Author's note: I do not own any of these characters except Eirwen(this used to be Tani), Raiden, and Shin. I do not own the show; Naruto.
Oh, but how I wish I did! Please be nice, it's my first fic!
Ok, now on with the story. (sigh)
Chapter 1
It was late in the night as the shadows danced across the Leaf village in the moonlight. It had been just another day with his team, another day of training. But something didn't feel right that day; Kakashi felt a strangely familiar warmth at his side, so familiar that he couldn't put his finger on it. He knew that Sasuke and Sakura had suspected something wrong, but not Naruto. He was too lost in his own world to think about his teacher.
Something is here; he knew that, but who this something is, is what's bothering him. The thing, as he would call it now, has a tremendous amount of chakra emitting from it. Even more than he has, which crosses off attacking. Maybe if he just lay there in bed it will leave him alone. He didn't know anything about it, maybe it's harmless. Maybe. He couldn't take any chances with an unknown enemy.

For the rest of the night, Kakashi lay in bed pretending to be asleep while the figure in the shadows watched without even blinking an eye. She knew he was faking, it was easy to see. His chakra was restricted; it didn't flow as easily through the body as it would if he were asleep. As dawn approached, the shadows were receding, and so did she. Every inch that the shadows retracted, she sunk her self deeper into the wall. If she separated her molecules too fast, she would automatically kill herself. In one way, you could use it as a suicide tactic. But that wasn't part of her mission and she needed to deliver the message.
As the last rays of sunlight demolished the remaining shadows, she dispersed herself into the wall.

"Where is he? He should be here by now! Why is Kakashi-sensei always late!!" growled a frustrated Naruto.
"I'm sure he'll be here soon. He may be late, but he never misses a training session." Sakura calmly stated, casting a worried glance at Sasuke.
Sure enough, Kakashi-sensei appeared right in front of Naruto, scaring him out of his skin. His hair was disheveled, as was his clothes. His eyes were dull and his movements were sluggish.
"What are you trying to do? First you're late and then you almost scare me—"
Naruto never got to finish his sentence as his sensei's eyes rolled back and almost toppled the young ninja.

Kakashi woke up to the smell of – well, there really wasn't a specific smell in the room. He knew where he was, it was the hospital. From the sun shining through the windows, it looked to be somewhere in the afternoon.
'Oops. I guess I missed training today.' An amused Kakashi thought.
The door to his room slowly opened, as if someone was deciding whether or not to come in. Suddenly, the door slammed shut and sounds of a struggle reached his ears.
A nurse ran in, along with Iruka, Gai, and the Hokage. Hurriedly they all grabbed Kakashi and hoisted him out of the window to a stretcher.
Once they were out of the building and carried Kakashi to the Hokage's office, Iruka turned to him and explained.
"I'm sorry Kakashi, but we had to get you out of there. There was an intruder who was suspected of wanting to kill you. We did get a name, but he—he—" Iruka's eyes seemed to be searching for the right words.
Gai beat him to it. "We had tied him up; checked on you, then we turned back around and there was only a shadow. It was something we've never seen before. We felt very cold after that incident, like he was still there, watching us."
"I think you should stay here for the night Kakashi, you're too weak to stand up against an attack alone." The Hokage suggested. Or from the look in his eyes, more like an order.
'Only a shadow was left, huh? Well, seems this intruder was the same thing that kept me up all of last night.' Before they could explain anything more, Kakashi closed his eyes to a restless sleep.
