The Village of Ukisima:

Land of The White Dragon

It has been three months since the Chunnin Exams ended. All of Squad 7 passed. A normal day in the Village of Konoha. Sakura went off to her work as an apprentice nurse. While, squad 7 was at their usual schedule. Sasuke being the first to arrive, and Senshei right behind him at the same time Naruto walked with her. They waited half an our in the hot sun, as usual for their late teacher to arrive soon. But something different happened. Senshei felt something inside her. It made her twitch a little, and she barely fell into the waterfall, Sasuke saved her.

"Oi Senshei-chan, are you okay? That the third time today you've been destracted! Uh..." Senshei flinched at Naruto's sentence. Naruto had been secretly following her ever since the Chunnin Exams ended. Sasuke payed more attention to Senshei too. After her nearend life situation at the Chunnin Exams, she's been having some sort of amnesia.

"And how did you know that, Naruto?" Sasuke said as he switched looks with Senshei. Senshei remained quiet and looked up at the sky.

She remembered part of the dreams she's been having for the past few days. It had been unclear to her. A bright green dragon soaring through the morning sky,and Senshei was sitting on it's back. The two looked happy together. But then, the sky grew dark and furious. Thunder roar and a strong wind blew her off the dragon. The two suddenly fell. As the dragon fell, it started to change. It turned into a round odd shaped object. And the object fell into a huge body of water. But before she could finish the dream, she saw her medallion floating gently onto her neck. But then she felt something move behind her. And the last thing she saw, were two blood red eyes staring right at her, in the darkness of the night.

Sasuke and Naruto were still busy fighting that they never realized that Senshei had also spaced out. And way too busy to realize that their sensei had already arrived.

"Well I'm just watching over someone I care about unlike you! You're always acting all cool and all that crap!" Sasuke, still looking his usual self, interrupted Naruto. "This team would be better off without you, dobe. You can't just go around stalking people! It's just, not natural. Especially since she's your own teammate..."

"Hey, what time is it?" Sasuke looked at the beating sun and answered, "I'd guess about three o'nine. Kakashi-

"Hey." The two boys looked at were the sound came from. But instead of Kakashi, a kunai apeared headed straight for Senshei.

Senshei snapped out of her transe, "Huh?" she heard something coming her way. The kunai. She reached to catch it but she barely made it. SLASH. A cut formed in her palm. All was silent. Senshei's always caught it without a sweat. It was a sort of routine they'd coungered up, just test her Byakugan. But now, it was the first time that she'd missed, barely.

It was a bright sunny day, all was silent. Their teacher had arrived. Before their mission began, Senshei bandaged her palms to cover the deep cut the kunai made on her fingers and palm. Her two teammates and teacher didn't pay that much attention to the mission. At the end, Squad 7 was assigned an A rank mission.

"The mission is to be a bodyguard for a certain person." but the whole team didn't seem to care. That was when Naruto mentioned something. "Oi, Kakashi-sensei. If it's just a bodyguard thing, how come it's an A rank mission? Is there a catch?"

Kakashi eyed the three. "It's no ordinary mission. The person is royal. You will meet her at the Ukisima Village. There they shall explain to you what your severice shall be. And..."

Their teacher walked over to the bandaged girl. He looked down to her and said, "Senshei..." The girl looked up at Kakashi. She was sitting down you leg up. "...you will have to be the princess replacement."

The three looked at Kakashi. Glaring surpirisingly at thier sensei. But he then disappeared into the midst of the Autmn Breeze. It was now six o'clock. The sun was still up in the sky. Naruto and Sasuke were headed home, when Naruto noticed something.

"Hey Sasuke. Doesn't Senshei live in the Hyuuga Mansion? Isn't that behind where you live?" and at that moment Sasuke turned around. Senshei was headed the other direction. It was unusual for her to be headed to the other side of the village. So he had the urge to ask.

"OI Senshei-chan-eh. Senshei! OI!" Senshei paused but didn't bother to turn around. "Eh, S-Sasuke-sama? Naruto-kun?" as soon as Sasuke heard her stutter, he became concerned to the mission tomorrow. Naruto was the first to speak, "Don't you live next door to Sasuke? Where are you going?"

