The Installation of the Head: Tenkai and Tenjiku

Prologue: The Meeting
On the way home from the Capture Kurama Mission, Tenkai slipped into her psyche. A voice echoed in her mind. Hello, Tenkai.

Chinatsu.

''Yes, my reincarnation. Welcome. I see you have accepted your position as headdress.''

Yes...

Good, the voice said, ''I shall be sending someone to meet you. When you report for your mission, finish what you have to do. Then, go to the Forest of Quiet Movement. There, I shall bring your servant, and hopefully, your lover.''

Tch... Tenkai groaned, You know that I will not fall in love with anybody except for my brother, right?

''Haha, I know. I was teasing you.''

''Not funny, Chinatsu. Not funny at all.''

In another half hour, Team Keika and Team 21 had reached home. They made their separate ways and Team Keika went straight to the Hokage's Office to report. Sitting on the seat was, a classmate. "Yo, Sarada," Boruto said, "Mission complete." She asked, "Where is he?" Keika groaned and stuck a hand into the seal in her abdomen. She pulled out a see-through orb and said, "Here." Sarada smiled, "Nice. I knew I could count on you guys. What should we do to the beast?" Tenkai blurted, "I volunteer to be his jinchūriki." Silence struck the room until Boruto said, "No, Tenkai, I can't. You can't just do that." Keika added, "Yeah, sis. We should keep-" Tenkai cut her off, "No, sister. We have to. Use the Eight Trigrams Sealing Style. Same seal as Keika. I shall keep him in check." Sarada settled the argument. "Yes. Boruto, Keika. On the order of the Eighth Hokage, you two are to seal Kurama into Tenkai." The two siblings had a face that clearly stated that they didn't agree but they kept the mouth shut while nodding gravely. "Let us go," Tenkai said as she swept out of the room and to the roof of the Hokage Estate.

Tenkai laid flat on her back as Keika and Boruto together performed the Eight Trigrams Seal. Tenkai cried out in pain as the beast entered her body. She immediately left the plane of the living and arrived in the plane of her mind. Kurama was in the middle of a tantrum. "...you jerk, Naruto! Leaving me alone!" He stopped abruptly when he saw Tenkai. "You are..." Tenkai was about to tell the beast her name when he held up his hand. "Wait, lemme guess. You are Himawari." Tenkai tried not to laugh as she replied, "Yes." Kurama immediately changed gears. "How big you've grown, Hima! Wait a minute, that's your not name anymore, right?" Tenkai nods. She was not prepared for what happens next: Kurama crushed her in a hug. "Ow, ow, ow, ow," Tenkai groaned, "That hurts, Kurama..." Kurama immediately let go and blushed slightly. "Oops. Anyway, here." He held out his hand and Tenkai fist-bumped him. In that instant, she teleported back into the real world and found herself standing, glowing a shade of brown. Keika applauded, "Damn, sis. You are already in Nine-Tails Chakra Mode..." Boruto had his mouth open. After a few seconds, Tenkai reached out and closed his mouth. Tenkai said, "I'll be back. My mentor has told me to go somewhere." The siblings nodded and Tenkai took off into the sky.

She landed in the Forest of Quiet Movement and sat down, cross-legged, waiting for someone to come.
