After a few hours, Sooner woke up, he moaned in pain. Konan set the book down and looked at him. "Hey there." Konan smiled sweetly.

Sooner looked up at her slightly confused, then he remembered everything. He winced. Konan held a blood pill in front of his mouth. "Take it please."

Sooner shook his head. "I'm fine."

Konan's blue eyebrow raised. "No your not, just take one."

Sooner opened his mouth and she set in on the tip of his tongue, , he closed his mouth and chewed, then swallowed. "Have Itachi and Kisame reported yet?"

"No, they're waiting for you."

"Ok." Sooner closed his eyes.

"Do you need anything?"

"Nope."

"Are you hungry?"

"No."

Her eyebrow rose again. "When did you last eat?"

Sooner hesitated then shrugged. "I'm not hungry, relax."

"Ok, well now that you're awake you should get Itachi and Kisame and go report." She said sitting him up.

"That's just mean, I was almost asleep."

"You can sleep after you report."

"Fine." He walked into his bathroom and came out with a container of pain killers in his unwounded hand. Konan watched him struggle to get the container open. 'He may not whine, but you can see the irritated look in his crimson eyes.' After a minute he dropped the container on the counter and left it. Both of his long sleeves on his shirt were covered in blood.

"You should change into a clean shirt."

"I can't even open a pill bottle, how do you expect me to change."

"I can help you."

Sooner blushed and went into his room and came out holding a long sleeved button up shirt.

Konan helped him change.

Sooner got Itachi and Kisame, the three went to Pein's room to report.

"Where is she?" Pein asked.

"We didn't get her." Itachi said.

"I see that, why didn't you get her?" He snapped, glaring at the three members in front of him.

Sooner sighed. "I called it off."

Pein glared at only him now. "And what gave you the right to do that?"

"It was a game of keep away, they had her, we had her and so forth. We were getting tired so I called it off."

Pein grabbed Sooner's collar and yanked him forward. "When I give you a mission you complete it, I don't care if you loose a beep limb you complete the mission." He slammed Sooner against a wall and held him there. "What's your excuse Itachi?" The fierce leader snapped.

"Sooner-san was injured and all of our chakra was low, it was better to draw back and rest before anything drastic happened." Itachi calmly said.

"What's yours Kisame?"

"I was following orders, but we were all getting tired."

Pein closed his eyes and shook his head. "You three are pathetic." His arm pushed on Sooner's throat

Sooner winced. "Sh-she doesn't." He tried taking a breath. "the base…location."

Pein moved his arm to his collar bone. "What?"

Sooner took a deep breath and coughed. "She doesn't remember the location of the base."

"And how's that?"

"I followed her when she first escaped and erased her memory. I couldn't capture her because some Sand Ninja attacked me to protect her."

Pein sighed and let Sooner drop, he handed a piece of paper to each of them. "There's your next mission, Sooner you are by yourself again." He gave them the sign to leave.

Five hours later the Hatake's awoke. Kakashi woke up first and walked down the hall skillfully dodging the objects on the floor, he stretched, his hands almost reaching the ceiling.

As he walked into the living room and looked at his daughters, Kyten rolled off the couch and landed on all of her things. "Oww."

Kakashi chuckled. "What do you want for breakfast?"

"Leftovers."

"Egg rolls?"

"Sure."

"Can you wake Akari please?"

"Um…you should do that."

"Why?"

"Last time, she hit me."

"Ook." Kakashi walked over and tapped Akari's shoulder. Akari jumped up still half asleep and flipped Kakashi. Kyten burst out laughing.

Kakashi groaned and opened his eyes. Akari woke up completely and looked at her father that was laying on his back on the floor. "Whoops."

Kakashi got up and looked at her.

"Sorry."

"It's ok, now I know how not to wake you."

"Heh yeah."

"What do you want for breakfast."

Akari picked her things up. "Rice."

"Ok." He walked into the kitchen and got his daughters food. "When do you want to move in completely?"

"Uh maybe later today." Kyten pulled her mask down and took a bite of egg rolls.

Kyten's P.O.V.

After I finished eating my breakfast, egg rolls and some of Akari's rice, I waved to dad.

He walked over and gave me a big hug. "Be safe…" He whispered in my ear.

"Yeah." I whispered back and walked out the front door. Akari still sat there eating.

'Now for an assignment.' I thought to myself. I jogged to the Hokage tower and opened the door. But for some reason it wouldn't come. So I walked down one of the halls, I saw blue hair around the corner, it was Yuri. And if looked like she was daydreaming about something, so I tapped her on the shoulder, but before I could say anything she jumped me. We fell to the floor with a crash. 'Oww..'

"Kyteeeen!!" She squealed, hugging my neck.

"Hi Yuri." I said.

