"The Prologue of Naruto Uzumaki"

O-O-O

"When a person… has something important they want to protect… that's when they can become truly strong."

~ Words spoken by Haku Yuki, of the Yuki Clan, from the Land of Water

O-O-O

Within the quiet, oppressed little town of Wave Country, a new day slowly broke into dawn. The air was crisp, the grass was soft, and the misty morning had left the fields and trees glittering with morning dew. And upon the grassy fields that surrounded the small settlement, a young boy no older than thirteen had found seclusion there to rest, after a rigorous training the lad had the day-before.

The boy was small, shorter than regular children his own age. He had fair tanned skin, short spiky blonde hair that radiated like the sun itself, and – If they were currently open – sparkling blue eyes. He wore an outfit that consisted of an orange tracksuit with blue along the upper shoulder area and waist, as well as orange pants, blue sandals, and a blue forehead protector with a spiralling leaf image engraved upon it, wrapped around his head.

As the young boy slept amongst the calming nature that surrounded him, he was slowly awoken by the gentle nudging on his shoulder. Groaning slightly as sleep left him, and his consciousness being brought back to the waking world…

"If you sleep out here, you'll catch a cold"

The boy's eyes shot open, his blue eyes locking instantly with large, dark-brown eyes that looked down upon him. Sitting up, he was greeted to the sight of a young beauty, having long black hair, pale skin, and wearing a pink sleeveless kimono that went down to the ankles, held together by the white obi tied around the waist.

"Who are you?" the newly awakened boy asked with a tilt of his head.

The black haired beauty before him gave a gentle smile, "My name's Haku. What's yours?"

The boy gave a grin, thumbing him-self on the chest as he did so, "Name's Naruto Uzumaki, nice to meet you, Dattebayo!"

…

… "Naruto…"

… "Naruto!"

… "NARUTO UZUMAKI, WAKE UP!"

With a startled jump in his chair, fifteen year old Naruto Uzumaki awoke from an old – yet not forgotten – memory, to see the scowling face of his school's homeroom teacher, Nami Asaji. She was a woman of a fine beauty of her own, having fair skin and dark brown hair that reached her shoulders. She was wearing a yellow cardigan with a white shirt, a dark blue skirt, and white and grey sneakers with white socks.

Blinking the metaphoric sand from his eyes, Naruto's mind focused back to the here-and-now, finally registering that he had – once again – fallen asleep during class lessons. "Ah, I did it again" he deadpanned, not sounding the least bit ashamed of being caught in the act.

Naruto was an orphan, at least according to the files that were provided, and he had somehow been sponsored to attend the Yodobashi High School from an "unknown party". Though with the blonde's current record and attendance showing that he was a good student, it left both teachers and students stumped on how a teenager as lazy as him, was able to pass all his tests with above-average to high marks. It shouldn't have been possible.

He wore a short-sleeved white t-shirt with an orange spiral-logo imprinted on the front, long dark blue jeans held up with a black leather belt, a pair of white and blue coloured sport shoes, and over his shirt he wore an opened dark-orange and black-stripped jacket. The jacket itself also had a hood. Around his neck he wore the only piece of jewellery he had on, a small green-ish gem which hung loosely around his neck on a thin piece of cord.

Nami Asaji, or "Miss Asaji" as she preferred to be called by her students, stood next to Naruto's desk. Fists on her hips, her eye was twitching as she listened to the first words the blonde student of hers, had said upon awakening, "Glad to see you join the rest of us, Uzumaki-san."

"Hehe, sorry Teach" Naruto rubbed the back of his head, a cheesy smile on his face as he did so. Hearing the giggling and chuckles around him, Naruto turned to see his classmates watching with amusement. Naruto suddenly frowned at all of them in mock-anger, "What, you don't all find Shakespeare boring too? I'm surrounded by weirdoes here" the blonde gave a mock-shiver.

Miss Asaji palmed her face at that, while the class erupted in laughter. "What am I going to do with you Naruto-san?" Miss Asaji muttered into her hand, almost embarrassed at even asking such a question.

Naruto gave her a big foxy-grin, "A pillow and some ramen might be nice…" frowning for a second, as a thought occurred to him, "Actually, forget the pillow. I'll just take the ramen" the grin was back on his face, "Nothing like a warm cup, for when you wake up. Am I right, Teach?" Of course, Naruto was making a reference to her coffee cravings that she usually had for the more stubborn days.

