Chapter 3

Kaede walks out the main gates without looking back, summoning a great black panther "Riku, thanks for coming." Kaede climbs on Riku's back grabbing a tuff of fur while holding on to the basket. "Let's go, Riku." Stated Kaede.

The panther turning toward Konoha sprinting at top speed. "Kaede what's in the basket?" "Karura's newborn daughter named Rin." Replied Kaede. "I see, Kaede I will allow her to summon my kind when she is a genin." "Thanks Riku, I need all the help I can get."

Riku came to a stop right outside the gates of Konoha. Kaede climbed down off of Riku's back walking towards the gate. "Halt, passport please." Replied a chunin. "Don't you see she is a Konoha Nin, Baka." Replied Souta as he punched the guy on the head. "Gomen, I didn't realize who you where." "It's okay, you where anxious for a passport weren't you?" "Hai." Among the basket of blankets you could hear a faint babies cry. "Kaede who's that?" picking up the infant, "She's my daughter; her name is Rin." "Kaede what would Tenchi say about this?" "My brother has no business in my affairs." "Kaede whose child is it?"

Kaede looks at Souta then at the chunin. Souta turns looking at the chunin. "Don't you have work to do?" "Hai, captain-sama." The chunin replied walking away and back to guarding the gate. "Karura died giving birth to twins and I swore to protect this child." "Karura, what you got to be joking, and how many kids does she have?" "Rin is her fourth child the others are: Temari, Kanuro, and Gaara whose Rin's twin."

"Sorry Souta I need to debrief to the Hokage-sama." "Okay I'll talk to you later." Kaede replied walking toward the Hokage tower.
