Chapter 11- Hyuga Loving


Previously on Love and Pain...

After a series of odd events, Naruto sees Hinata masturbating at the same time falls (in a way) in love with her. After a little encouragement from the Kyuubi, the two get together and go on a ramen/date, after Naruto is unsure whether he truly loves her and to maintain the relationship. Choji of the Akimichi clan gets HIV and while in the hospital for diagnostics spills the beans to Ino that Shikamaru likes her. Meanwhile, in far away lands, the Akatsuki plan on attacking Konoha in four weeks and Karin is ordered by Nagato to set a chip I Gaara's neck. Currently, she is playing a game of hide and seek with the mysterious messenger "Katsuna".


The light shining high from the sky. The chickens singing from along the rooftops. Shining along the wooden apartments, blinding insects. Lights gently turning awake inside the Uzumaki household. Shining through the windows, lighting the floor on fire. Naruto Uzumaki lay gently in his sleep tossing and turning under his cotton covers. Dreams plaguing his sleep.

oOoOo

Naruto ran and looked around. He couldn't see anything besides black. Darkness shrouding his world. Distant murmuring in the way, long down the road. From afar, he could see a pair of red eyes. Glowing into the night. Slowly. Slowly. Slowly. They grew larger. Larger. Larger. Closer. Closer. He could now make out a duck-ass shaped head of hair. Out of the blue, appeared Sasuke Uchiha in Otogakure's average cloths. The same way he last saw him.

"Sasuke..." I managed to murmur out of my lips. I wondered how he had gotten here. Had he finally returned to Konoha? Was the long search over? Oh no... He was going to speak!

"Naruto. Don't take her from me. She is mine. She loves me. You can not have her. She confessed her love to me that day. Leave her. With me." the Uchiha said in a very... Un-Uchiha way. How very unlike him talking about a girl in this manner.

"Sasuke... who are you talking about? How did you get here?" Naruto squeaked out.

"Sakura. You can not have her. She is mine. Sakura dos not love you. Leave us... alone. I can make her happy." Sasuke said again. Unlike himself, talking about love. Bonds. Something he did not have.

"S-Sasuke... I'm with Hinata now." Naruto stuttered out of his already sweating body.

"You say that now." Sasuke slowly broke apart. Black crows continuously emitting from his body until he had none. Just crows circling around Naruto. Slowly they all formed right in front of the blond, forming another Uchiha. He drew the sword from his back slowly so the metal scratched against its holder. He lifted it to weigh on Naruto's shoulder.

"And now... you die."

Wake up.

Wake up.

WAKE UP.

WAKE UP!

WAKE UP!!!

oOoOo

Naruto grumbled in his sleep. He tossed and turned, trying to fight off the voice blindly. He thrashed under his covers, and finally gave in. He slowly opened his right eye in a daze. Even though everything was blurry, he could make out that he was definitely in his room. All the stuff with Sasuke had been a dream. He slowly opened his other eye, and sat up with an unspoken sigh. He blinked his eyes once more before rolling out of bed.

It's about time you finally woke up. You were rolling around like it was a hurricane. I think if I hadn't woke you up, I'd have been listening to your murmuring all day.

Oh... it was you that woke me up...

Okay, kit. You seem down. Was the Uchiha brat invading your nights again?

You can say that.

Uhh... what did he do this time? Threaten to chop your pinky off??! Har! Har! hargh!

No. He told me to stay away from Sakura. That she was his. I don't understand... I mean, I'm with Hinata right?

Maybe you're still having doubts from last night. I mean... it's not everyday you go out with the heir of the Hyuga clan! Just ease up, and take her on another date.

You think so?

Look kit, I'm doing this to get laid, not for you. And besides, what can go wrong? Just avoid Pinky for a few days and you're set.

Okay then. I'll do it. It's for the boobs. It's for the boobs. It's for the boobs.

Yeah kit, you keep on thinking that.


(Pay close attention- my first attempt at a fight scene. A very long one at that.)

