Ten Tails of the Gods


Summary: She was normal. She had her perfections, her faults. She had a normal life, but something went horribly wrong...and now...a burden that could kill her is put upon her. With her friends with her, can she overcome this? Or will it kill her? She has only her friends, Naruto, Sasuke, Hinata, Sakura and others, plus her half-brother, Neji, to help her…but will it be enough to save her?

Time placement: After the two year jump, but i didn't feel like putting some characters in their new outfits, so i just kept them the same. Tvs, phones, an stuff like that exists.

Notes to ya'll: Written in first person, of none other than Neji's sister herself. Jumps from person to person at times, so ya'll can see what they feel an think.

Pairings: Um...mainly, SasuxOc...NaruxHina...maybe a lil of...LeexSaku...and NejixTen or NejixOc.

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, or i wouldn't be writing FanFics. The only things i own are the Oc's and the plot.

Last time"Your mission…for quite some time, is to clean out this room."

"But, Hokage-sama!!! This is gonna take FOREVER!!!" Naruto whined.

I felt like whining too. But I didn't.

She headed for the door and before slipping out, she said, "Well…then I suggest you get started."

"WAIT." Neji said, making her stop and look back.

In an exasperated sigh she asked, "What?"

"Are we at least getting paid?"

She looked up in thought. "Nope." And the door shut.

"Yippee."

Sasuke's Pov

So a couple hours after the Hokage send us on a wonderful mission, we had cleaned out only a few boxes on one side of the room. They contained some of the strangest things I had ever seen someone keep. Old scrolls, dull kunai, clothes…just anything.

Some of us, mainly Naruto and Kyoko (who gets oddly hyper and playful when he's around) found enjoyment out of it. How and why, I don't know.

But as we continued to clean, out of the corner of my eye I saw Kyoko heading off down the room, looking around at all the boxes. "Kyoko!!!" I avoided adding the –koi, seeing Neji look over and glare at me. "Stay over here! We haven't started that side yet and we don't know what's in these boxes. You could get hurt!"

She turned her head, still focused on the boxes and mindlessly said, "Okay… I'll do that..." But…she continued to walk on.

"Oh, let her go…if she gets in trouble we'll hear it. She did this all the time back at the spa." Rao assured, chuckling.

"Alright…" I wasn't exactly open to the idea…I mean, there could be giant shuriken or something here that she could really get hurt on. She isn't one to practice safety…

CRASH!!!

We all looked in the direction Kyoko had gone.

Rao looked over at me. "See. I told you we'd hear her."

Kyoko's Pov

Hey…why did it get suddenly dark?

You see, I didn't ever hear what Sasuke said, cause I wasn't paying attention and walked on, seeing a box with something white hanging from it.

And ofcourse I had to play with it. But…somehow my nail got caught as I jumped…and it all fell down…as did I…and now it's all dark….

Something plopped into my lap.

What's this…it feels like a scroll…

Then, suddenly, it got bright and the scroll…was actually a note. "Kyoko! I told you not to…"

I ignored him for the time being. "To my son…Naruto. I am heartbroken to say that I may just have to sacrifice myself and you to save Konoha…to stop the Kyuubi and seal it within you. Over the course of the days past, I have seen no other way. But, I am writing this for another reason…. I fear that Konoha will not be kind to you, despite the fact that you are it's savior. I want you to know that you had a father and a mother that loved you very much. I believe in you more than anyone on this earth. I do hope to see how much you've grown when you pass into the afterlife. When you find this, please give it to the current Hokage. If she/he sees fit…you, Naruto, will become the next Hokage. Sincerely, The 4th Hokage, Yondaime, your father."

When I looked up from my seated position, everyone was silent and looking at me.

Naruto, the most amazed of the bunch, looked at me, holding a white jacket with red flames on it. "…I…I had family?"

We were all silent.

"…H-he was my dad?" A smile seemed to grow on his face. Then, he really grinned. "OH HELL YES!!! I'M NEXT HOKAGE!!!" He said in a sing-songy voice, beginning to jump around and continuing to scream and shout in happiness.

