Last Time:

"The name is Yen Nhin and I'm all it takes to kick your ass."

"YOU LITTLE BITCH!"

"Excuse me, that's your name."

"I'M GONNA KILL YOU!"

"Bring it on." I said, getting into a fighting position.

"Fine."

She jumped down and got into an offensive position right away.

"Let's dance."

Now:

At once, I got into defensive position because the book said that Mai uses taijutsu most of the time.

In a flash, she threw a punch at the right side of my face and I leaned over to the left to evade it.

As soon as I did this, I realized I had made a mistake; her feet somehow flew out and kicked my left leg so I landed on the ground. In pain, I gritted my teeth and got back up. She was gloating, saying that I wasn't that tough after all.

(Change to 3rd Person POV)

Nhin got up, leaning heavily on her right leg. Her left leg seemed to be fractured. Mai struck again and went in to punch Nhin, but Nhin saw this, did a round off to the side while kicking Mai in the jaw.

This parry of attacks went on, until Nhin realized that she was nearing Kakashi's own battle.

Soon, Mai and Zabuza had Nhin and Kakashi back to back. A look at their faces and it was known that Mai and Zabuza were working together.

"You okay Nhin?" whispered Kakashi.

"Good as ever."

Suddenly, both Mai and Zabuza did a water jutsu, forcing both Nhin and Kakashi to jump into the water behind them.

Soon, they realized it was a trap, but it was too late, Zabuza had trapped them in his water prison!

(Naruto's POV)

NO! The guy has Kakashi-sensei and Nhin-sensei trapped! What are we going to do? How can we beat them now? Shit, I don't know what the do, the lady looks worse than sexy-no-jutsu, she's coming over here!

(3rd POV)

Mai made her way over to the group of four. She turned back and grinned at her accomplice.

"My, my, little children come out to play."

The genins slightly stiffened, but didn't show any more emotion.

"Speechless aren't we, do we need your mamma to come out and fix your manners?" said Mai in a mocking tone.

"Don't you dare mention my mom with your foul mouth" shouted Naruto.

Mai was angry, but she didn't show it, "Come on, do your worst." She said calmly.

"Sasuke!" shouted Naruto. The two brothers shared a look and Naruto suddenly yelled Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!

Fifteen clones were produced and together they charged at Mai. Mai, seeing this coming used a water jutsu to scatter the clones.

Naruto got pushed back, but he had an idea. "Sasuke, you can beat here with this!" and he threw a shadow shuriken to Sasuke.

(Nhin's POV)

I looked on, as Naruto threw a shadow shuriken to Sasuke. I must have looked worried, for Kakashi put a calming hand on my hand. Silently, I prayed that the boys would just run away, though I was sure they wouldn't. Stupid me for thinking I could take on a missing-nin. I should have stayed with the kids! Maybe I could have helped them escape!

Sasuke, caught the shadow shuriken, and then threw it. Mai easily caught it, but what we didn't see, was a second shuriken hidden in its shadow. It was coming straight at Zabuza!

I know that if he moves his hand, the jutsu is gone, but at the last second, he jumped over the last one! He couldn't look back, but we did, and the shuriken poofed back into Naruto! Naruto threw a kunai in midair and fell into the water. Zabuza having no choice, moved his hand away.

As soon as I was free, I went over to take care of the bitch.

(3rd POV)

Mai was trying to beat Sora and almost succeeded, when Nhin got there. Nhin took her by surprise and punched her, throwing her off, making her kunai miss Tazuna.

Mai quickly recovered and leap into the air above Nhin. Nhin had no where to go, so she quickly did a fire jutsu. Mai, seeing this coming, spun out of the way.

She quickly jumped down a good distance away.

"It's cheating to use jutsu in a taijutsu match." She said, shaking her finger.

Nhin didn't mind her any. She pulled out a shuriken, and fixed it with a string of chakra. She threw it and missed!

Just as Mai was going to laugh, Nhin pulled the shuriken back and it sliced a line on Mai's face.

Mai got angry again and pulled out a kunai and this action was copied by Nhin. They both ran in, kunai flashing and met in the middle.

Kunai locked in a furious battle neither surrendering.

"You won't win!" cried Mai.

"I will and it's all thanks to you." Said Nhin.

Suddenly, Nhin's let her kunai go, leaned down out of Mai's kunai's way, and used her "bad" leg to kick Mai's feet from under her.

Mai, exhausted, couldn't get back up. So she asked to only thing that came to her. "How?"

"You made the mistake of letting me get back up, but that's not a mistake I'll make." Stated Nhin as she pulled out a kunai.

