Disclaimer: don't own Naruto

This is a half a chapter because I have an important announcement that I need to do before I start the big fight with Inu and Gaara… which I can't wait to write (it's going to have a little TuyenxGaara in it to… if you'd call it that)

---------------------Chapter 13 1/2--------------------------

Inu was slowly cleaning her forge, slightly regretting that she told Tuyen that she couldn't teacher to that night, she was stiff from working and a nice warm up would really do the trick right now.

-Flash back of 3 nights ago-

"Wow Tuyen your learning these moves really quickly" Inu told her student. The brunet looked up and smiled.

"Thank you, I love reading the scrolls you give me, and sometimes I even read the ones Itachi has, but only the ones he lets me…"

Inu laughed lightly, "well that's good, because I'm not going to be able to teach you for a while… probably 4 or 5 days, My master needs me for some work that's going to take up most of my time, so here read these and practice. I'll come to your work station when I have more time again… ok?"

Tuyen nodded then remembered that the dark purple haired girl couldn't see "ok and thank you so much for everything you have already taught me!"

"Oh it's nothing; you get lots of rest and study up kid"

"Ok! Bye and thanks again!!!" with that the small brunette ran off.

"You do know that teaching slaves it forbidden" an oily voice said as 2 green eyes appeared from the shadows behind Inu. The blind smith gave a thin smile.

"I'm just showing her some basics, as you did for me…master" the snake man chuckled as he walked up behind the purple haired girl and put a hand on her shoulder.

"Very true, you have an answer for everything don't you?"

"I am your servant aren't I?"

Orochimaru smiled as he ran his fingers threw Inu's thick purple hair "just be careful, I don't want my little Kainu to get hurt by doing something she shouldn't" Inu gave a slight shudder but then turned to him.

"I'm your loyal servant as always Master"

-end-

"Uhhhh I'm stiff!!! Want to fight sooo badly!!" the blind girl complained as she headed toward the door ready to go back to her room. Little did she know her wish was about to be granted but maybe not as how she would have hoped.

---------------------end--------------------------

Ok I need to know something important before I write the next chapter.

Because I love reviews more then life and I want my readers to LIKE what they are reading I decided that you guys should decide what I should do... should I have:

InuXSasuke

InuXNeji

InuXsomeone else

no romance with Inu.

I should have asked you all this in the last chapter but I forgot… Darn my stupid memory so I made a little ½ chapter so you can get a little reading and vote to!

Anyway I'm leaning more for a Sasuke only because I think it would be more fun, but Neji could also be fun to write as well. As for someone else… well that would be harder for me but if someone has there heart set on someone else please tell! As I said I'm only here to please

So vote and the next chapter will be up VERY soon!!!
