Side Chapter 1

Note: Hello, my dear readers! In the nearly three months that passed since the fanfic was completed, I have rested because I was honestly exhausted. I was writing nonstop, all while having school, and personal problems to deal it. BUT! I feel that my conditions are getting better, and so, I decided to fulfill my promise! I promised that I would do side chapters, and here it is! Enjoy it! NYAHAHAHAHA!

''I wonder what kind of world this one will be...'' Naruto muttered as he left the portal, before closing his eyes to feel the world around him. This time, no information was given to him, he would need to explore by himself.

He felt that the chosen of this world was pretty near, but before going over there for a talk, Naruto went on his consciousness. Two hand-sized animals were there, one was a fluffy, cute fox with nine tails, while the other was a one-eyed, fat toad-like creature with ten tails.

Staring at them both, Naruto said with a teasing smile, ''Awww, you look so cute in your new form, Juu-san! You too, Kuu-san, way better than your giant form!''

''Shut up! I'm very handsome no matter which size I'm, never heard of the term 'My body, my rules'? Are you living at the pre-historic age?!'' Kurama growled, but it didn't sound threatening at all in his current form.

Juubi looked at his fluffy friend with his only eye in shock, is it possible that this fox won't ever just accept someone's praise? Then, he looked at Naruto before saying, ''Hey, brother! Are we finally going to another world? I feel bad that I wasn't with you two when you first went to that strange world you talked about!''

In the years they passed together, the once primitive Juubi evolved rather well, before he decided to take the form of a toad. Gradually, he also started to see Naruto as his brother, as that was the only one who truly cared about him, if you don't count the tsundere fox.

''It's so noisy even though it's just morning, can't you two calm down a bit, hm?'' Naruto said while smiling lightly and putting both hands at his ears, as if to block their voices. His two companions snorted simultaneously before deciding to sleep.

The blonde-haired man sighed, 'These two are always like that, life is so hard...'

Taking a deep breath, Naruto finally took a look at his surroundings, before noticing that there were quite a few creatures looking at him curiously. One of them seemed to like him very much, it was a small one with orange-colored skin, it looked like a small dragon, and a orange flame burned continuously on the tip of its tail.

''What a wonderful little thing you're... Here, come closer.'' Naruto said, his voice was as gentle as water. The small creature looked at him with curiosity before finally coming close to him. Its' actions seemed to trigger its companions, as they also came close.

''Char... Charmander?'' The small dragon-like creature looked at him before saying, despite the different ''language'', Naruto understood it perfectly. With a raised eyebrow, he said while pointing at them, one by one, ''So your name is Charmander? This one is Bulbasaur, and this one is Squirtle?''

The three of them nodded at the same time. Naruto was surprised by their intelligence, as creatures aren't usually intelligent. Then, he started to caress Charmander's head, and it was pleased, ''Char!''

''Are you three living in this forest?'' Naruto asked gently while staring at their eyes, and so one of them replied, ''Squirtle squirtle squirtle!''

Naruto chuckled after hearing its reply before noticing he doesn't know their genders yet. With a hand on his cheek, he said, ''You live in a laboratory, with a guy named Oak? What a strange name! So, what are your genders?''

Truth to be told, Naruto was very curious about what kind of world he was now at. It didn't seem like it would increase his powers, but it was worth exploring, 'At least, it seems like there are some interesting fellas here.'

''Bulbasaur, bulba, Bulbasaur!'' Bulbasaur said while pointing at Charmander, Squirtle, and itself in the end. It seemed like the three of them were males, Naruto nodded.

At that time, Bulbasaur rubbed his head on Naruto's right leg, before pointing at the distance, ''Bulbasaur!''

''You want me to go with you three? Hmmm, fine, let's go!'' Naruto smiled while feeling that this is a truly interesting world. Charmander sat proudly on his left shoulder, Bulbasaur on his right shoulder, and Squirtle on his head.

'Somehow, this feels like these two, haha.' Naruto chuckled while thinking that these three fellas are exactly like Kurama, and Juubi. They were all very lazy, and just pointed the way!

''Ya' b*stard! Don't go comparing the two of us with these cubs! We are very majestic, we have lived for hundreds of years, while these two are just babies!'' Suddenly, Kurama's voice sounded on his mind, he was very annoyed.

Waving his hand, Naruto said in disdain, ''Tch, stop with your cheap jealousy, Kuu-san! Dun' worry, as a good brother, I won't abandon you!''

''Who said that I'm jealous, wanna die?! Come on your mindscape, imma rip you in two!'' Kurama roared, but went to sleep after noticing that Naruto started to just ignore him, 'Tch, this b*stard, you know what, I'll just sleep, and will ignore him, no matter what!'

Juubi looked at his brother incredulously before closing his only eye, 'Sigh, these two are always at each other's throat, why can't they just be peaceful? Is there no more warmth in this world?'

He was very tired, these two bickered all day long.

Meanwhile, Squirtle pulled Naruto's hair before asking curiously, ''Squirtle?''

''Hm? I was talking to my brothers, they are one of the most important people to me. I think it's just like that Professor Oak is to you three?'' Naruto said, as the three cubs nodded at the same time. Once they reached Professor Oak's building, they saw the man searching everywhere for something, or someone.

''Where are they? Where are these three?'' The man muttered in panic before hearing someone opening the building's transparent door. That man is Professor Oak, and he felt very relieved, but wary after seeing these three with an unknown person.

It was a tall man with blonde-colored hair, akin to gold, piercing light blue-colored eyes, and three whiskers at both right, and left cheek. Overall, he was certainly very handsome.

Naruto saw Oak's care for the three little ones, before slowly putting them down, as they ran to the man's embrace. Looking towards Professor Oak, he said, ''I was taking a nap in the forest, and when I woke up, I saw these three looking at me with curiosity.''

''You must be someone very special, then. These three never leave their Pokeballs, because they're usually very comfortable inside it, and it seems that they really liked you!'' Professor Oak said, feeling surprised that these rebellious cubs actually took such actions.

Then, his voice had a bit of sorrow, ''Sigh, these three are the only things I have left in my life if I don't count that one who hates me... Aside from them, I'm always cultivating starting Pokemons for new, potential Pokemon Trainers. Not long ago, three new Pokemon Trainers received their first starters.''

'Poor dude.' Naruto thought, and Professor Oak was about to continue talking, when suddenly, a kid about 10-years-old entered the room while shouting, ''Ah! Professor Oak, I'm late!''
