Extra Chapter 1
The Boiled Frog

The Thundertank roared down the dirt path in the direction that Viragor had pointed. Naruto sat at the front with Panthro and Cheetarah. "So you plan on explaining what happened with you?" the general asked finally.

"It's not easy to explain but… let's just say I was able to see some of my own… and I…" He lowered his head his mouth open trying to find the words. "I have some… issues to deal with it," the spiritfox finally said.

"Best not to pressure him General, I imagine he's had quite an experience." Cheetarah said, the fox didn't move just sighed. He raised his left hand which was wrapped in bandages he knew what was under black fur with red sharpened nails, he gripped it with is other hand it reminded him of the Yako he had fought.

'Could it be that feeling desires to kill or for revenge leads to turning into one?' he couldn't help but wonder.

"We're here," Panthro said and Naruto looked up to see a building it wasn't an enormous building but a slightly big one with a large sign that glowed and had a toad sitting in a pot that was bubbling, with the glowing words, 'The Boiled Toad!' Naruto, Cheetarah, Panthro, Lion-o, Tygra, Kit, Kat and Snarf all blinked 2 times then looked at each other.

"That's rather…" Tygra began.

"Kinda sort of…" Lion-o continued.

"Dark and creepy?" Kat finished, they all nodded.

"Still sounds interesting," Naruto said, "I mean a hotspring! Sounds like a good way to relax." He said.

"Your instincts show you that?" asked the tiger, folding his arms over his chest.

"Hmmmm not so much my instincts but… when I think of hotspring it seems like my body remembers it." The fox replied.

"And it remembers…?" the lion lord pressed.

"Warmth and water," was the reply along with a slight look of euphoria.

"Well you guys go in I'm gonna work on the tank." Panthro said, "No time for relaxing for me." And the brawny general turned to the tank to get to work.

"C'mon guys let's see what this hotspring is." Lion-o said and the other's nodded and went to discover a new experience.

-Inside the Boiled Toad-

They walked in, and were immediately struck with how the place was designed. It was a type of temple in a sense that it was brilliantly and intricately made. Yet it was done with simply with paper and wood that as stated before was intricate in design. There was a wooden podium, they walked up to it and heard some snoring. They blinked and turned to the source to see a brilliantly white frog, with a mess of white spiky hair laying on a bench snoring, it wore a strange type of white loincloth and an open vest. Naruto walked up and poked the frog, it grumbled then opened it's eyes and looked at him it's big froggy eyes widened then turned into a rather bored look Naruto noticed the frog bore strange markings on it's face that seemed distantly familiar, red lines that seemed to make a type of mask. "And what do you want boy?" He asked utterly unconcerned with the fact he was staring into a Spiritfoxes eyes.

"Uh we'd like to try the springs." Cheetarah said, the frog sat up at that and he looked at Cheetarah the moment he saw her he whistled.

"Ahhh I see… well, now Ms. is it all of you?" He asked getting off his chair and walking to the podium utterly ignoring the guys his eyes focused cheetah.

"Y-Yes," She said unnerved by those wide frog eyes.

"Very well let's see normally I charge 300 schillicks a person but for you missy I'll give you the low price of 200 schillicks." They all paled.

"200 is kinda pushing it isn't it?" Lion-o asked.

"Would you rather pay 300?" The frog asked his tone low and menacing.

"Uh… no," the lord said nervously.

"Then pay 200… got it?" the frog demanded.

"fine, ok guys," Naruto said and he turned to the others and they began to get their money out.

"You. Foxy, are you here for… a certain reason?" the albino amphibian asked.

"Such as?" asked the spiritfox turning his head slightly.

"Never mind," the frog said.

"Geeze when Viragor mentioned this place he made no mention of how steep the price is." Tygra mumbled aloud.

"You know Viragor?" the frog suddenly asked.

"Yeah he told us to come to this place…" Naruto confirmed then he paused, "You wouldn't happen to be Jiraiya would you?" he asked somewhat dreading the answer.

"Only name I can only have," the frog said, everybody's face fell, "Well since you know my old drinking buddy I'll give you a special discount but no lower than 50 schillicks it takes money to run this place on my own." They blinked then went to the frog Lion-o, Naruto and Cheetarah gave 75 schillicks while Tygra, Kat, and Kit gave 50. "Alright then wait here." He said and he walked into a room. They looked at each other.

"That's Jiraiya?" Lion-o began.

"Seems like a bit of a perv if you ask me," Tygra said.

