"But I can! I'm the future Hokage!" A young girl's voice shrieked in the distance.
"Third, we have an emergency!"
"Hokage!"
"Eh? Did that Tokiwa do something again?" The Hokage sighed his messy gray hair sticking to his sweaty forehead as he sharpened his sword only pausing to stare at the two men.
"Hai! She did something to the stone faces of the Hokage." The man in every-day attire croaked fed up with the childs antics.
"Totally vandalized them!" The other in ninja-attire voiced in the same tone.
He sighed once more exhaling the smoke.
"Stop!"
Tokiwa snickered her thick mane of silver hair whipping harshly with the wind as she jumped from rooftop to rooftop with a hoard of ninjas from the village chasing after her. Tiring of the chase she pressed her back against the wooden gates surrounding the streets using a covering spell to hide her body chuckling in delight when the men passed before her, mentally clucking her tongue at how stupid they were.
"Idiots!" She laughed rubbing the back of her head unaware of the approaching ninja till it was to late.
"Hey Tokiwa!
Screeching and jumping about ten feet in the air at being surprised before falling on her bottom facing the obviously irritated man.
"Yah! What are you doing here Rio-Sensei?"
Rio narrowed his warm brown eyes before pointing towards the little girl sitting on the ground with a scowl, "What are you doing during class kid?"
Tokiwa huffed struggling against the ropes that held her down as she sat before her sensei in the classroom. "Listen Tokiwa. You're no genius. You failed the exams twice in a row. You of all people shouldn't be fooling around!"
Tokiwa shrugged turning her nose up which infuriated her sensei more.
"We're going to have a review test for the transformation technique! Those who passed will have to line up as well!"
The classroom pratically shook as the students roared in disapproval.
"Rin Nakamura going!" A girl with a side pony-tail and messy hair beamed. "Transform!" The cheery little girl turned into an exact clone of her sensei.
"Okay!"
"I did it" She giggled turning to face her and every other girl crush, "Did you see me Sesshomaru-Sama? I did it!"
"Next. Sesshomaru Taisho"
"Hn." A boy with silky silver hair murmured walking arrogantly to his sensei already in the clone of his sensei.
"All right. Next, Imoutu Tokiwa."
Tokiwa scowled as Kouga next to her snickered saying something about a waste of time to which everyone save Sesshomaru laughed.
"Yes. This is all your fault." Kagura groaned.
"You all act like I care!" Tokiwa snorted walking forward to her sensei unaware of the blushing boy beside her silently encouraging her.
Tokiwa closed her eyes and smirked.
"Here I go!"
But instead of a clone resembling her sensei, it was one of a older form of her nude but covered by clouds in the appropriate places blowing a kiss at her obviously distressed sensei who's nose had begun to leak.
Back in her usual form Tokiwa snickered pointing at Rio, "How was that, eh? I call that my seduction technique perv!"
"You baka! Don't invent such a jutsu!"
"Damn it! Damn it!" Tokiwa growled angrily wiping at the faces of the stone Hokage's her sensei not to far away.
"And don't even think about quitting. You aren't going home until you clean it up good" He smirked his arms folding across his chest.
Tokiwa shrugged turning cold eyes onto him. "Like I care! No one's waiting for me at home anyway. Mmm!" And went back to scrubbing oblivious to the odd look on her sensei's face.
"Tokiwa?"
"What is it now sensei?" Tokiwa grumbled annoyed.
"Well...," He paused thinking. "If you clean it all up I'll treat you to some Shrimp Lu Mein tonight."
Tokiwa gasped her eyes widening before she yelled in happiness. Surely everyone in her village could have heard her. "Totally! I'll be finished in no time!"
Tokiwa sighed in happiness and inhaled the plesant scent of the ramen-bar she often went to while sitting next to her sensei, slurping her noodles in delight.
"Tokiwa?"
"Mmmm?"
"Why did you vandalize such a place? You do know who the hokages are, right?" Her sensei asked confused.
"Hai!" Tokiwa giggled a little setting her now empty bowl onto the stand. "They were the number one ninjas in this village. Rumor is the fourth protected this village from a monster dog with strange silver fur, black markings and elven ears." Tokiwa fell silent as she thought about her silver hair, elven ears and black markings.
"Then why did yo-"
"Because, I'm going to be greater than every single one of them. Combined." Tokiwa smirked pointing her chopsticks at her sensei who appeared silly with noodles hanging out of his mouth.
"Then, I'm going to make everyone in the village recognize my powers!" Tokiwa sighed then clasped her fingers together with a hopefully expression, "Say sensei. I have a favor."
"Still hungry?"
"No..well yeah." Tokiwa giggled a little at his bewildered look. "But that's not it. Can I uh...wear your headband? Pleaseee!"