Mai closed her eyes, ready for her death.

(Change to Nhin's POV)

I pulled out a kunai, ready to kill her, but as soon as I put that sharp blade against her throat, I couldn't. I couldn't get past my old life, my disgust of murder. Sure, fighting is one thing, but killing is completely different. My hand shook, I argued that she was a threat, but no matter, I couldn't. Even after all that training, I couldn't do it. It was wrong!

Suddenly, I heard a shout; I turned to see Naruto yelling at a hunter-nin. Seems like the boy had killed Zabuza.

I suddenly felt a shift, and Mai took the chance, kicking my out of the way, and taking off for the forest. I didn't chase after her. After all, who am I to determine the life and death of a person?

I stared at the forest wondering if my decision was right. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Kakashi approach.

"You did what your heart told you." He said, probably having sensed my feelings.

"I wonder if that was the right choice"

"I guess we'll have to just wait and see!" he said, smiling, trying to lighten the mood.

"I just have to feeling this will come back and bite me in the ass." I said, chuckling.

He laughed and we walked over to the others.

"Is everyone okay?" I asked, concerned.

"Yea… hold on, what's wrong with Kakashi-sensei?" said Sora.

I looked over just as Kakashi started swaying. I quickly went over and caught him as he collapse. "Silly man, using too much chakra" I berated him. "So who's going to carry him?" I asked, smiling at the others.

-Half a Day Later-:

After settling semi-conscious Kakashi down on a futon in Tazuna's home, I turned around to address the genin.

"How is everyone doing?"

"Fine." Came from Sasuke, who was sitting next to Naruto.

"Never better." Came from Naruto, who was dressing Sasuke's wounds.

"Could be worse." Came from Sora, who was leaning against the wall.

"That's good, go out and introduce yourselves to Tazuna-san's family."

They filed out, and I breathed out a sigh of relief. It could have gotten worse, but it's a good thing it didn't.

I looked over at Kakashi but he seemed fine. Just a little chakra exhaustion.

I leaned over him and reached up a hand to pull down his mask.

Suddenly, his hand shot up and grabbed my hand. "Luckily, I don't get scared easily." He smirked tiredly.

"Shush you, just trying to kiss you better." I teased.

"Go ahead." He said, pleading with his puppy eyes.

"But you just ruined the mood!" I teased some more.

"Ok, let's fix it!" he said, as he laid back down, and closed his eyes.

"Hmm…. Poor Kaka-koi, all injured, maybe I should kiss him better!"

No reaction

"I guess I need to get closer if I'm going to kiss him" I said, positioning myself over him.

I reached my hand up and pulled down his mask. Just as I was a hairs length away from touching his lips, I pulled back.

"Maybe not, I mean, I shouldn't take advantage of an unconscious man now!" I exclaimed, and made to get up.

As predicted, his hands shot up and pulled me down into a deep kiss.

Just as his hands started wandering, a knock at the door jolted us apart.

"Oi, can I come in?" asked Sora.

"Yes!" I said as I tidied up a bit.

The door slid open to show Sora. "Come and meet Tazuna-san's family now Nhin-sensei. Kakashi-sensei, you come too now that you are awake." She said, and left.

"Quit your grumbling Kaka, let's go" I said and moved to support him out to the family.

"Good to see you're up!" exclaimed Naruto to Kakashi.

"Shut up dobe." muttered Sasuke. Naruto looked angry but didn't comment.

"Anyways, this is my daughter" Tazuna pointed to a lady sitting to one side.

"And this is my grandson Inari." When he turned to point, I didn't see anyone.

"Where is Inari?" he looked at his daughter who shrugged.

"You're all going to die soon." Said a small voice from the door. Everyone turned over to see and a small boy was there.

"Inari! That's no way to speak to guests!" berated his mom.

"But it's true, Gato will kill them" he said, and walked up the stairs.

"Excuse him, he still misses….." said Inari's mom.

"Misses whom?" asked Naruto

"His father." Replied Tazuna and pointing to a picture with a corner ripped off.

"What…. Happened." Asked Sora softly.

"Well, one day….." said Tazuna and proceeded to tell us a story about Inari's adopted father who was a hero and was killed by Gato because of that.

"I see…" I said. Nothing more had to be said.

After an awkward silence, Inari's mother excused herself to make dinner and Tazuna left to check the bridge's plans.

"Nhin." Said Kakashi urgently "I'm sure that Zabuza and Mai will be visiting us again soon."

Ignoring the outbursts of the genin, I replied "Are you sure?"

