Sorry for the long wait!

And in all honesty, no I don't have a valid excuse.

But I do have a fully written prologue for a new Naruto Story, along with a plot line for a Naruto/Elder scrolls crossover. Which will be released hopefully around the same time as Chapter three of this story.

From now on I will be posting the date for the next chapter release in the summary and authors note. Chapter 3 – The eyes that hypnotize will be released on September 14th (Hopefully).

I'm going to try for longer chapters and shorter times for release.

Just to make sure I don't forget. There are NO parings other than canon in this story. NONE.

Lets start!

Chapter 2

The eyes that predict.

/

1 moon later.

Worst. Luck. EVER.

Mosspaw was sure Starclan was out to get him after this. All he wanted was a damn break from his terrible luck.

His clan had been driven from their home and forced to take refuge at the cave that houses the moonstone. It was a horrible experience.

But for the past moon they had been here at the moonstone. Mosspaw had barely spoken or showed any type of emotion.

But it wasn't the damp cave that had Mosspaw unresponsive to his clan-mates and father. It wasn't the hunger pangs and lack of prey in the area for eating. It wasn't even the shock of finding another cat in the clans that had eyes that were somewhat like his.

Its because he just couldn't get over the fact that he had taken the lives of other clan cats when Shadowclan invaded their territory.

He had no idea what he was doing when it happened. His mind went straight to auto pilot and protected the elders from any and all threats.

But now that the danger was over, and the elders safe. He thought on what he had done and felt disgusted with himself.

They could have been fathers.

They could have been mothers.

They could have been siblings.

Friends.

Lovers.

Mentor and student.

STARCLAN DAMNIT I CANT GET OVER THIS!

Mosspaw thought as he sulked in a far part of the cave. Not even the fact that he had unlocked a third black mark in his eyes was enough to cheer him up and get him out of his depressive state.

"Oi! Emo-king!"

Mosspaw turned at the sudden voice. As he did, he saw his best friend and mentor, Webpaw and Swiftheart, walking towards him.

"Hn" was Mosspaws only response, even his mentor and his best friend couldn't get him to speak more than five words at a time.

"Come on Mosspaw. I know you took lives that day, and the first time you do it will always be the hardest time, no matter what. But you saved those elders, if you hadn't been their to kill those Shadowclan cats, the elders would be the cats who are dead." Swiftheart explained to a broody Mosspaw.

Even though many other cats in his clan, including his father, had explained this to him. He just didn't get why he felt depressed and angry. Its like his mind and body wanted him to be depressed. Its like it wanted him to be angry. It was horrible, and it felt very much like some kind of curse.

"I-I don't know, I just cant get over the depression, I've tried honestly. Its driving me nuts." Mosspaw responded truthfully, "Its eating away at my sub-conscious, none of the coping methods I've tried work."

"Welp! I guess I'm going to be the one to beat this stupid depression out of your damn head!" Webpaw exclaimed, getting into a combat stance. "Swiftheart, mind refereeing?"

"Not at all." Swiftheart replied.

While smiling at his best friends antics, he walked a bit away, turned, and got into a combat ready stance.

Swiftheart smiled at the two apprentices as he backed off a bit to referee the spar for them.

"Ready you two?" Swiftheart asked, getting slight nods from the two of them.

"Alright, hajime!(Begin)" he called, beginning the match.

As Webpaw went on the offensive, Mosspaw noticed that as Webpaw would move his fore paw back, the muscles on his fore leg would ripple in a certain way, making it all to clear to Mosspaws eyes what he would do next.

"Katon: Goryuka no Justu (Fire release: Great dragon flame technique)"Yelled Mosspaw, before inhaling deeply, and exhaling a massive dragon shaped flame at Webpaw.

With a sharp intake of breath, Webpaw sped through paw-signs before slamming them on the ground. "Doton: Doryuheki(Earth release: Earth style wall)" Webpaw said as a large wall of rock shot up, blocking the fire technique from turning him into a pile of ash.

As the match went on deeper in the cave, they failed to notice the two arrivals at the front of the cave, who had just finished explaining to Tallstar that they could go back to Windclan territory.

As they continued to spar, Tallstar sent an apprentice to gather them and tell them what happened.

Back to the spar however, Swiftheart noticed the change in behaviour that Mosspaw was showing as soon as the spar started.

Heh, seems Mosspaw is to into the spar to feel depressed about the lives he took. Swiftheart thought as he watched Mosspaw block and counter every one of Webpaws attacks.

So the third black mark in his eyes must allow him to be able to predict his opponents moves. He could do it before at two marks but it seems to be on a much greater level than before. He mused as he turned to see a young she-cat apprentice dashing towards them.

"Yes?" Swiftheart asked as the apprentice approached, while Webpaw and Mosspaw stopped their spar to come see what was going on.

"Tallstar has asked me to come retrieve you three because we are headed back to our territory now." she told them.

"What?!" exclaimed Webpaw, "but what about those Shadowclan bastards?"

"Two Thunderclan warriors came and told Tallstar that Brokenstar is no longer the leader of Shadowclan, and that they have left Windclan territory." She explained.

"What happened to Brokenstar?" asked Mosspaw.

"Not sure, all the Thunderclan cats know that he isn't there anymore and Shadowclan has left our territory." She answered.

"Alright then" Swiftheart said, as he looked over at Mosspaw and Webpaw. "Looks like we get to go home."

After coming back to Windclan territory, all Mosspaw wanted to do was sleep.

Heh, at least the spar I had lifted my mood. Mosspaw thought as he approached the apprentice den.

"I hope your not going to sleep Mosspaw"

Mosspaw turned his head in the direction of the voice to see his father standing there.

"Why not? Do i have to do anything right now?" Mosspaw asked.

"Yes actually, tonight is going to be your first gathering!"Tallstar explained with a smile.

But of course, Tallstar was yet again surprised by his son as he expected a happy expression, got a tired and sad one instead.

"Sometimes, i wonder if someone out there has worse luck than me." He said as he walked slowly to the camp entrance, suppressing a sigh.

/

AHCHOO!

After a massive sneeze, one could see a cloud of paperwork flutter down and onto the floor of an office.

Tsunade sighed as she got up to pick up all of her paperwork that flew off her desk.

"Someone out there must be talking about me or my luck again." she said as she started to pick up the bane of all kages.

Yeah yeah its short please don't hate me.

The next chapter will be significantly longer and hopefully much sooner.

By the time this is out you could wait about an hour and my new Naruto story will be out. (Its Yaoi, don't hate me, everyone has preferences. If you don't like just don't read.)

So. Aiming for The 14th for the next chapter, maybe will be a day or two late.

But for now, I say BYE!
