Chapter 15: Of evil Thunderstorms, sinister Hell-spots, New Memories and big Missions.

Part I: The Month Between, in Kumogakure: Human after all.

Killer B´s Pov:

It has been a long journey, but finally we have arrived, Home sweet home as they say.

"So this is Kumogakure 20 years in the future?" Yugito stated, as she looked around in cheer wonderment.

Thanks to the more or less peaceful times in the last years, has also our village changed massively, it became bigger and more technologized as in the times before.

"It sure is, for you it must feel like a whole different world!" I stated, as I looked at her.

No matter how long I looked at her, I still could not believe that she truly was here with me, that she truly lived again, and even if it was only for a year.

I was sure I would treasure this one year more than everything, however with the prospect of another war breaking lose, who could tell how much we can enjoy our time together.

"It does, I never thought to see this town so prosperous and relaxed, guess this is a premier…., by the way what happened to your rapping, when I remember clearly you were never speaking without it?!" Yugito asked me with a curious smile.

"There are times where even the best rapper around has to lay down the mic for some times, or in my case I just give it over to someone else, someone younger and better fit for it, also I had better things to do than thinking about new rhymes, the last years were a bit rough!" I stated and she looked at me in confusion.

"How so?!" She asked.

"Well after the first four years, after the war, I found this kid, a young boy, during a mission, the sole survivor of a massacre caused by the village´s leader, somehow he went amok and murderer everyone with some kind of Kinjutsu.

The kid had been hidden by his mother and so he survived.

The kid has been only 4 years old to that time and the true background of this story I never was able to find out.

Fact is, that I could not simply leave the kid there, so I took it back home.

During the travel the little kid came closer to my heart and by the time we arrived back in town, I was to a point that I didn´t wanted to be separated to him…, however I knew I could not simply raise a kid all alone, since I knew close to nothing about taking care of children.

So I decided to care for it, as long as it would take to find a family to take it in.

You can imagine how rough that has been, still I simply rembered the times as I helped you, as you became a Jinnchuriki and the times as I trained my protégées, Omoi and Karui.

The days passed and turned into weeks, weeks turned into months, however it never came someone who wanted to take him in, no matter where I asked, he was foreigner after all.

No one had enough courage and trust in them bones and brains, to simply take in a child with such a rough Background, but that never had any meaning to me, he was a child that needed guiding, care, kindness and protection, and I was willing to offer it to him for as long as I could, if no one else would.

So it came that, as he was 6 years old and already lived two years with me, I asked my brother for the permission to adopt him…, ever since he lives with me as my legitimate adoptive son!" I told Yugito.

"So he is basically my son too?" She asked me in wonderment.

"Yes and he´s the best I could ever asked for, expect of you and our daughter, when I finally get to know her!" I stated.

"Yes, we should first go towards you, I would love to get to know your son and afterwards we going to search for her, and after that we finally marry, how does that sound!" Yugito stated, as she snuggled up on me.

"Sure thing, sounds good to me, well then, off to Yurui and my house, by the way it lies now a bit out of the town, since my house which has been on the Shimagame vanished with her and so also most of my songs and belongings.

Luckily my most important treasure is here, right here with me, always!" I stated, as I took the medallion out of my chest-pocket.

"This old thing, you still have it…, after all this time!" Yugito stated, as she broke in tears at the sight of it.

"I never forgot the time I had with you, all these memories, all the smiles you showed me, and all the tears you shed for when I had to go on missions, these years were precious to me, there was no way I simply could forget you!" I stated, as I kissed her in public for everybody to see.

Not that I cared much about it anyways, I was human after all and I too was allowed to love someone.

"C´mon it´s not far anymore, just upon the hill over there!" I stated, as we continued our walk, before I suddenly was called out.

"B-sensei!" We heard it behind us.

I looked to see some of the kids from the town.

"Hey kids, how´s it going today?!" I asked them.

"The training under Yasura-Sensei is working out quite nicely, and how was it in Konohagakure?!" Tarui, one of Yurui´s teammates, asked.

"Awesome, I found someone I thought I had lost forever, someone precious to me and I finally could ask her the most important question!" I stated, as I petted Yugito´s hair, which she always had liked me to do…, of course she blushed deep red.

"I see…, hmm that's a nice engagement ring you have miss….?

Woooahh…, hold on…., wait a second, isn´t this…, yeah this is her…., no doubt about it, right?!" Tarui stated as she went pale.

"What do you mean Tarui?" Toroi, also one of Yurui´s teammates, stated.

"Are you nuts, how dare you to not know her, she´s the embodiment of perfection, elegance and strength…., the strongest Kunoichi there ever was, here in Kumogakure.

Yugito Nii, the Jinnchuriki of Matatabi; the Niibi!" Tarui stated with shining eyes, as she gave her the flower bouquet, which surely was meant for me, but this was nice as well.

Yugito was left baffled and blushing even more.

"Uuhm, thanks for the flower-bouquet, but how do you know Mata´s real name?!" she asked confused and still blushing, she was right as much as I know are only Naruto and those who once had been in the mind conference together, could know about this.

"Out of this book which was written by the Hokage, who is Jinnchuriki himself, there stands anything to know about Bijuus inside, also how they came to existence, it came out yesterday!" Tarui stated as she held up the book.

It was Naruto´s book, "Bijuu, more than just a weapon!"

"Anyways, it´s an honour to meet you and….., wait a second, but this is impossible…, I thought, and so it´s also said in the book, that she died during the Jinnchuriki-Massacre before the fourth Ninja World War…, and was used as an Edo-Tensei zombie to fight on the bad-guys side, so how come she´s alive, explain it to me, B-sensei?!" Tarui asked, with a thinking expression.

"Some things happened back then in Konoha, also has a young man in your age arrived, which is able to raise the dead ones for about a year, with some strange ancient `Lost Jutsu´, and not as zombies but as real humans again, with all the abilities they had before they died!" I explained to them.

"Lost Jutsu…., what´s that supposed to mean?" Toroi asked me with that curious expression.

Beside of his physical appearance was he strong and agile, as well as quite intellectual, a strong combination on the battlefield, he usually was in charge of making strategies.

"A lost Jutsu is a notable Jutsu which has been existed in old times, mostly to the time of the first Ninja World war or even before, but either died with the clan which had used it, or has been never used again since its creation and first use.

Also it can be described as a Jutsu which can only be used by one person, despite that person being member of a clan and sharing the same blood with them.

For example the Mokuton of the First Hokage, it was a Kekkai Genkai as well as a Lost Jutsu, which no-one else but him could use, despite him having a direct blood-related Brother.

Lost jutsus can only be taught by the one who created it.

However as much as I know at least, it existed a person in Konohagakure, who had been a victim to an illegal experiment, which managed to use Mokuton to a certain extend.

One could say it's an ultra-rare Kekkai Genkai, which normally dies out with the death of the user, as long as he does not taught it to someone.

There is no normal person by now, which can use Mokuton since birth, or at least out of natural circumstances, but the first Hokage.

However what I can tell you too, is that Lost Jutsus are almost always extremely dangerous and difficult jutsus!" I explained, as much as I have learned about that topic myself.

"I see, well that sure is awesome!" Toroi stated.

"Indeed…, anyways I like it…, I finally get to know the real Yugito Nii, in real-life rather than in the books.

It´s an honour to meet you, Yugito-sama!" Tarui stated, as she raised her hand to greet Yugito, which took the hand, after a few seconds of hesitation, in bafflement.

It was nothing strange for her to be hesitant and buff, since, before the war, very few people even cared to get to know us and even less cared about our existence as humans at all, they wanted us to vanish.

However now she had to see, that she was suddenly a superstar, she even had a real fanclub, as much as Yurui once told me.

"Nice to meet you too, Tarui-san!" Yugito stated with a forced and kind of awkward smile.

"When I tell this to the others they won´t believe me, especially that she´s engaged to B-Sensei!" Tarui stated, as she dashed of in excitement.

"Haha, she sure is as energetic as always!" I stated with a laugh.

"By the way, if you search for Yurui, he said he had something to do back home and I think I saw Saiumi running up to your house a few minutes ago.

Anyways I got to go now, I got some chores for my mom to do, see you later, B-sensei!" Toroi stated, as he dashed after Tarui.

"They are so nice!" Yugito stated, still in bafflement.

"They sure are, they are Yurui´s Teammates and I trained them, before they got an official team leader, that's why they still call me sensei!" I explained to her.

"So the people…., they aren´t hating us anymore…, I mean we still are Jinnchuriki´s after all?!" She asked uncomfortably, peeking around out of the corner of her eyes.

Despite having been respected as a strong Kunoichi in her later years before her death and despite the fact that I helped her to find her self-confidence, Yugito was always little weak at heart, same as back in our childhood as we had been mobbed.

She couldn´t truly trust people beside of me, she always had the suspicion that the people were mentally stabbing her back with their words, even after she accomplished a mission without any casualties on our side.

Which was not that exaggerated, since even I knew that we weren´t fully trusted, despite doing almost everything for our Village.

"No they don't, well most of them at least…, I cannot say that everyone feels the same way, it depends on the persons…, anyways, we got to go!" I stated and Yugito nodded.

We walked through the town, getting stopped every now and then by passing inhabitants and the peoples on the mart which gave us some things to eat and cook for free, smiling and thanking us.

Yugito seemed a bit uncomfortable, so I practically rushed with her back home, as fast as possible, which was easier said than done, it was as if the whole Villages suddenly knew about her resurrection and wanted to get a good glimpse of her.

"This is so crazy, I never thought they would ever be nice with me, or even happy to see me!" She stated pretty stressed out, as we finally were upon the hill near my home, with food worth for meals, lasting for an entire week .

"Well as I said before, many things changed ever since Naruto ended the war.

The general opinion over us Jinnchuriki has changed massively, not for the last thanks to Naruto´s book…, as I said before, I won't say that everyone thinks this way, but the majority of peoples think of us as their saviours, as humans rather than monsters.

But of course we also have to show them that we really are what they think, therefore has since the war been made a new rank, called Special S-rank, which are mostly peace-missions to prevent wars, revolutions and civil wars.

Also special and life-treating missions which can mostly only being accomplished by a Jinnchuriki, and Top 4 Jonin or a Kage-levelled Shinobi!" I stated.

"I see well that's cool for sure…, wait what are Top 4 Jonin?!" Yugito asked curious.

"The top 4 are the physically and technically four strongest Jonin in a village, the ones who stand directly under the Jinnchuriki and the Hokage.

Every half year there is a championship to determine the four strongest Jonin of all the 5 Nations, each Land sends a group of 20 Jonins, but in the end the last four have to battle to determine their rank.

I heard for the next time, Takigakure will send the first time their Jonin.

By the way, for the last five years Konohagakure won every time with the same Constellation!" I explained.

"Well they surely are strong then!" Yugito stated.

"Indeed, anyways c´mon in, Home sweet home, welcome to my men´s shed!" I stated with a smile as I opened the door.

Part II: Of broken hearts and new relations.

"Hmmm…, seems like we do have a guest, just as Toroi said…, Yurui, it´s me, Dad!" I stated, as I let Yugito inside.

"Hey Dad, Saiumi came over!" Yurui stated, as he poked his head out of the kitchen, alongside of a beautiful girl, which just happened to be his girlfriend, Saiumi Kiranii.

She had a slender and agile, but also quite muscular stature as well as lightly brown skin, she had Blonde hair styled in a Ponytail with sidebangs covering her right eye.

She wore a Purple shirt with ripped arms as well as the Kumogakure uniform, which gave her a fierce and wild appearance, despite being actually really kind most of the times, but beware if she feels enragement.

"Hey Saiumi, how´s it going?" I asked her.

"Everything´s chill, how about you, B-sensei?" She asked me with a smile.

"Oh I´m fine it could not be any better, by the way you two, say hello to my old girlfriend and my future wife, Yugito Nii!" I stated, as I pointed at Yugito, who just put on the spare house-shoes.

"Hello Miss, i´m Yurui Kira, Killer B´s adoptive son, nice to meet you!" Yurui stated with a smile of his own, means he arched his lips around his bubble-gum, so that it looked like a sinister side-grin in the end.

It made me smile weakly and sweat-dropping to say the least.

"N-Nice to meet you Yurui-san…, huh, what the….?!" Yugito stated, before holding her hands up in surprise, sweat-dropping again.

"Katcccchhhiiinnngg!" Suddenly I saw a blade being right at her throat.

"Alright what kind of game are you trying to play here missy, you came to the wrong neighbourhood if you thought you can easily fuck with us!" Saiumi stated with blazing eyes full of furry, her words were ice cold and sharp, like a blizzard.

"Saiumi what are you doing?!" Yurui and I asked in unison, highly alarmed.

"Geez you Boys are so stupid, it is obvious that she only tries to trick you, I bet she put you in a Genjutsu the moment you looked in her eyes, or maybe you were too captivated by her large cleavage to notice that she´s just a cheap imposter.

You have been deceived and lied to, there is no way that she´s Yugito Nii…, be-…, because.., because Yugito Nii is dead since about 20 years.

So how dare you to impose as her?!" Saiumi stated, as suddenly tears welled up in her eyes.

"Saiumi…!" I whispered in awe and concern, I never saw her this way before, only one time.

The day I met her the very first time.

She was an orphan, who had lived with her grandparents for a long time, before they died in a very unfortunate way a few years ago, it has been a really ugly affair back then.

It lasted a long time before she finally trusted someone and found back her laughing, Yurui and I tried our best to make her smiling again.

As I said before, she usually was very polite and nice and never said anything wrong against anyone, at least when she´s not angry, so seeing her snap like this towards a stranger, was as well a premier as it made me uncomfortable.

She has been like a daughter for me…, or at least like a very good friend.

It was, as if she refused the slightest idea of the real Yugito Nii to even be able to be resurrected, not that I couldn´t understand her surprise, it was an fantastic and incredible as well as frightening ability, which this Neherit has.

But the more fantastic it was, the more unbelievable it was, for anyone to comprehend it´s possibility.

"Well sure she died before the last war, but she has been resurrected through a mighty jutsu, you see…., believe me Saiumi, she is Yugito Nii, I beg you…., believe me!" I stated.

"No she´s not, she can´t be, I will not believe that she is, if she would be the real Yugito Nii, why did she never returned back to Kumogakure before!" Saiumi shouted, hatred still blazing from her eyes, radiating all over to the supposed imposter.

"But Saiumi-san, I admit I have been resurrected since a few days, barely a week now, but it´s still a long way from Konoha to Kumogakure, even if we ran non-stop it still lasts days before being able to reach the borders!" Yugito tried to calm Saiumi down.

"That's not what I meant, you imposing wretch….

You won´t be able to trick me, I am not like them, I won´t fall for you lies, nor your false charm, or your sweet words….., you cannot be Yugito Nii and I refuse to even consider her to be resurrected so easily!" Saiumi stated despite Yugito´s truthful logic.

Her blade never left Yugito´s throat and her eyes were fixated, not only on Yugito but on all of us.

She looked like a wild but cornered animal, ready to fight for her bare life.

"Saiumi, why do you refuse to believe that it could be the real one?!" Yurui asked her, confused about her behaviour.

" You too Yurui…, how could you, I trusted You, are her Breast so much more captivating than mine, is it that?!" Saiumi asked irrationally.

"What the hell…, what has the one thing to do with the other, and you know exactly that you are the only girl which breasts I am watching…., anyways answer me, why do you refuse to even considering it, there has to be a logical answer to that, am I right?!" Yurui asked.

"It´s because if she would be the real one, this would mean that there has been existing a possibility all along…., a possibility to bring dead people back to life, without turning them into zombies of practically no own will.

If it exists such a Jutsu, why did it has been used only now, why didn´t she was resurrected 20 years ago, why not, tell me, I refuse to believe this, she cannot be her.

If she would be the real one…, that would mean that she does not even knows me anymore…, that she does not even recognizes me as hers…, that she simply forgot me!" Saiumi stated before she broke down in tears, letting the blade falling to the ground.

Yurui kneeled on her side and took her in his arms.

"Wait what are you talking about honey, how she would know you, if she was dead since about 20 years, long before you were born?!" Yurui asked and now it finally dawned to me.

Why did I never came up with that logic before…, well in the end I never knew about it anyways…, before the last few days at least, so combining 1 and 1 has in this case being far too complicated to understand.

"It´s her name!" I stated baffled.

"What do you mean, Dad/Benjiro?!" Yugito and Yurui asked me.

"Her name is Saiumi Kiranii, Kiranii as in Kira and Nii, like Benjiro Kira and Yugito Nii!" I stated.

"Wait you are called Kiranii with second name?" Yugito shouted in bafflement as she paled.

"Indeed, I am Saiumi Kiranii, Yugito Nii´s only Daughter!" Saiumi shouted, as she took out the same medallion as I had, the one with Yugito´s picture on it.

"It´s a heritage of my late mother, I got it from Grandma as I became ten years, I never knew who my mother was, before I saw her picture in that one book in the library.

Grandma always only said that she was a shinobi of the village which died during a mission, so one day I sneaked away and went to the town in the library as I was 15, to research.

I wanted to know who this Yugito Nii was, I went to the library and looked in the population register, where I found her name and her occupation as a late Jinnchuriki.

I then searched everything I could know about Jinnchurikis and there I found info's about my mother, when she has been made a Jinnchuriki and even how she died.

Despite that, I was happy, even though she was dead, I finally got to know her, at least a little!" Saiumi stated and Yugito went even paler than before, I saw how tears streamed down her cheeks, of pain and joy alike.

"So that means in clear text that she is our daughter?!" I asked Yugito, buff and concerned like me, who nodded.

"Shortly before she was born I heard about the Akatsuki and that they were on the hunt after the Jinnchuriki, I knew if I ran away or stay in the village with Saiumi in my stomach, I would only endanger her, I had to give birth to her in a safe place…, so I thought it was the best to go to my grandparents.

They were the elder pair on the farm, you know, the ones I had told you about back in Konoha, they never got to know that I was actually their Granddaughter, until the moment I left to deal with the Akatsuki members which pursuit me.

The birth went successful and without any complications, thankfully Grandma had been a midwife in her early years so she knew how to handle it.

Matatabi meanwhile, held herself as calm as possible, and then it was all over, as I saw her lying in my arms I knew I would never see a more beautiful baby and I was glad to have left a most beautiful girl, to grow and become strong enough to show the world her strength.

But I knew what I had to do, as long as I was hunted, I could not stay at her side, until they were defeated.

Two Weeks later, at break of dawn, I left her with a letter in her crib and got ready to go on my own hunt, but before I could vanish, I was surprised by my Grandparents.

They somehow knew, that I would go out in order to get rid of them, they didn´t wanted to let me go but I told them that I had to.

They asked me to at least finally reveal my true name, so that they at least could tell Saiumi someday who her mother has been, in case I would not be able to return, out of any circumstance.

They always just knew me as Yu-san.

So I told them my name and the name of the child.

I named her Kiranii after my name and the name of her father!" Yugito explained.

"I could not tell you because I had to run away as far as possible from Akatsuki, to find a place where I can deal with them without endangering anyone, always in mind to not endanger Saiumi by revealing something.

I hoped to be able to win and return to my daughter, but as you know…., in the end I was killed before I could tell you Benjiro, but I also thought that it was better when she raised far away from the battlefield and the world of Ninjas, I wanted her to have a peaceful life!" Yugito told us.

