AN:Hey everyone!Ok, so i was looking over this story after catching up with all the naruto shippuden, and i couldn't help but feel that it was getting too OOC and Mary-Sue for my taste, and so

i am revising the entire thing.

I'm also going to put the old story on may page for those of you who like the old one. I might continue updates for that one but i highly doubt it. Well, with that said, please read and review. ^_^ i loooove reviews. They force me to write until i can't any longer. (Carpel tunnel. ) XP

Disclaimer:i don't own Naruto or... Kakashi. :*( huff. you get the picture. BUT... i do own this awesome all over the place REVISED plot! haha!

Ch. 1 To be lost and to be found; the question is which one is worse.

I looked through my luggage for the fifth time to make sure I had everything, sighing as I checked things off. I was going to be entering the military today. I didn't like guns to be honest. yeah, i know that was random; They where too noisy for my taste. just another thing i was going to have to get over seeing as i was going to be working with them now.

Hopefully i will be reimbursed when i get to the base, i thought as i shoved another sock in my bag with a bit more force then needed. I had already been accepted into the Air Force.

I was not looking forward to this, but i did get into the branch i had wanted; the branch that was last to go into the fighting if it came to that. I was lazy at most, but the Air Force looked relatively fun, and i had already gone to JROTC. That and i wanted to stay debt free, and still go to collage.

I would also be an instructor at the base giving Wado ryu lessons and an aviary technician. I was currently a fifth degree Black belt in Wado ryu as well as Jeet Kun do, among other martial art forms. But I still had to pay to practice with sensei. Man, what a drag. And to think I spent more time teaching than him.

"Well, looks like it's time to go," I murmured to my cat who I had in a traveling case. Anbu meowed back at me, expectancy written on his whiskery face. I sighed sadly, weight making my heart heavy as i looked at his little face. this was why i was so glum about having to go today. I was going to have to send my precious baby to stay with my good friend Shane until i got clearance from my commanding officer that i could bring my cat to where ever i had been stationed.

...

I sighed as the radio filled the car with pop music, the window down, letting the moist cool air wash over my face. The sky was misty and overcast, the late summer air starting to show signs of falls coming. I sighed, as I began to drive over a bridge. I hoped Anbu would be ok. Shane was a good guy, but he could be a bit absent minded at times. I looked down for a second to change the radio station. when i looked up there was someone in the road.

"Oh Shit!" i cried as i slammed on the breaks, jerking the steering wheel to the side. Bad move. The bridge was wet and i hydroplaned. I screamed when the front of my car broke through the railing on the bridge. Oh my gosh, i'm going to go over, i thought. my body seemed to move on it's own as this thought formed. Before i could comprehend it, i had opened my door and flung myself as hard as i could out of the vehicle. The water rushed toward me as the air seemed to scream as i fell. Splat! I hit the surface hard. there was pain in arm and in my ankle as i fought to the surface, coughing and sputtering. i heard someone yelling as i fought against the water with growing desperation. I was wearing sweats and a camisole, and the pants where dragging me down. they where collecting too much water. i would drown if i didn't get them of. I took a deep breath as i went under water for a moment, slipping the heavy sweats off. I broke the surface of the easily this time and shook water from my eye. I froze. there was a man standing on the water right in front of me.

"anata ha daijixyoubu desu ka, onna?" He said as i stared at him in complete shock. He had horrific cuts across his face, was wearing a big black trench coat and had a bandanna wrapped around his head. there was also an emblem on the metal plate that was on his bandanna. it looked like some kind of odd swirly leaf that i had seen before, but i couldn't tell from where. what the hell? he was speaking in japanese to boot.

He frowned as i gaped at him like an idiot, starting to look a bit irritable.

"douyou ni? anata ni kotaeru tsumor ha nai desu ka?"He barked, his arms now crossing his chest making him look even scarier. i flinched and slowly began to swim away from him toward the shore, trying to figure out a way to get away from him. When i looked back at him his eyes where narrowed, the look on his face clear. I know exactly what you're planning missy, and it won't work. i squeaked and dove under water, swimming as fast as i could toward the shore. when i resurfaced i was a good twenty feet away and only another twenty feet from the shore. I squeaked when i saw him running at me quickly and dove again, this time going at an angle so he would be less likely to be where i resurfaced. when i reached the shallow end i was sure he could see me under water so i burst through the surface, struggling to get to shore. a firm hand gripped my upper arm. i looked up in alarm. this guy was fast.