Miss Asaji groaned loudly, while the class' laughing escalated. If there was one thing they enjoyed most when Naruto had entered Yodobashi High School, was that the blonde always had a sense of humour about him that made anyone laugh – except for the victim, of course.

Removing her hand from her face, she pointed towards the door, "Outside Naruto-san, I'll deal with you after-class, along with Takato-san as well."

Standing up from his desk, Naruto looked at his teacher with a puzzled expression, "Takato's outside, why'd that happen?" Takato was one of Naruto's school-mates, and at other times too, a rival when it came to their card-playing hobby. The boy was easy to get along with, and when Naruto had joined Yodobashi High School, Takato was basically the first person to have gone up to the blonde, and extend the "hand of friendship" with him.

Asaji rolled her eyes, "He was late for class again. You know the rules Naruto-san. If show up late…" she began

"… You'll have to wait." Naruto concluded, while rolling his own eyes as he did so. Snapping his feet together, he gave the homeroom teacher a mock military-salute, "Ma'am, yes Ma'am."

"Out!" the teacher yelled, her eye twitching madly as Naruto left the classroom laughing. It also didn't help that this action renewed the class' laughing as well. Walking back to her desk, Miss Asaji fell onto her chair, her hand rubbing her forehead to quell the headache that had arisen. 'Why o' why did I accept him in my classroom. I could have given him to Toshiaki-san. At least then, it would be quieter here…'

O-O-O -Break- O-O-O

Sitting outside of Nami Asaji's classroom, Takato Matsuki was busy scribbling-away in his small notebook, letting his imagination run wild as he drew what looked like a reptilian dinosaur.

The boy had light red eyes, light brown hair, and lightly tanned skin. He wore a blue hooded shirt over a white t-shirt, with long gray shorts, yellow wristbands on his hands, and green converse sneakers. Interesting thing about Takato's outfit is the usual inclusion of yellow goggles that he wears atop his head, though he does not wear them during school times.

"Yeah, that works. Red is definitely a power colour" the young teen muttered, his mind solely focused on his little pet-project as he coloured-in the 'dinosaur' red, "I'll give it the strongest attack ever, no-one would expect that, especially from a Rookie. I'm gonna make him even better than Agumon. I'll call it "Pyro Sphere"."

"Real original there, Takato" a male voice butted-in, interrupting Takato's train of thought.

"Huh…?" looking up, Takato was greeted with the sight of his newest school-mate, Naruto Uzumaki. Blinking owlishly, he looked back and forth at both ends of the hallway they were in, before he pointed his pencil at the blonde, "Naruto? What are you doing out here?"

Shrugging his shoulders, Naruto plopped down onto the floor next to the brown haired teen. "Fell asleep during class again…" crossing his arms behind his head, Naruto leaned back against the wall as he closed his eyes, "Don't know why Teach got all huffy for. It was only Shakespeare…"

Takato merely sweat-dropped at his friend's remark, "… And we all still wonder how you can pass a test" he mumbled under his breath.

"Pure skills, Takato, pure skills…" Naruto remarked, letting him-self sound almost smug-ish in a way. That was the mystery of Naruto Uzumaki. No-matter the test, the blonde always seemed to do above-average on them, even receiving high marks for most of them. Mathematics, History, Language, he passed them all with barely any motivation within the classroom. Teachers and students alike tried and tried again in learning his secret, only to come-up empty-handed.

"Too bad you can't use those skills in keeping yourself awake during my lessons, Naruto-san" Asaji's voice cut in-between Takato's and Naruto's friendly chatting.

Opening a single eye, Naruto gave a cheerful smile to the teacher standing before them, "Yo Teach, came to join the dark-side, we got cookies." Takato chocked a little, trying not to laugh. The joke itself was old, but the timing and delivery for it always seems to make it work. Evident being that the blonde had said it loud enough, so all the students inside the classroom had heard it from the open window between them, and the results came true as laughing ensued.

Asaji's eye twitched once more, trying desperately not to find a reason to strangle her latest headache-maker. It certainly wouldn't be good for the school – or for her-self – in being labelled as a student-murderer. So, ignoring the laughing coming from her classroom, she hastily changed her attention to Takato. It was safer for her sanity anyways, "Well Takato-san, despite your apology, you certainly don't seem very sorry about being late, do you?"

Naruto smirked, watching as Takato stood at attention, and started babbling and stuttering some excuse or another. This only helped in fuelling the laughter happening inside the classroom. Leaning back against the wall, Naruto closed his eyes once-more, "Ladies and Gentleman, the Man of a Thousand Babbles."