"Very"

"Then we need to get to work!"

"Yes, but starting early tomorrow."

The rest of the day passed by uneventfully, disregarding some fights here and there between Sasuke and Naruto, until it was time to go to bed.

"Ano…"said Inari's mom.

"Yes?" I said.

"When Father said that a ninja team was bringing him home, I assumed there would be 3 people, and now I don't know how to split up the sleeping arrangements."

"Its okay, just tell me how much of everything you have and I'll split it up."

"Ok, there are three rooms. In the first, are my father and Inari on a double bed and an extra large futon that can fit two, in the second room are me and a single person futon, and the last room has a double person futon."

"Okay, let me think, Umm….. Sasuke and Naruto can share the double bed in Tazuna-san's room. Sora can't share with anyone but me, but then Kakashi would sleep in the same room as Inari's mom, and that's improper. So, Sora, you sleep in Inari's mother's room, and Kakashi and me will be in the last room."

"Wait a minute, then you are stuck with this pervert!" yelled Naruto.

"Don't worry about me, I'm sure he will be on his best behavior. Right?" I said, glaring at Kakashi.

"Ah…Yea, of course!" he said.

"So, little problem solved, good night everyone!" I said, and climbed upstairs.

I walked into the room and could hear Kakashi close the door behind him.

"It's just you and me now." He said as he wrapped his arms around me from behind.

"Yes, it is, isn't it, Good night Kakashi." I said as a got out of his hold and lay down.

"Aww….you wouldn't leave me like that would you? We got interrupted last time!" he said in a pleading tone while crouching over me.

"Kaka-koi, you're injured! You should be sleeping!"

"But I'm not remotely tired."

"Okay, the reason is it would be too weird to make out in another person's house okay?"

"You didn't seem to mind before."

"It was a spur of the moment thing…" I started, but didn't get to finish as he kissed me. Since I was lying down, he got on top and started to kiss my neck.

I unconsciously moaned. "Kakashi, we shouldn't be doing this." I whispered as I moved my arms up to push him off.

"You know you like it, and plus, you owe me." He said back, as he took both my wrists in one hand and pinned them down to the floor.

"Stop Kakashi, we really, can't do this here." I almost didn't get out because his other hand started to wander. I moaned and arched up into him. I tried to stop doing it, but my body was betraying me.

"It's ok."

"No really, stop. Stop. STOP." I said, as his hand went somewhere I was sure I didn't want it to be yet.

As soon as I yelled stop, Naruto burst in. He took one look at our compromising position and started yelling.

"SASUKE! COME HERE! HELP! KAKASHI-SENSEI IS TRYING TO RAPE NHIN-SENSEI!" he yelled, starting to freak out.

By this time, Kakashi and me were apart and were straightening out our clothing.

"What's going on here." Said Sora.

"Nothing, nothing, we were just, umm… wrestling? Yea, we were training." I said.

"Uh… sure." Sora said, I bit uncomfortable.

"What a load a crap!" yelled Naruto, and started to say more when Sasuke showed up and clamped a hand over his mouth.

"Shut up dobe." He said simply, before he dragged a kicking Naruto away. A couple of seconds later, Sora left.

We sat there in a bit of uncomfortable silence.

"Sorry about that." He said, breaking the silence.

"It's okay. Just sleep okay?" I leaned over to his ear, "and I'll repay you later." I said as I winked, back to my teasing self.

"Okay!" he said, and laid down next to me.

As soon as I was comfortable and drifting off, I felt his hands snake over hug me tight to his chest. Of course, I didn't mind. I snuggled into the body of the man that kept me warm and safe.

The Next Morning:

After a great night of sleep, Kakashi and I herded the genin through breakfast and into the woods.

"Today, we are going to go over tree climbing!" said Kakashi. I could see that Sasuke and Naruto were ready. I had taught them this before, but I was sure Sora would easily catch up, if not surpass them.

Having spaced out on the lecture, I came to when the genin were racing past me to get to the trees.

I looked up and saw Sasuke and Naruto racing up the tree, trying to beat each other. As predicted, Sora was up there right at the same point they stopped, the top of the tree.

"Get down here now!" Kakashi yelled, and soon the genin were on the ground.

"Okay, since you seem to all be good at this already, let's practice something else!" he said, and looked at me.

"I guess we'll go do water walking." I said.

We walked to a nearby stream and Kakashi explained the procedure.

Watching the boys' first attempts was hilarious. They would get a couple steps, and then push each other into the water. This was all while Sora was sitting on top of the middle of the river and meditating. How she did it with all the noise is the question of the century.

