Thoughts
Demons
A review I got earlier brought it to my attention that I didnt really explain everything about how the people look.Not that I dont like being corrected or anything, but I dont want to do it if I dont have to.If anyone else really cares, say so and I'll include a more thourough description of each character that matters up to this point.
Spar, Leaf VS Sand, Lion Combo!
In the morning, the genin woke up with the sand genin. Rin and Len still remembered their rivalry from the previous night and were ready to spar. Raj and Lao heard of this from Kitou who heard it from Len and were ready to watch. Lao, Raj, and Kitou were to watch it, not to judge who won or for enjoyment, but to make sure they didnt kill each other. Raj and Lao, of course wanted to actually see their team mate at full power. All they really saw so far was the Fireball Jutsu and the Fire Element, Pheonix Flame Jutsu. They walked out past a training area into some woods that were near the village and came to a clearing.
"Okay, now remember", Kitou began,"This is a friendly match. No killing. If you are about to, Raj, Lao, and I will intervene. Now...Start!" Len quickly drew a senbon needle and threw it at Rin, but she blocked it with a kunai. Rin did some hand seals and grinned as Len did the same. They both got ready.
"Fireball no Jutsu!", Rin yelled.
"Cannonball no Jutsu!", Len yelled. Rin shout a fireball out of her mouth, but Len shot a ball of sand at her from the ground. It met inbetween them and made a small explosion. Len did more seals. "Cannonball no Jutsu!", she shouted again, shooting another. Rin began some seals and turned into a log upon contact. "Substitution?", Len asked,"Thats all you've got? I thought Leaf-nin were suppose to at least be decently strong." Rin jumped out of a tree with a kunai ready, but Len spun around and blocked it with her own kunai. They both let go of the kunai at the same time and jumped away. Rin did quick seals.
"Fireball no Jutsu!", Rin shouted again as the fireball shout out of her mouth. Len jumped into the air and did more seals as well, but Rin was already ahead with another set of seals done.
"Flamethrower no Jutsu!", she shouted.
"Sand Spike!", Len shouted as she shot a big spike of sand at Rin. She made more seals as her flamethrower went and stopped the sand spike. As soon as the flamethrower ended, Rin grinned.
"Fireball no Jutsu!", she shouted for the third time now. Len jumped into the air and dodged it with a grin on her face.
"Out of chakra?", she asked, noticing that Rin was panting heavily.
"Not...done...yet", Rin grinned. She weakly made more hand seals, but before she finished, Len threw a kunai at her again. This time it hit dead on, but instead of Rin screaming in pain, she poofed away.
"What?", Len shouted, surprised.
"Ah...A Kage Bunshin", Kitou whispered.
"Yeah", Raj replied,"Rin is pretty strong." Len looked around for her now, but all that she saw were Raj, Kitou, and Lao, still watching. Rin jumped out from the trees again and punched Len hard in the face. Len made some seals as she flew back and grinned. She landed on her feet after doing a back flip in mid air.
"Sand Prison!", Len shouted as she trapped Rin inside a ball of sand. She began closing her fist which shrunk the ball of sand.
"Len!", Kitou yelled,"Dont kill her!"
"Dont worry!", Len yelled back,"I am just making her uncomfertable!" She continued closing her hand, but stopped when it was just big enough to stay in. "Giving up yet?", Len asked, mockingly.
"Flame Burst no Jutsu!", Rin shouted. All the others saw was the sand grow red and then turn to glass. They didnt see what the attack did. All they knew was that it produced great heat. Rin punched the glass, breaking it.
"Hmmm...Pretty good", Len said with a slight grin. She pulled out a kunai and threw it. Rin ducked to dodge, but was hit in her right shoulder. "Shadow Shurikan", Len said.
"Clone", Rin said with a grin as she poofed away.
"Damn...Must've been when she was in the Sand Prison", Len whispered. Rin jumped from a tree with a kunai ready and threw it at Len. Len tried jumping away, but couldnt move and upon looking down, she saw two hands holding her from the ground. She got struck in the right shoulder with not enough time to use Substitution and then was pulled into the ground. Rin came out of the ground as Len went in.
"Inner Decapitation", Rin said as she began walking away.
"Not over!", Len yelled. Rin turned and saw Len was turning to sand. "Sand Clone!", Len yelled. Len and Rin now faced each other with too little chakra to go jutsu against jutsu anymore. They both pulled out kunai.
"Cant use jutsus anymore either?", Rin asked.
"Neither can you", Len replied. They both got ready for the last attack. Raj activated the Byakugan from where he watched. What he saw surprised him and he leaned closer to Lao and Kitou.
"They both still have enough chakra to continue", he whispered.
"How do you-Oh, the Byakugan", Kitou said.
"Yeah, but why are they going hand to hand if they could still go jutsu to jutsu?", Lao asked.
"I know why", Kitou said, looking at his sister,"She cant go on with out killing Rin. Her jutsus are very powerful. Those were the weaker ones. Seeing as you are friends, she probally doesnt want to seriously injure her or, worse, kill her." Raj and Lao nodded.
"We havent seen much of Rin's power, but she is probally the same in that", Raj said.
