"There are many types of monsters that scare me: Monsters who cause troubles without showing themselves, monsters who abduct children, monsters who devour dreams, monsters who suck blood… and then, monsters who tell nothing but lies. Lying monsters are a real nuisance: They are much more cunning than others: They pose as humans even though they have no understanding of the human heart; they eat even though they've never experienced hunger; they study even though they have no interest in academics; they seek friendship even though they do not know how to love. If I were to encounter such monsters, I would likely be eaten by them… because in truth, I am that monster."~ Death Note

….

The funny thing about chance is that it is a finicky thing. Chance picks and chooses who it will grant its luck too. I hated chance, especially leaving things up to chance. It was a right bastard.

A sigh escaped my lips, I was not looking forward to today. Shishou I think was well in tuned to my mood and the shake me from my thoughts, he ever so kindly dropped my ass to the ground. It's what I get for not paying attention while sparring. There was a quiet snicker off the side and I shot the boy a look.

"Distracted?" Shishou asked watching as I sat up, I rubbed my sore shoulder while nodding my head.

"Hai, sorry shishou." Because my distraction was causing his time to be wasted. The one thing worse than chance was wasted time. Shishou sighed, he placed his hand on top of my head. I glared through my eyelashes he knew I hated that. His smirk was evident of that fact as well.

"Go take a break, and take our guest with you." I nod my head at him in acceptances as I am no use at the moment as distracted as I am. A sigh escapes my lips.

"Come along Haku, let's get lunch." I have the ice user follow me around as I amble in the direction of my brother's aggravated chakra signature. Carefully I nudge the older boy.

We arrive on an irritating scene. Looks like some things were staying the same. The next second the boy with the painted face has senbon needles sticking out of his hand and the Hokage's grandson is falling to the floor. Let it be noted here that I am a chuunin only in title but have the skill of a tokubetsu jonin, so I utilize the shunshin to appear between the two Suna genin and catch the boy.

My companion stays in his spot, senbon ready between his fingers. I give my brother a quirky smile. "What do we have going on here?" Carefully I set the child onto the ground nudging him in the direction of my brother, his female teammate, and the two other children.

"Well, well, well if it isn't another Konoha genin." Of all the days to not have my chunin vest on. I only wore the damn thing if I was going out of the village. The suna male plucks the needles from his hand throwing them down on to the stone road. They make a nice clanging sound as the weapons bounce off the ground.

Let me make another note here, because I haven't ever gone into to detail of my skill. I was a fuinjutsu specialist whose teacher had been an Anbu infiltration captain, I was stronger and faster than anyone my age, and on par combat wise with many jonin. On another note, I was also a jinchuriki and the daughter of the last Uzumaki and the Yondaime Hokage. Advantages to which I always utilized.

This boy, who was at maybe a low chunin level in skill. Well he was no match for me. I'd been training with jonin level shinobi since I made genin almost five years ago. It had nothing to do with chance, or luck of the draw, I was just better.

I could sense the chakra of the last Uchiha, but I ignored him. This might have been a big entrance for him or something but it was a moot point now. He should have acted sooner. No one, and I do mean no one picked on my brother. Not even guest for the exams.

The boy with the painted face made an attempt to grab me. But I side stepped his hand with elegance only gained from experience. I'm sure I was smirking, I couldn't help it the narcissist inside me loved it.

"I'm sorry but you'll have to try harder if you actually wanted to hurt me." My voice is void of any emotion, and my eyes daring. I wanted him to try, it gave me an excuse to harm him.

The sand shinobi made another swipe at me, I ducked under his arm and pivoted around his body. My foot made quick contact to the back of his knee it gave a satisfying pop as the boy staggered. A look of realization crossed the girls face, as if it seemed to click that I was in fact not a genin.

I dodged another attack from the boy, a smirk edging its way on my face. "Why you little brat, come here." He still couldn't land a hit on me. Then at the edge of my sense I felt it. A wave of malicious chakra and I knew the one tail's host was near. I wanted to meet him.

For no other reason than he would become a great friend to my brother. Plus I think it would be an interesting story to tell the fox, he'd get a kick out of it.

My companion's eyes drifted into the direction of the demonic chakra before looking back at me. Probably to ensure that I was fine. I don't know how I got stuck with the ice user, it just sort of happened. It was probably a punishment of some kind, but honestly I kind of liked his company.

"That's enough Kankuro." The voice is cold, I can tell it sends shivers down their spines as they are both frozen in their place. I stand up straight in my spot, ready to pounce if necessary I didn't need this unstable host to attack anyone here. It wasn't a good idea.