"anata ha dare desu ka! kotae te kudasai!" He barked, his tone commanding.

"Just leave me alone! go away! shoo! Go back to japan or where ever the hell you're from and leave me alone!" i snapped going from scared to angry in about three seconds. I should have been in the Marines for my temper. He blinked in surprise his face one of confusion.

"oh, can you not speak English?" demanded, my tone sarcastic as i placed my fists on my hips. "Oh, well now you know how i feel buddy! how's it feel to get barked at by someone in another language. I just had to jump out of car that's going off a freaking bridge! Now i'm going to miss my flight and my car is gone! the last thing i need is more shit from you!" i snapped before continuing my rant, albeit a bit more quietly, as i muttered to myself. I was a very vocal person. "I can't believe this. The dude walks on water. How is that possible? last time i checked, only ninjas or that jesus dude could do that." I murmured.

"But ninjas don't exist in real life. And you're not Jesus!" I yelled in exasperation. It was at that moment that i felt his fingers flex, making me look at him. He was frowning and studying me carefully.

"What? It's not like i can give you a good answer, even if you did yell at me again. I can only speak four languages, and japanese can't count because i only know about twenty words and phrases, like 'hurry', 'shut up' and all the curse words. like 'baka.'" i grinned when he frowned at the word that was japanese for idiot.

"I know a few more rude words," i said, my tone that of an offer. the guy then gave a grin managing to look dangerous and a little good-natured at the same time.

"Oh, that's ok. i don't believe you need to prove your vocabulary; at least not to me." he said with a heavy accent. my eyes widened, my expression mildly surprised and slightly pleased.

"You can speak english! awesome! now that you can understand what i'm saying; Let. Me Go." i said, my expression deadpan. I was waist deep in the water and he was crouched next to me holding my arm. Needless to say i was starting to get cold. I frowned at the water. It should have been a lot warmer; it was only the beginning of autumn.

"So you can run away? i think not." he said as he lifted me by my arm out of the water making me shriek.

"Dude, i'm not decent! i'm only wearing a cami and panties for crying out load! what are you some kind of kidnapper? A pervert?! I know Wado ryu, jeet kun do, and several other martial arts, so don't test me, let me go!" i demanded, my voice growing more and more in volume and pitch as he began to walk to the shore. when we reached dry land i preparied myself to kick him in the nads; instead i caught sight of the trees and land around me. i froze and stopped struggling, making my captor pause to frown at me.

"This isn't right." i whispered as i examined the trees. there was something alien about them. I had never seen trees like this. Or shrubs for that matter. In fact the one in front of me looked really odd. it was gnarled and the bark was black and smooth. so smooth. fascinated i reach out and touch it just as my captor tried to stop me.

"No-!" whoosh! the tree seemed to spring to life, roots shooting from the ground. i shrieked as one wrapped around my ankle. in a flash my captor pulled out a short blade and sliced the roots off. he then yanked me under his am and leaped away from the plant, a good twenty feet before landing on to of the water.

"What the hell are you? and why do you have a knife?" i shrieked as he shot me a frown before returning his attention back to the plant before us.

"What is that thing? and where am i?" i asked, my tone awed and horrified. My captor shot me a deeper frown, this one no longer laced with irritation. Suddenly roots shot out from the water. I yelped when we leaped clear of the root, and gripped my captor's trench coat as best i could from my place tucked under his arm. My captor sent a knife with a tag on it at the plant that exploded. this was too much. I fainted before we could even land again.

...

"anata ha daijixyoubu desu ka, Ibiki- san?" came someone's voice from the fog that filled me head. my head felt really weird like it had been gone through; i was remembering things that i had forgotten years ago, and old memories where sweeping past, leaving me disorientated and confused.

"kono you ni shinjiru tsumori ha nai desu," said a familiar man's voice. suddenly memories of the car crash and the weird guy where flashing in my head an my eyes shot open, only to stare into my captors eyes, his expression unfathomable.

"Nani?" asked the masked man beside my captor. my captor's eyebrows pulled together in a frown as he examined me.

" kanojixyo ha kono sekai kara de ha nai," he said. the masked man beside him stiffened in shock.

