—Flashback, twelve to thirteen years ago—

Tsunade had called five of her strongest and most powerful jonins—Mitsuki Nakashima, Sasuke Uchiha, Naruto Uzumaki, Reagan Higurashi and Suigetsu Hozuki being the jonin she had summoned. The five arrived around roughly the same time. Reagan and Naruto and Sasuke walked in altogether; the two hyperactive blonde childhood friends laughed and talked happily, while the Uchiha was silent—other than his famous 'Hn's he gave when either of his hyperactive childhood friends said something to him.

"Here comes the trio, Tsunade-Sama," Shizune said to the Hokage.

Tsunade looked at Shizune. "Yeah, I know, I hear the hyperactive blondes approaching," she said.

The door of Tsunade's office opened as Reagan had kicked the door open. "Hai?! Whaddya need Tsunade-baa-chan?!" Her and Naruto said simultaneously. Sasuke remained silent.

"Did you HAVE to kick the door open, Reagan?!" Tsunade fussed.

Reagan smiled sheepishly. "Hai! I did! It made for an uber cool entrance for the three of us! For the Uchiha-Higurashi-Uzumaki's Sasu-Rea-Naru trio," she exclaimed as she punched the air hyperactively.

"That's right, believe it Tsunade-baa-chan! We're the Sasu-Rea-Naru trio!" Naruto said as he wrapped his arms around Reagan and Sasuke's necks and pulled the two in.

"Well put, Naru-chin," Reagan yelled as she nuzzled her cheek against the whiskered one of Naruto's.

"Hai, hai! I know, Rea-Chama!" Naruto yelled as he nuzzled Reagan's cheek back.

"Why do I hang out with the two of you?" An annoyed Sasuke said.

"BECAUSE you love us, that's why. We're childhood friends, you're supposed to be able to tolerate and love us, Sasuke-teme/Sasu," the two blondes said again simultaneously. Sasuke rolled his eyes at them yet couldn't help but smile at the hyperactive blondes that he called his childhood friends, Reagan Higurashi and Naruto Uzumaki.

"So… why do you need Naru-chin, Sasu and myself Baa-chan?" Reagan asked.

Tsunade looked at her then spoke, "I am sending the three of you, plus two others, on a mission. I trust the five of yo—"

"Is Itachin gonna be one of the other two?!" Reagan yelled hyperactively.

Tsunade sighed. "No, Itachi will not be going on this mission. He is out on another mission, Reagan, have you forgotten? You three will be introduced to the other jonin when they get here. Though, I'm sure the three of you have already met and know these two jonin quite well," she said as she sat back down in her seat.

Reagan and Naruto gasped, "We know the other two jonin that you've summoned, Tsunade-baa-chan?" Meanwhile, Sasuke grunted an uninterested grunt.

Tsunade looked at Reagan and Naruto. "Yes. The three of you know these two. Whether you like them or not, you three know them," she said. The Hokage's pupil, Shizune, heard the other two jonin as they walked down the hall, she opened her mouth to speak but Tsunade silenced her. "… I know, Shizune. I can hear."

The two 'unknown' ninja opened the door; Tsunade was right, Reagan, Naruto and Sasuke all three knew the two ninja that were in the door. "Mitsuki Nakashima, reporting, Tsunade-Sama," Mitsuki said before she bowed respectfully to Tsunade. Sasuke, however, glared at the grayish-blonde ninja Mitsuki.

"Suigetsu Hozuki… reporting madam Tsunade," the shark-toothed, white haired, purple-eyed man snubbed and mocked the Hokage. That, in turn, made Tsunade glare harshly at Suigetsu. Reagan, on the other hand, was filled with immense joy and hyperactivity upon seeing Mitsuki and Suigetsu.

"Mitsuki-chan~! Getsu~!" She exclaimed joyously at the two ninja, waving and flailing over excitedly.

Naruto ran to Mitsuki and hugged her tightly. "Hey Mitsuki-chin! I didn't think Tsunade-baa-chan would send us on the same mission. Especially when we're technically brother and sister," he said happily.

Tsunade stood back up. "Now. With my strongest and most powerful jonin I deem will be able to carry out this mission gathered here; I will now give you all the mission and its specifics," she said as she slapped the mission briefing on the top of her desk.

"Hai," all five jonin said in unison.

