After a few minutes had passed Markus opened his eye's and was surprised to see that he wasn't in his own inner world anymore. He was standing in a short grass meadow with a clear blue lake in front of him that flowed as far as he can see. He turned around and saw a forest in the distance before looking up at the clear blue sky. Markus took a deep breath as a light breeze blew across the meadow as the deep rage and hatred he had suddenly began to melt away.

"I don't what this place is, but I've never felt so calm." said Markus

"Its my inner world...i call it Heiwana." replied Timothy

Markus looked behind him and saw Timothy walking over the water toward him before stepping pass him.

"Markus you are unique because you where born with the Chakra Beast already in you. Normally when a female that has a Chakra Beast sealed in them gets pregnant the seal only weakens. In your case though it seems that when you were conceived the chakra of the Chakra Beast was transferred over to you." explained Timothy

"What does that mean for me?" asked Markus

"I don't know, but there hasn't been a Jinchuriki like you before. Which bring me to say that even if you thought you were along you never were. Not even from the beginning." assured Timothy

Markus thought about what Timothy was saying and though it was true that he was born with Han in him he had never considered him a friend. How could he since it was because of him that he was also called a monster and was put through so much during his life.

"Have you even tried specking to Han before?" asked Timothy

"Why should I...it was because of that monster that I lost my mother and was branded a monster!" shouted Markus

"Our destiny exercises its influence over us even when, as yet, we have not learned its nature: it is our future that lays down the law of our today. I can't say why this happened to you, but the way this happened makes me think that you two are destined for something great." replied Timothy

"Like what?" asked Markus

"I don't know, but i do know that you won't be able to reach that goal by yourself." shrugged Timothy

"How do i reach it then?" asked Markus

"You'll need Han's help." said Timothy

Markus watched as Timothy began to glow with the blue energy around him again and all of a sudden there was flash of light beside them. When the light finally dimmed Markus saw that Han was now standing beside them.

"What the...where am i?" asked Han in a deep groggy voice as he looked around.

"Your in my inner world." replied Timothy

Han looked down at Timothy and recognized him as the guy who he was fighting before. He then looked over and saw Markus who was staring up at him.

"What's going on here?" asked Han

"Listen you two...i know that you don't get along, but that's going to have to change." stated Timothy

"What does that mean?" asked Han

"Both of you are strong by yourselves, but to get stronger you must learn to work together." remarked Timothy

"There's no way that i'm going to work with him! He ruined my life!" shouted Markus

"The Hidden Sand sealed me away for centuries why should i even consider working with him?" asked Han

Timothy let out a sigh and shook his head, before turning around and walking up a hill and stopping.

"We can't change our past. We can't change the fact that people act in a certain way. We can't change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have and that is our attitude. Listen Han i know that the Hidden Sand shinobi sealed you up, but Markus is not one of those that did that. He isn't the one who you should be did this to you." stated Timothy

Han looked at Timothy and though he hated the sand shinobi he knew that Timothy was right. It wasn't because of Markus that he got sealed up and he knew that it wasn't him that he should be angry at.

"And Markus i can't began to feel how it is not to get a chance to know your mother, but everything that followed after i know how that is. Being called monster isn't the best of names, but you have to realize that when people are afraid they get scared. Another thing you must realize is that even though Han is sealed in you it's not his fault. He didn't choose to be sealed and the fact that his chakra was also drawn to you was also not his fault." stated Timothy

Markus thought about what Timothy was saying and he knew that he was right. He knew that sometimes things happen for a reason and that what had happened to them might have been just that.

"Holding anger is a poison and it eats you from the inside. We think that hating is a weapon that attacks the person who harmed us, but hatred is a curved blade and the harms we do, we do to ourselves. Neither of you chose the path that you've taken, but the animosity that you've got toward each other is hurting the both of you. Now is the chance though that the both of you can change that and show the Hidden Sand that you can become something more."

"What you need to know about the past is that no matter what has happened, it has all worked together to bring you to this very moment and this is the moment you can choose to make everything new. " preached Timothy

Markus and Han lowered their head before looking back up at Timothy and then they looked at each other.

"So are you two willing to give each other a chance?" asked Timothy

"I've been so angry at the world that i never knew that I've never realized that i got more to live for than just myself. I'm willing to try if your willing Han." offered Markus

Han looked down at Markus and though he still had a deep hatred for the sand shinobi he suddenly felt as if he could trust Markus.

"Sure." nodded Han

"Then from now on we're friends and partners." smiled Markus as he held out his hand.

Han had never been called friend or partner by none of his previous Jinchuriki and he liked the sound of it. Timothy watched as Han smiled and held out his claw toward Markus who grabbed it causing him to smile.

"That's what i like to see...now my work here is done." stated Timothy

Markus and Han looked over at Timothy as he began to shine with a blue energy and he suddenly got brighter forcing them to cover their eye's.

...

Meanwhile somewhere in the Hidden Shadow Ikiru was sneaking around trying to find a way out of the village. He hid behind a building and peaked around the corner to see if there was anybody around. He didn't see anybody so he darted across the street and hid behind another house nearly tripping over something. He leaned against the building to rest as he was completely exhausted from his fight with Shia.

"Damn it...everything was planned perfectly. How could everything have gone so wrong?" wondered Ikiru

He remembered what Shia had said about Timothy figuring out his plans to attack the village, but how. Could he have figured it though from whoever was doing the murder or did he learn it from whoever was trying to frame him. Whatever the case his plans were completely ruin by Timothy who had just somehow figured him out. Ikiru suddenly hear ruckus coming from around the building where he was hiding so he got up to check it out.

He peeked out from around the building and he saw Lorey Fenikkusu surrounded by several sand shinobi. He watched as the sand shinobi charged her, but they were suddenly engulfed in a flash of fire which completely incinerated them.

"Running into any of the Hidden Shadows clan leaders right about now is not a good idea." Ikiru thought to himself.

He turned around to look for another ay out of the ally and saw a window which lead into the house in front of him. He walked over to the window and looked into the house to see if anybody was in the house, but saw that it was empty. He shattered the window and went into the house before running to the other window on the other side of the house where he looked out of it to see if anybody was around.

"Looks like your plan didn't work out like you planned." mocked A voice

Ikiru quickly turned around and held out his shotgun, before Antonio walked out of the darkness in the corner of the room.

"It's you." snarled Ikiru

"Well i guess there's not much you can do, but run." mocked Antonio laughing.

"Everything was perfect until somebody started murdering anbu in the village." snarled Ikiru

"Oh me, oh my now i wonder what could've done that." smiled Antonio

"Did you have something to do with that?" asked Ikiru

Antonio walked over to a chair and turned it backwards before looking back at Ikiru and smiling.

"Maybe i did, maybe I didn't" shrugged Antonio

"Why?" asked Ikiru as he held the gun back up at Antonio.

"Don't blame me...It wasn't my fault that your plans failed." smirked Antonio

"Damn you!" shouted Ikiru

He fired the gun, but there was a sudden flash of blue electrical energy and something knock the gun out of Ikiru's hand. All of a sudden the floor began to rise up and wrap around Ikiru's legs before grabbing his arms.

"Your no longer useful to me and i doubt that you'll even make it out of here alive. So allow me to end you life here." smiled Antonio

Antonio got up out of his chair and held up his hand in front of him as it began to surge with blue electrical energy. Ikiru screamed out in terror, but was quickly silenced when Antonio sat his hand on his chest and instantly electrocuted him.
