Celestial Beings:

Leiko sat at a desk in a private room in the academy. She had taken various paper tests all morning and afternoon. Now they were being graded.

"Well, how did she do?" asked Neji.

Kiba and Naruto nodded behind him. Sakura was also there. "Hey, Naruto," she whispered, pulling him aside.

"Yeah, what do you want, Sakura-chan?"

"That girl, Leiko, do you know who's sister she is?"

"No, I only just met her last night. And suddenly I'm over Iruka-sensei's tragic death!"

"She's Haku's sister."

"…"

"You know that boy we fought with?"

"Yeah, yeah, I know who you're talking about."

Someone interrupted them. "Yes, yes, Haku's dead. He was killed by Kakashi-sensei while protecting his precious person," Leiko informed them. She was smiling. Again.

"You already knew!" exclaimed Sakura.

"Of course I did. I also know the Temari loves Shikamaru, but she left with Gaara-chan and Kankuro-kun because Shikamaru said 'who could ever love a woman like you' and she cried and cried and cried. He heart is broken."

"Huh?" Naruto looked at her. "Shikamaru wouldn't say something like that."

"Yes, he would," Sakura told him. "It's all true. I didn't know that she cried, but she went and got drunk after Shikamaru…"

"Don't worry, everything will work out. Everyone will find someone they love," Leiko comforted, although lowering her head. "Everyone will…almost…" she muttered, walking away.

"Wow. She's weird."

"But she's cute," Naruto insisted.

"WHAT!" Kiba yelled.

"Yes, her grades are just barely higher than Naruto and Shikamaru's…" Tsunade muttered, obviously confuse. Leiko just stood there smiling.

"You didn't even try," Neji claimed.

"Yes I did. I'm just horrible at these types of things."

"Well, now for her physical test…"

"I can't do that, sorry."

"What do you mean?" asked Tsunade, looking up from her papers.

"Do the health examination first."

"Okay, then."

Everyone waited once again while Tsunade examined Leiko, waiting impatiently for the results.

Finally, Tsunade and Leiko came out, Leiko still smiling brightly.

"Well, I can see why she couldn't do the physical tests, now. Leiko-hime has amazingly weak lungs."

Leiko explained, "If I work too hard, I can't breathe properly. If I don't calm down, my lungs begin to fill up with liquid and I will eventually pass out and die only minutes afterwards."

No one said anything.

Tsunade looked around. "Well then, for the next examination…"

"Hey, Tsunade, I thought you and Leiko had met before, and you knew her abilities, right? So why does she have to do all this stuff?" asked Naruto

Tsunade sighed. "I just borrowed some money from her, is all. We hardly talked."

Naruto crossed his arms and glared at Tsunade. She sighed once again and walked out of the room holding Leiko's hand (who was skipping along beside her) and everyone followed. This next exam was going to be interesting.

"Okay, we're sending some ninjas after you. Don't be afraid to kill them, because they're from the Sound," Tsunade told Leiko.

"How did we get ninjas from the Sound?" asked Naruto suspiciously.

"Don't ask me," Tsunade answered. "Okay, begin!"

Six Sound ninjas quickly attacked Leiko, with everything they had. All she did was defend herself with a shield of red chakra.

"Hey, why isn't she attacking them?" asked Naruto.

"No provocation," explained Neji.

"But they're attacking her!"

"She doesn't care."

"What does she care about? We'll send that out there and make it look like the Sound captured it," suggested Tsunade.

Neji turned towards Kiba.

"Kiba?" asked Tsunade.

"Yes. She practically honors him in idolatry," explained Neji.

"Okay, then…"

(&)

Leiko continued to defend their attacks, staying in the same place as always. Suddenly, Kiba was pushed out into the clearing, all tied up. He was bleeding and hurt. By Tsunade.

Leiko looked at Kiba. The Sound were now going for him. Leiko's pupils shrunk into nothing and she burst into flames and lunged at the Sound. Two whip-like crimson chakra strands came out of each pointer and middle finger when put together (one for each hand). She controlled them so that one by one the Sound ninjas were cut by the chakra strands, never to breathe again. Blood spattered the ground, and not one ninja touched either Leiko or Kiba.

When all the ninjas were dead, Leiko landed neatly on her feet, and the flames dissipated as she walked over to Kiba. She carefully tore the piece of duck tape off his mouth and untied his hands and feet.

"Are you okay?" she asked, staring at him with big eyes.

Still shocked, Kiba nodded nervously. Before they could walk back to Tsunade and the others, Leiko's eyes again went blank, and she kneeled there completely still, making no sound. When Leiko's eyes became normal again, she stood up and helped up Kiba. They walked back to the group.

Everyone's eyes were wide with horror and amazement. Leiko walked up to Tsunade and said, "The third has been awakened."

"No…" whispered Tsunade. "Those stories aren't true. They can't be…"

"Your grandmother was a very wise person. You have done good to listen to her."

"H-Hey, Leiko, what are you talking about?" questioned Naruto.

Suddenly a smile light up Leiko's face. "Naruto-chan, can we go to the park and swing!" she asked gleefully.

"Yes, Naruto, take her to the park," Tsunade ordered.

"But…I want to hear, also!" Naruto complained.

"I'll explain to you later. I just can't believe this is actually happening."

When Naruto left, everyone looked at Tsunade, wanting answers.

"My grandmother used to tell me strange fairy tales when I was little. My favorite of these was of three Celestial beings, one to rule Heaven, one to rule Earth, and one to rule Both and the Universe.

"These three sisters protect the balance of life and death with their own lives, and their tale has no end.

"I'm afraid that Leiko-hime is the First. And if the Third has awakened, then the Second has already…and the First and the Second have met."

"I don't get it," complained Kiba.

"Mainly, there are three Celestial Beings that control Heaven, Earth, and the Universe. So they were born, or awakened, into this world to save us from no doubt Orochimaru," explained Sakura.

"It was also said that these Celestial Beings cannot cry, because they are made only to kill and to protect. But if they are able to cry for another, their tears can bring life to that person.

"Long ago, when the earth was torn with wars, everything was destroyed. These three Celestial Beings were awakened, and their tears rained down upon the earth. Life was restored, and the tales of the Celestial Beings were told from then on, but became sparse. I was told by my grandmother," explained Tsunade.

"But I've seen her brother!" exclaimed Sakura.

"Leiko was born into this world. The First is always born, and the Second and Third are usually awakened. TheSecond controls Heaven, and the Third controls Earth. Therefore, if Leiko is the First, she controls both."

"So…when will this happen?" spoke up Shino.

"Well, I suppose when Leiko-hime calls the Second and Third," said Tsunade.

"When will that happen?" asked Shino.

"As soon as she calls them. They seem to have some type of ESP, also called the Flash, in which they can travel to any time and any space. They can also communicate.

"Cool," said Kiba. Everyone looked at him. "What?"

"We'd better go to the park then, and keep an eye on Leiko so we know when the Second and Third are called," Sakura suggested.

A low rumbling filled the area.

"Too late…" Tsunade whispered.

(&)

At the Park

"Hey, Leiko, would you care to explain to me?" Naruto asked impatiently.

"I do not have to explain, because soon you will see," Leiko answered.

Naruto and Leiko continued to swing until a low rumbling filled the area, and stopped after about five seconds. Suddenly, a large white dove appeared overhead and landed neatly in front of them. A giant worm (a sandy color) popped out of the ground.
