Yuki: Hey people. For the holiday vacation, i'm not grounded, so I decided I would put something new up.

Sheets of rain poured from the black clouds to engulf the city of Konoha. People rushed to get inside and out of the storm. However, Uchiha Sasuke was not one of them. Now a jounin and best friend to the Hokage, Naruto, Sasuke had to be a good little ninja and patrol the streets(his punishment for not handing in a mission report).

Mew

What was that? Sasuke walked over to the side of the street.

Mew!

Sasuke peered into a sodden cardboard box where the sound was coming from. Inside, there was a soaked tabby kitten. Water had begun to fill the bottom of the box.

Mew! Mew!

"Shut up, cat. I don't have time for this. Go take care of yourself like I had to." Sasuke kicked the box and continued on patrol.

Two hours later, the rain was still coming down hard. Sasuke had finished his rounds and was walking back the way he had came before. He stopped for a second and looked around the street. All he could hear was the rain. He glanced at the box that had held the kitten. He sighed.

"It probably got out," he muttered. But he walked over to it anyway. He looked in, then instantly looked away and closed his eyes tight. The water in the box had risen to the lid, and in the middle of the pool of water, the kitten was floating face down.

"Oh, jeeze." Sasuke groaned. "I can see grown men and women die, but I can't take it when a stupid cat dies? God, I'm weak." Sighing, he squatted in front of the box and watched the body bob up and down as the rain hit the surface. Sasuke knew it was dead. He knew. But he just had to check. Biting his lip, he reached his hand out and hesitantly poked the body.

A radiant light enveloped the kitten. Sasuke jumped back in shock, instinctively grabbing a shuriken from his back pocket. He watched in masked amazement as the dead kitten was picked up by a beautiful woman with a holy glow about her. The woman looked at him and shook her head in disappointment, black strands of hair following her movements. She rocked the kitten in her arms and placed a hand on it's small head. Closing her eyes, she started to chant. The dead kitten's body disintegrating into tiny particles of light in her hands.

Turning to Sasuke, the woman held her hands together in front of her, palms up, and blew the light particles at him with a surprisingly strong wind. Sasuke gasped as the light went into his body, and the last thing he saw was the woman placing the body of the dead kitten in front of adult cat that seemed to be crying.