"No", Lao replied,"She could easily use genjutsu to end this, but she is probally trying to be honorable and finish this fairly. She sees that Len could go on, but is holding back so she doesnt get injured." They all were silent after that since the two seem to have finished getting ready.
"Now to end this!", Rin yelled. She pulled out a second kunai and got ready. Rin and Len both charged. They clashed in the middle and they each went into a roundhouse kick. Their legs met each other and then they both jumped up and went for a kick with the other leg. They both met again and then went into a back flip. They landed and went foward again, clashing kunai. This time, however, Rin bent down, surprising Len as her kick went over head, and kicked Len up. She jumped up and ended up behind her.
"Time to end this", Rin said, putting her right index and middle finger pointed onto Len's back,"This is a technique my father's student made." Rin went for a kick for the left side, but was blocked. She went for another kick and got the right side in the stomach. Len began falling back down and Rin just kicked Len in the chin, causing her to fall faster. Then, as Len was about to hit the ground, Rin did a drop kick to Len's stomach and smashed her into the ground. "Lion Combo!", Rin yelled. Raj went foward in surprised.
"How do you know that technique?", Raj yelled,"Thats Sasuke-san's attack!"
"Sasuke was Kakashi-sensei's student with your father", she said,"I saw him spar with Naruto...and memorized the attack. Never tried it out till now."
"When did you see it?", he asked.
"Right before we set off", Rin replied,"The night before. You saw it too." Raj nodded.
"Well, lets make our way back to the Kazekage's tower", Kitou said. Len was unconcience after the powerful attack so Rin helped her up and carried her back.
"You two are genin?", Raj asked.
"Yes", Kitou replied.
"Who is your sensei?", Lao asked.
"Well, our father teaches us, but that is only because our sensei died on a mission", Kitou said,"Since father is so busy, our uncle, Kankorou, is kind of our sensei. It isnt official though. We learn what we can and Kankorou goes on C-ranked missions in case they turn out like your's. With someone powerful enough to take out a jounin chasing you." Raj and Lao nodded as they reached the Kazekage Tower. Kitou led them in as Baki and Kankorou let them in again. They went up the stairs to the Kazekage's office and entered there.
"What happened?", Gaara asked, immediatly looking at Len.
"Well, Len wanted to spar with Rin", Kitou explained,"Rin won. And dont worry. Me, Raj, and Lao made sure they didnt go overboard.
"She isnt severely injured, sir", Rin said,"I just knocked her out." Gaara nodded.
"Well, I am glad you are here", Gaara said,"Kankorou and I went to visit Kakashi in the hospital today. He is fine, but from now until you get back to Konoha, Kankorou and I have agreed to train you. Tazna is waiting in the hall. Starting tomorrow, Kankorou will take you and train you while Tazna helps rebuild."
"Really?", Raj yelled out,"Could you teach us any of those sand attacks?"
"Well, not in the time you are here", Gaara replied,"I could, but it takes a long time. It came naturally to me and my children because we are connected to...well it isnt important right now. Just go get some rest." They all nodded and walked off to the rooms except for Raj. Raj stood there alone with Gaara staring at him.
"You and your children can use the sand because you are connect to Sabaku", Raj said, seriously. Gaara's eyes widened.
"How do you know?", he asked.
"Well, my father is like you", Raj said,"He holds Kyuubi, you hold Sabaku. He told me of the fight you two had during his chuunin exams. And of the raccoon demon inside you." Raj walked towards Gaara.
"Then I guess you hate me", Gaara sighed.
"No", Raj said, to Gaara's surprise,"My father is like you. Except his is stronger at full blast. You are no different to me in my perspective. I hold potential to great fire abilities as a connection to Kyuubi. People have hated me. Just as they hated my father." Raj walked towards the door.
"To me, it is an honor to be trained by you", Raj said as he put his hand on the nob,"But to the Kyuubi side, it is an opportunity for power."
"Tell me one thing", Gaara said,"How do you have Kyuubi if your father held him?"
"Kyuubi went into me as I was born", Raj replied, turning the nob,"And put the seal on me." Raj lifted his shirt up and turned around to reveal the seal on his stomach. Raj left through the door and head to the room, leaving Gaara alone.
"Naruto...", he whispered,"Your burden is gone, but...your son's has just began." Gaara looked down at where his seal had been. "As has my daughter's", Gaara sighed.

Hope you enjoyed this chapter.I have also realized that I have not described the sand siblings.So I will now:
Len-She has long black hair.She wears clothing similar to Temari.The chain thing under the purple sweatshirt type thing.She also has black pants.She doesnt have any weapons except the shurikan, kunai, and senbon.She kinda takes after Temari in clothing and looks except for the hair.
Kitou-He has red hair, like his father.He wears cloths similar to Gaara's as a genin, but he wears a black hoody like Kankorou.Then he normally has the furry thing wrapped in bandages like Kankorou, but didnt have it this time because he didnt fight.He also has a kodochi hidden inside his puppet and a second one in a sheathe by his side.Besides that, he doesnt have much else to talk about.
Anyway, there are the sand siblings.Be sure to read the next chapter, Sound's Threat!Attack on Tazna!And remember to review.
