[X] Ate the pill. You need more power, and now!

Kurama been a power hungry little shit for awhile. This is just being consistent.

We really should work on getting some Beast points. It just does not feel entirely right to not get access to chakra cloak mode at all, lol.

Arc 1: Chapter 17
Removing any doubts and fears from your mind, you ate the pill, easily swallowing it in one gulp. After a few moments of tenseness, your cursed seal was forcefully activated, the flame-like pattern spreading across your body faster than you could ever hope to do it manually. You roared in pain, the demonic energy coursing through your body like a flood of fiery spears, your body now completely covered in the cursed seal, glowing a bright orange as your body began to mutate.

You fell onto your needs, slamming your hands on the stone floor, cracking it slightly. Your back felt like it was being torn off and you swore something was tugging your fingers out of place, painfully dislocating them. Compared to our true self, this demonic energy wasn't anything impressive, but to a human? You now knew why Orochimaru created a procedure to mitigate the effects, any human would have died at this point. But either your experience with demonic energy or your immortal body (probably a combination of both) had prepared you well. The pain quickly passed as you felt an overwhelming power pump into your very being!

Soon everything calmed down, but your body felt odd. Heavier in some ways. It wasn't until Azasuke walked into the room with a large mirror that showed you how you changed. You had at least doubled in size, your skin was crimson and your fingers were long with claws, much like a fox's. Your face was now more triangular and pointed, further looking like a fox, your Byakugan now glowing violet, enough to radiate their own light. On your back was two large wings, each wing looking like four fox-like tails having been smashed together, and finally a single large tail coming from your lower back. Finally, your hair was now a bright orange and extremely jagged looking, giving you the look of a wild beast.

"I've...never seen a transformation like that before..." Azasuke noted.

"It's obviously due to Kurama's influence." another voice said. Azasuke turned around and bowed his head, moving himself and the mirror out of the way to reveal Orochimaru. Kabuto was next to him, his eyes bloodshot and his skin around his face red and blotchy.

"Taking the pill without any precautions...I was on my way here to stop you. But...it seems like it all went well." Orochimaru said, amused at your new look. "How do you feel?"

"It's a poor substitute for my true power. But...I suppose I can't complain." you answered honestly. You slammed your tail onto the ground, cracking the stone again, but it was a far cry from your former abilities.

"Who knew giving the cursed seal to a Jinchuriki would cause such a reaction? It's beyond any other evolved cursed seal state. Curious..." Orochimaru mused, calmly walking over to you. "Do you feel any agitation?"

"Not any more than usual," you barked, feeling annoyed at all the questions. With some effort, you returned to your normal form. This power will serve you nicely. Orochimaru looked at you one moment before walking away, but then you spoke up.

"I have a question. Do you have a map of Konoha? I'd like to know where I can cause the most destruction." you asked.

"Oh, eager are we?" Orochimaru chuckled. "Yes, do not worry. You'll be given one before the invasion starts."

With nothing more to be said, Orochimaru walked out of the room, Kabuto and Azasuke following behind him.

---

For the last two weeks, you practiced on mastering and using your cursed seal. During this training, you learned you could glide in the air for a short while with your wings, you can even shoot upward into the air with a powerful enough thrust! Also, you could split your wings to create eight more tails that you could fully control. Other than that, your claws could rend through stone and your ninjutsu was upgraded to truly powerful levels.

When you were finished (AKA out of time), you felt that you could finally bring the Leaf to its knees...!

---

It was the day before the invasion, and the entire Sound Village seemed to be scrambling in order to prepare. Shinobi of all shapes and sizes were marching off to various places, shops were full of people doing some last minute preparations, and in general it was the loudest you've ever heard the damn place.

Orochimaru had delivered on the map of Konoha, giving it to you personally this morning while also reminding you that you'll be with him until the invasion started. So, today was your last bit of freedom before everything started...!

What will you do?

[] Go rest. You need to be at your best before the invasion began!

[] Find Dosu. You haven't seen him in over a month by now...

[] Perhaps you should take this time to buy some special tools...(Write In on which ones you want)

[] Write In.
 
[X] Find Dosu. You haven't seen him in over a month by now...

Sounds like the power boost is more than considerable. Kurama went from having complete noodle-arms to being actually respectably strong by not-cannon fodder ninja standards. If other stats received the same boost, he is now actually powerful enough to matter during the invasion.

