Chapter 2

Konan walked up to the gates of the Hidden Leaf. She removed her hood. One of the guards walked up to her.

"Hold it. I'm going to need to see your ID, Miss." Konan gave it to him. He looked it over for a minute, then gave it back to her.

"Alright, you're good. Go on in."

"Thank you." Konan walked through the streets. She looked all around her.

"So this is the Hidden Leaf..." Konan flinched and blinked when she heard a loud crash. All she saw was two young ninja, one blonde-haired and one brown-haired, running, laughing, from a pink-haired girl yelling at them. "KONOHAMARU! NARUTO!"

Konan stopped cold. 'Naruto...the...blond-haired one, I assume? I should follow them.'

Konan started running after them. She didn't want to be seen, though, so she somewhat kept her distance. When she caught up to them, she saw the two had already gotten punished.

"And one more for the fact that you ran from me!" yelled the girl, raising her fist again. Konan frowned. Just as she started throwing her punch, she felt it stop. She blinked, then looked next to her to find a lavender-haired woman holding her arm back.

"That's enough. I think they learned their lesson." stated Konan. Sakura jumped back, startled.

"W-Who are you?" she asked.

"Ah, my name is Konan. I'm a traveling ninja." she lied.

"O-Oh. Nice to meet you." Naruto stood up.

"Wow! You're strong if you can stop a punch like Sakura's!" he shouted. Konan smiled.

"Where are you from originally?" asked Naruto.

"The Hidden Rain."

"Oh...never heard of it."

Sakura face-palmed herself. "Well then, you're just a first class idiot, aren't you?!" yelled Sakura. Konan laughed.

"Do you want to follow us to meet Grandma Tsunade?" asked Naruto.

"As a matter of fact, I have some business with her anyway, so alright." They went along to the Hokage's mansion. Sakura knocked.

"Who is it?" asked Tsunade.

"It's me and Naruto. You have a visitor."

"Come in." The four of them walked in, with Konan at the rear.

"Who's the visitor?" Konan walked forward.

"That would be me. It's been quite a long time, hasn't it?"

"Oh, you're-! K-Konan?!"

"Ah, you rember my name?"

"How could I forget. I thought you were dead!" The others looked confused.

"What made you think that?"

"Jiraiya got a message from the Rain saying all three of you died!"

"...That does sound like something Hanzo would do...I'm afraid only I survived. I'm sure he wanted to cover up that story, though."

"Oh...I'm sorry to hear that."

"It's alright. I've begun traveling since then and honing my skills."

"Oh, what kind of skills?" asked Naruto.

"If you want, I can show you outside."

"OK. Let's go see." Everyone followed Konan outside. She stood on one end of the street, while Tsunade took the other.

"I'll be your opponent today."

"Alright. Begin!" shouted Sakura. Tsunade charged up her fist with chakra, and started running towards Konan. Konan simply held her hand up, ready to block it. Tsunade looked surprised, and hesitated for a moment, but kept going. Konan wasn't fazed a bit. Tsunade was now right up next to her, and threw her punch at Konan's hand. The hand blew off.

"Oh my God! Konan!" yelled Sakura.

"...Ah, I see now. Why she wasn't scared." said Naruto.

"Huh? What do you mean?" asked Sakura.

"There's no blood. Her hand didn't really detatch."

"How perceptive." stated Konan. Her sleeve was then surrounded by flying paper. Her hand quickly reattached.

"Now then," stated Konan. She grew her angelic wings. "I suppose I'll give you a taste of what I'm capable of."

End.

Heads up: next fanfic will be SAO that takes place after GGO. Hoping to update New Era soon.