Takato snapped his mouth shut, a light blush rising on his cheeks. He and Nami Asaji gave the blonde haired teen a glare, while the class inside just laughed louder. Without looking, Naruto used his right hand to give the glaring pair the peace-sign, "It's good to be the Prince."

O-O-O -Break- O-O-O

"Being the Prince, stinks…" Naruto dejectedly muttered, leaning back against his chair as he kicked a feet up onto his desk.

"Prince of Pranks" was Naruto's unofficial title in Yodobashi High School. Every single teacher and student knew when not to incur the wrath of the prankster prince. The blonde wasn't afraid to strike at anybody, whether they're someone like the Popular Girls, the Jocks or even the Principle him-self. Everybody was a target if given the right motive. What was even more amazing though, was that no-body could prove it was Naruto that had done the deed. Oh, they knew it was him, they just could never find the evidence to pin-it on him. Thus, the "Prince of Pranks" had been born…

One spectacular prank that he had done, was back when he had entered Yodobashi High School for the first time. As a commemoration for entering the school, he had some-how slipped in laxatives into the faculty's morning coffee. For the entire day, a number of classes pretty much had an off-day, as teachers from nearly every year spent most of their time running to the bathroom in a hurry. Luckily for some teachers though - like Nami Asaji – they didn't drink the faculty coffee, thus sparing them from the horrible experience of uncontrollable bathroom-runs. It wasn't until much later, that Naruto was suspected in doing the deed, especially when students began calling him by his unofficial title. But they couldn't prove it.

Since that day, the teachers and faculty of Yodobashi High School had kept an extra eye on Naruto, just waiting to catch him in the act. They also decided from then on to bring their own coffee – or tea if they preferred – from home, not wanting the off-chance of experiencing that horrible day ever again.

As Naruto lounged about, Takato's hands and mind scribbled away in his notebook. The two had been told to stay back in-class, all to write an apology letter to their homeroom teacher, Miss Asaji. Instead of doing the letter though, they were both spending the free-time to themselves. For Takato, it was working on the details of his creation. The boy had even dubbed the strange red-reptilian dinosaur of his, "Guilmon". Strange name, but given who it had came from, no questions left Naruto's lips.

"Maybe you should pass the title onto someone new, Naruto" Takato suggested with a smirk on his face. That smirk was removed quickly however, as his response came in the form of a worn-out eraser hitting him on the head, "… Ow."

"Pass on my title…" Naruto scoffed before he stood from his seat, "Never, I say!" Takato stared wide-eyed as Naruto suddenly pointed towards him accusingly, "You're conspiring with them aren't you!? Blast that Kazu, he's got you roped up against me as well!"

"… No wonder Miss Asaji needed those aspirins for class all the time. Spending just five minutes alone with you, can give anyone a headache" Takato's remark was rewarded with yet another worn-out eraser being flicked to his forehead.

[Giggle]

Hearing giggling, Naruto turned around and came face-to-face with the beady-eyes of a hand-made puppet. It was dark yellow in colour – giving it the appearance of light brown – with a red mouth, pink ears, black button nose, and a pair of dark brown button eyes. Blinking owlishly at the sight, a smile quickly came to Naruto's face "Ah, hello there, Jeri" the blonde greeted happily to the dog-themed hand-puppet.

"R-wello Naruto" the puppet replied back, as its speaker came into view with a large smile of her own. The girl may have been a little weird to most people, but Naruto liked weird. Weird was good, weird was unpredictable and exciting…

Jeri Katou was the girl's full name. She's a young girl with brown eyes and shoulder-length brown hair, worn in a ponytail on the left side that was held by a green hairclip. She is most commonly seen wearing a yellow shirt under a green dress, and white and cerulean sneakers with yellow socks.

Much like Takato, Jeri was someone who instantly wanted to be friends with Naruto. Something no-one has been able to figure out why, as of yet. And given her unique and perky personality, Naruto could hardly deny the girl's olive-branch of friendship.

Naruto gave a knowing smirk, watching as Jeri moved away from the blonde, and towards her desk which was located in the middle of the classroom. "Forgot your flute again, Jeri?" the whiskered-teen asked of her.

"Yep-yep" Jeri's peppered reply came back instantly. Rummaging through her desk, her hands clasped around her objective, "Ah, there you are…" Pulling the item out, revealed that Naruto's guess was indeed correct, as Jeri pulled out a light-brown bag that held her flute safely inside.