Karin dashed along the corner, praying not to be seen. She been playing, sort of... a game of Hide and Seek with a mysterious bald man in a jounin suit. She dashed further, and slid to a stop. She didn't know how much longer she could make it. Sliding down the sand, she flipped her body over again and darted down the corner. She hoped she wouldn't have to get into a fight because of all of team Hawk; she was by far the weakest. She jumped from her thoughts as she heard footsteps rounding the corner. She was drenched with sweat, and her cloths were all cut up with bruises.

She jumped off the wall and built chakra in her feet. With some strength, she ran along the wall until she was on the other side. Then, she hopped onto the roof and ran to the noises source. She of course, saw the bald man again leaping down the road. As soon as she could, she jumped off onto the opposite roof and did so continuisly until she was quite far from the Jounin Messenger. Katsuna's eyes flickered to the left to see a mush of red hair running. Since she was farther now, he opened his chakra wave system again, and ran after the intruder.

Karin slid down to the floor and fall flat on the sand. She hurried down another corner and made a right. Finally, she stopped and sat. She huffed and puffed and relaxed her limbs, slowly she closed her eyes, now feeling safe that she lost the enemy for a considerable amount of time.

oOoOo

Katsuna darted down the road as fast as his legs could take him. He followed the source of Chakra towards the other end of the village. Sensing a top, he ran further and took this opportunity to devise a sneak attack. He had done this loads of times before. But this time, it was to protect the Kazekage. It was his job in-particular to kill any intruders and deliver messages to foreign countries. As he felt the chakra was fairly close, he stopped running.

He slowly crept along the wall and pulled a Kunai out of its pouch and held it in his right hand. He peered down the corner to check for any traps, and seeing there were none, he slid to his left. He slid further down the road, moving his feet rhythmically. He was tired, almost ready to take a nap if he could considering he had been chasing the felon all night in the sands of Sunagakure. He jumped across to a ditch and slowly turned his head around to see what was inside.

And there she was. He recognized her because he had caught a glimpse of her once or twice and had been paying very close attention. She laid there with her back against the wall and her glasses hanging off her nose. Her body was completely healed, witch was the strangest thing. But... he did not have time to think about that because he needed to stab her now, before he awoke.

He gently lifted his Kunai in his hand and entered a throwing stance. He moved his foot slightly forward, and he heard a flick of a pin to his right. He turned his head swiftly to that direction, and saw a Kunai flying directly towards his head. With a swift motion, he ducked it easily and allowed himself a small laugh at the intruder's foolishness. The metal piece hit the wall with a clang and Karin's eyes darted open to see the man launching towards her again. She wondered how he found her so quickly but decided to think later. Katsuna smirked again, and thought about how stupid he was, thinking that the Kunai was meant to attack him.

He leaped towards her quickly with the Kunai in his hand. She rolled over, still a little dazed from her short nap and kicked him in the face witch held him over for a few seconds. She flipped herself over and landed hunched over towards the entrance of the ditch. Katsuna pushed himself up, and brushed his lower lip gently to wipe a single drop of blood.

"Who are you and what do you want?" Katsuna asked exasperated, even though he was fully prepared to kill the women.

"My name is Karin first of all, and I suppose it doesn't hurt to tell you my purposes since you are about to die. I was sent here by Akatsuki to do something with the Kazekage." Karin said confidently even though it was all inside.

"Oh. Then you must die by my hand. The hand of Fukumen Katsuna, messenger Jounin of Sunagakure, direct employer of Lord Kazekage. My last name "Fukumen" means "Mask" as in... By the time you die, you will never have been able to see my whole face, or my body. Those of the Fukumen clan have no worldly ambitions, no goals. Just to kill form behind the mask of Sunagakure." Katsuna said emotionlessly.

"Okay then, Mr. Mask. Not only will I rip off this "Mask of yours, I will tug your heart out and pluck your eyes out. You will die by my hand, "Messenger"." Karin said as she tried her best to act cool and buff, so the man would at least be afraid of her. Katsuna smirked again.

