Chapter 33 A Plan Starts to Form
Sakura just sat there stunned at what she was seeing, there standing there was not only Tsunade but her parents.
"Mom? Dad?" asked Sakura again as suddenly her mom leapt forward and hugged her eldest daughter for the first time in years.
"Sakura…I missed you so much." said Rin as she cried onto Sakura pink fur.
"I missed you too mom." said Sakura as she grudging pulled away to look back at Naruto.
"Don't worry I only need some rest." said Naruto as Sai helped him to his feet.
"We all need to talk." said Tsunade
"Yes, however I better check on Tamaki." said Sai
"You better so she doesn't start attacking us." said Kiba
"How is the cure for her mind coming along?" asked Sai
"Another week." said Ino
"I should be able to get it done within an hour." said Tsunade as she looked at Ino "And it is great to see you Ino."
"Thank you Lady Tsunade." said Ino as her tail waged for joy.
"Come on Naruto." said Sakura as she offered him her shoulder as they walked down the hallway toward their room her parents and sister right behind them.
"Nice little den you have here." said Kane
"Well I try." said Naruto as they entered the room. Instantly Davi eyes widened as he saw his parents and sister.
"Mommy." cried Davi as he ran into his mom's arms.
"I missed you Davi." said Rin as she noticed Sakura lying Naruto against the wall before scooping up three little kits.
"So these are my grandkids." said Rin as she picked up Davi before walking toward her daughter and son in law.
"Ya, three no waiting." said Naruto with a grin. "Airi is the blonde, Kushina is the pink one and the little red men is Riki."
"They are beautiful and they look like you." said Kane
"We are foxes." said Sakura as she stroke little Kushina's back, as she nuzzled in for warmth.
"Even as foxes they look like you so they will like even more like you when we find a cure." Said Tsunade as she entered the room followed by Ino, Kiba and Kadin.
"Lady Tsunade can't we have a moment together as a family?" asked Rin
"Sorry but we have important things to talk about and we need to start work just in case Sasuke finds us." Said Tsunade
"He will not come himself." said Naruto as Tsunade looked at him.
"Why do you say that?" asked Ino "He needs you."
"He wants the world more, he will take care of the world and at the same time send a squad after us." said Naruto "Hopefully Hinata."
"Why Hinata?" asked Sakura as she looked at Naruto.
"Don't worry it is nothing like that…it is just I think she is human minded." said Naruto
"What?" asked Ino "There is no way Hinata is not animal minded, she sleeps with Sasuke and is his right hand woman."
"I think that is partly why she acts like that." said Naruto "She may hate Sasuke but she loves her kids."
"I know I would do the same." said Sakura as she looked at Naruto "I would protect my kits first nothing is as important as that."
"Spoken like a true mother." said Tsunade with a smile
"So you think we can talk to Hinata?" asked Kiba
"Not directly she has to show her loyalty so she would attack us but maybe she will not move as fast as Sasuke would to find us." Said Naruto
"That still may not give us a lot of time." said Ino
"Luckily I have a cure." said Tsunade as everyone looked at her.
"You do?" asked Rin
"I think I do and now I have all the pieces. Naruto's demon chakra and samples from unturned newborn babies." said Tsunade "In theory it should work to a certain extent."
"What do you mean?" asked Ino
"Come on Ino you should remember this from cures 101." Said Tsunade as Ino lowered her head.
"No cure is 100% effective there is always someone with a natural immunity to it and the cure will not work for them." said Ino
"So you are saying we may find a cure but it will not do the job?" asked Naruto
"It will do the job for most of the population but not all." said Tsunade "From the numbers I ran it looks like the cure I have plan would be effective 89.7% on the entire population."
"What about the remaining 10%?" asked Sakura
"More than likely the cure will cause the virus to go into overdrive and they would lose their humanity forever and become nothing more than animals." said Tsunade "The good thing about that is the virus would burn itself out so they wouldn't be able to re infect someone."
