Two weeks have past since Aino lost her memory and nothing has changed. Kakashi took her everywhere he went the first week fearing that who ever caused her to lose her memory would come back for more. Every once in a while in the corner of his eye Kakashi would see Aina watching him but when he turned around no one was there.

One day when Kakashi was off on an S-rank mission, Aino was home washing dishes humming a little tune to herself. As she was washing, deep in her mind the real Aino the, one that remembered everything, was fighting the chains of her forgotten brain that held her tight in her tracks. She had been yanking and pulling with all her might but only managed to pull out less than an inch. Aino took a deep breath and tried one more time pulling with all her might. Blood rushed down her arm as the circulation to her fingers became narrow causing them to turn a purplish blue. When she finally gave up the blood loss had made her dizzy and the tears she had shed trying to fight the pain came rushing out. The pain in her wrist hurt but the most painful thing she realized was she will never be able to tell Kakashi the one thing she never got to say to him.

"I love you...Kakashi"

she said under her breath as she passed out.

By this time the Aino with the memory loss was getting a headache.

"All this hard work must be getting to me."

she said wiping the sweat for her forehead

On his S-rank mission Kakashi couldn't help but miss the Aino he knew. The Aino now was scared of ever little thing. Kakashi missed the natural smell of cherry blossoms that seemed to wrap around every inch of Aino's body. He missed every detail about his beloved Aino the way she walked, her less than average size feet gracing the hard floor with their touch, her smile, how her lips never parted no matter how happy she was, and so much more the list could go on forever.

As he settle down for the night watching the flame of his fire flicker something deep down inside of him felt wrong. Kakashi just shook it off knowing after all he had asked Tsunade to have the ANBU keep an eye on Aino.

Deciding she needed a break Aino went outside for a walk. Walking through the village as the sun set she saw many faces that brought broken fragments of memories but she wasn't sure if they were memories or just a bad case of deja vu. Some where between figuring out what pieces of the puzzle called a memory and a little girl asking Aino if she could have another Ice cream, Aino wondered up a broken path that seem to be hidden. She did know why she was following it , all she knew was that there was something ahead she had to see. When Aino remove the thick overgrown branches from her view she saw on a hill a woman with brownish-black hair about 5'7" feet tall wearing giant wraps around her body looking at a tome.

'Kurenai'

Aino thought

Aino climb up the hill to find the woman crying.

"excuse me."

Aino said with a hint of sadness in her voice.

Kurenai turned around in surprise. the shocked look on her face turned in to a sad smile as she went bad to looking at the stone.

"Hey Aino long time no see. I was just taking to Asuma. you know it been a full year since his death, how time flies."

Tears flowed down the Kurenai's cheeks to the cold ground. Aino couldn't think of anything to say or more less she did want to say anything because this was the first person who acted like they met before. All Aino did was place her hands on Kurenai's shoulder.Kurenai looks to the setting sun.

"We're always told to enjoy our life while we can because the life of a shinobi is sometimes short lived. we grow up knowing this but we never really think about it. Now that Asuma's dead I wonder "what if"."

Kurenai turns to face Aino with a sad smile on her face.

"Aino promise me that your cherish every moment you have with Kakashi because you don't know how lucky you got it right now to be with the person you love."

silence fell between the two as Aino fights to say the words she wanted to ask since meeting Kurenai.

"What do you mean? Did I know Kakashi before i lost my memory?"

A look of fear ran up Kurenai's body as she remembers that Aino lost her memory.

"Well...I...umm got to go"

she said before vanishing in to a cloud of smoke.

running back to the village Kurenai thought

'I got to tell the Hokage before its to late'

Aino stood stunned for a moment before her head start hurting. she grabbed her head as if it was going to fall off and when down on her knees. The pain was so bad that Aino couldn't even see straight but some how she got to her feet and manged to get back to Kakashi house. As soon as she open the door she fell on the floor unable to move or even speak.

"How could this happen!"

Tsunade yelled.

"I'm sorry Hokage, like i said i forget that Aino had lost her memory."

Kurenai said lowering her head.

Tsunade's fist clutch tight as she thought of what might happen.

"Shizune send the ANBU out to check on Aino"

"Yes ma'am"

As Shizune turn the door knob to tell the ANBU member Kakashi open it.