"The way he was looking at me was creepy enough." Cheetarah said, "Felt like he was undressing me with his eyes." She admitted.

"Yeah but I think he won't try anything and even if he does it's all of us against him." The tiger said.

"Alright kids here you go." Said Jiraiya as he walked out of the room in each hand were a pile of… clothes? As he walked Naruto noticed that neither pile swayed or even shift as the frog walked forward. In fact they were quite solid like pillars. He handed one pile to Naruto who as soon as he grabbed it began to wobble, Tygra and Lion-o quickly grabbed the top most of the pile. Kat grabbed on and as they held it up they paled.

"What the-, what is this?" the lion lord asked, they were holding strips of cloth that was wide enough just to wrap around the waist.

"It's what you wear in the spring you wrap it around your waist, keeps you decent with the other bathers don't want people seeing your junk right?" The frog said, and he gave the second pile to Kit and Cheetarah.

"Is this a joke?" She asked as she held up her own, it was a top that was held together by string with two large pieces of cloth attached that would be just enough to hide her bosom. She noted how long the string was, then there was another one that seemed to be shaped like an undergarment except that there was only enough cloth on the front while the back was just string.

"Nope that's standard wear," said the frog all noted that his body had turned bright pink.

'Scumbag' was the singular thought that went through all of their minds but Tygra was the more insulted of them all. "Don't you have anything else there's no way she should wear that… that…" and as he looked at it his mind began to imagine her in the outfit and his train of thought went out the window. Naruto sighed and walked forward.

"Look that outfit is just ridiculous give her something better!" He said.

"Did you bring your own swimwear?" Jiraiya croaked there was a silence. "I thought so, deal with it, besides the women get their own side that's walled off so they have plenty of privacy." He said and he went to the guys and began to push them "Now go on men go, go, go, go!" the frog said and he shooed the boys into the room the blue curtain on the top. Before they could object he went and slammed the door in their face. "Now then should I show you how to put it on?" He asked Cheetarah.

"N-NO! I can figure it out myself." She said and she walked into the other curtained room.

"Well do you need help little one?" He asked Kit who blushed and shuffled her feet slightly.

"I'll take care of her thank you." Cheetarah said and she reappeared, grabbed Kit, pulled her inside and closed the door. The frog shrugged.

'I may be a pervert but I'm not that kind of pervert.' He thought morosely and he adjusted his fundoshi. 'Well not like I can't still get a good view but I gotta watch out for… her she'd give me some trouble.' And with that he went to the room he had just entered a few minutes ago.

-The Men's side-

Lion-o and Tygra stood at the edge of the hotspring looking around. "Gotta admit it's got a… homey look to it." Said the lion.

"Yeah," They noted the rock floors, the small tree with large bushes, the steaming water and the bamboo fence that was probably the barrier between the men and the women baths. They looked at the pool where Naruto and Kat already were the fox looking nervous while the kitten played in the pool uncaringly giggling as he did.

"So how's the water?" the tiger asked.

"It's awesome! It's so warm and I feel like all my aches and pains are wearing away!" Kat said.

"What aches and pains? You and your sister don't do anything to help just laze around letting us do all the work." Lion-o snapped angrily, Kat just stuck out his tongue peevishly. Naruto just gave a small chuckle. He was uncomfortable for a few reasons, one being that he couldn't shake off the fact that Jiraiya seemed to be hiding a greater strength than his appearance told, and second the 'swimwear' that he was wearing was revealing more than he wanted revealed. He had made sure to change and get in the spring first. The other two cats sunk in and they sighed, quickly feeling their aches and pains melting away just like Kat had said. They quickly submerged the rest of their bodies.

"Man this is great Panthro doesn't know what he's missing." Tygra said sliding his body down till only his neck and head remained above the steaming water. As Naruto sat there his eyes closed, relaxing, his ears quivered as they picked up a faint rustling. He opened his eyes and glanced up at the tree, it wasn't a normal tree rather spindly yet it had big branches and large bushels of trees. He looked at it then looked down again passing it off as his imagination.

-The Womens Side-

Cheetarah and Kit walked out their changing room. The cheetah tagged on her lower garments angrily. "Damn clothes keep hiking up on me," she grunted, Kit just smiled.

"Well I don't got much to show anyways," She said and she walked forward utterly nude and proud. Then Cheetarah grabbed her and using a towel she wrapped it around the kitten's torso.