"I see, but how come they never found out who you were?!" Yurui asked interested.

"My parents died during that time, as I was made a Jinnchuriki, my mother's parents never got to see me, nor did they knew that I actually had been born already, because I was instantly taken into custody and later as I was older have been trained in isolation to become a Jinnchuriki valuable for the village, alongside Benjiro.

Alone our friendship gave me the force to pull through, even without having a family.

Years passed and then it happened, it was shortly after a mission, I was on my way back home, all beaten up, starving and barely conscious, I fell unconscious in a field, the next morning, as I woke up, I was lying in a warm comfortable bed.

The farmers who owned the field had taken me in, you can´t imagine how grateful for their warmth and hospitality I had been.

Unfortunately did a few of my former enemies managed to hunt me down.

They ambushed the farm in the night and wounded the farmer, I managed to defeat my enemies and they ran off.

The Farmer was not hurt that severely, but he would have to rest for about a month, so I took it upon me to care for the farm alongside his wife, also to show my gratitude for their care.

With the time passing we became closer and they told me about their daughter and her husband, that they had been Shinobi of Kumogakure as well, but died during a military experiment.

They showed me a photobook of them and that's when I found out that the two of them were actually my grandparents.

You know, I had a medallion with the picture of my parents, the only thing I had, to remind me that I had parents, one of the photographs in the farmhouse was the exact same as in my medallion.

I was so glad that we had more in common, than just meeting by a mere coincidence.

Still they spoke so spiteful about the experiment which took them both away, that I did not dared to expose myself as being the result of the experiment.

After the farmer was back over the dam I made my way back into town, where they already waited on my report.

Over the following years I often visited them and helped where I could, it was nice having family, even though they never got to know it, so long until that fateful day!" Yugito explained.

"I see, so that's how it was, you were afraid that the only family and persons who cared about you, while being oblivious about your circumstance as Jinnchuriki, would turn their back on you, am I right?" Yurui asked and Yugito nodded.

"Other than them I had only Benjiro to fully trust, but he was a Jinnchuriki as well, so he was most likely targeted as well, either by mine or at his side, Saiumi would always be hunted with us, as long as Akatsuki remained active.

The only option was to hide her somewhere where no one would find her, and where she could live without being forced to engage in life-dangerous battles, I wanted my daughter to have a peaceful life without regrets.

But as things are standing even this wish has not been granted to me, you still became a Ninja!" Yugito stated as she broke down crying again.

"I had my reasons, 4 years ago, the Farm was attacked by fiend Ninjas who managed to get over the border and invade the land.

They searched refugee in our farm, and threatened to kill us if we would report them, however their boss wanted to rape me and treated Grandma like a slave.

Grandpa then fought against them, but was easily defeated, they killed him and Grandma, after she helped me to escape, all I could do was to run into the shed, unleash the animals as well as my precious comrade, Kuromi, my horse, and flee with him. (Kuro mi= Black Beauty)

The ninjas were after me but I managed to get into the village before they could get me.

I reported to the Ninja´s but no one wanted to believe me…, no one but B-sensei and Yurui-san, the two helped me and managed to defeat the ninjas, but the farm had already been burned down by the ones who fled away.

I had nothing, nowhere to go and nothing to live.

We searched in the rubble, but all that was left to me was Kuromi, her mother, the Medallion and my mother's swords, which she left there, to someday pass them down to me, if it ever would be necessary.

Grandpa, stated that Kuromi was the filly of the horse Mom had always cared about…" Saiumi stated as she dried her tears.

"Wait she´s Kuroya´s child?!" Yugito stated.

"You know her name?!" Saiumi asked baffled.

"But of course, I got her as she was a filly, she was the daughter of grandpa´s beloved horses, Shirayukihime, and Shogun!" Yugito stated, as her glance became really melancholic.

"I loved this horse, I really did, what happened to her?!" Yugito asked, almost terrified.

"She´s alive, she managed to get away from the flames with a few scars, but ever since she´s wild, massively aggressive and trusts no one but me!" Saiumi stated.

"She lives near the house, here on the other side of the hill, together with Kuromi!" Saiumi explained before she suddenly got an idea.

"Alright, your story does makes some sense and you know things no one else knows, however I am still not truly convinced, so let's make a last test, if Kuroya recognizes you and trusts you, I will trust you too, since she knows you, she should not be afraid of you am I right, a Genjutsu does not work on her, so don´t even try it?!" Saiumi asked.

"I accept your Challenge!" Yugito stated without a second of hesitation.

"Alright then let´s go!" Saiumi said and so we rushed over to the other side of the hill.

Part III: Forgive me!

We arrived near the shed where the horses had their refugee for rainy days.

There in the shadow lied two horses, the little one cuddling to the bigger one.

"Kuromi, it´s me, Saiumi!" Saiumi stated in a gentle voice, the little pony woke up, looked around and as she spotted Saiumi, she rose from the ground and trotted calmly over to us.

"Yes you are a good girl, you are the best, yes you are!" Saiumi coaxed to her.

"Kuroya, have you missed me?!" Yugito stated, as she stepped to the lying horse, which looked up and rose to her majestic form rather quickly

"It has been too long my old friend!" Yugito stated as the horse stepped calmly over to her, sniffed and nuzzled in her embrace.

"Well are you now convinced Saiumi!" Yurui asked his girlfriend.

"Seems like I have no other choice, but tell me, how did you managed to come back to life?!" Saiumi asked Yugito.

"Well I told, she has been resurrected by that Jutsu and…!" I tried to explain but Yugito but a finger on my lips, silencing me.

"I cannot really remember, I only know that I seemed to be stuck into darkness, floating within a vacuum of nothingness, I began to forget things, memories were lost and others, which I never had known of, resurfaced.

Also did suddenly a tiny sphere of light appeared and a voice spoke to me, she said that you were waiting for me and that he would give me a second chance to make things better, a chance to live again, a chance to save the world and become the hero I always had wished to be.

A Hero who was needed by the people, rather than being called a monster and remain uncared for, as long as I can think I wished myself the strength of Benjiro, the strength to go through this gruesome world with a smile on my lips, minding my own business and minding the opinion of others not a bit!" Yugito stated.

"Of course I followed the sphere, it was warmth and comfort alike, completely different from the time as I was raised as an Edo-Tensei Zombie.

Back then, my soul was encircled by black chains and being pulled into a lighter shade of darkness, I saw everything before my eyes, but I could not move my own body, it had no will of its own, it was made to a controlled puppet, nothing more nothing less.

I still almost can feel the darkness behind me, which once took a hold of my body and began to invade the depths of my existence.

It was like poison which spread through my soul.

I saw how my body attacked the one person I had always loved, and even though he joked and rapped like always, I saw right through his façade, he was full of wrath for the one controlling us and he wanted to be the one to crush his skull rather than Naruto-san.

Still I am glad that I am now able to embrace him again, to hold him in my arms and to love him again!" Yugito said as she came into my embrace and I held her close.

"…..,Wait a fucking second, so basically I am in love with my adoptive sister?!" Yurui suddenly stated, sweat-dropping after he finally processed the matter at hand, he was a little slow in mind, but strong nevertheless

"Well you guys are not bound by blood, plus you liked Saiumi even before we now know this, and I like her too, so if Yugito and Saiumi have nothing against, nothing needs to change in this relationship.

The only question that remains is if you, Saiumi, can even imagine to become part of our family!" I asked.

"Yes Benjiro is right, Saiumi, I know you have many questions and I am willing to answer them to you, but I want to know first, can you forgive me, for letting you alone and oblivious about who I had been and who your father had been, can you forgive Benjiro, who never knew you, but still believed you, as you were in highest need and asked him for help.

Can you forgive us, for never having been a real family?!" Yugito asked with a glance full of concern.

"…, tsss, that doesn't mean you are already off the hook, got it, I hope you understand that I am still pissed…., but if you guys promise to always be at our side, I think I might forgive you!" Saiumi stated with a huff.

"So that means I still can kiss her?!" Yurui asked, a little confused.

"If Saiumi is fine with that you can, I got no objections!" I stated.

"Well it seems to me that you are a good guy and Benjiro has raised you, so I know I can trust you with her, so as long as Saiumi wishes for it, I too got no objections!" Yugito explained and all eyes were directed to my new daughter.

"No objection here, I would love to let our relationship remain the same, Yurui, I love you and nothing will ever change that!" Saiumi stated, as she embraced Yurui and pushed her lips on his.

Of course Yugito blushed deep red, at the display of affection by our children.

"You know what, I think this cries out for a BBQ party, to really get to know each other, what do you think?" I asked.

"I am all in for it!" Yurui said.

"Sounds good!" Yugito and Saiumi stated in unison before giggling.

It pleased my eyes to see mother and daughter together.

"Start the fire, we will be back in no time!" I said, as I let go of her.

"Alright Yurui, Saiumi, let´s go to the woods and catch us some Boars!" I said and they fist bumped me.

"Will be done in one second flat, Dad!" they stated pumped up, in unison.

"Alright then, here we go!" I shouted in excitement while behind us Yugito laughed, before tears of joy streamed back down her cheeks.

"I dreamed of that for so long, to have a family with you and to do typical family things together, I am so grateful for this chance, I thank you Benjiro!" She stated, as she embraced and kissed me goodbye.

"I will remain forever on your side, will you join me there?!" I asked, as I kissed her back passionately.

"I will, so go and get us some food, but come back fast!" Yugito replied and I nodded with a thumb up.

"Will be done!" I stated and so I made my way into the woods with my children.

"I have such a luck of being born!" I mumbled to myself.

I looked up in the sky and asked myself what might happen from now on.

I had to find a possibility on how to make Yugito living more than just one year, I had to ask this Boy, this Neherit, about that.

"Whatever the Future brings, we will surely pull through!" I thought.

Part II: The Black-Thunderstorm case Part 1.

A month later, after the five Kage summit, Daruis Pov:

"Pheeew, finally done, guess things are soon going round again!" I stated, as I looked over my notices which I took during the Summit.

It was clear that the Hokage was completely overloaded with tasks, first the Two attempted assassinations on his family, and then suddenly the appearance of a demon.

"It´s not like I don´t believe him, we have our very own legends and monsters, which have attacked the people here in Kaminari no Kuni!" I thought, as I eyed the bookstore with the legends and the reports of never-closed mysterious cases.

Humans which have been gone mad due to ancient forces taking a hold of them, such stories were no rarity here in my Land.

"A being connected to an Element…., well that could be practically anything, how am I supposed to know what to search for!?" I thought, as I leaned back in my chair.

"Knock, Knock!" Suddenly the door was opened.

"Yeah, ah Omoi, Samui, good that you are here, I got something to ask you..!" I stated, as my two assistants and Bodyguards appeared.

"That must wait, we have a guest with a very important and highly interesting case for us!" Samui stated.

This really caught my interest, for Samui rarely showed much interest in a mission, she usually just pushed her teammates to finish it as quickly as possible, but there rarely have been cases when her attention was picked, as much as right now at least.

"I see, so please lead our guest inside!" I stated and she nodded.

"Please come inside!" She stated to someone, before a tiny young blonde girl with long twin-tails, practically only a middle school student, came inside.

She wore some kind of Black uniform with black shorts and a shirt as well as a chest armour, she also wore armoured gauntlets and some kind of mighty black rods on her back.

Beside of her height, did she looked like a strong and fierce warrior.

"Hello, I am Darui, the Raikage of…!" I began gently but I was apprubtly cut off.

"Yeah, yeah, I don't care that much who exactly you are, all what I care for is for my question to be answered, are you the uncle who can use Black Lightning?!" The girl stated with an annoyed tone.

"1 second…, 1 damn second and I am already pissed off by her!" I thought in disbelieve.

"Don´t stare at me like a cucumber, are you or not?!" The girl stated, her tone getting more and more annoying.

"Yeah I am!" I answered as short as possible.

"Really..., well what are you waiting for, show me something…, or do you thing I simply believe you this!" She said and as annoying as she was, she got a point there, so I simply showed her a small jutsu.

"Good, anyways my name is Maki Kamigami and I´m a warrior of Kaminari tategami no Mura (Village of the Lightning-manes)…., anyways to the case, our God, the Wise Lightning Tiger Voltora, who usually is a very kind and beloved God, has somehow gone mad!" She explained and it instantly picked my interest.

"A Lightning Tiger…, could it be…, a Wild Sage!" I thought, as I listened to her lament.

"Lately a massive Thunderstorm has appeared right over our village and the lands around, you know my Village is hidden within a giant meteor crater right in the middle, and is only passable over a mountain path, several hundred miles away from the middle point, where my village lies.

However this path has been since some time being covered by a massive plasma cloud, which surrounds the entire Crater´s circular peak as well as the sky above, causing even the sun to be unable to penetrate it.

Our harvest is withering away and it reigns an everlasting night and monsoon-like rainfalls in my hometown.

The Cloud is resistant against any of our forces and attacks continuously by releasing Black lightning-bolts on our village and the canyon around.

However are these different from the usual black lightning which gets used in my folk, this one either pulverises its target or turns them evil.

Since about a few months now, we have hidden ourselves under a massive shield, made with Raiton.

The Black lightning cannot penetrate it as before, however our forces began to slowly run out the longer we hold it up.

Therefore we send men who shall calm the raging Deity down, however no one of them ever came back home and the thunderstorm hasn´t cleared at all.

To be honest, it only has strengthen it´s dark power even more, it's like a big cloud of dark smoke, which sucks our life-force out the closer we come!" She explained and I instantly remembered Naruto-san´s report about what happened in Konohagakure.

That definitely sounded like a big cloud of miasma.

"As I said, if it would have only been normal black Lightning, we could most likely solve this problem by ourselves, however is this force way more sinister and not at all normal.

Not even our strongest warrior managed to get back alive, lately our deity sends monsters made out of the very same lightning, down from the Cloud-tower, his residence, in order to attack the citizens and the village.

As a last resort one of us, me in this case, was send through a secret passage, passing the canyon, without being seen, and there I arrived at the foot of the mountain, from there I was to dig me a way out of the Maze within the den in the mountains.

Afterwards, so my mission, I was to seek for help in this village.

Our tribe leader, the elder, told me that his youngest son once had to leave the tribe, due to a banishment because of a huge sin he had committed…, he taught our entire secrets to an outsider.., which apparently seems to be you!" the Girl, Maki-san, stated with venom in her mouth, scanning me with narrowed eyes, I admit I flinched, there was so much animosity against me within her glance.

"Wait you do mean the Sandaime Raikage, A-sama?!" I asked in disbelieve.

"A-sama….., who´s that?!" Maki-san asked.

"A-sama, he saved me as my parent´s died due to an avalanche and I had been lost in the mountains.

He came out of nowhere, after I starved for four days straight, I was on the end of my forces.

He shared his food with me and helped me back on my feet.

He said we should go to the Ninja-village, far in the west from where we were and so we made ourselves on the way.

During the time he showed me how to defend myself, and he also showed me the right use of the Black Raiton, as I almost killed myself one day, as I tried to copy him.

Even though I knew nothing about his background, I trusted him with my life, he said that he was on a journey back home.

And so, as we arrived our ways separated, but I never forgot him.

About a month later, he suddenly appeared back in the village, saying his tribe threw him out for accidently giving away one of their secrets.

Even though his past and affiliation was never fully uncovered, the people began to trust and depend on him, he was very strong, both in battle as well as mental, so he quickly managed to register as a Ninja of Kumogakure and managed to rise up in the ranks at an incredible speed.

He soon became the right hand man of the Niidaime Raikage and I was in his team as one of three Genins.

He trained me further in his Jutsus and soon we became famous as the ultimate tag team, but then an accident occurred, in which I was involved.

It was against a Ninja, who was able to use time travel jutsus and who started many ruckuses, by letting people vanishing, favourably somewhere into the past.

In order to defeat him and bring freedom back in the village, I chased the fiend Ninja together with my team, but I wanted to show my strength to my master, I was reckless and so it came as I had to come, I accidently ran right through a time-gate, which he created for himself to escape and so I landed 34 years in the future.

I managed to defeat the ninja after a hard battle, but he died and in the end I had no clue how to return back in my time.

I made my way back in the Village, where my ninja pals were all sceptic, since I vanished 34 years ago but still was 13 years old, they thought about an assault and me to be an imposter, and so they enclosed me in their prison.

Alone A-sama, who meanwhile had become the Raikage and who had been there to the time as I vanished, recognized me after I was brought to him and I was finally released.

He let me met his Son, A-sama junior, who was shortly after my absence been born and he said that he would personally train me, in order to make up for not having being able to save me back then.

Ever since I had been his subordinate until the day he died, as his son became Raikage and made me his right hand man!" I explained.

"Wait a second…, so what you want to say is, that my Grandfather Akinorai Kaminari was also your Sandaime Raikage, A-sama?!" Maki-san asked shocked. (Akinorai= Autumn Lightning)

We looked at each other in disbelieve.

"So you are saying that my predecessor, the Yondaime has a daughter?!" I asked in deep thought.

"… rather not, as he left the tribe, he left my father and Grandma behind…, so what you are saying is that he started here a new family?!" Maki-san asked in rage.

"That asshole…., grandma had always longed to see him again, despite his banishment….., she suffered for years…., then one day she went away to find and check up on him from afar, even though our clan leader tried to stop her.

As she came back she was pale, enraged and full of sorrow…, so that was what happened back then, he must have had already a new family…, this despicable asshole!

I still remember…, whenever we spoke about him, grandma and my Father only always spat his name in hatred and disgust, saying that he left us all behind!" Maki stated through grit teethes, her eyes blazed in hatred and fury.

"So you are A-sama-junior´s step-niece, I see!?" I stated and her eyes blazed up in furry.

"It doesn´t matter anyways, enough of that Shit-chat, anyways…, if you are indeed that brat Grandpa has showed our secrets to, you better help us…., after all you stand in debt to my tribe, for illegally using a force, which never was meant to be yours in the first place.

You are not of our tribe and as such also not taught in our secrets or even our laws, but fact is, that you can use the forces of Black Raiton, a Hiden which only our Leader knows and is allowed to teach to his successor, whether they are family or his subordinates!" Maki stated.

"So I request that you, as well as your two strongest Ninjas in town, come and help me saving my tribe and calming the raging Deity!" She stated, as she put a quite thick bag of money on the table.

"I guess this should be enough payment to request for a Special S-rank mission to be done, am I right?!" She asked with a fierce stance.

"Umm yeah that´s plenty, but what do you mean with my two strongest Ninjas?!" I asked in suspicion.

"Well your monster tamers of course, how are they called again…., ah yeah…, your Jinnchurikis, right…, anyways we need Ninjas with such exceptional power, that they can let a whole land shake in fear, before their very name.

As I asked for that at the entrance office, they told me to go see the Raikage and ask for a Special S-rank mission to be accomplished!" Mika explained and I nodded in understanding.

"Understood, I will see what I can do, first we got to make some plans with my strategist and my Jinnchurikis and then we can talk, this most likely will take about two hours, so if you want you can visit the town, Samui is going to show you around!" I stated and Samui nodded in understanding.

Observing and occupying, she knew the deal.

