Naruto walked up to Raeko and Sakura with a foxy grin crossing his face and his hands behind his head. Raeko sensed his presence and turned around, Sakura did the same after.
"Hey Raeko-chan and Sakura-chan, want to go at the Ichiraku to eat some ramen with me?" asked the fox boy.
Sakura was about to decline his invitation, Raeko who saw this stepped on her feet, making Sakura jumped and gasped in pain.
"Sure Naruto" replied Raeko. She then gave a cold look to Sakura. "WE will accompany you, right Sakura?"
"Uh… Um… Sure!" Answered Sakura nervously.
Raeko looked at her sister with those cute irresistible puppy eyes as if she was waiting for her to answer. Maeko sighed and rolled her eyes.
"Whatever, just don't get in trouble, understand?"
"Yes onee-san!" answered a happy Raeko. She and Naruto started running toward the ramen shop while Sakura was trying to catch up with them.
Maeko rolled her eyes once again and thought "And she's supposed to be fear by many people with that hyper personality? Come on"
She started leaving and looked over her shoulder only to see a jounin reading his orange book. "Oh well, see you!"
Kakashi blinked and put his book away. "Wait! I'd like to talk with you about something, would you mind to take a walk with me so we can discuss about it?" asked Kakashi with a hint of seriousness in the tone he used. Maeko raised an eyebrow and nodded. She walked toward him and after the started walking in a forest near by.
"You know that almost every shinobis from Konoha know about your clan and village right?" said Kakashi while looking in front of him.
"Yes, I know. Why are you asking that?" replied Maeko.
"We were allies, yet we didn't know much about you and your clan. Tsunade-sama asked me to ask you some things about it before proposing you something. Now, will answer my questions?"
"Sure…"
"What's your bloodlimit?"
"… Why you want to know that?"
"I already told you, I'm only doing what the Hokage asked me to do after she had known about your presence in your village. Do not fear, we won't do anything to you and your sister."
"Fine. Mine is the Tenjitsu and my sister, whom she doesn't have yet, is the Hyourin. In other words, mine is the power of the sun and my sister's the power of the moon."
"Fire and darkness, ice and darkness. Weird."
"I know but fire fits well with darkness and so are ice and darkness."
"True."
"Any other questions?"
"Just tell me more about it."
"I know that our bloodlimit is unstoppable once activated and that is what you could call… A power for mass destruction."
Kakashi raised an eyebrow and looked at her when she said "A power for mass destruction."
"Explain yourself." Asked or ordered the white haired shinobi.
"All I know is that when my bloodlimit is on its first phase, a black and red aura will surround me. After a kind of barrier will appears around me. No one can go through it. If someone approaches me, it will send some bolt to the person and it could easily cause his or her death. After the sky change color, it turns into a kind of crimson with some black clouds. Everything, become dead except the enemy then it starts raining blood. Everything, the earth even the sky starts turning to a high speed. My eyes turn red, like the color of fire. My aura turns black, like the shadow. The barrier becomes stronger and bigger each minute, the barrier is made of dark energy. Some fireballs start falling down on the earth, killing everyone and burning everything it touches. After… I don't know. That's all I know about my power, all I've told you is all I remember from some old legend that was written on the walls of the Shadow Temple, my temple."
Kakashi looked at her seriously as he nodded slowly.
"Have you ever tried to use it?"
"No. I've told you before, it's unstoppable. I'd be dead by now from using too much chakra and my sister would be too. "
"Hmm… I see."
They headed out of the forest and walked silently to the building where the Hokage office is. Kakashi stopped walking and so did Maeko. He looked at her and smiled a little.
"Would you like to come with me? You could meet the one that made me ask all those questions."
"Sure, why not?"
He smiled once again and opened the door. He stepped aside and let her walk in. They went up the stairs and to Kakashi's surprise; they met no one. They entered in a room, full of papers and scrolls on the floor. There was a desk with a mountain of papers and there was the Hokage, sleeping and drooling over the scroll.
"And that's the fifth hokage? In what world am I!" thought Maeko.
Kakashi sighed and decided to wake the hokage in a smooth way so she won't be yelling at the top of her lungs when she'll wake up.
"Tsunade-sama, I am here with everything you asked me to ask to Arusai Maeko. She's even with me." Said Kakashi in a rather bored tone.
Tsunade kept sleeping and impatient like Maeko was, she decided to take the hard way. She walked toward the desk and smirks.
"ALL THE CASINO OF KONOHA HAD BEEN DESTROYED! I REPEAT NO LOTTERY GAMES OR POKER GAMES ANYMORE!" yelled Maeko, which was totally out of her calm character. Kakashi hit his forehead.
"Oh crap…" thought the white haired jounin.
Tsunade suddenly wide opened her eyes and jumped out of her chair. "WHAT DID YOU SAY!"
"Hello Tsunade-sama." Said Maeko as she smirks, happy that her plan worked.
Tsunade twitched slightly and looked at both Kakashi and Maeko. "What is your purpose here? Better be a good reason…"
Kakashi explained everything that Maeko told him, while the raven-haired girl looked at the city through the window.
Tsunade listened carefully to Kakashi and glanced over Maeko when he finished. She closed her eyes thoughtfully and re-opened them, sure about her decisions.
"Since Konoha was a great ally of your village… And that your village has been destroyed by our enemy, would you like, you and your sister, be one of Konoha's shinobis?"
Maeko thought for a moment then looked at Tsunade. "Yes." Was her only response.
"Fine, you aren't classed in any ninja rank are you?"
"Not that I know."
"I see… Your sister, what is she able to do?"
"She can use some medic jutsus and she knows all the basic jutsus. If you want my advance, she would be around the genin level."
"Ok… Then I think we'll put her in a team for now, as for you… With all the things Kakashi told me, you seem to be a powerful kunoichi… I think your abilities are the one of a jounin. Both of you and your sister will be in Kakashi's team for now. Tommorrow you will get youe hitai-ate. You are dismissed."
Kakashi and Maeko bowed in respect and left. They went outside of the building and saw Maeko and Naruto coming. Kakashi raised an eyebrow and saw that someone was missing.
"Where's Sakura?" asked Kakashi.
"Oh well, Naruto and I were laughing at some jokes and his bowl of ramen fell on her so she went at her home to change and well… She didn't come back." Said Raeko.
The jounin rolled his eyes and sighed. Maeko smirked slightly, being amused by the situation.
"That's my sister…" Thought the older girl.