"Ah, this?" He smiled touching the headband that he wore around his forehead. "Of course not! You can only wear this when you're a real ninja squirt. Hopefully you'll get yours tomorrow."
"Terrible man!" Tokiwa whined loud enough for bystanders to chuckle, only because they was oblivious to whom the voice belonged to. "Just give me another bowl! I'm starving!"
"We will now start the final exam. When your name is called, go to the classroom next door." Tokiwa nervously watched her sensei who was reading from the rule sheet. "The subject will be the replication technique."
At this all thoughts of passing went out the door and Tokiwa slumped her head in defeat when not even ten minutes later she failed. The pale clone of herself lay on the floor, eyes twirling as if she had been spinning for hours.
"Rio-Sensei, her stamina and movements are very well, and well she did replicate." A man with spiky orange hair said.
"Maybe we can just pass her?"
Her sensei shook his head killing the tiny second of happiness. "Iie. Haru, everyone else is able to produce at least three clones. Tokiwa here can only produce one who is more harm then good."
"...I cannot pass her."
Tokiwa gritted her fangs together digging her claws into her thighs.
Tokiwa sat alone on the swing like she always did watching the scene before her. All of her classmates were wearing their headband surrounded by their parents and friends.
"I'm a real ninja mom, right dad?"
"Of course! You're so amazing! You are our child after all!"
"Good job on graduating honey, you, your mother and I are celebrating tonight!"
Tokiwa bowed her head.
"Hey, it's that girl. You know that girl. She was the only one who failed."
One of the girls sneered at her, "Serves her right!"
"Hai. If she becomes a ninja it'll only going to cause a load of trouble." The other girl with an equal hateful glance said.
"Because she's a..."
Tokiwa turned cold amber eyes onto them wrapping her silky silver hair around a ivory clawed finger.
"Hey! What are you doing? You know its forbidden to say anything more than that."
"Hey. You."
Tokiwa raised a perfect brow and turned to the side looking up to see the man that suggested to her sensei that she just pass. He had a hand on his hip and was smirking. In the distance she was unaware of her sensei watching the entire ordeal.
Tokiwa and Haru sat on a cliff watching the sun-set.
"You know, Rio-Sensei wasn't being mean kid."
Tokiwa snorted and rolled her eyes. "Yeah. That's why he constantly picks on me the most."
"Iie. He only wants you to become truly strong, Imoutu Tokiwa...since you two don't have any parents."
Tokiwa frowned and straightened her legs out so they leaned over the cliff. "But I really wanted to graduate."
Haru laughed and glanced at her from the side of his eye. "So be it."
"Eh?"
"I'll tell you a big secret Tokiwa."
Tokiwa stared at him with her wide amber eyes.
No one has ever told me a secret before...
"Rio."
"What is it Hokage-Sama?"
"I understand how you feel, but Tokiwa to grew up without knowing the love of a parent."
Rio lay sprawled under his head gazing at the rooftop mirror which showed the outside.
He sighed closing his eyes visualizing the same memory that had replayed itself so often, it was of him being carried away from the battle-field where the monstrous dog was going on rampage. A crying Rio was reaching for his parents.
"Rio-Sensei! Wake up!"
Rio's eyes flew open at the sound of Haru's urgent voice, quickly throwing over the covers he rushed to open his door.
"What is it?"
"Please come to Hokage-Sama place immediately! It seems that Tokiwa has stolen the scroll of sealing!"
Rio's eyes widened, "The scroll of sealing. What?"
Tokiwa leaned against a tree tilting her head to the side. "Let's see...the first technique is. Multiple Shadow Replication."
"Eh?" Tokiwa smacked her head and groaned as the words pratically blended into one another, "I'm no good at this!"
"Hokage-Sama! We cannot let this slide by as a prank!" One of the village ninjas yelled as they surrounded the man by almost a hundred.
"The scroll of sealing is dangerous, it was sealed by the first hokage himself!" Another barked. "If its used in a bad way..."
"If it is carried it out of this village, it will become a wide-spread problem!"
"Bring Tokiwa here." The Hokage murmured dismissing them not waiting for a responce.
Rio was panting, flushed at the long-task of searching for Tokiwa. Just where did you go Tokiwa?
Haru cooed in delight as he rushed throughout the village a large sharagian on his back his eyes twinkling in desire. I'm going to spread the news throughout the village. Then, kill that bitch Tokiwa! Then, the scroll of sealing will be mine!
Tokiwa had the scroll strapped to her back panting harshly and only looked up when she saw her sensei leaning over her his eyes twitching. "To-Ki-Wa."
Tokiwa giggled a little and stood up. "What a drag. I only learned one technique."
Rio stared at her in shock. She practiced here? In the forest till she was all worn out?
