Chapter 5

Telling the Tournament

" Well," Hinata said. " It's a fighting tournament, that happens once every five years at a village. The village is chosen random. I just found out this year, our village had been chosen! The winner is awarded a lot of money." At the mention of money, Naruto's looked up. Money meant ramen. And lots of money meant lots of ramen.

" When is this tournament?" Naruto asked. Hinata smiled.

" Next week." She said. "Oh, I hear my mother. Bye, Naruto! Sakura! Kyuubi!" Naruto's jaw dropped open.

" Next....week?!" he said. Sakura watched Hinata run out the door to a black-haired women, who smiled.

" Hmm, that isn't much time." Sakura said. " But we'd probably would've had less if she hadn't told us." Suddenly, it felt like there was a bonfire behind her.

It was Kyuubi. " I'm SO entering!" She declared. " No one can beat me!" Sakura giggled.

" I bet not." She said. " You're tough."

Kyuubi struck a proud pose. " What about you, Naruto-kun? Will you enter? How about you, Sakura-chan?" Sakura looked up.

" Me?" She said, shocked. " Why me?" Kyuubi gave her a questioning, curious look.

" Saku-chan," She said coolly. " You are a good fighter. Reveal it. I'd like to fight against your wit and skill sometime."

" I wonder who will enter in general..." Sakura said, hastily changing the subject. She didn't want to fight Kyuubi. At all.

" Oh," Naruto said happily. " I bet every ninja, fighter, and warrior here and everyone else too! Who could refuse?" Sakura's heart sunk. Naruto was entering for sure now that he knew about the money.

" I know..."

Gates of Town

At that very moment, some of the people who wanted to enter, and would enter, were striding in.

Mimiko, master of female ninja. Idolized by ninja women everywhere.

Akito, male ninja. Origins and style unknown.

Ikuro, male, brother to Kome. First time in tournament.

Kome, female, old master ninja. Has been in several tournaments and won 3.

Yume, young girl, Origins and style unknown.

" Kome, are you okay?" Ikuro said to his sister. " I told you, you should not have come. You are too old to compete anymore."

" Huh, I can leave it to the youth, Ikuro." Kome said, tiredly. " I'll be fine. All I need is a little bed-rest. What I'm concerned about is that child." She pointed to Yume.

Yume was a sight for vampire-hunters. She was light-skinned, and black-haired, with red eyes with blue rims. " Stop looking at me." She said, with a slight lisp.

Kome suddenly noticed that she was not the only one watching Yume. There was a boy with dark black hair, blue eyes. He was glaring straight at Yume.

" Interesting..."

Outside Ramen Shack

Naruto too was watching the parade of new fighters ramble down the streets. He also noticed the 'black-haired boy'.

" 'Ay, Sasuke!" He said. " Why the look?" Sasuke glared at him.

" Yeah, that's the one." Naruto said happily. " So? What's up?"

" Go away." Sasuke said. Naruto frowned.

" 'Ay, what crawled up your ass and died?" He asked. " You're in a bad mood. What'cha looking at? The little girl? You perv." Sasuke glared at him.

" It's not that." He breathed heavily. " Naruto. Can I trust you?"

Naruto was surprised. Sasuke didn't normally even ask this sort of thing. " Yeah, sure, man."

" That little girl is an Uchida." Naruto looked at him like he was nuts.

" I thought you said everyone in your clan was....um....dead." Naruto said. Sasuke grunted.

" So did I. But I've seen her before. Somewhere." He said. Not that THAT answered the billion questions popping in his brain now.

Sakura walked by.
It was that simple thing that caused Naruto to go a bit woozy and crazy. Sakura....

" So, what about Sakura?" he asked, a bit anxiously. He had to know. What did Sasuke REALLY think of Sakura?

" I like her, but...." Sasuke paused, choosing the correct word. " She....just isn't my type. My type is one who doesn't.....eh....stalk me." Naruto sweatdropped.

He felt someone hit him on the back of his head, and turned around to see who it was. Kyuubi, looking bored.

" Naruto, shouldn't we go home er something....hey, wait..." She had noticed Sasuke. " You?" Sasuke grimaced.

" Yes, me. Miss. Uzumaki." Sasuke said. " I heard you're Naruto's sister." Kyuubi was about to argue, but she realized she was poising as his sis.

" Yeah, what's it to you?" She snapped. She then realized Naruto was gapping at her. " What?"
" This is a festival now! Can't you SEE the Kimono clad ones?" Naruto asked.

" It's a welcoming party. GO! Dress up time!" Kyuubi smiled and scurried off.

" She's interesting." Sasuke said. " So, is she really your sister? Or are you just screwing with us all?"

Naruto smiled his fox smile. " Why EVER would I do that?" Sasuke smirked.

" Why, indeed?" Sasuke realized Naruto was looking behind him in awe.

" That was damn quick, Kyuubi." He said. Sasuke turned to face her. She was clad in a pink kimono, her hair was falling around her shoulders, and she had some very nice necklaces wrapping around her swan neck. She flapped her fan teasingly.

" How do I look, boys?" She asked. " I don't know about this stuff too well."

" You look fine, but is that my dress?" asked Sakura, who popped up behind Naruto, inspecting Kyuubi. " And my necklaces...."
" Beautiful." Sasuke cut in. Sakura and Naruto and Kyuubi stared at him. Kyuubi flipped her fan a bit more.

" Crazy talk. Come on, Naruto, Sakura." Kyuubi said, grabbing both their arms.

" Let's go."

They all bumped into Yume.

She WAS scary. While Naruto helped Sakura up, Kyuubi glared her down. Yume said nothing.

Red eyes, rimmed with blue, sinking deeper and deeper into Kyuubi, startlingly her, scaring her.
" Kyuubi, come on." Was the last thing she heard before she passed out.

Author's note: Thank you all for reviewing and cheering me on. Ask any questions. Yume's weird, eh? New chara for the tournament, which will probably go for a few chapters.

Oh, yes, and on a side note, I kinda thought about the NaruKyuubi couple and obviously altered it a bit...Yeah, don't ask, it probably won't go anywhere, unless anyone wants it to, which might be interesting.
