Believe it or not... but I got ill again. Yeah, I really like getting sick and feel like I'm dying the next seconds. But well, here we are

A slightly grumpy Tayuya walked down the streets of Konohagakure in the middle of the day. Yato's grandma was taking care of him and his fever. She always treated him like a son. She headed to the Hokage Mansion to give report over her last mission. When she arrived the Godaime's Office, she met a pretty busy blonde, going through a quiet normal amount of paperwork. Shizune assisted her, as far as she was authorized to. „Uhm... Hey!? I guess." the redhead greeted, unsure how to start a comversation.

„Hey Tayuya, where did you leave your friend?" Tsunade asked interested.

„Moron got sick over night, so I'll have to give report on my own." Tayuya claimed.

„Ah, you mustn't little one, Asuma and Kurenai already gave theirs quiet detailed. Also they mentioned how you two helped them, so it's fine. But if I already can catch you solo, I have to tell you something!"

„Ermmmm... 'key?" she threw a sceptical look at the Hokage.

„The Civilian Council filed an application to me. They still don't trust you hundred percently. There is a criminal organization near one of the smaller, outter villages, in the Forrest Of Dawn. It's about a day away from here. It is said, that they have connections to Orochimaru. Luckily the heads are in the Bingo Book, noted as C-Nukenin. So it shouldn't be to hard for you. Not only is it a good preparation for your upcoming Chunin exams, it's a chance for you, to show, that you really belong to us!" Tsunade explained.

„But there's a rub, isn't it?" Tayuya asked.

„Maybe kinda... It's a secret mission for you, so are the orders of Danzo and the elders. So you will have to take the mission on your own, and it's not allowed for you, to talk to anybody about it and when I say anybody, I mean it!" the Godaime claryfied.

„Ok." Tayuya answered simply.

„You will head for it tomorrow!" Tsunade gave the order.

„Wow! I already got no sleep a few days ago! Gosh! I start hating to be a Kunoichi!" Tayuya cried.

xXx

Yato lied flat on his bed, just staring atop. Tomorrow was a special night, the night of the Northern Star was comming. For him it meant, that he was starting to take his revenge on The Ring Of The Guardians. Though he wasn't by aa hundred percent, he had no other chance, otherwise he would've to wait for another year. His Grandma took care of him, she always saw him more like a son, than a grandson. The doorbell rang and the older Ganan opened the door. „Hey sweety, how are you?", she asked nicrly, letting her in. Though Tayuya didn't officially live at the Ganans house, the elder woman already treated her as a cohabiter.

„Maaah, better don't ask me!" she spat annoyed „More interesting to know, how is our little Moron up there?"

„Not that good. Due to the special chakra he posseses, illnesses always hit him badly." she explained sorrowly.

„Special chakra?" Tayuya asked surprised. She thought, that she would know all about him, but she didn't, not by a little.

„Obviously, he didn't talk to you about it, did he?" the grandma asked.

„It never came to it, so..."

The elder sighed and started narrowing „Yato posses a special chakra, but it developed over the years, he didn't have it by birth. When you ask a normal Shinobi, how he would describe chakra, they would tell you, it feels like a blue energy, that flows through your body. When Yato was asked at the academy, how he woud describe chakra, he answered: 'A white glowing power, that is resting in his body and waits for the right moment to burst out. Nobody does exactly know, what he is containing -" the explaining Ganan got cut off.

„Some of the medicals said, it is a kind of virus, but I'd say, it is a demon, that posses me." Yato claryfied, he was standing on the stairs. He could follow the whole chat from his room and felt like he had to explain it. Tayuya and the elder Ganan paused and he went on „Many of the Nukenins I once fighted, when I was alone called me the „tailless Biju". But not only that. No human body on this world, would be able to carry such huge amounts of chakra with him. If anyone else would contain that amount of chakra, he would die within seconds. Not even the ontainers of Jinchurikis or member of the Uzumaki clan would be able to have such giantic reserves. The last time I was sick, was when I was a child. I was so sick, that I landed the intensive care at the hospital. Noone knew what was wrong with me. I told them I have a headeche, a very bad one. They checked my brain waves. none of their technical devices escalated. The needles spinnrd furiously, insane numbers were displayed. Even by that, normal humans would die by a brain wave number like that. So obviously, something is wrong with me..." he finallly ended his presentation.

„Tell me something, I don't know!" Tayuya replied jokingly, causing the eldery to kindly smile.

„Get back to be little one! We want you, to get healthy again." His grandma suggested.

xXx

It was early in the morning, when Tayuya secretly left the Hous of the Ganans. She headed to the Forrest Of Dawn. Yato realized it, and only a few seconds after she left, he also left, heading to the Shrine of the Guardians. He was dumb, because he just thought Tayuya went to her appartment for a random reason. He still felt sick, his fever hasn't recovered. When he arrived, an old mate was sitting at the shrine, meditating. „Had been aa while!" he said.

