Can something be forgiven if the incident is forgotten? Can there be love if it no longer exists in the mind? Can a mistake be atoned when the forgiver cannot remember?

Let the Music Guide You Home: Chapter 4: Dance Time Pt.1

Ekira sat on her bed, it was late the sun had set hours ago allowing the moon to shine it lights on the sleeping creatures outside. She got up and began removing her clothing readying herself for bed. Tirelessly she put on her sleeping cloths, a long, silk green gown that showed off the many curves of her figure. As she sat back on the bed she couldn't believe how much time had gone back, so many things had changed in the house. People came and went, many representatives popped around the house trying to get her decision.

He laughed to herself in a few short days she would have to make a decision that would affect the land, the people, as well as herself. She lay back on the bed, emerald green eyes staring up at the ceiling trying to clear her mind. She soon turned over to her side turning the lamp on her dresser leaving the room dark illuminated with nothing but the rays of the sun.

As she got under the covers letting her body settle into the warmth of the blankets she felt an arm snake around her mid-section pulling her closure to their body. She let herself snuggle into the body behind her enjoying the warmth. With a gentle sigh she began to drift off to sleep, thinking about all the changes that have happened over five years.

The next morning was rarely usual day; Wakana was happily listening to her music while she practiced her fighting moves outside. Inside Ekira was going over paperwork of various patients she had seen and was becoming increasingly tired and frustrated. As she read over the next stack of documents a knock on the door caught her attention. "Come in", she said almost sounding bored and as the door opened revealing the individual, Ekira demeanor seemed to lift. "Oh it's you" she motioned for the individual to enter her office. "Sorry to disturb you but I have the test results you wanted for you last patient", he said handing her some papers he had. "Hm, thank you", she said watching as the man nodded his head about to leave out the office.

"Before you go could you do me a favor", she said still looking over the papers, "Yes Ms. Ekira", he said looking at the green haired doctor as she began shaking her head, "I told you its Ekira baka, you don't have to be so formal", she said watching as the other smirked. "I know", he said.

"As I was saying, I need you to do a favor for me. Can you and Wakana go deliver some herbs into town", she said waiting for the other to answer. "Of course, but doesn't Miss Wakana usually do that?" he said looking as Ekira looked away from her work. "Yes but I think it would be beneficial for you and her. Plus with new there there's a lower chance of her getting into trouble".

"I understand", he said watching as the other left her desk making her way toward the older male. The man was a lot taller than Ekira herself. The taller man had dark, tan skin and wore a head set that hid his face, hair, and mouth from view. He wore a long white coat like Ekira did; his green and red eyes stared down at the petit women, who came close to the other male who took the meaning to wrap his arms around her upper mid-section letting her bury her head into his chest. Looking up she watched as the man pulled down his head gear revealing tan with lines of black. She touched the stiches that wrapped into his cheeks giving him an almost cheshire grin. This appearance made people afraid of him, which is the reason he chose to wear the head gear, but to her there what made him different and she had to admit they were sexy.

Within the heat of her thoughts she placed a warm kiss on tan lips, as the older male took the initiative and brought the other closer deepening the kiss further. "Eeww, mom! At least close the door when you do that", Wakana said walking in on her mom and her lovers make out session. "Grow up Wakana", she said detaching herself from her lover. "Anyway, Wakana I need you go to town and make some deliveries", she said watching as her daughter smiled and gave a thumbs up, "Okay Ekira-baachan", she said earning her a slap on the back on the head, "What the heck, that's child abuse", she said rubbing the back of her head. "No I used paper not rock", she said holding up her hand. "Still", she pouted.

"You will also be going with Eki", she said pointing to the taller male, "Cool! I get to hang out with Eki-senpia, sweet!" she said jumping up and latching onto to Eki's arm pulling him towards the door. "We'll be back later, mom", she called before closing the door. Sitting back in her chair she couldn't help but give a small smirk. 'Yes things have changed so much', she thought before going back to her work.

