"Lightning Blade!"
Sparks flew as I struck at the glowing runes underneath my feet. Chakra faded from my fingertips and I was irritated to note that nothing had changed, the barrier surrounding us was still up. Well, it'll take much more than an attack like this to bring it down.
I look back over at the unconscious form of Genmai-san. I really hadn't been expecting to find his body in a Fuinjutsu trap. A complex one at that by the looks of it. Which begs the question of who exactly set it?
...and where were they now?
A thought struck me. My genin team consists of the Kyuubi Jinchuuriki, The Last Uchiha and a Uzumaki girl who was on the run from someone.
I need to get out of here. Now.
I walk over the center of the seal, which was situated on Genmai-san's body. I inspect the character's making up the seal closer. I wasn't a master by any means but I knew a thing or two about Funinjutsu, courtesy of Minato-sensei and Kushina-san. It was a barrier design for entrapment with a... Space-Time function.
If my guess is right, and I have a sinking feeling that it is... we were currently in a side dimension. Possibly even a pocket dimension. Great. Those are always fun.
Here, I was thankful that Minato-sensei specialized in Space-Time Funinjustu and my student has a penchant for designing Barriers that she occasionally asks for help with. I knew the theory of Funinjustu, know a couple techniques too. This particular seal for example is being powered by drawing chakra directly from Genmai-san's life-force. To break it I need to draw a seal to divert the chakra flow and then break it.
I could get out of this.
"It seems my only way out of here..." I pulled a kunai and sliced my thumb open, drawing blood. "Is to help him."
I crouched down and as I began to write the character's necessary for the seal I analyzed the events that led me here.
Team Seven hadn't been specifically requested for this mission -that I know of- yet this had obviously been premeditated. No one has shown up yet to deal with me so this is could be just to hold me up, this is a very complex trap just for a stall tactic though. There are not that many who can create a seal of this caliber. But who is capable of wielding such power? And who where they really after if not me?
Damn it. Why couldn't this just be a simple search and rescue? We are seriously getting benched when we report back to the Sandaime. Guaranteed, we'll be confined to the Village walls and slotted for nothing but D-Ranks for the next year at least.
I halted in my writing as I sensed another presence enter the trap. I readied a kunai and turned to see-Wait, is that...?
"Sora?" What the hell? She shouldn't be here, and not alone.
An imposter then.
She turned around at the sound of my voice. Her face had black scorch marks on it and she had a nasty bruise forming on her jaw. Clothes were dirty like she's been rolling around on the ground, also had scorch marks. Was she in a explosion? Hair was messy and half out of her pony-tail, her hair ribbon was tied loosely and was on the verge of falling out of her hair. In the blue light of our surroundings I could see there was dried blood staining her hair.
Her expression was distinctly lacking, I noticed. She slowly raised her eyebrows in apparent surprise at seeing me, no other emotion visible.
I raised my hands and signed. 'What are you doing here?' I asked. If it was an imposter then they wouldn't be able to respond.
Half-lidded purple eyes looked over me with disinterest before she raised her hands. 'Hostiles came after you ditched us. Got knocked out and then taken hostage. Woke up mid-getaway and used a paper bomb to escape, the proximity to the blast knocked me out again. I woke up with my face in the grass and stumbled across... this.' she waved her hand, gesturing at the trap.
I admit, that's quite the story.
'All-in-all, very exciting.' she finished. Yep, that's Sora. Only she can sound sarcastic without an actual voice. I relaxed and discreetly put away my weapon.
Next important question.
"Where is Naruto and Sasuke?" I ask. She shrugged her shoulders lethargically in response. Well that wasn't helpful. "...okay. Tell me about the hostiles. Did you recognize any identifying symbols?"
Was this the work of another village? Cloud has always had a certain greed for acquiring Kekkei Genkai. But going after the Last Uchiha seems a bit heavy-handed, even for them.
Sora shrugged again. That was quickly becoming annoying. Okay then, maybe she'll feel more inclined to be helpful with getting us out of the trap. The same one she willingly walked into. Which reminds me...
"How did you get in here?"
'There was glowing Fuinjutsu on the ground. I touched it.' She then gave me a look like it was the most logical thing in the world to do.
