AUTHOR'S NOTE: SO, this is a rundown of all of the things I had planned... and well... hope it covers a few things or compensates for me not updating this story any longer. Thank you to those that have stayed with me and this story. Also, I left some Omake here just parts of the chapter.. since I make parts of the scenes in my phone then laptop before combining them and arranging them.

Iruna tells Minato-san of the massacre, but Madara or the one taking the steps for him was steps ahead of Minato and Irunas' plans. In the end, the Uchiha Massacre still happened, and Iruna agreeing with Madara becoming the scapegoat once more. Iruna spouted to Madara about killing Obito before she let him use him as a puppet, which is half true. She took Koushis' words into consideration and choice to keep him around.

After the massacre, only Obito, Itachi and Sasuke remained as the surviving known Uchiha aside from Iruna. Obito becomes a jounin together with Guy and with Itachis' help he got a better grasp of his mangekyou. Itachi retires from anbu opting to take hospital duty, so he can stay in Konoha and keep an eye on Sasuke. Sasuke suffered an accident almost making him lose his sight. If it weren't for Itachi, Sasuke would have never been able to see again. Only for Sasuke to see once more, it meant he would lose the capability to wield his sharingan.

They could have had replacement eyes to take from their dead relatives, but before Iruna left she made sure to destroy all of their dead relatives' eyes. It was to make sure no one wield steal the sharingan for their selfish gains, like Danzo.

Iruna labelled as a rogue, travelled around in search of the kyuubi, before Kakashi brought her back to Konoha. The added trouble for Iruna was that aside from bandits she would have to avoid hunter shinobis from Konoha. She wasn't a direct memberof Akatasuki, but the members of Akatsuki were instructed to not engage her in a fight and leave her alone. Her deal with pseudo-Madara gave her a bit of protection from the immortal pair of Akatsuki. She gained something from the deal, even though she was to do as the pseudo-Madara told her and not ask questions. She could do what she wanted if she wasn't doing her mission from him.

Iruna didn't travel alone. She was joined by Koushi in his human form. She was delighted to have a travel companion, but didn't allow it to show when he had showed up unannounced.

Years passed by and while doing her missions. She also did her own personal mission. During those years, Iruna had come across some members of the Akatsuki, she knows Shisui is a member, which on their first meeting didn't surprise her at all. She did expect it as a possibility. She would meet him, when a crow with a sharingan eye would show up by the branches of a tree she and Koushi would bypass.

They would talk like old friends catching up on each other and even about the three people back in Konoha. Of course, the two never expected that they would end up as rogue shinobi, only Shisui remained as missing, assumed dead already back in Konoha. Shisui stayed as an Akatsuki member to keep a better eye on the organization. Better to be within ranks to know if Konoha would be in danger is what he had in mind.

She came across a number of people in those few years. Obito-who had Iruna at the top of his list to hunt down with Asuma in the list. Well more like capture to return back to Konoha. She had trouble in their clash with his ability to phase through objects or her hits, but it had been a while that she sparred with anyone aside from Koushi. HyuugaHaru-she came across throwing caution to the wind saying that he was looking for a very large body of chakra in the wilderness. She fought with him to gauge how much he had gotten stronger from their spars in Konoha. She always bumps into him following rumors and information, somehow them ending up in a race to see who finds the kyuubi first. They always got into a fight when they meet. Rivals? They were something like that.

Anyway, during the time Iruna doesn't have a mission. Yes, she searched for the Kyuubi and at the same time looked for the other hosts. She had a theory, that maybe, the hosts can survive if the if the yin or yang of the bijuus remained in their body/seal they could live. Naruto only had the Yang side of the kyuubi in him, and it could work. She already had a seal made that during the extraction the Akatsuki does, that only half will be taken...a gamble actually. It wasn't tested, because how is she able to test that kind of seal, not like she could test that on a being? She could, but she had morals and she didn't want to be like Orochimaru with his experiments.

She only managed to place the seal on three hosts. The bubble jutsu user, the red haired old man-she had a tracking seal on his headband, and the overexcited girl named Fu.

There was still the kyuubi, she wondered what she would do once she found the oversized fox. All she could think was how crucial it seemed that Minato could wield the powers of the Kyuubi. She needed to talk to Minato though for that idea, though Minato had Hyuuga Haru head the search for the Kyuubi. Iruna was still in contact with him via her summons, she didn't send her summons to Minato. Instead she had her summons head to the frogs realm to send Minato a message to be safe. She was that paranoid at her messages getting intercepted. She could have used a genjutsu message, but she was scared of someone else activating it and never reaching the one the message was intended for.

Through a visit to the frog's realm, Iruna and Minato, were able to talk. Minato was apprehensive about having the kyuubi sealed into him making him a host, but

Iruna only had him as the best choice and no one else. She also had a plan about having the kyuubi sealed into him without overloading his chakra channels from the sealing. She mentioned the chakra tattoos she had on herself, while the earrings she wore absorbed nature chakra, the nature chakra would go to the chakra tattoos she had on her arms. The chakra tattoo worked like a reserve to store the nature chakra from her earrings. Her tattoos getting connected to her sharingan on her use of the tattoos was on a mistake on her part when she had done the chakra tattoos which were actually seals. Only a seal that worked like a dam, she had to release the chakra collected if it was too much for her body to handle. She is a sage.