"Alright. This is an S-ranked mission. Therefore, I am sending five of my highest ranking jonin which consists Naruto Uzumaki, Reagan Higurashi, Sasuke Uchiha, Mitsuki Nakashima and Suigetsu Hozuki on this specific mission. The mission will be acquiring intellect from a rouge village of ninja near the border of Kirigakure. You five are to infiltrate the village, posing as rouge ninja who are on the run from Konoha's ANBU. We will send a fake ANBU team after the five of you after about two or three days once you five depart. The five of you are to rendezvous with the fake ANBU team, after you have found the rouge village and make it look like you all got into a fight with the fake ANBU team. You are to make the rouge village trust you, spend a few days gathering intel then report back to the fake ANBU team and they will relay the information you all have acquired back me. The purpose of this mission is to uncover the rouge village's plans… the Mizukage of Kirigakure suspects that the rouge village is planning to murder her. Mei Termuī had sent us this mission because she trusts Konoha with this mission. Anyways, once you five become aware if the rouge ninja are plotting to murder the Mizukage… you five are to act immediantly if the rouge ninja make a move signaling that they are about to launch an attack on Kirigakure, understood? This mission will take four to six months, minimum… it could take longer or it couldn't take very long, it all depends on the time it takes for you five to gain the trust of the rouge village. While you all are in disguise as rouges, make sure not to do anything that the village of rouge ninja could possibly look at and deem as suspicious. Reagan, Naruto… you two can still be yourselves, but just tone yourselves down a bit; else, the two of you could give the mission away. Mitsuki, make sure Naruto doesn't give the mission away and when he is with Reagan, please keep an eye on her. Sasuke, keep an eye on Reagan and make sure she acts like her calmer side and when she is around Naruto, make sure they don't give the mission away. Suigetsu… be yourself… since you're a former rouge ninja anyways…" Tsunade stopped to breathe. "… Now all of you have been briefed, go pack your supplies. Just pack the essentials you usually take on missions that are going to last several months. You five shall leave tonight around 6:00 pm sharp. By the way, Mitsuki Nakashima and Sasuke Uchiha will be the leaders of this mission, the remainder of the squad is to listen to Mitsuki and Sasuke's orders," Tsunade finished the mission briefing.

All five of the ninjas stood at attention. "Hai, Tsunade/Tsunade-Sama/Tsunade-baa-chan," they all said as they all disappeared to their houses to pack.


With Reagan, Naruto and Sasuke—

"This is an important mission, you excited Naru-chin? How about you, Sasu?" Reagan said seriously yet light-heartedly.

"We'll be gone for months Rea-Chama! I won't be able to see Hinata-chan for MONTHS! I'm gonna die!" Naruto wailed childishly.

Reagan holds her chest and gasped sadly. "But, you're gonna be with me and Sasu and Mitsuki-chan! Don't I just feel loved, Naru-chin! You'd rather hang with Hinata-chan than to hang with me your partner-in-crime, amazingly awesome, smexy, equally as hyperactive, blonde childhood friend! And more than being with Sasu… but… meh," Reagan teased her partner-in-crime.

"Tha-that's not what I meant, Rea-Chama…! You won't get to see Itachi for months either! So HA!" Naruto stammered but came back strong. Hitting Reagan where he knew she would feel just like him when he wouldn't be able to see Hinata for several months.

"Holy sweet mother of Kakashi-sensei… NARU-CHIN! You're right! Oi… no Itachin for several months… no!" Reagan whined, knowing she would now dream of Itachi the whole freaking mission… "I don't wanna go now!" she yelled as she turned around to go demand that Tsunade take her off that mission, but Naruto grabbed her turquoise shirt and that stopped her in her tracks.

"Nope! Rea-Chama… if I miss Hinata-chan for several months, you miss Itachi for several months!" The other hyperactive blonde said seriously.

Sasuke had been looking at his childhood friends that whole time. "Would the two of you DOBES shut up and come on?! I'd like to get this mission over with," he said scoldingly to the two blonde childhood friends of his.

The two blondes stopped and looked at Sasuke. "Fine, Sasuke-teme/Sasu," they said.

"Now come on. We're stopping by MY house first," Sasuke said calmly as he walked in the direction of his house. The two blondes followed after Sasuke.

Reagan scoffed. "You mean YOUR DISTRICT, Sasu," she corrected in a mocking tone. Naruto snickered at her bold comment. Sasuke, on the other hand, twirled around, Sharingan activated and glared harshly at Reagan. The bold blonde female looked into the Sharingan eyes of Sasuke as he harshly glared at her. "What a lovely Sharingan… Sasu. Too bad I've built up an immunity to the effects of the Sharingan," she said victoriously.

Naruto turned Sasuke away from Reagan and pushed him and made him continue to walk. "Let's keep going to your house, Sasuke-teme," he said into Sasuke's ear.


With Mitsuki—

Mitsuki had her things packed and ready to go. Some people had come to see her off: her younger twin sisters—Hana and Kimi Minakawa, her mother (in a sense) Kushina Uzumaki, her father (in a sense) Minato Namikaze, Sai, Kiba Inuzuka (Mitsuki's childhood love and crush) and he had brought Akamaru.

"Good luck, Big Sis!" the twins said as they glomped their older sister.

"Thanks, Hana. Kimi." Mitsuki said as she hugged the twins (Hana and Kimi) back.

Kushina pulled her daughter into a hug. "Good luck, Mitsuki. Be safe," she said while trying to hold back her sobs.

Mitsuki squeezed Kushina back. "Arigato, Okasan~! I'll try to be as safe as possible," she assured.

Sai looked at the grayish-blonde ninja. "Don't die, Weirdo, got it?" he said and Mitsuki hugged him.