"NANI?! anata ha watashi ni jixyoudan wo motte iru!" the guy cried, looking really worked up about something, making me start to fidget nervously.

"What are you two saying?" i asked, not sure i wanted to know. My captor was silent for a moment before speaking.

"I was asked if i was alright, and i told him that he wasn't going to believe what i just found. He asked me 'what,' and i told him that you are not from this world." he said. I cringed as another wave of memories flashed past and grimaced.

"Did you go through my head or something to find all that out?" i asked jokingly. when he nodded, his expression serious, my jaw dropped and i stared at him like an idiot again.

"you went through my head?! how?" after a second of outrage and anger, my curiosity got to me and i began to eagerly question my scar faced captor.

"... can you teach me? can you do more cool stuff?" i asked. he frowned at me.

"You want to learn?" he asked looking serious. I nodded slowly, completely serious.

"Then learn our language first. Then i will teach you." i frowned at him, my lips pursed.

"Do you promise on... your honor?" i asked, holding out my hand. I had heard that the japanese where real big on the whole honor thing. he actually smile this time. It was a bit scary with the scars but he managed to make it charming in a rugged sort of way.

"Alright. i promise." i couldn't help but smile at him. I leaned back against the tree to my back and looked around my captor at the forest and the team of men behind him, going this way and that as they set up a camp, all of them either wearing animal masks with grey vests and black pants, or all black outfits.

"what's your name?" my captor asked suddenly distracting me from the working team of men.

"Uh, you didn't get that from my memories?" i asked him. he shook his head and i shrugged.

"I changed it when i was fifteen for some reason. I can't really remember why. I got amnesia right afterwards." with that i held out my hand with a slight grin.

"The name's Kumori Kenpatsu." my captor smirked as he took the offered and and hesitantly shook it making me snicker. so he didn't know how to shake hands.

"Funny name for someone who doesn't speak our language. Are all names like that where you come from?" he asked making me scold him.

"No. i changed it remember." at this i sighed irritably. "In fact i think i could speak Japanese fairly well until i got Amnesia." i frowned feeling glum.

"well, wasn't there anyone you could ask? Any family or such that would have known?" he asked. I grimaced again and shot him an irritable look.

"They all died in... the car crash that i got my amnesia from." I grumbled, hoping he didn't notice my lie. Before he could ask for detail as his face suggested he would, i launched a counter strike.

"what about you? What's your name?" i asked. the guy shook his head and chuckled to himself.

"Morino Ibiki." he said. i tilted my head to the side as i thought over it.

"That man earlier said Ibiki-san. what does that mean?"

"I'm not positive, but in your language i believe it means the same as Mr. or Ms." I nodded.

"Well, nice to meet you Ibiki," i said holding out my hand again. His eyebrow rose.

"its Ibiki-san to you," he said, trying to correct me. I grinned, enjoying teasing him.

"I think i like Ibiki better. Besides where i come from, saying mister and miss every time is rather formal. even people who don't know each other very well will call each other by their first name. His face darkened to a frightening mask but the twinkle in his eye suggested that he wasn't as mad as he was pretending to be. He opened his mouth to say something but a sudden pounding pain fill my head, making me shriek in pain. It felt like my head was being ripped apart.

"What did you do to me?!" i managed to choke out. The shocked and concerned look on Ibiki's face told me that he didn't know. after another few second of blinding pain my eyes rolled up in my head and i fainted.

...

The first few things I was aware of as I began to regain consciousness once more, was the strong smell of antiseptic, the feel of course sheets and the muffled sound of people moving down the hall. I groaned as I sat up. My mouth felt kind of dry and as my eyes opened, I found myself staring at a white ceiling.

I lay back once more and closed my eyes as I thought, my mind working at an alarming speed considering I had just regain consciousness once more. I frowned; that was odd. I mean, really really odd, for me. usually when i first got up i needed a good strong coffee to get my brain working and all the little neurons firing correctly.