"Okay, intruder. Do as you may. We shall fight, and win or lose, none will uncover my secrets." Katsuna said as he bent over into battle stance, he eyed his Kunai that laid on the floor behind him. Karin followed Katsuna's stance and entered her eyes on the new target. She had no idea how heartless the man who was following her was. The wind blew silently, cheering almost for the first attack.

Karin jumped to her side and pulled three shuriken out of her pocket. She through them towards Katsuna who quickly dodged them and grabbed his Kunai once more. He flung it towards Karin's head like the last one had been flung at his. She dodged down and put her hands on the floor, the next time she looked up a second later she saw Katsuna's right foot flying towards her face. She rolled over to avoid it quickly, only to see his fist rocketing to her face once more. She flipped up as he fist pounded into the ground.

Karin jumped behind me, as he quickly un-earthed his fist. The next thing he knew, he felt a cold knife pressing against his throat. He laughed a bit at his opponent's foolishness. He roughly elbowed her in the guts and grabbed the cold metal and she doubled over for a second. He flung the knife at her feet, and she jumped up right in time. And while she was spending time dodging the Kunai, he punched her in the face with all his strength which sent her flying to the wall.

She fell to the ground again and stood up after a second. She wiped her lips from blood and decided that she shouldn't use that jutsu yet. She eyed the man again who still stood calm as ever.

"So, how did you like my warm up?" Karin bluffed slightly.

"Warm up? No matter. Either way you die in the end." Katsuna said as Karin's smile slowly turned back into a frown.

"I know we're enemies but why do you have to be so cold?" Karin asked as she let her objective slightly off for a moment.

"You don't need to know." Katsuna murmured as he dashed towards the red head again. He pulled his fist back again and prepared to punch her with all her might again, except this time, hitting a wall. 'She got faster' he mused.

"I told you, it was just a warm-up." Karin said a little more confidently then last time.

Karin dashed towards Katsuna who was just turning around and slapped him in the face which moved him slightly. Taken aback, he did not suspect another fist but this time a punch straight to the jaw. So she went towards another punch, he quickly grabbed her hand. She moved to punch him with her other one, but he grabbed it to with the same hand. Slowly, ever so slowly, he lifted the wrapped wrappings on his left eye. He opened it slowly revealing a blood lust stricken face.

Karin, now starting to panic, hopped up and kicked him in the face as he let go of her. She fell down. On her bottom, and quickly jumped back up for her life. She jumped back and prepared for the next attack. She did feel slightly happy, that she was gaining the upper hand, but she didn't understand why he didn't use ninjustu. She decided she would think it more over as he got back up and walked towards her.

Katsuna was so far surprised how ell the girl was doing even though he was fighting with pure taijustu and had yet to unveil his Kekai Genkai, or blood line trait.

"I thought you said I wouldn't see under your face?" Karin said with a small laugh as she got prepared.

"Childish fool, you wouldn't understand." Katsuna said meekly as he looked towards the ground. Karin took this opportunity to deliver another punch to the face. This time, he did not move. He just let the blood flow out of his mouth as he stared at her deadly.

"Oh yeah, I just noticed, you haven't been using any Ninjutsu or Genjutsu. And your taijustu skills assuming their at there best is only Chunin level. Show me your other attacks; I need to see how strong you are." Karin said smugly.

"So you have noticed I was testing your abilities. I admit that I am a bit low in the field of Genjutsu and Taijustu. I also only have only 1 Jutsu. I have obtained my rank for a certain reason that I don't intend to let you find out." Katsuna said.

"Oh, then let me see it." Karin said eagerly as she pulled a knife and entered battle stance.

"As you wish. Destroy. Blow into the sand, Kaze Genkou no Jutsu." Katsuna said as he performed various hand seals. (Kaze=Wind; Genkou=Current) The air behind Katsuna began swirling furiously. Soon, it became almost a miniature tornado. The winds came out like whips and started towards Karin. Karin, in a daze did not no how to react until she saw the waves of chakra break down the walls, she darted to her left. The waves came quickly at her and she jumped over again. The waves retreated to Katsuna slowly as he began to speak again.