Naruto and Takato shared a mildly concerned glance with one another, as when Jeri had pulled out her flute, she began scolding it. Even weirder was when she started using her dog-themed hand-puppet along in her scolding. Despite Naruto's like of the "weird", there was such a limit to that level for one person to take…

"Sometimes I worry about her, Naruto"

"Just smile and nod, Takato, just smile and nod…"

"Bye-bye guys" Jeri merrily skipped out of the classroom. Her dog-puppet made a return visit though, as it was sticked back inside the room, "And don't forget to write those apologies now, Ruff-Ruff" skipping away, Jeri made her way downstairs giggling happily.

"Naruto…?"

"Just smile and nod, Takato…"

West Shinjuku, Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building

Within a room that was kept hidden from the public eye, a man sat in silence as he was lost in his thoughts. He was rather tall, wore a black-suit with a rich-purple coloured waist-length tie, and a dark coloured shirt. He also had a professionally-trimmed blonde hair-style, and thick black tinted glasses. A metallic lighter could also be seen within the man's hand, as his hand absentmindedly flicked the lid of the lighter open and closed repeatedly.

[Click]… [Click]… [Click]…

The man's name was Yamaki Mitsuo, leader of a covert organization called Hypnos. The agency itself was purposed – originally – with monitoring the electronic communications of half the Earth as a SIGINTsystem for the Japanese government. And as a result of the legal issues of violating privacy, the organisation was kept secret from the public. But after a certain discovery though, Hypnos' original purpose changed to counter-act this discovery.

[Click]… [Click]… [Click]…

The steady clicking of the lighter echoed within the dome-like room, yet not one of the other people within seem to protest about it. Whether by shear focus on their work, or fear of the man, it was unclear. The room itself was filled with computers, monitors, and technological marvels that seemed beyond what the world outside has thus far seen in terms of progress, and behind each of these wonders of technology sat an operative under Yamaki's employment.

Flicking the lighter in his hand for the final time closed, Yamaki looked up towards two of his leading operatives. The two operatives were both women, each one wearing a uniformed jumpsuit designed to protect them from any static-malfunction that may occur, and a visor-like head-wear that was connected to the building's main computer system through their elevated station.

The station itself was a back-to-back seat that held the pair up into the centre of the room, allowing them both to monitor the entirety of the room with ease. Their only key to accessing the system in which it was connected to, were the keyboards attached to their respective seats.

Yamaki looked towards his Chief Operator, Riley Ootori. The woman her-self was hard to distinguish when compared to her partner – Tally Onodera – as both were wearing the same uniformed jumpsuit and visors. The only distinguishing features seen were their hair. While Tally had short blonde hair that framed her face, Riley had long red with two strips seen hanging on her front.

"Report" Yamaki ordered. The pair of female operatives had been monitoring the city's increase in electronic activity since this morning, with very little to report back then. He was hoping that with this latest increase, something could be discovered.

Without missing a single keystroke, Riley responded as she kept her focus on her work, "I'm picking up an abnormal germination energy pattern, sir." If anyone else could view what she was seeing, they'd know she was getting information displayed to her via the visors she wore.

"Is it a wild-one?" Yamaki asked. Wild-One was a reference to their agency's discovery. It was the sole reason why Hypnos' purpose changed, and to them it was also considered a threat to the safety of Shinjuku. A momentary thought crossed the man's mind, "… Is it also the cause of this storm?" Having seen the coming storm this afternoon, Yamaki knew it wasn't normal simply by glance.

"I can't tell yet…" Riley reported back, slightly disappointed at her own limitations. Unseen to others, Riley was viewing digital readings through her visor that changed to display the energy readings she was receiving in regards to the oncoming storm, "All I can report back sir, is that the energy levels are increasing at an exponential rate. I have never seen anything like it, and it is corresponding with the storm as well…" Riley bit her lip at this point, hesitant in what she had to say next, "We're… we're unable to track it, sir."

Yamaki frowned. It was just like this morning before. Something had been detected, but neither their numerous programs nor their equipments could track or identify it. It was almost like whatever it was, happened to be beyond what their systems could handle. Was it being protected… or was it simply too powerful to destroy? Too many questions, not enough answers…

"… Very well" Standing from his seat, Yamaki made his leave. "Keep monitoring the systems. If anything changes or turns-up, contact me immediately" the Boss of Hypnos ordered before leaving the room.

