Hehe I'm kind of late I had a bit of trouble writing this one it's also shorter than usual but it is over 2000 near 3000 actually. Alright before the show begins a couple of shout outs.

Dutchypuppy- always good to see you review! Thanks for voting!

KuramaMustangElric- Ah it seems your confused Gaara didn't say that he was her mate, he was treating her like a dog. Saying that he was going to breed her with someone appropriate, as if Kankuro didn't have a pedigree.

A55- welcome to the few people that review my thingy!

P.S The people in cloaks don't get discussed until next chapter. Oh yeah I have a note in this one it'll be after the story

Ah Miko darling please tell them the secret

(Miko-chan giggling) Miko-chan and LadyDraconisia don't own Naruto or any of the ideas. LadyDraconisia does own Miko-chan and any of the OCs mentioned.

Gaara: Actually I own Miko

Miko: BASTARD!

Chapter 8 The Ultimate Fire Style!

"Do you think we should take her to the hospital?" a voice said.

"No, I'm sure she'll be all right." Another voice said.

"But, the competition is close!"

"Well then she will just forfeit."

Miko's eyes opened her crusty eyes.

I feel terrible… Like I was at a frat party.

"Neh…" Miko moaned.

"She's awake!" Miko saw the girls on her team and the sand siblings.

"Yo, man what happened last night." She slurred.

They all chuckled a bit.

"I'll get you some coffee." Temari said walking off. The girls helped Miko sit up.

"Here," she handed her a mug full of coffee.

"So what happened?" Miko asked sipping the scorching coffee like nothing.

"Well, you've been asleep for the last two days, and the finals of the Chunin exams have been announced."

Miko nodded slowly.

"So…"

"It's one-on-one battling; you're going against some Hyuga. Nothing special from what I hear." Kita said shrugging.

"What about you guys?" Miko asked.

"We've got some, ah tougher competition. Specifically certain grass ninja that have bad reputations." Kita sighed.

"Well grass ninja usually use nature style jutsu, and fire is the best at destroying that. I could train with you guys." Miko said sweetly.

The girls looked at one another.

"We've been meaning to ask you about that; your jutsu I've never heard of it."

"You mean the Ultimate Fire Style? Of course you haven't heard about it, it a lost jutsu. Dralo taught it to me. You wouldn't believe how hard it is to master." Miko shook her head.

"So it's not a Keke-Genki?" Temari asked.

"No, but you would have to start young, while the body is still growing. Your body morphs into what the jutsu requires, like eating fire."

"Wait you have a jutsu to eat fire?" Kankuro exclaimed.

"No, no, no I have a jutsu that requires I eat fire." Miko said blankly.

They gawked at her.

"We'll should we get going?" Miko asked drinking the last bit of coffee.

They all hopped up to go train.

Gaara, and the rest of the sand siblings sat down to watch the younger shinobi train.

"All right so I assume you both can use fire-style?" Miko said. The girls nodded.

"All right we'll start with the basic, this jutsu is like the fire ball jutsu except uhh… ultimate?"

"Ultimate Fire Style: Incineration!" Miko said launching a fire ball into the air.

"Of course the more chakra you put in it the hotter it is, at full power it can actually incinerate a boulder, like this."

"Ultimate Fire Style: Incineration!" This time Miko let out a raging hot blue and white fire ball, and decimated the nearest tree. All that was left was ash, and not much of that.

"So the first thing you need to do…" Miko explained.

By the time she was done the girls were laying exhausted on the ground.

Times like this I'm happy I've already passed these exams. Temari thought shivering. Talk about brutal.

Temari looked sideways at her younger brother.

Gaara, I wonder what he's thinking about…

In The Twisted Mind of The Young Kazekage

CHIBI GAARA CHIKEN DANCE PARTY! (Yeah just picture that in your mind.)

In the real world…

*…*

"Gaara what are you thinking about?"

*…*

"Nothing Temari, nothing." Gaara replied. fufufufu

"All right, training is finished, tomorrow the Chunin exams!" Miko cheered.