"My jutsu, send out waves of wind chakra from a miniature tornado. Each wave could kill if it touched your vital organs. A classic A Rank technique. As I said, you will die by one of the Mask. Now, away with the wind." The waves shot out again, this time, Karin barely missed them. Just as she was about to dodge another wave she did not expect to see Katsuna's fist flying towards her head. As she flew onto the floor, one wave smashed onto her right arm.

The waves retreated once more as Karin jumped up again. She weakly thought about using her jutsu, but deciding against it as her arm fell limp to her side. She stuck her left hand into her pocket and took out a small capsule. Katsuna eyed it suspisously, and then sent the waves after her again. This time, being more prepared she dodged them and headed towards Katsuna. He hunched down and prepared for a kick, but none came. He raised his head, to see Karin ran past him and right up to the twister. She plucked the capsule open and threw it into the wind, then jumped back.

"Wah...?" Katsuna muttered as his tornado burst into flames, and eventually a huge fireball. He jumped to his feet only to be caught by the ball of flames which consumed him. Karin smirked as the flames finally died down. Standing there, was Katsuna with only a few minor burns and his Jounin shirt ripped off to reveal his torso covered in bandages with a little green slime on it. His bandages on his head were now completely gone revealing his bald head with a few screw marks and lashes. (Sort of like Ibiki, except the who top of his head)

"You bastard... Act like I'm the only one holding back." Katsuna breathed out heavy, and now he felt as though he would collapse. His sides burned and he felt nothing but to leap out and rip the woman to shreds.

"How are you...?" Karin stuttered out as she pointed her shaking finger towards Katsuna's burned body.

"I turned on my Kekkai Genkai for one moment. But... what happened to your arm?" Katsuna said shakily as he looked towards her now perfect right arm.

"I didn't have any elemental abilities. Sasuke-Kun left me with a katon capsule and I only had one. And about the arm, I say as you once said you don't need to know." Karin said more proud then ever. She could actually win this! But... did he have something else in store?

"Humph. It seems you have forced me to uncover my mask partially. To succeed in my mission, you must die so I must show you my Kekkai Genkai. One of the biggest reasons that I don't use my abilities that often is..."

A young version of Katsuna skipped down the hall with his mother, awaiting to arrive at the hospital. He needed Kaihou's forgiveness. He sat in the waiting room while Mother spoke with the doctor. She came out crying. Immediately Katsuna knew something was wrong. He went to comfort his mother. After a few moments her crying subsided and he could make out the words...

"B-Baby K-Katsuna... K-Kaihou d-died..."

"Is... what?" Karin asked auspiciously.

"You don't need to know." Katsuna said as a single tear fell down his stone cold face. He slowly unwrapped the bandages from around his waist. After a few moments, they all lay on the floor.

"What move are you going to perform now?" Karin asked smugly. Katsuna let a sad blood stained smirk.

"My full name is Fukumen Katsuna. Our clan has a mask. Do you know what is behind the mask?" Katsuna asked as he stared wholes through her.

"No."

"Acid. Now you die. Awaken, Suibabura." Katsuna said. His stomach slowly heated up. Eventually it came to the point where it was green and boiling with bubbles. He put his right hand inside his stomach and slowly brought it back out. In his hand was a ball of green slime. (Sui-Acid; babura-bubbles)

"W-What the...!?" Karin stuttered as she narrowly missed the ball that went passed her. She looked behind her slowly to see a hole going at last a mile down where the ball of slime landed. She looked forward and held her breath, awaiting the next move.


Naruto walked up to the door, rather nervous about what to do. He had been debating almost all the way here. Should he break up with her? A low possibility in his head, true but... none the less. He raised his hand, relinquishing all doubts in his head and knocked on the door three times. He stood, anticipating the next move.

Within a few minutes, Hinata opened the door fully dressed and ready to go. Naruto's throat went dry, and his heart beat quickened. He did not know what to do at all. His heart told him to leave and go home, but his brain said to listen to the Kyuubi and try it again. Hinata blushed as she stared at the distraught boy, who had a line of sweat rolling down his forehead.

