After three days of traveling, Tyra, Salem, Kira and Sive were finally in Konoha.
"Stop where you are." a voice said from the distance. "Well, well, well, look who we have here, our very own traitor, Tyra Virda. And with two other people from Akatsuki."
"can I explain?" Tyra asked.
"Not to us, but the Hokage would love to hear your story."
The Black Ops. team led Tyra and the others to the Hokage.
"Why did you come back?" The Hokage asked,
"Because, when I was in Akatsuki, I found out so much about myself and realized how much I miss my home, Kira here, is actually from the fire nation, but if I may say so myself, I'd rather her stay with me, and my brother, my long lost brother, well there's nothing to say."
"But why do you expect me to welcome you back with open arms?" "Because, I am the same person I was back then, but yet I have changed and came to know of what I had inside of me. I realized from Kira that the only reason Akatsuki would want me is for my nine tailed wolf that is still dormant inside of me. I am here to pledge all my loyalty to Konoha me and my demon, and also here to present the four tailed dog, Kira."
"All of your loyalty?"
Salem, Kira and Tyra answered, "YES!"
The Hokage nodded his approval.
"I must ask one more question. Do you think Kira is ready to be in the Chunin exams?"
"Of course she is, she's wise, but Hokage, she has no other squad." "She will then join team 7." Tyra smiled at his suggestion.
Then Tyra turned to Kira, "Are you ready to become a true Konoha ninja, and a Chunin?"
Kira smiled, "I would be honored."
The Hokage stepped in, "Then done, and Tyra, It would be a pleasure if you and your brother could be protractors in the Chunin exams?" Salem stepped in, "Of course, we would be most honored."
The very next week, Tyra was prepared for the first part of the Chunin exams. Sitting by her brother she whispered to Salem,
"So what do you think?"
"About what?"
"Here!"
"Oh, pretty nice, not a lot of training, don't have to watch your back all the time."
"Good"
Tyra watched as the protractor walked in. Explaining the rules. Then the test began. Tyra watched one kid. He wasn't very good at cheating, she had already caught him twice. Then Tyra caught him the last. She threw a kunai at the boy's paper.
"Team 156, you are dismissed."
The boy and his two teammates both walked out of the room. Many people began to tense up.
Slowly minutes went by, but finally the first part of the test was done. Anko arrived a bit early, but no one seemed to care. Salem and Tyra were part of the crew who would be running in the forest to be sure that no one will kill each other on purpose.
The last words before anybody departed was, "Don't Die."
Tyra wanted to burst out laughing at some of the reactions.
two days later
Tyra went from tree to tree. She was looking for anything that didn't belong. Then she could hear people shouting then Tyra recognized a voice as Sakura's.
"This way," Tyra jump onto a branch where Tyra and Salem could see everything.
What Tyra saw, astounded her. Naruto, Kira and Sasuke were on the ground, beaten and scratched up. Sakura was attending to them, beaten up as well. Her hair was all chopped up.
Ino, Shikamaru, and Chouji were fighting against the genin from the Hidden Sound Village. Had those three genin really hurt an Uchiha, the nine tailed fox, the four tailed dog and Sakura that bad? Amazing.
"Their strong," Salem crouches down.
"Well, why don't you come down here and fight?" the one with bandages covering the majority of his face asks.
"This is not our fight, besides we'd tear you up," Salem calls back.
"Their part of the once mysterious Virda. You can tell. Maybe Orochimaru would like to know about them as well," the man whispers. Neither Tyra nor Salem could pick up what he said. "Come down here and fight us!"
"This, as he said before, is not our fight. But if you don't start paying attention your friend is about to get hurt," Tyra nodded towards the one fighting the fat kid. The rolling ball falls towards the guy, and his friend, the one yelling at us, darts forward.
"Zaku!"
"I know who they are now," Salem tells me. "Zaku, Dosu, and Kin, ninja from the Village Hidden in the Sound."
Tyra stared at the fight. Ino inhabits the body of their female teammate, and threatens to impale a kunai through her throat, killing the girl.
Zaku grins while shooting a blast of air at her, causing the girl to hit the tree and blood to pour from her mouth and from Ino's body's mouth.
It was sad how obvious that really was.
"Oh I hate watching this," Tyra whispered to Salem.
Two more genin from the Hidden Leaf Village jump next to Salem and Tyra.
"These genin are starting to annoy me," Dosu says aloud. "Why don't you come down here and fight?"
"They are from Lee's team. The guy with the large dog eyebrows," Salem explains. He was always the smart one who looked up people first.
Tyra could feel a huge burst of chakra, causing her bones to chill.
"I don't think I have to." The guy with Byukagun says.
Tyra looked down and see Sasuke, rising in a cloud of dark energy. She shuddered... the pure evil emanating from him was overwhelming.
"That power... that couldn't possibly be just him," Salem whispers in awe.
"Orochimaru, missing-nin from the Hidden Leaf Village, number one target on The Black Ops hit list," Tyra told Salem. "He's the one that gave Sasuke so much power. He sent his drones to see how strong he really was."
"How do you know that?" Salem asked.
"Itachi told me"
"Sakura, who did this to you?" Sasuke asks her, the black markings covering his left half of his exposed skin.
"Sasuke?" she was staring at him.
"Who did this to you?"
"That would be me!" Zaku smirks smugly.
"I think he'll kill Zaku," Salem says.
"He'll show him some mercy. Not much, but from what little bit I know about Sasuke, he wouldn't purposely kill them unless they were the ones to kill the Uchiha clan." Tyra leaned back on her elbows.
Zaku sends some supersonic attack, where that anyone near, their ears would be ringing painfully. Zaku smirks when he sees Sasuke and the other two gone.
"Completely obliterated," he smirks evilly.
"Think again," Sasuke hits Zaku hard in the back, causing him to fly.
He had moved his three teammates at a speed that rivaled Tyra's.
I am... dare I say it... afraid of Sasuke Uchiha right now.
"I sense your fear," Salem whispers.
Tyra nods, and watch as Sasuke sends three fireballs at Zaku. The sound-nin uses the things in his hands, to blow the fire away, but is soon hit with shurikens that were hidden in the flames.
Just as he goes to duck, Sasuke appears, planting a foot hard in his back, grabbing the guy's arms, Haku's face now in the ground.
"You think so much of these arms," Sasuke's cold voice said.
Tyra shivered, the voice reminded her of Itachi.
Then she heard a faint popping.
Sasuke was trying to rip Haku's arms off.
"He's so strong," Salem said.
Tyra could hear a loud, sickening popping noise, and recognize his arms being dislocated in the most painful of ways.
Sasuke starts towards Dosu, Sakura darts forward, clinging to him in a hug, her eyes shedding crystal clear tears.
It was sweet, in a disturbing way, but still sort of sweet.
