One day, Squad 18 was in a special training ground. They were on a netted trampoline and the 'mission' was to dodge the balls that were rolling around. If one of them were to be touched, they were shocked with a small volt of electricity and the person who was out on the side lines would take your place, since only 3 can train at one time.

"Oh shit!" Kayame cried out as she barely dodges the largest ball.

"Let's do Kekkei Genkai mode!" Hunuka suggested.

"Yeah!" Nakata agreed, even though he was the one out on the sidelines.

"Sharigan!" Gotsumaru activated his Sharigan, causing his eyes to turn red.

Everyone looked at Kayame, who had yet to activate her Kekkei Genkai. She whispered to her brother:

"Nii-chan…I'm using too much chakra keeping my speed up…and keeping back the mark," she explained.

"I'm sorry Kayame," he replied quietly. "But it's the rules…"

She nods slowly, but activated her Sharigan anyways.

"Huh?" Gotsumaru stops suddenly, looking at Kayame. He then realizes how low his sister's chakra level really is. He watched as she has breathing heavily and her reaction time was slow. Damn…how am I supposed to help her before she runs out?!

"Nii-chan!" Kayame cried out, breaking Gotsumaru's train of thought. Suddenly, he felt someone push him onto the floor of the trampoline. He looked up to see Kayame being shocked in his place. She fell to her hands and knees.

"Alright! I'm in!" Nakata grinned as he jumped onto the trampoline.

Damn…I…I can't move… Kayame thought, breathing heavily. "Nii-chan…"

"What are those black marks on your arm, Kayame?" Hunuka asked as he stared at her right arm.

Gotsumaru gritted his teeth as he realized her curse mark has been activated. However, Kayame was too weak, so she blacked out. "Damn it!" he slammed his fist into the wall.

"I'll get Tsunade!" Hunuka suggested.

"W—" Gotsumaru began. But before he had a chance to argue, Hunuka ran off. I highly doubt she'll come to Hunuka…

"She shooed me away…" Hunuka said as he returned a few minutes later.

"Just…leave her alone. She'll be alright," Gotsumaru said.

"Are you sure?" Nakata asked, not quite sure about what just happened.

"Just wait a few minutes. You'll see…" Gotsumaru reassured everyone.

Not even five minutes later, the marks on Kayame's arms disappeared and she began to wake up. She opened her eyes to see herself surrounded by her team. Gotsumaru helped her up.

"My head…is killing me…" she complained.

"Let's take a break and meet back here tomorrow," Gotsumaru suggested. "Give everyone some time to rest."

"Alright…" Hunuka agreed, quite disappointed.

They all went back to the 'apartment' they all live in. Nakata lived on the top floor. Hunuka lived in a small hut on the roof. Kayame and Gotsumaru lived a floor under Nakata.

"I'm going to change and go to bed early…" Kayame told her brother, dragging her feet as she walked.

"Okay," he nodded. "I need to go speak with Tsunade. I'll be home after awhile."

The siblings part ways. Kayame goes to her room and changes into her usual sleepwear which consisted of shorts and a tank top covered in her clan's symbol. She yawns and as she lies in her bed, reaching over to a stuffed orange cat and squeezing it.

"You're so soft…" she whispers as she relaxes.

Meanwhile, Nakata was having a conversation with Hunuka in his hut while Gotsumaru was talking to Tsunade.

"Just watch her carefully…" Tsunade suggested.

"But she's the one who pushed me!" Gotsumaru explained. "It's just training!"

"Yes, but what if it was a real enemy?" Tsunade asked.

"I—" Gotsumaru began.

"Exactly," she interrupted. "You should be grateful your younger sister is willing to risk her life for yours. Not many will do that. Not even in training. Do you understand?"

"Yes, Lady Tsunade…"

The next morning, Kayame and Nakata were running late for training. Nakata was ready to go, so he ran downstairs to get Kayame. He burst into her room without so much of a knock.

"C'mon Kayame we're l—" he began but stopped. Kayame turned around. All she was wearing was her undergarments. "Uh…"

Kayame screamed. Loud enough to be heard across the village. She started throwing pillows and anything else she could get her hands on at him. Nakata dodged them all but ended up next to Kayame.

"Oh shit…" he said. A slap was heard from afar. "Ow…"

About a half an hour later, they walked up to the other two. Kayame walked a good 6 feet in front of Nakata, obviously upset. Hunuka was laughing.

"What's with the red mark on your face?" he asked, laughing harder.

"Don't ask…" Nakata replied with a straight face.

"Let's just get started," Kayame demanded sourly.