"N-Naruto-K-Kun?" Hinata said, hoping that it would wake the boy up somewhat. She started nervously rolling her fingers around each other, hoping that he wasn't here to break up with her. Naruto opened his mouth slightly, and then closed it again. He told himself continuous re-assuring thoughts in his head and then---

"Hinata-Chan would you like to eat ramen with thy?" Naruto said painfully as he remembered the last person he said those words to. He silently prayed that she would say "no", but nobody could know that. Not even Kyuubi.

"O-Of c-course I would... Naruto-Kun!" Hinata said a bit louder than usual. She blushed fiercely at the animosity of her voice and slowly asked for Naruto to take her hand without using words.


A certain Taijustu specialist jumped up in bed, ready for the new day. He threw the covers off his body and threw it onto his pile of green spandex. He hopped across the room in a millisecond and was in the shower in half. By ten minuets after that, he was in his closet thinking over whether to wear spandex number one or number two. In the end, he decided number 3.

He hopped down the stairs and ran towards his fridge and grabbed a bowl of cereal. He plopped on his couch, hoping not to get to fat and let his mind wonder. After a considerable amount of time thinking about how many laps he should do today, he began to think about Neji. He did not exactly know why but he had been thinking about the Hyuga a lot lately. He had even caught himself masturbating to him 3 days ago!

Hmmm... I wonder why I am thinking this way about Neji. I mean I always wanted to prove myself to him, but... I never thought about him this way before. It feels like how it used to when I was around I should ask Gai-Sensai. Oh yeah... but what if I love Neji? The last time I asked him about gay people he started screaming and saying that it would ruin the spring time of youth permanently. Is what I am thinking wrong? Do I have to go to a psychiatrist for thinking too much again?

I don't know. All I know is that I keep having these weird thoughts about Neji. I can't tell him. I can't tell Gai-Sensai. I can't let anyone find out that I might be attracted to the same sex.

Lee started washing out the bowl, and then left it in his draw. He put on his head band and shuriken and Kunai pouch, and left the house. He ran down the street, ready for another long day of practice. Because he had to prove himself to Neji. And that was because---

I love Neji Hyuga.


Kiba slowly crawled away from Akamaru, hoping he would stop following him. Luckily, he did and Kiba stood up with a sigh. He wiped his brow of the sweat accumulating and started walking towards Tentens house. Honestly, he did not know if he would win. She also had Shino chasing after her. Shino was definitely stronger than him and practically proved it back in the Chunin Exams. He was cooler, stronger, better, taller. And he was just some dog boy who lived in a mutt house.

Kiba looked towards the ground as he headed down Tentens road. He gently kicked a rock, and looked his feet up to of course; see Shino sitting in his spot. He snuck up behind him and gently tapped the back of his left shoulder.

"W- Oh, Kiba. What are you doing here?" Shino asked stupidly as I f he wanted to be hit.

"Shino. Let's not go through this today, we both agreed that it was my turn to look through her window." Kiba said calmly.

"I don't remember such a deal." Shino said dully as he raised his head to go back to looking through the weapon specialist's window.

"You bastard..." Kiba muttered under his breath as Shino turned around to look at him.

"What did you just say?" Shino asked in almost the perfect smart-alecky tone.

"That's it!" Kiba yelled as he tackled Shino to the ground, while beknowist to them Tenten watched them through the opposite side of the window giggling.


Sasuke could see nothing but black. He did not know where he was. His world was shrouded in darkness. All he could hear was distant murmuring. He ran to his left, then his right, then foward, then backwards and all to no avail.

"Sasuke." The voice pierced through his ears, he spun around and saw nothing. He ran further towards where the voice had come, but still to no avail. He could have sworn he just heard Itachi call his name.

"Sasuke." There it was again. He spun one more time, but this time he actually saw something. It was indeed Itachi.

"Big brother.... How are you here? I killed you a long time ago!" Sasuke said with every ounce of fear his pale body had.

