Hey, to thus enjoying this story, here is the update as promised; would've tried to update last weekend, but something unexpected came, so I hope this would make up for it. Enjoy!
ju-hkjv; Well, we both know how Naruto can be, and the trouble he gets into.
Amynila; I'm glad you like my story, even though it's old and all. Will update more in the future.
Things have gotten a lot stranger as Sasuke discover something about Kyro he never knew until a friend of Sin's grandmother informed him. Not to mentioned that Naruto decided to follow Akarla, even after the Sensors warned him to stay away from her, and yet he wants to know what is it about her that's…
Library…
"How could he be missing for 5 years? I just- my squad members and I met someone who goes by the name Kyro Mushori few days ago," Sasuke asked after Frea told him about some missing people, and Kyro is one of them,
"That can't be right, he is still placed in our records along with the other missing children from other villages," Frea stated before he led him down the aisle and located the scroll. He unrolled it and showed to Sasuke, Sasuke looked through the list of names, and was able to spot 'Kyro's' name on the Missing Section, showing the status indicates 'Still Missing.'
"I've been hearing that he either died when he fell over the cliff through some forbidden mountains, or he survived because nobody could find one trace of his body," Frea said, now thanks to him, Sasuke now learns that his prime suspect could be either one of the missing children or some imposter impersonating him.
"…Could I borrow this?" he asked Frea,
"Yeah sure, but if you're thinking of finding those missing people, good luck, because like I said, many of them are impossible to find," Frea said before Sasuke finally left the library.
Village…
Naruto hid himself behind a building to avoid being seen by the pale-skinned red-haired girl, even though Sin's grandmother warned him and Sasuke to stay away from her, and yet, he wants to know what makes her so dangerous. He watches her walking near a store that sells perfume samples, then saw the sales lady approach her with a perfume,
"Excuse me Miss, may I have a moment of your time to present you one of our finest perfumes you can hardly find in any village. It will not only be suitable to you but bring much attraction to suitors," the sales lady said,
Akalra stopped and turned to her with her emotionless expression,
"In what purpose should I spare a moment of my time for chemical mixtures that rarely attract any of your species?" she said to her, which made her confused,
"I'm sorry?" the lady replied.
"And also, why would you waste much of your energy in task that rarely supports your needs to help your poorly sick mother?" she asked, the lady became stunned after what she just said,
"H-how did you-?!" the lady said until the red-haired girl's eyes turned paler while gazing at the woman's eyes, making her's paled, under her control,
"Instead, why don't you place your loyalty to my kind, that way you will be promised all the support you need to fulfill your purpose. Do we have an understanding?" Akalra asked her,
"I place my servitude onto you my lady," the sales lady said,
"Consider it done," Akalra said, before she left the stand.
Naruto watched as he saw the sales lady went back to her store to and placed the 'Closed' sign on the door,
"What was that about?" he thought as he doesn't know what is going on, but then he saw the red-haired girl leaving the area, he continues following her.
Uchiha resident…
After he brought the supplies to Sin's grandmother, Sasuke returned home to looked through the scroll of the Missing people, some writing in articles and facts,
"Evidently, Kyro isn't the only missing person, as many of the other children were impossible to find," he thought as he looks through the scroll, and found some reports that capture is attention.
Onginji Joubarru, from the Howling Wolf Village- identify as a young man, who appear as an adult but has a distinct height for his age, reported being attacked by a wild animal, but his whereabouts appear unknown of whether being dead or alive. (Missing for 4 years)
Maraku Polamaka, from the Hidden Moon Village- a blind musician who disappeared during a music festival, reported missing for weeks but her whereabouts appeared unknown. (Missing for 3 years)
Khin and Khan Rimui, from the Forest Village- identical twin brothers reported missing during a travel with their father after they got separated through the cave, a search and rescue was made but both whereabout appear unknown. (Missing for 2 years)
Chikuma Anikon, from the River Village- a 7-year-old girl who was thought perished from the fire at a toy store when she went back to retrieve her toy doll, but her whereabouts appear unknown when her body was never found through the ashes. (Missing for 1 year)
"Some of these children are still missing," he said, and then he pondered his thoughts through all that information and putting the pieces together; wild animal… a blind… twin brothers… toy doll, they all relate to the thugs he and his comrades encountered, then thought about what Sin's grandmother said.
Flashback…
"…those thugs you all encountered, I have you know that there is a history behind each of them you might never expect…"
Flashback over…
"But then what leaves Kyro? He was never involved in any of this before-" he said and then a thought occurred to him, what about the thug's leader, the Deceiver.
The time he fought against the him, he claims Sakura to be his mate, then by the time he defeated him and went to rescue Sakura, it was a mere coincident Kyro appeared to complete the mission. Then another mere coincident when Kyro appeared and saved Sakura from a fallen tank but somehow it was cut off on purpose, afterwards he noticed the way Kyro looks at Sakura and wanted to be close to her; which is rather odd that a new guy appear out of blue and took a sudden interest in his comrade, almost like the Deceiver. Then another thought occurred to him, when Sin mentioned the Deceiver is known to trick his opponents, and that a demon and demon-child are capable to disguise their physical appearance. With possible conclusion, the missing children must be the thugs they encountered, the Deceiver disguised himself as Kyro Mushori, and he snuck his way back to the village in order to get close to Sakura,
"That demonic son of a bitch!" Sasuke said as he is beyond pissed that he was fooled by the Deceiver's tricks, he quickly and immediately left his home to find him, or rather, find Kyro.
Village…
Naruto hid himself around the corner, as he followed the red-haired girl, as she is holding a decorative dish plate near a stand, assuming she's shopping for some home supplies.