"You know curiosity killed the cat, right?" She quirked a eyebrow at me and I resisted the urge to roll my eye. "Mind helping with this, then?" I asked. With both of us undoing it, it'll go twice as fast.
Sora waved her hand dismissively at me. 'No thanks.' Then she smirked uncharacteristically. 'I like watching you work.'
I blinked in surprise. Did she just...?
Was this really Sora? I narrowed my eye at her and began scrutinizing her. She saw this and looked off to the side, lifting her hand and begun pulling on the ends of her hair, chewing her lip in a unusually nervous habit. I stood and turned to face her.
This may be an imposter after all. I don't know how they learned Sora's sign language, but even if they look like my student, I won't hesitate to put them down and make them tell me what's going on. If they have harmed any of my kids...
"Sora. Are you alright?" I ask, hand at my side, ready to pull a kunai at a moment's notice.
Sora's eyes landed on me again and a lopsided grin made it's way onto her face. 'Sora's not here at the moment. Can I take a message?'
"Who are you." I demanded.
I tensed, prepared to attack the imposter. She looked away and scratched the side of her face, wincing when she touched the bruise. Seemingly unconcerned with the turn of atmosphere.
Impassive purple eyes looked over me again and she snorted. 'Down boy.' I frowned. 'Sora is just taking a back seat right now. You and I have actually met once before, briefly. You might remember? We didn't exactly get off on the right foot... or hand, in this case.'
Hand? What-Oh. Right... another quirk of my red-headish student is her Dissociative identity disorder. If this wasn't an imposter then this was...
"Terra." She winked at me, waving her fingers in greeting.
I suddenly recalled the words my female student used when she described her alternate personality.
Terra is... inappropriate.
Terra was smirking again as her eyes lazily swept over me.
Yeah, we really need to get out of here. Soon as possible is preferable. I crouched down and began writing again. "So can you help with this?" I ask her again.
'Not too good with traditional Sealing, -' She did a sign I didn't recognize. '-is better at fixing things then I am.'
Well. "Then what can you do?"
Her smirk turned into grin and it was sharper than Sora's usual ones. She lifted her hands together and... gestured an explosion.
'Boom' she mouthed.
Great. Just great, she's not helpful whatsoever. Good to know. I wonder if I knock her unconscious I'd get Sora back? I glance at the blood in her hair again. That's probably not the best idea. She might already have a concussion, best not risk it.
It's another ten minutes until I finish with the seal formula and negated the trap. The glowing blue characters retracted to the center of the seal before fizzling out. Taking in our surroundings I was glad to note that we hadn't been transported somewhere and it was still around the same time when I was trapped, give or take an hour.
"Okay. First thing's first, we need to find Naruto and Sasuke."
'How do we do that? I can't sense anything like I am now. And what about him?' Terra nodded towards the unconscious form of Genmai-san.
She's right, someone needs to protect him in case the enemy comes back to tie up their loose end. I look over at my student, as she is now she won't be of much help in that department. Barrier or not, if the one responsible for that trap comes back then she'll be defenseless against them.
So that only leaves one option.
My hands flew through the seals, Boar, Dog, Bird, Monkey, Ram. I slammed my hand onto the grass, using the blood from my open thumb as an offering to create the link between Summoner and Summons. Chakra spread out from under my palm as the link established.
"Summoning Jutsu!"
The smoke cleared and Pakkun, Bull, Urushi, Shiba, Bisuke, Akino, Ūhei and Guruko were here now. I notice my student edge away from the Pack once she laid eyes on them. She said that animals have never liked her, right? Well she shouldn't worry, the Pack aren't just some animals. They're trained professionals.
"Yo, Kakashi!" Pakkun greeted.
"Guys." I nodded, then gestured towards my red-headish student. "This is... Sora. One of my students."
I decided that it's best not to get into the multiple personalities bit at their first meeting. That's seems more of a fourth time thing. Maybe even ninth.
"So you've finally gotten yourself a pup. Ey, Kakashi?" My faithful pug pointed out.
I pretended to not know what he's talking about. "I need help finding my other two students, we need to locate them as quickly as possible. We're up against three hostiles and a skilled unknown."
Pakkun hopped down from his spot on Bull's head. "What'dya have?"
