I walked back to my room feeling triumphant. I can't wait to see if they dare try anything again. I heard footsteps coming toward me. I stopped and looked over my shoulder, it was Guren.

She stopped running when she was a few feet in front of me. "I hope you know I had nothing to do with that."

"I know." I shrugged. "I'm not mad about it at all actually. Initiations are always like this. I just said those things to shut them up." I laughed.

"What's so funny?"

"I'm just remembering my Initiation at Konoha's hospital! Nasty!"

Guren laughed. "Don't underestimate these Kunoichi." she suddenly became serious. "Tayuya may be young but she's alpha around here with the Kunoichi. Don't mess with her."

"I'll try not to but something tells me she already has me in her book." I said waving my hand dismissively. "How long does Initiation last here anyway?"

"Until they see what you're made of or when they think you've suffered enough." Guren said we had started walking back to our rooms. "I don't know what Lord Orochimaru has in store for you but be ready, it might not end well."

"I've seen into the guys mind and let me tell you this... Not. Pretty." I shuddered. "I know you are loyal to him but you should be careful too. Don't put all your faith into him." I search Guren's eyes, not her mind just her eyes. She knew there was truth to what I said. She just didn't want to believe it.

"How do you tell these rooms apart?" I asked.

"The door handles." Guren said. "Mine is made of crystal, Tayuya's looks like a flute. Everyone does something to theirs so we know what room is ours. You haven't gotten a chance to change it yet. This is yours." We stopped I looked closely at the handle it looked like.... A bell.

"Who had this room before me?" I asked.

"Actually it was Tayuya's twin sister, Kin Tsuchi." Guren said sadly. "She was killed in the Invasion of the Konoha."

"I knew her." I whispered.

"You knew Kin?" Guren's surprise was no surprise to me.

"Yes we met in the Chunin Exams. Despite her mission she was still a good friend. Good singer too." I said.

"They are both of the Fuma Clan." Guren said before she left.

I can't believe I'm living in Kin's old room... Did Orochimaru do this on purpose...? I touched the doorknob lightly. Kin... I smirked. I can't believe they think you're dead! Oh this is just too funny!

I broke off the doorknob after I opened the door. I sat on my bed clutching the metal door knob. I noticed that the doorknob was actually a bell with the metal ball taken out. "Well that's interesting." I looked in the opening in the bell, there was something inside. I grabbed the sheet of paper inside of the bell and pulled it out carefully.

I went over to the desk and straightened it out. I was a picture of Tayuya, Kin and two other girls. Kin and Tayuya looked ten as did the orange hair girl. The other was about thirteen, twelve in the picture which means she would be about sixteen, seventeen now. The girl looked strikingly like Kin. I gazed at the picture. All four of them looked so happy.

I smiled slightly as I put the picture and doorknob in the top drawer of the desk. An image flashed before my eyes. A sun with eleven rays inside of a crescent moon. I shook my head and opened my eyes. On the desk was a wooden, oval shaped doorknob with the symbol I had just seen on it.

I picked it up and put in the door, the two objects melded together. I guess this is my room now...

"Wolf Bitch." I turned my head to see Tayuya standing there in her bath robe. Her brown eyes looked like they were on fire.

"Why is everyone calling me that? First Kabuto, now you." I crossed my arms and leaned against the wall.

"You don't belong here." Tayuya spat.

"I know, but I had no choice." The Konoha flashed before my eyes. I shook my head, my towel was still on my head, though it felt like it was going to fall off.

"You had a choice. You could have died." I could feel her hatred.

"What did I ever do to you?" I raised my eyebrow.

"You know what you did Wolf Bitch." Tayuya spun around and slammed her door shut.

"Great." I muttered. "I'm here not even a day and people already hate me." I shook my head and went into my room.

I looked around the room that used to belong to my friend. The furniture was plain. And wooden... "At least I can do something with it." Oak wood would be nice.

I looked at the desk and closed my eyes. I thought of the desk at home, the ornate swirls of vines that connected the Oak leaves. The back of the chair was like an Oak leaf, the seat was a plain circle. Alright now for the head board... An Oak tree... The Moon and Sun symbol flashed before my eyes, I saw the light wooden floor change to a light Oak wood. The symbol was in a dark Oak wood. The dresser... Oak... Keep a theme.

I felt light headed, I closed my eyes tighter than they already were. I felt myself fall to the ground but it felt like I had fallen from a few feet. I heard someone say my name. Then I was out.

Tayuya's POV

I sat on my bed, my wet red hair was hanging in my face. I noticed a light green light was shining out from under my door. I walked cautiously to the door, I hesitated as I reached for it. The second I opened the door the light was blinding. It was coming from Nozomi's room. What is that Wolf Bitch up to?

Through the blinding light I saw several Kunoichi walking this way. Guren was already standing in front of Nozomi's room, door open. I stood next to Guren. I couldn't help but marvel at what I saw. The wooden furniture was changing before my eyes, patterns appeared in the furniture, even the type of wood changed.

Nozomi levitated several feet over a large symbol. Even her clothes were changing. The colors were hard to make out, but her tank top became a loser fit, the sleeves were off the shoulder. A skirt that reminded me of two leaves sewn together appeared. How is she doing this?

Suddenly the light rushed back to her and Nozomi fell to the ground with a thud.

"Nozomi" Guren raced into the room and knelt next to Nozomi. I couldn't see Nozomi well since Guren was in the way. I heard Guren gently slapping Nozomi's cheek, trying to get her to regain conciseness. Several of the Kunoichi walked past me, clearly worried. I hate to admit it but Nozomi had earned a lot respect quickly.

I looked around her room. It was so ornately done, no wonder she was exhausted. I couldn't help but walk over to see if she was alright. I noticed Nozomi's jeweled necklace was giving off a soft, green pulsating light. It reminded me of a heartbeat.

I could see Nozomi wasn't unconscious, she was sleeping. Her pants were a lighter shade of blue, like a sky blue. Her shirt was a light blue-green color and her skirt was the same color as the pulsating light.

Nozomi started to shake violently. Fear couldn't help but grip me. What's wrong with her!?