"Oi, Sensei! I'm going to show you a amazing technique. You'll have no choice to graduate me after seeing! Right?"
"Eh? Who said that?" Rio bit out shocked.
"Haru-Sensei! He told me about this place and the scroll." Tokiwa waved her arms and wasn't prepared for when her sensei pushed her. Looking up she gasped.
Rio had been pinned to the wall with sharagian and was bleeding.
"I'm surprised you found about this place" Haru chuckled.
Rio swallowed a lump at the pain, "I see. So that's how it is."
"Tokiwa, hand over the scroll." Rio smirked kneeling on a branch on the tree he landed upon.
"Eh?" Tokiwa eyes went back and forward from Haru to Rio then back to her sensei when he began to speak.
"Tokiwa, don't let him get that scroll no matter what," Haru was panting as if it was hard to talk, "That's a dangerous scroll that has forbidden techniques! Haru used you so he could get his hands on it!"
Tokiwa stood up angrily and narrowed her eyes at Haru.
"Iie Tokiwa. Rio is afraid of you possessing that. But not only Rio, everyone is."
"Huh?" Tokiwa glanced at her tense Sensei.
"What are you saying, Haru?" Rio turned to look at her with pleading eyes "Don't believe him Tokiwa!"
Haru chuckled and dismissed Rio entirely turning to face Tokiwa. "I'll tell you the truth kid."
"Don't Haru!"
"Something like a law was created after the incident that happened twelve years ago when you were born"
"A law? When I was born?"
"Hai. Its only a rule that you Tokiwa cannot find about. Its this home of yours secret from you."
"Eh? Why only me? What is i-" She was interrupted by her sensei voice roaring for Haru to stop. Rio was a kind soul...he never really became angry.
"It's the law not to say that Tokiwa is a monster dog."
"W-What" Tokiwa eyes widened impossibly as she stepped back shaking her head.
"In other words girl, you are the great dog-demon who killed Rio's parents and destroyed our village and comrades."
"Stop!"
Tokiwa closed her eyes and felt herself trapped in a spiral all the while Haru's words pierced at her.
"You've been hated by the village people all this time."
Flashbacks of Tokiwa sitting alone on the swing made her stomach lurch painfully.
"- Didn't you think it was odd for everyone to hate you so much...although they didn't know you?"
"No!" Tokiwa screamed pressing her palms on either side of her head oblivious to the black chakra surrounding her. "No! No! No!"
Tokiwa!
"No one is ever going to like you bitch! Even Rio hates you!"
Noticing the trance-like state in Haru smirked and took his chance. Grasping the large sharagain on his back he twirled it aiming it at the distressed girl, "Die Tokiwa!"
Tokiwa shrieked and turned around and stumbled crawling on all fours.
"Tokiwa! Duck!"
Tokiwa eyes widened as she turned to look at her sensei...and at the sharagian embeded deep into his back.
"W..Why?" Tokiwa whimpered staring into Rio's eyes even as the blood from him dripped onto her face.
"Because...you're the same as me. After my parents died, no one ever complimented or recognized me."
Rio smiled slightly at the flashbacks of his childhood.
"Being the bad kid I was I screwed up a lot during class. Because I wanted to get everyone ones attention, and the only way I could was when I acted like a idiot."
"It was tough Tokiwa." He smiled more at the startled expression she was giving. "Right Tokiwa? You're lonely, right?"
Tear by tear stained Tokiwa's face as they rolled down Rio's cheek and onto hers. "It was tough, right? I'm so sorry Tokiwa. If only I was aware...you wouldn't have felt this way for so long."
"Don't make me laugh!" Haru sneered. "Rio has hated you, and always will so! Afterall it was you that killed his parents! He just wants to get that scroll back Tokiwa."
He was right. Why would Rio care for her after she had killed his parents?
Turning accussing eyes onto her she pushed him away before getting up and sprinting in the opposite direction ignoring his pleads.
"Tokiwa isn't the type to change her mind...in fact she's going to take revenge with that scroll." Haru chuckled leaping onto the ground beside Rio. "You saw her eyes didn't you? It was the eyes of a monster dog."
Rio sneered and reached back to remove the sharagain from his back and stood throwing it blindly at Haru who easily dodged it. "Tokiwa isn't like that!"
"Hn. As long as I kill that girl and get the scroll, I could care less. For now, I have to depart. Kill you later." Haru laughed leaping off after Tokiwa.
I won't let you!
"Ah...this isn't good at all." The Hokage murmured staring at the events through a glass ball on his desk. "That fool told Tokiwa the secret...she isn't stable at all. She could possibly release the spell on her seal."