She was squeezing my neck so hard I could hardly breath. She looked down from her position on top of me. "Where ya going?" She chimed.

'can't…breath well.' "Uh going to get my assignments for the day."

She finally let me up. "Can I come?"

"Sure." We started walking toward the stairs.

When we found our way to the office door, a tall man with scars across his face walked up to us. "Uncle IBKIIII!" Yuri screamed. She hung onto his neck, but he didn't flinch.

He looked down at her and said sternly. "Yuri, you were supposed to be at the interrogation center a hour ago."

Yuri looked pitifully up at him. "Sawey." She said.

Ibiki set her down and turned to walk back, he didn't say anything to me. Yuri followed, waving at me as she went. I waved back and entered the office.

Akari was already there. I walked up next to her. "How the heck did you get here so fast ?!?" I asked.

"I wasn't accosted by Yuri…" She patted my shoulder. "And I took the high way."

I scowled at her. "You mean the roof tops, don't you?"

"Yep!" Akari smiled. "And you know the saying, 'the early bird gets the worm'…"

"Except I got the mission." She laughed.

I frowned and turned to the Third Hokage. "So got any missions for me?" I asked, rubbing the back of my neck.

The Third chuckled. "No." He said. "But you get to train team 10. Since Asuma is…" He cleared his throat. "Out with Kurenai Yuhi today." He handed me the paper with the teams profiles on it. I walked out of the room throwing one last glare at Akari.

'Darn…wait, Team 10? Have I met them before?' I jumped onto a roof top, Akari gave me the idea. 'I've heard of the Ino-Shika-Cho, and these kids look a lot like them.' Before I knew it I was in the training grounds.

Team 10 was already there and assembled. The tallest kid, a lazy looking brunette guy, gave me a tired look. "Who are you?" He asked.

'Oh great.' "Uh my name is Kyten Hatake, and I'm going to be your sensei today."

The blond girl put her hand on her him. "Except you look like you just got out of the academy."

'Oooohhh, what a…I think I've heard that line before.' I sat down on a log. "Well how about we start with your names, ages, and ninja ranks, you go first blondie." I said smirking.

The girl stiffened and rattled off her information. "My name is Ino Yamanaka, I'm twelve years old and I'm a Genin."

A chubby boy went next. 'Oh those cheeks are so cuute! I squealed on the inside.

"My name is Chouji Akamitchi, I'm twelve years old and a Genin too."

When I looked at the brunette lazo, he closed his eyes. "I'm Shikamaru Nara, almost thirteen and I'm a Genin." He opened one of his eyes. "Your turn." He yawned.

"I'm Kyten Hatake, I'm sixteen and half years old and I'm a part time ANBU captain and a full time Jonin." All three Genin looked shocked. "What?" I asked getting up.

Ino pointed. "You're an…ANBU…wow."

"Yeah…now can we get on with the training?" I asked. The team stood up straighter. "Come at me with your special techniques." I said, getting into a fighting stance. Shikamaru made a hand sign and I saw his shadow grow toward mine. 'That's it?' I jumped out of the way. When I turned around, Chouji tried to punch me, when I dodged I saw that it was just a distraction. Ino was standing behind him making a hand sign. I recognized it slightly. 'Uh oh…I can't dodge.' In desperation, I grabbed Chouji(who was still in mid air) and threw him in front of me. The jutsu hit him and he fell to the side. Ino's body slumped, but Chouji got up and looked at his body.

"WHAT THE HECK?" He screamed. "How did I get in here? EWWWW!" I knew that Ino was inside Chouji's body so I laughed Shikamaru looked kinda surprised and stopped making his shadow follow me.

"Aren't you a little advanced to be training with us ?" He asked, getting up from his crouch.

Ino must have released Chouji, because she was up and running in her own body now. I looked at my watch, 'Oh, time for lunch." Everyone can take an hour break. I'll meet you back here after that." I walked into town.

When I had come to a small tea shop. A tall brown-haired man was standing at the menu. I thought he looked familiar, so I went to talk to him " Hey there" I said. When turned to me, I saw he had a brown scar-looking stripe on his nose. 'He's kinda cute!' I thought. He smiled "Yes?"

Suddenly I couldn't think of anything to say. Uh….I...uh…" I'm so embarrassed!

" Are you on your lunch break?' He asked cutting me some slack.

"Uh, …Yeah."

" Well, I'll treat you to some Raman then" And we walked over to a table and sat down.

Third Person

Iruka smiled. "I'll go order." This girl looked familiar to him. 'It might be her eyes.' He thought and walked to the desk. Kyten sat at the table, shocked. This was all going way too fast for her!

Kyten held her head in her hands. 'He leaves me totally speechless!'She thought. 'And I don't know why!!'Miserable, the poor Kyten was just plain miserable.