"I'm gonna wrap you up just in case," Cheetarah said she also walked forward and saw it, the stone floor and the steaming hot pool of spring water. She was about to walk in when her ears pricked catching a splash. "Is someone there?" She asked, there was another splash and she turned to see someone standing and moving. "Whoa, whoa, whoa don't need to leave we're just gonna be over here." She looked at where the sound originated and saw a faint outline and saw a fairly humanoid form. "Hey there names Cheetarah what's yours." The outline shifted then it lowered itself.

"Um… I'd rather not talk about that please," The voice said wary and suspicious there was a silence that filled the pool only to be broken in by Kit who jumped in and gave a loud sigh of relief, "So uh… you come here often?" the voice said again and Cheetarah heard the water sloshing slightly.

"Oh no first time," Cheetarah said she stood at the water while Kit giggled and splashed about. She dipped a toe in, it was warm, she slid in and as she did she gave a long sigh. It was blissful, "Mmmm I might come back if it weren't for that perverted toad." She said stretching her arms.

"Heh yeah I brought a towel." Said the mysterious woman.

"Would you mind coming into the light? I'm no enemy of yours I can assure you." Cheetarah encouraged there was a slight pause then the sound shifting water.

"Again I'd rather not, sorry but uh… I have my reasons." The cheetah narrowed her eyes at that but didn't push. She just rested in the hot water enjoying the water seemingly massaging her shoulders, back and arms. As she relaxed into the water she suddenly heard shouting and rustling. She looked at the bamboo wall dividing the men and women. She got up and was about to go look when she heard screaming and looked up just in time to see Naruto, Tygra, and Lion-o fly right into the spring on the women's side.

-The Men's side, During Cheetarah's Conversation-

Naruto looked at the bush suspiciously during his little nap he had gotten a rather unneeded and unwanted imprinted instinct.

-Naruto's Vision-

He was looking at the back of a beautiful Spirit Fox was in a hotspring six tails waving in the air while she had a simple towel wrapped around her. At least he thought it was a woman, judging by the long hair. He couldn't exactly look around but he was coming closer to the 'woman' part of him was excited not because he was a perv but because he was excited to see a female of his species that was… relatively speaking younger.

He came closer then the 'woman' stood up and turned her head and he blanched as he saw the face of Tsunade! True she was younger but it was Tsunade that he was staring at. Part of him screamed 'I did not need to know! I was quite fine with thinking she was a random spirit fox!' and another part said, 'She was hot back then.' This thought came as her towel fell to reveal the bikini she was wearing. But he then realized she was shouting at something he turned and he saw a tree not unlike the one in the spring he was in now. Inside a bush… was Jiraiya!

-Reality-

Naruto stood up and stared at the bush both concerned and puzzled, if what he saw was right it meant that Jiraiya was very, very old! However if he was in that bush that meant he was peeping into the other side! He went to Tygra and Lion-o, "Hey guys," they turned to him and when they did their faces fell into a gape. "Listen I-," he then noticed their faces, "What?" Kat walked behind them and his face fell into a gape.

"Are you sure you're a fox and not a horse pretending to be one?" He asked, Naruto's face turned orange.

"C-can you guys focus on something other than my junk?" They looked up at his face but were still gaping, "Good grief listen I think that pervy toad is in that bush peeping on the girls." Naruto said pointing toward the tree. They looked at the tree their faces serious.

"How do you know that?" Lion-o asked.

"I heard something coming from that bush," the fox said quickly.

"Could be a monkey or something," Tygra countered.

"Oh yeah? How about a bet then?" Naruto challenged, the tiger opened his mouth then closed it and then he shook his head.

"No I think I'd lose that bet," He said.

"Wow Tygra actually admitting defeat, that's a victory anyways." Lion-o said earning a growl from Tygra.

"Anyway I'll get him, then you guys go and get ready to beat him stupid should be easy enough." Naruto said they nodded while Kat shook his head.

"Count me out," he said and he went back to swimming.

"Fine," growled the fox and he went to the bush. He walked underneath it looking closely, he smiled when he saw a toady toe poking out slightly and heard the slight perverted giggling of the toad. He looked at Lion-o giving him a thumbs up, the lion lord nodded and he cracked his knuckles while Tygra rotated his arm loosening them up. Naruto crouched, his tail wagging slightly then he sprang up into the tree pushing through the branches and right into the face of Jiraiya who had a pen in one hand and a notebook in the other. "Surprise mother-gagh!" a tongue shot out wrapping around Naruto's neck, lifted him up and out of the tree using his own momentum! He flew out and slammed into Tygra and Lion-o. The three fell into the water, spluttering.

