Back again yay!

So I still don't have any wifi, but I have come back from my trip. Although you guys will be reading this when I have my wifi, I don't now. And that's really sad. I only have a 16 GM modem for each month and the bloody device has gone on the fritz, hopefully it will be fixed soon though.

Can't wait.

Alice P.O.V (it's been a while)

"I'm singing, ring-ding-dinging, oh I'm singing a song. If you want to, you can come too, and sing a song with me. Oh I'm-"

"Can you shut up!"

I stopped my impromptu singing and glared at Sasuke, "someone's in a pissy mood yeah?"

"Could you please stop saying yeah all the time!" He seemed rather snappy and irritable today, though I had no idea why.

"Are you on your male PMS?" I quirked my eyebrow at the pissy Uchiha, "because you've seem to have forgotten that I can't control my verbal ticks and I'm unlucky enough to have revisited the yeah stage. Again. I should not have thought about dub Deidara…" I trailed off absently, I didn't know why, but I had been thinking about home a lot recently. I really hope Sasuke didn't hear me last night, I had realised that I would never see my brother again…

Not unless I found a way to somehow transport myself through time and space. The only way I could do that was if I managed to convince that douche inside of me to transport me back, but I had a feeling that it wouldn't do that. My other option was….fuinjutsu!

I ignored Sasuke's snappish attitude, screw his pissy tantrums, I was going to find a way home! It may just take a fair time of studying…and I thought I had gotten away from school and it's never ending studying.

"Is there a library for ninjas?" I shook Sasuke back and forth by his shoulders, "I need to know now. It's urgent, yeah!"

"Let go of me bitch," Sasuke slapped my hands away and stood up off the ground we had been 'training' on. It was really Sasuke teaching me basic stances for taijutsu and then making me attack him so he could practise using his sharingan. Real selfish isn't he? The first chance I get to learn taijutsu and it's a ten minute lesson for Sasuke's benefit. When I told him he was an ass-among other words-and quit, that might've been the start of his hissy fit.

"C'mon douchebag!" I used my puppy eyes on Sasuke, "pretty please with a cherry-on-top." I pushed out my bottom lip in hopefully what was a pout and gathered up tears in the corners of my eyes. "Pllleeeaaaasssseeeee." I took in a big breath, "pppplllllleeeeeaaaaassssseeeeee-"

"Okay if you just shut up I'll tell you!" My face was shoved away by Sasuke's hand, but that didn't matter, I was off to a library. Yay! I'm coming back old friend.

Sasuke shoved his hands in his pockets as he led me away from the training grounds. I quietly followed him as he led me through the streets of Konoha, quite a fair way through Konoha might I add.

We stopped outside a large, old building which Sasuke gestured at, "this is Konoha's library. Civilians and ninjas alike can go in here," he then smirked smugly, "but only ninjas can go into the ninja sections. You need a headband as proof, and this time, you can't bluff your way through it!"

I nodded gratefully to him, "thanks for showing me here, you don't have to stay here, I can find my way hom-back to your place, yeah?" I smiled at him even as he scowled at me, "I'll see you in an hour or so yeah."

"Tch," scoffed Sasuke, "more like a minute."

I ignored him and continued up the stairs to the reception just inside the entrance. I stopped in front of the desk and coughed politely to get the woman busily working there to look up.

She glared up at me with bespectacled eyes, "child there better be a good reason why you're interrupting me work, hmm?"

I smiled at her nervously and felt myself revert to polite child mode. "Ano, I'm very sorry to bother you miss. I seem to have a problem you see, and I need to go into the ninja section to help me fix it, yeah?"

The lady harrumphed angrily at me, "child only ninjas can go in there and only civilians of Konoha can go inside my library. Get out of here foreigner!"

I flinched at the harsh way she spoke to me but continued to press my point. It was a risky move, and I didn't know how it would plan out, but I had to try it. I leant in close to the lady and cupped my mouth like I was telling a secret, in which, I was.

"Miss what you're about to hear is an S-class secret that only Hokage-sama, the famous Copy-nin Kakashi, and the last of the Uchiha, Uchiha Sasuke, know." I felt the woman stiffen and lean in even closer to hear me, "continue child."

I managed to swallow the wicked grin that threatened to cover my face and continue on with my bluff, of truth. "You see I am a foreigner, one that whose matters have been directed under Hokage-sama personally. My..condition is highly confidential and I need to know how to control the aspect of me that comes along with it. You see….that boy Uzumaki Naruto..you know of him and what he holds, yeah?" I felt the woman tremble slightly as she stayed stock still, "well my condition, is one of a higher calibre. What I hold is something that far outweighs the amount of death that the Kyūbi no Yoko can bring." I chuckled sinisterly to seal the deal and leant back with a perfectly innocent expression on my face, "you understand my situation now don't you?"

