Yes, somewhat

Ino has barely time to take in the surroundings, the enormous cage, the seal on it, but what she does see are two huge, slitted eyes behind the bars... and in an instant, she knows that it is neither a trick nor an illusion... this is the real deal.

She stumbles backwards, and falls on her own behind as her legs fail her due to trembling in fear.

"OH YES, IT'S GOOD TO SEE THAT MY NAME IS STILL NOT FORGOTTEN...", the Kyuubi laughs. "I CAN'T DEVOUR YOU, LITTLE YAMANAKA, BUT BELIEVE ME, YOU ARE TOO DEEP INTO MY LAIR TO ESCAPE ME NOW.", the demon says, and now, Ino sees a huge mouth spreading to a grin. It is at least as big as a house, and filled with sharp teeth.

But Naruto was careful enough to keep an eye on the Kyuubi. "Leave her alone, you bitch!", he calls out as he steps out of the dark from the other side of the room, and stands before Ino, protectively.

"BITCH? I THINK YOU'RE CONFUSING ME....", the Kyuubi chuckles.

Naruto only scowls, his face clearly angered.

But that only makes it more fun for the Kyuubi. "OH? DON'T TELL ME YOU DIDN'T LIKE WHAT I DID TO THAT OTHER GIRL... YOU KNOW, THE BROWN-HAIRED ONE. WHAT WAS HER NAME AGAIN... AH, IT'S UNIMPORTANT ANYWAY...", she says, pretending to mumbling to herself.

"Tenten-chan...", Naruto whispers. Now, it starts to make sense to him... him not remembering what happened before he blacked out, Tentens weird behavior... it was all HER fault.

But Kyuubi doesn't care about Narutos emotion. Never has, never will. "COULD BE, I DON'T CARE ABOUT MORTALS NAME. ANYWAY, DON'T YOU APPRECIATE IT? SHE IS CERTAINLY A 'NICE LAY' AS YOU WOULD PUT IT, HUH?", she asks hi

"Stop it! Return Tenten-chan to normal!", Naruto demands boldly.

"BUT THEN YOU'D BE ALL ALONE AGAIN.", Kyuubi mocks him. She knows his weakpoints only too well to not attack them.

"I don't care... I don't want a **** love.", Naruto calls out to his inner demon.

But the demon only has spite left for Naruto. "YOU CALL THAT LOVE? HAH, I CALL IT PROCREATION!", she taunts him.

And it works. Narutos anger is boiling. "Cut. It. Out.". He presses the words out from behind his clenched teeth.

"OH? YOU REALLY DON'T WANT THIS? YOU REALLY WOULDN'T WANT YAMANAKA AS A MATE, TOO?", Kyuubi asked, and now, once again, the two red orbs focus on Ino again.

Ino is cowering in fear behind Naruto by now, a sight that delights the demon. 'AT LEAST ONE HUMAN WHO KNOWS HER PLACE!', she thinks. Ino looks up as the demon calls out her name, and horror strikes her heart, as she too finally realizes (or at least gets an idea) of what happened... and more importantly, what might be about to happen.

Naruto looks back at her, and seeing as she would be the second person he would harm with his presence, it pains him, but is determined not to let it happen. "Don't you dare!", Naruto screams in anger and anguish.