"Tokiwa!" 'Rio' called out chasing after the sprinting girl. "Everything that Haru said is a lie! Hand over the scroll now, he's after it!"
Tokiwa launched after the clone of him punching him in the chest landing a few feet from him.
"W-What?" Her 'sensei' breathed. "How Tokiwa...did you know it wasn't me?" Haru reverted back to usual self glaring at the girl who leaned against a tree grinning before changing back to his form.
"Because I'm Rio."
Haru stood annoyed. "I see."
Not knowing to them Tokiwa was hiding behind a tree listening to their conversation.
"What use is their in protecting the girl who killed your parents?"
"Eh. I'm not going to let a stupid pest like you get the scroll." Rio murmured.
Tokiwa frowned. So this was just about the stupid scroll?
"You're the pest, fool. Tokiwa is the same as me."
"Same as you?"
"Hai. Anything is possible with that scroll," Haru pratically cooed invisioning himself with such power. "Their's no way that Tokiwa, the great dog-demon won't use its powers."
"Yeah, you're right."
Tokiwa felt a deeper pain at her sensei admitting it hugging the scroll closer to her. "I knew it." Closing her eyes she tried to hold back the tears.
"Rio-Sensei is just like everyone else. He doesn't recognize me inside." Preparing to stand up she stopped at her sensei's next words.
"If she was a monster dog. Tokiwa is different. She's an excellent student that I recognize."
Rio paused to let out a pained laugh and smiled. "She's a hardworking, honest, clumsy, and not a soul recognizes her. She knows the pain of others. She isn't a monster dog. She's Itomou Tokiwa of the Shikon village!"
Tokiwa pressed her face into her palms wiping at the heavy tears as her shoulders shook at the force of her sensei's words. It was as if a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulder.
Haru was shaking now. "You're an idiot!" And reached for another large sharagain. "Rio, I said I would kill you later, but I take that back." He snarled twirling the sharagian. "Die now!"
Haru bowed his head in acceptance and smiled as Rio rushed at him, but wasn't prepared for Tokiwa to come flying from behind the tree he rested on kneeling Haru in the stomach.
"Tokiwa!"
"Damn you..." Tokiwa sneered resting her hand on the scroll which she leaned against the ground. "Don't even think about laying a finger on Rio-sensei."
Her eyes flashed between molten amber and red as her grip tightened claws digging into the scroll. "I'll fucking kill you if you do!"
Haru stood glaring daggers at Tokiwa. "Shut up girl! I'll kill you both!"
Tokiwa spread her legs bringing her hands in front of her in a jutsu smirking. "I'll inflict damage upon you a thousand times more!"
Haru began to rush towards her, "Why don't you try it if you can, you worthless monster dog!"
Rio's mouth dropped at Tokiwa's words "Shadow replication!" and even more so when he noticed that the jutsu had worked and several thousand had surrounded them.
Tokiwa you used the shadow replication...amazing. It's a high class technique where you create an actual living body!
"What?" Haru yelled in surprise. Surely this wasn't the same girl who couldn't even create a clone!
"What's the matter Haru?"
"Come and get me!"
"Come on!"
"Don't tell me you're scared, scaredy cat!"
One of the many bodies of Tokiwa laughed as one kneeled and smirked baring her fangs. "If you don't come, I will!"
"Me too!" Many of the shadow replications echoed..
Haru could only scream in pain and fear as they all came at him at once...
Tokiwa stood before a seriously beat up Haru smirking and rubbing the back of her head while staring at her sensei. "Maybe I hurt him to much?" She paused thinking about him hurting her sensei. "Naw!"
"Rio-Sensei are you okay?"
"Yeah..." He grumbled in awe against the tree.
What a girl. She might surpress all of the hokage after all.
"Tokiwa. Come here for a second, I want to give you something."
"Did anyone find Tokiwa?"
"No."
"Damn this isn't good at all."
"There's no need to worry anymore." The Hokage eyes were bright in amusement.
"Hokage-Sama!"
"She'll come home soon."
"Sensei! Are you done yet?" Tokiwa whined trying hard not to open her eyes when she felt her sensei wrapping something around her forehead.
"Hai! Open your eyes."
Tokiwa stared at her sensei who was now standing and smiling at her through closed eyes...without his headband.
"Congratulations Tokiwa. You pass."
Tokiwa couldn't help the grin that stretched at her lips although she was still in slight shock.
"OK! Lets celebrate. I'll treat you to Shrimp Lu Mein!"
"Rio-Sensei!" Tokiwa squealed launching herself onto her sensei who fell back at the force.
"Ouch Tokiwa! I'm wounded you know!"
Tokiwa ignored him and continued squealing wrapping her thin arms around his neck tighter. And this time her tears were of happiness...of a feeling she thought she would never experience. And how warm it was...