"Kakashi"

All three female shinobi said.

"Kakashi did you mange to get your mission done so soon."

Tsunade said startled

Kakashi's body was covered in wounds from head to toe. Most of the were defense wounds on his arms.

"Yeah I killed the trouble makers and manged to get back the item to its owner."

Kakashi said rubbing the back of his head.

"Kakashi I'm sorry"

Kurenai blurted out

"what do you mean?"

As the three shinobi explained what had happen outside Baldric read their lips smirking.

"This could play out to my advantage."

Baldric whispered as he left to go to Kakashi's house for the big scene.

"WHAT!"

Kakashi snapped

"Tsunade why did you have the ANBU looking after her!?"

Tsunade folded her hands across her chest with a stern look on her face.

"I sorry Kakashi i tried but every ANBU was already doing something I'm sorry."

Kakashi's fist were so tight that blood dripped down to the ground. With out thinking Kakashi ran out and through the village jumping from roof top to roof top straight to his house. The rain started to beat down heavily as he drew closer. When he finally reached the door while he noticed it was open and there right in the door way was Aino passed out holding her head.

"AINO! AINO!"

Kakashi shouted as he picked up Aino's body holding her tight to him. Aino's eyes slowly opened as a flicker of shine from the past Aino was shone. For a minute everything was fine but then Aino pushed Kakashi knocking him on and over the couch.

'Man her mind might be gone but her super human strength ain't'

"Aino whats wrong why did you push me."

"Run Kakashi get out of here."

Aino screamed as she held her gut

"Kakashi please i don't want to hurt you again."

"Hurt...me...again?"

Aino let out a high pitch glass shattering scream

Her eyes rolled in the back in her head as she looked to the sky, a dark blue Chakra swirled around Aino then suddenly vanished. A smirk creep its way on Aino's face as she looked back down at Kakashi with her dark blue eyes.

"Heracrystal Jutsu!"

Ice froze over her right arm from the elbow down to form a sword. In a flash she started running towards Kakashi.

"Now die Kakashi!"

Kakashi blocked Aino's ice sword with a kunai.

"Aino stop this right now. Pull yourself together!"

"Why should I, Kakashi dear after all don't you want to kill me?"

"What?"

Aino pulled back then swung again. Kakashi jumped at the last minute let Aino cut the couch in half. Kakashi jumped on the walk the towards Aino pining her to the walk behind her.

"What are you talking about Aino."

"The pain"

Their weapons cling back and forth destroying everything thing in their path, leaving small wounds on each other.

"Aino you not making any since?"

"The pain i cause you, the Hokage, Naruto, Sakura, Sasuke, everyone i knew but most of all myself. You could tell everytime you looked in my eyes that i was hurting and hurting bad. You didn't know how to help me then it came to you if i didn't remember by May 20 the day we were going to get married."

"Your wrong Aino I-"

Kakashi's words were cut off by a sharp pain in his abs. He looked down to see Aino's sword had some how lodged itself in.

"Aino...I...I...I...lo-"

Kakashi's body slipped off the sword and fell to the floor letting blood swallow it.

Aino fell to her knees tears falling from her face. Her eyes not back to their normal bright green. blood stained her hands.

"Kakashi I'm sorry i tried fighting it. I didn't mean to hurt you. Kakashi please answer me! KAKASHI-"

Aino's right arm had grown a mind of its own because it had lodged itself in the same place in Aino's body as it had Kakashi's. The arm removed itself pulling out blood as Aino fell over onto Kakashi.

'Aino...'

Was the last thought that raced through Kakashi's mind.

Outside of the house Baldric was laughing his ass off enjoying the fight.

"To bad Aino is dead. Master Phoenix is going to be so mad at me but I got to kill the copy ninja so I'm happy."

"Thank you so much Baldric."

A womans voice called out from the dark.

Baldric turned around to see Aina smiling a evil smile.

"Aina I'm going to kill you"

Before Baldric could pull out his weapon Aina had all her right arm into a Ice sword, cut off his head ,and have the ice mealt from her arm, in a matter of seconds.

Baldrics body fell to the cold hard ground coving it in blood as his head rolled down the hill into the near by stream and floating off somewhere.

"Now its time for me to do my job."

Aina said under her breath as she pulled out thread with the evil smile still on her face.
