"I wonder what they're planing," Ino said as she began to walk away, they had originally gone to the restaurant to get something to eat but she didn't think it was a good idea now
"You know we could just ask," Shikamaru said to her
"So Naru" Shikamaru was about to ask Naruto something when he felt a dark presence beside him and he noticed a dark shadow growing around Naruto.
He watched as the shadow grew, but every time the shadow was about to pull itself away from Naruto the wind would slam on the shadow forcing it back into place.
Shikamaru and Ino watched as the scene created itself in front of them.
This strange power was something that would happen from time to time, but whenever that happened their teacher would help naruto control the shadow until it calmed down again.
Now however something else was keeping this strange power, under control.
'Naruto" Ino said to Naruto who seemed to be in a trance, she called to him over and over again until her voice finally reached him and he turned to look at her.
"What was that?" Shikamaru asked Nauto who began to look around in confusion until he saw something floating on top of him.
"Did my shadow?" Naruto began to ask them but a strange figure lowered itself in front of Naruto and hit him on the head, before waving a finger at him.
It was as if the spirit was scolding Naruto for losing control.
'Sorry Blade" Naruto said to the wind spirit who vanished from sight as soon as Baruto apologized.
'What was that?" Ino asked Naruto
"Oh that was Blade, Mini said I could borrow him until I could control my spirit" Naruto answers Ino
"So that was it," Shikamaru said as he looked at Naruto and as both Ino and Naruto looked at him with expressions filled with curiosity he began to explain what he meant.
"Naruto you and Mini are either related or you have similar abilities, it's probably why David adopted you," Shikamaru said to Naruto but as the words left his mouth, he realized how rude he sounded.
he was going to apologize, but he saw how Naruto immediately began to nod.
"Yeah I know, the girls told me," Naruto said to Shikamaru before he began to walk away from the restaurant.
"I mean even I know, that orphans aren't allowed to live in the main house unless they're related to someone, but I don't know who," Naruto said to them as he walked
'What o you mean?" Ino asked him
"It's hard to explain, out here people didn't treat me the same way as everyone else, but when I'm in the Senju's area, it's like I'm just another person," Naruto said to them as he tried to explain something he barely understood himself.
"It's the reason I wear the coat outside of the clan's area, Imean ever since I moved there, its always been me and everyone else"
"David and Mark are the ones in charge and of everyone and everyone's happy, but ever since his wife came back things have been..."
"I don't know, I know it doesn't make sense because they are always working, but I don't want them to leave"
"Everyone there is like me, they all have one ability or another and we all get along, but if the ones that made that possible" Naruto said to them as he tried to hold back his tears.
Despite only living in the clan's compound for a short time he had somehow happily settled in and didn't want things to change.
"Relax they can't just leave anyway,"
"I mean David's married to Tsunade someone important to the village" Shikamaru explained to naruto
"Relax we aren't leaving anytime soon," Mini said to Naruto as she pointed at the window where everyone was waving at them
"It's a window, it works both ways," Mini said to them as Blade floated to her side
Shikamaru and Ino looked at each other as Mini walked up to Naruto, they expected her to punish him for spying on her and the rest of her team, but to their, surprise Mini just place a hand on Naruto's head.
"Blade told me you were losing control so I came to see what was wrong," she said to him with a kind smile
Shikamaru and Ino watched as Mini reached into her pocket and took out a piece of paper that was in the shape of a person.
The figure was completely white and had nothing except what looked like a drop of water drawn on it.
"I'm going to need Blade so you're going to need someone to help you control that spirit of yours, I don't know who you are going to get but Naruto it's up to you to listen to him or her" Mini said to Naruto as she handed him the pice of paper
"Close your eyes and forget about the world, I don't exist until I tell you I exist"
"Think of someone anyone that you want to meet, " Mini said to Naruto as the piece of paper began to glow
"'your life is its life, why because she\ he is a part of you," Mini said to Naruto as finally let go of him
Shikamaru and Ino as well as everyone that was just going about their day stopped and watched the piece of paper fly out of Nautos hand and begin to change.
"Naruo open your yes," Mini said to Naruto and Naruto found himself looking at a girl with long red hair standing next to Mini
"Hey, I'm Naruto," Naruto said to the girl who was happily smiling at him
"It's nice to meet you I'm Kushina" the spirit introduced herself to Naruto, before running up to Naruto and holding him in a tight hug
"I dint expect that," Mark said as he walked up to Mini who was happily looking at the scene in front of her
'Mark, what happened?" Mini asked Mark
"His power was so strong that it pulled memories from the past and gave them a new form"
"Think about it this way, she was like Blade and Flare, but that kid has so much power that she was able to make a body for herself, but it's not perfect half of her is here but the other half is somewhere else" Mark explained to Mini
"So is she human or is she a spirit?" Shikamaru asked Mark
"Both, but as far as you, me, and everyone else is concerned, that girl hugging Naruto is Human. What I mean is that she will grow up, get married, and die, just like everyone else"
"At least that's what Flare is telling me," Mark said to Shikamaru as Flare and Blade floated towards Naruto and Kushina
The spirits roared and Kushia immediately let go of Naruto.
"Why?" she said to the two spirits who just roared at her again
"What's going on?" Ino asked Mini
"They're saying that she broke the rules and now has to lose her memories," Mini said to Ino
"Because the dead are meant to stay dead and to stay dead and if they come back a price has to be paid" Mark added
Everyone watched as the rest of the spirits arrived and began to circle Kushina who looked at Naruto with a sad expression.
"Don't move or you will lose her" Mark said to Naruto who was about to interfere
everyone watched as the spirits graved a piece of Kushina and threw it into Naruto
"She was always a part of you," David said to Naruto as he walked out of the restaurant
"Now on the other hand she is more like your big sister, so take care of her and you no matter what happens don't do it," David said to Naruto and Kushina, no one knew what David was talking about and didn't dare ask him what he meant
"Naruto why don't you and your friends go show your new big sister around, we still have things to do here" Mark sid to Naruto
As both Shikamaru and, Ino heard him say this they were both aware that Mark had just told them to go away but he was being nice about it.
"You sure about this?" Mark asked David
"Yeah, let's shake this birdcage as much as we can before they kill us or try to lock us away" David answered Mark
Mini didn't know what the two were talking about and to be honest, she didn't care, the only thing she cared about right now was not letting her food get cold.
[So remember how both Mark ad David ended up killing a lot of people after they either brought to life a lot of zombies or one single fully intact Human, a price has to be paid]