I saw Sasuke and Neji look at each other, concerned, almost as if they were saying, "Oh, hell no."

Then, down the hall, the door opened and a couple seconds later, the Hokage came up. "What's all the racket? I was just about to win a game of poker."

Neji sighed. "Kyoko, show her what you found."

I nodded. "Okay." And handed her the scroll.

She skimmed through it, her face turned to complete surprise. "…I…I never knew about this…"

"Obviously, no one did." Neji stated, watching as Naruto bounced around the room. Hinata was trying to stop him…or at least get him to stop bouncing around.

"Maybe Sarutobi did…he was alive at the time. " Sasuke said.

She shrugged her shoulders. "Maybe."

I brushed the miscellaneous items that sat in my lap off of me and got up, leaving Sasuke Neji, Sakura and the Hokage to discuss the letter, while I went over with Naruto, Hinata, Rao and Lee to rejoice.

When Naruto noticed me walking up, he got this huge grin on his face and ran up to me, picking me up like always and spinning me around. "DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I OWE YOU, KYOKO-CHAN?!?!!?!"

But…all of a sudden…I didn't feel too good…. "YOU DON'T HAFTA OWE ME ANYTHING IF YOU PUT ME DOWN BEFORE I PUKE!!!!"

He stopped pretty quick and set me down, as I fell backwards, opting to lay on the floor. After a couple seconds of seeing the whole room spin, I shut my eyes. Now I really don't feel good…

I heard someone walk over and kneel down. "Dizzy?"

"…I don't feel too good…" I mumbled.

I figured it was Sasuke…and he put his hand on my forehead, brushing back my bangs. "Yeah…you feel a little warm." He stopped for a second. "Hey guys, we're gonna cut this a little short…" He directed that to everyone else.

But hey, I was happy. I wasn't feeling good, but I get to go home!!!

"Before you go," Just like a brother to ruin everything, huh? "I wanna talk to you in private." Neji said, probably pointing to some other spot like he always does.

"Sure." Sasuke agreed, but as Neji walked away, he lingered for a second. "Watch her for me, will you Hinata?"

"Of course."

Then, he walked off as Hinata made me sit up and lean against the wall. "If you're gonna puke just warn us first, okay?"

I chuckled. "I'll try."

Neji's Pov

"So…what's up?" Sasuke asked as we stood out of hearing distance from the group.

"Nothing much. I just have a couple questions for you."

He didn't seem to care. "Okay."

I sighed. "First question. You two are engaged, aren't you?"

He blinked in surprise and after a moment of silence he quietly asked, "How'd you find out?"

I chuckled. "I overheard the phone conversation because Rao screamed."

He nodded. "Makes sense. Girls always do scream when they're excited." He rolled his eyes.

Laughing, I replied, "Yeah, they do. But my second question is a little more…serious."

"Alright."

Lowering my voice down to a whisper I asked, "Ya know with her getting sick so easy from being spun around, which she never did get sick before, I want to know. Is she… pregnant?" I HAD TO KNOW. HAD. I mean, you would want to know too, wouldn't you?

He seemed dumbfounded and then shook his head no. "No! Of course not!!"

I sighed a very huge sigh of relief.

"I think it's something she ate…but no…we, her and I, talked about this. About sex and kids and such. Your sister has morals, you know. She told me years ago that she didn't want to have sex until she was married, that way she knew she would be in love. And I totally respect that. So, you don't need to worry until after we're married." He explained.

"Oh. Okay then…"

Awkward silence.

"Yeah…I think I'm gonna take her home now." He turned around and walked back toward the group, picking up Kyoko and leaving in a poof of smoke as Rao came up to me.

"Are you being annoying again?" She asked, sliding her hands around my neck.

I smirked. "Define "annoying"."

She chuckled, looking up in thought. "Okay…Hm…"annoying"…I would say that that is…NEJI HYUUGA." She looked back at me and smiled.