I wonder where Ibiki is, i thought as i massaged my temples. and I wonder what that pain had been? it hurt like a bitch though. I frowned as i looked around to take in my surroundings. I was in a sterile hospital room lying in a small bed, dressed in coarse hospital cloths. I looked around and found that I was alone.

i guess after i passed out, they took me to a hospital to see what was wrong. it looks a lot like the ones they have back home, anyways. I wonder where i am though. Definitely not in america, i thought to myself. With a huff i sat up. i could see some clothing of mine in a chair so maybe my luggage had showed up in the lake i had come out of. If that was the case i needed to see Ibiki. I got out of my bed and made my way over to the chair in front of my bed against the wall where some of my cloths sat folded and waiting for me. they where dry and clean so maybe my luggage hadn't gotten wet. the cases where supposed to be water proof, but that usually didn't mean jack shit unless it was the good stuff. maybe it hadn't been such a bad buy after all.

A fresh bra sat under my shirt and I couldn't help but sigh with relief at the welcome sight. Making sure the door to my room was shut, with a chair under the nob I pulled the hospital gown off and let it flow to the ground, leaving me in my under wear. I then unclasped my bra and let it fall as a gentle breeze swept through the room. I turned just in time to see a man wearing one of those animal masks and grey vests leap in through the window. He froze as he stared at me in my barely covered state.

"AAAAAEEIIIIIIIIHHHH!" I screamed, covering my breasts with an arm while I grabbed my clothes off the chair, trying to use them to hide my body. He seemed rooted on the spot. I would have bet ten bucks that his jaw dropped and his eyes bugging out of his head. I felt furry begin to well up in me when blood from a nose bleed began to leak out from under his mask to drip down and stain the front of his vest with red.

"YOU PERVERT! GET OUT!" I screamed as I grabbed the vase on the table next to the chair had originally been sitting. With that I sent it hurtling at his head. It shattered along with his mask on contact but he didn't even seem to notice, and it let me see his face. He had black hair in a bowl cut and huge bushy brows with defined cheek bones. As i had thought his eyes where bugging and his mouth hung open in shock and his eyes where rooted on my chest. I shuddered and grabbed the chair next, sending it flying at him, shrieking insults all the while. He dodged it easily, but because I had thrown it so hard, I lost my grip on my cloths and once more I found myself revealed. He then fainted, his face a brilliant red, his nose gushing blood and a little smile on his lips. Cursing I moved to kicked the unconscious guy out of my room before another guy with an animal mask and a grey vest leaped in through the window and froze, staring at me. I shrieked and yanked the hospital shirt back on beet red and furious.

"Get out, you fucking pervert, and take your friend with you!" i demanded. the man that had just entered was quiet for a moment and my temper flared.

"Can't you hear me old guy!" i demanded. The guy had white hair and i couldn't see his face so i could only assume that he was either prematurely white, or was an old dude.

"I'm not old." he finally said, his English heavily accented, reminding me that not everyone could speak English here; reminding me that i was all alone in a foreign world and that no one would notice if anything ever happened to me. after all, i didn't belong here. i blinked and my anger drained, leaving me feeling glum and lonely.

"Did he... do anything?" asked the masked man with white hair. I blushed feeling alone and vulnerable. even if he had, who would have cared or done anything about it?

"He saw me when i was changing, just like you" i murmured, "And he fainted." my face was probably blazing red. I was so embarrassed i just wanted these odd masked men gone.

"Just leave me alone," i murmured sinking to the ground behind my bed, feeling really depressed. when he moved toward me i spoke.

"Please." i whispered, and he stopped. I laid my head in my knees and wrapped my arms around myself, trying to get a grip on my turbulent emotions; the fear, the anger, the frustration.

I had no idea where i was or if i was ever going to be able to get home again. I was never going to see my little Anbu again or- i shook my head to chase away my thoughts as i bit my lip. No, i was not going to start crying, i was not going to break down. that wouldn't solve anything. I bit my lip till warm blood coated my tongue and i released it with a sigh. I hadn't bitten through it. only enough to draw blood. I quickly wiped away the blood and I looked around when i realized how quiet it had gotten to find both the men from earlier gone. now would be a good time to get dressed properly.

I was almost done dressing; i fact i just had my shirt left to go and i would be completely clothed. I had just finished pulling on said shirt when the door to my room opened and in barged Ibiki, making me jump in shock.

"Gah!" I cried before scolding him. "Doesn't anyone ever knock around here? Sheesh! The next man that walks in on me without knocking is going to get sucker-punched in the balls!" I snapped my face a brilliant red, my tone laced with irritation. Ibiki frowned at me. I looked away when his gaze went to my damaged lip.

