Two days later Kyre was let out of the hospital, to her relief. She walked down the main street towards the Hokage's mansion making sure not to make eye contact with anyone. She learned that making eye contact made people avoid her. She wondered if her reputation had spread to Konaha too. She hoped not.

Yamen was at one of the many small restaurants eating dumplings and drinking sake. He was bored. Kyre hadn't been let out of the hospital yet. Thinking of Kyre he remembered that today she was being let out. With a jump he stood up, put his money on the table and ran out.

As he ran through the main street, he saw Kyre walking at a care free pace towards the Hokage's Mansion.

"Kyre, wait up!" he yelled.

Kyre paused and turned around seeing her sensei running to meet her.

"You could have just walked over here; there was no need to yell…"

"Sorry."

Kyre rolled her eyes and kept walking. As she neared the mansion, she bumped into team eight.

"Who are you?" said a boy about her age, a month younger at most. He had brown hair and had two red marks on his cheeks. Beside him was a huge dog, with cream white fur.

"None of your business," Kyre snapped.

"Hey!" The teen barked out.

"Kiba-kun…" said his team-mate. She had light lavender eyes and indigo hair.

"Hinata-chan, what if she's up to something?" the boy named Kiba asked.

"I don't think she is, Kiba-kun," said Hinata.

"She's fine Kiba…my bugs would have sensed something," said a figure Kyre hadn't seen at first. He made her a little nervous. Almost his whole face was covered by his jacket that hooded his head.

"Are you sure Shino? She looked a little suspicious to me," Kiba complained.

"Do I look like I want to hurt the Hokage to you?" Kyre questioned.

"Sort of, ya," Kiba answered.

Kyre sighed. Were all the boys' idiots here?

"The hokage asked for me to see her today. No worries," Kyre informed Kiba.

"Okay, okay," Kiba muttered.

"Let's go guys," Hinata said.

"Yes, we have to train," Shino agreed.

"Alright…" Kiba grumbled.

Kyre walked into the hallway and to the door that read Hokage's office. She knocked twice and waited for a response.

"Come in," Tsunade commanded.

Kyre opened the door and walked in, Yamen following behind her.

"Good morning Tsunade-sama," Kyre said with a bow.

Tsunade smiled, "Good morning Kyre."

"It's been a while," Kyre commented.

"Yes it has. The last time I saw you, you were only a genin."

Kyre smiled, "Yup."

"Let's get to business shall we."

Kyre nodded.

"You were attacked about one-hundred eighty miles away from Konaha. I had a report from Naruto saying it was your brother. Is this true?"

"Hai," Kyre agreed.

"I know that your brother is Li Kaz, one of the best ninjas in your village before he went rogue. Is this true?"

"Yes."

"Do you think that he will come here in search of you?"

"No."

"Why not?"

"He thinks I'm dead at the moment. By the time he finds out, I'll be long gone from here and this place will be fine."

"Good. I have one request from you."

"Yes?"

"Would you bring Naruto with you on your mission? I heard all about it and I think it will help Naruto improve on his strength."

"Bring…Naruto…with…us???"

"Yes."

"ARE YOU NUTS?!" Kyre screamed.

Tsunade stayed calm, "No, I'm not."

"Naruto's an idiot!! He'll only drag us down!"

"That is possible but don't worry, when it comes to battle, he's good at distracting the opponent."

Kyre twitched her eyebrow.

"I think that you'll need a couple more people with you so I have also assigned team eight to join you."

"Team eight? Who's team eight?"

"They're a tracking team. Hyuuga Hinata, Inuzuka Kiba and Aburambu Shino are in this group."

The three names rang a bell in Kyre's head.

"Them? I remember seeing them like…five minutes ago." Kyre said thoughtfully.

"Yes, they are the best tracking team we have in the chuunin ranks. They are also great fighters so they won't drag you down."

"Great. Hey…what rank is Naruto?"

Tsunade frowned, "Genin."

"GENIN??!!!" Kyre shouted out loud.

Tsunade nodded slowly, "Yamen will be the captain of the team, of course, so he'll have to deal with him."

Yamen twitched the corner of his mouth, "Yes Hokage-sama…"

"You are dismissed."