I opened my mouth.

"Well at least when it concerns Kyoko."

I grinned. "Though, when she's concerned, I'm allowed to be annoying."

"To a point." She corrected, standing up on her tiptoes and kissed me.

"HEY YOU LOVE BIRDS!! WE'VE GOT WORK TO DO!!!" Naruto yelled at us, also pointing at us and making everyone else look.

"Alright, alright. We're coming." I said back as Rao let me go and we walked up to the group.

"You can refer to me as Naruto-SAMA, seeing as how I'm gonna be Hokage!!" He said smugly, holding his fathers' jacket in his hands.

"FAT CHANCE."


Kyoko's Pov

Oh god…I don't think teleporting was a good idea…

The second we got into the house, I bolted for the bathroom, ignoring Sasuke who eventually followed me.

UGH…I hate getting sick…

Sasuke's Pov

So…I guess teleporting wasn't the best thing to do, since Kyoko ran for the upstairs bathroom.

I didn't bother to yell or anything. I mean, I wouldn't expect her to turn around and carry a conversation or anything. But I did follow her, seeing her head to my bathroom and not hers.

She did manage to shut and lock the door, leaving me to hear her throw up. Still, was it any different that seeing it? Either way, it was disgusting to hear.

After a couple minutes, I teleported in, finding her just sitting there in front of the toilet. Before she got a chance to speak, I pulled her hair behind her ear and out of her face.

"Thanks…" She said quietly, burping a little as well. "I really think it was whatever I ate last night…"

"Well…I don't think we'll know what it was for sure…you ate a lot last night." I said, smiling.

She burped again. "I always eat a lot o…f…" She cut off, wavering forward slightly.

After pulling her hair back and out of her way, I gently rubbed her back. "Take your time."

She inched over to me, setting her head on my shoulder, sighing. "I feel better now."

I laughed, still rubbing her back. "Of course you do. You wanna head downstairs and relax?"

She looked up at me. "But what if I – "

"I'll get a bucket and then you can go wherever you want." I replied, cutting her off.

"And what about work? I can't call in sick tomorrow." She said.

"Yes you can. I'll call the Hokage and tell her you're sick." I assured her.

She growled happily. "Okay then…Let's head downstairs!!!"

I smirked. "Alright…but no peanut butter."

As we teleported downstairs, she screamed, "WHAT?!" She curled up on the couch, grabbing a pillow as I left the room, getting a bucket from under the sink. When I walked back in the room, I said, "Until you're better at least." I put the bucket beside the couch and sat next to her, in which she scooted over to me.

She kept moving around until she got quite comfortable and sighed in content. "I don't know if I'll last that long." She teased.

"I think you can." I said, reaching over her and grabbing the remote on the table and flipping on the tv.

She giggled. "You think so."

I put my finger on her nose like always, which she focused on it. "I know so. You'll survive cause you're in love and you're gonna get married."

"I am?" She asked, still looking at my finger.

I smiled. "Yep."

She closed her eyes, leaning on me and sighed. "Okay. G'night."

I chuckled, as she laced her hands with mine. "Sweet dreams."


After about 15 minutes, she was completely asleep and I was about to get up and take her up to bed, but the front door opened.

"Hey gu – " Bri stopped short as she and Itachi walked in. "Oh, sorry." She whispered, seeing Kyoko asleep. "But…we've got some good news! Why don't you come into the kitchen?"

I nodded. "Sure…just let me take her upstairs."

"Okay." She and Itachi walked into the kitchen, while I took Kyoko upstairs and to bed.


Coming back downstairs, I found the two of them on the couch, sharing a kiss.

I walked over to a chair saying, "Get a room, you two."

They broke apart and Bri looked over at me. "We have a room."

"We just don't use it." Itachi added.

I rolled my eyes. "I see that…but what did you want to tell me?"

They took a second to stop kissing, sat up and Bri had a huge grin on her face. "Well…we have some good news for you and Kyoko…"

"And this good news is?"

