Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, don't sue me…

By the by, bakemono also means stupid person.

I stopped writing where I did because it was so much more dramatic when I did ;-) I might just stop writing at the end altogether. I'm not going to this chapter, either.

This is another chapter where Kitara herself is speaking. BTW, every time she does this, it gives more information that I might use in the future, so pay attention.

Also, as of May 17th, 2006, I have updated chapter one. You might want to read that, first.

One more thing. I'm contradicting myself from chapter four in this, but Les Miserable has been replaced as the best musical ever by Newsies. Sorry, Les Mis lovers.

And now, the long awaited (or at least a few day's awaited) Chapter 6:

More On Suchi

Suchi, being a genin of Kagegakure, was mainly the one who was teaching me, instead of the other way around. She even taught me the language of the wolves, the language you needed to learn to control them. I listened to her, never realizing that we were being watched.

"No, Kitara, like this," Suchi said more often then not.

The only thing that I was able to teach her was an immensely complicated Spirit jutsu that allowed the user to separate themselves from their body to either attack or defend. When done right, the user became a semi-solid shadow. However, to seal the jutsu the user would have to stab their self in the stomach with a kunai that was striped on either side with the user's blood. Meaning that if done wrong, the user had a seventy percent chance of dying on the spot, and even if they survived they had an eighty percent chance of dying before they could get to the hospital.

Unfortunately, the knife in the stomach was necessary. The only way that the shadow could return to its body is for the knife to be removed. The downsides of that jutsu, besides the high mortality rate, were two important things.

One: even with the fact that when the user returns to its body the body is healed, the user will be stuck as a shadow forever if the body is mutilated before they got back.

Two: A shadow can't pull a knife out of its own body.

That was where the Yeina clan's techniques came in. They were called the Urufu Keishu for a reason. Their special skill: summoning. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what they summoned.

Suchi, unbeknown to her family, had let me sign my name in blood on the Scroll of Wolves. I can now only summon my friend and companion Jitache, who ages at the same rate I do, even though once I could summon any wolf I wanted to, pup or grandpa, aged or young. Jitache had used to be Suchi's wolf and presumed dead by the Yeinas today. She's been a great companion to me, even through losing her blood companion.

Back to being watched. Shana, Suchi's devilish little cousin who loathes being called little, was spying on us as we trained. She was two years younger then the two of us, and was third in line for the Kage throne.

The Kage was the highest power in Kagegakure like the Hokage is the highest power in Konohagakure, only the Kage title is inherited through bloodline, rather then skill. Suchi's father, or Daifu as we called him, was the Kage seven years ago who gave the order to banish his own daughter. Yuri, being the oldest, was first in line for the title when Daifu either retired or died. Suchi, being the only other child of Daifu, was second, followed by Shana.

You see how ratting us out helped Shana. With Suchi out of the way, she was second in line. Stupid little redheaded brat.

You can also see now why I was very annoyed to see her show up again after only a month of my being a shinobi…