„I knew you would come, Yato!" the meditating figure gave back.

„Oh, wasn't it obvious enough, that I announced my revenge when I left the ring?" He got no answer. „You know, the way the Ring Of The Guardians wants to create peace is the wrong way!"

„It's not!" the figure yelled.

„Ben, I thought you were more clever, but obviously, they brainwashed you." Yato meant.

„Yato, my boy, you're a fool! Your naive vision of peace is not possible to keep up in a cruel world like ours. You're just childish!" Ben ranted. His eyes began to glow in a strong green, as the Guardian activated his secret Doujutsu.

„I hoped the One-Tomoed Guardian of the Southern Star. I hoped I mustn't do that. But well, show me your secret technique!" Yato was putting himself in his fighting stance, ready to attack. Bens Doujutsu finally stopped glowing, exposing the form of his eyes. A horizontal bar in the middle of his eyes, and a small triangle above, which was supposed to be his Tomoe. Yato leapt forward, a Kunai in his right hand, attempting to attack Ben, when the blade of the Kunai met a familiar sphere, covering the Ring Member. „I see, you're able to create a barrier with that eyes of yours."

„It is unbreakable. No jutsu ever could win against this special shield." Ben showed of.

xXx

Tayuya finally arrived the small village in the Forrest Of Dawn. She met the mayor of it, Shishio. „I guess you're Tayuya Northgate?" the sorrowed woman asked.

„Yes, I am!" Tayuya replied, surprised by the fact, that the leader of the village was a young woman. Maybe arround the beginnings of thirty. She had beautiful blue-curled, long hairs and wore a traditional, kimono-like costume.

„Let me introduce myself. I'm Shishio Himejiima. I care about this small village for about four years now. Umogakure was a very peaceful place once upon a time. Most of the people living here are older people, former ninjas in ordinary of Konoha. But last year we got attack from a group of criminals. They call themselves the Yabanhito-Organization. Since their attack, we have to pay tax to them. If we don't pay, they will kill a random person each month."

„I see. Are they ninjas or just barbarians?" Tayuya asked.

„From what I know, they don't have any ninja members, but I don't know all about their organization." the mayor answered.

„Ok, do they have a kind of headquarters?"

„Yes, the head Mizuho Okagazi lives a wooden villa westwards."

„Ok, no worries Himejiima-san, I'm on it! I will kick their fucking asses!" Tayuya spat, but went pale in her face when she realized, how she'd talked to a mayor. Worse than that, her name already was Himejiima*. The red-haired girl was totally embaressed. Mizuho giggled at the colorful diction. She wasn't used it. Tayuya scratched at the back of her head, still embaressed and now confused too.

„You're beautiful Tayuya-san and very funny too." Mizuho soothed her.

„Erm... Hehe..." the loudmouthy kunoichi didn't know what to say. „I guess I'm heading westwards then." The mayor pointed in the direction of the headquarters and Tayuya leapt off.

xXx

Two special ANBU members fulfilled a seal at the door. A seal with the same shape was written on Mikus forehead. While the medical-nins took care of her, she thought a lot about the events of the last days. Especially she asked herself, why Yato didn't simply kill her. Tsunade entered the sealed room. She took a seat in front of the Otoprincess. „If you're trying to talk to me, you'll make a big mistake, because I'm gonna kill you all!" Miku warned. One of the ANBU silently laughed under his mask.

„I don't think so, we've placed some seals here, that disables the use of chakra in this room. You may try it out..."

„Bullshit!" the girl with the special Hair-Kekkei Genkai shouted. She forced the chakra into her hair. She felt the flows of it, but when she tried to force any jutsus her attempts went unsucssful.

„You fought one of our Shinobi a day or two ago, is that right? Why did you attack him?" Tsunade sharply asked.

„I won't say anything!"

„Well, trust me if I say, when you won't talk to me, you'll talk to Inoichi and Ibiki!" the Godaime Hokage warned „So I ask one last time, why did you attack Yato and Tayuya?"

xXx

„Funny, if you think that no jutsu is able to break your barrier, because I bet it will." Yato took out four playing cards, all of them were aces. One of the cards settled by, touching Ben's cheek, landing a few feet behind him, stiffly stucked in the floor.

„And you're the owner of a Sharingan and a legendary Doujutsu from the Ring? You aren't able to aim right!" Ben lauged. Yato widely grinned. Two more aces hit the floor a few feet to Ben's right and left. „It's the strength of the Sharingan isn't it?" Now Ben also grinned. Yato's vision started to double, triple and all he could see became more blurry.