"Why don't you three just leave an old man to his short fantasies eh?" The frog said.

"Bwargh! Ah! Dammit!" Naruto growled as he got up he glared at the tree hatefully. "Why that old-!" and he charged the tree again this time ramming into it powerfully. The tree shook and the frog fell out landing on it's head. Jiraiya gave a croak then stood up rubbing his head angrily.

"Disrespectful little fools!" he said dramatically, he then held up a froggy hand the palm splayed open. "You dare incur the wrath of the mighty and wise Jiraiya? A lesson in respect is in order!" he croaked.

"A lesson in respect coming from an old toad that likes to peep on women!" Lion-o shouted.

"Even the old admires the youth! It is not like you wouldn't be tempted to see the women in their undergarments is it not?" He said, this created a rather tense pause.

"W-We're not perverts like you!" Tygra said as they all began to advance on the toad.

"How… dare you!" The toad said and they all felt a rather ominous feeling emitting from the toad. "I am not a pervert!" he said and it seemed like the red markings on his face glowed. The other's gulped while Kat sighed, inhaled and stuck his head under the water to see how long he could hold his breath. "I… am a SUPER PERVERT! Nyah ha ha ha!" The toad cried aloud. This caused Naruto to fall to the ground.

"That doesn't exactly make it better." He said from the floor.

"Ah but if you are not perverts then why act so stung by my comments!? Only a pervert would deny being a pervert!" Jiraiya pointed out.

"And admitting your one just makes you a dirty old man, whose about to get his face pounded in!" Tygra said and he charged Lion-o beside him while Naruto pushed himself up powerfully spinning toward the toad. Jiraiya's tongue shot out wrapping around Tygra's fist and arm then his neck, while he grabbed Lion-o's hand then spun around hitting him with a body blow with his free hand. Then he threw both the tiger and lion up and over the bamboo wall just in time to face Naruto who was in the air. The frog's chest inflated and Naruto was bumped into the air over the bamboo wall! Giving a pleased croak the frog went back into his tree to watch the scene unfold.

"Puah!" Kat gasped as he brought his head up. He shook the water from his head and looked around, he scratched his head. "Where did everybody go?" He asked.

"Kyahhhhhhh!" He jumped as a shrill scream emerged from the women's side.

"W-What just happened!? Sis?!" And with that he was out of the water and heading for the women's side.

-Women's side of the bath-

Cheetara saw the bodies flying toward her and her mouth instinctively opened into a scream, but that's when Tygra crashed into her! She fell into the water her scream muffled hitting her head on the floor, she was stunned briefly as she heard another splash followed by a crunch. Cheetarah arose rubbing the back of her head while inhaling. She suddenly became aware of something on her chest. She looked down slowly half-afraid half-incensed by what she would find. Tygra's face was buried in her cleavage.

She didn't even bother to think. "Kyahhhhhhh!" and she slapped the dazed tiger sending him into the water! He landed on his back his head semi-submerged and as Cheetarah looked she saw a faint shadow of… she blushed and quickly looked away. She had turned to see Naruto rubbing his head and sitting up groaning. She then saw it, a female form moving toward the door, there was something bizarrely familiar about it. Cheetarah kept following the figure noting Lion-o on the ground his back arched a hand reaching for it. As the female shape paused to open the door the cheetah knew why. The rather large triangular ears, and the tail with a tip like a brush, it could only be… "A spiritfox?" she said aloud.

Anybody who was conscious caught this word, and it shuddered through their body. However the one hit the strongest by this was Naruto. Time slowed to a crawl as he turned his head, he saw the end of a pink brush-like tail with a maroon tip and the door that closed obstructing it from sight. He moved his feet sliding on the ground slightly as he tried to run his nails scraping the ground making small cuts as he was out of the water and running across the stone floor. He burst through the screen door, ignoring the angry, "Hey! I just replaced those!" and he looked around only to see again the tail leaving the room.

'Have to be faster!' he thought and he moved heading for the men's changing room he went through the open door and grabbed his sword of elements which was hidden under his clothes. He stilled himself, his body, his heart, and his mind. The sword of earth formed and he stood there touching the tip into the ground. He saw her footsteps, and he knew what to do he jutted his sword into the ground.