"The point is not that. It is of your plans to destroy Konoha. Your home. Our home. The place to return to in the end. Where all your friends are." Itachi said in a classic "Itachi" voice.

"What are you talking about!? They forced you to kill the clan! We should have fought with them!" Sasuke yelled, holding himself back from not leaping at his older brother.

"Please Sasuke. All I can say is that as your older brother, you need to rethink your decisions. What is your answer?" Itachi said. Just as Sasuke was about to answer, he couldn't... because---

"SASUKE!!! Wake the fuck up!" Tobi yelled as Sasuke slowly sat up and grumbled. He rubbed his shoulder and thought about his dream before getting up and following Madara out of the room.

"What are you waking me so early for?" Sasuke said as he said down on a raised piece of granite, opposite of Madara.

"You have to complete the Eternal Mangekyou. As I explained to you earlier, since you got Itachi and your own at the same time, you now have six abilities, three of which are Itachis and the first of your own is only to send away Amateratsu. Have you completed your other two? I hear that one is Bakuhatsu." Madara said with a grin under his orange mask.

"I'm working on them." Sasuke said silently, as his eyes moved towards the floor slightly in shame.

"You are trying to complete the Nenshou Kabushi, aren't you?" Tobi asked knowingly. Sasuke hardened his glare.

It feels so lonely and weird now that Karin is gone. And why does Madara have to interrogate everything I do!?


Karin flew to the side as a ball of hurling acid narrowly missed her newly healed arm. Her face thickened as she heard the sound of the soil burning through. She had to think of a strategy now, and she had to think of one fast! First of all, she had to avoid the slime while at the same time reach Katsuna which was a whole task on its own.

As she dodged another ball, she decided she would have to test this thing out first. So, she darted towards the user and Katsuna threw another ball. She did a quick summersault and flung a Kunai out of her pocket. She flung it straight at Katsuna's boiling torso. Katsuna didn't avoid it, he did nothing actually. She watched in horror as the Kunai just sank into his skin and decapitated. Before she had time to think, there was another ball flying towards her. Just as she narrowly avoided it again, she saw Katsuna making more handseals. She had barely enough time to see that her pinky was burned from the last attack.

"Kaze Genshou no Jutsu!" Katsuna screamed as another miniature tornado was made into existence. Karin flinched in slight exhaustion. She had an enough time the last time he used the jutsu! Except this time, the twister was moving around in circles. She looked towards the Jounin. He hadn't thrown any balls yet, but he was still in Suibabura mode.

Frustrated, she popped another capsule from her pocket and threw it at Katsuna. The man did not make a move as it exploded it his face and burned his body to flames. She laughed as most of the waves of chakra were sent back to the twister tentatively.

"Ha! I lied; I actually had two capsules just in case! You're finished!" Karin laughed to herself as the smoke died down. Her laughter was cut off all but a minute later by what she saw. Katsuna was still standing in the exact same position, except the slime was completely covering his body like a shield! With a flick of his finger, the hardened slime all cracked and fell off his body.

"You fool." Was all he said as he dug his hands further into his torso. He brought out 5 slime balls and threw them all into the twister, which made it turn greenish and emit waves of acid, instead of wind chakra. Karin moved her glasses to make sure she saw right. She jumped forward as a wave of acid flew towards her and hit the ground. The whole street melted at least ten miles down. Karin muttered a few curses and jumped atop a building as another wave flew past her.

Just as she thought she was safe, a wave crashed through the abandoned house she stood on and she flipped backwards to avoid the fatal blow. She ran and leaped across to the building opposite as Katsuna jumped to where she was just standing. All the waves retreated to the twister... and then... the twister flew onto her building! Just as it was about to hit her, it disappeared. Just as she was about to ask why, she saw Katsuna panting heavily and on the verge of falling down.

"Huuuh... huuuuh. I'm almost completely out of chakra, you're lucky girl." Katsuna said as he jumped across to her building and dug his hands into his stomach and pulled out more acid.