Kyre and Yamen left with heavily hearts. On the good side, they had a tracker team, on the bad side; they had Naruto to deal with.

They went to the gates of Konaha to wait for the rest of the new formed team. About twenty minutes later, team eight appeared, backpacks hitched onto their backs and a look of determination from each face.

"Hey guys," Kyre greeted them.

"Hello," Hinata answered.

"Greetings," Shino said.

"Yo!" Kiba grinned.

After ten minutes, they saw Naruto running towards them.

"Alright, everyone's here! Let's go!" He yelled and started running down the road.

Kyre watched him run with an expression of disgust on her face.

"Naruto, come back here!" Kyre shouted at him.

Naruto stopped in his tracks and turned around.

"What?"

"As a team, we have to stay a team. Yamen-sensei is out leader and therefore you have to obey him. Got it?" Kyre asked.

"H-hai…"

"Let's go then. Naruto, stay behind me, Hinata, Kiba, Shino, go in front. Here's the map…" Yamen handed Shino the map, "… and we want to get here," Yamen continued, pointing a certain area on the map.

"Sure, we can do that, just follow us!" Kiba said enthusiastically.

"This is easy," Hinata said. She had grown very confident while Naruto was away…although she still couldn't tell him that she liked him.

"Simple," Shino agreed.

"Then let's go," Yamen directed, running past Naruto and into the forest, following team eight.

Kyre ran next to Yamen while Naruto was left in the back.

"Hey, why do I have to stay here?" Naruto asked angrily.

Kyre turned her head around to look at him, "Because you have to guard the back, baka."

"Who are you calling baka, baka!" Naruto shouted.

"Shut up, baka!" Kyre shouted back.

"You guys calm down," Yamen said.

Kyre muttered something under her breath and turned around to face forward, eyes narrowed.

Naruto stuck his tongue out at Kyre's back and pouted.

"I saw that, baka!" Kyre shouted.

Naruto's eyes bugged out of his head with shock, how did Kyre see that? Her head was turned in the opposite direction. He twitched his mouth with frustration.

Nine hours later Yamen decided to stop and set up camp.

"We have plenty of time to get here, so let's rest up," he had said.

Now they were eating around the fire while Kyre and Hinata went on guard for their shift.

Kyre had made clones to patrol the general area while Hinata activated her Byakugan.

Naruto was stuffing his face with easy make ramen while Kiba, Akamaru and Shino ate their food. Talking and laughing enjoying the down time they were having.

Yamen stayed seated next to the fire, watching the flames rise into the air thinking and muttering quietly.

Hinata scanned the area always seeing a clone of Kyre nearby then looking further than usual to see outside the camps perimeter. She had improved greatly and was happy to know that her Father now acknowledged her. She stared into the blackness that was now white and grey because of her Byakugan. Seeing nothing she looked in a different direction.

Kyre was sitting on the ground meditating. She was trying to calm down because she was still fuming over Naruto being in the group. Her clones were sending her information in her mind so that she didn't need to budge.

At that moment, Naruto jumped next to Kyre trying to scare her. It didn't work.

"What do you want, Naruto-baka?" Kyre asked, not bothering to open her eyes,

Naruto yelled at her, "Stop calling me a baka!"

Kyre sighed. She stood up, brushed herself off, and then looked into Naruto's sky-blue eyes.

"I don't need to stop anything, baka," she said calmly.

Naruto's eyes narrowed and then he stalked away; sooner or later he would teach Kyre a lesson.

Kyre sat back down to meditate again. She was going to teach that kid not to mess with her while she was trying to stay calm. She clenched her teeth and closed her eyes. Stay calm…stay calm, she kept repeating to herself. She listened carefully to any news her clones could send her.

"Kyre."

"What the hell do you want?!" Kyre burst out.

"Kyre, calm down, it's me."

Kyre opened her eyes and saw her sensei standing in front of her.

"Gomen…"

"It's okay. I've come to relieve you of your position."

Kyre got up once more and stretched and then dispersed all her clones.

"Thanks Yamen-sensei."

"No problem."

Kyre walked to the fire and sat down. She was so tired. After two days in the hospital and getting healed, she was still tired.

"I'm in for the night," she said after a while and went into her tent, falling asleep on the sleeping bag almost immediately.