"Such peculiar object that rarely show much purpose but rather display structure and craftsmanship," Akalra said as she observes the plate up close, the elderly salesmen didn't even bother to look at her as he focus his attention to the news article,
"Well it is a plate… it can be used however you want it," he said without making eye-contact,
"Does that include eradicating certain species the time my kind dominate your home dimension and you will have to choose whether to serve us or perish?" she asked him,
"Mm-hm, yea, sure... something like that," he replied but didn't even paying attention to what she just said, Akalra noticed how he express no interest nor care about anything, let alone anyone,
"Such a unique human you are," she said. Then a younger but older man approached her, given her a seductive look on his pretty face,
"Hello there beautiful," Akalra turned to him, as she can tell he's trying to make a pass on her,
"I don't believe I seen you here before, how would you feel if I escort you around and maybe buy you s drink?" he asked her out,
"I distribute no human emotion, for I congregate my purpose to obtain full control of this body," Akalra said to him, even though he has no idea what she means by that, but he got close to her,
"Okay then… why don't you and I get out of here and I'll show you around... then after that, we can stop at my place where I'll entertain you with my mo-" he said, until Akalra's eye's turned paler again and the man's eyes turned paled, now under her control.
"Why don't you entertain yourself by using your face to bash each plate until you bleed and lose consciousness," she ordered her as she handed him the plate,
"Anything for you, my lady," he said, as he took the plate from her and…
Bash! Break!
He purposely bashing his face with it, then turned to the stand to pick up more plates to continue bashing face while breaking each plate, as scratches and blood started to appear on his not-so-pretty face, Akalra stood there and watch him,
"It would appear the 'plates' does show their purpose after all," Akalra said before she started leaving the stand,
"I'm gonna have to charge you for every plate you break," the salesmen said to the man but kept his full attention on the news article.
Naruto saw everything and is beyond confused what just happened, did she performed some sort of jutsu on that guy to make him bash his face with the plates, and why is the salesmen just sitting there doing nothing while the guy it breaking his decorative plates? He is more curious than ever, as he continues following the red-haired girl.
…
A couple are at home as the husband is reading a scroll while the wife is making tea,
Knock-knock-knock!
A knock from the door was made, and the wife went to answer it, she opened it but saw no one there except a small flower pot with two single blue flowers,
"Honey, somebody left these at the door," she presented it to her husband,
"That's odd, usually we receive free coupons, but never a plant," the husband looked at it,
"It must be from the neighbors when we helped them look after the-" the wife smiled until…
Spray!
The flowers sprayed at the couple, as they both started coughing afterwards.
…
At a small home, a mother is making dinner for her family, then she heard her daughter came in,
"Mommy, look what is left at the door," the little girls said as she holds a small flower pot with a small blue flower, the mother looked at it,
"That's oddly peculiar, we don't usually receive something like this before," the mother said as her daughter handed her the flower pot.
"Who's it from?" her daughter asked,
"I honestly don't know sweety, but why don't you wash up, dinner is about to be ready," the mother said, and then her daughter left to wash up, then the mother placed the flower pot on the table,
"Well, whoever it is, does have a strangely odd taste in colo-" she said until…
Spray!
The flower sprayed at her nostril, and the mother started coughing.
…
A young lady returned to her apartment, and discovered a small flower pot with some blue flowers placed at her door,
"Ooh, pretty flowers, maybe from a secret admirer," she said with a smile before she picked it up and brought it into her apartment,
Spray!
A spray was made, and the girl's coughing can be heard from the outside.
…
Ibate stood on a tree as he senses his plan commencing, the blue flowers spreading around the village, many placed at their homes, apartments, and doorsteps, obtaining more control villagers after they got sprayed by his blue flowers.
"It's all coming together," he thought, before he jumped out of the tree and back on the ground, he reverts to his disguise as Kyro and begins to leave the area,
"Mushori," he heard a familiar voice called out him, he turned around and saw Sasuke as he appeared,
"Uchiha, fancy meeting you here," Kyro said,
"I would say the same, but not really… I like to have a word with you, but some place else," Sasuke scorned at him, though Kyro appears curious,
"A rather odd request but… very well," he replied as Sasuke begins to lead the way, both leaving the area.
Mid-evening, playground…
Naruto was able to follow the red-haired girl at a public playground, hid himself behind a big tree where he watches her entertain some young children as they huddled around her.
Akalra picked up some leaves, and presented to the children, the children watched her as she has the leaves levitating from her hand, as it begins to fly around her and then around some of the children. Many smiled and giggled as they are amused by her trick, the leaves soon flew back to Akalra when…
Clap!
She clapped the leaves with her hands, then slowly opened them revealing beautiful butterflies flying around, the children cheered as they loved her performance.
Naruto watches in awe, as the children enjoyed her company, and she doesn't appear dangerous to them at all, he smiled a bit after seeing that, then thought about what the Sin's grandmother said…
Flashback…
"She possesses great power and evil, which will bring harm to both you and anyone who gets near her,"
Flashback over…
"She seemed so harmless," he said, and before he knows it, the red-haired turned her head straight at his direction,
"EH!" Naruto stuttered and quickly hid away behind the tree, hoping she didn't spot, then after that moment, he slowly looked back over, but discovered her already leaving the park, much to the children's dismay, he quickly left his spot to follow her.
Few minutes later, at a Pathway…
Naruto appeared at an open area, as he's unable to locate the red-haired girl,
"Damn it! I lost her," he thought, then he noticed how late it is and decided it's time to head on home. Then, the moment he turned around... he startled and froze when the red-haired girl appeared right in front of him, with her emotionless expression on her face,
"Hello Mr. Uzumaki," Akalra said to him.