"You're kidding me right, Sai? I'm not going to die! You know I am one of the best! Plus I am a medical ninja! I'm even better than Sakura! I'll be completely fine, thanks for your concern," she said semi-sarcastically at the end of her statement.

Minato patted the grayish-blonde's head. "Have a good trip, Mitsuki. Come back alive… and bring Naruto back in one piece as well as alive," he said and smiled at his daughter.

Said grayish-blonde daughter looked up at her father. "Thank you, Otosan. And believe me—I'll make sure Naru-kun and I come back alive. We have three more ninja (who are highly skilled jonin) with us… so… we will have to depend on other," Mitsuki reassured Minato.

Minato chuckled. "Ok. I trust you, my daughter," he said lovingly.

Akamaru barked at Mitsuki, she kneeled down and petted Akamaru. "Who's gonna miss me? OHHH~ who's gonna miss me?" she rhetorically asked Akamaru as she petted him.

"I will, Mitsuki," Kiba interjected huskily.

Mitsuki blushed and kept petting Akamaru. "Y-you will, Kiba?" she said shyly, not using the '-kun' at the end of Kiba's name as she usually did.

"No, 'Goodbye, Kiba-kun'? You didn't even address me as 'Kiba-kun'. What's wrong, Mitsuki?" Kiba said and moved closer to Mitsuki.

Mitsuki stood up and looked at Kiba. "Gomen, Kiba-kun. I was petting Akamaru. I wasn't paying attention to what I was saying," she said shyly and like Hinata.

Kiba smiled. "Why you shy around me all the sudden, Mitsuki?" he asked teasingly.

"B-be-because…" Mitsuki trailed off and sniffled then continued, "I'm gonna miss you, Kiba-kun!" she sobbed as she tackled Kiba to the ground.

Kiba smirked and stroked Mitsuki's hair. "I'll miss you, too, Mitsuki. Hey, how about the day you get back, we go out for ramen… just the two of us?" he offered.

"I-I'd enjoy that, Kiba-kun… Arigato… Kiba-kun… I have to go soon…" Mitsuki said as she buried he head into Kiba's chest.

Kiba smiled again. "Ok then… it's a date. So, come back alive and well. Got it," he said sweetly.

Mitsuki cuddled against Kiba even more. "You're damn right I'm gonna come back alive! It's me we're talking about, Kiba-kun~! I feel hurt that you'd ever think of me NOT coming back from a mission in the same condition I left in," she said with a cocky smirk.

"Oh no! Forgive me, my dearest Mi-chi! I meant no offense by saying that!" Kiba teased.

Mitsuki snapped her head to look up at Kiba's face. "Ey! You haven't used that nickname for me in years," she said as she caught Kiba's nickname for her.

Kiba smirked and showed off his canine tooth (his signature snaggletooth). "I just thought I should start calling you that again, Mi-chi," he said.

Mitsuki smirked and stood up, she helped Kiba up, too. Minato and Kushina looked at Mitsuki and Kiba; they gave the two a weird look. It took a few moments before Mitsuki and Kiba noticed this. "What?" they said simultaneously and gave Minato and Kushina an equally weird look back.

"Oh nothing… nothing at all, right, Honey?" Kushina said and smiled at Minato.

Minato smiled back at his wife. "Yes. It's nothing the two of you should concern yourselves with," he said and dismissed the matter as he and Kushina walked off.

Kimi and Hana snickered. "Love you, bye and good luck Big Sis! Bye Kiba-senpai!" the twins said and waved goodbye to Mitsuki and ran off after Kushina and Minato.

Mitsuki and Kiba were left with nothing but confusion and curiosity. The two looked at each other, completely dumbfounded. "What in the heck was THAT look?" Kiba asked.

Mitsuki shook her head. "Don't be looking at me, Kiba-kun. Because I don't know…" she said sharply.

Kiba sighed, "Guess we'll never know…"

"Well, I could pry the information outta Hana and Kimi," said Mitsuki.

Kiba shook his head. "No… not now at least. You've gotta go, Mi-chi," he said. "Want me to walk with you?"

"Please walk with me!" Mitsuki said as she grabbed her bag of regular supplies and medical supplies.


With the other four jonin—

Reagan, Naruto, Sasuke and Suigetsu all waited at the gates of Konoha. Reagan and Naruto talked; Sasuke was in a more talkative mood and was actually active in the two blonde's conversation.

"Whoa… Sasuke… you're actually talking…! It's a miracle! Has hell frozen over?" Suigetsu asked sarcastically.

"Oi! Didn't you know that Sasu's actually talkative around Naru-chin and I, Getsu?" Reagan said, Suigetsu shook his head 'no'. "Well~ ya know now, don't'cha Getsu?!" she exclaimed.

Suigetsu loved Reagan's ability to NEVER EVER be sad for a long period of time. She could be sad for a day or so, but she never was sad more than a few days. "Yeah… I know that now. I just never expected it from Sasuke. The guy's a freaking ICE CUBE! Or so I thought… guess he acts differently for his childhood friends," he said with a sigh.