My smirk is still in place as I watch with a satisfied expression as the red headed boy scolds his sibling's behavior. I ignore the death threats that he gives his own blood, and my smile widens when he turns his cold eyes onto me and then he gets a full blast of my killer intent. It's only aimed at him, and he gets an almost feral look.

"I'm out of your league." I let just a glimmer of the fox's dark chakra slip out, it's only a warning and I'll have to explain myself later to shishou but it's worth it. The boy doesn't even blink, so the beast has really taken over his mind. How utterly charming.

My intent vanishes, and I am giving the three a false cheery smile afterwards and make a count of the people around. Behind me there is my brother, the kids and the female of team seven, then in the tree above is the Uchiha's whose limelight I have stolen, and then in front of me are the three Suna genin.

"Who are you?" His tone is flat, his eyes narrow on me. Like I am the biggest threat here, and he is not wrong.

"Ah that's a boring questions, the better question is what are you doing in Konoha sand genin?" I know about the exams, my sempai has been whining about it for the last two months during training. However, I want to give them the chance to tell the truth regardless that I know they want.

"We are here for the chunin exams, but you already know that." The girl speaks, she gives me a pointed look to which I shrug.

"Then you should know that attacking civilians is strictly prohibited to foreign shinobi. I should report this incident." I nod my head at the ice user who has come to stand next to me, senbon still between his fingers just in case.

The older two have an uneasy look on their face. "Look let's just pretend this never happened, we're sorry." I tilt my head and give them a thoughtful look. Because truthfully I was going to let it go anyway, it's not like my brother got hurt because of them. Not yet at least, and I couldn't really fault them for things that might just not happen.

Well I could, but I was not going to this time around.

"I see no reason as to why that is a problem, consider this a warning then. Just remember I will not be so lenient next time." It's a promise, one I know will be lived up too.

"Thank you, we will go. We are sorry to have bothered you." The blonde girl says, she is the smart one among them. That much is obvious. I wave off her words, I do not care.

"Answer the question." He says, his eyes bore into me. I smirk.

"Uzumaki Mitomi, nice to meet you. And you are?" My tone is dangerous, because it is never nice to meet me. I am not nice.

"Gaara of the Desert." He gives his name in response, accepting that I am the bigger monster and then turns to walk away. His sibling follow, confused looks across their faces.

I watch them leave with a guarded expression and then turn to look up at the last Uchiha. "You should have intervened sooner." His expression is dark, he does not appreciate my tone. I do not care. Then I round my eyes to my brother and the pinkette a sigh falls from my lips. Idiots.

It was not chance that caused me to be here, and not chance that warranted my reaction. Just bad timing, it was always bad timing. I turn my eyes to Haku we share a similar thought. Finally I let out a groan.

"Ah shishou is going to kill me, we were supposed to be back ten minutes ago!" I do not give them any time to ask me questions, as I do not want to explain, and vanish from the spot. So I do not here when the girl ask my brother if we're related and I do not hear his exclamation of yes and how cool I am. Haku tells me about it later in exasperation for leaving him behind.

Shishou is giving me a look when I reappear in the training field. Like he knows that I let some of the fox's chakra out and he disapproves. I nod my head in acceptance of the scolding look, because I had known better but I just couldn't help myself.

I know for a fact that I have made an enemy today. But I do not care, it was better to have an unstable jinchuriki focused on a trained and mostly sane chunin who was also a jinchuriki versus having his focus on untrained genin.

Maybe I was unlucky.

But then again what do I know? It not like I knew the future…

Oh wait...

That's right...

I did…

But then again, I was also a liar.

XOXOX

This chapter kind of got away from me. But you get to see that Mitomi is a little unhinged, so that's nice. Yes I know she seems like a Mary Sue, but I promise she isn't. There will be things that she is incapable of doing.

She powerful because honestly, if we took a self-assured adult and stuck them into the body of a child who had the capability to use chakra and had a beast in there belly what do you think would happen? The girl has been training for years, and has had only higher ranking shinibi training her. They want her to be weapon, so a very powerful weapon she has become. Besides if we can have OP characters like Gaara and Naruto then why an OC of the same caliber couldn't be allowed? It's dumb to think that that. Mitomo and Naruto are twins, they should be capable of the same strengths. Also as you will come to find out Mitomi has some big weaknesses and they make her strong.

So I apologize to anyone who doesn't like an OP OC and has a problem with how I am writing this. But I want to remind you of something. Mitomi isn't trying to hide or make herself weak she lives up to her strengths and trains through her faults all so she can be powerful enough to protect the person she loves. The desire to protect the ones we love makes us the strongest.

So please let me know what you think! I love hearing from you guys!

Per usual I own nothing.

Sincerely, La'Rae

P.S. This is the longest chapter yet at a startling 1,890! Woot!