"Omoi go to B-san and get him and Yugito to me instantly!" I demanded from my Assistant and he nodded before vanishing.

"Well then I will take my leave now, contact me as soon as you guys are ready to go and it better be quickly!" Maki-san stated, before she turned around and was about to leave the room.

"Ah, wait a sec, there is something I wanted to ask you ever since you mentioned it…., your deity, Voltora…., do you indicate with the word `Lightning Tiger´, that he´s a Wild-Sage…., by any chance?!" I asked her and she was buff for a second, before she smirked amused.

"…., Guess you are smarter than I thought…., indeed our Deity is a Wild-Sage and we are the clan that has been serving him for since ancient times…., our Secrets were well kept, before grandfather gave them away towards you.

Thousands of years of Secrecy down the drain in a single month…, believe me, normally one would get the death-penalty for this crime…., he was lucky to only have been banished!" Maki-san explained as she sighed.

"As a team who is to accomplish a Special S-rank mission, you guys are to keep shut about anything concerning the mission, or its agenda and anything you are seeing, during the duration of the mission, which the mission-giver wishes to remain a secret, am I right?!" Maki asked me and I nodded.

"Alright, that´s all I need to know from you and all you need to know about our Deity, if you keep shut about everything, I guess I can begin to trust you!" Maki explained, as she walked out of the door and vanished.

"So it´s indeed a Wild-sage, Neherit-san and Naruto-san were right, they are getting attacked, brainwashed and manipulated, and it´s most likely that this one has been made especially aggressive, according to his current actions on his folk.

Maki seems to be very powerfull at least her Chakra is, her Aura was almost touchable, and if there were even stronger Adults being killed by this beast, then it do has to be quite powerful and probably a big hassle for Yugito-san and B-san!" I thought, as I looked at the Bag of cash on my Desk.

Was it really right to accept this mission…., if the kids get hurt or worse, get killed, B and Yugito-san won't forgive me till I die, I better don´t take them along…., Yurui might understand…, the question was if Saiumi would.

"Pheeew, I really have to stop painting the devil on the wall, at least in my free-time…., geez that's such a drag!" I mumbled, as I leaned back in my Chair.

Part 2/ Depart to the Thunder-roar-Canyon.

Said and done, after approximately one and a half hour the party was standing, B-san and Yugito-san were ready to go, the only difficulty now were their children.

Seriously, I have to stop painting devils on the walls.

"Are you kidding me, what the hell do you mean I cannot go with you guys?!" Saiumi Kiranii, Yugito and B´s 20 years old Daughter asked me, with that accusing look on her face.

"It´s just as I said, it´s way too dangerous for you guys to come along, so you going to stay here, what didn´t you understood there?!" I asked, I was known to have an amazing patience, but even that one can crumble sometimes, just as right now.

For the last 20 minutes she kept on bugging me, she knew no respect for her Raikage, I knew that much as she was introduced to me the first time, still, even if she had been doing farm work for practically all her life, she was a natural prodigy as Ninja, she proved to be capable of doing dangerous missions and her records spoke for herself, so there wasn´t any reason I should not take her with us right?

Wrong, for her mother practically killed me with her eyes, as we came across that topic.

"I don´t care if it´s dangerous, i´m going with you whether you like it or not!" She shouted.

"Saiumi, this is an order from your Raikage, you stay here!" I said in a loud voice.

"I don´t care who you are and you have no fucking power over me, so butt out of it…., 20 years…., 20 years I longed to see my mother and now that I finally got her back, since only one fucking month, you want to take her away on a suicide mission…., for which you even need two Jinnchuriki at once?

I beg your pardon, but I won't take that, i´m going with you guys and that's final!" She shouted.

"Take her in custody!" I shouted to Omoi and Samui as my patience crumbled to a pile of dust.

"What, do you want a mouthful of Fist?" she threatened them both with an imperial look, sparks of mighty electricity paired with bluish flames sparked around her, which made them flinching and backing away.

She surely was not to underestimate, mostly since she was the daughter of Two Jinnchuriki´s…, while not having an own Bijuu like Naruto´s son has, she was several times stronger than any Ninja-prodigy of our village, even sometimes stronger as a few of my jonin.

That time, as she came here the first time to ask for help, the gate guards made fun of her, instead of believing her story.

As a result they all were beaten to a pulp from her, before B-san and Yurui-san managed to calm her down.

Normally she was quite kind, as long as she was not pissed off, however she didn´t came along well with authority, various teachers fled in bright colour after they were assigned to teach her.

Nevertheless was she talented without a doubt and she do could be a nice addition in power, after all was she close to become a Jonin same as Yurui.

"Geeez, alright for peace between you and the village, you can come along, but you going to listen to every order which I am giving to you, understood?!" I asked and ignored Yugito´s angry glance.

"If something happens to her, you won´t live another second!" that was the major thought behind the death-glare she gave me.

Why do I have to deal with that anyways, it´s her family after all, not mine, right?

"Understood!" Saiumi stated in a happy tone, changing expressions and mood in one second flat.

"Wow…., you guys are really annoying you know…, anyways if you are finally done with your soap opera, can we finally go now?!" Maki asked, to say she was annoyed was an understatement, she was downright pissed.

I could understand her, every second we had to deal bickering, was a second more in which her clan had to suffer.

A few moments later we stood at the entrance to the town.

"Alright guys, listen to me, the Thunder-roar-Canyon lies from here on out in the north, further into the land, in a place called, Cumulus-Valley, it's around 2 days of travel from here!" She stated as she pointed on a map.

"Its way too far for only two days, at least two weeks you can count with, according to the difference of the scale on the map to the reality!" Yugito stated as she observed the map.

"Who says that we go on foot?!" Maki-san replied irritated, as she used a jutsu to create a Rock golem.

"Doton: Dōbutsu Gōremu no Jutsu (Earth-style: Jutsu of the Animal Rock-golem)!" She shouted and suddenly a giant bird made of rocks appeared before us, which began to float in the air.

"All on board towards Cumulus-Valley!" She stated as we all jumped up on it.

"Next stop, Kaminari tategami no Mura (Village of the Lightning-manes), hold on tight!" Maki explained and so the beast rose up into the sky, before making a quick-start and flying with accelerated speed towards our destination.

Little I knew that we were on our way to one of our hardest Battles, for this Wild-Sage should be anything but easy to beat.

"Well at least it surely won't get boring!" I mumbled as I looked forward towards the horizon.

(To be continued...)

Part III: S.I.I.O.N.T.´s recruiting days:

Part 1/ Himawari´s great mission.

To say I was buff that my Father called my mother to him was an understatement, he never usually had done that, since the time he became Hokage, but this time she stood before me in her Ninja-uniform, a sight I haven't seen ever before.

She looked a tenfold stronger this way.

"Your mother looks so strong, Hima!" Katsuo stated.

"I know right, she´s so awesome, it´s sad that I missed my mother in her uniform before she and dad went away!" Shana stated.

Next to my team minus my Sensei, Katsuo´s father, and my mother, I saw Kotetsu-san and Izumi-san, Inojin´s father, Sai-san, Moegi-sensei and her boyfriend Udon-sensei, Sarin-san´s father Shigure-san and Kiba-san standing together in the Hokage´s Office.

"Is everybody here, good, well I asked you here because of an important matter.

It is about recruiting some peoples for a Secret collaboration-Project of the Five Nations and Tetsu no Kuni!" Dad stated and I saw how mom almost unseen nodded to herself.

I bet she knew about this Secret Collaboration-Project and I bet it was about this S.I.I.O.N.T. thing which I heard about accidently, a few days ago

The same was going for Kiba-san, Sai-san, Udon-san and Moegi-san, they too knew something.

"This mission stands in a high importance, before and now even more, ever since last night's attack.

The Persons to recruit are all listed in this file, as well as their last known whereabouts and known abilities.

Many of them are either Ex-ninjas, or bear special and tremendous power, also are some of them are quite suspicious of outsiders…., so it won´t always be easy to make them listen to you, less to persuade them of joining.

However they are essential for the Project especially because of their powers, also I fear that they might get targeted by Orochimaru in the near future, before that happens I want to know they are at least safe.

Still I don´t want you to force them, if they accept or not is fully their choice.

Therefore I want you to offer them a place in this Project, next to the files lies a scroll for each of them, what stands in these scrolls is always different but it is highly private and so it does not concern you, you could say they are top secret, although they are only personal, letter from me to them.

Most of them I have known once in my childhood, so they could have changed mighty, I don´t know, I haven't seen many of them in years.

Anyways that's the mission of this time, it is unranked because we cannot truly tell you, in which way we can rank each of the dangers you might get into, since it are too many different types of people and perhaps several of dangers you are going to encounter!" Father stated.

"I see, but how do we go forth on this?!" Kiba-sensei asked.

"Well I thought that the kids divide in two parts, which would mean that there will be always 4 adults and 2 kids, understood.

Himawari and Katsuo-kun are going with Hinata as team leader, followed by Kotetsu-san, Izumi-san and Sai-san, you guys are taking upon the first half of the files.

While You, Kiba-san, are the second team leader, you are followed by Moegi-san, Udon-san and Shigure-san as well as Shana-chan and Hiro-kun, you are taking upon the other half.

Also…, if you try anything on Hinata I will have to kick your sorry asses up to the moon, understood Kotetsu-san, Izumi-san, you going to listen to her every word, have you understood.

Hinata, you have to be strict with them, also you are going to evaluate their effort, as you might know are Kotetsu-san and Izumi-san taking in a month approximately, if nothing new comes up, their Jonin-test, so the success in this mission can come in handy for your evaluation.

Therefore I await a precise report, about each measures you took to get to the target and how you encountered her/him, understood!?" Dad asked and both Mom and Kiba-sensei nodded in understanding.

"This mission might last a few weeks, since the last known locations of these people are in various places, across either Hi no Kuni or even abroad, therefore we need Hinata and you as the Teams scouts.

Also are you guys since a very long time Jonin, therefore you guys should lead the teams as the best, I would say.

Anyways, are there any questions?!" Dad asked.

"Well are there some things we need to know about these people, for example how dangerous they might be for us!?" Moegi-san asked.

"Everything stands in the files, at least everything I and those I encountered them with, still knew about them.

But as I told you, it are several years passed since then, so it should be assumed, that they surely got some whole new tricks in store, so by any means be careful and don´t take unnecessary risks!" Dad explained and everybody nodded.

"Well then, leave it to us, we gonna get this done in no time!" Kiba-sensei stated pumped up.

"Sure I would like to see that Kiba, but remember, before you try to persuade each of them, give them the letters first, they are personally written by me towards each of them.

Also are there not only persons of nomad-status, but also noblemen and -women which I had encountered in my life, either for finding them or for bodyguard missions, as I was Genin and Chunin myself, so always stay polite to them.

Most of these nobles I asked more for financial or military support, than to join the Project, so don´t mention the Project at all…., all which concerns those people stands in their Letter.

Anyways this was all you have to know by now, as I told you, all the things you need to know are standing in the files, anyways I hope to get a report from both of you in the next few days.

As I said the Mission is mostly unranked due to these different factors, though for the time being we will simply treating it as an A-rank mission, so even if everything goes smooth you will get A-rank payment, if more than three members of your team are injured, or somebody is severely injured in any case, be it poisoning, or other injuries, then please take care of the injuries before proceeding any further in the mission.

If your team is greatly incapable of proceeding further then please refrain from taking any risk and retreat instantly, come back home then, I don´t want to have any deaths to be claimed, understood?!" Dad asked with a serious mine.

"Understood!" We all said with honest voices.

"The wellbeing of your comrades goes before the accomplishment of the mission…., also if you find any sign of crime or injustice during your mission, which not particularly has something to do with the mission, please try to solve them peacefully and quick, if possible.

However only here in Hi no Kuni, in the current times we can´t risk an international crisis, so before you operate on these cases abroad, please send me a letter so I can handle any political measures, which might to be taken care off first.

However, if it really is not possible for you to wait any longer, you are allowed to butt in, I then will do anything to negotiate with the leaders of the land, but it would be best, that you always first gather evidences for crimes before proceeding.

However I don´t want you guys to meddle within a possible war of two or more lands, if you are sure you can´t solve it by political talks!" Dad explained and looked at each of us with a worried expression.

"Sir, yes, sir!" We said.

"Alright, then go now and be careful at all times, if you come across danger beyond your limits, don´t hesitate to retreat and to send me the details about it, it is not a shame if you save your own live over a mission.

However sometimes even that cannot be accomplished without sacrifices, so at least try to not let any of such sacrifices happen, as I said before, in case you come across massive danger, I will try to take care about it then by myself!" Father said and we nodded.

"Alright then go prepare, the mission begins in 3 hours, say goodbye to everyone, don´t forget that understood, even if you are in a fight with them, try everything to find them, try to make up, thank them for their time spent with you and say goodbye!" Dad stated and nodded over to Kiba who sighed, guess he and Tamaki were back in a Fight.

"Shana-chan, Hiro-kun, Katsuo-kun, Himawari and Hinata, please stay here for a second!" Dad said and while all the others vanished out of the office, we few stayed behind.

"Shana-chan and Hiro-kun, these bags are for you, your Mother and Father prepared them in case of you having a mission, as you know are they out on a long-time mission themselves, so they gave me them for you two, in there is everything you need for such a mission.

I spoke with them before the Funeral this morning and they prepared everything for you.

Also for the time being, if you come back before them, you are to visit your aunt Tamaki and uncle Kiba and stay there, they will take care of you until your parents are back home, Hana-san spoke with your mother about anything, understood!" I asked them and they nodded.

"Alright then go prepare yourself with other things you need to do, you should check on Tamaki-san and Kiba-san to make sure that they at least make up before he leaves, alright…, dismissed!" Dad said and both of them nodded before vanishing out of the office.

Dad stood up, stretched and walked around the desk an up to us.

"Actually this mission was meant for Konohamaru-san and Mirai-san´s teams, but I had to send them alongside of the troop towards the Land of Demons.

Since they are talented enough for something like this and also in the best hands, they should not have any problems and even if such a case occurs, where they need my help, I can always switch my place in one second flat.

The wristband, which I gave Bolt for his last birthday, is both a nice accessory, as well as a special ninja tool, which lets me know and observe his mental state.

I will know it instantly if something is wrong, since he is not easy to be terrorized, also are some of Sasuke´s Hawks observing the three groups, so he always knows what's going on.

We don´t have much Genin or even Chunin of their Calibre, so we have to promote their abilities, on that they become strong and dependable Jonin someday, ninjas on which their parents couldn´t be any prouder.

Also I need most of the other Jonin and Chunin to guard the Town and the surrounding villages, I don't want a similar threat as yesterday to reoccur in the next time.

For that reason, I spoke with the Daimio to enforce his patrolling troops in the remaining villages, to better and faster react on new threats.

Anyways, I am though glad that you kids are talented enough for being given this mission here, which is not less important, and with Hinata on your side nothing should go wrong, after all she is beside of Sakura, Lady Tsunade and my Mother, the strongest woman I know personally!" Dad stated and mom chuckled as well as blushed deep red at the compliment.

"Anyways, Katsuo, your parents asked me, after you come back from your mission, to take care of you for the time they are away and i´m willing to do so, if you want it too, also I wanted you guys to use this, just in case you are in deep trouble, it will be your trump card.

A Hokage on demand, so to say.

In these rings are also, same as in Bolt´s, my mark for the Hiraishin engraved, as well as the CoSiMeDe, the corporal-signal-measurement-device, which measures your pulse and other symptoms of negative feelings, like hormone-release.

Just pump chakra inside and I know instantly that you are in need of help, I then will send my Kagebushin, he should be strong enough to defeat minor enemies and even if he´s shattered, I will know about your dilemma in an instant and come down myself!" Dad said, as he gave him one of his Special Kunais.

"Kiba has one too, same as you Hinata and Himawari. just in case you lose the rings.

And In case you are getting separated, do I have this here for you, it comes from Yamato-san.

These seeds are able to connect your minds, you can speak over telepathy with your team mates and also over wide distances with them, better than any electrical device, and it´s called a Haibu Shushi (Hive-seed) a better form of the Soushin Ki.

And last but not least this…!" Dad stated, as he embraced us all.

"Come home safe and sound, please promise it to me!" He said and I pressed myself on him.

"We will Naruto/Daddy/ Mr. Uzumaki!" we said in unison.

"My beautiful Children and my wonderful wife, without you I would not know what to do!" Dad said and I saw how red Katsuo got.

"But…, but Mr. Uzumaki, I am not your child!" Katsuo stated, stammering, embarrassed as well as a little happy I guess.

"You are right, I guess…, however you are a child of Konohagakure no Sato and the Townspeople are my family, and therefore you are my Child as well!" Dad said.

"And I remember almost every important day of your former life, from before 5 years, I took care of you as you were this little, so I think I can consider you my child as well!" Dad said and I nodded.

"Daddy´s right, you are practically family, we had always been together, right!?" I asked him and Katsuo smiled.

"I guess you are right!" He stated blushing.

"Anyways, time to go or else you will be late, hope to hear from you soon, you got my phone-number so don´t hesitate to call, even if it´s just to hear my voice…., I miss you guys already!" Dad said, as he once again embraced us and there were honest tears in his eyes, while mom petted his head with a loving smile and tears of her own.

"Be careful and come back home as quick as possible!" Dad said and mom nodded.

"No fear my Dear, I bring them back home safe and sound!" Mom stated before she kissed dad gently and passionate, cupping his face in her hands and closing the gap of their lips inch for inch, until they practically merged together.

I blushed at the sight, same as Katsuo, I felt how he gently grabbed my hand and squeezed it lightly, I blushed even more.

"Well then we are off now, keep the church in the village, Dad!" I said and he smiled.

"I will do so, sweetheart!" Dad said and we saluted before vanishing out of the office as well.

"Alright Katsuo, get your things and then meet me at my home, okay!" I said and he smiled at me, before kissing me on the cheek, useless to say that I blushed deep red.

Out of the corner of my eye I could see how mom chuckled with a light blush.

"See you later then, Hima, Hinata-san!" Katsuo stated as we stood in our street.

"Yeah see you!" we replied as he rushed off.

"He´s really cute…, I hope for many grandchildren, Himawari!" Mom snickered.

"Mooooooommmm!" I shouted, shocked and embarrassed.

"Just kidding!" She chuckled, as she walked in the house.

"Geez…., seriously…, don't make such jokes…, we only just began to date…, I won´t think about having kids yet!" I mumbled, I blushed by the mere thought of that.

"Maybe in 6 years!" I thought, flushing red, as I walked into the house.

Little I knew that I might not even had a year anymore, as things were standing elsewhere right now.

Part IV: Eyes in the Shadow/ part 2:

Meanwhile in the Land of Demons, Thorncrow´s Pov:

It was the first time in years since I actually left the Castle for a mission of this scale, so I was a bit excited, though not too much to show it to my Sensei.

"So this is the land of demons…, looks peaceful to me, don´t really comes close to its name thought!" I stated, I hadn´t really ever looked at this land before, even though I lived here for so long, it just didn´t picked my interest.

"Believe me, about 2.100 years ago did this land looked completely different, Demons roamed the land and the Humans lived in fear before them.

To that time the Nine Hell-circles, the prison walls to keep the three Titans enclosed, had been created once more and most of the demons who terrorized this land, were used as sacrifices to craft these mighty seals.