Wakana was happily walking down the road with Eki walking close to her. Wakana kept peering back towards the large male. "Is there something wrong Miss Wakana", he said looking down her, "I thought I told you to drop the Miss, makes me sound old", she said a pout forming on her face. "You sound just like your mother", this statement almost made her trip, but quickly composing herself she stared back at the older male. "Anyway don't you get hot wearing that thing on your head?" she said watching as Eki cocked in eyebrow. "Not really I've grown used to wearing it" he said watching as the girl made a look that gave him the impression she was thinking.

They continued walking down the road, stopping to wave at a few passer-byes. "So Eki-senpia, you like my mom right?" she said stopping to look at Eki, "Yes I do like her Wakana, a lot", he said with a lot of confidence in his voice.

"Eki and Ekira sitting in a tree, K.I.S.S.I.N.G", she said making kissing noises causing Eki to sweat drop and shake his head. "But for reals, I think you two make a great couple", she said giving Eki two thumbs up. Even though his face was hidden she could tell he was smiling. "Come on lets go make these deliveries or you mother will kill us both", he said watching as Wakana gave him a goofy grin, before they made their way to town.

In both countries capital cities, the leader, Tsunade of the Fire Nation and Pein of Akatsuki, were preparing to make their trip into Nyūtoraru, also known as the land hidden in Secret. The leader and head medical official Ekira had allowed them to enter with their vow that there would be no conflict from either side. There was also the stipulation that only a certain number of people from each country would be allowed to enter, the maximum being 15 per country, excluding the leaders, this being very gracious sense she was only going to allow a maximum of 5.

Once the group from each country was chosen and a list of names sent to the Ekira, all that was left to do was wait.

Time seemed to fly-by in the neutral country, Ekira along with some of the countries people were preparing for the visitors coming from the neighboring lands. Ekira was in her office getting her paperwork done, she had sent Eki and her daughter on some deliveries and would be awhile before they got back, but Ekira had a lot of faith in Eki and knew he could handle himself should trouble arise.

Suddenly there was a knock on her door and an old lady entered her office, "My Lady, they're here", she said bowing her head. Ekira gave a nod, before setting her papers aside and prepared to talk to with the two leaders. As she walked down the hall to the meeting room she was met by two of the house guards, "Lady Ekira! Lady Ekira!" they called looking as though they had seen a ghost.

"What is it", she asked watching as the two stopped to take a breath. "My Lady the soldier's from the villages are trying to start a fight", one of the soldier's told Ekira whose face seemed to frown at the situation. "Where are they?"

Outside the residence in the garden area what the guards spoke was true, as guessed the people from Pein's group had gotten into an altercation with the soldiers from Tsunade's group. As the groups prepared to draw their weapons the double screen doors burst open making everyone freeze in their tracks. Shining green eyes scanned the area watching as each person watched her. Without a word Ekira stepped in the yard and stood between each section. Ekira took a deep breath before looking at each side, "If you want to fight take it into the forest I don't want blood in my yard." She said impassively as the others seemed to sweat drop at her statement and put their weapons away.

"If that's all then we can began this meeting" she walked back to the front of the doors, "The leaders will follow me inside. You can bring two soldiers with you, but no more, everyone else can wait outside. If anyone tries anything funny that's disrupts my home." She passed scanning over the crowd of people "I'll personally see that this will be the last visit you 'ever' make to this land." With that she went back into the house leaving the rest of the group.

Pein and Tsunade peered at each other from their groups as the others tried to decide who would go with their leaders.

"Hmmm….who do you think should go with Lady Tsunade?" asked on the Leaf soldiers, she had short shoulder length pink hair and green eyes. "Well we know she'll be taking Kakashi-sensei" said another leaf ninja; she had blond hair held in a high ponytail and a long bang covering her left side and blue eyes.

