Welcome back one and all.
Emio is back!
Four-ish years have passed: that is: Everyone is now nineteen, high on the shinobi ranks, (Naruto is the sixth Hokage), ect.
NOTE: This first chapter will be in Third Person POV.

A girl, nineteen years of age, stood with her back leaning against a huge building with fire red walls. She had long black hair with her left bangs braided together. She wore the typical ANBU uniform, with her Konoha forehead protector tied around her neck. But on her belt, on the left side, was another forehead protector, one with the Sand symbol on it.

Someone down the street was running toward her. This girl had pink hair and wore some sort of pink or red outfit, all matching. The girl skidded to a halt in front of the other, taking a few seconds to catch her breath enough to say a few words.

"I'm glad I found you here, Emio. We intercepted a letter from Akatsuki on its way to Itachi," she said, taking in huge rasps of breath every couple of words.

"Itachi?" the girl, Emio, asked, opening her eyes which she had been resting.

"Yeah. You know, Itachu Uchiha, Sasuke's older brother? He's the one who originally taught you how to use your Sharingan Byakugan," the pink-haired girl said, looking up at the kanji for fire on hanging above their heads on the building.

Emio nodded, the information registering, "Yeah, I remember, somewhat... Okay. You want me to go to the tower and check the message? I bet its about me ain't it?"

The girl nodded, a smiling creeping on her face as she exclaimed, "Yes, exactly. Thanks Emio. I've gotta go inform Tsunade-sama."

And the girl vanished into the building. Emio sighed annoyingly. She had just come back from a very long mission that took her halfway across the country and now she had to worry about the people that were out to get her. Well, no, to get the thing inside of her. Emio lazily put her hands together, forming various seals so quickly it looked just like one seal and vanished on the spot.

She reappeared in front of a tall tower where birds constantly flew in and out, acting as messengers between Konoha and its allies. Particularily, Suna. Two Jounin stood on each side of the door, guarding it. Emio walked up to them and said, "Emio Kokami. Sakura told me to come and view the message, let me pass" in a rather cold tone. The Jounin nodded and let her pass, and in front of her lay a few flights of stairs to climb.

"What do you think?" one of the five shinobi present asked Emio, who skimmed the message a second time.

"Nothing to concern yourselves about. Itachi already knows all of this," Emio replied, placing the scroll back onto the table. "In fact, send it to him."

Congratulations on your victorious mission, Itachi. We send you this message in order to relay some information on Kokami's host, Emio. You might have never known, but she used to be blind, a long time ago in the past. And recently as well, when they released the Akito's chains on Kokami. The only reason Emio is who she is today, with her special abilities and able to use her chakra period, and her eyesight, comes from the fact that Kokami transfers all her powers and blood-type jutsu copy abilities to her. This makes no sense what-so-ever as Emio should have just remained the blind useless person from the past... We want to make sure, before our planned attack, that she cannot advance in her abilities. She already has too much from Kokami. Sharingan and Byakugan fused together, whoever thought it would ever happen? Our goal is to make sure nothing goes her way which she can copy without us knowing, or that will make her more a threat. There is one more thing we would like to discuss with you. Meet us at the normal place a week from now for an emergency important brief meeting of you-know-what. It might just determine whether we will be successful or fail at our next mission.

The message, to anyone else, would prove a threat to the safety of Emio and Kokami, the five-tailed wolf that was sealed inside of her. But to Emio, it meant nothing. Itachi already knew all the information displayed in the letter and felt no reason for panic, except for the secret meeting part. It was true though, every word on the page. Emio is blind, which is the reason for her abnormal eye color, the silvery gray they appear. The only reason she can do more than a summoning jutsu at this point in time is because of Kokami's powers sealed inside of her. The reason for her sight, the reason for her blood-line jutsus she would never have had otherwise, the reason she is still alive after such a long period of time.