Out of those lost and vengeful souls, of those Demons who were killed but hadn´t been used for the seals, Mōryō came to existence, before they could be sealed, that's also why he´s called the 1000-headed shadow-dragon.

An entity serves as the core while the demons around him are just to fuel it´s evil intent, as much as I know about it, Mōryō's original self once has been human, a King, a Tyrant, he had always been evil, but his greed was unmeasurable, at the time of his mortal death, he was corrupted by mighty malevolence and his soul had already been tainted to pitch-black.

It was inevitable that miasma as well as demons were lured to his presence, however the king was also acknowledged in ancient evil arts, called black magic, he used to consume their rotten and pested souls, in order to fuel his own powers of calamity.

The dead bodies of those Demons, who were later killed by your Brother and his men, during the last Demon war, but whose souls went to Mōryō instead of the gate of hell, were buried in one shrine with many seals.

Of course such a concentration of miasma lured other demons, from abroad, out of their hiding.

But each and every one was killed and sealed all across the land, but the damage was already done, having so many Demons on one pile, even if they were dead, could only bring something evil.

And this evil was Mōryō's perfect form, the being we call Senzu no Kage Ryu (1000-headed Shadow-dragon).

Even though his soul was used to close the first and last-crafted Gate of the first Hell-circle, the walls of his prison were broken, around 1.100 years ago, during the last Demon-war, as we, means Duhalan and myself managed to break the first Hell-circles open, in order to gather the demon´s souls for our lord to break free.

However as you know since some time now, did we underestimated the number of captured demons and in the end, we could not even hold of the massive wave, which also almost killed ourselves to that time!" Sensei Anubis stated and it left a sour taste in my mouth.

In a way these two were responsible for the whole Tragedy to even occur in the first place…, not that I hadn´t knew that and tried to get my revenge on them…, but I quickly had to see, that I was not in the slightest able to defeat them, as weak as I was back then.

In the end after almost have been killed by them, I gave up on my revenge on them, also due to have set myself a primary goal, which I was willing to execute with all of my heart and life-force, the killing of my brother.

In the end they decided to let me live, also because Sensei had gotten a liking in me and my will to defeat the one that disturbed their attempt to release their lord in the first place.

We had a mutual enemy and he taught me in his techniques, which was all what connected us.

To him I was basically only a tool to execute their plan, not that I minded it much, I wanted to kill my brother, that was all that mattered to me, so for me they were the enemy of my enemy.

They were mere means to me, in order to get strong enough to defeat my brother, so we were as well as accomplices, and so I accepted his offer to teach me and learn from him.

"However as you know did your Brother managed to blow our plan, as we were shortly before its fulfilling.

He killed the Infernal generals which we wanted to use for our mission, getting stronger per day, and before we could get our hands on them, he also targeted us and so we had to retreat and hide, we bid our time and hid here in the castle, that was before you came here, on that stormy day.

I admit, to that time we weren´t as strong as today, so he had easy game with us and he almost killed us with that nasty sword of him.

But things have changed, now we can most likely defeat him.

Anyways I am drifting off…, ahem…, during that time, as your brother had vanished and hid himself, the first circle broke open once again, although we didn´t had been responsible for it.

About 100 years ago someone managed to break through all the new boundaries which had been rose in order to secure the Hell-gates, the first Hell-circle was broken open and the demons flooded, from anew, the world.

Mōryō was released too, so also the two remaining gate guardians, mighty demons similar to Mōryō but stronger in their power.

In order to become strong Mōryō consumed the evil souls of his minor inmates, before he went to his body, unleashed it from the seals and rose back completely to live.

He swore once bitter revenge on the Land of Demons, and so he was about to attack the world with his puppet warriors, after conquering the land of Demons.

However the people of this land, as well as a befriended foreign clan, which were gifted in sealing techniques, managed to suppress his advance, as well as repel the masses of demons which flooded the land, but they still could not kill or seal Mōryō away, they were too weak to fully bind him.

However around 39 years after his release, so, 61 years ago, the land sought help by a Ninja-village, Konohagakure no Sato.

A young talented Kunoichi, originally out of Konohagakure, managed to seal Mōryō's soul in a shrine in the land of demons.

Afterwards, to prevent him from unleashing himself again, she stayed in the land and became high-priestess of the land, her name was Lady Miroku, and she was 16 to that time as she bound Mōryō.

During her time in Konoha, she had been trained by a mighty member of a befriended and mighty Clan of Seal casters, which lived since old times in the village.

The Member, a woman, came from the very same Seal-caster Clan who once tried to seal Mōryō, 100 years prior to today!" Sensei explained and nodded in understanding, I bet this clan was the Uzumaki-Clan, and the Woman was definitely Lady Mito, I wouldn´t know another woman who could teach such a sealing jutsu.

A Jutsu able to not only bind Bijuu but also Demon-kings, such as Mōryō, trying to defeat him would definitely be a hassle.

"However the seal was not strong enough, mainly because the girl still was too inexperienced to get it right, only 6 years later Mōryō managed to free himself again.

Lady Miroku, after sacrificing her own life, by weaving the same into the seal, to seal the demon, left her new-born daughter back in the castle and died at the age of 22.

Mōryō's body however was, as a prevention of a new arising, brought out of the land with help of the Clan holding the seal over it up.

The seal of Lady Miroku disabled Mōryō's soul to surviving long enough without a physical and organic manifestation, in short, if he does not find a suitable body within an hour, he vanishes into oblivion.

His own body was brought in a shrine in the Land of swamps, where the clan of strong seal-casters managed to craft a seal around the shrine, strong enough to hide every trace of Mōryō´s body.

However around 19 years ago Mōryō managed to escape out of his new prison, with the help of Yomi, one of his followers and attacked the land of the Demons, in search of his body, once again.

After a massive battle with the current Hokage, he lost most of his powers, and was severely injured and beaten by the Hokage and Lady Miroku´s combined forces, to that time, same as her mother once, Lady Shion was only 16 years old,

After he lost the battle, he hid ever since, biding his time and consuming the miasma in the world.

It is to assume that his original body had been destroyed during this battle, so for the moment he is nothing but a core-soul surrounded by evil power, perhaps living in a temporarily host, perfect for us to gather and sacrifice him for our lord.

However due to the current breaking of the latest two Hell-gates, dark souls managed to free themselves, and it´s likely that Mōryō's power has meanwhile assembled his old powers and most likely will increase it even more, we have to get him before he becomes too strong to handle for us.

As I said before, he is only a core surrounded by evil miasma and malevolence, so his powers can be increased to an unknown and possibly endless extent, no one knows how much he can take, before the core loses its dominance over the other souls merging of malevolence without mind, only with destruction and annihilation in order to gather more dark power, as his primary goal!" Sensei Anubis stated, as he looked down on the land, over which we flew on Raksharia.

"I see, so all we got to do is to capture Mōryō before he becomes too strong for us and sacrifice his powers for our lord, for him to break out of his Hell-Circle…, and how are we supposed to gather these souls, I bet they are not so easily as normal human souls, am I right?!" I asked.

"Indeed, but we got our means, however Mōryō as he might be for the time, will be most likely still too less for our goal.

Of course it would be convenient if he has as much as souls consumed as possible, but if we cannot handle him anymore the whole plan will be of no use.

So, if possible, we have to find the other three demons as well, that would be, according to our informations, Fukitsu kabutomushi (Sinister Beetle) and Yamata no Orochi (Eight-headed Giant Snake)!" Anubis-Sensei explained.

"I see, and where are they?!" I asked.

"That is the 1 Million-Ryou-Question, no one really knows where they are, but it is most likely that they live in hosts, to hide themselves and bide their time gathering malevolence and miasma together to become stronger!" Sensei explained.

"They hide themselves?!" I asked.

"Yes, mostly from Demon-hunters like your brother!" Sensei stated.

"I see, so it´s most likely that we will sooner or later stand against him perhaps!" I stated in glee, it was fantastic, I could kill two birds with one stone.

"Possible, but beware, I bet he wasn´t all too lazy himself, not at all as you might think the whole time, even when he does not consumes Souls to become stronger, he can be a pain in the butt…, believe me, I fought once with him…, never underestimate your enemy, you might burn yourself if you do!" Anubis Sensei said to me with narrowed eyes.

"I will be careful!" I nodded.

"Good to know, anyways we better hurry, I can feel that something dark and sinister is awakening, it gives me Goosebumps, man it´s aura is even more evil than my own….., this will be a hard battle for sure!" he said and I nodded, and so Raksharia accelerated our travel.

Little I knew, that I should experience my brother´s Battle-power on my own very soon.

Part V: The strangest Messenger ever:

Shion´s Pov:

It has been a week since I send the letter and I got already anxious, even after this week my soldiers found no trace of Sasaki, he was nowhere to find.

"Just what happened to you?!" I asked myself worried, it got harder to lie towards Talia, she became quiet suspicious of the absence of her father.

"Naruto, please…., I hope you can help me!" I thought as I stood at the window looking towards the horizon, where the Spirit-mountains, the natural border of our land, were standing.

I still remembered how I met Naruto for the very first time, and while I was in thoughts I only faintly heard a commotion in my castle.

To the same time, Gamatech´s Pov:

I somehow made it into the castle, even thought I had almost being overrun by massive canon-wagons of the Castle´s soldiers, and then I had even been chased around the town, by a hound of stray dogs.

To say that I was relieved to finally being out of danger was an understatement.

However I jumped right into new problems, problems which wanted to get me for my very legs.

"And now stay right there frog, tonight we will have a feast and we are short on Frog-legs, so you came just in time!" The mad man before me, a cook, stated with a sick glimmer in his eyes.

"How the hell did it come to this now?!" I asked myself in thoughts, as my heart raced, too fast for me to form words.

"Naruto you jerk, how could you send me to such a dangerous place?" I cursed my master and frantically searched for a way, to get away with full skin.

"There´s no escape, now, so be a good frog and let me catch you!" The mad Cook stated and I began to sweat buckets.

"Guess there´s is no helping, Henge no Jutsu!" I shouted, before I transformed myself within a predator, and flew upwards, of course the Cook jumped out of the way, surprised and shocked.

"What the hell, where has that frog gone?!" He shouted as he frantically swung his butcher knife in the air, making it hard to dodge in this tiny space, everywhere stood hot and boiling things and the air was pested with sharp smells of spices and hot by the heat of a massive fire-oven, seriously, I was shortly before dehydrating.

"Got to get out of here as quick as possible!" I thought, as I flew through the door which luckily just was opened, I startled one of the Cooks who came in with a silver plate full of sweets, who fell down and spilled the sweets all over the floor.

"Argh, noooo, the sweets, come back here you miserable Bird!" The Cook yelled, as he ran after me.

"Shit, shit, shit, leave me alone already, i´m not here to play around!" I yelled back.

"A speaking bird…., this going to be the most delicious bird my lord and Ladies ever have tasted!" The Cook shouted in glee, as he accelerated his pace.

"Are you fucking nuts?!" I screamed back, as I flew as fast as I could.

I turned sharply around a corner, I had no idea where I even was flying, but I hoped to at least live long enough, to pass on the Message which Naruto had entrusted on me.

"Got to get away!" I stated, as I used once again Henge no Jutsu and transformed into a cat, with which I was able to be more agile.

I ran as fast as I could through the corridors.

"Phew I think I managed to get away!" I stated after a while.

"Well look at this, who would you be?!" I heard a voice behind me.

I flinched and turned around slowly, only to look in the eyes of a teenage Girl.

"Well fuck!" I thought as I suddenly was pulled up in the air.

"Oh gosh, you are so cute, what's your name!" The Girl stated.

"I got to hide the fact that I can talk, or else I will surely land on the table!" I thought, as I forced myself to meow.

"So your name is Mashiro!" The girl stated and I wanted to facepalming.

How the hell did she came up with that name.

"My name is Talia, let´s be friends!" The Girl stated and I heard something like begging in her voice, her eyes looked up with anticipation and hope, I was torn by this look, so I faked an approving meowed.

"Really, thank you a million times…, you see I have no friends and all the peoples I know are only my Parents and some of the employers here!" The girl stated, as she transported me, on her arms, through the castle.

I thought to have heard the sorrow out of her voice and I was really sorry for her.

Still, I hid the fact that I first was not a cat at all, and I also still had to pass on this message.

"I swear we will have a lot of fun together!" Talia stated with honest joy and I hated myself to have to break her heart later on.

I felt worse to say the least, but it had to be, I couldn´t lose more time.

"So let´s play and… wait, hey… watch out!" She shouted as I jumped, after quick thinking, out of her arms and bolted down the corridor, I looked behind me while running and so oversaw the door before me which was opened.

Of course I crashed right inside and was knocked back.

Useless to say that so also the camouflage blew up.

"Huh, wait…, why is there now a frog?!" I heard Talia´s voice, heavy and pained with disbelieve and sorrow.

"Aaaarrrgggh, I have enough, what the hell is wrong with this land, I was almost overrun, then I got hunted by a hound of stupid mongrels.

I was almost fried and cooked by that crazy Chef, and then chased through half of this stupid castle and as crowning peoples are pushing doors right in my face.

Enough is enough, I can´t take it anymore, I am but only hear to deliver that stupid message!" I shouted.

"The frog…, it, it, it even talked!" Talia shouted in a high pitched scream.

"I´m no frog and I am also not `It´, so stop to treat me like a delicate meal or a toy…, Geeez, my name is Gamatech and I am a toad of Myoubokuzan, and I am only here to deliver a message to Lady Shion, goddammit!" I shouted in enragement.

"A Message for me… but why?!" The woman who opened the door asked.

"Are you Lady Shion, High-priestess of the land of Demons?!" I asked in wonderment.

"Yes indeed that's me!?" Lady Shion nodded confused.

"O good god finally, anyway, I come on behalf of the Hokage of Konohagakure no Sato, Naruto-sama, I shall pass on an important message to you!" I stated.

"From Naruto…, please follow me?!" The woman stated, as she walked in the room which she just came from.

"But…, that means Mashiro never existed…, so I am alone again!" Talia stated and was about to cry.

"…. Maybe not, there are some kids of your age on the way, who are to guard you and your mother for a while, I bet they would love to be your friends!" I stated, at least I hoped so.

"Really?!" She asked me with those tears in her eyes.

"Great Toad-warrior-Promise!" I stated with an honest voice.

"I…, I guess I can wait then!" Talia stated drying her tears, sniffling but stood strong and with a dignified aura.

"Well I have no return order after passing on the message, so I might as well stay here until Bolt and the others are coming, and if you really insist, I can take on my cat-form if you want!" I stated defeated, I just couldn´t see this poor girl crying anymore.

To say her face lighted up was an understatement, the smile she showed me, was almost as large as her face was.

"Thank you!" She stated with small tears of joy and I chuckled.

"Anyways I got to pass on the message, so would you please excuse me for a while, after I am done I will come to see you, I promise!" I stated and she nodded.

"Alright then, let´s get this done!" I stated, as Lady Shion led me in her room.

"So as I told you Naruto-sama send me here to pass on an important message, he has received your letter as you might can imagine.

He created a huge Three-group-team, which is already on their way down here, as much as I know is a part of them going to stay here to defend the town, in case of an attack, the rest shall be split in a Search-party and an Exorcist-troop to exterminate the released Demons.

Their Backup is waiting near the borders in case they need it!" I explained as soon as we were alone.

"I see, and what about the price?!" Lady Shion asked me.

"He gives you a special prize, only half of the price for a normal A-rank Mission, however, instead of the other half Naruto-sama only wishes for your cooperation, to secure the surrounding lands and he ordered me to ask you for giving him support with your Clairvoyance-abilities, in order to prevent future attacks.

That would be all he asks of you, the mission will be mainly a duty of friendship!" I explained.

"I see, well of course I can do that much for him, but is he coming too?!" Lady Shion asked, almost hopeful.

"Unfortunately he can´t come here for the time being, we only survived a Supernatural attack yesterday evening, which went by a hairs breed, past a disaster, half of the town had fallen into coma for an entire Night.

Even now are some still not awoken, also have a few people and animals died that night, now he´s of course busy with securing the Villages around as well as the Town.

I can tell that he is really busy but he told me to excuse him towards you and give you this Letter as well!" I stated, as I took the scroll out of my backpack, and made it bigger.

That was all my message contained!" I explained.

"I see…, well I thank you dearly for you effort, I will, ask my maids to bring you all you want…!" Lady Shion stated but I brushed it off.

"No need to bother with that, I will catch my food by myself, alone the sight of what I eat usually, would bring the strongest man to vomit it´s guts out, so no fear I am cared of.

But I still have a promise to fulfil towards your Daughter!" I stated and she nodded.

"Very well, as you wish, my dear Gamatech-san, if you go down the corridor and turn left, you find my daughters room.

However, I advise you to better turn into a cat, I don't think that my Chef will be giving up so easily, on catching his fried frog-legs!" She explained and I nodded while gulping in true terror.

"Will remember that, anyways I will be on my way then, it was nice to make your Acquaintance, Lady Shion!" I stated and she bowed same as I did, before transforming back into the Cat Mashiro and walking out of the door she opened for me.

"Well then, let´s make a little girl smiling!" I stated, as I was on my way to have fun with Talia.

I had no Idea, that this girl would soon need all the support I could offer.

Shion`s Pov:

I sighed, as I closed the door behind the speaking Toad, a sight to be remembered for sure.

Little I was disappointed, that I was not able to meet with Naruto, but I knew he was a busy man, and it would be presumptuous of me to insist on his presence, in such a time like this.

He was the leader of a Large Town and of a mighty military Nation, of course he did anything in his powers to help those in need and I knew that this was anything but easy, I know this very well myself.

I sat myself on my desk and looked at the letter in my hands.

I gulped and took a big breath before I opened the envelope, instantly I recognized Naruto´s rash but still skilful script art.

"Dear Shion, it has been a long time since I last heard of you and I was as happy as well as worried about your letter.

Of course I will help you the best way I can, however as my messenger Gamatech might have told you, am I unfortunately, for the time being, not able to come down myself.

Instead I send you my son and his teammates, alongside many of my top Jonin, and believe me when I tell you, that they are prodigies in every bit of their abilities.

They are strong and have a strong sense for justice, I am sure that they will surely be able to defend your family and Townspeople, as best as an impenetrable Shield.

Of course have I also created two troops which each will take upon different tasks, one will search for Sasaki throughout the land, I have some of my best scouts with them, also I have mighty and world renowned Exorcists and seal-crafters out of my own Clan which will deal with the demons who have been released, and I bet they can also deal with Mōryō if necessary.

They will set everything they´ve got against him, if he shall appear, so have no fear.

Still if things would go over their head, I will be there in an instant to help out, so have no fear, for you are in the best hands.

We surely will get a hold of this situation and I ensure you they will find Sasaki, however I cannot guarantee you that he will be unharmed, between his disappearance and your letter´s arrival has just too much time passed to be sure of his state.

I am sorry, that I cannot be personally there for you in this dark hour, but know that my thoughts are always with you.

In Hope of being able to ease your frighten heart even a little, sincerely, Naruto Uzumaki, 7th Hokage of Konohagakure no Sato.

Ps: Tell your daughter that she soon will get some new friends from me!" I read Naruto´s letter and I was glad, even though it drove the tears in my eyes.

