Chapter 10
"You have returned."
The smile on Arlena's face grew wide at the four gems resting in the four girl's hands.
"Excellent…"
"What are we to do now?" Sakura asked.
"Three nights from now will be a full moon…then we can lay the gems to rest. But until them, rest them around your necks, hidden from sight."
She gazed around her.
"Let us leave and return to the village. You must all be tired…."

"This feels amazing…" Sakura said with a sigh, sliding her shoulder farther down into the steaming water.
"It's been awhile since I was able to do this…" Ino said.
"Ditto that…" Tenten said.
"What about you Hinata?" Sakura asked, turning to the girl in question.
Said person opened her eyes. "Hmmm….what?"
The three looked at her in confusion.
"Forgive me…I was talking to Selene…"
"You mean your summon?" Ino asked.
Hinata nodded. "Yes…we were discussing something…"
"Hey…why don't we let them come and enjoy this with us?" Tenten suggested.
"Wonderful idea!" Sakura said, clapping her hands.
The four summoned together at once as a cloud of smoke appeared. Four woman stood next to the hot spring smiling.
"Thank you mistress. This is wonderful." Amelia said, sliding in next to Sakura, her hair up in a tight bun, wearing a light red two-piece.
Saru's brunette hair was put up like Tenten's as she sat next to said girl, her tail laying across her lap wearing a light purple swimsuit. Gekida slid into the water next to Ino, her dark blonde hair in two long braids, wearing a dark yellow swimsuit. Selene glared at Hinata before going to sit next to Hinata, bangs flowing over one eye, wearing a black swimsuit.
"So…who's telling first?" Sakura said with a smile.

"Splash me one more time dobe and you're dead meat…"
"Relax Sasuke…you three are so tense…geez…" Naruto hugged and leaned back against a rock.
"You seem to annoy them as much as you annoy me."
Naruto glared at the older version of himself atop the rock.
"The only reason you're here Akuma is because the girls brought their summons out…"
Akuma chuckled. "So it would seem…"
He turned to the three other summons with a smirk.
"My…..brothers….don't seem to want to play either…"
Dondura opened one eye, ruby pupil blazing. "I don't "play" Akuma…"
The fox's auburn red eyes blazed with his smirk.
"I've heard otherwise…"
"Enough you two…" Koumori said, flexing his winged-arms before folding them around his body. (A/N: Kinda like a vampire)
"If they get into it…I'm not breaking it up." Heisei said, the bored tone raining in his voice, flipping a coin into the air.
"They sound like Sasuke and Naruto…" Shikamaru said.
"Summons do catch personalities from their summoned…" Negi stated.
"I am nothing like him!" Akuma and Naruto spoke at once, pointing at each other.
The six others sighed in unison.
* * *
"You think they could keep it down?"
"Probably not a chance…" Ino replied.
Sakura sighed in frustration.
"Better go separate them…" Tenten said.
All four and their summons sighed and stood. The eight headed to the boys section of the hot springs. Tenten bangs on the door and was met with a towel-clad boyfriend. The eight entered the room and pulled their boyfriends out, their summons doing the same, oblivious to the fact that the men were covered in towels.