"Sir!" both Riley and Tally responded, never having broken their concentration, as each one continued working on their keyboards. They weren't going to fail their boss this time.

O-O-O -Break- O-O-O

West Shinjuku, City Streets

Walking down the empty streets of Shinjuku City, a sigh escaped the lips of the blonde-headed Uzumaki teenager. Having finally been released from captivity that was Nami Asaji's punishment, Naruto gave a quick "good-bye" to his school mate Takato, before heading back to home. Normally Naruto would have spent some after-school time with his friends, but considering that today was Friday, he just wanted to get home for the weekend rush he knew would be coming.

"Damn it…" gripping onto his jacket's hood tightly over his head, Naruto glared up towards the storm that had enveloped the skies of Shinjuku. The winds were getting harsher as time passed-on, forcing the city's people to seek refuge back at their own homes, and Naruto knew that tonight was going to be one hell of a storm. Of course, he also knew that this storm wasn't natural either.

Sighing tiredly, the blonde continued his way back home. Occasionally he would glance up towards the skies, listening as the sounds of thunder went-off. '… Guess we have some work to do tonight' Naruto thought, slightly irritated that his day-off was going to end sooner than he had hoped.

What many people didn't know about the young Uzumaki; was that he wasn't just an everyday normal citizen of Shinjuku City. He was in-fact a rather unique individual, someone who helped protect the city from a force that stayed hidden from public eyes. Of course such actions do come with their own consequences, as his life fell under constant-danger due to his involvement and role in all things. More than one occasion, Naruto was eternally grateful that he didn't have to protect Shinjuku City alone.

The life that Naruto Uzumaki made for him-self within Shinjuku isn't entirely ideal for someone so young, yet it was far better than the life he used to live before coming to the city. Many of Naruto's past is kept hidden, more-so that anyone relatively close to the blonde enigma knew nothing other than his name, age, likes and dislikes, hobbies and dreams. They knew nothing of his past, where he had come from, or if he had any relatives or family members.

In all truth to the matter, Naruto Uzumaki's life began as soon as he stepped within Shinjuku City…

[Ringtone – "Can't Fight the Moonlight" by "LeAnn Rimes" – Start at 0:41]

Naruto's eye twitched at the familiar ringtone. It was a customized one, a function that helped warn him of incoming calls from specific individuals contacting him. Reaching into the inside of his jacket, Naruto pulled out a small silver-coloured thin, hand sized cell-phone. It was a product from the Apple Inc, the Iphone. To be specific, it was the latest generation Iphone that had recently been released from the company.

Looking at the caller ID just to be sure, he sighed with a noticeable slump of his shoulders in resignation. Pressing the screen, Naruto held the device to his ear, "Yes Ero-chan?"

A clear feminine voice chuckled ominously over the phone, "Fufufufu, Naruto-tan, how rude of you. You know I'm not perverted, just… curious, fufufufu"

"Right…" Naruto drawled, not believing the female over the phone for a second, "… and what about all those camera's you have around the inn?" he accused.

"Why, for security purposes of-course" the voice replied confidently.

Raising a brow at the answer, "Uh-huh, and the cameras in the bathrooms…?" the blonde questioned her bluntly.

"… Research?" she asked hopefully after a few seconds of silence, and even trying to sound innocent on-top of it.

Sighing, Naruto pinched his nose to stave-off the coming headache, "… Did you need something from me, Ero-chan?"

You could almost picture the woman over the phone pouting, "Mou~ it almost sounds like you don't like me anymore Naruto-tan. [Sniff-Sniff]… How mean. And here I am, calling you to deliver a message from our scary Land Lady."

"Did something happen?" Naruto asked, as his irritation and resignation left him, only to be replaced with worry. Naruto lived at an Inn that was located nearby Shinjuku's Central Park. It was one of the few places within the city he could find a place to live – given his situation – and even fewer that knew when to keep secrets. Given that the occupants of the Inn themselves had secrets of their own.

"Oh! Now you want to talk with Matsu. [Sniff]… How rude…" Naruto's eye twitched, while a low growl made its way up his throat. "Alright, alright… Mm~ I like it when you get aggressive. I called to let you know that Doru-kun left a little while ago. This storm got him more agitated than usual."

"I see…" Naruto wasn't too surprised. Doru – as he likes being called – happened to be a very close friend of Naruto's, as well as his partner in his endeavours in protecting the city. He was also the reason why Naruto chose his current place of residence, as Doru wasn't… ordinary, which made the Inn perfect. The occupants that lived there were surprised at first – of course – but other than that, they agreed to keep Doru's existence secret. "Anything else I should know?" he asked Matsu.