Reagan smiled and wrapped an arm around Suigetsu's neck. "And now you know, Getsu~! Sasu is very different around Naru-chin and myself! Though, when we're outside Naru-chin's house or outside my house or outside the Uchiha district, Sasu has to keep up his 'ice cube' reputation… so, he has to act cold to us out in public most times. But, yeah, Sasu is quite talkative around me and Naru-chin," she said happily.

Suigetsu smiled and wrapped an arm around Reagan's neck. "I see. Now I know who I can come to if I want Sasuke to talk," he said with a cocky grin that showed off his toothy smile.

"Yep! Yep! You sure do, Getsu!" she exclaimed hyperactively. Her and Suigetsu stayed with their arms wrapped around each other's necks for a while. Reagan spotted a grayish-blonde dot on the horizon. "I see Mitsuki-chan! Who's with her?" she said and squinted her eyes as she saw a brown dot walking beside Mitsuki.

Naruto also squinted his eyes at the brown dot walking beside Mitsuki. "Not sure, Rea-Chama. It could be Kiba," he said.

"Kibi-chin! I hope that's Kibi-chin!" Reagan said using her since childhood nickname for Kiba Inuzuka.

"The crazy nicknames you come with for people, Rea-Chama," Naruto said to the crazy Reagan Higurashi.

Reagan smiled. "I know right, Naru-chin! I'm proud of the crazy nicknames I have given people!" she said crazily.

Several minutes go by and Kiba and Mitsuki arrive at the gates where the other four jonin were waiting for her. "Thanks for walking here with me, Kiba-kun," the grayish-blonde said to Kiba.

"No problem, Mitsuki-chi," Kiba said. "Have a good trip! Remember! Come back alive and we go out on that date we planned fro the day you get back!" he called as he walked off.

"BYE KIBI-CHIN!" Reagan screamed to the retreating Kiba.

Kiba stopped and looked back at Reagan. "Bye Crazy-Sama," he said and smiled at Reagan.

"I'm glad you remember my nickname, Kibi-chin!" Reagan said.

"It's hard to forget a nickname like 'Crazy-Sama' for a girl who gave me the nickname 'Kibi-chin', Crazy-Sama."

"I know, Kibi-chin. I just like to know that you haven't forgotten my nickname~! I have different nicknames according to the person. Like for you, my nickname is 'Crazy-Sama' or 'Lady Crazy'. For Naru-chin, my nickname is 'Rea-Chama'. For Getsu, my nickname is 'R'. Haha… I have lots of nicknames~!"

Kiba laughed. "I know. It's nearly six, the five of you should get going," he said but not before he kissed Mitsuki's cheek.

Mitsuki blushed and held her cheek that Kiba had kissed as she watched him walk away. She picked up her bags and turned to face the gates. "Kiba-kun's right. We should get going. Let's go," she said as she started to walk. The other four ninja followed after Mitsuki.


Several days later—

Mitsuki, Reagan, Naruto, Sasuke and Suigetsu were all about sevens days away from the start of their journey, Konoha. Amazingly, Reagan had actually listened to Tsunade (about how her being her hyperactive self would more than likely revel the mission) and had calmed down and reverted to her calm and quiet self of which had helped her become one of the highest ranked jonin of Konoha. Naruto, on the other hand, had no quiet alter-ego and therefore stayed his loud and hyperactive self–much to everyone's annoyance, but he had not spoken for about three days. Sasuke and Mitsuki never spoke to each other and the proud Uchiha would just glare harshly and hatefully at the Nakashima. Suigetsu was quiet and when he spoke, he and Reagan had quiet conversations with their voices low just in case any ambushes had been set up by other major villages like Konoha to keep the rouge ninja away.

"Reagan, Suigetsu, Naru-kun. I want the three of you to scout ahead… see if there are any traps set up ahead about a mile from our current position. I felt some chakra coming from there a few hours ago." Mitsuki said to the three.

Reagan and Suigetsu nodded without speaking. Naruto opened his mouth, "Why the hell didn't you tell us when you first sensed the chakra, Mitsuki-chin?!" he yelled loudly.

Sasuke glared at Naruto. "Shut up and keep your damned voice down, Dobe. Do as you were told without question," he commanded harshly.

Naruto gulped and vanished like Reagan and Suigetsu had. Mitsuki was more than shocked at Sasuke's command to Naruto.

"Thanks, Uchiha. But I didn't need your help with Naru-kun. I had him under control," she thanked and snubbed the Uchiha. Mitsuki began to set up a camp for the night.

Sasuke glared at the Nakashima. "Not from where I was standing. Looked like you just gave the Dobe the chance to ruin the mission by opening his big mouth," he said.

Mitsuki glared over her shoulder with an abnormality in her eyes, her eyes had become purple, Sasuke noted this closely. "You ever say that I caused Naru-kun to ruin this mission again… I will not hesitate to cut you and your fucking ego down to size, understand me, Uchiha!" she yelled, venom oozing from her voice.