They looked at each other and then looked back at me. "Okay…well…" She seemed hesitant until Itachi grabbed her hands. "I'm pregnant."

I blinked. "I'm sorry…did you just say…that you're pregnant?"

She nodded, giggling and grinning. "Yep."

I took a second to think. "If you're pregnant…than that means…Oh, ewwww!!!"

Itachi laughed. "Well…what'd you think, Sasuke? You can't have kids if you don't have sex."

"I don't want to know about your personal life, thanks!!" I retorted.

"Oh come on, you know you want to hear alllllll about it!!" He took a breath, like he was going to continue.

"Itachi!! Stop torturing him!!" THANK YOU BRI!!! "But," She continued, a little more seriously. "We decided that we're gonna move out and into one of the other houses…I mean, we could always change Kyoko's old room…but we don't want to do that."

I was a little surprised. "Really? Well…congratulations."

"But we're not gonna move out until we clean up one of the other houses – "

"So, you'll be here for a while then." I finished.

"Yep." She agreed, standing up, pulling Itachi up with her. "We're gonna head up to bed."

I raised an eyebrow. "Alright…I'm gonna stay up for a little bit."

At the same time they said, "Good night." And went upstairs, while I went back to the couch and back to my tv show.

"Night."

--XX--

Maybe half an hour after Bri and Itachi went upstairs, I was on the couch, the footrest pulled out. I really didn't feel like going up to bed yet, so I found something to watch. And as the commercials came on, I heard one of the doors upstairs open.

I looked at the stairs to see Kyoko coming down the stairs, eyes closed – and in my clothes no less.

She walked over to the couch, got on the seat next to me, crawled over to me and curled up next to me, using my shoulder as a pillow, going back to sleep. She did all of this with her eyes closed.

"Kyoko, what are you doing?" I asked, looking down at her.

She nuzzled my shoulder. "Well…It was quiet…and I was a little lonely…plus it was cold without you." She said quietly, falling asleep.

I couldn't help but smile. "Alright." I reached up behind her, to the middle of the couch and pulled down the blanket, unfolded it and put it over both of us.

She growled happily as I wrapped my arm around her.

"Good night, Sasuke-koi." She mumbled sleepily.

I yawned. "Sweet dreams."

Brianna's Pov

"Itachi!" I whispered.

He didn't move from his sleeping spot on the bed.

I sighed. "ITACHI!!"

Shocked, he sat up, finally rolling off the bed. "What?!" He snapped, looking up at me with narrowed eyes.

I grabbed his hand, trying to pull him up. "You've got to come see this!!"

He raised an eyebrow. "See what?"

I rolled my eyes. "You'll see it if you come with me."

"Fine." He took a second to get up and followed me.

I led him out of the room and down a couple steps. "Look at the couch." I said, whispering and grinning at the same time.

He rolled his eyes from me getting him up, but he did as I told. When he looked at the couch, he got this little smirk on his face. "I think I smell a blackmail moment."

"Itachi! We can't do that!" I whispered.

He looked over at me. "You broke the camera again, didn't you?"

I looked down. "…Yeah…"

He put his finger on my chin and pushed it up so that our eyes met. He was smirking like mad. "That's why I bought a new camera."

My jaw dropped. "You didn't!!"

He nodded. "I did." And thus, quickly, he went back into our room grabbed a camera and came back out.

We smiled at each other and quietly went downstairs.

You see, I guess sometime after Itachi and I went to bed…Kyoko had come down on the couch with Sasuke, because they were both there – sleeping, as matter of fact. They looked adorable!!

She was curled up next to him, using his shoulder as her pillow, while he had his arm draped around her, his head tilted toward her. From under the blanket, I could see her hands were laced with his.

Even Kuroi was with them, his head on Kyoko's waist, right below where Sasuke had his arm.

And while I waited on the steps (because if they did wake up, I'd blame it all on Itachi) Itachi stalked down the steps and over to the couch, taking pictures.

