Sorry it as been taking me so long to update, but that's college for ya.

By the way, I do appreciate the reviews that you all leave, please don't review just to point out my spelling errors, it really gets on my nerves when you all do that.

(Btw, chapter 9 is being turned into a comic by AllySammaDammit on DeviantArt. Check out her profile to find the mini-comic).

Chapter 10, Finding your center.

"Where, am I?" Hinata asked, looking around her unfamiliar environment. She appeared to be in a type of stone hallway, with water up to her ankles.

'How did I get here?' the raven haired girl pondered.

"Hinata?" a familiar voice said from behind her.

The kunoichi spun around, coming face to face with "Naruto?"

"How did you get in here?" the blond asked, a puzzled look on his face.

"Wh-where are we?" Hinata stammered.

"This is place is inside my mind." Naruto replied, scratching his head, "Why are you here?"

"It's because of that jutsu you two just used." another voice explained. The two ninja turned their heads and spotted Reeve. "How did you get in here?"

"I'm using a mind-delve jutsu," Reeve explained, "I's quite practical. The only down side is that neither I nor the opponent can move."

"What are you doing in my head?" Naruto growled angrily.

"Quite frankly, you two have fainted, and the rest of us can't continue without you. So I am here to restore harmony." Reeve said sternly.

"And how are you going to do that?" Naruto inquired.

"Simple," Reeve walked behind Hinata, "Naruto, please come a little closer."

"Ooookaaayyy," The blond said, raising his eyebrow suspiciously. He took a step closer to Hinata.

"Look into each other's eyes," Reeve continued. The two followed his instructions.

"Now pucker up!" the raven haired boy said, giving Hinata a little nudge. This caused Hinata to move forward far enough that her lips met Naruto's.

Hina-Ruto's eyes flew open. Reeve was couching over her, his hand on her forehead.

"Welcome back to the real world!" Reeve smirked.

"WHY THE HELL DID YOU DO THAT?!" Hina-Ruto yelled in a feminine version of Naruto's voice.

"Well it worked, didn't it?" Reeve pointed out, then cleared his throat, "Now, moving on."

The earth-nin stood up and walked to the center of the training field. "Before you can use this jutsu in battle, there are a few important points to cover: First, who is in charge of the body movement. Second, who is in charge of managing chakra.

The small bit of training that we are are going to cover is going to focus on inner teamwork, the ability to effectively co-ordinate your actions with your partner while in merged form."

"So, how is this going to work?" Neji-ping asked.

"And how do we cancel this jutsu?" Kakashi-Gai asked in Kakashi's voice, "This guy is driving me insane."

"Nooo!" Gai's voice said, "My eternal rival! How can you wish to abandon this nexus of power?"

"You won't let me finish my book." Kakashi's voice answered.

"If you really want to cancel the jutsu, just form a rat seal and fluctuate your chakra." James answered.

Kakashi-Gai immediately released the jutsu and, in a puff of smoke, the two jonin were separated again.

"All who wish to continue," Reeve announced, "Please follow this simple exercise:" He held a small leaf in his hand. "Put the leaf on the palm of your hand and try to channel your chakra into it in order to make it levitate. The whole time, your body must be completely still."

"That sounds easy enough." Ping's voice said as Neji-ping picked up a leaf and began concentrating. Nothing happened. "Neji? Are you focusing our chakra?" Ping asked.

"I thought you were." Neji's female voice replied.

"You do it, you're more adept at chakra control!" Ping grumbled.

"Fine, I'll do it, you focus on keeping still." Neji comanded.

Slowly, the leaf began to levitate on the palm of her hand.

"You're doing very well," Reeve noted, "You can continue to to the next step: try co-ordinating a simple jutsu. The 'controller', the person in charge of movement, will make the signs while the 'channeler', the one in charge of chakra, will regulate the chakra levels. Everyone else, you know what to do."

As the day went on, the groups were having some trouble with training. While Neji-ping and Hina-ruto were doing moderately well, All-lee was having a lot of trouble, and their jutsu's blew up in their face quite a few times. Risa-Leah was doing moderately well.

Reeve and James went around, correcting errors in form.

"I think that wraps it up for today," Reeve announced after several hours of practice, "We can pick up tomorrow."

"Finally," Risa said, "I thought I would never end."

"That means we can finally get back to our normal selves." Neji sighed.

"Well, not quite yet." James interjected, "You are staying like that for the night."

"WHAT?!" the four fusions yelled in union.

"It is a simple exercise," Reeve explained, "It helps you tune yourselves to each other."

"You can't be serious," Ping growled, "Have you forgotten that some of us have male partners?"

"No, why?" the raven haired youth tilted his head.

"I, for one, do not want Neji staring at our body when we take a bath!" the irritable kunoichi seethed.

"Just tell him to close his eyes." the earth-nin shrugged.

There was a loud thud from behind everyone. Hina-ruto had fainted again.

"I guess Hinata is going to have a hard time." Leah sighed.

"Why?" Ally asked in puzzlement, "He invented the 'sexy'-jutsu, he should be used to a girl's body."

"It's Hinata I'm worried about." Neji said, shaking his hed, "But don't you have the same problem?"

"ALLY! I SWEAR I SHALL NOT LOOK UPPON YOU WHEN YOU TAKE A BATH!" All-lee yelled in Lee's voice, striking a triumphant pose.

"Lee! Don't worry! I don't mind!" Ally announced in response.

"Ally!" Lee cried.

"Lee!" Ally cheered back.

"Ally!"

"Lee!"

"Ally!"

"Lee!"

"You are aware that you are hugging yourself?" Ping said in an unnerved voice.

All-lee had wrapped her arms around herself in a one-person hug.

"Anyway, let's go home." Reeve sighed, walking over to the clearing, "I'll see you all tomorrow."

That's all for now! Hope you liked it.

Side note: when someone's voice is talking, it means that the fusion form is talking, but is using that voice.

Please review!