"Use Sora's scent to find them... your scent is usually on Naruto." I said in way of explanation when she raised a questioning eyebrow my way.
The brown-haired pug padded over and sniffed her pant leg before jerking back and shaking his head. That was odd.
"Pakkun...?"
He shook his head, "I got the scent." he then discreetly motioned the others towards my student. Ūhei was the first to approach, he noticed her uncertainty and moved slowly. Hesitantly, she held out a hand and Ūhei lifted his head to meet it, allowing her to touch him. She relaxed instantly. As the rest of the Pack distracted my red-headish Pakkun came to stand by my side.
His voice was low as he spoke, "About the girl..." he trailed off and I frowned.
"What is it?" I asked just as quietly, troubled with his sudden change in attitude. Pakkun leveled me with a serious look that did nothing to set me at ease.
"Kakashi... she smells like a corpse."
I freeze.
Inhaling deeply, I catch the scents of ink, paper and rose wafting off her. Certainly nothing like decaying flesh, yet... Pakkun has the finest sense of smell of the whole Pack. If he says it's there, then it's there.
"...why can't I smell it?"
"Not surprised you can't." he murmured, "It's not actually on her, it's more of a... lingering stench. Of something old."
I look back over at my student. All the attention seemed to be overwhelming her, she shot a helpless look at me and I made sure to eye-smile and wave, her helplessness turned to annoyance quickly.
That's... yeah, that's disturbing news. My obviously young and alive student smells like an old corpse. I'm... I exhaled long through my nose. I have other pressing issues at the moment, I'll deal with... that, later.
"Can you track Naruto?" He nodded, Good. I raised my voice for the others hear. "Pakkun, you'll take us to find Naruto and Sasuke. The rest of you will stay and watch over Genmai-san here."
There was chorus of acknowledgment from the rest of the Pack and my female student stepped forward. Pakkun jumped into the trees, we followed right behind him.

空 (Sky)
I came back to consciousness when I felt his malignant chakra tear through the air. I recognized it in an instant.
Kurama.
Something was wrong with Naruto.
The chakra faded away just as soon as it flared up. I faltered in my jump as I took in my surroundings. I was leaping through the trees alongside Scarecrow, headed towards the direction of the flare. From the fierce expression on my teacher's face, he recognized that chakra too.
'Oh. Kakashi is alive. That's good, very good. When did we find that out, exactly?' I asked inwardly.
I'll fill you in on the details later, Sky-girl. Cliff notes version: After you tried to blow our face off with that half-baked escape attempt, I found Kakashi and now were looking for the other two chuckleheads.
'How long was I out?'
Uhh... less than a hour, I guess?
And in that time, something has happened to Naruto to cause him to release the Nine-tails chakra. Only grief and extreme anger can trigger an outburst like that. A pit formed in my stomach as I thought about the things that could've happened.
I cycled chakra through my muscles, tree bark cracked under my boot as I leaped closer to the direction of that unmistakable chakra.
Please, please be okay.
"Mmmph! Mm-mmh!"
Was that...?
I looked beside me and shared a glance with Scarecrow and... yup. He heard that too. He and-is that Pakkun!? Oh my goodness, he's so cute and small and wrinkly!
Focus! My other half snapped.
I valiantly held in the urge to coddle the pug and instead stopped in a crouch next to Kakashi-sensei. Through the branches and leaves we could see two figures hog-tied on the ground. My eyes widened in recognition at the two tied up. It was the big guy and chick that attacked us!
I signed, 'These are two of the three that attacked us.'
Kakashi-sensei's expression turned dark before he signed in Standard. 'Hold Position' then he jumped down. The two seemed to recognize him and promptly wet their trousers. Figuratively, of course. Otherwise that would just be gross.
Malevolent chakra shot through the air again. I could feel the pain that radiated off of it from this distance.
My body moved on it's own.
Oh god, please be okay.
"H-Hey! Kid, wait!" "Sora!" Voices called behind me.
Faster.
Leaves hit my face as I jumped through the trees. A branch I didn't bother to push our of my way scraped my cheek as I went by.
Faster!
The chakra was getting more intense. I was close. I was almost there! Both of you better be okay!
