I apologize if I missed anyone!
P.S. I just wanted to apologize that in my last chapter I spelled Roka's name wrong, my muse should have told me but she overlooked the fact. Sorry if I confused anyone!!!
Kagome looked at the group she was traveling with and smiled as she remembered what had happened just before they left Kohana. She never thought they would have so many questions.
~Flashback~
"You mean you're really from the village hidden in the clouds?" Naruto asked.
Kagome nodded her head and replied, "Yes, Jiraiya arrived 6 days ago asking for our help in locating Sauske Uchiha."
"Can you really track him down?" Sakura asked.
Kenji snorted replying, "Of course we can, were the best tracking team in our village."
"What makes you so confident that you can locate him when we have been unsuccessful? We have more than one clan that has tracking abilities and even their best could not locate him," Neji informed him.
Kenji opened his mouth to retort but Rako beat him to it, "Because Kagome-sama has taught us a special jutsu she created. This jutsu has never failed and is highly sought after from other villages. It is more enhanced then any tracking systems your clans can create."
Kiba growled out, "Are you saying are clans are worthless compared to this supposed jutsu?"
"That's not what Roka or Kenji mean, Kiba. Right Lady Kagome?" Suki intervened looking to her sensei to be the one to stop this fight before it occurs.
Kagome smiled at the Kohana shinobi, calmly stating, "I'm sure your clan's jutsu are very successful, mine is just a little different and more effective at tracking someone whose scent has been missing for a while."
Shikamaru chimed in asking, "However, Sauske has been missing for almost two years, it would be impossible for you to even find his scent. Our tracking teams have tried and failed."
"That's true," Kagome replied before continuing, "however, if my team or I even pick up the slightest hint of his scent on the air or something he has touched we can track him easily."
Naruto grinned, "That's great!!! I can't wait to see this jutsu. Can we see it now? Can you teach me it? Can you—"
"Naruto that is enough questions for now," Jiraiya stated and then looked at everyone else, "You can ask the rest of your questions later, for now let's just get going."
Everyone nodded and left to get packed or the mission.
~End of Flashback~
She spent an hour answering them until Jiraiya suggested they wait until later and start heading out. She laughed as she looked at Naruto who was marching ahead of them preaching about how they were finally going to bring Sauske home. She was glad the village did not want him dead, just home. She had heard, from Tomo; that a village would normally kill their missing ninja instead of bringing them home, because they could not afford for their secrets to get out. 'They must care about him a great deal, especially if they have been searching this long for him,' she thought smiling.
'He reminds me of Shippo you don't think that he is…,'Kirara trailed off asking telepathically.
Kagome smiled and replied, 'I know he does, but if it was Shippo I would have known right away considering I spent so many years around his aura. I just need to spend more time around Naruto to figure out who it is.'
Kirara nodded her head and purred in agreement before closing her eyes to take a small nap. Kagome smiled and adjusted Kirara so she would rest peacefully in her arms before noticing that Kakashi had moved closer to her while she was conversing with Kirara. She had to bit her lip to keep from giggling at the look on his face; pure curiosity.
"Is there something you want to ask me Kakashi or are you just trying to flirt with me?"Kagome asked with a smile.
However, before Kakashi could answer Naruto appeared out of nowhere stating, "You better not be trying to convince Kagome-sama to pose for Pervey Sage's next book cover."
Kagome paused and looked at the two, never noticing that everyone else turned to hear the answer to the question, "Why on earth would he try to convince me?"
"Because he reads all of Pervey Sage's books, in fact he has the newest one in his pocket," Naruto informed her.
Kagome raised an eyebrow and asked, "So you're a hentia just like Jiraiya, Kakashi?
Kakashi scratches the back of his head laughing nervously, "Well they are very good literature and…."
Yet, he never got to finish seeing how Kagome just turned around and walked away, with her students just shaking their heads at him. He scowled at Naruto, and Jiraiya just laughed and patted him on the back saying, "People like us have to stick together, don't worry though she will come around. No lady can resist me and with you on my side it's a done deal."
"Keep dreaming Jiraiya, I wouldn't pose for your book if it was my only option to live, "Kagome stated.
Jiraiya cringed and Naruto asked, "how can she hear us from so far away?"
"Because my jutsu is currently active Naruto," Kagome informed them.
Naruto smiled and raced to catch up asking, "Will you please teach me the jutsu?"
"It's a very hard jutsu Naruto, it took Suki and Kenji a month to learn," Roka told him, smiling as he ignored the glares from his teammates.
Naruto look at Roka asking, "Well didn't it take you that long?"
"It only took Roka 2 weeks to learn Naruto, he's a quick study," Kagome stated smiling at the blush that spread over Rako's cheeks.
Roka replied, ignoring the snickering from Suki and Kenji, "Thank you Kagome-sama."
"I can learn it in a week, believe it! So will you please teach me it?" Naruto stated looking at Kagome with puppy eyes.
Kagome laughed telling him, "The puppy dog look does not work on me, I've seen it one too many times."
"Does that mean you won't teach me it?" Naruto asked looking defeated.
Kagome ruffled his hair and gave him a soft smile, "I never said that Naruto. How about this, if you allow me to talk to the nine tail kitsune within you I will teach you the jutsu."
"You would, that's great. We can get started right….wait why do you want to talk to Kyuubi? In matter of fact how can you talk to Kyuubi" Naruto confusedly asked.
Everyone by now had caught up with them and was listening to the conversation intensely all wondering the same thing Naruto had asked her. It was not a common request, but then again they all believe that she was not a common shinobi, while Kagome was trying to figure out why the name Kyuubi sounded familiar.
"Why don't we set up camp and I'll disclose a few details about myself that you do not know and explain how I will speak with the kitsune inside of you," Kagome informed them.