"Just be careful, Naruto" hearing the lack honorific used at the end of his name, instead of the childish "tan" that Matsu uses, Naruto knew she was serious. "Doru was seriously jumpy as the storm came rolling in. And that only happened once before, remember?" her voice faint, obviously remembering the incident.

Naruto winced, his left hand moving towards his right shoulder blade, phantom pain coursing through him as he did remember. Doru had been jumpy one evening, and when they found the source, they were ill prepared, and caught off-guard. It was a stupid mistake on his part, and it was only thanks to his unique skills that helped avoid anything serious.

"I'll be careful, Matsu. Don't worry, I won't make the same mistake again twice-in-a-row" Naruto reassured the woman. In the small time he had arrived at Shinjuku, and having found a place to call home, he grew attached to the people that came into his life.

A sigh could be heard over the phone, "Alright then… Be sure to record what you find, and stay out of anything serious Naruto. I'll be sure to keep the suits as busy as possible."

Naruto raised a brow, "Have they been causing trouble?"

"Nah…" Matsu scoffed, "Same thing as always, Detection and Tracking. I kept their programs busy and off the trials, though I still haven't found the cause of this morning's bio-merging. You haven't seen anything strange today, have you?"

"Nothing yet, but will have an eye out for anything. Keep me updated on this one though. For some reason…" a crack of thunder echoed above, making Naruto gaze at the dry thunderstorm brewing, "… I don't think it's like the others."

"Understood" Matsu stated, before erupting in a perverted giggling-fit, "Be sure to come back home soon. Matsu-chan wants to… experiment with Naruto-tan, fufufufu" and with that, the line cut-off.

Looking at the phone, Naruto merely shook his head with a small smile, "Even though she knows she can't capture me, she still tries to…" putting the Iphone away, Naruto reached further into his jacket and retrieved a second device from inside. This one however, was completely different from any form of technology seen within Shinjuku.

What he took out, was a device no bigger than the palm of his hand. It had a greyish-white plastic body casing, with a small square screen that had an orange coloured border circling around it. There was a small red button on the left side of the border just below the screen, along with two more orange-coloured buttons a little lower – one on the left, and one on the right, of a small circular designed pattern. On the side of the device, there was a small opening that seemed to be able to fit something through it... or maybe to swipe through it? Attached to the top of the device was an orange strap with a metal hook, the hook itself looked to be able to attach on a belt by the looks of it.

Clicking on a button, Naruto didn't even react as a circular holographic projection expanded from the screen. Several more button-pressing later, and a translucent over-head map of Shinjuku City appeared on the screen, with two blinking dots. One dot was blue-coloured and motionless, while the other was red-coloured and in motion.

Without a word, Naruto made his way to where the red-dot was located, the blue-dot now in motion.

O-O-O -Break- O-O-O

Sitting within a room alone, a cell-phone was placed down besides a sitting woman, silhouetted by the darkness around her. Surrounding this woman, dozens of screens lit up the room, providing the only source of light within the darkened space.

She was literally surrounded by screens of different sizes in her small four-walled room, and her only furniture seen were two futons she was currently sitting on, and two desks that held up four screens, along with a number of computer towers that were obviously connected to every single one of the screens around her. Surrounded by the darkness, the illumination provided reflected off the woman's large glasses, giving her a rather intimidating and ghostly appearance.

"Fufufufu…" giggling ominously, the woman pushed the glasses up the frame of her nose, and gently tucked a strand of her long red-hair behind her ear, "Time to have some fun with Yamaki and his girl-scouts" moving up towards one of the two desks, she pulled out a keyboard. Cracking her knuckles, she readied her hands over it, "Nobody messes with my Naruto-tan. Let's see what you ladies got!" and with a speed unseen from any computer expert, her hands blurred through the keys, as her eyes stayed on the screens with rapid attention.

The woman – Matsu – knew her strengths and weaknesses, and since she was safely hidden away from society inside her home, she could provide support through her expertise. An expertise, in which led to her having to hide from society.

'Fufufufu, you ladies are good…' The screen in-front of her beeped a couple of times, before the logo for Hypnos popped up. Across her room, the computer screens brought up every bit of information that she had connected with, '… but I'm better.' Pushing her glasses up, she gave a devious smile, 'Time for some fun, fufufufu'