Minato, reluctant as he was agreed with her plan and asked if he could look at her design for the chakra tattoos to study it and make his own input or even ideas for it to work along with the sealing. He was mad that Iruna placed a seal on herself without it being tested and learned how Kakashi felt when he had given Naruto Icha-icha. That was the day, she was afraid of Angry Minato, and she knew he's a kind person.

As they say, don't make kind people angry at you, it's truly scary. One never knows how they would snap, unlike those that showed their anger out in the open. Minato and Iruna once more worked together on the seal, Iruna would be using for Minato. She was afraid that if it failed, it would mean the fourth Hokages death. She would blame herself for the idea she thought off. She had her doubts, but Minato ever the kind mentor and guide for her. He trusted her and eased her troubled mind.

Itachi remained as a medic nin even after Sasuke had become genin and yes, still in the same team as Naruto and Sakura. Kakashi is still their jounin sensei, and as for his personality, he did learn to be less serious. Let's just say Obito did rub off on him and Kakashi also with Obito.

Sasuke as he wouldn't be able to use the sharingan. He followed in Irunas' footsteps and started to learn about fuinjutsu a year from the lost of him using the sharingan. He still recalls the way Iruna had called on her weapons with just a snap and even without collecting them personally, she would have her kunai in her hands. He never realized how much work she did until he started learning himself. Also, he believed in Iruna along with Itachi and Obito. That she wouldn't have killed the clan. He openly hated how they called her a traitor, and glared at anyone he knew thought of his sister as a traitor-ahem-Sakura. He aspires to be great fuinjutsu maker/user almost like his sister.

Sakura... still the fangirl that she is, is jealous of Tenten and Hinata when she sees them talking to Sasuke and Sasuke having conversations with them and not her. She tries almost everything to gain his attention that she badmouths his sister, which was really a wrong move. Her and along with Ino fell into his bad list. She's still weak. (I dont have anything against Sakura, but she was decent before she got focused on a crush. I had my own share of crushes, but my life was more inclined to reading, video games, and music, also language, so i dont have that much time to put in with crushes.) She wants to be Sasukes' wife still. Haaa...

Naruto? He's confused with how Iruna is said as a traitor when his dad, Obito and Kakashi didn't think of her as one. He was in the same house as her for almost a year. She did fool around with him, sometimes doing pranks at him for the prank he did with her. They fooled around and he thought of her like an older sister, like Kakashi and Obito. No. He doesn't end up with a crush on Sakura anymore. Still wants to be Hokage and yes can use the shadow clone jutsu.

Just the scene I had in mind with Kakashi meeting his team. Yes, he was watching them in the classroom. Sakura getting ignored by Sasuke as he read his scroll on seals or on a type of seal. Naruto getting bored from waiting, suggesting to Sasuke about a prank for their teacher. Sasuke listened as he wanted to test his seal for the prank.

Omake: After the massacre

It was like wildfire that news spread quickly to the other shinobi villages. The Uchiha clan had been massacred. It was a great hit to Konohas' attack force with the lost of the Uchiha Police force. It meant lesser guards, but Konoha had other great shinobi clans within its walls. Maybe not as powerful as the Uchiha, but not all was lost. Konoha would still stand.

The Uchiha clan, my clan, now only had four survivors, three male, and one female. The sole female Uchiha considered as a former Uchiha and the Grey trickster, a former C-ranked shinobi in the hit list guidebook changed to an A-ranked shinobi and the description (assumed) killer of the Uchiha clan, and rogue shinobi was added. There was some warning included, but it's not that important. The intel for the guidebook was good. They were really up-to-date.

Reading the contents of the guidebook though made me think of the goals I set for myself. I was only aiming to be strong enough to protect those important to me and using fuinjutsu to fight.

My goals are simple and easy enough to understand. I didn't include anything else, but why isn't there something about fuinjutsu under my name at the least?! They got Kushina-sensei as my teacher there, but they can't even add fuinjutsu?!

Tsch, for an up-to-date guidebook they don't even know I'm adept in seals.

Omake: A visit to the fire capital - Iruna together with Koushi is at the capital and comes across Asuma at the weapon shop. Iruna is selling the storage scrolls she made for money. She needs money after all.

While we were in the weapon shop, there was a bald man in monk garbs and a guy with black ash hair wearing a vest with a fur edged hood on top of his shirt. Both of them were requesting for their weapons to be sharpened. The bald man used claws as a weapon while the rugged looking guy used trench knives.

I had looked at the rugged man a little too long that he had turned to me in interest.

"Yes, my lady?" He said flashing me a flirtatious smile.

"How old are you?" I blurted out.

"Twenty two"

"You look like you're in your mid-thirties." I said causing his companion to burst out into laughter.

"You should really clean up more if she thinks you're that old." The bald man said. "Are you here with anyone?"

"I am."

"Who?" The rugged man answered.

"I'm here with my fiancé." I said smiling and trying to flush at the mention of fiancé. Acting, tsch, shinobis' are all-rounders. What's left is singing and dancing and you get an entertainer. Why did I end up picking that background of an engaged couple?

"Oh, congratulations on your betrothal." The bald man said genuine happiness radiated from his words.

Now it really made me blush. He makes it sound real even though it's not. After receiving the money for the storage scrolls from the weapons dealer, I came out of the shop and asked Koushi who made the backgrounds for the disguises. At the mention of Yuta, I swore that Phoenix needs to stop with the novels and songs he reads at the archives.

Hope you liked the Omake! ^w^