„It's too late for your Genjutsu, old friend!" Finally he threw his last card into the ground in front of him. He formed some hand seals. From the card beneath Yato shot two chains of Kanji, heading towards the other cards.

Fuinjutsu? Ben thought shocked. „Didn't know you're into sealing jutsus, but this won't help you!"

xXx

„You're very lucky, that Yato is a very nice fighter! Every other shinobi would've killed you, if he had the chance to." Tsunade explained.

„Ok! OK!" Miku snapped „I can't tell you much about Orochimaru. I was in his Southern Shelter. It was a very small compoud, with about twenty vessels. From what I know, there were three others, which were sent before me and my team. I can't tell you about them. Every second week Kabuto came to make any experiments with us. Lord Orochimaru never showed up. To be honest, I don't even know how he looks." The Otoprincess narrowed.

„Then maybe tell us about the others and a exact location of the compound." The Hokage suggested.

xXx

Tayuya located the little wooden mansion which was supposed to be the headquarter. She observed it for about three hours now, it was early noon, but nothing seemed to happen. She heard some man talking. Two man were patroulling in front of the compound. From what Tayuya could sense, they must be about fifty man. For her it wouldn't be a problem, if there was no ninja.

„Hmm, what's so interesting about there?" the voice of a stranger asked. Tayuyas eyes widned in shock. She couldn't sense any chakra from behind her a second ago. On instinct she started to form some hand seals, but got interupted, when the man took her at the back of her collar and lifted her from the ground. A very tall, broad and muscular man was looking her. „A spy?" The first time in her life, Tayuya was jealous about one of Yato's jutsus. If she could, she would create a chakra clone through a Sharingan and transfer herself into it. From her actual position it was not the best situation to fight.

„Not a spy! Your violater!" Tayuya snapped. She formed some one-handed seals Yato taught her. Then she shot a stream of lava from her mouth. The man let off of her and screamed in pain. Due to the fact, that the man was topless, his skin gained some third degree burns and this was a weaker version of this jutsu. Tayuya was finally standing free on her feet. The man fell to the floor. Out of nowhere a fist hit Tayuya face fron the right. The firm strike sent her flying through three tree, when she finally banged back first against a tree. At the impact, she coughed a small amount of blood out. Drained in pain, she managed to get up again, when she saw three of that muscular men in front of her, surrounded by the rest of the barbarians. One of the tall men seemed to be, the one she hit some moments ago, she could clearly see the burns on his right upper chest and shoulder. Not good at all!

„Who the hell are you and what do you want from us?!" the burned man asked.

Tayuya formed some hand seals, but one of the man reacted damn fast and sent his fist into Tayuya stomach. A bigger amount of blood came out of her. Luckily for she came through will all seals and she digged herself into the ground in less than a second. These men are damn fast, what am I supposed to do? Obviously the three of them are ninjas, I could sense their chakra concentration.

Before she could catch any other thoughts, two hands grabed her from above „Impossible!" when she got lifted of the ground again.

„You really are the worst spy in the world!" One of the three tall figure said, punching her into the face, after she felt unconscious.

xXx

As the Fuinjutsu from Yato finished, Ben shot forward, a Kunai in his hand, in less than a second, Yato brought out his Katana from the right sleve, knowing what the clueless Ben was intending to do. Ben streightly ran into Yatos blade, wondering what happend. „What?!" Ben asked, as the blood started to flow out of his mouth.

„You're not attentive enoigh! This was always one of your weaknesses. You think I used that seal before just for fun?" Yato paused, Ben cringed in pain „I used a seal jutsu, that stops the chakra flow for special Doujutsu. You weren't able to cast your barrier, obviously!" Suddenly an intense pain rose im Yatos eyes and without his intention his Mangekyou Sharingan activated „What the-" he started, when the picture of an unconscious, red-haired Kunoichi flashed in his eyes. For a matter of fact, he was done with his job, Ben was dead. He leapt of and headed toward the Forrest again. In lightning speed he jumped through the trees. He didn't know where he was going, his eyes simply led him.

He arrived the compound of the little barbarian organisation at the evening. After four hours of travel - no human ever, and not even the fastest shinobi was able to travel such a distance in this time - he lied on the same tree Tayuya was spying earlier. He sensed a chakra signature from behind him and two others in the mansion.

„Another spy?!" a man with burned chest asked. Yato disappeared suddenly, leaving the guard in confusion. A firm kick from above hit the head of the tall man. Shidori! Yato shouted and rammed the blue-flashing chakra ball into the mans chest. Lucky for the Ganan, he killed him almost silently, so the chakra signatures from the mansion didn't move. He formed some hand seals and vanished in a stream of wind.

xXx

Tayuya finally became conscious again, finding herself tied up on a wooden seat in a basement. The two muscular men stood in front of her. „Good morning, little crotchsucker!" the one man said.