Inwardly, Sasuke cringed, but he would never show that he had cringed outside of his mind. "Yeah right. You could never hurt me," he said, treating her like he once had treated Sakura–like a crazed fangirl. He smirked as Mitsuki stopped and turned towards him and ran towards him. I knew it, no girl can resist me and my Uchiha charm. Sasuke thought arrogantly.

Mitsuki grimaced at the Uchiha as he seemingly stood in a readied stance as if to welcome something. Well, if he IS in a readied stance, he might as well welcome a swift punch in the fucking gut! Mitsuki thought to herself. "Wanna fucking bet, Uchiha!?" she yelled as she skidded into a punching stance and punched the arrogant bastard in the gut. Sasuke flew up into the air a few feet but then gravity worked its magic and he fell back to Earth with a loud THUD! Mitsuki smiled to herself as she patted her hands together victoriously and turned back around to continue her previous things.

Sasuke grunted as his body made contact with the hard ground. "Damn… that girl's got a punch…" he said to himself then he blacked out.


Several Hours later—

Sasuke woke up to a humming Mitsuki, he sat up and found that his shirt had been removed and his midsection and torso area had been bandaged up. "WHAT IN THE HELL HAPPENED TO ME!" the Uchiha exploded to Mitsuki. He looked around to see that Reagan, Naruto and Suigetsu had still not returned.

Mitsuki looked at Sasuke from over her shoulder. "You doubted that I would hurt you, you arrogant bastard. So, I hurt you. However, I hurt you more than I planned to. It seemed that when I punched you, I broke most of your ribs and bruised some of your internal organs because of the breaking of your ribs. Then, when your body crashed back down to Earth, you broke the remaining ribs that weren't broken by me and you punctured your stomach as well as both of your lunges. On that note, when your body made contact with the ground, you broke your shoulder blade and arm while popping your other shoulder out of its socket. When I found you, after making the fire and setting up the tents, you were in a pool of blood. I carried you back to my tent and healed you with my medical nin-jutsu. I healed most of your injuries, but, I would refrain from moving and talking too much, you could open a wound again… whether the injury be internal or external, you could open a wound. So, Sasuke… I'm pleading with you, please stay still for a few days. It'll take about three for you to completely heal. Please be still for that long," she said full of concern and genuine worry.

Sasuke heard this genuine worry in her voice but payed to no attention. "You… are a bitch! You fucking break my goddamn ribs then make me puncture my damn internal organs! Fuck you!" he screamed and began coughing up blood.

Mitsuki got up and ran over to Sasuke. "Sasuke-kun! Stop talking, dumbass!" she said as she laid Sasuke back down onto her sleeping bag. "Hush and calm down… please calm down and do as I said, Sasuke-kun. Please… if you die, Reagan and Naru-kun will hate me… please… don't die… I-I am sorry…" she said as she leaned over Sasuke and let a single tear fall onto Sasuke's face.

Sasuke stirred and pushed Mitsuki off of him. "Get the hell off of me, bitch! You have no right to tell me that you're SORRY! You have absolutely NO right whatsoever to say SORRY to me!" he screamed loudly at her.

The grayish-blonde's eyes filled with tears and she curled up into the fetal position in the corner of her tent. "I-I truly am sorry, Sasuke-kun! I'm sorry I called you an arrogant bastard! I'm sorry I punched you and caused this all to happen! I just don't want Reagan and Naru-kun to hate me! Please don't die! I'M SORRY SASUKE UCHIHA!" she sobbed.

Sasuke looked at the girl curled up in the fetal position in the corner of her tent, he looked down at the bandages that were newly soaked with blood from a wound that had reopened because of his squirming. He sighed and got up and made his way over to the sobbing Mitsuki. "Shut up with your sobbing. You're sounding like Sakura. Ok, I get it… I won't die. Just stop with your damn crying would you," he said as he sat down beside the sobbing woman.

Mitsuki looked at Sasuke up and down. "Sa…su…ke…-kun! Your wounds have reopened! Go lay back down and I'll reseal the opened wound!" she said when she saw the blood-soaked bandage.

Sasuke looked at her curiously. "Why did you start calling my by my first name, let alone Sasuke-kun?" he asked Mitsuki and did as she told him which was to go lay back down.

Mitsuki looked at Sasuke when she made her way to her sleeping bag with the bloody-bandaged Sasuke lay on it. "I started calling you Sasuke-kun to show you that I really am worried about you. I wouldn't ever call you Sasu like Reagan does because that's her nickname she came up with from your chilldhood. And Naru-kun calls you Sasuke-teme… I thought that you'd like someone who was never one of your mindless fangirls to call you Sasuke, I called you Sasuke-kun to make a point, don't get used to me calling you Sasuke-kun, got it, Sasuke. Now let's reseal that wound you opened," she said as she unwrapped the bloody bandage from Sasuke's torso and began to heal and reseal the wound he had reopened.

Sasuke groaned as Mitsuki had rubbed some ointment that would help the wound heal faster into the open wound. "Watch it. That's hurts you know," he snarled at the grayish-blonde (straw colored) medic-nin/deadly jonin.

