(Ai POV)
You woke up on your own this time lucky for you and you were the first one up so just for kicks you decided to wake up naruto and lee. You went to naruto's room and flipped his bed over, causing him to land face first on the floor.

"Oh good morning naruto, i didnt see you there"

you said and almost smirked.

"What the hell was that for"

Naruto said rubbing the bruise on his head.

"Hurry up, we're going to go wake Lee up"

you said as you handed him a bucket of water. You left for your room then you heard a crash. Lee was up. Naruto came down with two bruises on his head. Sakura brought out breakfast. Everyone finished and then watched you. You looked at them and said

"what do you want, a bone?".

You were in a strange mood today for an unknown reason.

"You cant keep living without eating"

Naruto said. You got up and went out the door, Naruto and Lee following quickly behind. You arrived at the tournament arena. You were the first one up today so you walked into the battle area. Naruto and Lee ..... and Neji and Sakura? what were they doing here. You turned around to see that your next opponent was the Shikage himself. You were a bit shocked but assumed a battle stance. You didn't think that the Shikage was going to be in this tournament.

"May the best shinobi win"

he said with a smile. He instantly jumped back and used the Death style, Death Hand Jutsu. Skeletal hands came from the ground and tried to grab you, you dodged them but then he used death style, decay jutsu. He launched a wave of dark purple dust at you. You had no choice, you had to use one of your special jutsu. You concentrated chakra then said

"Aether Style, Black Hole Jutsu".

A black hole opened, sucking in all of the dust. You closed your hand and the black hole disappeared. You then said

"Aether style, Shooting Star Jutsu".

You fired beams of energy at the Shikage but he dodged them. You moved to the side and said

"Aether Style, Plasma Burst Jutsu".

Raw lightning like plasma was fired from your hand. You bit your hand and flung the blood forward then said

"Death style, Blood right shield"

A large skeletal shield came out of the ground and blocked the attack. Then he made more hand signs and said

"Death Style, Blood right barrage".

the shield broke down and the shards fired at you. you jumped back and used the correct hand sings.

"Death Style, tombstone jutsu".

A large tombstone came from the ground and blocked your enemies attack.

"I knew it, i knew you were her"

the Shikage said with a smirk then he added

"You might as well take off the cloth, i already know who you are".

You took the cloth off to reveal your white hair and red eyes. Hisan from the crowd seemed to realize you immediately. You were rather intimidated by the reaction so you threw a smoke bomb and disappeared. The Shikage went to the guard and told them to look for you.

You summoned the reaper and told him to give your team mates a note you wrote explaining your quick escape. You ran quickly through the graveyard. Ahead of you there were ruins of a village, burned down. You hid in there, catching your breath.

'I was foolish to use aether and death jutsu'

you thought to yourself as you started to realize the situation. You drew another scroll and used it to summon something but nothing happened. You smiled to yourself as you hid in the secret compartment in a small building. You nodded off a few times but heard walking through the ravaged town. You heard footsteps get closer to your secret compartment. The door opened and Hisan opened the door. You lashed at him with a short sword but he grabbed your hand and said

"don't worry, I'm on your side, follow me".