I broke through the trees and I was in a cove with a lake, I saw a waterfall pouring down over the entrance where-A body just came flying through the waterfall! It soared through the air until it smashed through a tree on the other side of the lake.
Naruto. Kurama's chakra was fading away now.
Ignoring the body that was just oozing dark and twisted chakra I ran towards the waterfall, jumping on the rocks jutting out of the water. Nearing the entrance I could hear Sasuke's voice! He was alive! He was also shouting. But Sasuke was alive, that means one of them are seriously hurt.
I don't hear Naruto's voice.
I land behind the waterfall and I could see both of my boys. Both standing and whole and okay! My footsteps echoed against the cave walls as I ran towards them. Their heads snapped towards my approach and their chakra shifted into a whirlwind of so many emotions I couldn't decipher them all. I was still running towards them.
They were both staring at me with wide eyes. They looked so pale. I ran right up to my best friend and grabbed his arms, lifting them and began checking him over for any kind of injury that could cause Kurama to lash out like that. Sasuke seemed fine at first glance so it's not-
-"So-hic-Sora-chan?" My eyes snapped up when Naruto's voice broke.
His baby blues were glossy and his lip was trembling. He was about to-Ooof! Naruto wrapped his arms around my torso in a vise-like grip, burying his face into my chest. On reflex, my arms came up and around him in turn.
I could feel tears on the front of my shirt. What happened?!
I looked towards Sasuke for an explanation. A dozen questions began running through my head. He was paler than usual, dark eyes wide and staring at me with turbulent chakra. He was filthy, covered in dirt and-I became even more alarmed when I noticed he was clutching his bleeding arm.
"A clone." Sasuke croaked, staring at me still. "It was a water clone... had to be."
"What happened, Sasuke?" Kakashi-sensei asked. When did he get here?
"I..." Sasuke trailed off and glanced at Naruto. I didn't need to read his chakra to see that he was as confused as-
-Wait. Sasuke was here when the Fox's chakra leaked out. He was with Naruto when it happened.
...he saw everything.
Sasuke looked away, towards the dead body. "I'm not sure... but that guy knew who I was."
Naruto squeezed tighter, making it harder to breathe. "We thought that he... that he killed you!"
That he killed...
What?
I looked down at Naruto in shock but he had his eyes screwed shut in an effort to stop the tears.
"You escaped earlier, right? Back in the forest, you used the explosion to get away." Sasuke asked, I nodded numbly. "The guy must have made a clone before we caught back up with him. We thought we were still chasing after you... he... surrounded the clone with explosives as a trap."
Oh.
Oh my god! I placed my hand on the back of Naruto's head and pressed him closer, laying my cheek on top. His shoulders were trembling but he wasn't making a sound. That's why the seal weakened. Naruto had thought he'd seen me die. If this hadn't the first time the seal weakened then it could have been so much worse.
Oh, Naruto...
I began to rub small circles on his back and eventually, his breathing evened out. Kakashi-sensei left us and checked over what was left of what had to be Fish-hood's corpse. I noticed out of the corner of my eye that Sasuke was standing awkwardly to the side with his arms crossed, watching Naruto and I.
I lifted one of my arms in invitation.
Onyx eyes widened before he scoffed and turned away. His chakra betrayed the reluctant warmth that stirred within him at the gesture. I smiled in great amusement.
Sasuke's such a Tsundere.
Kakashi-sensei didn't take long before he came back. As the ex-ANBU walked towards us, he was stowing a scroll into his tools bag. Unconsciously, my eyes drifted back to crater fish-hood's body was to find that it was missing now.
"Alright guys, let's head back to Genmai-san. He'll be waking up soon... oh, yeah. We found him." he added belatedly when Sasuke looked at him questioningly, causing Duckie to roll his eyes.
Naruto pulled back from our embrace a bit and looked up at me, puffy eyes and all. I put on a reassuring smile for him. With reluctance he let go of my torso but was quick to snatch my hand in a firm grip, lacing our fingers together.
We started to head back.

"Leave me alone! I'm capable of bandaging my own damn arm!" The Bastard hissed at Sora-chan.
Sora-chan had already cleaned Sasuke's arm but he was being stubborn and wouldn't stay still so could she wrap the bandages around his wound. She frowned and smacked his good hand away when he tried to grab the bandages. He started scowling at her and she glared right back.