As the woman nodded vigorously I smiled sweetly at her, "thank you miss. Now if you tell anyone, I'll know~" I tapped my nose with a wink, "only high-ranking people know of this secret and I'm sure they won't be happy when their new weapon's secret is compromised yeah?" I turned away as the woman nodded vigorously again, and calmly walked into the ninja section of the library.

Once I was there though, I hurried to a secluded part of the library. I tucked myself in the corner of a pair of shelves and sunk to the ground shaking. Nausea swept over me as I thought about what I had just done, I had twisted someone's mind and used blackmail and threatening to get what I wanted. Was it the thing inside me or me, myself, that compelled me to do that? And to revel in the feeling it gave me too?

I shudder as a cold feeling passed over me, and flinched when the all-too-familiar voice crept into my mind.

What's wrong child? You have gotten what you wanted, as my chosen you are meant to use those lesser than you to get to your goals. Wrap their mortal minds around your finger, seize them, and use them for your gain.

A hissing laugh made me shiver even harder, 'get out of my mind you bastard!'

My child, you have done so well. Let some of the darkness take over you….You are meant to keep balance in this world, you can not do so if you aren't balanced yourself. There is too much goodness in your soul, just let yourself be corrupted by death, just a little bit, and everything will seem so much better.

I relaxed as the voice wrapped around me, just let the darkness take you over….just a little bit, everything will be fine….all will be fine…

I snarled and snapped my head back, 'I will never do that! Screw you asshole! I won't be your puppet, now fuck off!' I shoved the cold presence down and imagined locking it deep down inside of me…where it was dark and cold, the part of me that seemed to crack that little bit more…

"There you are."

I jumped, "holy shit!" Sasuke's slight laugh caught my attention and I scowled up at him as he stood above me with a smirk plastered on his face. "Don't scare a girl like that you asshole!" I shoved at his legs angrily. "What girl," he sneered, "all I see is some crazy bitch that.." He trailed off gazed at me with such scrutiny that I fidgeted slightly, "what you douche?"

"It happened again didn't it?" I froze and carefully looked up at Sasuke, "w-what do you mean?" I chuckled nervously and scratched my head, "what are you talking about yeah?" He scoffed and crouched down in front of me, "don't lie to me Alice."

My eyes widened in shock, that was one of the only times he had actually called me by my name. I hung my head and stared down at the dark carpet between my curled up knees, "yeah it did." I didn't look up as I felt Sasuke sit down opposite me, I did look up though, when he nudged me with his foot.

He was mimicking my position with his arms wrapped around his knees, "what did it say this time? Was it something to do with the terrified reception lady, or how you managed to get into a civilian restricted section?"

I nodded sullenly, "I-I don't even know if it was it or..me this time. I just thought I would bluff my way past by telling her the truth that I needed to learn things in the ninja section for my condition. Then one thing led to another and I was blackmailing her, and enjoying the feeling of power it gave me. I felt so..satisfied when I felt that woman shake in fear, because of me!" I was nearly crying now and I pressed my face against my kneecaps and began banging it softly against them.

My breath came harsher and harsher as I began to bang my face harder and faster, hoping the pain would distract me from the thought of twisting someone for my benefit.

"You know," began Sasuke, "one thing led to another? That sounded like you courted that lady to her bedroom."

I snorted and broke out into ragged chuckles, "who says courted anymore?" I peeked at Sasuke between my knees and watched as he put on a highly offended face, "why the great, last Uchiha of Konoha of course. Only those that are great and noble can court someone."

"So when are you going to court one of those ravishing girls that always seem to follow you yeah?" I uncurled myself and sat up on my knees, "maybe a certain bubblegum-haired girl hmm?"

Sasuke whacked me on the head as he stood up, "c'mon bitch, let's go find whatever the hell you're looking for."

I stood up and followed him out of the dark corner I had managed to tuck myself into. As we walked side by side through the bookshelves I quickly grasped his hand and smiled at him, "thanks Sasuke." I dropped his hand and turned my face away from him as we continued on.

Then I tried to ignore the tingly feeling that came from my hand or the sudden and foreign skip of my heart.

3rd Person P.O.V.

"What's Alice reading Sasuke-kun?" Sakura questioned the Uchiha as she stared at Alice who was reading a thick book and ignoring everyone around her.

"A book on fuinjutsu," sighed Sasuke as he broodily stared off into the distance. "She's been reading it since last night and she hasn't put it down at all."

"Is that jealousy I sense?" Teased Naruto as he nudged Sasuke, "jealous of a book Teme?" He yelped as Sasuke punched him in the arm, "shut up Dobe!"

The two looked up when a hand was thrust into Sasuke's face, "scroll please Blackey," demanded Alice as she still read the book.

"Why would I give you a scroll bitch?" Sasuke slapped her hand away, "I won't waste any of my equipment on something that you need. I bet it would be stupid anyway, coming from you."