~*~ Tomorrow, The Chunin Exam Finals. ~*~

Tap, tap, Miko scuffed her black boots on the dirt of the arena.

Spectators cheered and talked in the stands. Miko's eyes glared against the sun as she looked up to where the Hokage, and Kazekage were.

Ever since Gaara became Kazekage he was always at the Chunin exams. Miko waved up to the figure she couldn't see.

WHAK!

Miko rubbed the back of her head, and looked up pouting at the person who had hit her.

"Why did you hit Miko-chan?" Miko asked the blue haired shinobi.

"Because idiot you're not supposed to wave at them!" Nao growled.

"But Gaara-chan is Miko-chan's friend!" Miko argued.

"Stop talking in third person Miko-chan, you sound as if you were born in a happy house."

"Happy house? Miko would love to have been born in a happy house, do they have waffles?"

Nao sighed "I'm sure they would for you Miko-chan, I'm sure they would."

"All right, quiet, quiet, SHUT UP!" the Hokage roared. The stadium quickly quieted down.

"All of the contestants please go up to your seats, except for" The Hokage paused "Mitta Ogaxure and Kaede Legakik."

Mitta stood straight as the others filed out. Her opponent appeared to be a young male around fifteen with his hair in a clip piled onto his head.

"Back out now, and you won't have to die." He hissed coldly, but his eyes glittered at the prospect. And so they fought.

After they had beaten each other to a near pulp the other Nin pulled a unsuspected jutsu. The gen-jutsu had caught Mitta by surprise trapping her in her mind. The gen-jutsu made the girl shake her eyes opened wide.

The crowd froze for a moment.

"Mitta-san!" Miko called out hoping to snap her out of her trance. However Mitta just stood there, unmoving.

Then the grass nin began to walk towards her in slow measured steps. He pulled out a kunai. The crowd was silent nothing, but the winds rustling through trees could be heard.

Just as he was about to strike Mitta pulled out a kunai and shoved it in his gut. He gurgled as blood pooled out of his mouth. His shocked expression gave Mitta the slightest wave of pleasure.

The nin stumbled back, falling onto his back.

"KO!" Miko cheered deeply from the stands.

"The winner is Mitta Ogaxure!" The proctor said the obvious.

"HAHAHA DAMN PEDOPHILE!" Miko laughed aloud oblivious to the glaring eyes of the other Grass Ninja. Kita pulled her down and whacked the back of her head.

"Are you trying to get us killed?" she hissed.

"Miko-chan thinks we can handle them!" (insert Guy smile)

To kill her or not to kill her, that is the question… Kita thought already reaching out to choke her. Which she might have unless Mitta hadn't come back.

The rest of the matches were unimportant and pathetic to mention.

"Kita Suncor, and Likka Morophi." The Hokage called out.

"Good luck Kita-chan!" Miko said somewhat unhappily. She had a bad feeling about this match. When she had previously met the grass nin she had gotten a rather bad feeling from Likka.

When the match first started they merely used taijutsu. Neither of them seemed to be sweating at all.

Suddenly the grass nin pulled out an umbrella.

"Ninja Art: Senbon Rainstorm!" He called out as it literally rained senbon from the umbrella.

Kita-chan! Miko was on her feet staring at the field.

Hatchling don't worry she may be easy picking for us, but she is pretty good for her age.

Dralo's attempt at cheering her up was slightly comforting. Miko leaned back in her seat not paying attention to the fight.

Dralo I've put it off for a while now, but I will have to talk to Gaara-chan about the guys in the woods. I ever so dimly remember them Dralo. Who are they?

Sorry Hatchling I can't tell you that. Besides I don't know the details, but I can tell you the obvious they are after the jinchuuriki. And somehow they found about the females as well.

Somewhat frustrated Miko turned her attention back to the field.

Wood Element: Plant Evolution Skill! The nin tossed some seeds out and they immediately grew into grass on the dusty ground. The grass wove around Kita's legs.

No one in the stands understood what was happening until the blood began to seep out of her legs.