Of course I knew that he could not promise me that Sasaki might be found unharmed, he was right, during the time between Sasaki´s disappearance and my letter which reached Naruto, have already two weeks passed, who knows what has happened in that time.

Also I had no idea how long Naruto´s troops will need to arrive here.

I was grateful enough, that he even decided to send me help, when his Town was attacked only Yesterday night, it was more I could ask from him.

"I should at least make sure to know what might await them, to warn them, that's the most and the best, which I can do for them myself!" I thought, as I looked out of the window again.

"Sasaki…, just where are you…, are you alright, please…, come back to me!" I thought as my heart cramped.

"Talia needs you…, I need you…, our folk needs you…., please come back to me!" I cried, as I sank down on my knees.

"Mother, please give me strength to overcome this trial!" I prayed, as I succumbed to my tears.

Little I knew, that I soon was about to experience the entire cruelty, which this world had to offer to us humans, even more to me.

Part VI: Mission in the Land of Demons/ Part two: Friends, dark Past, a Melon-Drama-love-story.

Part 1, Introduction of the new friends and a lesson of earthen-history, Bolt:

The flight towards the land of Demons, on either Neherit´s or Rughian's back, after they transformed into their Animal-forms in Titanic size, was mostly uneventful.

Even though we flew with so many great personalities, like The Fourth Hokage and Lord Ashina Uzumaki, the last Leader of the Clan, who officially passed the leadership of the Clan towards my father, after Shigure declined that status.

Even though he has the born right, as the eldest of the last 3 truly living Uzumaki elders, he stated that my Father would be a far better Leader, for he had experience in it, due to being the Hokage.

Maybe he was right, Dad was a good leader and even Karin-san said so.

While the adults were speaking about politics and the last few years, we teenagers sat together and discussed our very own problems.

First of all the integration of Uncle Neji and Akihito Hozumaki into our clique.

"Well then, let´s start with you both introducing yourself to us, tell us a bit about you guys, what you like, what you dislike, your hobbies, stuff like this!" I said and they nodded.

"Well then, I shall begin, my name is Neji Hyuuga, and apparently this is my second Life, so to say my second chance to make things right.

I was a Genin Comrade and friend of most of your Parents.

I am 16 years old, which is the age to the time as I died during the 4th Ninja World War.

I shielded my Cousin Hinata from getting pierced to death, in order for her and Naruto to survive, to have a future, in order for them to fulfil Naruto´s promise…, to change the Hyuuga-Clan when Naruto manages to become Hokage.

Well as you now know, I was resurrected from the death by Neherit for about one year only this morning…, however my mother asked Neherit if it was possible to let me live a little longer, and so he connected my soul to her, which means that as long as neither of us dies for one year, I am able to overcome death.

Which means that you guys might have to deal with me for a long while!" Uncle Neji stated and we nodded with chuckles, mostly Salia.

"Anyways it´s kinda awkward to speak with the Children of my Friends like peers, so I hope you forgive me, when I mess some things up, the whole situation is still very strange to me, but I will do my best to master this new situation and be a friend to you, so please just call me Neji, alright?!" Neji stated with a cheerful smile.

"Sure thing, Neji!" Chouchou stated.

"So tell me, how it feels to be a resurrected?!" She asked him.

"Not different as being normally alive, only with the knowing that if you die you will never have a chance to ever be reborn anymore!" Neji stated and we gulped, Sarin looked to the ground drown in her own thoughts and fears.

"Well we will surely defend you as best as we can, we won´t let you die!" I said and everybody nodded.

"Thanks guys, so where was I, ah yeah, my hobby is meditating and training.

I like to eat soba and dislike pumpkins with a passion, I dislike to be remembered on the unglamorous loss I once had against Naruto, still I also like to remember what he taught me through the same, that one's destiny is never fully carved in stone!" Neji explained to us.

"I see, well then, next is Akihito, tell us some things about you!" I demanded and he nodded.

"Alright, here we go…, i´m still a little nervous so forgive me my stammering, anyways, hello…, i´m Akihito Hozuki-Uzumaki, you also can call it Hozumaki if you like…., what more…, ah yeah, i´m 16 years old and my parents are Suigetsu Hozuki and Karin Uzumaki.

My hobbies are the collecting of ancient items, with a mysterious background, mainly things found in old ruins of ancient times.

I like to swim and the water in general, also I like the reconstruction of animal skeleton for my collection!" Akihito stated and the girls were shocked, while I was rather fascinated.

"You reconstruct Skeletons of animals?!" I asked and he nodded.

"But due to have lived a nomad life for almost all of my live, I haven't even really started to build up my collection, I've got only around 10 skeletons complete, connected through metal-glue and cleaned from all dirt!" He explained.

"Well that sure sounds…., interesting!" Sarada stated and Senpou nodded weakly.

"Yeah quite…, interesting!" Salia and Sarin nodded.

They were disgusted, it was written all over their faces, it was sheer impossible not to notice the sarcasm behind their words and the truth behind their false smiles, and still they tried to force a smile on their face.

"That´s just so sick!" Chouchou, the girl who never minced her words, stated her disgust in all the glory of the female sense.

"I…, I see i´m sorry for bringing it up, but you know, I rather found it interesting, someday some animals might be extinct, so it would be nice to preserve the knowledge about them for the future generations, but yeah maybe it´s only obscure and disgusting to girls…, i´m sorry for bringing it up!" Akihito stated letting his head hanging.

"I don´t think so, I find it fascinating, I for myself got a collection of Animal Skeletons myself, also isn´t collecting skeletons of Animals, so obscure as you might think.

Indeed it existed, in the old era, long before the shinobi era, institutions, called History-Museums, maybe you know what this is from the museums in the present time, anyways, in these buildings they had large exhibitions of Animal bones, Skeletons and even reconstructions made after the possible look of these animals.

They were mostly of long extinct races, but they also had many books and texts about the History of the planet from Millions of years ago, the era of the Dinosaurs, from it´s possible begin towards theories about their end.

They had made researches about the origin of Humanity, which they found out through technology and deep research.

They showed the knowledge they gained, in these exhibitions and so freely, to the public!" We heard a loud voice.

"Tir-Ehen?!" Sarin asked dumbfounded.

"Well I use my Skeletons mostly for my Puppet-play Jutsus, but if I wanted I could also show them for exhibition, still, it lasted 50 years for me to find all the pieces for entire Skeletons, it's not at all easy, more very rarely, that an whole and intact Skeleton of a prehistoric Animal, mostly the large predators, can be found!" Neherit explained to us.

"So you too, that´s awesome…, please would you mind telling me, what do you have for animal-skeleton?" Akihito asked his face lighting up.

"Well I have a Pteranodon, a Triceratops, a Raptor, a Spinosaur, a Stegosaur, a Peliperosaur and a T-rex!" Neherit stated.

"Wait what?!" Chouchou asked totally confused.

"You got Dinosaur skeletons, I read those names in a book I once found in an Old ruin, it was a wonder that I managed to somehow learn the old language….

I found many books with symbols very much alike, to those we use every day and some had even pictures to describe what is meant, it was very educational, this is surely awesome?!" Akihito asked in awe, his sorrowful mine from before, lighted up in one scond flat, almost like in a flash.

"What are Dinosaurs?!" Chouchou asked confused.

"The Animals of the Pre-historic World, so to say Giant Reptilians, though they are since Millions of years extinct, and they are only to find as fossils anymore, you know, petrified bones!" Neherit explained.

"How come I never heard about such beings, I mean if they existed there should be books about it, right, but I never saw any books about these themes in the Library?!" Sarada asked suspicious.

"Most of the old records are lying deep under the earth's surface in so called Time-Boxes, giant subterranean containments, which were constructed in the old era.

Constructed in order to preserve knowledge and plants as well as other products, natural or not, in order for them to survive a Nuclear Holocaust, Akihito must probably have found ruins of such a Time-box!" Neherit explained and now not only we Kids listened to him, the adults were just as fascinated.

"What´s a Nuclear Holocaust?!" We asked.

"A Nuclear Holocaust is the destruction of the most of the planet through a nuclear disaster.

In the old Era Humanity had the knowledge over a terrific force called Atomic-power…., several Institutions around the globe experimented with materials, which were used in a very complex and life-threating process, to succeed in producing Radioactive material with high enough power.

All in order to turn this power into electrical energy, such as we have it today…., the many big facilities were built around the globe, to enable these peoples who worked there, to do this process and in the end to share electricity with many nations….., all in order to make easy money, as well as rising in new political levels.

But the Nature suffered, where to go with the material that was not needed anymore, since the machines they constructed with the radioactive material, the energy rods, were still, even after having become unable to use, highly radioactive, they had to be conserved and locked away somehow.

However, where they were had been brought, everything was being contaminated, one unfortunate mistake and the whole conserved radioactivity would be unleashed in one go.

One false step in the production or the handling of this danger-material and millions of people could die, if the rest of the material would have detonated as well.

However humanity had not only used it to create Electricity as you might can imagine, but also to create powerfull weapons, able to destroy a whole land if it gets used.

Humans unfortunately have the bad habit of turning practically anything into a weapon, their creativity was almost god-like and a blessing as it is a curse, which soon led to its nearly total annihilation.

But the horror didn´t only laid in the massive detonation of it, but the aftereffect, Nuclear-radiation.

This Radiation and the contamination which it brings, is able to destroy human immune-systems in a few minutes-…., if highly concentrated even in seconds….., it even exists reports of cell-altering and mutations in organic life, which have appeared thanks to this radiation; be it of human, Animal or even in plants.

After some time researchers found out that viral Organisms became stronger, more aggressive and even more resistant against medics, if they were crossbreed with nuclear alteration.

In the end Nuclear Power became more of a curse than a blessing, a curse which easily could killing you, and your entire family and land, in the process, and believe me this is only one of the most horrific after affects.

And the higher the concentration of radioactive contamination, the longer it needs to vanish restlessly.

One time unleashed can´t it be erased on any artificial way, only Nature can do that, and that can last 1.000 years or even 10.000 years, no one knows it.

Fact is that Humanity to that time was as warmongering as today…., of cause they created out of the Nuclear Force, bombs and long range rockets which could kill entire nations, even on the other side of the globe, through the radiation and the impact.

Or they filled them up with radioactive viral organisms, turning them into biological weapons, which got them an even wider scale of contamination, since a virus in a host can easily create a pandemic, and each host is different and can bring forth new mutations to the virus.

This arms race lasted until over 100.000 years ago, as countless conflicts around the globe escalated into a nuclear war, everyone used it, and in less than 4 years Humanity nearly exterminated itself, alongside Nature and it´s countless wonders, Humanity was shortly before the total extinction.

Of course we Edemah Ruh tried to stop these guys, but as I told you before already, did we had to kill everyone with a possibility to activate, produce and advance such weapons…., simply said, everyone with a concrete knowledge about these weapons would have to die.

We would have to kill Millions of Humans, and it was predictable, that as soon as this would have been the case, Humanity would find and turn against us, so as they had done it in an older era already, the so called Witch- and Demon-hunts were still in each of our memories.

The worst case would have been a Nuclear war against us, against Nuclear power even our force was mostly unable to defend us, it was our only weakness.

We had the choice…, letting Humanity kill itself and maybe safe a few good people and ourselves, which we had to guide them later on…., or trying to prevent the war by assassinating all these peoples and maybe being dragged in the crossfire instead, which most likely could escalate in mutual destruction.

In the end, we decide to the first possibility, which was the birth of the First Ark-plan.

A few hundred were saved by having them living on our land, which we closed of the world into a mirror dimension.

Natural products and basic knowledge was preserved, in one of these facilities, by the humans, if some would survive outside the shield, which was highly doubtable.

I told you about, deep under the earth in these large buildings…., but most just weren´t deep enough, as the Nature defended itself, most of them got destroyed and were lost forever.

The Planet was burning and it took bitter revenge on those who hadn´t the luck to be chosen by us, we didn´t cared about rich or poor, or any races…, for us only counted what their hearts were saying.

The rest was maltreated by epidemics, which roamed the world, natural disasters exterminated almost all live and changed the world´s surface dramatically, so much that a whole new world-map had to be created later on, after the greatest part of this chaos was over.

It truly could have been titled as the end of the old world.

The ozone-layer was almost completely broken, through the nuclear radiation and space-radiation, like the sun's magnet-storms, found their ways on our planet easier, which caused reactions with the nuclear power and also with our forces, which still were stuck in most pieces of nature.

This allowed new mutations to see the light of the day, some of them we later called demons, but they soon were extinct by mankind, at least so we thought.

In reality they hid and bided their time, reconstructed their population.

It lasted almost 60.000 years, for the entire planet to actually come down to 1/10 of its original nuclear infestation right after the Holocaust.

Today the radiation is mostly vanished.

My folk, which lived on Gensan no Kuni, helped the humans to recover, after they were brought back out of the save-place.

In a mutual decision, we decided to close away all the files and details about advanced Technology, such about weapons and electricity-production, we wanted humanity to restart from point Zero, a new Era was to come.

But we too had to see that the Creative spirit of Humanity was not able to be hold under chains, but fortunately humanity only invented machines in order to simplify their life, for agriculture and so on.

Weapons weren´t built anymore.

The times of massive World Wars had been over for a very long time, and it only got some minor conflicts between lands, every now and then here and there, which we could rather easily solve.

We stood as their advisors on the Humans side.

Peace started 40.000 years ago and it lasted for about 20.000 years long, but then 20.000 years ago, the Three Titans appeared the first time.

And the times of Peace were over, the War against higher beings had begun!" Neherit told us and us all listened interested but also nervously.

"I guess it was Punishment for the sins of Humanity, the sins we committed, the Planet tested us to find out if we were worthy to keep on living on this planet, for another couple of centuries; it became a ritual so to say.

As you know we and Humanity managed to overcome and end this War, which lasted a millennium to that time, by uniting our forces, and still, too many people, be it our people or of the humans, lost their live back then, and our Planet took a massive damage.

Afterwards, we managed to let humanity prosper, for so long time, the war soon faded into oblivion and legends.

But the three titans broke back out of their prison and once again brought calamity over the world.

Ever since they appeared every 2.000 years, a constant ritual, in which my folk decreased every time, until the state today.

And the ritual is about to begin from anew, I hope this time for the very last time, all we have to do is to survive, for if not, this ritual will be our all end!" Neherit explained to us and we were buff and frighten.

"But why, why are they attacking us and where did they came from?!" Chouchou asked.

"I don´t know, The only one who might know something more about this, is my Grandmother, the elder of the Mezakan Clan, Grandma Chika.

After all is she the only one, who fought in the very first Millennium-War and has survived until today.

Either out of sheer luck or out of extreme determination.

I once asked her how come she lived so much longer than the others, she then first bashed my back head, asked me if I wanted her to die so desperately.

Logically was that never my intention, she sighed and said that she had to make sure, that the prophecy they once made, gets fulfilled and that she didn´t was mistaken back then, that I truly was one of the fated Children of the Legend.

She said that she would do anything, for me to proof that the old prophecy was not, as everyone else of our Clan thinks, a simple tale for kids to make them sleep better at night.

She also said that it was her only way, to make up for having pulled me through all the hardships I had to endure, from since the war broke out until today, that she can one day see me as the Glorious hero, which she always had imagined me to be and in which her husband and Son had believed!" Neherit stated.

"I see, your grandmother is really tough, I would say!" Sarin said.

"Indeed, the toughest woman I know, with iron will she trained me, to become as strong as I am today, and I swore to never let her down again.

Training and working for the same dream helped me for centuries, to forget the pain from the past, I had a goal and until I hadn´t fulfilled it, so I told myself, there was no use, nor any benefit, in feeling depressed over the past.

All I had to do was to keep pushing forward into the future and become strong enough to fight the final fight.

Only if I succeed in my mission, I wanted to allow myself to cry for all the lives that had been lost thanks to me, back then and now, only then, so I hope since 200 years, I am allowed to finally die!" Neherit explained and I shivered.

The self-hatred and the melancholy of his words stabbed through every fibre of my body.

"I see…, well I hope you then decide to live!" I stated sorrowfully, I didn´t wanted him to choose himself such a fate.

"We got to change the damn topic, this is too creepy!" I thought.

"So, how far is it until we approximately arrive?!" I asked.

"In approximately 1 ½ days we should meet up with the Back up support near the border, if we take a break tonight for about 5 hours, then we only have from their point out 1 Day of footway away from our target.

We better walk that rest of the day, or else enemies will probably be warned beforehand.

Also do we have to save our energy, holding up this giant form is not really easy you know!" Neherit explained.

"I see!" I said.

"Anyways, I got to concentrate back on flying, nightfall will come soon, in approximately 4 hours we will go down and set up a camp in the forest!" Neherit explained and we all nodded, before we went back in our own conversations.

Part 2: The Spicy Watermelon-Love story.

Bolt´s Pov:

"Why you…?" We heard it coming from the Adults after some time, it seemed that Suigetsu-san and Karin-san were back at having an argument, they constantly got on each other's throat, it was hardly to imagine them both to be all lovey-dovey with each other.

But I also remembered the pain in Karin-san´s eyes as Suigetsu-san was in coma Yesterday night.

"Hey Akihito-kun?" I asked.

"Yeah, what´s the matter!?" The same looked up from his sketchbook, which he showed Inojin.

"Say, how your parents did came together, I mean, since I know them, they both are constantly fighting with each other!" I stated.

"I honestly got no idea, but Uncle Jugo said that it has been so ever since they met, but since after the war, their relation had been toned down a little.

They do fight often but only for a little while before they stop and feel guilty for it, and even if one of them has enough and leaves, they always are back together at the end of a month at least, sometimes even after 1 or 2 weeks.

I am used to it, they are opposite poles, but they always try to pull themselves together for my sake.

I once asked my mother if I was a nuisance and an unwanted child to her.

She bashed my face black and blue, before falling to her knees crying and holding me in her arms, I was shocked about her outburst.

I was confused but as she calmed down, she said these words to me:

"Yes, you might have come unexpected to us, but I never regretted to give birth to you, nor that you are of all his son.

You are what connects me the most to Suigetsu, but that doesn't mean that you are the only thing, which holds us together, so never think that you are unwanted or only the result of a drunken night, you are not.

I admit, I was lightly drunk that night, and I admit I never, prior to that day, thought that I would ever end up with Suigetsu, but it happened, it happened and it wouldn´t have, if I didn´t even liked Suigetsu a little before.

I also cannot really say, that I ever truly regretted it to end up with him, after all he gave me you, you are his son as you are mine and nothing will change that fact, you are my beloved baby, and Suigetsu is the man who gave me you as a present, a gift made of his deepest feelings for me, and I accepted it with my own deep feelings for him, even if they hadn´t been that clear to me before shortly after that night.

I love Suigetsu, even if it not always looks that way to you…, he is hard to handle and I am sometimes shortly from giving up on even trying to, but I always say myself, that he needs a woman on his side that can take care of him, or else he gets wasted.

I always say to myself, that I would pretty much be the only girl that can ever love, less handle him anyways.

Suigetsu and I, we are like the two Poles of a Magnet, even though we stand on opposite sides, are we still an entity that cannot be broken through!" Akihito told us and I was buff.

"I See!" I stated.

