Chapter 6 Iani's head snapped to the side a bit more and she stayed like that for a few seconds before turning her head fully at the woman, she still looked emotionless but now she stared into the woman's eyes, the woman froze for a bit as she saw images of herself being tormented in Iani's eyes.
she backed up a bit and said "You! monster! what the heck are you planning? Do you know who i am?"
Iani blinked slowly as something flashed passed her eyes in an instant and said "I am planning nothing...i am showing you images of what this poor creature has gone through...while being with you"
The woman looked surprised at Iani and then at Tora, who had jumped off Iani's shoulders and stood infront of her hissing feircly after Iani was slapped.
The woman turned to the Hokage and said "I wish to get my money back! this ...girl...has stolen Tora-chan from me!"
As the woman said "girl" it was said so spitefully that almost everyone flinched (with the exception of Kakashi, Iani, Sasuke and the hokage)
Tsunade sent a slight glare to Iani for making them lose profits as she handed the woman her money back.
the women waddled out and slammed the doors behind her.
Iani stared off out the window, the cat jumped onto her shoulder again and she lifted a hand unconciously to scratch it behind the ear, making Tora purr.
[I thank you, Mistress for saving me from the horrid woman] a voice said in Iani's head, she made no reaction except she stopped her patting for a second, then resumed.
[I Saved no one...] she replied, knowing it was Tora.
[I wish to stay beside you and help you with your ninja work and any other affairs] Tora said.
[...That will not be necessary, You have your freedom now, you can live with me or on your own, either way i will not need help...Tora] she told Tora.
[Ugh! please call me Raien that stupid woman thought i was a girl when i clearly have a ...] Raien stopped.
[I get the point...and i already knew you were a guy...i just didn't know what else to call you...okay Raien] Iani said.
then she noticed that she had missed the whole talking to the hokage thing and now Naruto was waving his hand infront of Iani's face. She flicked her eyes to him and he jumped back in surprise.
Everyone was looking at her weirdly and Iani just stared back.
"Iani-chan, are you okay? you just zoned out majorly then!" Naruto said, jumping to his feet and getting really close to Iani's face, Iani made no movements and Raien hissed at Naruto.
"...I was talking to Raien..." she told him.
they all looked confused and looked at her as if she was crazy.
"The cat formely known as Tora...Its real name is Raien...and he wishes for me to tell all of you that he wants to become a nin-cat" Iani told them as if it was the most normal thing in the world.
"She's telepathic?" Sakura asked, astounded. She had joined up with them out the front of the Hokage's office with her arm all better.
Iani's eyes flicked to her and said "He and yes he is"
[A pleasure to make your aquaintance...but if any of you hurt me or my mistress i will hurt you...] Raien sent out the thought to everyone in the room and they all looked surprised and shocked, Iani just looked normal.
"His mistress? but wasn't that lady that just walked out his mistress?" Sakura asked.
[Always with the questions...] Iani thought.
the cat seemed to smirk slightly on Iani's shoulder and said [Iie, the beautiful girl, who's shoulder i am on is my mistress...for she saved me and now i will become her nin-cat!] Iani raised an eyebrow at his flattery but no one could see it because of the hood.
they all gaped at Iani as she crossed her arms in boredem and looked at Kakashi.
"Have we gotten our missions yet?" she asked.
Kakashi snapped out of it and returned to normal.
"Yes, we are just waiting for the person we will be protecting..." Kakashi told her. She nodded and sat on the window sill, listening to the breeze that blew her hood down from her face.
[Sh...She's beautiful...] Sasuke thought, shocked at his own thoughts then he saw her eyes were still lifeless and went into deep thought.
The doors opened about 4 minutes later and a guy walked in about there age, he had messy-ish brown hair and green eyes.
"Ahh finally, everyone this is the prince of the Village Hidden in the Grass, Prince Tarou" Tsunade introduced him, the guy smirked around at all of them and his eyes landed on Iani, who still hadn't moved away from the window, ignoring everything around her.
The prince raised an eyebrow at her, still smirking and walked over.
"You know its rude not to look at a prince as he enters the room" he said, she didn't move a muscle and replied "...Your point?"
Everyone stared at her in shock, The prince was the first to recover and put his arms around her waist, he felt something poke into his gut and looked down to see she had twisted her wrist around on a weird angle to point a kunai at him.
The prince smirked and let go of her.
"...I like you, would you like to help me run my kingdom?" he asked, extending a hand to her, now she turned around, facing him, then she simply walked past him without a second glance.
They all looked at her in complete surprise.
Iani simply stood infront of Tsunade's desk.
"Where are we escorting him to?" she asked.