-Outside the Boiled Toad-

Panthro heard the commotion and he shook his head, "What on Third-Earth are they doing up there?" He asked himself suddenly he heard the door bang open and he turned to see… he blinked and rubbed his eyes for a second then looked again. Standing there was a rather tall pink furred spirit fox! He was caught off guard by her outfit, a type of skin tight one piece that was sleeveless and cut off near her legs. In one arm seemed to be a heavy jacket and on her forehead were goggles. Also she had long straight pink hair that went past her shoulders. Suddenly the ground shook and the earth suddenly rose up and surrounded her then it closed around her!

"That… that's Naruto's Sword of Earth power! Who is-nngh!?" He pulled out his nunchuck spinning it quickly as shards of earth rained on him. He looked to see her fist held forward the earth dome utterly destroyed. "She's strong!" he acknowledged, "Might be as strong as me," he said, he then raised his head to her. "I don't know who you are but someone would like very much to meet you," he said she looked at him and gritted her teeth and was about to run when suddenly the earth sprang up large chunks of it cutting off the left and right side of her! 'I hope he's not straining himself doing this…' the ex-general noted. He twirled his nunchuck once then slotted it behind him and raised his hands clenching them into fists. He held out a finger and gave a universal gesture, 'Bring it on' she clenched her teeth then lowered the clothes down and clenched her own hands and she got into a stance. Her arms were angled slightly showing her elbows and she raised a leg slightly which he noticed was toned to perfect athleticism signaling great use.

'I gotta watch her punches and her kicks then… at least till the other's get here… Also if she really is a spirit fox I gotta assume that she'll also have that imprinted instinct thing. Which means I'll be fighting the kid in a sense' he noted beginning to strategize his attacks. Even when Naruto was a child Panthro would admit, after a lot of convincing, that Naruto was a prodigy warrior at the age of 5 he knew why now but it didn't change the one single fact that Naruto was a better fighter than him. They stood there watching each other closely for even the faintest sign of weakness. Then she did something he never expected, she rocketed toward him her knee raised up and her arms held above her head elbows raised. Panthro raised his hand and arm, the hand catching the knee while the arm blocked the elbow's he was about to throw her when he sensed an attack and his head moved back to avoid the side knee from her leg!

"Clever girl," he said then he thrust his head forward and his dome slammed into her gut she flew back and landed on the ground one hand on her stomach while the other dug into the earth to slow herself down. She looked at him her eyes wide with surprise, "It'd be wise not to underestimate me." He announced.

"Yes I see that… not only were you able to block my first strike, but you sensed my second attack as well… I guess I can forget about holding back now," she said and she got into her stance again but Panthro sensed something different this time. There was a type of feeling emerging from her, a feeling he knew well. He then knew it wasn't a feeling but a desire, she wanted to win. He got back into his own stance and the two looked at each other. Then they both moved in at the same time, Panthro unleashing a volley of punches and low kicks while she moved with elbow slashes and knees. The two parried and struck each other flawlessly both reading each other correctly. Every now and then a blow would hit one or the other. Panthro had more powerful hits, but her attacks were fast and jarring. Eventually however the female was gaining the upper hand. The more she parried, the quicker her counters came and the more diverse they became.

'Tch the more she fights me the better she get's at countering my attacks! In that case time to get in-' he was about to move when he heard a voice.

"Panthro!" he jumped back and saw Naruto along with Lion-o and the other's standing at the door of the Boiled Toad. He smiled though he felt his jaw crack, "You ok?" The spiritfox asked.

"I'll be fine just some bruises," He said, though he wouldn't realize the various cuts on his body till later on. Naruto nodded then he looked at the pink and maroon spirit fox. She had turned and was staring at him with deep green eyes. He swallowed then he approached her, he stopped just in front of her. She was tall, taller than him even but not by much, her fur was mostly pink but there were a few accents where maroon fur shone. She blinked as she looked at him then she stepped back looking at him fearfully.

"Y-You're not a Yako are you?" He shook his head then he held up one hand which was holding the Sword of Elements. The Orb of Light and Orb of Earth shone brightly. He then closed his eyes and the sword began to transform into the Sword of Light. He opened his eyes and let the light shine revealing them both to each other. "T-This is impossible… unless… you must be from another tribe?" She asked.

"I, I don't know anything about my tribe or clan I was born in Thundera my mother died shortly afterward… I… thought I was the last of my kind to be honest." He said he lowered the sword which switched back into the Sword of Elements. "Do you mind if we talk a bit?" he asked.

"Uh… sure…" She said she then looked around pointedly, "But uh I'll have to flatten these first." She said, and she was about to move when he held up his hand.