I need to stop this. NOW!

Ultimate Fire Style: Incineration! A red flame not neatly as impressive as Miko's erupted through Kita's mouth.

However the fire ball possessed speed that Miko's didn't. Which of course what Miko taught her to do.

~*~ Flashback ~*~

"Your too old to make it to hot, and we don't have enough time for me to teach you to make a larger one so listen. Despite what you may believe fire style isn't about chakra, it's about form. Fire is hard to control in fact it's the closest relative is wind. Fire is free, fire is beauty, so don't get cocky with it, just like a teenage girl it'll come and bite you in the ass. So what were looking for is speed, purse your lips close together, that's what will give you speed. Don't forget enough chakra to actually get it away from your face…"

"Hai, Miko-sensei!" the chirped like grade-schoolers.

~*~ End Flashback ~*~

The fire ball hit the grass nin sending him to the ground. Burnt and attempting to crawl away he cried out,

"I give up!" and just like that the match was over. Another match no one paid attention to happened, and after that. Then the last match was about to begin.

The crowd seemed anxious about this one. The last match was to happen between one of the Hyuuga clan, and the rumored Dragon Queen.

"So who's up next?" Miko said munching on some popcorn.

"You idiot!" the girls said in unison.

"Hey, I wonder how the Dragon Queen rumor got started." Kita said abruptly.

"Don't know, happens eventually I've gained lots of nicknames. The kids back home call me Lady Draconisia. I've got to say I prefer that over Dragon Queen. Whoever made that up is a total idiot." Miko said munching on some more popcorn.

"I told you." A gruff voice commented.

The girls turned to see Naruto and Sasuke.

"You're the one who made the rumor?" Kita asked.

"That is correct, come on who would want to see some unknown loser fight a Hyuga?" The older blonde said simply.

"you were an unknown loser, and people came to see you." Chicken-butt-hair guy said.

"I wasn't a no-body!" Naruto flushed "I was the underdog that made it through the exams!"

"You were also the first match, the only reason they stayed was to see me." He rolled his eyes.

"You came late! You didn't even get to fight BASTERD!"

Before they could start trading insults the Hokage spoke again.

"Miko Draconisia, and Keiji Hyuuga please step forward."

Miko nervously made her way down.

Hyuuga why does that sound so familiar?

Miko stood in front of a spiky black haired shinobi. She smiled at him. His pupil-less eyes widened a fraction.

"Fight well!" she cheered happily.

"uh… you as well, auntie." He replied.

Miko's smile dipped,

Did he just call me auntie!

As soon as the proctor called for it to start Miko moved. Going in with taijutsu was most likely not the wisest thing she had done.

Before she knew it she had been knocked back her legs feeling like jelly.

Hatchling patience, remember…

Suddenly a fight flashed in front of Miko's eyes. One with her fighting a Hyuuga. That one was much better than this one.

Miko separated herself from the younger nin.

"I don't want to kill you, kid so watch yourself." She said her personality switching into a more serious tone. The child didn't seem all that surprised by it.

"Ultimate Fire Style: Incineration!" fire erupted from her mouth.

"Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven!" A whirlwind of chakra erupted around him decapitating the fire.

Impossible a child like him shouldn't be able to do that! Miko was shocked and at a loss, how could she get close enough. She was no good at weapons and her taijutsu was nowhere near a Hyuuga's level.

Suddenly she smiled as a plan formed in her head. Her hands formed the seals for a summoning, but she slapped her palm on her stomach.

"Summoning!" After the summons was complete the crowd was on their feet wondering what she had summoned, but nothing had appeared.

Miko flashed more hand signs and the Hyuuga watched byakugan ready.

"Ultimate Fire Style: Consuming Fire Tornado!" I'll give you something to look at!

Chakra filled fire ran amok, and just as she had planned he did the chakra whirlwind. Miko ran forward and reached her hand through the whirlwind. The rush of chakra was hard to go against, but she managed to grab the Hyuuga in mid turn.

Roughly she yanked him out and punched him, sending him backwards. The crowd gasped at the odd display they assumed her hand must be a bloody mess however it was unharmed.