Suddenly, Kyoko whined, making Itachi stop dead in his tracks. She yawned, lifting her head a little bit, but never opening her eyes. A second later she set her head back down, sighed and continued to sleep. If she had opened her eyes, the first thing she would've seen was Itachi and probably would've screamed, waking up everyone…and then…oh, that wouldn't've been fun…

Itachi sighed in relief and stalked back up the steps and over to me. "That was a little too close…but I got some good shots."

"Oh really?" I moved closer to him, looking at the camera as he turned it on.

"Yeah…I can't wait to use these." He handed the camera to me and I scrolled through the pictures. "But, how are you? No morning sickness or anything?"

I laughed softly. "No…I'm fine. I'm only what…3 weeks?"

"Still."

I looked over at him. "I'm okay. But, we should be heading for the spa you know. We need to spread the good news."

"We?" He said shortly.

I laughed again. "Yes, we."

"Okay." Suddenly, he picked me up as he stood up.

"Itachi!!"

He smiled at me and walked up the stairs. "Alright, alright." He put me down.

"Wait a minute…I never said put me down."

He shook his head at me. "But…" He looked at me. "…Nevermind." He gave up trying to figure out women, which he should've done a long time ago, but picked me up again and walked into our room.

--XX--

Itachi's Pov

It didn't take me long to get ready…about five minutes to be exact…but while Bri continued to get ready, I took the liberty of calling the Hokage for Kyoko and Sasuke, telling her that they wouldn't be in today. But, to my surprise, it wasn't the Hokage who answered the phone…

"Yeah, you've reached the Hokage!! What's up?"

I blinked."Where's the real Hokage?"

"I AM THE HOKAGE, BELIEVE IT."

I sighed. "Naruto, give the phone to Tsu – " I heard a squabble over the phone.

"HEY, GIVE IT BACK!!"

"Naruto, you aren't Hokage yet!! You can't – GIVE THAT BACK YOU LITTLE "

"HAHAHAHA!!!!! I'M BETTER THAN YO – "

Suddenly…it got very quiet…and I thought about hanging up. Did Tsunade kill him off or something? …Actually…I don't think I want to know…

Tsunade sighed. "I am sooo sorry about that…he's a little…demented right now."

I was silent for a moment. "What exactly did you do to him?"

"I think you don't want to know. But anyways, what did you call about Itachi?"

"Okay…Well, Kyoko got si…Wait, you're saying Naruto's gonna be Hokage?"

She sighed in exasperation. "Yes, Itachi…you'll find out more later. Now, seriously, what did you call about?"

I was a little dumbfounding, wondering why Tsunade would hand the title over to him, but said, "Well…Kyoko got sick yesterday, so both she and Sasuke won't be in today."

"Sasuke's sick too?"

I chuckled. "No…he's busy taking care of her."

She laughed. "Alrig - …well…that actually won't work. Today's the day the sensei's are getting their squads. I need him to come in today."

I thought for a second, looking downstairs at the three still sleeping on the couch. "You know what? Just send them over here. Tell them to ring the doorbell." I said, smirking.

"That would work. Okay then. I guess I'll talk to you later?"

"Eventually."

"HEY!! THAT'S MY JOB!!!!!!"

"Oh, gotta g – "

And suddenly…the line went dead.

Slowly, I put down the phone…

"Itachi-koi?"

I looked up to see Brianna coming out of our room.

"What was that about?" She asked, walking up to me, putting her arm around mine.

I shook my head. "You don't want to know…and I don't think you'd understand because I don't." I answered.

She gasped. "My God not understanding something?! The world's going to end!!!" She teased.

"Eh. It could end or not. I really don't care." I said flatly, beginning to perform hand seals.

She looked at me with her mouth open. "Itachi!!"

"What?" I asked stupidly.

She sighed, closing her eyes. "Nothing…just do your teleporting thing."

"Way ahead of you." And we vanished.