"Uhm..." Both of them stopped and looked towards me and I stepped forward. "I can do it instead. You hurt your head too Sora-chan, so you shouldn't be doin' stuff."
The Bastard said something about not needing any help but Sora-chan just ignored him and stared at me. It was the kind of stare that makes me want to fidget 'cause it's like she's trying to read my mind or somethin' but then she nodded and handed me the bandages.
She got up and headed towards the guy we came looking for -we were waiting for him to wake up- and started to play with Kakashi-sensei's dogs. I sat down and waited until I was sure she couldn't hear me before I turned to Sasuke.
"...Sasuke." I whispered. He didn't stop scowling at the tree, he must not have heard me. I raised my voice a little and tried again. "Sasuke...! Sasuke!"
His head snapped around and he growled, "What do you-"
"SHHH!" I raised my finger over my mouth. He gave me a dirty look and I scowled at him right back. I jumped to my feet and grabbed his arm before I started pulling him away, farther from the others so they couldn't hear.
"Agh! Let go of my arm you idiot!" Sasuke started cussing and was glaring at me when we stopped, he snatched his arm back and held it to his chest. Oh, that was his bad arm. Whoops. "What do you want, loser!?"
"I..." I looked off to the side, I can't look him in the eye. I didn't really think about this too much before I grabbed him, did I? But... I wanted to talk to him about what happened earlier with that fish-bastard. Sasuke saw what I did to him.
When I look back, Sasuke is frowning and looking at me like he's trying to read my mind now. That's really weird.
"This... is about what happened in the cave." Wow, he can read minds!?
"...yeah. I wanted to talk to you about it, 'ttebayo." I mumbled.
He shrugged and turned away again, headed back towards the others. "I can't help you, I don't know what you did. Just ask Sora, she seems to know a lot of weird things."
"NO!" I slapped my hands over my mouth and looked around quickly. I relax when no one came. I looked back at the Bastard and he was staring at me like I was nuts. "No, we can't tell anyone about it! It's a secret!"
He frowned. "Secret from who?"
"Everyone! Everyone in the village, dattebayo!" He didn't look like he believed me, I need him to believe me. I stepped forward and grabbed him by the front of his shirt and spoke deadly seriously. "And you can't tell Sora-chan. No matter what."
Sora-chan can't find out about the stupid fox! She wouldn't hate me and ignore me like everyone else does but... but it just wouldn't be the same anymore! She would know and things would be different! I just know it!
"Hands off!" He pushed me away and I stumbled backwards. "Why the hell not? Doesn't she already know?"
"No and you can't tell her! Okay?! Say it! Say you won't tell anyone!" Please, please, please!
Sasuke stared at me long and hard. I could've sworn he was going to go back and tell everyone what I did, but he just turned around and shoved his hands into his pants.
"Whatever... just stop bothering me." Then he started to walk back and I let out a breath.
"Whew!" That was close!
As long as Sasuke doesn't say anything then nothing'll change and everything will stay normal.
When I made it back to the others, Sasuke was trying to bandage his arm one-handed and Kakashi-sensei had his arms crossed over his chest and Sora-chan was surrounded by dogs. I smiled. She looked really happy right now.
"Sora... Pakkun is not a stuffed doll." Kakashi-sensei sighed.
Sora-chan just stuck her tongue out and held the little dog closer to her chest.
This is nice. I want everything will stay just the same... just like this.

"Where were you, Tou-chan!?" A child cried. We'd escorted the client back to Konoha without any more interference and he was reunited with his son.
'A happy ending.' Sora signed with a smile as she watched them.
Naruto grinned as he raised his arms behind his head. "Yeah! We completed our mission, kicked some bad guy ass and everyone is back safe!"
I frowned at the mention of our enemy. I thought back to that guy that attacked us, and what he said before Naruto had... beaten him into the ground.
Naruto was lying on the ground, panting for breath. He had spent the last of his energy repeatedly driving his fists into the guy's face. The red, burning chakra that surrounded him was going away now.
...where did that monstrous strength come from?
The hood-guy's hand twitched and his eyes opened, he looked over at me. He was still alive after all that?
