A/n- This is going to be the first in a series of flashbacks to the Older Rookie 9's past. They are not vital to The Pride of Konaha and can be ignored if you get annoyed by fluff. Next post Danzo will be dealt with and the main storyline will continue. I know this because it's halfway written. Unfortunately it's being stubborn about following my story line and getting out of my head and onto the computer. More random info at the end!
New A/N
Okay so I had so many reviewers voice concerns about how this chapter was jarring to the story I have moved it to it's own story. How the Hell did that Happen? Is the name and it will be added to when I particularly need some fluff. Pride continues in chapter 9.