"Something the matter?" he asked, his tone gruff. I looked down shifting from foot to foot.

"Yeah, I barely finished putting my shirt on and you burst into my room." i muttered. he raised an eyebrow at my irritable but more subdued to tone.

"... What happened?" he asked moving closer. I blushed.

"One of the masked guys barged in on me changing... he fainted after a moment." i shook my head in irritation.

"Annoying perverts," i grumbled. Ibiki chuckled, causing me to shoot him a scathing glare.

"And who was it?" he asked, his voice teasing. Despite my irritation, i still managed to crack a reluctant smile at his teasing words.

"Some guy with a a bowl hair cut, bushy eyebrows and black hair." i said, and ibiki stopped chuckling to frown at me.

"How do you know what he looks like," he demanded. I shrugged.

"His mask broke when i threw a vase at him," i said. After a second Ibiki began to roar in laughter. I blushed and stomped my foot, growing more out raged with ever laugh he took.

"Whats so fuckin' funny about this huh?!" i demanded. Ibiki's laughter died down to a chuckle as he pat my head in a comforting manner.

"The idea that Gai-san fainted at the sight of you undressed; if nothing it is comical. Well, if anything, you must be breathtakingly beautiful for you to make him loose his cool like that. He has seen plenty of women in his time, both seductress and beauties alike and that has never been a problem for him." I was sure my face was fire hydrant red as i fidgeted and squirmed.

"your just trying to flatter me into silence," i grumbled as Ibiki chuckled again. "So, how long have I been in here?" I asked wanting to change the topic. the huge guy shrugged as he sat on the end of my bed, his eyes flickering to my damaged lip then away. Figures he wouldn't ask.

"Oh, not long. Just six days." i frowned. wow, that was longer then i had expected. i pouted at the thought before wincing at the dull throb coming from my lower lip. There was something that was bugging me since i had gotten here that i wanted to as Ibiki while i had the chance.

"How come you can speak English? I'm guessing its not a common language here," i said. Ibiki's brow furrowed and his appearance grew foreboding and intimidating.

"It was a code used by the Anbu black ops during the third great ninja war. Originally the language was discover ten years prior to the war but never taught or used. It was kept under s-ranked clearance in case we would ever need it. All the materials that surfaced containing your language, came from the lake you came out of. That is why we have Anbu patrolling that area." i frowned. What where 'Anbu?' And why did they have the same name as my cat? i was guessing that he was referring to the masked men in the grey vests though. I shook my head as Ibiki continued,"I just happened to be making my monthly check in at the outpost when you surface." After a moment Ibiki leaned forward his hand going to the top if my head to prod my hair experimentally with his index finger.

"As i expected," he murmured now watching me intently. I frowned at him.

"What are you doing?" i asked, feeling slightly irritated and a bit nervous. the intense expression he had on his face was making me uneasy.

"Your hair is turning purple..." he said quietly.

"What?!" i demanded, quickly grabbing a strand to see. I frowned when deep chestnut brown met my gaze.

"What are you-" the words died in my mouth as the strand started turning a beautiful deep aubergine purple. I looked at him in shock, struck dumb. I bit my lips again, starting to freak out.

"what did you mean when you said, 'as expected?'" i asked, pausing suddenly as i comprehended that bit of knowledge. I was guessing that whatever items had appeared here before, had undergone a change as i was currently doing, but i needed to confirm my suspicion first.

"Everything that has come out of that lake has gained extraordinary properties, and undergone some form of metamorphosis. i imagine you will as well, very soon." I cracked a nervous grin.

"Is that why head of an elite branch, i'm guessing Anbu, seeing as you can speak english and it was only taught to them, is visiting little ole me?" i asked, my tone joking, "To see what happens when the transformation takes place?" Ibiki chuckled.

"I can see your intelligence is being amplified." he said. i grinned before cringing as a shape pain shot through my body before leaving.

"Your eyes are different now as well." he said. As he said this i noticed my sight and sense of smell and hearing increase making me wrinkle my nose and cover my ears as i squinted at Ibiki.

"I feel like I've just gotten a concussion; all my senses... they're- ugh!" i groaned. growing unsteady as i cringed at the onslaught of new things. Ibiki caught me and called for a nurse, making me flinch as my body began to tremble. little did i know that this was only the beginning.
