a sealed chamber

I followed Esdeath till she led me to a room under the castle. looking around the room i can see that the walls and floors are covered in seals. "Why are we here," I asked.

"To eliminate your strongest weakness," said Ryu stepping out of the shadows in the corner of the room. and no, I did not jump in surprise no matter how much the other two insist that I did.

"My strongest weakness," I asked.

"You have the power of the Kyubi inside of you, but you don't use it because you can't control it," he said. "You will not be leaving this room till that is no longer the case," he said. I could feel the seal activate on me and knew it was an order.

"And how do you plan on doing that, and what would stop my uncontrolled state from breaking out," I asked.

"This room was designed to handle my family's bloodline. when we first reach puberty, we enter a berserker state and takes a while to gain control. my ancestors were able to take on tailed beast one on one with our bloodline. if it can hold us, it will hold you," he said.

"You have a bloodline," I asked.

"Another time," he said not wanting to go any further.

as for how you will gain control is a three-step process. the first will start with you getting into that circle and pulsing chakra into it," said Esdeath. "You will not be able to move on to other steps till you finish the first part."

I walk to the circle and stand in the middle of it. "So, what does this do," I asked.

"You will see," said Esdeath. it was clear they were not going to tell me, so I set my hand down and activated the circle.