"So one in ten people would lose their humanity forever?" asked Naruto as he looked at Sakura "Can we do that?"
"We must." said Sakura
"But what if it is one of us?" asked Ino "One of our kids?"
Sakura eyes widened at the idea of her little kits being an animal forever.
"The numbers drop down much lower if they have their human mind already." said Tsunade "Possibly 99% effective."
"How do we know our kids have their human minds?" asked Sakura
"Sorry I should have been clearer their minds are human minds." said Tsunade
"What?" asked Ino
"From what I studied of the mind the kids born of infected parents do have their human mind but since they are raised as animals they act like animals." said Tsunade
"We have to do this." said Kiba
"Ya we do." said Naruto "I just don't feel it is totally right."
"It is the best shot we have." said Ino as she lowered her head."How long will you need?"
"About half a day per cure." said Tsunade as Naruto raised an eyebrow but his father-in-law beat him to it.
"Per cure?" asked Kane
"Yes." said Tsunade "We are all separated races now, so a cure for foxes will not work on cats. Dogs and wolves are so close that it is likely the same cure would work but that is not the norm and I would rather not risk it."
"So how will you get all the samples." said Ino
"I have most of them already." said Tsunade as she looked at Sakura. "Did you take a sample of one of their blood before you turned them."
"Yes." said Sakura as she remembered Ino drawing some of Riki's blood moments before he was turned.
"And Sai said his girlfriend is with child and so are you Ino." said Tsunade as Sakura looked at her best friend her eyes widened as she noticed a slight baby bump on Ino.
"How could I not notice?" thought Sakura
"We did just give birth to three kids." said Inner Sakura
"Ya, I am." said Ino
"So already I have samples for big cats, dogs and foxes." said Tsunade "Add that to the cow, horse, deer, bunny and wolves sample I already have we have a large percentage of the population."
"But not everyone, monkeys and bears just to name a few." said Naruto
"We will have to get them after we cure everyone else." added Tsunade
"What about our chakra, Naruto-kun is the only one who has chakra right now in any large number." said Sakura
"In reality you still have as much chakra as you had before you turn." said Tsunade "However the chakra can't be molded your animal body doesn't allow it that easily. Naruto can because he has so much of it."
"Can we wait and maybe try to find something better, so not as many people are lost forever?" asked Rin
"We can't more people will die in a war between the wolves/dogs and the cats." said Naruto "And the way you make it sound no cure will work on everyone."
"Correct those few where immune to the chakra virus that turned us where simply killed." said Tsunade "And from what Sai told me on the way here there are no real humans left."
"What of Sasuke?" asked Kane
"Well, once we have a cure I will face him and use my chakra." said Naruto "If he can't use his chakra then I should have the advantage."
"Naruto Sasuke will still want your chakra." said Tsunade
"I will use my human chakra not my demon chakra." said Naruto as he looked at Tsunade "Human chakra would be useless to him right?"
"Ya." said Tsunade
"Also if we cure all the cats he would have no one to work for him." said Naruto "Sasuke doesn't have the medical skill to use my chakra right."
"More than likely." said Tsunade
"Then that is what we will do." said Naruto
"I will have a cure ready once I give Tamaki her human mind back I will start working on cures for all of us." said Tsunade "However I will need a test subject."
"I will do it." said Kane
"Kane?" asked Rin
"Daddy?" asked Sakura
"Kiba and Naruto need to be around just in case someone attacks I have no ninja skills." said Kane "So I have to be the one who is the test subjects."
Sakura lowered her head however she knew he was right.
"Don't worry I am doing this for all of you." said Kane
"It should be ready in a few hours." said Tsunade
I know this is a very short chapter but I wanted to separate the Chapter when they decided how they are going to cure everyone and the reunion of families which will come next chapter. I hope you still liked this chapter. Now until next time please keep reading. Thanks Wilkins75
