There was a knock on the door accompanied by a shout, "Kyre-chan, Suko-kun!"

"What is it Anori?" Kyre asked after making a clone to open the door (she was too lazy to get up from her chair).

"Saku-kun sent me, he's out doing something or other," Anori said.

"And….why did he have to send you here?" Kyre asked.

"To tell you what Kimoshi-sama had said last night," Anori answered heading towards the couch.

"Explain away," Suko said taking another bite of cereal.

"Kimoshi-sama said that he wanted everyone out of the streets because of what happened a night or two ago," Anori said.

"Then why were the restaurants open?" Suko asked.

"How should I know?" Anori asked shrugging.

"Never-mind that," Kyre said, "What happened two nights ago?"

"What am I?" Anori asked, "A newspaper?"

"For now, yes," Kyre said getting up to make some coffee.

"Wait, could I have some too?!" Anori asked.

"You with caffeine?" Kyre asked, "I think not."

"But I like coffee!"

"Good for you."

"You're so mean…."

"Uh-huh."

"Can we get back to what happened?" Suko asked.

"Right, well….seems as though there are numerous rogues around here that can literally shape shift into anyone they see," Anori said.

"What?!" Suko and Kyre yelled.

"Don't worry, it's me…I'm not one of the rogues," Anori said.

"I would kill you either way…" Kyre said.

"Whatever," Anori sighed, "Anyway, if everyone stayed in their homes with the shutters closed, supposedly they could not be cloned, but seeing as we were outside…."

"There could be double us," Kyre said bluntly.

"Exactly," Anori said, "But here's the annoying part. They can use any ability that the people they are cloning can, so it's possible that I'm not the only person that has Jintaki here."

"Does that also mean they have a clone of our demons?" Kyre asked warily.

"Not clones of our demons…." Anori said biting her lip, "More like just the chakra of our demons, but that's still dangerous."

"And….do they act exactly the same as the original?" Kyre asked.

"Well, that's the helpful part," Anori said with a grin, "They can only act the same as their originals if they know the person well."

"Good, I'm sure they have no idea who we are then, we're safe," Kyre said.

"You know, Naruto once talked about meeting people like this…but they were way weaker, I think they were more like genin level…but by now they could be jonin level so they know Naruto well…..and Kiba-kun and even Hinata-chan," Anori said thoughtfully.

"I'd beat up the normal Naruto-baka anyway," Kyre said, "It's Kiba-kun and Hinata-chan I'm worried about, I hope that I don't see any of them in the Fire Village."

After a bit more chatting and fighting over coffee (Anori is very persistent) the trio went outside for a little air.

"Is it safe to be out here?" Suko asked.

"The rogues sleep during the day," Anori said, "They're night people, like bats."

Kyre smirked a little, "Oh wow."

Suko looked at the sky, "You know….it's really cloudy today…."

Kyre looked up too, "Oh, I didn't notice."

Anori frowned, "That's weird, it was sunny an hour ago."

"Weather is weird," Kyre said.

"Ya, but it's never done this before," Anori said, "The weather doesn't just randomly change naturally."

"Ya…well…." Suko mumbled.

"Ah, there you three are," said someone from behind Kyre.

All three of them turned in unison to see Kimoshi smiling at them, "What's up?"

"Hey Kimoshi-sama," Kyre said.

"Nothing much," Suko answered for them all, "But have you noticed the weird weather pattern?"

Kimoshi nodded, "It's probably those new rogues that have been around."

"Do you think they're up to something?" Anori asked.

Kimoshi shrugged, "They aren't from the strongest village so I'm not that worried about them, the only thing I'm worried about is that they can shape shift…"

Kyre nodded, "Well…do you mind if I take a look at what's going on?"

Kimoshi smiled, "Thought you might say that, sure, why not?"

"This isn't an official mission, right?" Kyre asked.

"Only if you want it to be," Kimoshi said.

"Nah," Kyre said, "No pressure when it's not a real mission."

"Is that how you felt when getting that rabid dog for Mr. Washita?"

"Ya pretty much," Kyre said.

"Well, I would have expected that…that dog runs away every other day….poor genin…." Kimoshi said with a slight smirk.

"Ha ha, very funny," Kyre said, "You know some of them got bitten by that thing?"

"I know," Kimoshi said, "it's just that we have an antidote for that now so we don't have to really worry about it anymore."

"Baka…" Kyre sighed.

"Don't call Kimoshi-sama a baka," Anori yelped.

Kimoshi laughed, "Ah, it's fine, I'm used to it by now."

"You're kidding right?" Anori said glaring at Kyre, "You call the Ryuukage 'baka' regularly?"

Kyre grinned, "What? He's like a dad to me; he and I do this all the time."

"I see….." Anori muttered.

"Well, I'm going to go check out these oh-so-mighty rogues," Kyre said and started to walk away.

"Wait," Kimoshi said.

"Hm?"

"Where were you and Suko during your week off?" Kimoshi asked, "I've been meaning to ask."

"Just doing some extra training in the mountains," Kyre said, "Why?'

"Just curious," Kimoshi said with another big smirk.

Kyre blushed, "Ah-man, you too?"

Kimoshi nodded.

"I'm out!" Kyre said walking at a fast pace towards the village gates.

Kimoshi and Anori laughed as Suko ran after her.

"I didn't know you were a fan too!" Anori exclaimed happily.

Kimoshi was wiping a tear of laughter from his eye, "They were destined to be together ever since Suko accidentally whammed into her when they were eight!"

"He whammed into her?!" Anori asked still laughing.

"Haha! Yup, it's the reason Kyre's a ninja too."