"So whose going with Pein", asked Deidara as he sat next to Sasori who was looking around at the rest of the group. "Well we already know he's taking Kanon, he'll probably end up taking Itachi-kun" one of the member snickered. He had unnatural blue skin and what appeared to be gills on the side of his neck; he had blue tinted hair that spiked up in the front giving it the look of a shark fin. As he smirked with a sharp, toothy grin he suddenly felt a harsh pull on his ear.

"What did I tell you about calling me that, Kisame", Itachi said twisting the others ear making him flail in pain. Itachi was a quite handsome male he had long black hair which was held back in a ponytail. His face was well crafted, having coal black eyes that held both power and pride he was quite an intimidating person. Itachi continued to twist on the blue male's ear making a few of their comrade's laugh at Kisames pain. Sasori just rolled his eyes and continued to scan the individuals from the other country.

Out in the village people had already begun gossiping about the individuals currently taking residence in the leader's home. Many of the villager's thought it was a bad idea bringing two feuding countries together. Other's thought the countries were just using the meeting as a ploy to take over the land. While others gossiped about the meeting, Eki and Wakana were making their rounds delivering medicine to the villager's.

"Here you go , I hope your husband feels better", Eki said giving the bag of medicine to the older women, "Thank you Eki-san and please tell Lady Ekira thank you for all she's done" the older lady said giving him a polite smile before re-entering her house.

"Okay that's one down and about 20 more people to go, lets hit it!", Wakana said jumping from a nearby tree branch. "You're in a hurry Wakana", Eki said making his way toward the hyperactive girl. "Yeah I wanna get these deliveries down so I can have some fun" she said pulling on Eki as they walked, "Since my mom gonna be talking to the leaders from the other country that means I have some free time" she said still pulling on Eki's arm who just smiled under his mask at the young girl.

"So Eki-san, what do you think their talking about", she asked watching as Eki made a confused face at her, "You know at the meeting what do you think they want?" she said watching Eki sighed abit. "Whatever it is I'm sure your mother is handling it" he said letting the young girl keep pulling her. "Any ways after the deliveries are done what do you want to do? I was thinking we could go to the ramen shop or maybe get some dango! Let's go to the dojo I wanna see who I can fight!" she said throwing a few punches into the air and as she rambled on Eki smiled at the young girl optimism and spirit, she was truly like her mother, even if she wouldn't admit it.

Suddenly Wakana stopped in her tracks making Eki worry, "Wakana, is something wrong?" he asked watching as the girl nodded. "Yeah something is defiantly wrong" she said sternly. "What's wrong?", with a sigh Wakana looked toward the sky a concerned look on her face before turning toward Eki. "Eki…we have forgotten something very important" she said watching Eki's shocked face, "What…what have we forgotten that sounds so important?"

Wakana took another deep breath she turned toward the sky, "We've forgotten the music!" she screamed to the sky in an overly dramatic voice. Eki fell sweat dropped, 'of course', the only thing she would almost give herself or anyone else for that matter a heart attack for is her music. "This is no joke Eki-san I gone almost a whole day without my music" she said reaching inside her sleeve pocket pulling out a portable music player, making Eki sweat drop again.

Looking through the music player she went through the different songs trying to figure out what she wanted to listen to. "Let's what do I want to today. Let's see hip-hop, pop, rock, country, metal,…no…no" she continued to go through the different music as they walked along, until finally she found the perfect songs.

"I found it the perfect song!", she said pressing the button letting the musical notes feel the air, the sound of drums and guitar beats started echoing throughout the forest and parts of the time.