Just four years back, Kokami had defeated the last of the Akitos, the family that reigned supreme over her and chained her down to an eternal life of slavery under their names. But the chains still bound Emio and Kokami to the world that the wolf returns to when unneeded in the Human world. But Emio cannot survive in that world, no Human can... It took a while to figure out how to successfully remove the chains without causing too much of a side effect. In the end, Kokami was released, unsealed and free to roam the world as she pleases once more and Emio was reduced to nothing more than she used to be before she confronted Kokami a long time ago, blind and useless.

But unlike most demons, Kokami did not appreciate being free anymore, for a huge part was missing as she traveled the world. Emio was no longer riding on her back, like she did when they first met before they were sealed together. She was no longer seeing things through Emio's thoughts. She returned to Suna, where Emio stayed, and chose to seal herself back into Emio. By doing so though, Emio lost all consciousness and memories.

With the help of Sakura and Tsunade-sama, she slowly regained her memories of what had happened since her messed up summoning in Suna nineteen years ago.

"Send out word to the Kazekage," Emio suddenly ordered. "Give him an exact replica of this message, he should know what is going on on enemy territory as well."

"Yes," all five shinobi chorused together, one already taking out a scroll and pen.

Emio turned to look out the window, staring at the bright blue cloudless sky that stretched on forever. Nothing in it hinted of the danger that was coming, of the suffering people will go through once more, like six years ago when Orochimaru first envaded Konoha and killed the Third Hokage. How the world got so messed up and crazy since then. "We must find information on this secret meeting at the 'usual' place. That might have valuable information for us and might help us better prepare this time around," Emio continued.

"Right," they all replied again.

"It's coming faster than expected. But this time we won't be taken by surprise. The Hokages are being informed by Sakura as we speak. The Kazekage will hear of it soon... I think its time to really start our part of the fight," Emio said, still looking out the window.

Emio was running along the many different colored rooftops of Konoha, letting the wind blow her hair in every direction it possibly can.

'I'm thinking that we should attend Itachi's meeting ourselves,' a voice in my head grumbled, the voice belonging to Kokami.

'No. It's not neccessary. You know how Itachi works better than I remember. But he'll send us a private note just to taunt us and put us on the edge,' Emio replied, in her thgouhts.

'Just a thought. Don't come blaming me if he decides to keep his 'enemies' in the dark this time. Sometimes, you can really be such a damn fool,' Kokami growled back, snorting.

'Okay. I won't come and blame you then,' Emio replied. 'Anyway. I have a hunch at what they're going to be discussing that's so important and valuable. They'd be idiots for not. How many of our techniques do you think they'll manage to unearth? You think they'll find the new blood-line jutsus you just copied? What about my secret technique?'

Kokami laughed. 'Your secret technique? Yeah, think what you want, and it isn't so secret anymore.'

'You didn't answer my question,' Emio said, jumping down in front of the door that lead into her house.

The door stood ajar, not like Emio had left it a few days back. The window of the living room was slightly raised too, to let in the cool wind in. Faint voices came from that room too, one belonging to a female, the other to a male. They both seemed to be complaining about something, but Emio could not make out the words. She sucked in her breath and reached for a kunai without making any noise. Emio etched close to the open door and braced herself to enter with a bang and slaughter any enemies that decided to inhabit her house.

The door creaked open, revealing Emio before she could reveal herself. Someone could be heard raising to their feet quite quickly and sprint to the doorway that opened into the hallway. It was a tall girl with blond hair, from Suna, as her forehead protector around her neck implied.

"It's about time you got back Emio!" she shrieked. "Do you not eat and sleep or something?"

A boy appeared, with a very lazy bored expression printed on his face. He had black hair that was tied up into a ponytail and his hands rested in his pockets. "You turned this simple task into something very troublesome," he said in a lifeless tone, filled with boredom.

Emio put her kunai away quickly, ashamed to have to brought it out, even if these two people who had invaded her house had really been enemies or real invaders. "Temari. Shikimaru. Do you always have to barge into people's homes unannounced?" Emio asked, and they grinned, going back into the living room.