Arc 1: Chapter 18
Now that you thought of it, you have no idea where Dosu went. Quite rude for your servant to just vanish like this! Perhaps before you went to the Leaf, you'll make a point to make him fear you again. With nothing better to do, that's what you did. You spent most of the day hunting down Dosu and after hours of coming up short, you finally found Dosu.

In an alleyway, far removed from any prying eyes, as Dosu standing over a fearful man. The man was on the ground and Dosu's foot was on his chest, keeping him pinned down. In one hand, Dosu clutched his necklace with Jashin's symbol on it, an upside down triangle in the middle of a circle, and a kunai in the other.

"O Lord Jashin, please accept this offering of blood. It is my payment for your generous gift that allows me to continue on!" Dosu chanted. The man shrieked in fear until Dosu threw the kunai downward, stabbing into the middle of the man's forehead. The man quivered a few times then went limp.

"So there you are." you bluntly said, revealing your position. Dosu turned around and through the wrappings around his face you could see him grimace. "Doing that puny demon's bidding, are you?"

"Do not forget you too are a follower." Dosu said back, pulling his kunai out of the corpse behind him.

"I'm not anyone's underling." you barked back.

"Fine. What do you want?" Dosu asked.

"Haven't seen you since our last mission, wanted to know where the hell my underling was!" you said, making sure to put emphasis on the word underling.

"That's a simple question. I was preparing for the Leaf Invasion. I was supposed to enter the Chunin Exams with...Zaku and Kin, but-"

"Who?" you asked genuinely not knowing who he was talking about.

"...The ones you killed in our first meeting. My friends." Dosu coldly replied, his revealed eye narrowing in anger.

"Ah, right, Those humans I turned into ash!" you said with a badly hidden chuckle. "Anyway, so what are you going to do in the Leaf Invasion now?"

"I'm going to be a front line solider now. By all rights, a pawn of that bastard Orochimaru and not expected to survive. Of course...as you saw, I was making sure I will survive." Dosu muttered, glancing back at the body.

"We're not even close to the six month deadline. But whatever, now that you're here-"

"Kurama. I want to fight you." Dosu calmly said, cutting you off without fear.

"...That immortality has given you too much confidence, you weakling!" you roared, unleashing your killing intent.

"I want to see how I've progressed since you've forced your way into my life. With us both being immortal, it shouldn't do any harm for us to go all out, you know? Unless..." Dosu trailed off.

"Unless what? Speak, you trash!"

"Unless you're a coward."

You grit your teeth in rage. This stupid human thinks you're a coward? You, the mighty Nine Tails?! You could feel a slightly more rational thought appear in your mind, Dosu is no doubt trying to taunt you into this fight.

What will you do?

[] Fine. You'll agree with Dosu. Beat him at his own game and then assert your superiority once more.

[] Attack Dosu right now! Rip his head off his shoulders!

[] No, you're not going to fight. But if Dosu wants a fight, then he'll have to make the first attack!

[] Agree to the fight, telling Dosu that you will make sure you will carve yourself into his very mind. After you're done, he won't be able to sleep at night!

[] Write In.

But you're too scared to just act on your desires, human. Too frightened by the demon to just fight without asking. And that, child, is why you're weak."

EDIT: This is giga's vote.

Now we get to see how a Jashonist heals after being reduced to small meat chunks.

Dosu's visible eye widened in shock and he took a step back, completely shell shocked by your words. You gave a devilish grin and shrugged your shoulders, "But if you wish to fight, then I will carve those words into your mind. Every waking moment, you will be fearful of me!"

+3 Monster

Dosu suddenly charged forward, trying to strike you with his sound gauntlet. Anticipating this, you jumped upwards and kicked off the alleyway walls until you were on the roof of a building. Dosu was quick to follow. He was seething in anger, his breaths shallow and ragged, a wild look in his eye, and his posture was slump and limp, even more than usual.

"That's it! You're going to die!" Dosu barked as he raised his other arm, revealing a hole in his palm. "Decapitating Airwaves!"

Dosu fired out three bursts of concentrated sound and air, compressed into a ball from his palm! You have a vague feeling you've seen this before somewhere, but now was not the time to think on this!

What will you do?

[] Rush forward and dodge the attack, then carve into Dosu with your dagger!

[] Overpower his jutsu with a fireball!

[] Take the attack head on, just to show how useless Dosu's attacks are!

[] Use Wrathful Fire Stream to annihilate Dosu and end this misery!