Whether it's rock and roll or old soul (It don't matter)
Disco, Calypso (It don't matter)
Suit and tie or tie-dye (It don't matter)
Snakeskins or Timberlands (It don't matter)
Tight fade or long braid (It don't matter)
Red head or brunette (It don't matter)
Breakdance, slamdance (It don't matter)
Do the jerk until it hurts
I'm tellin' you

Ain't nothin' wrong with that (I'm tellin' you)
Ain't nothin' wrong with that (I'm tellin' you)
Ain't nothin' wrong with that

Wakana started singing and dancing to the lyrics, while Eki walked behind her as she sang along with the music. Eki noticed that a few of the people seemed to like the music and were, what appeared to be, dancing to it.

East or west coast (It don't matter)
Down south or up north (It don't matter)
Hollywood or in the hood (It don't matter)
Either way it's all good (It don't matter)

Wakana kept dancing and doing flips and spins down the road still singing to the beat and words of the song.

Block party, frat party, (It don't matter)
Backyard or boulevard (It don't matter)
Red, yellow, black or white (It don't matter)
We all gettin' down tonight
I'm tellin' you

Ain't nothin' wrong with that (I'm tellin' you)
Ain't nothin' wrong with that (I'm tellin' you)
Ain't nothin' wrong with that
Ain't nothin' wrong with that.

Shake it Shake it Shake it

Wakana turned the dial up louder making the sound vibrate to the point where the people back at her house could hear it. The strange sound, to them, made the individuals look around to see where it came from.

"What the hell is that" Hidan said looking up, "I think its music Hi-chan", Deidara said, as he seemed to tap his feet to the beat. "What the hell kind of music is that?" Kisame said as he tried to cover his ears.

I don't know but I've been told
When the music gets down in your soul
It makes you want to lose control
And there

Ain't nothin' wrong with that
Ain't nothin' wrong with that (I'm tellin' you)
Ain't nothin' wrong with that (I'm tellin' you)
Ain't nothin' wrong with that
Ain't nothin' wrong with that.
(Hollywood or in the hood. I'm tellin' you)
Ain't nothin' wrong with that.
(Suit and tie or tie-dye. I'm tellin' you)
Ain't nothin' wrong with that

It don't matter
It don't matter
(Let it go)
It don't matter
(Let it go)
It don't matter
(Let it go)
It don't matter
(Let it go)

As the bits of the tune seemed to stop, Kisame removed his ears "Thank Kami, it's over", he said with a tired sigh. All of a sudden a new sound boomed through causing most of the ninja and soldier's to become abit taken back. As the sound played most the ninja started looking around, until something strange started happening.

As the beat continued to play most of the soldiers took out their weapons

PARTY ROCK
YEA
Whoa!
LET'S GO!

At that the soldiers dropped their weapons and went into an almost puppet like state.

"What the fuck is going on here!" Hidan yelled trying to move his body. "I don't know, but I don't like it", Sasori said.

Party rock is in the house tonight
Everybody just have a good time
And we gonna make you lose your mind
Everybody just have a good time

"Hey Eki, I want to show you my new attack", she said making a hand sign, "I call it, 'Wakana's Super Dance Party Revolution', it makes the target do what I do and what I do best is party". Suddenly the soldiers began moving their bodies in a rythmatic pattern, or in other words dancing. Wakana brought her hand above her hands and began clapping as she stumped her feet and shook her hips to the beat.

Party rock is in the house tonight
Everybody just have a good time
And we gonna make you lose your mind
Everybody just have a good time

We just wanna see you!

Shake that!

With that Wakana struck a pose and began her dance attack, (A/N; Basically imagine everything she does the other ninja's do. On Pein's side- Kanon, Itachi, Kisame, Sasori, Deidara, Hidan, Tobi, and Zetsu. On Tsunade's side- Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, Ino, Choji, Shikamaru, Kiba, Hinata, Shino, Ten-Ten, Neji, and Rock Lee. )

As the music bumped and ran, Wakana moved her body to the beat, moving every which way she could combining her fighting moves with her dance moves. Back in the yard many of the soldiers were not having fun, "When I get my hands on the asshole that's doing this I going to fucking kill them" Hidan screamed as he did a full spin followed by a kick into a back flip.

