Yo people! I'm sorry that I threatened you all to review. It was unfair but I am truly amazed how you all reviewed that much! It's just that I've been stressed a lot lately and not getting enough sleep everyday. :/ But thank you very much, I really appreciate it. I really do! I'm also going to answer people's questions from now on. Only in the reviews of course. ;P I will only answer the current ones just so you know.

My Response

Guest: Well if you are asking for my age, then yes. I am 12 but I will turn 13 in two months, so I guess I should call myself a thirteen-year-old, but I always like to be precise when it comes to age...I hope that helps.

Suzume Batchii Taichi: It is already explained above. I am stressed, unhappy, and upset. I don't like how parents force you to do something when you don't like it at all. My grades are okay but I am lacking in Social Studies which is making my GPA(Grade Point Average) into a lower score. And you know what? I GOT A FUCKING A C FOR CHRIST'S SAKE! Now I'm in tutoring classes and homework helps and I'm not enjoying life very much.

I encourage you to ask questions, not that you have to, just review, is all.

Warning: OOC, AU, Sakura/fangirl bashing all except Ino, and Uchiha Massacre

Pairing: Sasuke/Kagome, Neji/Kagome(one-sided), Itachi/Kagome(one-sided), Naruto/Hinata

Disclaimer: If I own them, I would have made Sasuke stay in Konoha, Sasuke/Kagome would be real, or I would turn Naruto into a yaoi manga! Whoot! SasuNaru for life!

Chapter 9: New Powers

Kagome POV:

I woke up and I was still on the couch. It took me a few seconds to process my brain back to reality; it seems I had slept all the way till...OH NO! IT'S ALREADY MONDAY HOLY CRAP! I could've sworn that yesterday was a Saturday! Or...could I have been sleeping the entire Sunday? Well my body is kind of sore...

I then remembered the training I had. It was a dream, but maybe I could actually use them in real life. I mean, I could've dreamt it out of nowhere like I usually do. Oh well, I better hurry.

I looked at the time. It was already 6:53! Okay skip breakfast...breakfast which my mom always made...

I then darkened, remembered how brutal my mom's body was shredded, by the curse... These memories shall remind me of my goals: finding my brother and breaking the curse. The curse breaking comes first...so I shall aim for that, for now at least. I shall destroy that curse forever! And when I find Souta, I shall break his curse even if it takes my life.

Now thinking of Souta, I really miss him. He would make all these weapons for me and the family as well. His innocence...that shall be tainted by that damned curse. I scowled at the thought of the curse but lightened a bit afterwards.

I ran out the door and sped through the roofs as it was the fastest way to get to the academy. When I went inside the academy building, I saw Naruto and Hinata walking together to our homeroom. I was going to speed up to catch up with them but decided not to, it's just today wasn't my day. My family's death is still clinging onto me and I can't help but to moarn for them. I guess I'll just be alone for the rest of the day.

Normal POV:

Naruto and Hinata were walking down the hall to their homerooms until they felt as if there was someone close to them. They turned around to see...Kagome!

"Hi Kagome-chan.", Hinata greeted still as always, shyly.

"Yo Kags! What's up? Oh wait...", Naruto paused.

Hinata looked both at Kagome and Naruto for a few times, not knowing what's going on between them.

'Ugh Kagome, answer them dammit. Just because you're depressed doesn't mean you have to be rude about it!', Kagome screamed in her mind.

Kagome looked up and forced a smile.

"Hey guys..", Kagome only to managed to spill.

Both Naruto and Hinata shot her worried looks. Kagome just forced another smile and said:

"Let's go to homeroom now, you don't want to have Iruka-sensei yell his head off, r-right?"

The trio walked to their homeroom and sat at their assigned seats. Fortunately for Naruto, Kagome sits next to him so he can try to console the poor girl. He absolutely hated when his friend is suffering in deep depression. Now that it reminds him. He heard the Uchiha Clan was massacred. He turned around to see yet another friend(AN: Naruto ended up making friend/rival with Sasuke), Sasuke, going under depression as well.

Naruto can't take it anymore. He wanted them to be the way they used to be, happy and normal. But what can he do? He had never lost anyone in death before. His parents were already dead by the time he was born. The best he can do, was to console them and give them time to think.

"Hey Kagome-chan, it's going to be alright. I know that you are upset that your family's gone but cheer up. You know that I'm there for you!", Naruto surprisingly comforted her quietly.

Kagome looked up from the desk. Her eyes were dark except her glass eye that twinkled in the light, they were as if lifeless.

"C'mon Kagome! Losing a family must be really harsh but don't stay in the dark hole forever! I'm sure you have a specific goal so you should focus on that and...", Naruto was suddenly cut off when he felt a pair of arms wrapped around his figure.