The ninja, who was at that moment in her medic-nin mode, looked the snarling Uchiha in the eye. "Sasuke. This is going to help it heal sooner. This ointment will have this injury good as new in about half an hour. I know it stings with you first apply to the open wound, but give it a few moments and it will not sting as bad," she explained to Sasuke.

And when I am fully healed, I am going to do so many horrible things to you! The Uchiha thought bitterly to himself, thinking about how he would punish Mitsuki for putting him in this situation in the first place.

"Ey… Sasuke…" Mitsuki said in a breathy tone as she checked Sasuke's internal injuries. "Your internal injuries are healing well. I'll continue to heal them," she said as her hands started to glow a royal purple because of her chakra. She first set her hands over Sasuke's chest to heal the internal injuries and bruising of Sasuke's heart and previously punctured lunges. A soothing feeling swept over Sasuke's whole body, he sighed a heavily relieved sigh as Mitsuki's soothing chakra repaired his internal injuries and bruises. After Mitsuki had completely healed Sasuke's bruised heart and previously punctured lunges, she moved her hands down lower, to Sasuke's torso… to heal his stomach injuries. Sasuke shuddered as relief swept over him. "Oh my, Sasuke… I'm glad that you have relaxed. Do you find my chakra soothing?" she said and smiled at the Uchiha.

Sasuke groaned in relief. Mitsuki giggled as she finished her healing of Sasuke's internal injuries and bruises. "There you go, your internal injuries and bruises I healed," she said as smiled at the Uchiha. "I would try to heal your broken shoulder blade and arm, but I am running out of chakra to heal those injuries. Sorry. You'll have to sleep in my tent tonight, Sasuke. Just so I can keep an eye on you and just for tonight," the Nakashima said seriously.

"Hn." Sasuke said. He was starting to like this girl, she had proven herself to not being one of his crazed fangirls… and the best thing was, she was like Reagan… she actually cared about him in a way none of his fangirls could ever care for him (that does not include his former fangirl—Sakura Haruno). He looked at Mitsuki and saw a bit of Reagan in her. "You remind me of Reagan a bit…" he said quietly.

Mitsuki looked at Sasuke with wide eyes for a minute, then her eyes softened. "I do? How do I remind you of Reagan, Sasuke?" she asked the sixteen-year-old Uchiha.

"You… you just care for me like Reagan does… I would love to make her my wife one day, but she's in love with my older brother, Itachi," he said.

Mitsuki smiled at the Uchiha. "Oh… I'm sorry to hear that she is in love with your older brother. I think she would make a wonderful wife for you. However, I think she will make a wonderful wife for Itachi, too. She is such a caring girl who is always there for anyone and everyone who she crosses paths with… she has made many former rouge ninja turn into ninja of Konoha. I wish I could be like her… she is never saddened by anything, that is an admirable trait that I wish I could have. I look up to Reagan as if she were a Hokage of Konoha… she is amazing. I understand why you would want her to be your wife, but if she does love your older brother like you said she does… she will make a wonderful wife for Itachi and a wonderful sister-in-law," she said genuinely.

Sasuke grunted. "I suppose you are right. I would love to have her as mine before Itachi gets her. He loves her as she loves him, it's only a matter of time before they end up together," he said.

Mitsuki sighed and looked at Sasuke with a sympathetic expression. "I know how you feel, for a while, I wanted to have Naru-kun as mine but… then I saw how he acted around Hinata and how she acted around Naru-kun. I told myself that they would look better together than me and Naru-kun. Because, I know that Hinata deserves Naru-kun much more than me. She has loved him longer than I have. I mean, at first, I only loved Naru-kun as a brother… then it grew to slight infatuation and now that I have decided that Naru-kun's off limits to me, I love him like a brother again. So, I know how you feel Sasuke…" she said as she laid down and started unzipping her zip-up midnight blue sleeveless shirt reveling a large portion of her double-D sized breast's swell to Sasuke.

Sasuke looked at the swell of Mitsuki's breasts. "You hot or something?" he asked quietly as he tried to keep himself from looking at her breasts which was uncharacteristic.

Mitsuki unconsciously sat up to look at Sasuke and pressed her breasts together. "Hmm? What was that, Sasuke? I couldn't hear you… you were talking too quietly." she said not knowing that she was teasing Sasuke.

Sasuke had an uncharacteristically hard time willing himself to look away from Mitsuki, he mumbled incoherently. Mitsuki touched his previously popped out of socket shoulder and Sasuke looked at her, his eyes wondered down and he saw her immense cleavage. He nearly nosebleed right then and there, if it wasn't for him being and Uchiha he would have already attacked Mitsuki and would be having her screaming his name so loud that even the heavens would hear her scream his name. Sasuke, kept his hormones from getting the best of him, pulled his arm away from Mitsuki. "Get away from me…" he mumbled.