"Calm down Hidan-san, Tobi thinks this is fun", the orange masked wearer sang as he thrust his arms back and forth as he moved his feet back and forth. Sasori glared at him while he brought his arms up swinging his hips back and forth, "Something funny brat" he glared at Deidara who was laughing at Sasori, "Nothing Danna, you just look so cute", he said between giggles making the other growl.

Right hand out, left hand swing, kick right and left the same thing. Right leg up, left leg back, turn around and swing your hips. "This is so embarrassing, guys don not swing their hips" Kiba said as he forcibly danced along with the music as Akumaru, his dog and friend, danced on his head. Jump up, hit the ground, turned around, right arm out and swing to the hip, left arm reach and grab the sky, swing left, slide to the right. Left foot kick, right foot kick, left foot kick, right foot kick, "This is a most youthful exercise, Neji I did not know you had such graceful movement, Lee said watching as Neji glared at him as he moved with the beat, "Shut the hell up Lee".

Party rock is in the house tonight
Everybody just have a good time
And we gonna make you lose your mind
Everybody just have a good time

Party rock is in the house tonight
Everybody just have a good time
And we gonna make you lose your mind
Everybody just have a good time

Wakana brought her hands to her hips ticking them back and forth with the bass, kicked her leg up before doing a full spin until her hand s hit the ground and did multiple hand spins on the ground. "Ahhh….I'm getting dizzy", Tobi said still spinning about.

"When will this end?" Ino said watching as the world speed around, before she stopped and flipped back right-side up. "I didn't know I could spin like that" Naruto said as he continued to move to the beat.

One more shot for us
Another round
Please fill up my cup
Don't mess around
We just wanna see
You shake it now
Now you wanna be
You're naked now

Get up get down put your hands up to the sound [3x]
Put your hands up to the sound [2x]
Get up [9x]
Put your hands up to the sound, to the sound
Put your hands up!
Put your hands up!
Put your hands up!
Put your hands up!

Now it's time for the finally, Wakana threw her fist up in the air, before sliding her feet left and right multiple times, her moves began to pick up speed. He craned and moved her body in ways most people couldn't. Again she jumped and kicked throwing her hands up moving her body any which way she could as fast as she thought. Back in the yard the soldiers began dancing in sync their bodies swaying and moving every way, in positions they couldn't even think.

Party rock is in the house tonight (Put your hands up!)
Everybody just have a good time (Put your hands up!)
And we gonna make you lose your mind (Put your hands up!)
Everybody just have a good good good time

Oh! Oh! Put your hands up
Oh! Oh! Time to fill it now!
Oh!Oh!Put your hands up
Oh!Oh!Put your hands up

Shake that!
Every day I'm shuffling

Put your Put your
Put your Put your (Yeah Yeah)
Put your Put your (Whoa!)
Put your Put your
Put your hands up
Your hands up
Push your hands up

Every day I'm shuffling

At the end of the song after one more spin Wakana threw her fist into the air officially ending her attack. Once it ended the soldier's fell back in both exasperation and agony. "Danna ,my body hurts" Deidara wined unable to get up. Sasori fell and was now on his back, completely out of breath. Tobi was lying unconscious on his face, as Itachi and Kisame somehow fell back to back.

"My muscles, I can't feel my legs", Kiba whined as Akumaru gave a low whine. "Legs, I can't feel the rest of my body", Naruto said about to faint. Sasuke was lying on his back, his breath was hard and forced. Ino and Sakura had passed out along with Hinata. Neji was trying to sit up, but failed. "Oh what a youthful exercise, let's do it again" Lee said with a lot of energy. "No!Shut the Hell up LEE!" the others said as Tamari used the last of his strength to throw a rock at him hitting him in the head knocking him out cold.

"Nice shoot", Shikamaru said as he somehow had fallen on a now sleeping Choji.