"Oh…" Anori said, "Maybe he shouldn't have whacked into her…."

Kimoshi laughed again, "Aw, it was bound to happen anyway."

"Hey….you two…." Said a painfully familiar voice.

Anori and Kimoshi turned quickly to see Kyre grinning an evil grin, "You two are really funny…."

"S-sorry Kyre-chan," Kimoshi said waving his hands in front of him innocently, "We were just having some fun."

"I see…." Said Kyre.

"Um, guys?" Suko said.

"What?" Kimoshi asked.

"I just came back to see if Anori wanted to come with us…." Suko said looking at Kyre confusedly, "What's Kyre-chan doing here? She's at the gates."

Kimoshi quickly whirled around to face Kyre and grabbed her throat, "Who are you?"

"K-Kyre! Let go you bastard!" she spat.

"That's not Kyre," Suko said, "She's never called you a bastard before."

Kyre came down the street to see what was taking Suko so long to get the hyper active nut case (a.k.a- Anori) when she saw herself being strangled by Kimoshi.

"Um…." She said when she got next to Suko, "What's going on?"

"Oh, Kyre-chan!" Suko said cheerfully, "Turns out that one of the shape shifters saw you and shifted into you!"

"So I shouldn't be worried that I'm seeing myself being strangled?" Kyre asked watching the scene.

"Not really," Suko said, "But if you watch Anori-chan, you'll probably kill her."

"Why?" Kyre asked turning to see Anori laughing on the ground, "I see….."

Then she felt an all too dark and familiar chakra close by. She looked at the Kyre being strangled and saw black and orange chakra start to form around her.

"Not clones of our demons….More like just the chakra of our demons."

Isn't that what Anori had said earlier? But if that fake Kyre couldn't handle a demon's chakra, that was even more dangerous, letting out that chakra at random could destroy this whole entire village.

"Kimoshi-sama! Let her go!" Kyre yelled.

Kimoshi turned around and dropped the other Kyre, "What's wrong?"

"Can't you see that chakra?!" Kyre growled.

Kimoshi turned to see that the other Kyre was totally encased in the black and orange chakra, "But….when did….?"

"No time to explain," Kyre said as she did a couple hand signs then ran to the other Kyre and tapped her on the shoulder, in an instant the chakra dispersed.

"When did you…?" Kimoshi muttered.

"When I was a genin, I needed some way to keep myself from letting the Hachibi out didn't I?" Kyre asked.

The other Kyre got up and stared at the real Kyre, "So….you're…."

Kyre whacked the fake on the head, "Don't act dumb, you may not be me but since you look and sound like me I don't want to sound dumb."

The fake Kyre hit the ground hard rubbing her head fitfully, "Ow, ow, ow…."

"That hurt?" Kyre asked, "Man you really are weak aren't you?"

The fake punched Kyre in the stomach, "Oof!"

After a second a drop of sweat ran down Kyre's head, "T-that's all you've got? That felt like a five year old hitting me. I thought you people were supposed to have the same abilities the person you copied. You're a disgrace to even try looking like me."

With that Kyre punched the fake in the stomach as well but with way more impact. The fake flew down the street stopping at a wall. After sliding down the wall to land of the ground the fake turned back into her original form, a young girl dressed in traditional grey ninja wear and a mask.

"It was a little girl," Suko said.

"Wow….a little girl trying to be like Kyre? That's scary," Anori said with a mock shiver.

"Shut up Anori," Kyre said as she started walking over to the girl.

Kimoshi walked with them, "We might be able to get some good information from her."

Kyre bent down to look the girl straight in the eye, "So," she said, "What are you up to, hm?"

The girl was still rubbing her head painfully, "Ow…."

"Answer me kid," Kyre said in a menacing voice.

The girl's eyes widened a little, "I-I-I…"

"Aw Kyre-chan, you're scaring her," Anori said with a pout.

"Why should I care?" Kyre asked still glaring at the girl.

Kimoshi put a hand on Kyre's shoulder, "Let me handle this, I think that after I talk to her I'll send you a message, this girl seems terrified of you."

Kyre smirked slightly, "Aren't all kids afraid of me?"

Anori sighed and dragged Kyre away with Suko following close behind, "Come on living nightmare for children, I'd like to go for a walk," she said dully.

"Let me go…" Kyre grumbled.

"Okay," Anori said and let go of Kyre's arm.

"Wonder what a little kid is doing being part of this little rogue thing…." Kyre wondered aloud.

"She's probably just going with the flow," Suko said.

"Pretty stupid flow," Kyre said rolling her eyes.

Anori laughed.

"Hey guys!" Saku called out from up the street.

Kyre and Suko waved while Anori ran to him and gave him a big hug.

"Hi!" she said happily.

Saku laughed, "Haha, what did I miss?"

"There was a second Kyre-chan," Suko said.

Saku cocked an eyebrow, "Shadow clone?"

"Nope," Kyre said, "Just one of those shape-shifter people."

"Really?' Saku asked, "One was here during the day time?"

"I'm sure that there are tons of them here during the day time, they're just…you know, shape shifted," Suko said.

"That's my theory too," Kyre said, "But I don't know everyone in the village, it's not like everyone comes up to me and says, "Hi! I'm going to tell you all about me!" It's just not natural for me."

"Obviously," Suko said, "You are violent, scary, and ---OW!"

Kyre rubbed her knuckles glaring at Suko, "You can shut up now."

"Anori-chan!" Some shouted.

The whole group looked up to see two blondies standing on one of the roofs.

"What the?" Kyre and Suko said together.

"Naruto? Naren-chan?" Anori asked surprised.