Mitsuki had caught on to what the Uchiha was thinking… after all, she had been raised around Naruto and Jiraiya so of course she would be a pervert of a sort. "Hmm… I'm kind of really hot in here, aren't you, Sa-su-ke?" she said each syllable of his name hotly as she started to unzip her shirt even more.

Sasuke gulped silently, Damn tease… he thought as he noticed that Mitsuki was nearing him. "Stay away, Mitsuki…! I'm still injured," the Uchiha said, trying to make Mitsuki stop.

Mitsuki smirked and neared Sasuke as if she—the predator and he—the prey. "Oh… Sasuke-kun… I have checked you up and down since I found you in the pool of blood. You are fine. Though there is one certain area I haven't checked to see if it was injured… I suppose you'd want me to check that area," she said seductively.

Sasuke would have lied if he said that he didn't enjoy the suggestiveness of Mitsuki's actions and the look in Mitsuki's eye.

'Maybe I should let her examine that area. Maybe it could've been injured.' Sasuke's inner said and smirked pervertedly.

'Hn. Maybe I should.'

'Yeah! Let us let her take a look at THAT part of us…' Inner-Sasuke said pervertedly.

Sasuke had let his inner get the better of him. "You are the doctor here, Mitsuki," he said huskily.

Mitsuki smirked deviously. "Sas-uke-kun… someone's been a naughty ninja. Haven't they?" she asked and started to have fun teasing the great Sasuke Uchiha. She was in between Sasuke's legs by now and rubbed Sasuke's thighs in a sensual and relaxed way, her eyes hooded with the smallest traces of lust.

Sasuke gulped but kept his calm composure. "Hn," he said and tried to keep Mitsuki from spotting the noticeable tent that was pitched in his pants.

His efforts were futile. "Ah… someone seems to be excited… what's the meaning of that, Sasuke-kun? Am I too much for you to handle?" Mitsuki cooed seductively as he moved her hands slowly from rubbing Sasuke's thighs to the bulge in his pants. Sasuke groaned quietly and looked down at Mitsuki to see her with a devious smirk that graced her face.

Mitsuki's gaze never broke away frim Sasuke's. She stopped and touched his cheek. "That area's fine, Sasuke."

Suddenly, the two heard voices outside in their camp.

"Where'd they go?" Suigetsu asked Reagan and readied the giant sword that Zabuza Momochi had given him.

Reagan 'shh'ed Suigetsu. "Not sure where they went, Getsu," she said warily.

Sasuke and Mitsuki noted how quietly and softly Reagan and Suigetsu talked to each other. Where is Dobe/Naru-kun? Sasuke and Mitsuki thought to themselves.

"Sasu... Mitsuki-chan... where are y'all?" Reagan asked aloud yet quietly.

Mitsuki moved away from Sasuke and rezipped her midnight blue sleeveless shirt then walked out of her tent. "Sasuke and I are over here... in my tent," she called out and waved to catch the three ninja's attention.

"Oh~! Mitsuki-chin! Why are you and Sasuke-teme in the same tent?! I thought you two hated each other?" Naruto exclaimed, his hyperactive self.

"Sasuke had an accident... he kinda had punctured his lunges with some of his broken ribs, he broke ALL of his ribs. That also caused a brusing of his heart and stomach. He broke his shoulder blade and arm and popped the other out of its socket. I found him in a pool of blood then I took him to my tent to heal him. He's pretty much fully healed, we just should refrain from having move to much," Mitsuki explained.

"Damn! What was Sasu doing?" Reagan said with astonishment.

"Who knows, it's Sasuke-teme, Rea-Chama... no one knows with him," Naruto said.

Reagan nodded in agreement. "True, true. Naru-chin... true, true." she said "So, can we see Sasu?" Reagan asked Mitsuki.

"I suppose so. I mean, I did heal most of his injuries," Mistuki said. For some unknown reason, Reagan and Naruto started to laugh. "What are you two laughing at?" Mitsuki asked.

"At what they think Sasuke got so beat up over," Suigetsu answered Mitsuki's question.

"Oh. And what do they think Sasuke got so beat up over for?" Mitsuki asked curiously.

"Considering they are now literally rolling on the ground laughing... their horrible garble-language they're speaking to each other right now, I'd say that they think that Sasuke doubted you when you said you would hurt him, so you did hurt him," Suigetsu deciphered the thoughts of the-still on the ground-blondes as they laughed.

"H-... h-hai... G-Getsu... y-you g-guessed... N-N-Naru-chin and myself's thoughts... exactly!" Reagan gasped out the sentence.

Mitsuki blushed and looked away from the three ninja. "Well..." she trailed off.

Naruto caught his breath. "You actually hurt Sasuke-teme THAT bad Mitsuki-chin?!" he asked hysterically and unbelievingly.

"Yes... BUT I didn't exactly mean to hurt him as badly as I did. That much I swear!" Mitsuki defended herself.

"Ah~! So, Mitsuki-chan did hurt Sasu. What didn't you mean to happen?" Reagan asked.

"I just meant to prove to Sasuke that I'm not a fangirl of his. Never have. Never will," Mitsuki said.