As Kakashi was watching, I decided to take a walk. I would have to redo this training at night.

Once I was a ways away from the river, I suddenly had a feeling that someone was behind me. I turned around to see but I suddenly felt dizzy. Then, I huge pain was shooting from behind my eyes and I could see images. Images of a man, images of a frightening amount of chakra, images of a baby in my arms. The pain was so huge, I couldn't stand, but as soon as I fell into the arms behind me, they stopped.

"What's wrong Nhin?"

"Nothing, a migraine, nothing more." I said, not knowing why I hadn't told him the truth.

He helped me up and when we started to head back, I looked behind, feeling those eyes again, though I couldn't sense anything. Suspiciously, I walked back to the river.

Later that day:

Sora, being herself, had almost completely mastered water walking. Sasuke and Naruto were… a bit behind. Right now during dinner, they kept stuffing themselves then barfing back up. Trust me, it wasn't a pretty sight. Kakashi and I were finished very quickly, so we were left to observe this.

"I will become Hokage!" shouted Naruto to Sasuke.

"There are no more heroes, they are all dead." Came from Inari who then walked up the stairs.

Angrily, Naruto got up to go after him, but we didn't stop him. We all know that Naruto wouldn't do anything stupid.

Later, when Naruto came down, he was considerably calmer. Without saying a word, he left.

I was suddenly caught in a vision of Naruto watching Inari from the door.

I shook it out of my head when I heard Kakashi ask if Naruto would be alright.

I nodded, I was sure he would be back soon.

A Few Weeks Later:

Days passed by pretty uneventfully. The night that Naruto left, he came back in a few hours, in a considerably better mood, with more determination to learn then ever.

All the genin and I soon mastered water walking and we were getting better situated to the town. We were surprised at the amount of poverty around. This made our determination to protect Tazuna rise.

Throughout the week, I kept getting visions of life in my head. I saw visions of a person that I couldn't tell if they were a boy or girl. I saw that person dead. I saw a dead Zabuza. Though I didn't like him that much, the sight of him dead beside the other person sickened me. I saw a huge snake with a man on it. I saw things that looked like black fire sweep across Sasuke's skin. I saw Naruto summon a huge frog. I saw Gaara, murdering many innocents. As much as I tried to forget them, they wouldn't leave my head. They came to me in dreams and suddenly in my day.

I wanted to tell Kakashi, but I couldn't. I don't know why, when I started speaking, my throat closed up and I started shaking.

I shook my thoughts out. This was probably just dreams and nightmares, the result of my worries.

Then I remembered, I wasn't from here, but, where was I from? I wracked my brain, but I couldn't remember my life before I was in Konoha. This thought worried me, what was happening?

Just when I was going to continue in my search for memories, Sasuke walked in, telling me that Naruto had never come back from training. Just as I was about to go find him, Sasuke told me he would look for him.

They didn't come back until later. Both came back with thoughtful looks, but neither wanted to share.

That night, as I snuggled with Kakashi, I couldn't help but think about what I was doing here. I knew this wasn't my world, but I was slowly losing all memory of my old world. Trust me, being with Kakashi was the best feeling in the world, but I couldn't help but think that I didn't belong here.

"What are you thinking about" came Kakashi's voice, startling me.

"Well… you know…. Nothing."

"Okay, you should rest, its getting late."

"I know, I know."

"Night"

"Night"

These thoughts could wait, for some reason, I suddenly felt extremely tired. I could feel myself drifting off into sleep.

Next Morning:

"Nhin, time to get up!" I heard someone say.

Sleepily, I opened my eyes and blinked a few times to get rid of the fuzziness.

"Huh?"

"Time to take Tazuna-san to the bridge."

"Ok ok, I'm up, I'm up."

After everyone was ready, we headed out. Luckily, the bridge was almost complete. In a few days, we could head home.

"Where's Naruto?" asked Sora.

"He's still tired out from training, I decided to leave him today." Replied Kakashi.

"Oh." And after, there was silence until we reached the bridge.

Stretched out over the bridge were the workers, all on the ground and injured.

Immediately, everyone excluding Tazuna was on defensive mode while he ran to the nearest person, us following closely.

"What happened?" Tazuna asked the man urgently.

"A man, a demon in the mist…cough… attacked us… cough." The man said, trying very hard to finish his sentence.

"That's enough mister, please, rest." Sora said.

Suddenly, horrendous laughter started up.

Kakashi's eyes narrowed and he uttered one word. "Zabuza."
