A/N even though this is a sad chapter I felt the need to dedicate a chapter to Kage, who's a loyal reader(she doesn't review because she tells me on yahoo how much she loves the story ;)) and an amazing friend. She sent me an awesome box of manga, anime, and clothes for geni! A santa dress! It was so cute! Thank you so much, Kage! Love ya!

Green eyes opened, not expecting the flash of steel or the gloved hand holding them down. Never having expected to see cold eyes staring down at them with such an extreme hatred, what had they ever done?

"Such disgusting hair." The person said, grabbing a fist full of black locks, yanking some right out and letting it fall to the ground.

What was done to deserve this?

A slow gurgling sound was made as they tried to gasp for breath, but were drowning in their own blood. They tried to flip themselves over, maybe that would help, maybe if they could hang on, just a little, they would be saved.

"What would he see in you?" They asked, staring down into the green eyes of their victim, who could only gurgle in response.

A foot replaced the hand, keeping them on their back. Another flash and it was over.

Authorities were there a mere six minutes later, the body still warm to the touch.

Neji and Kagome had been having a nice off day, until they saw them take the body away. The murderer was definitely in Konoha, and this time the victim had been an Inuzuka.

Kagome knew her clan would not take this lying down. They were already in an uproar, wanting to instate curfew so that they could hunt down the killer.

However, with the amount of nin in and out at all times of the day and the fact the killer seemed to kill at completely random times, the Hokage could do nothing of the sort.

Again, it was a woman with black hair and green eyes. Sometimes the victims had lighter brown eyes, blue eyes, or hazel eyes, but every time the victim had black hair.

And it was making Neji nervous.

Neji had found that some of the woman were konoha nin, none of them outstanding, but it was enough for him to worry. He new Kagome could most likely take out the killer if they attacked her, but it didn't do anything for his worrying heart.

He held her hand tighter in his as Gin mewled beside them, looking towards the dead girl's partner.

A black dog that stood there off to the side, looking very much like a heart broken stray as it watched her body being carried away.

A howl rose, and was followed by many of the inuzuka ninken, even Gin raised her head and gave a haunting yowl, long outlasting all but the black dog.