"But honestly, I don´t really know what made them drinking themselves halfway under the table that night in the first place, but i´m grateful to have been born through it!" He said.

"Obviously!" I replied.

"Hey Akihito, do you want to know how they came together?!" Chouchou asked excitedly.

"What do you mean by that, of course I would, but if I ask them, I only get such vague answers?!" Akihito replied.

"No problem, Bolt is able to read in a persons´ blood the past of his/ her parents, until the day of your birth!" Chouchou stated.

"Wait seriously?!" Akihito asked.

"hmm, yeah!" I replied uneasy, I somehow knew it would come down to this.

"Alright how do we do this?!" Akihito, being fire and flames for it, asked with gleaming eyes.

"I need a bit of blood from you, 5 to 10 drops will be fine!" I replied.

"Alright, if that´s all you need, here I go!" he said as he took one of his kunais and cut his finger up.

"This must do!" He said, as he licked his blood from his finger, on which the skin closed itself in seconds.

"How did you….?!" Chouchou asked dumbfounded.

"A Human Body is made to 90% out of water, and we Hozuki´s are able to completely liquefy our bodies and control every bit of water in us, so it´s easy to heal wounds in seconds!" Akihito explained.

"Well that's convenient!" I said and he smiled.

"Alright, here, this is really all you need?!" He asked me as he gave me his bloody handkerchief.

"Yes thank you, now have a bit patience while I read, okay, I will tell you your parent´s past in no time!" I stated and he nodded, and so I concentrated.

"Here we go!" I said, as I took a deep breath and activated my Nikkogan.

I dived, as so many times before, into the memories of Akihito´s parents, and I found myself on a Clearing in a forest.

Under me I saw Karin-san walking with an accelerated pace, ranting over something.

"THIS DICKHEAD, HOW DARE HIM TO MAKE SUCH A FOOL OUT OF ME, I SWEAR I HATE HIM SO MUCH!" She shouted her rage out.

"WHY DO I EVEN HAVE TO DEAL WITH HIM, LESS STAY IN HIS SURROUNDING, WHY DOES IT EVEN BOTHERS ME SO MUCH?!" She shouted, as she sat herself on a stump.

"Geez of course I know the reason…, I cannot leave these two alone, if I do, they will just keep on getting in trouble, also am I the only one, whit whom Suigetsu can hold Jugo in check if he´s on a rampage.

Someone has to keep an eye on these guys, ever since Sasuke vanished without a glance back, leaving us on this Battlefield, Jugo tries to lead us towards Konohagakure and perhaps so also right into the devil´s den.

Sasuke…, yeah I was totally over him, after all he left us there, like broken tools, maybe that was all we ever were to him from the beginning, tools…., not that I didn´t knew this already.

Still I thought that the time we spent together, meant at least a little to him, but having to realize our unimportance to him this way, was not really what I expected.

Of course we couldn´t stay there, on this field of corpses, I saw the hatred in the peoples' eyes directed towards us, thought if I shall be honest, we hadn´t deserved it any better!" I heard what Karin-san thought.

"My time by Orochimaru got me the hatred of numerous peoples, be it ex-prisoners of him, or their acquaintances.

Also did we helped this Madara to even unleash this war, so we were indirect responsible for so many deaths, that it was predictable, that we would be hunted and maybe someday be murdered, by a large raid.

We deserved it, and still I wanted to live, I wanted to have a future and perhaps children, but we would always be on the run, I knew that much!" She thought and I was shocked…, still I think, little I always knew, that this woman was not without dirt on her west.

"To Orochimaru we didn´t wanted to go anymore, mostly Suigetsu and Jugo, for they didn´t felt any allegiance to him anymore or at all.

Suigetsu was the one who was the most afraid of that idea, he feared to just again being enclosed in a water-tube, and let´s be honest, even as annoying as he was, I didn´t wanted to do that to him.

I hated his ways and attitude most of the time, still, there was something which always kept me in his surrounding, not only this observance-mission which I set to myself!" Karin-san thought and sighed as she pulled her legs up on the stump and laid her head on her knees.

I could see that her thoughts spiralled between insecurity and loneliness, a little I was sorry for her, but she was right, maybe she deserved some of the things she had to encounter, but wasn´t I one to judge her, I barely knew her anyways.

"Somehow I just didn´t wanted to be separated to them, if I do, I will be lonely anyways, where would I go, would I even be able to survive alone…, hardly, I guess.

I had no where I could hide and alone it was sure to be hard…,, I didn´t wanted to be alone anymore, ever since my father died in the flames of that day and mom after being maltreated to death, I was alone, I thought I had found someone who cares, as I met Orochimaru…, but let´s be honest, even he has just used me for his dirty work.

I didn´t wanted to be alone anymore, and even if I didn´t know to which lengths I could trust them both, I didn´t wanted to be separated to them, for they were the only one who might actually need me…, was this what they call `fellowship´…, or maybe it were only feelings of complicity.

I didn´t knew what it was, but fact was that simply neither of them, not even myself, wanted to return back to Orochimaru.

Perhaps we would just load even more debt on our shoulders, I had enough, I wanted to stop killing people without a real purpose and reason.

And if I had children, I wanted to stop completely, I wanted to settle down somewhere, somewhere where no one can find us, where we can live until we are old and die in peace!" Karin-san stated as she looked up in the sky.

"I had no idea what would happen to Suigetsu and Jugo, if that case of me being able to start a family, ever would occur…, but seriously, who would even dare to love me, I was a murder and accomplice of a mad scientist and a group of terrorists.

I was the lowest bit of scum, I knew that, and still I wished to be able to someday redeem for my sins in a peaceful non suicidal way…, I knew this was a bit too big for a wish, compared for what I have done all this time.

If I shall be honest, my life had been fucked up ever since that day as Uzushiogakure was destroyed by this fire dragon, I will never forget these hours of sheer terror and to have to witness how my dad died in the flames, they have forever been burnt into my soul.

The later years, after that day we travelled and thought to have found a secure place and a bit of peace in Kusagakure, but as we soon had to know, were we only slaves to them.

Day in day out my mother had to heal their soldiers, by letting them bite her, in the end she died, regretting to not have listened to the other survivors and go with them towards Konohagakure.

I had to see how she slowly died on the inside and even as painful as it was to me, I thought that death was the best that happened to her, it was her salvation, from a life of being used as a healing-bag.

But of course I had the same ability as my mother, so it was self-evident that they used me as her replacement, over years I was bitten and touched by various men, at some point I even got raped by them for their fun.

I was violated in various ways, the scars will never vanish, I cried all the tears I could during these years and I longed to kill these people, in the end I somehow managed to flee.

I ran away, always hid myself from the world, living from what the forest and the villages gave me, I stole and robbed people in order to be able to survive.

But I was nowhere safe, one day I was caught and they wanted to sell me like a slave, but then Orochimaru came and killed these people, I thought I was finally saved…, but was I truly.

I often, after the war, asked me what would have happened if I wouldn´t have reached out for his hand…, maybe I would have survived until today, without unpayable sins; or maybe I would have died alone and forgotten somewhere between dirt and garbage.

But fact was, I took the hand reached out to me, the Hand of the Snake.

In the first years I just did the very same as back in Kusagakure, healing people, letting me being touched.

Only at the age of 16 I finally was able to break out of this devil-circle, I finally achieved what I always wanted, independency, I finally had my life, my honour back, so I thought…, but in reality, I was a slave, a slave of evil, with nowhere else to go, I stayed because it was the only thing that gave my life a purpose.

But what has it given to me, even now I was on the run, away from my dark past.

I fucked up my entire life, my entire future, ever since that one day as I met him, Orochimaru, and as I decided to go with him, because he saved me from these bastards!" Karin-san thought, as tears streamed over her eyes.

"No one will ever understand me…, no one will ever love me, the way I wanted to be loved once before!" She mumbled, as her head fell back on her knees.

She sighed as she watched the forest before us, she used her forces to determine the presence of animals, dangerous or not, and of her comrades who sat several hundred meters away, on their camp, the night had fallen already and she knew it was not really safe to be separated by them.

"Jugo could always get one of his rage-attacks.

Yeah…., as long as i´m with these guys, I will never get a man…, but I cannot leave them alone, Suigetsu alone cannot keep him in check, he needs me…,, and even without Jugo, where would he go, he was like me a wanted criminal.

He need my help…, and I need his…, I need him!

Well fuck, that sounds awful…, Suigetsu…, needing me…but on the other hand it also sounded a little bit comforting…., at least they needed me.

Even if I was hated by the whole world, I wanted at least one person who actually needed me, who showed me real kindness, who cared about me, if I have that person I could bear the strength to go on.

If not I might as well die, no one would care anyways.

Still if I really wanted kids, or at least sexual relieve from the tension, which had boiled itself up inside of me, I could as well just let me being satisfied by one of them…., it would not mean anything special…., right, it´s just to serve as a valve for our carnal urges…., still, who would come into consideration?

Jugo definitely not, what if he suddenly has an attack during sex, I would be dead…, also I didn´t wanted my children, if I actually receive some of them, to be psychologically unstable, I wanted normal children, no ticking time bombs.

And Suigetsu…., well I won´t even really think about that…, I mean, can he even have sex with that liquefying body, what if he accidently sprays more into me as he intended…, and what if I get pregnant…, would he be even happy to have kids with me, or…?

Would they be as weird as him…, would he actually even want to have sex with me?

Argh, what the hell am I even thinking, it´s so impossible that I would ever fall for that stupid A**hole, less go in more than a purely sexual relationship.

….Maybe I am only desperate for a man, because Sasuke is so out of reach for me, no that he need me anyways, and no other man was able to be found…., still I could not trust anyone, but them both…., one wrong step and I not only throw myself in danger, but Suigetsu and Jugo as well, I could not do this to them!" Karin-san thought.

However she was in such deep thoughts that she forgot to observe her surroundings.

She saw too late, how a big shadow emerged over her, she slowly turned around.

"Hmm, what's that?!" She asked, as suddenly a big bear appeared in her sight.

"Oh shit!"

Before she really could react, the bears´ big claw ripped up her upper torso, the shock was so harsh that she could not even defend her, less think anything logical anymore, all she could feel and think about was the death, who had reached out his claws to grab her and drag her to hell.

Just as back then, as she met Sasuke the first time, only with the difference that this time no Sasuke would be there to save her.

In all her anguish all she could do, was to only scream in pain.

"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!" She screamed in terror and pain, as she was thrown through the air on a nearby tree.

She crashed hard with the head against its trunk and was about to lose consciousness, as she came down on the ground, she hadn´t even the force to raise her arm to heal her wounds.

"Will I die now, is this my prize to pay for everything I've done so far…., well I guess this is just what I deserve, to die the same way as it had begun, threaten by a giant bear…., the only difference is that this time no Sasuke, no one, will come to save me, for no one cares.

It´s highly doubtable that one of them would come, i´m not so important to them, especially to Suigetsu, I am but only a nuisance to him anyways…, why would he make the effort to save someone like me, and still, it was fun to be together with them…, Jugo, Suigetsu…, i´m sorry!" Karin-san stated weakly before losing consciousness.

"Karin, what´s the….., oooh shit!" Suigetsu-san, who suddenly appeared, shouted and instantly went before her as shield as the Bear approached her again.

"Jugo, quick!" Suigetsu-san shouted.

"It´s killing time!" The same shouted madly, while transforming in his second Juin-form, throwing the giant bear through the air deep into the forest.

"No fear I got this!" Jugo-san stated smirking before he rushed after the Bear.

"Dammit, let´s get out of here, I can´t deal with him, if it´s only me…, he has gotten a lot stronger than to the time as we released him out of his cell!" Suigetsu-san stated, as he pulled Karin-san up and carried her bridal style, before running away with her in his arms.

"haaah, haaaaa, never, urrrhg…, thought.., that you ever…, aaaarrrggghh…, would come…., uuuh.., to save me…, less to carry me…, aaaaaarrrgggghhhh…., like a princess!" Karin-san tried, under massive pain, to joke and smile.

"Don´t speak, save your breath, I got to find a safe place to heal you!" Suigetsu-san stated.

"You…, Aaaaah…., can heal me?!" She asked doubtingly.

"As long as it aren´t severed limbs, or smashed organs, I can heal everything, since the body if´s made of 90% of water, I only have to use my Suika no jutsu and transfer it to you, by using water to fill up and repair the cells.

No fear, in a few hours you will look as beautiful as before!" Suigetsu-san stated, before gasping in shock.

"Uhmm…, I-I-I…!" Suigetsu-san stammered, while blushing.

"Thanks a lot for this compliment…, water-boy!" Karin-san smiled weakly.

"Geeez…, thanks a lot for going over from asshole to water-boy!" Suigetsu-san stated, as he ran as fast as he could, while looking around.

"Hmm, this should be good enough!" Suigetsu-san stated as he spotted a den.

"Here we can stay!" He said as he laid Karin-san down, checked the inside, before coming back and carried her inside.

"And how…, urgh…, do you…., do this now?!" Karin-san asked doubtingly.

"Wait a second, be strong this might sting a bit now!" He replied as he took out a strange salve and put it, as gentle as possible, on the wounds in Karin´s face, and from there downwards, before he apprubtly stopped.

"Dammit…., uhmm Karin…., I got to strip you naked above…, if I want to put on the salve…., is that okay with you?!" Suigetsu-san asked blushing deep red.

"Just …, do it, there´s nothing for me to be a shamed of anyways…., too many people saw me naked before I met you guys…., more than I want to count!" Karin-san snarled, before hissing in pain, as Suigetsu-san stripped her gently naked till her jeans.

She had some nasty big wounds across her stomach, and even her chest was wounded same as her face, they were quite deep.

"Alright, this might hurt now and it might be uncomfortable for you but please bear with it okay?!" Suigetsu-san stated, as he gently put the salve on the over wound, before taking out a scroll and made its content appear, out of the smoke-cloud came a little box with various medical tools.

He took some herbs and some powder and put some of it over his own body, then he gently pulled Karin-san up to him until she laid upon him, facing the ceiling.

"What are you doing?!" She asked him embarrassed but still in deep pain.

But before she could speak more, he suddenly liquefied himself and let her sinking completely into himself, beside of her mouth, nose and eye, which he let free to see and breathe, together with the herbs and the powders, which merged with the water and began to work their magic as he filled Chakra inside

"Luckily it´s raining!" He said as he spread his water-like legs to catch the rainwater from outside, while filtering the dirt out.

"This way I cannot dry out during this!" he explained to Karin-san.

"I see…, thanks, Sui….!" Karin-san stammered.

"How does it feel…, this actually is the first time, I had to do that on such a large scale…., usually I just used it to close the wounds of my senseis, back in my days as Disciple of the seven Swordsman of Kirigakure!" Suigetsu-san rambled to overplay the awkwardness of the whole situation.

"It feels cold and wet…, but not as uncomfortable as I thought!" Karin-san replied blushing, as she was better than before, the wounds closed millimetre for millimetre.

"No fear I catch your blood, filtering it and bring it back in your body, just trust me, you got nothing to fear, I won't do anything inappropriate!" he explained with gentle soothing voice.

" I …, do…, Zzzzzzz!" Suddenly she was fast asleep, be it due to all the stress or due to Suigetsu-san´s gentle healing.

"Hehehe….., never thought you would ever fall asleep, when I embrace you!" Suigetsu-san snickered, as he suddenly created an arm out of the water and used it to stroke the locks of her red hair out of her face, he took a strain and sniffed on it, inhaling her scent.

"They still smell like flowers…, I can never get enough of it…, i´m sorry that you have to always suffer so much, I wish I could be there for you, instead of just be a nuisance to you!" Suigetsu-san whispered.

The hours passed, while Karin´s wounds closed themselves.

"You know…, I really meant when I said that you´re beautiful… I admit, you can be a real pain in the butt and a real pest…, but honestly I would never want to miss you…, things are just boring without you, you know…, geez but what I am saying.

It´s not as if you would ever understand my feelings for you…, after all I don´t understand them myself….!

By the way…., i´m sorry for making fun of your bite-marks…, we all have our package of dark memories to carry….., I should know that.

But if I can do anything to help you, if I can make you feel better somehow…., then tell me!" Suigetsu-san whispered after a while, as he stroke with a gentle touch over Karin´s face.

"Make them go away…, these scars of my dark past!" Her gentle voice suddenly whispered.

"Whoa you were awake!?" Suigetsu-san asked blushing deep red.

"Yeah…, sorry about that, I just lost consciousness for a little while, as I woke back up, I felt how you played with my hair, but I had no force to tell you to stop.

But honestly it felt good.., I didn´t wanted you to stop, it has been years since someone actually gently played with my hair, less touched me without the intent to just bite me for my force.

And then I heard your words…, I was happy!" Karin-san explained with little droplets in her eyes, tears of thankfulness.

Useless to say that Suigetsu-san heated up from blushing.

"You are getting warmer…, are you embarrassed or did you just peed?!" Karin-san asked disgusted all of a sudden.

"Of course I am embarrassed, how could I not be embarrassed if you say such sweet things, with that suddenly so gentle voice of you, it sounds far more different as when you speak normally with me.

Also, just for your information, I never pee in liquefied state, I do it like every normal person too, what you thought right now is just disgusting!" Suigetsu-san shouted in enragement and disgust.

"Who the hell you think I am..…, geeez I should just had kept my mouth shut!" he stated weakly.

"I preach this to you all the time, but would you ever listen to me…, well your bad, that I heard it!" Karin-san chuckled.

"But what did you mean that I should erase your scars of the past?!" Suigetsu-san asked curious, changing the topic.

"The Bite-marks.., can you make them go away…, no matter how often I tried myself, they are the only wounds I can´t heal.

I made up my mind I will forget the past and only live for the future anymore, but as long as these scars remain, I can never be free from it…, also I will never find a man with them!" Karin stated, the scars of the bear attack almost completely vanished.

"Sure of course I can…, then let me help you erase your past and live with me in the future instead!" Suigetsu-san stated as his liquefied body enveloped Karin-san´s body and even invaded her jeans, to take care of the Bite marks on her legs.

"It feels really strange!" She said, blushing.

"Well for the first time I guess it does, however it also feels strange to have someone in my body!" Suigetsu-san countered.

"…. Well, let´s speak about your feelings for me!" Karin-san-stated, with a sinister smile.

"Yeah, yeah I know, I should just shut up, go fuck myself and die, I got it already!" Suigetsu-san stated with narrowed eyes and a blush.

"Actually…, I was about to say that I thank you for them and that I just wanted to ask you…, if you are sure, I mean you know how I am, I have pretty high standards…, even if they might never be fulfilled and I am hardly considered as easy to handle.

Can you really bear to be near me, even if we might fight everyday just as before?!" She asked with narrowed eyes as well.

"If I am sure, well…, as I said, I don´t really understand my feelings by myself, I don´t know for I never felt something like this, but I am sure that I can handle you.

I mean we constantly bitched and fought before, we never could get along and you always smashed my head to pieces, and still, I kinda enjoyed it…!" Suigetsu-san explained but was interrupted by Karin-san.

"You are really masochistic you know!" She stated with a deadpanned expression.

"I was not done.., ahem…, well I enjoyed it…, because it meant, that I would mean enough to you for you to always argue with me, instead of simply ignoring me, which made me happy.