"I can take care of that," he said and he held Sword of Elements up and closed his eyes, then it morphed into the Sword of Earth. He looked at it, "I decided to call this thing a Switch Axe," He said aloud, "It seems appropriate," He said.

"Switch Axe?" Tygra asked.

"Yeah, Right now this form is the axe," Naruto said he held up the weapon showing the blade which, if looked at, did indeed seem like the blade of an axe. "And by doing this," what he did next they didn't know but it caused the blade to slide revealing another blade that seemed larger and sharper while the other blade slide to the back effectively making it like a double-edged sword. He then lowered the blade to the ground and touched it the moment he did the walls sunk back down into the ground.

"Whoa I heard that there were kitsune that could use more than one element but I never thought I'd see it." The pink spirit fox said impressed.

"Honestly I don't know what my element is, that was done using the Sword of Elements." He said and it shrunk back down.

"You have the Sword of Elements? Impossible! It was lost a long time ago!" Sakura said.

"My mother had it when she came to Thundera I guess my father never told the other's that he took the sword with him." Naruto theorized.

"Your father?" She asked.

"Yes, Minato the former apprentice of Madara." She gawked at him.

"Y-You're-!?" she stammered.

"Come on let's move over there," He said pointing to a tree that was away from the group.

"You ok Naruto?" Lion-o asked.

"Yeah just… want a bit of privacy that's all." His bodyguard said, and the two spirit foxes walked away.

"I think he's feeling a bit nervous cause she's the first female he's actually seen," Panthro said, "Kid doesn't really know how to react." The lion lord thought of that and quickly understood he felt the same about Cheetarah if they should talk he'd prefer it to be alone.

Naruto and the pink fox stood at the tree Naruto leaning against it, "So what's your name?" He asked.

"My name is Sakura, I came from the villages on the mountains. I lived there along with my kin and parents but then one day the Yako found us and attacked us. My parents died protecting me… and they killed all the others as well. I began to wander about as my parents mentioned that their used to be other Villages of our kind. But all the ones I went to were devastated by the Yako or the Lizards. I tried to work at random villages and towns but my appearance drew a lot of attention. So I got some stuff to hide my appearance didn't want to get grabbed by a spy working for the Yako." She explained, he listened carefully noticing how her body moved subtly.

"I used to live in Thundera… my mother died shortly after I was born, I have no knowledge of her or my people. Then it was invaded by Mumm-ra and Madara, the only survivors were what you saw so now we're trying to find Mumm-ra and defeat him before he finds the Elemental Orbs, or the three stones of power." Naruto explained, "Your strength is impressive, would you mind lending it to us in our fight?" he asked, she looked down and closed her eyes.

"Sorry I can't… I'm… not strong enough to fight against such a foe," she said.

"I don't think so at all I think your strength is quite tremendous, more than what we need to fight against Mumm-ra." The blonde urged.

"So you trust your… friends then?" She asked.

"Yes," he replied bluntly.

"I wouldn't… no matter what they do, can't trust anybody when you're one of us." She stated, Naruto's gaze hardened at that.

"I trust them with my life they would never betray… not in a million years." He stated stubbornly.

"Well I hope your right, I hope they remain your friends and they don't stab you in the back like mine did." She said, "Well I think I'll get going," she said and she moved to her stuff while Naruto stood there not sure what to say. Then he also went back, he saw Sakura grabbing her stuff and putting them on, a heavy coat, the coat covered her arms and most of her body even her legs, she also slid on thick leather gloves that were fingerless. When she had her coat on she lowered the goggles and pulled up a good. If you looked at her you wouldn't know what she was as her clothes covered every inch of her body perfectly.

"Well see you around Sakura," He said.

"Maybe," she said and she walked away.

"I guess you tried to convince her to our side?" Panthro asked.

"Keyword being 'tried,'" Naruto said bitterly.

"She'll come around one day," Lion-o said, "She must have her reasons but they can change," he said confidently.

"Yeah, maybe…" Naruto said, 'but she said she was betrayed… if I was I wouldn't trust people quite so easily,' he thought, 'but that's something that Lion-o would never do.' He looked at the lion lord and nodded. "Nah you're right!" he said, and Lion-o smiled and nodded.

"So then whose gonna fix my door and floor?" Jiraiya said grumpily standing there with Kit and Kat in his froggy hands whose tails were erect and puffed and their clothes sloppily on.

"Uhhhhh…" there was a silence as they all looked at each other.

"What did you guys do now?" Panthro groaned.