"Are you... content with this? Relying on others for-" He stopped to choke on his own blood, coughing it up. When he finished, he looked at me with a bloody smile. "For power, Sasuke-kun? You will... never defeat Itachi like this."
My blood had run cold.
He knew Itachi.
"Who the hell are you? What do you know about Itachi?" I demanded. He started laughing, his voice sounded like sandpaper.
"We... will meet again soon... Sasuke-kun."
He had died after that and Naruto had thrown the body out of spite.
I didn't get any answers from him before he died. Not about how he knew who I was. What he knew about Itachi. All I learned is that my powers were insufficient. I wasn't strong enough to defeat that guy on my own but somehow Naruto was.
Naruto, the grinning, cheerful idiot had beaten that guy to death when all I could do was stand there holding my useless arm.
I was useless as I watched the explosion go off.
I was helpless to do anything to stop it.
-TooLate-IWasTooLATE-
I took a deep breath and cleared my mind. Those kind of thoughts were pointless. I locked away those feelings where they couldn't effect me.
"Oi, Sasuke!" My eyes snapped up at Naruto's voice. The others were waiting on me. "You comin' or what?"
I moved forward.
I didn't get any answers but there's one thing I know for certain.
I need to get stronger.
Perspective:
空 (Sky)
I was almost asleep when I sensed someone enter my apartment. I didn't bother to move as the glowing chakra signature slowly crept it's way through the front room, stopping in front of my bedroom door. I heard the handle turn and a pair of feet softly pad towards my bedside.
I cracked open an eye to see Naruto standing there in his blue pajamas. "Can I sleep here tonight...?" he whispered.
I tiredly lifted a corner of my blanket, granting my permission. He grinned before hopping into the bed next to me. As he made himself comfortable I rolled onto my back and pulled the blanket up to my chin, closing my eyes.
There was a whole five minutes of silence.
"...you still awake 'ttebayo?"
I turn back over on my side to face my friend and opened my eyes a bit. He was staring up at the ceiling, a thoughtful look on his face. I almost fell asleep waiting for him to continue speaking.
He turned over and faced me, "Hey, can you... promise you'll never leave?"
I frowned slightly as my heart warmed immeasurably. As much as I'd like to make a promise like that, it just isn't possible. Not in the way he wants. We're going to grow up and we can't always be like we are right now. We're going to have our own lives and our own things to deal with. He's going to be Hokage one day and I'll be...
My thoughts must've read clear on my face because Naruto spoke up again.
"No, not like..." he frowned as he looked for the words. "Well, you know what I mean... you can still go out on missions and stuff and I remember that Terra wants to go and explore the world but... can you just... promise not leave me."
Okay, I'm confused now. If distance isn't what he's worried about then what is it? His chakra was sad and he was almost pleading with those baby blues now.
"Please?"
Sighing, I shook my head with a smile. Sometimes I just don't understand what goes on in that silly blonde head of his. I lifted my left hand and extended my pinkie.
A promise.
He wrapped his pinkie around mine and grinned so wide his eyes squeezed shut. I huffed a laugh as he started giggling. He can be so strange some days. I release his pinkie and signed, he was still a bit sad and it's my job to cheer him up.
'So I won't leave you and you won't leave me. What if I...' I gave it a moment of thought with my sleep-addled mind. '...get taken by giant pandas or kidnapped by religious fanatics?'
He scrunched up his nose with a lopsided smile. "What kinda questions are those, 'ttebayo?"
'Answer the questions already, what would you do?'
"Okay, I'd... kick the kidnappers asses and... can I make friends with giant pandas and ask them to give you back?"
I nodded, those are good answers. 'But what if... I get lost on the road of life?' I teased with a half smile.
He snorted a laugh, "Then I'll come find you, duh."
I full-on smiled and wiggled my pinkie at him. 'Promise?'
He gave me that thousand-watt smile of his. "Yeah! It's a promise of a lifetime!"
...oh.
My heart stuttered and my eyes began to water suddenly and without my consent. He can be silly and loud and kinda thick sometimes but I'll be darned if he doesn't know just what to say at times.
"Sora-chan, what's wrong!? Why're you crying!?"
...my Hero.