Back in my childhood, I had practically no one to feel infatuated to, I was an orphan from the street, the only person I had, which was close to me, was my brother, Mangetsu.

I never was in love before, and I hadn´t much contact to other kids of my age after I trained for getting stronger.

Nor did anybody wanted to be close to me anyways, I was known as the reincarnation of Zabuza Momochi after all, same as my brother.

Murdering and assassinating were my job, of course no one would have ever been able to love me the way I was.

I was glad as, after the war, you decided to rather stay with us, than to run after Sasuke…, may I assume that his ship has sailed off for good?!" Suigetsu-san asked as, Karin´s scars, inclusive to her bite-marks, were all vanished and she was back able to stand up.

She sat herself next to him, as he went back to his usual shape, while drinking from his water-bottle.

"I figured out that he was out of reach, he went back to Konoha without a second glance.

And in Konoha only a prison-cell would wait for me, also I couldn´t possibly let you guys alone, if I do, who´s gonna save the people around, if you cannot get Jugo under control when he rampages!" Karin-san stated.

"Yeah you probably got a point there!" Suigetsu-san nodded sweat-dropping.

"You guys need me…., and I need you guys…, I don´t want to be lonely anymore, there was no other choice but following you, and the way I am…, who would actually ever love me anyways?!" Karin-san asked him, sulking.

"I would, I told you, you can be a real nuisance, but I wouldn´t want to travel without you…, I need you…, without you everything is boring.

I need someone I can argue with, who does not instantly runs off crying, if I might go overboard once, and never comes back.

Jugo is cool and all, but honestly, he is always too calm, and when he´s pissed he destroys everything in sight, and as you rightly said, I cannot always keep him in check…, guess you´re right, I need you as much as you me!" Suigetsu-san explained.

"Yeah seems so!" Karin´s said.

Suddenly steps were to hear outside, both switched in defence mode.

"Guys it´s me, we gonna have a feast tonight!" no one else but Jugo, walking in with their belonging as well as a dead bear.

"Grilled bear, never got that one before!" Suigetsu-san stated with a sinister smile.

"I hope you can bear the rich flavour of it…, if you know what I mean!" He joked and even Karin chuckled, before blushing and clearing her throat.

"Well then, let´s get this thing `Well Done´!" Suigetsu-san stated as he stood up and in the same moment whispered to Karin.

"By the way, you do are smoking hot, but you better put on some clothes…, or else Jugo run´s into the danger of being tempted to violate you…, but if you are desperate, I can do it for you just as well!" he grinned evilly.

Karin-san only looked confused, while Suigetsu-san´s eyes wandered down her body.

"Gasp…., SUIGETSU!" Karin-san screamed, as she finally processed that she still was half naked.

"I will go search for wood!" The same ran out of the den, laughing.

The scene changed, we seemed to be in a forest a few months later.

"Geez you just had to activate their trap didn´t you!" Karin-san asked Suigetsu-san, as both were trapped, a strange and powerful chakra stealing knife on Karin-san´s throat, Jugo was out like a light, being poisoned.

"Yeah well sorry about that, how would I have known that there was such a trap!" Suigetsu-san asked in embarrassment.

"There is a large sum as reward for your guys head, your bad that it has been our trap!" the leader of the criminal group stated while grinning madly.

"If only I had my sword, you wouldn´t dare to speak this way!" Suigetsu-san stated through grit teethes.

"What was that, talking back you brat?!" The leader asked as he punched into Suigetsu-san´s face, but different as normally, the punch hit its aim.

He couldn't do anything, if he liquefied, he would run into danger of letting them kill Karin-san.

"Suigetsu?!" Karin-san asked shocked.

"No fear Honey, i´m okay!" Suigetsu-san stated, as he spit the blood, before the shoes of the Leader of the group.

"Yeah don´t be so worried about your little friend, you should rather worry about yourself…, my men haven't seen a nice woman like you in months..!

And it´s hard to keep one´s sexual urge under control…., mmmhhhmmmm…., when such wonderful fresh meat is presented on a silver-plate!" The Gang leader smirked, as he hurtfully grabbed Karin-san´s face and licked with his tongue over her cheeks and sniffed her hair.

"You smell good, I bet you taste even better!" he said as he ripped Karin-san´s top apart, revealing her bra which he ripped off.

"What a marvellous body!" He laughed, as he was inches before fondling her large breasts.

"How dare you, you bastard!" Suigetsu-san shouted in pure wrath, he tried to rip himself of his restrains, as the man hurtfully grabbed Karin-san's breast and played with them, before the eyes of Suigetsu-san.

"Aaaah…, nooo…, please don't…, don´t hurt me!" Karin shouted, as suddenly memories of her childhood in Kusagakure rose from the depths of her memories

He smirked, and sucked on her nipple, while still holding the Knife at her throat, threating to kill her.

"I will rape you nice and slowly, you will wish that I never take my dick back out of you!" The man stated while he liked her cheeks and kissed her forcefully.

Karin-san had no force to defend herself anymore, as the traumata from the past haunted her mind and all she could do was crying, in pain, embarrassment, mental anguish and shame.

"STOP IT YOU ASSHOLE!" Suigetsu-san screamed as loud as he could, his wrath barely containable.

"Be silent!" One of the men shouted, as he tried to slay the hilt of his katana on Suigetsu-san´s head who liquefied it´s body instantly and, killed the man with a headshot.

"So it´s true you actually can liquefy your body, just as the Bingo-book says, but we also know your weakness, men, do it!" The Leader shouted, as some men surrounded Suigetsu-san and pointed some strange machines at him, resembling guns.

"You think bullets are going to help you?!" Suigetsu-san shouted.

"Oh these aren´t filled with Bullets…, fire!" the Leader shouted in glee, as his men pulled the trigger.

Out of the gun-like devices massive raiton-lightnings streamed out and stroke Suigetsu-san, who could only scream in pain.

"AAAAAAAAAHHHHH!" The same screamed in anguish.

"SUIGETSU!" Karin-san screamed in psychical anguish, as she saw her boyfriend being maltreated like this.

"Shut up woman…., you should put that mouth to better use!" The leader shouted, as he unzipped his pants and took out his dick and was about to stick it in, of course Karin-san kept her mouth shut.

"Oh believe me you will open that cute mouth of you very soon, i´m gonna stuff you so full you will never be able to take another dick anymore!" The leader stated as he pinched her nose closed, forcing her to open her mouth in order to breathe.

"Ha!" the Leader shouted, as he was inches about to stick his dick in.

"Only over my dead body!" Suigetsu-san screamed, as suddenly an electrified water bullet came flying and shot the leader´s dick of.

"Aaaaarrrggggh my dick…., you asshole…., how dare you!" the same screamed in sheer agony.

"I won´t…. give in…., if… you think…. I let you…. mistreat… my Girlfriend…. this way…, than you´re… wrong!" Suigetsu-san shouted, as he forced himself to stand back up.

He forced himself to lift his hand and in a brief moment, while the Raiton-guns mostly had to cool down for a half minute, he was able to use a Jutsu.

"Suiton: Junsui no yoroi no jutsu (technique of the pure water Armour)!" He shouted, as he was covered in water.

"You fool!" One of the men stated, as he fired again, but different as before, the electricity had no effect anymore.

"What the…?!" The men asked in shock as they found their weapons to be useless.

"You hurted and humiliated my Girlfriend, the woman I love, don´t you dare thinking I would let you live any second longer!" Suigetsu-san stated with a mad and insane glare.

"Your doom has been sealed!" He said as he used water as blades.

"Ha, as if you stand a chance against us all…, men, get him!" The leader screamed, still bleeding between his legs.

"THIS IS YOUR END!" Suigetsu-san screamed as he rushed forward.

"Kill the woman, kill her!" the man stated as he backed away in fear.

"As if I would let you!" Suigetsu-san shouted as he used another jutsu.

"Suiton: Sen ha no nami no jutsu (Wave of the thousand blades technique)!" Suigetsu-san shouted, as suddenly massive wave emerged out of his own body, merging with him, the wave rushed over his enemies and cut them in pieces staining the water red with their blood.

The wave stopped, as every enemy beside of the Leader was dead and cut to pieces.

"And now to you my friend!" Suigetsu-san stated as he emerged back out of the wave.

He took off his shirt, unrestrained Karin and gave her his shirt.

"Karin would you like to make the final cut?!" Suigetsu-san asked as he gave the knife from before towards his Girlfriend.

"No…, wait…, please wait…, I…!" but before he could say anything else, his own knife was drilled right through his throat.

"What a clean stab!" Suigetsu-san stated in awe and respect and maybe something like a little fear.

"Let´s get out of here!" Karin stated, as she wanted to walk forward, but before she could take a step, she fell to her knees.

"What´s going on…, why doesn´t my body follows my orders, what´s going on?!" She asked as her feet were paralysed.

"Huh, what the…, why am I now crying?!" She stated as tears flew out of her eyes from anew.

"Why am I shivering…, I don´t understand?!" She asked, as she began to hug herself and made herself smaller by sitting down and rocking back and forth.

"What… what´s with me?!" She stated, as she began to hyperventilate, she almost suffocated on her own fears and cries, as she suddenly felt gentle arms around her.

"Calm down Karin…, the danger is over…, I am here, no one will hurt you anymore….., I won´t allow it!" Suigetsu-san stated.

"Can you do that…, can you really save me…., can you really keep me from getting hurt…., answer me?!" Karin shouted in hysteria.

"I WILL…, I WILL AND I WON´T LET ANYONE EVER LAY THEIR HANDS ON YOU AGAIN, I SWEAR, I WILL KEEP YOU FROM BEING HURT IF YOU LET ME.

I WILL SAVE YOU, WHENEVER YOU ARE IN DANGER, AND I WILL BE THE ONLY ONE TO TOUCH YOU, GENTLY, WITH CARE AND WITHOUT HURTING YOU!" Suigetsu-san stated loudly.

"…really?!" Karin-san asked.

"I swear, I vow to you that I will be the only man who ever touches you again, I won´t allow anyone to do such things to you again, I won't let you be hurt or let any man ever mistreat and sexually harass you anymore!" Suigetsu-san stated as he embraced Karin-san and she nodded weakly before embracing him tightly and crying in his shoulder.

"I-i-i…, I was so scared!" She finally stammered as her shaking became stronger.

"I am here, I am here for you and no one´s gonna hurt you anymore!" Suigetsu-san´s soothing voice began to calm her down and he sat there with her until she fell asleep.

"Poor girl, I can´t even imagine what you had to go through, but I swear, this will be my oath to you, as long as I live no other man will ever touch you inappropriately anymore!" Suigetsu-san stated and he held Karin-san close.

"Even if we argue and sometimes hate each other´s guts, you are still the woman I fell in love with, somehow, unexpected, but not unwanted!" he said, as he picked her up and carried her over on a nearby tree, to be able to check on Jugo.

"Hey big boy, you´re okay?" he asked as he shook him.

"Groan…, what happened…, geez, guess I was of no use after all, you really had some fun here!" Jugo-san stated as he woke up and groggily looked around the battlefield, which once has been a normal forest.

"Well they hurted and humiliated Karin-chan, this was the least I could reward them with!" Suigetsu-san only frowned and shrugged his shoulders in an, I-don't-care-at-all manner.

"Well I guess we better get out of here, where these guys are maybe others aren´t so far!" Jugo-san stated.

"Guess you are right, well then, let´s go!" Suigetsu-san said as he picked Karin back up and so both made their way through the forest.

"…., I smell something, I think it´s fire, maybe these guys had a camp somewhere!" He stated after a while of wandering.

"The birds confirm your thoughts, on the next clearing right next to the lake they had built it up!" Jugo-san stated after he spoke with the birds who sat on his shoulders.

"Well guess we should go there, who knows, maybe we find some interesting things and maybe also new clothes.

But it would be better if they got something to eat!" Suigetsu-san stated and so they all made their way to the camp.

"Looks clear!" Jugo-san said as they observed the camp for a while.

"Alright let´s go!" Suigetsu-san stated, as he walked out of the hiding over to the camp.

"Well look at this, they really left a lot back here!" he said as he roamed through the tents.

"Heh, so many things , food, clothes, weapons!" He stated in glee.

"Suigetsu, check this out!" Jugo-san suddenly shouted.

"What´s the matter?!" Suigetsu, who came out of the ten he had laid Karin inside to rest a bit, walked over to his comrade.

"Look a this!" Jugo-san stated as he revealed a horse-carriage, with a full pair of black horses.

"Wow, guess tonight we might not need to sleep in a den, with this thing we can roam the land faster than before!" Suigetsu-san stated.

"Yeah, but what I actually mean is this here!" Jugo stated as he lifted some of the towels which were within the cart.

"How is this possible?" Suigetsu stated in awe.

"Seem like they must have found it on the battlefield, there were a lot of abandoned weapons back there, I bet on the black-market they would surely sell good!" jugo-san stated.

"How can anyone sell this baby, how dare them to use it for such a filthy purpose, as making money…, it was too long, 3 years I searched for it, but couldn´t find it, after it left Zabuza Momochi on the Battlefield of the war.

I only briefly saw it in possession of Kakashi with the Sharingan, the Jonin of Konoha and the sixth Hokage, but afterwards it vanished.

I didn´t know if he took it with him or not, but we had to leave the Battlefield as fast as possible anyways, I had no chance to search for it…, that it finds its way back to me, I didn´t expected, but i´m glad!" Suigetsu-san stated, as he held the mighty broad-sword in his hands, the Blade which was also known as the `severesword´.

"Welcome home, Kubikiribōchō!" He stated as he stroked over the edge of the Blade lovingly.

Before he suddenly clenched his fist around the swords hilt and tears began to flow, he hid his face in one palm while gripping the hilt even tighter.

"If only I had this sword back before, Karin wouldn´t have to be humiliated that way…., I will never forgive these guys!" he said through grit teethes.

"You really care for her, I saw that in the last months too, ever since that Bear attack, can it be…, are you two actually…?"Jugo asked.

"Yeah we are an item, more or less…., it's more a hate-love relationship, or a relationship of Tsundere-types, we can´t get along with each other for all too long, without arguing, but we also don´t want to be separated from each other for too long, it's a devils-circle!" A voice stated behind them

"Karin you are back over the damn!" Suigetsu-san stated happily.

"I am…, but I still can feel that guys hands on my body, and the awful taste of booze and foul teethes in my mouth…, my body got stained and it´s so disgusting, I wish I could get myself a shower!" Karin-san stated.

"Well we got a lake right her, if you want, but if you insist I also can play Onsen again!" Suigetsu-stated.

"I…, guess I rather take the lake, sorry to burst your bubble!" Karin-san stated with a smirk.

"Well i´m here if you need me, me and this baby have some bonding time to retake!" Suigetsu-san stated, as he rose his sword in the air.

"Well look at this, you found your plaything again, where has it been?!" Karin-san asked.

"Believe it or not but it seems that it has been in these guys possession, I bet they wanted to sell it on the black market, anyway I will see to get us some provisions, and prepare the cart to travel further, this vehicle is really convenient, lucky we found it!" Jugo stated and walked over to the cart.

"And I will now take a nice bath, if anyone of you is peeking i´m going to kill you, understood!" Karin-san stated, as she walked away.

"Sure thing, just go on…, ah wait a second, take this one, I bet it will help!" Suigetsu stated, as he once again released his herb-box, and took a strange mint-green ball out and threw it over to Karin-san, before deciding to accompany her towards the lake, just in case, not that she minded it though.

"What's that supposed to be?!" The same asked confused as she looked at the ball from each sides.

"A natural soap, made by things found in the nature, salt out of salt-mines, several heal-herbs, fruits, flowers and so on, it´s nothing dangerous but it cleans more than normal shampoo!" Suigetsu-san stated.

"… thanks I guess…., by the way, how do you know so much about herbal-medicine?!" Karin-san asked the question I had asked myself since some time now.

"Through our director of the Orphanage, sister Hinako, she was a kind and goodhearted woman, she always had an open ear for everybody, and she was for me and Mangetsu kind of like a mother.

As I told you we had been orphans by war, ever since I can think we grew up in that orphanage, and Sister Hinako taught us many things, which would enable us to help other people.

We had a good time…, until that day…, at my 10th birthday!" Suigetsu-san stated and it was clearly to see how much this pained him.

"May I ask what happened?!" Karin asked.

"Our Orphanage lied a bit out of a village in Mizu no Kuni and was next to orphanage also Church, she was often visited by the people of the village, even though not everyone could take in children, the villagers always gave us food, clothes and other necessary things, while we provided them with our herbal-medicine.

We were a little family, my Brother and I were the oldest of them, he was 10 and I was 5 years old to that time as we came in the Orphanage, we were 4 boys and 3 girls and Sister Hinako.

You could say that this part of my past was the fortunate and happy part, but it all changed at the day of my 10th birthday.

Me and the others were out in the forest to search for herbs and edible plants and fruits, as we suddenly smelled fire, it was strange since the smoke came out of the direction of the village.

We made our way back only to see that the Village had been attacked and mostly burnt down, everywhere people laid in despair and anguish, our brothers and sisters tried to heal as many as they could.

Meanwhile Mangetsu and I went up to the Orphanage, as we arrived we had to witness how the whole building caved in right before our very eyes, being burnt to the ground, Sister Hinako was nowhere to find.

The villagers stated that from nowhere a fireball came, accompanied with five others, each of them crashed down in another place in the village setting the same ablaze, a sixth hit the Tower of the Orphanage´s church and started a wild fire.

Days later we got to know that Sister Hinako didn´t made it out and died in the flames.

The village was destroyed so the wealth of its people, everyone packed the remaining belongings and made their way out of our valley, out of our home, we children of the orphanage asked to come with them, but most of them had lost their children or other relatives and the last they wanted to do in their misery and suffering, was to care about some kids out of an Orphanage.

Even though we had nothing anymore, they left us.

That was the first time I understood, how cruel Human beings could be.

They always say they care about us, but as soon as some things happened, we became only a nuisance and a burden to them, no one would give us a second look as they all left, we had nowhere to go, we didn´t even knew who and why we had been attacked, it was a mystery to us.

With the knowledge which Sister Hinako taught us, we tried our best to survive but, the years after that day became harsh, and our siblings slowly died, one by one.

Before we knew it, my brother and I we were the only ones remaining.

We lost everything we ever had and our thirst for revenge and knowledge about this attack became more and more unbearable, we wanted to understand, why we, why had we been attacked, for what purpose.

Long time we wandered, after we buried our last sister and decided to go away as well, to find a new place to be, to live.

On our way we someday encountered the Seven swordsman of Kirigakure, they had been on a mission to investigate an attack in a village, an attack which had been started by Shinobi of a fiend land, which use a jutsu to attack us, out of the assumption that our village was the hidden Ninja-village Kirigakure.

It was true our Village laid quite hidden within a mountains valley, which was at times surrounded by massive fog-walls.

But we had been a normal farming village and still the enemy thought it was all a farce, a masquerade, and so they decided to attack us.

The Seven Swordsman were send to investigate and clarify who exactly was responsible for this attack.

After they got everything they needed, they were about to vanish again, that´s when we begged to come along, to learn from them, we wanted to punish those who did this to our folk.

It took much out of us, in the end even our secret of our liquefiable bodies and the good mood of Ameyuri-sama and Fuguki-sama, to convince them to take us with them, but we also had to use our strongest Jutsu, the only jutsu we knew so far.