„I'm already fighting a while, but this is kind of the worst insult someone ever threw at me!" she countered, her vision still slightly blurry. When the other man was sending his fist in the direction of Tayuyas face, he got blocked as Yato appeared out of nowhere.

„Don't you dare touching her!" Yatos expression was even frightening Tayuya. Both men bent down and got cut by seemingly invisible blade, when their bodies divided at the height of the belly button. Yatos eyes were white with two pale-purple spinning things in it. Tayuya haven't seen this before, but assumed that this must be his Ganan Kekkei Genkai. She was impressed by the power of it, but on the other hand she was annoyed, because she got into the situation, that she must get rescued. A uncomfortable wave of silence went through the room. A tear flowed down Yato's cheek. „Are you ok?" The Ganan asked.

„Uhm... g-guess could be b-better" Tayuya stammered.

„If this is over, I'll understand if you want no truck with me." Yato said in disgrace.

„To be honest, I find that technique pretty cool! You're expression was the thing that scared me more." she explained.

„What are you doin' in here, and why are you on a mission without me?" he asked sharply, his voice filled with anger.

„At first, don't be like that! I'm not a little girl you have to care about twenty-four-seven, for fuck sake. They caught me by surprise, I could easily manage to escape from here, when I got conscious again. And second, it was the wish of the civilian council, they don't trusr and still think I'm the tool of Orochimaru, so Tsunade offered me to come here and help out the small village." Tayuya clarified.

„I see..." he paused for a moment „Then, I'll leave the rest up to you." Again, Yato vanished in a stream of wind.

„Damn, you could've untie me at least, Moron!" The loudmouthy girl cursed. Unluckily she was to loud and one of the barbarians heard it. He ran down the stairs and was shocked at the sight of his aparted companions. He pulled out his sword and brought his blade at Tayuyas chin, ready to cut her throat.

„What did you do to 'em?" he asked.

„Well... it's not what it looks like, he he" Tayuya desperately laughed, while she was doing one-handed signs and concentrate her chakra. „Iiiiiiiit's a Genjutsu, yes, clearly a Genjutsu, someone tries to trick you from outside, hehe..."

„Don't take me for a fool, bitch!" the man warned her.

Tayuya took a deep breath „Kaboom!" she exploded into small lava missles and perforated the enemy. The little blops of lava then began to move and puzzled together in the middle of the room. Tayuya was finally free from any ties, standing in the middle of the room and lauded herself „Well, that was actually pretty cool!" she reached for her flute and went upwards with a fat grin on he face. She was proud of the fact, that she invented a situational jutsu. She banged through the door, getting all the attention she wanted „Hey, you god damn little fools, I wrote a song for you, let me play it!" before anyone of the criminals could react she played a special tune, casting her Genjutsu through the whole mansion. „Easy!" She was searching for their boss. She finally found him in the attic, sitting at a wooden table. He obviously was counting all the Ryou he stole from the villagers. She cancelled the Genjutsu on him, taking him by his coattail.

„Don't kill me, please! I'm sorry for whar I did!" he begged. Tayuya ignored him; walking downstairs. All of the gangs men were still paralyzed by Tayuyas Genjutsu, not doing any movement.

„Take a close look!" she said, with an evil voice. She brought her flute to her lips, took a deep breath and played a loud, ear-piercing tone. Painful screams ran through the wooden mansion. All of the men were took down by once and from all of their ears flowed blood. The man, who was supposed to be the boss of the little organization, had a overdone, odd expression in his face, thanks to the shrillness of Tayuyas tone.

xXx

„Thank you, Tayuya-san. You've saved our village from terrorism!" Shishio thanked.

„No problem at all!" Tayuya showed a thumb up. „I'll head back to Konoha now and give report about this. And I have to punish somebody for something!" Tayuya explained.

„Your boyfriend?" Shishio Himejima asked. By the tone Tayuya said that, she thought it could be a boyfriend. Tayuya blushed.

„Nononono!" she kind of paniced. „He's not my boyfriend, he's just a moron!" the former Otonin pointed out.

„That's sweet, Tayuya-san!" the mayor said. Tayuya blushed even more. „Ok, then have a nice way home and thank you, for all you did for us!" Shishio saw her off, leaning forward in a thanking pose. Tayuya nodded and leapt off.

Well, I guess this was a chapter, pretty full of action. Time for a filler next time xDDDDDDD

Ok, jokes aside, hoped you enjoyed it, leave me all your tipps, comments, reviews etc. and help me to get better ^^
Hope to see you in the next chapter folks!