Kagome hugged him and tightened around him, head on his shoulder. Tears were already streaming onto his jacket making a dark spot. She lifted her and wiped her puffy eyes.

"Naruto, you have to understand that I just lost my family recently. I am trying my hardest to forget it but I can't, at least not right now...", she looked down with her eyes still red.

"I-I'm sorry. I just...", he again got cut off by Kagome.

"It's okay. It's not like you have experienced this so I wouldn't have expected for you to understand my sorrows, but I know you are a great friend.", Kagome assured and gave him a GENUINE smile.

Naruto sensed her smile was natural, not forced, brightened the mood. He smiled cheerfully for her and went back to the old hyper Naruto we love.

"Okay Gome-chan! By tomorrow, I want to see the ol' happy Kags I know of!", Naruto pointed at her with fire burning in his eyes comedically.

He yelled that loud that her brought all the class attention to him and Kagome. Kagome, not being comfortable with the attention, blushed, but was still thinking dark thoughts.

Sasuke's POV:

I heard the dobe scream so loud saying something like seeing happy kags or something. Whatever...now. I must think of ways to torture Itachi for what he has done! I can't simply forgive him!

Then Iruka-sensei finally came in and went through about what we learned. I paid no attention to him.

Now something got me wondering. I remembered one of the nursess gossiped that another family was killed too but it was said there were only one survivor, like me. But they also said it was the family that was recently moved into Konoha. Could it be Kagome's?

Back to Kagome's POV:

I was still depressed of my family's death. Images and reminders sturred around in my mind that I try to push out.

Naruto was right. I have to push out the bad thoughts and work to move on. I still have a goal to accomplish so I should put my depression aside.

The bell rang and the class went to their next period class. I had Suzuki-sensei's...oh great. I don't have any chakra anymore. What should I do?

'Hey! Don't you dare forget about the training! And don't think it was a mere dream!', screeched the Satan Soul.

'So it was never a random dream after all. So I do have my powers! I must recall all the things Satan Soul had taught me!', I told myself.

I remembered that I mastered two offensive attacks and one defensive. They were..'Devil's Call', 'Dragon Fist', and 'Black Barrier'. Okay, so I start out easy.

I remembered all the instructions and the consequences that Satan Soul had told.

I summarized everything in my head and went into class. I walked to my seat where Sasuke and Sakura was. Sakura was trying to catch Sasuke's attention and clinging onto him at the same time, the usual. But what the fuck? Does Sakura not know that Sasuke needs some space? Does she even know that his whole family was killed...too?

"Hey Haruno-san! Could you please scoot over? You are seating on my seat.", I asked kindly not-really though.

She glared at me as hard as she could. I don't know why she hates me and her hating me is turning my day worse and worse. Sakura moved bitchily and hmphed femininely. I took my seat and it seems that Sasuke loosened a bit after Sakura's been seperated by me. So I guess he went calm.

Sasuke and I didn't talk the whole time in ninjutsu class, well it was a class so we had to listen, but I understand the silence. We share the same pain, the loss of a family. It's just that the reasons why they are killed are different, at least I think so.

So pretty much the rest of the classes were like that, kind of boring actually, until lunch. Naruto, Hinata, Sasuke, and I all went to our usual spot, which were now by the swing. We got our lunches and started to eat.

We ate our usuals and Naruto practically ate half of mine, well it didn't matter, since I lost most of my appetite.

Normal POV:

Sasuke noticed how uncheerful and untalkitive Kagome was. She was down just like him. Could she suffer the same loss as him? Possibly though. If she did, she would be able to understand his pain and she would stay by his side forever. Just the two of them reviving the clan after when he gets his revenge toward his older brother. That brought him his little happiness in his sad world.

Lunch ended and they went back to class. Classes were just the usual and the day ended quite quickly.

Kagome walked home from the academy with Naruto this time. They stayed at Naruto's part of the apartment and finished the homework quickly.

As she went to out of Naurto's front door saying goodbye, she saw the Hokage standing by the door waiting for her.

TBC

Well that's the end of this chapter. It's kind of stupid in this chapter since it is still developing suspense and haven't climaxed. It will climax at the next chapter so don't worry! But I kind of feel like I am just throwing in random stuff into the chapter with no chronological order, so I feel like my writing haven't been improving. And too many typos.

This chapter seems kind of short so... Hey I was lazy to go climax! :/

I am still planning on keeping the rule for the review thing and the threat too for fun, although I do kind of feel shameful, but if it'd going to help me get more reviews than what the heck?

5 or less reviews=one year till I update!

I'm out~~~~~~~~