"I believe chu, Mitsuki-chan. Sasu does think that pretty much every girl other than me is obsessed lunatic who would maul him," Reagan said.

Mitsuki smiled proudly. "And I proved I'm no fangirl of his, so we're good."

"That's good to hear that you and Sasuke-teme are friends now. Though, to be completely honest, I never did think that the two of you would actually become friends, Mitsuki-chin!" Naruto said with his signature goofy grin and hyperactive loudness.

Mitsuki smiles. "Yep! We hated each other for years because of the fact that I was a better ninja than him!" she teased. "But then Sasuke really hated me when I dogged on his girlfriend—more like damned banshee—Karin," she finished.

Reagan groaned. "UGH! Shuddup Mitsuki-chan! I loathe that bitch Karen with a fucking burning passion! Still do, even though she left years ago, gods I still despise that loathsome she-devil!" Reagan cried.

"Well, they did go out." "Shuddup!" "But…" "MEH! Zip!" "But Reag—" "HUSH!" "No. Sasuke and Kari—" "MEH! I'm not listening!" "You're supposed to be listening! Sasuke and Karin dated~ Yes they did~!" "Ugh! Be calm, shuddup and never mention that harlot's name, EVER again!" "Nuh-uh~! I'll say it as many times as I want Reagan!" "NOOOOoooo!" "Yes!" "Mitsuki-chan! Don't be mean!" "KARIN!" "Grr… she's the harlot of which I want dead, destroyed, forgotten, boiled, shot, chopped up into a million pieces, burned, crucified as a whore, hung, lynched, burned alive, I WANT HER DEAD! Physically, spiritually, emotionally, mentally… I want all of her DEAD and erased from this UNIVERSE!" Reagan rampaged.

"Whoa…" "Damn…" "Rea-Chama…" Mitsuki, Suigetsu and Naruto said and made a sentence. (A/N: the sentence was "Whoa, damn, Rea-Chama")

"W…what?" Reagan shrugged. "That's my opinion of that useless whore. I mean, you all as well as I—myself—have seen how worthless and useless and incompetent that WHORE Karen was in a battle. She hardly did a damned thing to help anyone during the battle! She heals people by letting them BITE her and she gets off when Sakura's Sasu bites her… grody! Sasu belongs with Sakura Haruno. I just wish he'd see that," she said angrily then wishfully.

"But! What about me, Rea-Chama?! Who do I belong with!?" Naruto inquired hyperactively.

Reagan smiled sweetly and tenderly, "You belong with Hinata-chan! Y'all'd be so cute together~! Like, you don't even know how cute you two'd be together!" she said happily yet truthfully.

"And me?" Mitsuki asked.

"You'd be adorable with Kibi-chin, Mitsuki-chan!"

"Y-you serious?"

"Yesh! Dead serious! I can just picture our kids 12-13 years from now. Itachin and myself will have around four kids—I'm naming the first girl 'Katsuki'! She'll have my eye color and skin tone and'll have Itachin's hair color and her personality'll be a mixture of me and Itachin's personalities. Kibi-chin and Mitsuki-chan'll fraternal twins! The boy'll have Kibi-chin's hair color and Mitsuki-chan's eye color; the girl'll have Mitsuki-chan's hair color and Kibi-chin's eye color. Naru-chin and Hinata-chan'll have a boy and a girl; the girl being the younger sibling and'll be Katsuki's age, her name'll be Kushina (after Kushina-Senpai). Kushina and Katsuki'll be the best of friends and will be on the same team as genin; Kushina will have her mother's eye color and Naru-chin's hair color as well as his sun-kissed tan skin tone… oh not to mention that Kushina is gonna have Naru-chin's hyperactive nature! Their boy'll be named after Minato-Senpai and'll have Hinata-chan's hair color and'll be fair skinned like her, too. Minato (Naru-chin and Hinata-chan's Minato) will have Naru-chin's beautiful cerulean eyes and will have a combination of Naru-chin and Hinata-chan's personalities. Getsu… yuck… I hate to inform you that I can see you bearing a girl with Karen… your baby girl's name is gonna be Shiori Hozuki and she is going to have your hair color as well as your skin color. As for Shiori's personality… it will be a combination of yours and mine as Karen'll still be trying to get into Sasu's pants and trying to slip him and Saku-chin and the family they make together apart and therefore will not be a very good motherly figure, not to mention she will hardly be at home. She'll spend most of her time snooping around the Uchiha District where I will be living with Itachin and our children as well as Sasu and Saku with their children will be living, too, and Karen'll try unsuccessfully many times to seduce Sasu. Anyways~ that's all I'm telling tonight!" Reagan ranted a bit.


Ok, Reagan Higurashi is me in OC form. As you the readers can tell, I really do loathe Karin with a burning passion. I think she is just a useless bitch who can't do anything in a battle other that gawk at Sasu (Sasuke) and sense Chakra… yeah… what in the hell is sensing chakra going to do for you if the enemy is RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU! She can't do ANYTHING! I hope she is killed off from the series.
