Ichi's POV

"Hey, Ichi, who's that girl, she looks familiar?" Said Naruto in a whisper.

"She is Yumi Amichi, part of a clan of Saiken fighters."

"You mean to tell me she drinks alcohol at that age?"

"That's right."

"But isn't that illegal?"

I look at him and squint, at first cause he asked a stupid question, but after a few seconds, it was because his eyes were slitted.

"Naruto, calm down, right now!" I jump and pin him to the ground, kunai at his thought.

He looks at me startled and said "Ichi, what are you doing! Did I cross a line?"

'Idiot doesn't even notice? Does that mean the fox is progressively becoming more one with Naruto?'

"Naruto, your eyes are slitted and red" I say bluntly, getting off him.

"What? I didn't even get angry or nothing!" He performs a seal and 'poof' He looks normal again.

"You know Naruto, that henge will only keep draining more of your chakra, and something tells me that as you get more things to add to the hiding list, it will become too much."

Naruto looks startled at the realization, then looks at me pleadingly, "Ichi, you're smart right? What do I do?"

I anime twitch at the comment but say, "Ok dobe, first things first, you gotta stop relying on the fox's power, that seems to speed up the transformation, Secondly, I am willing to help you hide this if you do whatever I say, and you have to do them, even if you don't know why."

Naruto would usually burst out that he would never agree, but, "Ok, Fine, Whatever you have planned better work."

'Guess the foxes influence changed that too?'

"But you gotta tell me why afterword's, or else!"

'There we go, that's the Naruto we know!'

"Ok, now to answer your earlier question, when a shinobi becomes a ninja, legally, they are considered adults, so it isn't really illegal." I stated. The match was about to begin, and I saw that Sakura was a bit nervous. She probably shoulda learnt something useful.

"The match begins…NOW!" The propter jumps out of the ring, and Yumi pulls out a small bottle that had a seal on it. She began to drink the contents and almost immediately fell into a swaying stance.

Sakura enters a stance and starts to frown, thinking up ways to win, and then she has a revelation.

She runs at Yumi and shouts, "Bushin!"

Two copies appear and she shuffles during the run to make sure she doesn't know who the real one is; Yumi shrugs and takes another drink, knowing full well that she is approaching. Sakura, when within distance pulls shuriken, as dose her clones and gets into a triangle formation around the multicolored-hair girl.

All of the Sakura's throw shuriken, shouting "Shuriken Bushin!" creating more shuriken and creates a swarm of metal that approaches the target.

Yumi looks up and notices that she is surrounded, but nonchalantly gets up and gets back into her stance. She begins to dodge all of the shuriken with the grace of a dancer, mixed with the drunken movements, deflecting whatever she couldn't dodge with a kunai, if it were real.

She failed to see the kunai that was coming from above, with Sakura not far behind it in the air above. She had thrown the kunai with a tag on it. Yumi didn't see it coming.

"Whoa! I didn't think Sakura had a chance!" I say aloud, being caught by Naruto.

"Well now you know that Sakura isn't useless!" Naruto said, seemingly reading my mind.

ON the other side of the stadium

"Shit! YUMI! That pink bitch killed her!" Said Mac; startled that Sakura, the girl that was supposed to be useless, could actually fight.

"The unexpected should always be expected in this world, everyone has the potential to be noticed." Said EMO, with a touch of Sage old wisdom.

"That is fukken stupid, you basically saying that, Oh, you were referring to me (Double meaning, apparently)…did you read my mind when you put up the seal?"

"I know about your past life, about this fake world, and about how you plan to deal with it. If the cycle of death and life repeats, and one always remembers, you can go insane with the thought of making friends and grieving every time you lose them, you can then attempt to lessen that pain with avoidance, so that you have less people to miss and grieve over." EMO said before Mac cut him off.

"Bored now, Look, fight!"

"I wish I could look upon life the way you do." Said EMO.

Back to fight!

The smoke was beginning to clear, and Sakura was panting, having used a ton of chakra to create THREE clones and all their shuriken, none of that was real, almost a real life genjutsu, only the explosive end was real.

Under the rubble was Yumi, seemingly out cold. Sakura smiled while inner Sakura fist pumped the air, shouting the signature 'CHA!'

Then Yumi started melting, and was revealed to be MUD!

"Ok, you are pretty good, but if that's the best you got, then you better hope I don't kill you!" Said Yumi from behind Sakura, kunai to her through.