"I-I'm going to...t-to get ramen. The Ichiraiku Noodle Shop!" Naruto loved that place. He couldn't help but ask. "Hey. Maybe I can come too? You know. On a date?"

"Uh...Gomen, Naruto-kun. Maybe some other time. Yea...w-well sayonara!" and she was gone.

"She's lying. The Ichiraiku Noodle Shop is on the other side of town. I know it." Naruto looked at Sasuke. "Maybe she found a shortcut?"

Meanwhile...

Senshei dashed on top of branches of trees. She kept wondering why she keeps on having these dreams. And why the name of the mission destination was so farmiliar. She started looking up books on the Uikisima Village. One book said that it was located in the Country of Earth. But that was mainly it. So, she started looking up stuff on the computer. But after a while, she found something. A book code. "There it is." and after that last comment, she printed it.

An hour passed, but she continued to look for that book. She had gotten board just looking for that thing. So, she started ladder surfing. Riding the wheeling wooden object searching. It had gotten most of the people's attention. And cuaght the eye's of some farmiliar people... Rock Lee eyed Senshei as she continuessly surfed the books.

"Whoa, is that Senshei? She looks so different. Hm. I guess that's what happens to a genin when she passes the Chunnin Exam. I guess I'll have to work harder at this. But, at least I have a two true friends I can depend on," Kiba walked over to Kaia and Daichi. She was sound asleep on Daichi's back She looked so peaceful and angel-like. But then he snapped out of it before he was caught staring at her.

It has been six hours since the library closed. Senshei lay sound asleep behind a pile of books. But there, in her arms, lay a green book with a white dragon binding itself around it like a snake. And there, on the center right, was an emerald lock. But it was no ordinary lock. It had no keyhole. Instead, it had to side which made it seem like something had to be put in it. Something flate and round. Senshei noticed that there were some words engraved on the lock:

"Ea th wa er fi e ai ou ed to ethe our ak a o re bi wi my s iri an ive e a ream he ne at I sk an ad enture up eme."

It was a new day. Squad 7 met at the Hokage Headquarters. Everyone but Senshei was there. Even Kakashi beat her to the meeting place. Sasuke and Naruto wondered what happened to her. Naruto blurted out, "Kakashi-sensei, is Senshei sick or something? I mean, she's not here. Do you know were she is?" Kakashi looked normal as usual.

"No Naruto, she's not sick. She-" and an interruption came from the door entrance. It was Tsunade's apprentice, Sakura. And it looked like someone was behind her. "Excuse me Tsunade-sama. It's a message from King Ukisima. They need the-Princess, right away,"Sakura winked at the two boys. Naruto and Sasuke looked confused. Then they heard the name of their fellow teammate. This they had to hear.

"Oh. And so, for our plan, Senshei Hyuuga has arrived. Exuse us, but we had to get her ready. They found her laying in the library. She will be here shortly." and that was all the assistant had to say. Tsunade her a bump at the door. She assumed that Sakura fell. But then she heard a whisper.

"Ahem. You may enter. We've been waiting for you Princess Sen. Your two escorts are here." Naruto looked at the person entering the door. And to his amazement it was Senshei Hyuuga. But instead of her own battle gear and fighting costume, she wore a green silk kimono with a golden dragon binding around her. Her hair was made long, by a jutsu, and it reminded him of when they first met when they were little. Sasuke always kept her ribbon with him. And when Senshei's eyes looked his way he turned away, and went red. Naruto stared at Senshei with his gleaming eyes.

"Waa, Senshei-chan. You look so beautiful. Right Sasuke?" and nudges Sasuke with his elbow. Sasuke returned to his normal state and turned away. "Yea whatever." Tsunade turned to face Senshei and reached out to grab her hand. Senshei quietly observed the Hokage's hand gestures, and she quietly understood.

"You know what to do then, Princess Senshei. This is your coordinate. You must take her place until she returns. The say that you are the exact mini double of this Princess Yume." Naruto's eyes narrowed down towards the Hokage.

"But why do we have to pose as tourists anyways? I mean isn't the country that we're visiting an ally?"

And after the Hokages last few words, Naruto and Sasuke escorted the princess, out of the building.

The Ukisima Village...