"So Eki what did you think!" Wakana asked happily, "Well it was a nice dance, but I don't think it would be that affective in battle", he said making the other pout. "Anyway, I'll ignore your lack of music appreciation, by the way what kinds of music do you like?" she asked.

"I don't really listen to music" he said as he continued to watch Wakana as she showed off her new attacks. "Okay, but the music not done over yet, time for attack number 2! Yee Hawwww", she said changing her outfit, she was now wearing a pair of blue jeans, a silver belt buckle with a bull on it, a purple button up top with cuffs and a pair of light brown cowboy boots. To tie the look together she wore a brown western cowboy hit. "Yee Hawwww! It's time for 'Wakana's Foot Stomping Hip Swinging Hoedown!", she exclaimed tipping her hat.

Suddenly a upbeat sound surfaced causing the soldiers to be forced up, "Oh no, not again!" Kiba whined as his seemed to move on his own along with everyone else. They moved and seem to partner up with a random person causing glares to surface when they were partnered with someone from the other side.

Hey, I've been driving all over the town
On my cellphone wearin' it out
And I've finally tracked you down

As the music started playing the individuals put their hands on their hips started moving their legs, one foot stomping on the ground in sync.

Hey, everybody says you're the man
The final piece to my master plan
You got my world in the palm of your hand

They began sliding back and forth with the sound of the slow guitar and the western tune. "Hey this isn't this so bad", Ten-Ten said. "Yeah it's not as bad as the other song", Sakura agreed. And the others began to nod, but soon they would figure out this was not a slow dance.

Well I know that you got it
Come on and just sell it
Got the cash up in my pocket
You know I gotta get it

Hey mister won't you sell me a fake ID
There's a band in the bar that I'm dying to see
I got my money and you got what I need
Hey mister won't you sell me a fake ID

Suddenly the music starting picking up making the soldier's move their feet much faster, "I think you spoke to soon", Kiba wailed as his feet tapped along with the rhythm.

Wakana tapped her feet as she moved her hands with the sounds. She spun around and brought her feet down hard; tapping her boots on the ground, letting whoops and yells as she moved about her movements becoming faster.

Heel toe, stalked to left , twist to the right, jump slide, tap, tap, right, left, right, left, "I think my legs are about to fall off", Choji said as he moved back so Ino and Sakura passed him switching sides as he moved back into place. Lift, stomp, lift stomp, lift stomp.

Hey, don't even think about tellin' me no
It's only twenty minutes till the show
Hey mister turn it over let's go

No, I ain't gonna need a receipt
Just make sure that it looks like me
So the bouncer don't call the police

And don't tell my daddy
Stole the keys to his caddy
Courtesy of
Don't dilly dally
I gotta get the hell out of this alley

Wakana slide and clogged her boats up and down the dirt road, her feet never seem to miss a beat. As she slide her boots back and forth, before doing a high jump and back into her tapping. She swung her hips and clapped with the music.

Hey mister won't you sell me a fake ID
There's a band in the bar that I'm dying to see
I got my money and you got what I need
Hey mister won't you sell me a fake ID

Here's my money, now get out of my way
Gonna push my luck right up to the stage

Hey mister won't you sell me a fake ID
There's a band in the bar that I'm dying to see
I got my money and you got what I need
Hey mister, hey mister

Hey mister won't you sell me a fake ID
There's a band in the bar that I'm dying to see
I got my money and you got what I need
Hey mister won't you sell me a fake ID

Hey mister won't you sell me a fake ID
There's a band in the bar that I'm dying to see
I got my money and you got what I need
Hey mister won't you sell me a fake ID
Hey mister, hey mister

After the music was done, they all feel back unconscious. Ekira walked back out with the leaders and saw the rest of the soldiers knocked out on the ground. Shaking her head she ordered some of the help to carry the individuals to their assigned rooms. It seemed as though they would have to finish their meeting tomorrow.

….to be continued…
