The beginning

As I sat on the wet ridge I felt very uncomfortable one more set forward and I would be swept over a waterfall and most likely die from the fall. Lexi had walked off along the ridge to find some way out. She's taking a really long time is she alright?

An hour had passed when Lexi finally returned.

"Hey if we walk along the ridge it eventually leads out."

"And how can you be sure?" Sasuke asked.

"Because I ended up at the hole that Sakura and Naruto made in the garden." that shut Sasuke up. I started to giggle then I got a glare from Sasuke which made me laugh even more. We started to walk off up along the ridge but it seemed endless till we finally got into a tunnel leading away from the river/waterfall. It wasn't long after that when we saw the hole.

"Should we continue along or carry on through the tunnel." oops I wasn't supposed to say that out loud but it just slipped.

"Down the tunnel unless your to scared billboard brow" Ino replied.

"Ha yeah right Ino pig." I return.

As we keep on walking down we find another dead end. Great, perfect now we need to find an entrance, but the wall suddenly crumbled and Naruto came through with a rasengan. 'Wait Rasengan crap'. We all dived for the wall just scarping being hit. When he finally past and stopped his weapon he turned and smiled like a kid who was being given sweets. "Sakura are you okay? We've been looking for ages for you lot"

"You loser you almost hit us you idiot" Sasuke yelled, but Naruto only giggled and scratched the back of his head.

"So how do we get out?" Ino asked after finally composing her self from near death.

I sigh we would have to walk back "The hole" I say. I didn't want to but if it was the only way that we defiantly knew without having to search for hours.

2 hours later

After getting back into the castle and having getting cleaned up I went to find Kagome. The others soon joined me with the search after hearing where we had ended up. It didn't take to long to find her as she was reading in the library. When she looked up she smiled at us but the smile soon disappeared when she saw how annoyed Temari, Gaara and Sasuke was. Which I was glad I wasn't on the receiving end of, that's how scary they looked.

"Want to explain why there is a waterfall underground which nearly killed a couple of us?" Temari growled. Wow she really was not happy.

"It's a long story" Kagome merely said looking at the ground.

"We have time" Temari stated as it was only 12 o'clock and we didn't need to eat till 5 o'clock.

"Okay, take a seat." Kagome said and the story began. "It was almost half a millennia ago. There were no set kingdoms only tribes and each tribe kept trying to get a better weapon than the other. It was not a good time with wars here and there and one leader wanted them all. He had been trying new technique called Haki. It was the first type of form of ninjutsu and chakra power ever. The other leaders were cautious and scared of what else that leader could do, so they sent assassins hoping to stop his power in his tracks. They unfortunately failed and the leader went after every tribe that night. Anyone who resisted him and wouldn't bow was killed instantly."

"What was his name?" Sasuke asked. Clearly interested in this but who wasn't we were hearing how ninjutsu was created.

"His name was Kyuubi" Kagome said and everyone gasped at this as it was the name of the Nine-tailed fox. "He created 8 other kingdoms all under his name with a different leader for each the 9th was the biggest, his own. I am sure you can all tell who the leaders of the kingdoms are can't you?"

We all looked at each other then answered. "The tailed beasts"

"Correct but at the time they were all human. When Kyuubi had 2 sons and 2 daughters they were taught everything about their father and how great he was and how he got the kingdoms, but as they got older they started to think he wasn't great same with the other leaders sons and daughters. The eldest of each son and daughter started to pose a threat and they were sent after by their own fathers and they ended up here. Although at the time there was no castle. They fell into the river and were carried underground and went over the waterfall but at that time the water fall had a metre drop and just like now had space above it that they could all breathe it was there that they all created the ninjutsu that we have today. They weren't heard of from for 10 years until they finally came out and attacked"

"I beat that wasn't all they did" Ino said with a small smile on her face. True though on there own for 10 years and only 2 of each were related.

"Yes your right Ino they had children of there own and taught them all the ninjutsu and genjutsu and taijutsu they knew. They kept them at the waterfall to keep them safe. They went out and attacked each of their fathers starting with the first to the ninth. After a while things grew peaceful and the sons and daughters returned to each of their kingdoms but with their lovers not siblings. It was all evened out and they eventually taught their Kingdoms everything they knew in a mere 6 years. However this peace didn't last some people still believed the previous kings were greater and they needed war to survive..."

"Not they just thinking that from what they saw" Naruto interrupted.

"This is just what they believed Naruto but they all gathered and called themselves The Akatsuki. One son and one daughter were apart of them but..."

"What but they were trying to destroy them first then they want them back." Shikamaru said a little too loudly though.

"There is a reason they joined. One of the sons got badly hurt in their last battle he was paralysed from the waist down and he knew that the only person who could bring back his legs was them. His wife one of the daughters couldn't bare to watch him as he was so when she heard of the group and what they were trying to achieve she joined them and made their own jutsu to resurrects the kings though the jutsu they used turned them into demons"

"So that's where the myths came from" Naruto said.

"Can I continue or are you going to interrupt me when you don't like what you here." Kagome said looking around at all of us and the continued "They rampaged everywhere. The sons and daughters managed to seal all the beast in another world, but it cost them their lives. This castle was made as a memory for them. That is pretty much it on the waterfall how..."

"Well that wasn't that long" Temari said. Well actually it was, we had been sat there for almost and hour.

"If you had let me finish there is more. You only asked about the waterfall but you will need to know the rest now." Kagome said. "You are the first group to hear this story after it was forgotten and only the demons made into a myth. I haven't even told you of the prophecy"

"What is it then?" Gaara asked.