When Iruka came back, he was balancing two ramen bowls and tea cups on his arm. He sat down, unloaded, and handed Kyten chopsticks. Kyten blushed and took them. Iruka started eating his ramen enthusiastically. "So," He paused to swallow, "Did you just move here?" He asked, scooping up more food on his chopsticks.

Kyten almost didn't hear him, because she was concentrating on her embarrassment. She blushed and broke her hashi apart. She started to pull down her mask to eat. "Yeah. I used to live in the Roc-"

Iruka suddenly shot up from his chair, "Are you sure we haven't met before?" He asked loudly, leaning toward her. In response to being startled, Kyten leaned back and fell off the chair. Iruka hurried around the table to help her up. He saw she had spilled her ramen all over the front of her red shirt. He knelt, "I'm so sorry, are you alright?" Poor Kyten didn't say a word. She got up and darted out, pulling her mask up to stop the oncoming tears.

Iruka still knelt on the shop floor, watching the girl go.

Akari's P.O.V.

I finished half my rice and let Kyten eat the rest. Kyten got ready to go and dad gave her a hug, he whispered something in her ear. It's nice to be home with him, he doesn't wear his mask in the house with us here and neither does Kyten. Kyten left.

Dad looked at me and smiled. "Are you doing anything today?"

"Yep…" I got up. "I'm gonna go on a mission."

"Ok."

I grabbed my weapons.

"When did you take my mask and sword?"

I hesitated. "Don't remember, I've had them for a long time though."

"Oh…well you can keep them." Dad hugged me. "Take care baby."

My eyes widened slightly, then they closed. "I will." He let go of me, I smiled and left.

I raced quickly on the roof tops. When I reached the Hokage tower I saw Kyten get glomped by Yuri, I smiled and quickly ran up the wall using my chakra to speed up. I jumped through the open window and landed in front of the Hokage's desk.

He looked up at me. "Good morning Akari." I nodded. "Would you like a mission?"

"Yes please."

He handed me a piece of paper. "You and Kyten are going to split missions."

"Um ok."

Kyten entered and gaped at me.

After Kyten spoke to me for a while I left. I have to get two people to join me on the mission and they've already been chosen for me, Izumo Kamizuki and Kotetsu Hagane.

"Sounds good to me." I said to myself.

I retrieved my comrades ad we gathered at the gate.

"Is everyone ready?" I asked.

"You bet, cutie." Kotetsu flirted, a sly smirk formed on his face.

"Call me that again and I will make it to where you are no longer able to talk." I threatened glaring.

"Cut my tongue out?"

"No, rip your voice box out." I said blankly.

His smirk quickly disappeared. Izumo smiled. "I'll have to keep that threat in mind."

"Ok."

We left to the spot the target was said to be going to.

Third Person

The three Leaf ninja stopped and waited, Akari walked up to the cliff, it wasn't exactly a cliff but more of an extremely deep drench there were large spikes that ran down each side.

"Doesn't look like any one could climb back up." Akari stated.

Izumo looked down. "No one would be alive to try."

"My guess there are spikes on the bottom as well."

"Probably, I'd rather not find out though." He walked away from the large gap.

Akari suddenly pulled her sword out. "We've got company, and he has a lot of chakra."

Izumo and Kotetsu got prepared to fight.

Two figures skidded to a stop, the taller figure attacked the other.

'Kisame.' Akari thought putting a name to the taller blue figure. Kisame was fighting their target, and Itachi was no where to be found.

"Do we attack?" Kotetsu asked.

"No wait until I give the signal." Akari stated moving away from the trench.

More men appeared and began fighting Kisame to protect their boss.

"Do not attack the Akatsuki member, get the target alive." Akari said, beginning to run toward Kisame, sheathing her sword.

"I take it that's the signal." Izumo smiled running after her, Kotetsu followed.

Akari jumped over the people surrounding Kisame, she gently landed on top of Kisame's sword. "Need some help?"

Kisame looked up at her. "That'd be nice."

She jumped off the sword and did a back flip, she kicked one of the men in the chest causing him to fall back into his team members. She landed like a crouched wolf and pulled out some kunai, she chucked them at the other attackers.

Kisame went after his target. Izumo and Kotetsu were fighting on the outside of the many guardians of the target.

The biggest and strongest guard picked Akari up by one of her arms. Akari winced. "Oww." She groaned. She kicked at the guys stomach, but it was useless against the guys size.

The guy let go of her, as she dropped he tightly grabbed her throat, he jerked her back and then back toward him. "Hey boss, here's a toy for you." The large guard appeared next to a different man.

'Kisame's attacking the wrong guy!' Akari thought, she choked for air.

The boss smiled looking at Akari's headband. "Leaf Village." He waited for a response. "Set her down."

"Yes Hizachi-sama." The lug dropped her and left.

