Chapter One: The Return to Konoha and Visions.

Taraka walked after Kakashi, she glanced back only once to the wooden cabin which had been her home for years. She had been training and living there for over ten year's since the Uchiha massacre that had occured, Arashi her only company. Kakashi however, had been up to train her every so often on order's by the hokage. She walked silently lost withing her own path of thoughts and slightly tilted her head to look at her Sensei.
"Kakashi-sensei?" She muttered almost inaudibly.
"Hm?"
"When was the last attack with Orochimaru?"
"I told you, you cannot get involved."
"...I'm not saying I was."
"A month ago. Konoha's forces had been strengthened since then."
"Right." Slightly irritated without the answer she wanted she grew silent once again as they passed through the rugged trails of the mountainside and deep forest until Konohagakure drew even closer.
As the village gates came in full view, Taraka grew silent. She glared at the moutainside with the Hokages from each time depicted, her cold features dropping into a slightly more eased one. As the gates opened she stopped and dropped her bag, taking in the wonderful sight of the city which she had returned too. "I'm home."

Kakashi looked to her a smile under his mask and put up his hand, "Well I've got to go, I'm sure you remember how to get to the Uchiha district from here?"She nodded without shifting her gaze, she began to walk to the very place she called home, in dire need of sleep, however slightly uneasy at the though of returning to her clan where the massacre had happened..

"Arashi, come." She said picking up her bag and repositioning it to her back. Arashi followed her on her heels again, as they passed through several districts until finally reaching the Uchiha district. Her mind psychologically began playing thoughts into her head, picturing the streets littered with corpses, and she could still smell death on the streets. Her eyes looked at the barren, lonely streets, and what seemed to be endless darkness. She started to tremble, Arashi whimpered a small tone as if an 'are you alright' her eyes did not move off of the door in fear of the same corpses laying split open in the darkness. She slid open the door and immediatley flicked on the lights, to illuminate the room.Nothing. Unable to shake the feeling of death which resided within the room, her trembling grew as she placed her back onto the ground. Slowly she eased her body onto a matress, her same matress in her old room which she had before the massacre. Arashi leapt beside her on the cold matress and lay down, as the Uchiha fell into a troubling sleep.

Blazing crimson Sharingan spun wildly around the user's eye. Blood painted the walls of Konoha, corpses lay around in millions by number alone. An immense purple chakra emulating off of the silhouetted body that stand upon a cracked skull, triumphantly laughing at the entire scene. A serpent wrapping around the maniac's leg, and began to embelish the figure into it's body as one.

SNAP

The Uchiha quickly rose to her feet covered in a cold sweat. She grabbed ahold of her neck in pain and looked down on her left arm to see her curse spreading over her body. Orochimaru, two years ago had discovered the survival of the Uchiha, and left her the mark for his own doing. She trembled, standing up and heading off to the training grounds with her weapons to train the rest of the early morning.

Akamaru, a small brown puppy cantered around the training grounds around noon, a brown haired man following after him. "Yeah! Good boy Akamaru!" He shouted to his dog, who had been using his territotial air marking. Entering the grounds, Akamaru haulted and began to growl sensing a presence around. Kiba petted him, "What's a matter buddy?" He said to his parnter. His animalistic eyes shifted to Taraka laying under a nearby oak tree against Arashi. Taraka's hand badly bruised and bloody from training and hitting the wooden training dummies with immese force. Kiba approached her stepping on a few of the scattered broken pieces with a look of curiousity for he had never met her before. Takara paniced and woke up at the sound of the twigs snapping,charging directly toward Kiba with a kunai knife and immediatley stuck it near his neck.
"WHO ARE YOU!" She hissed.

Dumbfounded and alarmed at the same time, Kiba quickly countered. "Who are you? I found you sleeping here! No need to bite my head off!"
Forgetting she had not lived alone again she dropped back rubbing her eyes. "...S...Sorry. I'm not accustomed to being with anybody, I've just returned last night. I am Uchiha Taraka and this is Arashi" She stated acknowleding her wolf who sat sleeping behind her.

Kiba stared at her, "Uchiha?" He grew silent,contemplating this momentarilythen recalled overhearing the return of a Uchiha, but not some girl. He inspected her, and he rwolf suspiciously. Taraka rose an eyebrow, "Well may I know YOUR name sir?" She asked with curiousity. He pointed to himself with his thumb, "Inuzuka Kiba, and this is Akamaru." Akamaru growled at her, she looked down to the dog. "Nice mutt..." She said with rather heavy saracasm in her voice. Kiba growled at this too and retorted, "Like your dog is any better!"
"Much better," She scoffed and stood to her feet. "Well I must be going..."

She turned to leave but to much of her surprise ran directly into her sensei and sweatdropped. "Sorry Kakashi-Sensei..."
He smiled and looked down, "Ah, I've seen you met Kiba. You will be joining him in his clan tomorrow." He said chipperly. Her eyes studied him, rather lost until it finally registered,"What?..."

"Well the other night I had the members of ANBU check up on you. The time they came by you were gone, we cannot afford the risk of losing another Uchiha to the Village of Sound, so I assigned you to live with a host clan. The Inuzuka's leader has agreed to take you in. Besides, they all work with dogs, you can train Arashi among the best."
Kiba smiled feeling he had the upperhand sensing the Uchiha had disliked him. "Well then...see you later neighbor." He sniggered and left with Akamaru. Taraka growled at the thought and looked to Kakashi, "Sensei...I can take care of myself."
"Orders are orders" and with that, Kakashi vanished in a puff of smoke, leaving the Uchiha stand, watching the horizon.

She sighed and lay down again, "We'll pack up later...let's enjoy our time alone before living with that loser..."