"Just before the sons and daughters died they saw made a riddle each in a code that no one can really understand but there is something they wrote that we can understand but you would have to go see it yourselves" Kagome said.

"Why?" we all asked.

"Can't you just tell us?" Lexi asked.

"No, I can't it is written at the bottom of the waterfall and I can't get down there as I don't have the power" Kagome said.

This confused me "What do you mean you don't the power?"

"I haven't got any chakra. I don't even have a chakra network, but only certain people can go there and I believe it is you lot"

"What do you mean us lot" Temari said.

"There is a second prophecy that is known. In years to come many will try to find but those only with the purest blood and purest heart can find what is to be seeked only those of our descendent who are us can find what is to be found as it will reveal it self to those few. It is believed that after this prophecy that the royal families married other royal families so there was a lot of mixing but we don't understand the who are us bit."

"How can you tell it is us?" Gaara asked.

"The hole out in the garden, finding the passage way in Lexi's room when others have checked all over in their rooms and I am sure you can find another. This place is magical that is why they could invent ninjutsu, that is why no one else has been able to find the entrance and that is why it is revealing itself to only you" Kagome looked so sure yet she sounded crazy as well. Aren't reincarnations supposed to look like each other they don't even have any type of picture of them to know we are their reincarnations.

A while after dinner Lexi went into the library to look up and try to find more information. Gaara went to help her after and hour as she had only got through 10 books when there were over a thousand more to go. Eventually we all helped. Naruto decided that he would use lots of shadow clones after half and hour and soon there were loads of Naruto's pulling books out, it was then one of them pulled a book and it didn't come all the way out instead it came part way out. We then heard the sound of leavers and other things when the bookcase started to move to the side revealing a room with more pictures but these were really old and they were portraits. Girls on one side and

"Guys why do the portraits look like us?" Shikamaru asked. Looking at them we looked almost identical but there were 18 portraits not 8. They did almost look exactly like us but looking closer there were some differences.

"Hey would anyone know who the others could be?" Naruto asks. "Because if some look like us the other ones could look like other prince and princesses today"

"Sakura would her parents made her memorise every kingdom in the country and some that are on islands outside the countries." Ino said. "So Sakura do you think you can do it?"

"Get me some paper a pen and a camera sure." I say.

"Why can't you just figure it out now?" Sasuke said.

"We don't know how long it will take for that door to close and by tomorrow or later we would have forgotten who was who and we don't know how to get out."

"That's a good point" Shikamaru.

After 10 minutes I had all pictures taken and on paper and matched:

Gunnar Aleron - Gaara Sakubi

Timandra Aleron - Temari Sakubi

Sandor Omnituens - Sasuke Uchiha

Kahina Omnituens - Konan Ame

Shen Redmond - Shikamaru Nara

Iman Redmond - Ino Yamanaka

Keshi Fernir - Kiba Inuzuka

Leda Fernir - Lexi Hara

Shinpi Blaz - Shino Aburame

Tisiphone Blaz - Tenten Fujisaki

Chevalier Gyges - Choji Akimichi

Sunita Gyges - Suzumebachi Kamizuru

Nevan Hadi - Neji Hyuuga

Hime Hadi - Hinata Hyuuga

Nolan Warren - Nagato Ame

Sari Warren - Sakura Haruno

Nevan Tierney - Naruto Uzumaki

Alita Tierney - Ayame Ichiraku

However everyone was getting a little panicked as they didn't know whether it was brother and sister or lovers as obviously when you get married your surname changes. Ino was freaking out the most as she didn't want to be related to Shikamaru let alone his lover. Now it was just getting on my nerves none of them had thought of the most obvious thing.

"Guys why don't we ask Kagome what the names of the kings were and if she has any idea what the names of the kids were" I yelled just so I could be heard over racket they were making.

"If she did know she would have told us" Ino yelled at me.

"Would you want to say 18 names in one go over and over again because I sure wouldn't" I yelled back. Why did she have to yell at me I didn't do anything wrong. Ino and strangely Shikamaru were already running for the door before I even got to finish.

"KAGOME!" Ino and Shikamaru yelled hoping she wouldn't go anywhere when they finally found her.

"Yes" Kagome whispered clearly scared of them. I mean who wouldn't be Shikamaru running was never a good thing it usually meant something bad is happening or has happened as he is so lazy he would just say running is 'such a drag'.

"Do you know any of the names of the sons and daughters and to which king?" Ino and Shikamaru said in perfect unison.

"Why? You wouldn't know which one is you" Kagome said.

"Yes we do" they said. It was now getting creepy that they said everything in unison.

"I'm Shen Redmond"

"I'm Iman Redmond" still in both perfect unison, I wonder if Kagome could understand them.

"Um, lets see your the son and daughter of Isobu Redmond" Kagome said. "Are you to okay?" Ino and Shikamaru had frozen but Ino was the first to jump and be happy.

"Wahoo I'm not his lover yay" She yelled with glee. After that Shikamaru came back to earth and actually seamed pleased about it as much as Ino, just without the jumping and yelling. With what Kagome just said it summed up who was each others sibling. Though Lexi wasn't happy as the one she was related to was a dog trainer. Though there was a plus side her incarnation was the first to train cats and Kiba the first to train dogs so she was okay with that but just a little.

The brother and sisters I just put together could be mistaken as brother and sister.

Next chapter you will find out who is who's lover.