Alice finally looked up from her book, "what climbed up your ass and died today Sunbeam?"

Naruto began to laugh at Sasuke, "pssh, she always gets you Teme!" He began to roll around on the ground as he laughed even louder, "she's got you whipped!"

"Do you even know what that means you retard!" Shouted Sakura as she hit Naruto when he rolled too close to her. She then rummaged in her ninja pouch, "take my one of mine Alice."

Alice smiled gratefully as she took the red lined scroll from Sakura's hand, "thanks Sakura!"

"If you don't mind me asking," said Sakura, "but what are you reading about Alice?" Said girl perked up, "well Hime there told you I was reading about fuinjutsu yeah?"

Sakura nodded hesitantly, "yes, but that is a highly advanced level of ninja arts that only a few people can understand, let alone use."

Alice hummed and thumbed through the book, "yes well I've been reading this basic fuinjutsu book, and I just finished it then so I can get started on something I think will-"

"You can't have finished that book yet!" Naruto poked at the book, "that must be at least four hundred pages and you only just got it last night 'tebayo!"

"Yes well I speed read," scoffed Alice, "and when I get into a book, I get into a book." She then tapped the cover of the book, "fuinjutsu is a use of symbols to basically write a code that changes a function of whatever you are placing it onto, it can even change the laws of physics!"

"What is physics?" Sakura scrunched her nose up, "I have never heard of such laws in the Konoha book of laws!"

Alice laughed nervously, "yes I guessed you wouldn't understand, but it doesn't matter. What matters is what I have discovered about the way of writing fuinjutsu itself!"

Alice plopped down on the ground in front of Team Seven and began rifling through the pages of the book. Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura waited for the girl to find whatever it was she needed, they jumped when Alice suddenly exclaimed triumphantly and slammed the book on the ground.

"See this here," Alice pointed at a swirling looking symbols that was inked into the middle of the page, "that is a balancing symbol. It is used in various occasions when you use seals, sometimes to keep the balance of the users' chakra as they push it into the seal. If it is a delicate seal, the balance symbol could be used to help control the chakra of someone with poor chakra control." She pointed at Naruto, "people with large chakra masses like Naruto would benefit from this, but! You can't have two balancing symbols on one seal since they would cancel each other out, and there isn't enough symbol dynamics to add another anyway. Though if you linked it to another parallel seal.." Alice trailed off as she used a brush dipped in ink to write something down on the scroll Sakura gave her.

"How do you know that?" Sasuke stared at the symbol that was shown in the book, "I can't tell that from here. How do you know it's a balancing seal? There isn't anything about it being one here."

"Well I read about it earlier," Alice turned her attention back to the balancing seal, "but I could tell what it was after I looked at it closely." She tapped near the centre of the seal, "this part here, look at it for me." Team Seven complied and leaned in to look at the circular centre, "I can't see anything," whined Naruto, "it's just meaningless swirls."

"Humph," Alice traced an unknown path through the swirls, "this here looks just like a symbol of the universal symbol of balance. It's a ying and yang," she showed the trio the ying and yang necklace she wore, "see!"

"I see nothing," Sasuke commented flatly as Sakura nodded in agreement, "there's nothing there Alice."

Alice growled before throwing her hands up in frustration, "whatever! The next step I realised is that symbols back in my..home land, was the primary foundation of language in the later years. What came after symbols, years after, was the written language. But that's not important, what's important is the 'language' that has been looked over for years. The concept has always been associated with magic, symbols have played a large part in magical beliefs, but not as much as spells and enchantments. Spells and enchantments though, are just a souped up version of lyrics, or poetry! Rhyming words into spells, or in this instance, into a seal like quality. If I combine symbols that I know have great importance, with basically lyrics. Oh my sweet Jashin, I have a new way of using fuinjutsu! An easier and better way of writing it! The best part is, I can write it with symbols only I know and in my home language. That means that no one can undo the seal I put up, not even a seal master!" She grinned at Team Seven, "how amazing is that?!"

"Uhhh," Naruto muttered uncertainly, "what?"

"I have no clue what you just talked about," agreed Sasuke. Alice turned hopeful eyes towards the brain of the team, but was disappointed when Sakura shook her head sadly, "I don't understand what you're talking about Alice."

Alice looked uncertain for a moment, "but it will work….I mean..it has to work! I just…" Her posture slumped, defeated, "why is nothing going right for me?"

"There, there," Naruto patted her arm nervously, "it'll be fine."

"No it won't," came Alice's muffled reply as she burrowed into her crossed arms, "I just want to go back to bed and sleep forever. Just forget I never existed as I disappear into nothingness!"