For it has been written in a scroll which, most likely by our parents, had been entrusted to Mangetsu.

The Hiden jutsu of the Hozuki-clan, Ni-tō Junsui Ryu (Two-headed pure-water Dragon), with which one can create the living shape of a mighty water-dragon, around yourself and your partner, the dragon is able to use own attacks, as a sentient being under our control.

Thanks to being made out of Pure-water, electricity was not led through it, and with it´s water lasers it was able to shoot a massive hole through an entire, compact mountain.

It was Defence as well as attack.

A mighty jutsu which not even Ameyuri-sama could fetch of with her lightning, my brother and I had trained in secret before the village, it was after all the only legacy of our family which we still had.

However it can only be used by our clan and when two water-wielder of the same blood, combine their chakra together, they have to be totally synchronic, both in mind and heart.

If not, the Jutsu is either weakened or simply fails right by the start, well with this Jutsu we managed to surprise them and they hadn´t really anything to set against it, Water as well as Lightning didn´t helped them at all.

In the end they could only win, because Zabuza-sama managed to cut through Mangetsu´s liquefied body and so disturbed the Chakra-flow, dispersing our Jutsu.

He beated us, although he did it without regard of his health, he got himself massive wounds, since he had to go through Pure water blades in the inner self of the dragon and he had to dodge the attacks of the dragon to even reach us, and inside it was impossible to breath, so he had to do it as quick as possible, that was the reason why he wore from that day on always bandages, to hide his with scars covered body.

A few seconds more and he might had suffocated.

In the end we were down on the ground and they got ready to kill us, until the moment Fuguki-sama and Ameyuri-sama stopped them, saying that it had been ages since they last were threaten in such a way, and that they were interested to see if we could pull through with the training and what might become of us.

That´s how our apprenticeship started, the moment we decided to become killers, all in order to find the ones who attacked our village.

Thinks went well and we became quite strong, until the moment as I heard from my brother's death in Battle against Kisame Hoshigaki.

The last member of my family was dead, I was all alone, it threw me much out of my path for some days.

As I was ready to take upon my duty again, I had to hear that the seven swordsman of the mist had dispersed for good.

Fuguki-sama was dead, killed by Kisame-sama, Zabuza-sama had to flee, Ameyuri-sama had fallen victim to her born sickness and the others had parted ways.

I was all alone and I doubted myself to be strong enough to avange my Brother or even my family after all Mangetsu had always been the stronger one of us, I saw that also in the training, he easily mastered the jutsus, with which I had much difficulty to master.

Most of the others gave up on me, but Ameyuri-sama and Zabuza-sama, until the days, as they either vanished or died, they trained me as hard as they could, so as if they had knew that in the end I would be on my own.

After a while I made myself on the way I had trained so long for, to find clues on who attacked our village and kill them.

I found out that it had been a failed experiment of Kirigakure, they wanted to test the abilities one of their Ninja-prodigies, the current Mizukage; Mei Terumi, for war with the other lands.

But things went out of control, and so it came that her jutsus, based on her Kekkai Genkai, went out of her control and landed right in our valley.

They disguised the affair as an attack of a foreign country.

All these years I had worked for those, who killed my family and nearly annihilated my village.

I knew I had not the power to defeat a whole army, so I made my way out of Kirigakure, then suddenly one night I was knocked out somehow, as I woke back up, I was in that Tank tube, and well the rest you know.

Orochimaru experimented with me, Sasuke killed Orochimaru and released me, we all travelled together, made us the world our enemy, then fought in the war for the good side, and afterwards we were fleeing and are since then on the run!" Suigetsu-san told and Karin-san was in awe.

"I never knew how hard your life had been..., i´m sorry?!" She stated.

"Well you never were interested in my history, all that once ever mattered to you was to keep me in good condition for Orochimarus experiments.

And later you never wanted to bond and constantly held me on great distance, still I also never thought that I ever would freely tell you these things!" Suigetsu-san explained and she nodded embarrassed.

"Guess you got a point there, well seems like our destinies are quite similar, we each thought to be lost, we only had one person we could always really trust until they suddenly died and were unable to ever come back, ever since our live became fucked up!" Karin-san stated.

"Yeah with the slight difference, that you hadn´t to live most of the time within a Glass-tube, you were free!" Suigetsu-san stated as both finally arrived at the lake and began to take of their clothes to bathe, without really recognizing it.

"Well sorry but I wasn't as free as you might think, sure I had my own private life, but I still had to work hard for my life and I still had to let others bite me.

Until I took over that prison I was not free at all, while all you had to do was to sit in your tube, get feed and once in a while let them experiment on you!" Karin-san countered.

"Compared to me you had it rather easily, I would say!" She stated with narrowed eyes.

"Only with the difference, that I never went freely to Orochimaru, I was drugged and kidnapped and then restraint in my freedom, so tell me in which way I had a comfortable life!" Suigetsu-stated with equal narrowed eyes.

Both looked into each other's eyes for a long time.

"You look cute without glasses you know!" Suigetsu-san suddenly stated causing Karin-san to fall comically but also to burn up in embarrassment.

"Baka!" She mumbled.

"Anyways…, mind telling me why the hell you are naked?!" She asked.

"I wanted to take a bath!" Suigetsu-san stated absentmindly, as he checked out Karin-san´s body, who just got conscious about her state.

"Where do you think you´re looking?" She asked, as she treated him with a fist.

"Well it´s nothing what I haven't seen before, did I?!" the cocky man stated.

"Geez…, just keep your distance!" Karin-san stated as she went into the water, with her undergarments on.

"Geez you are no fun, it´s not like I wouldn´t cherish your killer-body, you know.

And I thought I would at least get a little rewards for saving you before!" Suigetsu-san stated frowning.

"Well you were the reason, that we had been falling into their trap in the first place, weren´t you?!" Karin-san stated unforgivingly, while Suigetsu-san only sighed.

"I swear one day you will lay in my arms and I will pleasure you till you cum at least 10 times!" he mumbled with a perverted grin.

The scene changed.

This time we seemed to walk towards an old abandoned barn.

Under me I could see Suigetsu-san and Karin-san, which tried to seduce him, slightly drunken.

"Heeeeeyyy, Suigeshu, tell me, am I reassy ugly?!" She asked, mumbling in drunkenness.

She practically laid upon him.

"You aren´t ugly, not at all!" Suigetsu-san stated to her, as he carried her piggy back towards their makeshift home.

"Why don´t you want to take me then!?" She asked him.

"First of you are very beautiful and I would be honoured to lay down with you, however you are drunk as hell right now, and taking advantage of a drunken woman isn´t, beside of when it´s to assassinate her, not really my style.

So you first have to get sober again, before you can take such a decision, after all if I would do it, I wouldn´t live long enough to see the light of day anymore, when you become sober.

Also are you wet from the rain and ice cold, before you do anything you got to warm up, or else you catch a cold, can´t have that now!" Suigetsu stated sweat-dropping at that offer.

"If you mean!" Karin-san only stated as she fell asleep on his back.

"Geez…, i´m way too friendly with her, nothing but my love to her, keeps me from taking advantage of this situation!" Suigetsu-san thought, as he opened the door to the barn.

Inside Jugo laid sleeping between some animals, who came over from the forest.

"Well then, now to you, first we got to take of these wet clothes!" He stated, as he stripped Karin-san half naked, with skilled fingers, seems like he did that very often.

"This should do!" He said before he took of his own shirt and pulled Karin up to his chest, regulating his own body heat, and warming her by embracing her.

"Dammit you really had a few glasses too much, I would say!" He stated, as he cringed at the scent, which came from her mouth, he took out one of his special herbal-medicine, pills which could get you sober in no time.

"The place here sure is perfect, no one knows us and no one cares that we are living in this old barn!" Suigetsu-san stated, as he lovingly stroke over a sleeping Karin-san´s hair with a brush, brushing the water out, while having liquefied his arm, to use as a bath-tub.

He thought about how his skill had become far better in the last four years since the war, he was able to stay in form even if he turned to water, but also turning to a puddle was nice, which enabled him to do various things.

Like peeking at Karin, when they were in the Onsen.

He even was now able to use water-streams to see what is going on further down, which came often handy when they wanted to spy on their hunters, and he only had to send chakra through the water with his face under the surface.

"But still, it would mean nothing, if Karin would not always manage to feel their presences beforehand!" Suigetsu-san muttered, as he stroke over Karin-san´s sleeping face, she had nuzzled deeper in his warm embrace.

"If ever someone would once told me that I ever might fall for you, I would have had first a good laugh and then slice him into halves.

But now, I want nothing else but being with you, living with you and maybe create some cute and strong offspring!" Suigetsu-san stated, as he was tempted by her innocent look, he was inches before kissing him.

"Me too, I don´t want to be with anyone else!" Karin-san´s voice emerged from his chest.

"You fooled me again with your fake sleep, didn´t you?!" Suigetsu-san stated with a smirk and an eye-roll.

"Not really I just woke up as you said that!" Karin-san stated, as she opened her eyes and looked deep in his.

"You are so beautiful, even more when you´re sober!" Suigetsu-san stated with a smile.

"I see, I guess I had to build up the courage to tell you, by getting drunk enough to just spill the beans, whenever I tried before, I either was too shy or I ended up arguing with you instead.

But I don´t want this anymore, I want us to be really together…, I might cannot give you my first time and neither my first kiss anymore, but I hope you still would consider to take my offer!" Karin-san stated.

"Oh about your first time I would not be so sure…!" Suigetsu stated.

"What do you mean by that?!" Karin-san asked confused.

"You remember, a few years ago, as that bear attacked you, some years after the fourth Ninja World War.

You asked me to not only heal your wounds but also to heal and erase the scars of your past…., you told me about your past and how terrible it had been for you…, well I might have healed one place more, which is also to associate with this!" Suigetsu-san stated.

"Wait you mean…., my Hymen?!" Karin-san asked.

"Indeed, a new life begins for you tonight, and it would be an honour for me if I can be your first, your one and only!" Suigetsu-san stated and Karin-san suddenly began to cry, with a joyful smile.

"Yes!" She stated, as she kissed Suigetsu-san gently.

"I will be yours, as you are mine!" she whispered as she laid down on the hay a bit away from jugo, using her Jutsu to build up a barrier around them.

"Come, let´s indulge ourselves in pleasure!" She stated as she pulled Suigetsu-san down to her.

The scene changed again and I felt that I was finally at my goal, Akihito´s birth.

"Karin stay with me, be strong!" Suigetsu stated, as he held the hand of his Girlfriend.

"IT HURTS SO MUCH!" Karin-san screamed in sheer pain, as her body, tried to push her baby out.

"Goddammit, where the hell is Jugo when I need him?!" Suigetsu-san stated in sheer terror.

"I´m here and I got some Backup!" Jugo-san´s voice shouted, as he came with another man and a woman.

"Who are they?!" Suigetsu-san asked with narrowed eyes.

"This is the doctor and his assistant, the midwife!" Jugo-san stated.

"Wonderful, I was at the end of my wits!" Suigetsu-san stated.

"I DON´T CARE ABOUT THAT BULLSHIT; JUST MAKE IT STOP!" Karin-san screamed in pain.

"No fear we´re here to help, alright Mr. Hozuki, I need warm water, towels, and a clean place, also we need you to hold on tight!" The doctor stated as he instantly went down to business.

"This going to be a long night!" Jugo-stated as he turned around and went before the barn, probably to keep guard.

The scene changed and we were back in the barn, but it seemed to be shortly after birth, the doctor as well as the midwife whipped the sweat of their foreheads and in Karin-san´s arms laid, packed in a blanket, a sleeping Baby.

"Well this was clearly a succefull birth, congratulation to you, Ms. Uzumaki, you just gave birth to a strong and healthy boy!" The doctor stated.

"He´s so beautiful…, so tiny and soft…, so cute…., I cant believe that this is my baby, my flesh and blood…, my child!" Karin-san, slightly exhausted, stated as she looked at the baby with a loving glance.

"He looks really cute and so much like me…, beside of the eyes, they are from it´s mother!" Suigetsu-san, blown away by the beauty of this moment, could only smile as also tears flew over his cheeks.

"Well then, how shall he be called, for the passport and the birth-documents!" The doctor asked as he took out some papers, wrote down the names of the child's parents, the location and date and then waited for them to decide.

"How about Kagetsu, which means Bright moon, as you can see he was born during a full moon and a cloudless sky, it would match perfectly.

Also I wish for him to have a bright nature!" Suigetsu-san stated.

"Hmmm, it is a beautiful name… however, is my son not a moon…, I don´t know what your family had with moon-meaning names, but he will be to a half Uzumaki, so I think we should call him different for a change, I mean Mangetsu, Suigetsu, Kagetsu…, naaah!" Karin-san stated, as she waved off.

"So how do you want to call him then?!" Suigetsu-san asked a little frustrated.

"Well, going on with your idea of him being a bright child, why not simply call him Akihito, which actually means exactly that, Bright child!" Karin-san stated.

"I see, so he´s called Akihito Hozuki Uzumaki…, that sounds kind of strange you know!" Suigetsu-san stated.

"Yeah I know what you mean, but what to do, we can't just call him simply Akihito, I mean he should later be able to be proud of his Clans after all!" Karin-san stated

"Yeah but what to do…?!" Suigetsu-san mused.

"How about you merge your names together, I heard some families do that, if they are not sure which name to take?!" Jugo-san asked.

"So you mean, Akihito Hozumaki?!" Both, Suigetsu-san and Karin-san, asked, while Jugo nodded.

"Well it doesn´t sound that bad, I would say!" Karin-san stated.

"Yeah it´s actually quite easy to write and read, it rolls over my tongue like water!" Suigetsu mused.

"Alright that´s it then, our child will be called Akihito Hozumaki!" Karin-san said towards the doctor, who nodded and wrote the name down.

"And with this it is official, Congratulations Ms. Uzumaki, you are the happy mother of Akihito Hozumaki!" The doctor said as he gave her the documents.

"For the official registration you can come in tomorrow in my bureau, also, it would be better for your guys and mostly for the child, if you find another place to live, this barn is not the place to raise a child!" The Doctor continued.

"We would, but we are quite short on money!" Suigetsu-san stated.

"Well you can work here if you want, the smith for example needs some help, his apprentice eloped with his daughter, it was a nasty affair…, anyways there are a lot of jobs you can make to earn money, I mean men of your strength will be able to do that easily!" The doc said.

"We will think about it!" Jugo stated.

"Very well, a good evening I wish!" The doctor stated as he and the midwife vanished in the dark of the night back towards the village.

"Well i´m tired too, we better get us some sleep the evening was tiring!" Jugo stated and the other two nodded.

Suigetsu-san laid down next to the mother of his child and watched how his son and Girlfriend slept.

You are so cute…, you going to be a strong Shinobi someday, my wonderful Akihito!" he mumbled as he watched his son.

He truly looked like his father, white hair and shark-like teethes, the only difference were his reddish eyes, a heritage of his mother.

"Thank you…, Suigetsu, for loving me… and giving me this Child!" A sleeping Karin-san mumbled in her sleep while small tears of joy streamed down her cheeks.

She smiled in her sleep and the sight of mother and Child, even drove me, Boruto Uzumaki, to tears.

"You are so beautiful and you gave birth to this child, my son, my wonderful and beautiful son…, I cannot say enough times how thankful I am…, and still, thanks for being alive Karin…., thank you for loving me and thank you for bearing my child for so long…., for it finally to have been born.

The newest and last born member of the Hozuki Clan.

Thank you for being my light, both of you!" He mumbled as he kissed them both.

"Congratulation Suigetsu, you are a father now!" Jugo stated from over his place.

"Thanks man, I swear I will keep them both save, no, all of you!" Suigetsu-san stated with iron determination.

I knew I saw enough and so I used my jutsu to dive back out of Akihito´s blood memory.

"Huah that was a long trip!" Chouchou stated.

"Well there was much to see, it were although only three memories but they were more complex than the ones I saw from you, when I dived in your memories it showed me various important scenes of your parents, by Akihito it was the same, however I also saw and heard Karin-san´s thoughts, they were very complex, compared to your parents memories.

Complex and far reaching, full of sorrow, doubt and inner anguish, but also of thankfulness, comradeship and love.

I think, I can read the memories of Uzumaki members easier, than those who are not, because deep down we are all connected to the same blood.

Uchiha and Uzumaki are from the same Blood, the blood of Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki, the Rikoudou Sennin, that's why Sarada´s blood-memories were nearly as complex as those of myself.

Anyways to what I've seen…, Akihito, how much do you know about the past lives of your parents, before the war?!" I asked, as I felt the glance of both, Suigetsu-san and Karin-san in my back.

"Not much…, why so?!" Akihito asked.

"Well never mind, you better of not knowing these things, as long as they aren´t willing to tell it to you by themselves, all what should be important to you is that your Mother and Father truly love each other, I saw it.

Even though both argue so much and so often, does your mother trust no man more, than your father.

Your father, on the other hand, swore to protect your mother and you, with all his life.

I saw how he saved her from being killed by a giant bear, he brought her away in safety while Jugo-san dealt with the bear.

He healed her, so good that after a few hours not even a scratch of her wounds and scars were to see.

Neither the new once nor the scars from the past.

I saw how your father fell into a fit of rage as your mother was mistreated and humiliated and how he killed an entire group, over 30 men of Ex-Shinobi single-handily, before restraining the last one, their leader to let your mother have the last beat, as revenge for humiliation and mistreating her as well as mistreating your father.

After that I saw the night you were born, your father held her hand the whole time and the way they talked about you after you were born, the way they spoke to each other, can only be spoken by parents, who love their child and each other over everything!" I stated.

"You parents met before the war and travelled together, they saw much, did much and experienced much, the years after the war was for them full of hardships and yet, they never regretted even once to have fallen in love with each other, or to have given birth to you…, and also, your mother told you wrong, sure she was still a bit drunk as she seduced your father, however the same, before any interpersonal activities, gave your mother a medic to get sober in an instant, he did not, as you might think, took advantage of your mother in drunken state, no it was a mutual and honest decision to have intercourse, and it was her honest wish to give birth to a child.

The night you were born, she cried tears of happiness!" I stated and Akihito was in awe, Karin-san, so I saw in the background, once again broke down in tears after hearing all this, clamped on Suigetsu who calmed her with soothing voice and a few kisses, and a smile.

"I see… thank you Boruto, you helped me out much!" Akihito stated with a bright smile.

"Ah another thing…, your father actually first wanted to call you Kagetsu Hozuki, after the night you were born, a cloudless sky and a Full moon.

But your mother is right, as she called you Akihito, you are a bright Child, cheerful, smart and kind!" I stated with a smile and Karin-san looked at me with a bow of her head, thanking me.

" … Well Anyways, now that we got this, it´s my turn, I won't let you off the hook again so easy, yesterday you didn´t wanted to, but today you finally gonna answer my questions, Boruto Uzumaki!" A fuming Senpou stated , as she watched me with narrowed eyes.

"S-sure thing, after I paused for a bit, I promise!" I explained and she nodded.

" Don´t you dare forget your promise.

"No fear…, I would never!" I stated, as I rested my head in Sarada´s lap and dozed fast off.

"We will…, see!"
