What began as a small blue flame, created by Kyuubi-no-kitsune when his breath turned blue, eventually became a small child. It took many years for him to gain enough spiritual power to gain a human form. The little flame could now run around and live a happy life like any other child.

Although he was technically a Kitsunebi, he was called Onibi instead. Compared to an actual Onibi, they were generally harmless while the demon flame was. It was the kitsune who made them that you would have to worry about. But Kyuubi planned on teaching Onibi to fight so he could defend himself eventually. So it just seemed more fitting.

Just like every other child, he had a burning curiousity about everything since it was all new to him. Kyuubi did his best to explain to him about the things he was curious about. Be it a flower, an animal, an object, etc. Even about kitsunes and Onibi himself. 

Though the child didn't fully understand. He was still quite young after all.

"Kyuu!" the child exclaimed. 

He had been trying to grab one of Kyuubi's tails for a while now. To make it more entertaining the fox would move his tails just out of his reach everytime he almost grabbed one. Although it made Onibi pout, he couldn't help but chuckle at how determined he was. 

"How cute.." he said quietly as Onibi finally managed to grab one of his tails.

The child loved holding onto his tails, sometimes trying to hide behind them all or even take naps while holding a tail. Regardless of the situation, Kyuubi allowed him to since it was a cute scene. Besides, he wanted to enjoy moments like this while they lasted. 

Like everyone else, Onibi would grow up. He wouldn't continue doing such childish things. 

"Come here Onibi" Kyuubi said, picking the small child up. 

Walking over to the couch, he sat down and placed Onibi on his lap. Onibi looked up to him, tilting his head curiously before shuffling around to get comfortable on the kitsune's lap. Once he had he closed his eyes to take a nap. Kyuubi moved one of his tails for Onibi told hold as he slept.

Patting his head, he closed his eyes as well. "Sleep well, I look forward to see how you turn out when you're older"