~One Hour Later~
After everyone was settled and dinner was cooking Kagome decided now was the time to explain a little of her past.
"First of all, you should know I am not an ordinary Kunoichi, I'm also a Miko," Kagome stated.
Naruto immediately asked, "What's a Miko?"
"A Miko is a priestess who wields holy powers. They were what youkai feared long ago because with just a touch of their miko ki could turn a demon to dust," Sakura supplied.
Kagome smiled and nodded her head, "That is correct Sakura, what you just described is called purification. Mikos and Monks were trained to fight against youkai and protect humans from them."
"Is this why I saw two different chakra channels within your body?" Neji stated.
Kagome smiled, "I was wondering when you would ask me about that. However, I thought you would ask me right away instead of waiting so long after you used the Byakugan."
"I admit I was curious, but it would have been rude of me to ask," Neji supplied.
Kagome laughed before replying, "Well at least there are gentleman here, I don' think I could handle be surrounded by hentia."
She gave a pointed look towards Jiraiya and Kakashi and was surprised when Jiraiya just grinned and Kakashi looked embarrassed. She turned her head back to the group when Sakura asked her, "If Mikos are known to purify youkai, then why are you partnered with Kirara?"
"Where I grew up, I was taught to treat everyone equally. I help no prejudices towards youkai and I only purified ones who tried to attack my friends, innocents and myself. In fact I befriended many youkai and hanyou throughout my journey," Kagome supplied.
Kakashi asked, "How can you have met and befriended many youkai, you don't look to be any older than 20. Youkai have been extinct for many, many years. The only ones around are the ones trapped within the jinchuuriki."
"You can't expect me to give away all my secrets do you?" Kagome asked, "Do you not have things about yourself you are cautious about telling people you have just met?"
Kakashi replied, "You are right, I apologize."
"That is alright, it's only human nature to be curious," Kagome replied smiling.
Naruto, who had been petting Kirara asked, "So how are you going to talk to Kyuubi?"
"We both would need to meditate while touching our hands together," Kagome replied, and then continued, "then we would be in your subconscious where Kyuubi is being held."
Naruto nodded and handed Kirara off to Kakashi who was the closest to him. Kakashi of course found it a little awkward considering he preferred dogs over cats; however, he was surprised when Kirara jumped onto his shoulder and rubbed her cheek against his purring.
Kagome grinned at the picture then turned to Naruto instructing, "Cross you legs and take a few deep breaths while holding your hands out."
Naruto nodded his head and did what she said touching his hands to her he heard his second set of directions.
"Now, closed your eyes, empty your mind and relax your body," Kagome stated.
Kiba snorted, "Well that shouldn't be hard, he doesn't have anything up there…ow."
Shikamaru sighed as Kiba rubbed the spot where he had hit me replying, "Stop being an idiot, just sit there and be quiet."
Kagome's team laughed while the rest of the Kohana shinobi just rolled their eyes. Jiraiya thought he could get a picture of kagome since her eyes were closed. He slowly creped over getting ready to take a shot when Kagome's voice stopped him cold.
"If you take one picture of me, I will castrate you then take you back to Lady Tsunade and tell her what you did. I doubt she would be happy with you and I'm pretty sure you will end up in the hospital. Where of course she would make sure she was the only to take care of you and I would make sure I am right beside her," Kagome stated in a deadly voice that sent chills down his spine.
Jiraiya gulped and moved away from her as quickly as possible. Kakashi was suddenly regretted the fact that Naruto had told her he had read Jiraiya's book, if he wasn't careful she could do him some harm. 'Why do I have the feeling that if I ever get on her bad side I would never live to see another day,' he thought shuddering at images of her torturing him going through his head. Little did he know the same thoughts were running through the thoughts of the rest of the Kohana male shinobi. Kagome's team however was used to her temper so they just leaned back and got comfortable, while Sakura started to idolize her. 'Maybe she will teach me some new things to use on Naruto when he annoys the hell out of me,' Sakura thought.
Kagome relaxed her body and emptied her mind like she instructed to Naruto. When she was sure Naruto had done the same she connected their subconscious to each other using her miko ki. Once they were connected she kept walking until she heard Naruto talking to someone. At one point she heard him say, "What's taking her so long? The quicker she gets her to meet you the quicker she can start teaching me that cool jutsu of hers."
Kagome shook her head and chuckled inwardly thinking, 'he's just as impatient as Inuyasha. I can just imagine what training is like with him.'
She stepped forward and announced her arrival by un-suppressing her aura of power. She heard Kyuubi his and Naruto yelp out in pain. She quickly reigned in her aura again and steeped forward letting a sooth effect calm Naruto and the kitsune inside the cage.
"I apologize but I wanted to get the disbelief out of the way right away," Kagome stated.
Naruto titled his head to the side like a cute puppy and asked, "What do you mean?"
"If I would have approached Kyuubi and told him I was a Miko, he would have either thought I was lying or that he could overpower me," Kagome informed him.
Kyuubi chuckled replying, "She is right kit, I would have never believed her if she had not let her aura overpower mine."
She approached the cage so that she could see Kyuubi better and vice versa. He eyes widened when she saw the scar on his paw. She would have known that scare anywhere, after all she also knows who gave him that scar. She heard the Kyuubi whimper, lying down in front of her and baring his neck to her. Telling her that he still believed her to be his Alpha female.
Kagome smiled and stepped forward, stroking his fur, "hello my dear sweet Kyuubi, I thought your name sounded familiar. How on earth did you end up in this state?"
Kyuubi just whimpered before purring at the attention kagome was giving him, he hadn't felt this type of affection since he last saw her. Naruto of course was so confused he had to voice his question, "Why on earth is Kyuubi letting you touch him?"