Akari panted grasping at the air now available to her, Hizachi kicked her in the side causing her to roll a few feet. "I hate the Leaf Village." He calmly said. "It's too quiet, too peaceful."

Akari looked around her, she was next to the trench. Her eyes widened. 'I need to move.'

Hizachi picked her up by the collar of her vest. "One less Leaf to clean up." He dropped her into the large trench.

Akari screamed as she fell. Izumo and Kisame instantly stopped their fights. Kisame instantly began running toward the trench, Izumo followed.

Akari had stopped screaming, it was pointless anyway, there's no way someone could save her. She pulled her sword out and stabbed it into the cliff was, avoiding the near by spikes, expecting to be able to hold on, but she lost her grip and fell, the sword sill stuck deep in the cliff wall. She looked up and saw both Izumo and Kisame looking for her. She pulled out a chain, swinging one end of it, she tossed it. The chain wrapped around the sword and stayed. Holding onto the other end, she came to a brute jerk when the chain was stretched to it's limit, she pulled a kunai out and chucked it up a couple inches away from the heads of Izumo and Kisame.

Izumo looked franticly around the pit. "Where is she?"

"Idiot." Kisame mumbled, looking straight at two glowing red dots, and seeing the kunai flying up, backed up a little pulling Izumo, the kunai flew above their heads then reached it's limit and began falling, Kisame reached out and caught it, handed it to the dumb founded Izumo. He pulled out a rope and dropped it down holding onto one end.

"You found her?"

"No I'm hoping to catch a fish, yes I found her!" Kisame snapped. He felt to sudden light weight of Akari's, he slowly started pulling her up.

"Need help?"

"No! Go help your other comrade."

Izumo nodded and left to help Kotetsu fight.

Akari slowly started rising, when she reached her sword she yanked it out causing her to swing.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" Kisame yelled down to her.

"SORRY."

He continued pulling her up, looking down for a second he noticed the rope was getting cut on the tip of one of the spikes. 'Crap!' He reached down and grabbed the rope as far down as he could. He yanked the rope up, he quickly began pulling her up watching the rope where the tear was, the tear grew.

Akari was almost in complete view when the rope broke. Acting quickly Akari jumped onto the side of one of the spikes instantly she began slipping, she jumped to one higher on the other side and continued this pattern till she reached the last spike on the opposite side of Kisame, she jumped to the other side. Kisame grabbed her arm and pulled her into him. He let of her when he knew she was safe.

Akari sat down as soon as he let go of her. "Thank you."

"Yeah." Kisame sighed watching as the target and his men left.

"Where's Itachi?"

"After the other target."

Izumo and Kotetsu ran over to Akari as quickly as they could. Kotetsu stared at Kisame watchfully.

"Are you ok?" Izumo asked checking her for wounds, he was crouched next to her.

"There are spikes at the bottom." Akari ginned looking at him.

He sighed and fell backwards onto his butt.

"Good-bye puppet." Kisame said giving a short wave.

"Thanks again Fishy." Akari waved.

Kisame left leaving Akari in the care of her teammates. Akari laid down and put her arms under her head.

"You ok?" Kotetsu asked sitting down.

She smiled. "Let's do that again!"

"You're in shock aren't you?" Izumo stared at her.

"Nope!"

"Great." He sighed. "Let's head back, the missions failed."

"Yeah."

The got Akari up and headed back.

Back in the village they reported and took Akari to the training grounds where Kakashi was training Team 7.

"You look pale Akari-sempai." Sakura stated sitting next to her.

"Hmm? Oh I fell off a cliff."

"Oh are you hurt?"

"No just a few scratches…" Akari laid back on the cold stone of the area around the memorial stone, she closed her crimson eyes.

Naruto started yelling at Sasuke, Sasuke made comments back and glared at him. Sakura rolled her eyes. "Not again."

Kakashi let them bicker for a few minutes, Naruto kept getting closer to Sasuke, irritated Akari walked up to them, yanked their forehead protectors of them and slammed their heads together.

Both of their hands went straight to their own heads. Sakura sat where she was, her eyes wide open. Naruto whined. "Why did you do that?"

"Your yelling was giving me a headache, now you have one so will you be quiet for once."

Kakashi smiled and chuckled. "Why don't we take the rest of the day off, everyone is a little stressed out." He glanced to Akari nervously.

Sasuke grunted and started walking away. Sakura jumped up. "Wait for me Sasuke-kun." She ran toward him.

Naruto sighed. "Bye Kakashi-sensei."

"Bye Naruto." Kakashi smiled.

The Jinuruki started walking away. "Hey Naruto, go find Iruka and irritate him for me." Akari called after him.

"Ok." Naruto grinned and ran off.

XXXXXXXxxxxxxxxx

Sorry for the long wait, hope you all liked it. So what did you guys think of the First Person point of view, should we use it more often.