"Stop being melodramatic," Sasuke poked her in the arm, "just go try and write one or something. Just try it out and try not to explain it to us because it is confusing and I really couldn't care less." He pushed Alice towards the scroll, "go on and write with that…Where the hell did you get that brush and ink from Alice"

"Your place of course," Alice said offhandedly as she sat in front of the scroll, "it has your emblem and stuff on it."

Sure enough there was a small Uchiha fan on the end of the brush and inscribed into the glass of the inkwell. "You won't be getting it back though," commented Alice as she searched through her ninja pouch.

"Oh why's that?" Sasuke scowled at Alice as she pulled out a kunai from her pouch.

"Because I'm contaminating it," Alice flinched as she sliced her right index-finger finger. "Drip, drip, drop," Alice sung quietly as blood dripped into the inkwell, "Alice is a rain woman."

"Alice is insane!" Sakura grabbed out a roll of bandages and pulled Alice's hand towards her, "why would you do that?" Alice mumbled something before frowning at the inkwell, "you think that's enough blood?"

Sakura scoffed, "well you cut your finger pretty deeply idiot, you tell me." She tied off the bandage with a flourish, "at least my medical skills have gotten better. After reading those medical books for treating your burns, I have gotten a lot better!"

"I still think you should become a Iryo-nin," Alice poked at the ink with the middle finger on her right hand, "definitely have the control for it yeah." Sakura didn't answer as she looked over Alice's arms, "I take the bandages off your right arm since the burns are healed, and straight away you get a bandage on your finger! Ugghh I'm just mad that I couldn't heal your left arm, there is something funky going on about that arm."

"Just learn some medical jutsus~" Alice dipped the brush into the ink, "just do it Sakura~"

"You do it then Alice!"

"I don't have good enough chakra control."

"Well get good chakra control."

"Kakashi-sensei has been working on me and my chakra for a week now and it's still too hard to control."

"Less complaining and more action."

"Just stop Sakura."

"Hah! I got last word in!"

"Whatever." Alice carefully put the brush to the paper, "It is a wonder I remembered to add chakra to the ink with all your yapping."

Sakura held her punch since Alice seemed so focused on whatever she was drawing on the paper. She watched with rapt attention as Alice carefully drew a circle, one that had a dot in the centre and a perfectly straight line coming off it to the edge of the circle. Alice then painted a small symbol of the number 'go' (five), next to the line, she then went on to write unreadable words around the circumference of the circle.

"What does that say?" Sakura pointed at the foreign lettering around the circle, "is that from your home language?"

Alice nodded as she blew on the ink to dry it, "it is a simple saying that fits the purpose of this seal. It's a concealing seal that expands to a five metre radius, the point of that circle is that it indicates the radius and the five in your language to indicate the size of the radius. The lettering reads as 'hear no, see no, speak no.' Let's hope it works!" Alice smiled nervously at Sakura before beckoning Sasuke and Naruto closer, "you guys gotta be in the radius if you want to be concealed."

"I want to be invisible!" Chirped Naruto as he flung himself down next to Sakura, "hit me up!" Sasuke whacked him in the head as he walked by to stand next to Alice, "let's see your fail."

Alice ignored him and sliced her thumb, she didn't hear Sakura's groan of annoyance as she began to mould chakra. She channelled a whole heap of the stuff to her hand as she slammed her hand against the seal she had drawn out.

"ACTIVATE!"

Kakashi's eyes widened as chakra washed over him and his students-with the addition of Alice-disappeared in a cloud of white smoke. He jumped down from the tree he had hidden himself in and waited for the cloud of smoke to disperse, "that girl should've realised not to play around with fuinjutsu! It's a dangerous art when you don't know what you're doing! One night of study, one kami-damned night!"

Kakashi waited with bated breath as the large cloud of smoke disappeared and he found the group…

Gone.

HAHAHAHA SURPRISE BITCHES! HOPE YOU HAD FUN WITH THAT FUCKED UP AND CONFUSING CHAPTER, MWAHAHAHAHA!

Yes well, Alice is getting mind-raped by Shingami and Sasuke has a fucking touching moment with her to reassure she is not going all evil with corruption and shit. Ironic 'cos that's what happens to him.

She also fucks around with fuinjutsu, cliché, but necessary for this story. No one actually explains fuinjutsu in this series! It's kind of a tool Kishimoto uses when he's too lazy to explain some bullshit that happens in the story.

'Oh I gotta keep Sarutobi in one place so Orochimaru can kill him. Fuinjutsu it is! And I won't explain the concept behind it either than how many seals it is (I believe it is six sealed) and what it looks like. Have fun suckers.'

Why Kishimoto? Why?!

So I have screwed around with the theory, all we really know is that there are symbols used and some sort of language wrote around in circles. I'm pretty sure it isn't Japanese or anything so I'm going to use English in a lyrical way and just write it in circles around a symbol that has a meaning or some shit like that. I'm just winging it!

So I'm done here, bye!
