I can make up for all you've done for me over the years"     

"Y-You don't have to!" - the black-haired girl blushed.     

"Nonsense" - snorted the Senju woman - "Now come, I'm going to give you some advice that will save your life... and if you play your cards right, you may advance more than a single step"     

". . ." - Shizune glanced at her for a few seconds as she nodded.     

"Well... the first thing you need to know, is..." - said Tsunade as he briefed her on everything she would need.     

* * * * *     

Kurama was walking to his training place when he felt someone following him - "Deja vu... Although it's a surprise that it's you, Shizune-san... Do you need anything?"     

"I'd like to talk with you," said the young woman with a small smile on her face as she remembered the words of her teacher.     

'Listen, Shizune... as a woman, you have to fight with everything you have to get the heart of the guy you like, because if you don't, then you'll only be haunted by the guilt of not making your move when you could. That's the last advice I can give you as your teacher if you want something, then fight for it, fight, fight and don't stop fighting until you get it'     

"Okay?" - Kurama only responded in confusion as he looked at the woman. The two had been spending a lot of time together now that Tsunade was concentrating all his time on healing Kimimaro and training the girls, so Shizune was working as his secretary regarding clan affairs - "Anyway, you can tell me anything you want, after all, you've helped me more than you think"     

"You were the one who helped us," answered Shizune with a slight blush. "Not only did you help Tsunade-sama get back on the right path, but you also healed her broken heart..."     

"She's a strong woman, I'm sure after a while she'll be fine" - smiled the redhead.     

"You also helped me to overcome the hate I didn't know I had inside me" - added the black-haired woman - "If it wasn't for your words, I wouldn't have understood how much I hated Tsunade-sama in the past if it wasn't for you, it is possible that all those negative emotions would have been stuck inside me and would have exploded in the future"     

". . ." - Kurama was silent as he listened to Shizune's confession.     

"That's why I thank you... Thank you, Kurama-kun" - smiled Shizune as she held the redhead's hands - "Thank you for not only giving me back the Tsunade-sama I remembered in my childhood, the same woman who gave me the courage to become a medical shinobi but for helping me overcome my past... thank you... thank you very much, Kurama-kun"     

Kurama nodded at Shizune's words - "Your gratitude, it has been received..."     

Shizune nodded as she let go of the redhead's hands with a slight blush on her cheeks - "I forgot... thanks for worrying about me when we were at the Tanzaku Quarters"     

"You've thanked me enough, Shizune-san," the redheaded man denied as he scratched his cheek. "If you keep this up, you're going to embarrass me"     

He had never been thanked at this level, it was almost always something like 'Thank you very much' and presto, fin, ende, fine, конец, end, something more than that was never necessary.     

"No... even if I use words, it won't be enough to thank you for how much you've helped me" - answered Shizune seriously - "Th-That's why..."     

"?" - Kurama gave the woman an even more confused look, who quickly blushed.     

"I-I'll tell you later!" - Shizune exclaimed as she ran out of the place - "I promise!"     

". . ." - Kurama shook his head as he watched the woman run at full speed, though he had to admit that it was amusing to see the woman's expression.     

"I'm sure you figured out what she was trying to say," said Anko, who was standing on a tree branch.     

"Yes... although I feel it's too much" - answered the ginger as he shook his head - "She doesn't need to thank me that way because I would only speak ill of her"     

"You know very well that's just an excuse Bubble-chan picked up" - snorted the Snake Charmer.     

"Bubble-chan?" - Kurama asked in confusion.     

"Didn't you see that ass?" - asked Anko as she licked her lips - "Not counting Tsunade, who has the most slutty body, Bubble-chan is the one with the biggest ass of all the inhabitants of the Mansion..."     

". . ." - Kurama did not reply, though he had to admit that it was true. While Shizune did not have large breasts like most women in the Manor, she compensated with a huge ass, although the clothing made it less noticeable than it should.     

"Let me tell you that even I was tempted to take a bite out of that big, meaty apple," Anko continued with a perverted laugh. "That's why if you don't do it, I will"     

"I didn't know you were bi, Anko-chan," said Kurama in surprise.     

"I'm not... But that's how tempting Shizune-chan's ass is~" - smiled the purple-haired woman as she looked at the redhead.