Karin dodged another ball of acid flying towards her. She darted towards the bald man, but skipped to her right as she narrowly missed death. She flung down, and tripped him so he fell flat on his back. Katsuna jumped back on his back and flung more acid. This time, after the acid hit the top of the roof they were on, the jumped through it to think of a plan. Katsuna wondered around thinking of where she went and sat to rest for a moment.

Karin slid to the floor and took a deep breath. She healed all of her wounds and sat in silence waiting for a noise. Within five minutes she was rewarded as she saw Katsuna walking down the street with the bandages wrapped around his torso. She out a long held breath and stood; a sneak attack would be perfect for this situation. She snuck through the window and pulled out her last Kunai.

Katsuna walked down the street calmly, ready to report to the Kazekage that he had killed the intruder that had invaded and possibly to kill him. Karin crept along the wall, silently behind the un-suspecting man. She moved closer, slowly. Slowly. Slowly. Slowly. She raised her hand up to her shoulder as she followed him down the gathered chakra in her feet once more and climbed to the roof. Katsuna's eye flickered for a moment, but he kept walking.

With a second, she jumped off the floor, and right in front of Katsuna. After a moment of complete shock, he raised his leg to kick her aside, but stopped as he felt the cold metal pierce his heat. He lowly heard the noise of Karin jumping back. He looked down, to see a Kunai knife was penetrating his chest and blood flowing freely out.

Katsuna ran up to his father who was standing outside working the little crops they had in the dessert. He jumped up and down in front of his father.

"What, what is it Katsuna-Kun? Those of the Fukumen Clan are not supposed to be jumping about in such a manner. Lord Kazekage would be disappointed." the old man said. Katsuna looked up to his father happily and closed his eyes.

"I finally mastered the clans Kekkai Genkai! Aren't you proud father? Look! S-Suibabura!" young Katsuna yelled with held in laughter. His father smiled warmly at him as Katsuna started throwing acid balls all over the field. Suddenly Katsuna's older brother, Kaihou Fukumen ran into the field.

Katsuna, completely un-aware that his brother entered the room, through acid in his general direction by accident, but didn't notice. But of course, Father did. He ran over to Kaihou's side and looked at him. He yelled for Katsuna to come over, which he did. The minute he saw his older brother, his face fell and he released the Kekkai Genkai.

Kaihou's face was almost smothered in ashes and his whole body as if a glutton for punishment. Father held Kaihou's body close to him. No matter what clan, crying over the death of your boy was not shameful. But Katsuna stood there and stared, rooted to the spot. He couldn't move, he just stared at his older brother's half-dead body. And it was his entire fault.

Katsuna's body fell to the ground as his heart stopped bleeding. Karin walked over and pulled the Kunai out of the mans chest. She started to walk away, but turned around. She took out her last shuriken and slit her arm.

"You asked how my arm healed, Fukumen? I have instant regeneration of any body part still attached to the main." Karin said as she healed her arm again.

"You say I am the one that dies, indeed I even saw partially under your mask. You are a fool. Even with out knowing anything of the Fukumen Clans history, it's obvious to me. Under the mask is acid, you say? I believe the acid is to burn away the mask and bloom a full fledged shinobi. Fool... it was your destiny to die, as long as you keep it. You're..." Karin said proudly somewhat, then she turned around and walked away.

Mask.


A/N- Wow! Over 6, 500 words! I want to say "this will be the longest chapter ever" But, that time IU said that in chapter 5.... Look what happened. And I actually made the deadline with 1 unasked review same rules as last time, so don't bet on a quick update like this. I was just exited for the fight.

Kaze Genshou [wind*current] Waves of destructive wind chakra chase the opponent from a mini twister near the user

Suibabura [acid*bubbles] -Kekkai Genkai- Users stomach turns into green slime acid that only the user can touch un-harmed

Bakuhatsu [explosion]

Nenshou Kabushi [flame*fist]

And if you guys think I rushed Katsuna's character, than so be it. By the way, Katsuna is physically stronger than Karin, but Karin had a better battle strategy and brains.