The Hyuuga attempted to rise, but Miko kicked him in the temple. Being yanked out of the Revolving Heaven, had startled him into paralysis already.

"You see Revolving Heaven is a great defense and all, but it can always be crushed after all it can only hold so much. Besides if you run into any earth style users your screwed." She glanced down at the boy.

She now realized his body was bruised up.

The training he must have endured… Miko now felt bad for beating him.

The proctor announced her as the winner. The crowds claps fell on deaf ears.

Hyuuga… Hyuuga… Neji Hyuuga? A flicker off a memory passed through her head.

"Miko-chan good job!" Naruto cheered. Miko gave her a half smile.

"Naru-chan do you know a Neji?" the long haired blonde nodded,

"Yeah, he's the Hyuuga I went against."

Miko thought for a moment about it.

"Do you know him?" She asked. Miko nodded, she was sure she knew him from somewhere. Both the girls walked off.

The red haired Kazekage had watched all the matches indifferently. The Hyuuga might have done better if her hadn't been put against Miko-chan.

"Your thoughts Lord Kazekage?" The female Hokage asked.

"The Hyuuga that was against Miko-chan, do you have him in special training?" The Hokage shook her head.

"You should." He said still staring at the dusty arena below.

"Why," She asked the young red-head curiously, the Kazekage seemed to puzzle her.

"He has potential, he appears to be hard working."

"Hard working doesn't mean he's good, the other girl knocked him out in mere seconds." The Hokage growled angry with her own ninja.

To her surprise the Kazekage chuckled a bit.

"Ah, but Miko is easily the level of any of the Kages." The Hokage stared at him.

"That little girl?"

"She is like Naruto and I, a jinchuuriki that has allied with Suna after she lost her memories. Speaking of which I would like to schedule a meeting with you, Miko-chan will of course be present." He folded his hands in front of his mouth.

The Hokage nodded knowing that he saw her.

He disappeared in a swirl of sand.

Curious, very, curious indeed I haven't seen him this excited since Naru's surprise birthday party. O' Kami she hoped she never had to deal with another drunken Kazekage…

After Miko had been rounded up, her and Gaara made their way to the Hokage office.

"Neh, neh Gaara-chan Miko-chan thinks that the Hyuuga boy has potential. What does Gaara-chan think?" she waited patiently for the answer.

"I agree he is hard working."

"Miko-chan made many knew friends today. Miko made friends with Guy-Sensei. Naru-chan says Guy-Sensei trained with Neji-san, and Bushy-Brows-kun. Miko thinks that Keiji-kun would do well to train with Guy-Sensei."

"Why not let Neji-san train with him after all he is a Hyuuga as well." Gaara said.

"Ah, well Neji-san dose not really like Mika-chan." She slightly rubbed her stomach.

Gaara noticed.

"Let me see." Miko backed away from him.

"No!" she yelled sprinting away.

"Omae!" **(

Gaara's sand curled around her and he lifted up her shirt to reveal a large blue and black bruise.

His anger seemed to radiate from him.

"Where is that damn Hyuuga!" he growled out already stomping off to find him.

"No, no it is Miko-chan's fault!" Miko said tackling him at the waist.

"How could it be your fault?" Gaara said turning in her arms, glaring down at her.

"Ah well Miko-chan had a mission, and my mission was to kill the person he was on a mission to protect. He only did what you would have Gaara-chan, he was protecting his people from a potential threat, me." She seemed slightly depressed by what she was saying, but her eyes stayed on Gaara as if hoping to quench his rage.

Gaara sighed his anger still causing him to be tense.

"All right lets go see Hokage-sama."

**direct, abrupt; sometimes hostile; (when used to address a wife or female partner): equivalent to "dear" a way to say 'you') This isjust Gaara's way of addressing

Miko ever since the 'interrogation' basically this shows how Miko has become one of his precious people.

All right for the poll results it appears it will be ItachixOC. I'll redo the poll after this so you can vote again any time you like!
