Your POV

The village gates were finally coming into view after awhile of traveling. It was a bit easier this time though because when everyone, minus Saya, woke up in the morning we decided to make sure she stayed asleep and just jumped through trees at ninja speed while Kakashi carried her. That definitely meant smooth sailing for the rest of the mission since we didn't have to hear her annoying mouth talk.

"YAY I'M HOME!"

"Shit, who woke her up," Naruto said growling.

Kakashi put her down from his back, which caused her to run to the palace. "Might as well have woken her up since we're here."

Since we decided to walk there like normal people, we gazed at the surroundings of the kingdom. It seemed pretty typical: a castle, lots of trees, a village for "commoners" to live in. I didn't know why, but this place seemed oddly familiar.

"Hey, look at that statue," Sakura said pointing to the middle of the village. It was a marble statue of a girl, about six-years-old, with pigtails sitting Indian style and grinning ear to ear. Underneath of her had a plaque that said, "Our Dark Savior."

Holy shit, no wonder this place looked familiar. They remember after all this time?

You decided to keep that thought to yourself while you all entered the castle without another word about the statue. Saya was already there hugging the King and Queen, aka her parents.

"Did you have a nice trip honey?" the Queen asked. Saya was about to say something rude until she saw my glare towards her.

"Uh yes mother. It went perfectly well."

"Yes, indeed we didn't have much of a problem," Kakashi said agreeing. Sakura, Naruto, Sasuke and I sighed before mumbling in unison, "Speak for yourself."

"Splendid! And here are the wonderful ninja that protected you. May you please introduce yourselves so we can properly thank you?" asked the King.

Kakashi, once again, stepped up for us. "My name is Kakashi Hatake."

"I'm Naruto Uzumaki!"

"Sakura Haruno at your service."

"Sasuke Uchiha."

The Queen nodded. "From the Legendary Uchiha Clan. Very impressive."

"….Kurayami Shihaisha."

After my introduction, it was like the room froze. The King and Queen stared at me wide eyed before getting up to have a closer look at me. Honestly it freaked me out a bit.

"It can't be…" the Queen trailed off.

"Kurayami? Is that you?" said the King.

"Yes…do I know you too?"

"It's us, Aaron and Aya."

Whoa. Didn't see that one coming.

"YOU GUYS ARE FREAKING KING AND QUEEN AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ME?"

"YOU'RE A NINJA AND YOU DIDN'T TELL US?"

"I HAVEN'T SEEN YOU SINCE I WAS FREAKING SIX YEARS OLD!"

"WELL WE HAVEN'T SEEN YOU SINCE YOU SAVED ALL OF US FROM DESTRUCTION!"

I calmed down on that one. "Eh, that was no biggie."

"No biggie my ass," Aaron said before hugging me tightly. "You sure have grown Kurayami."

"People normally don't stay the same…"

"Oh stop being sassy and be happy to see us Dark Savior," Aya said before grabbing me from Aaron and hugging me herself. Meanwhile, everyone was staring at us with epic confusion evident on their faces.

"You didn't tell them I'm assuming," Aaron said awkwardly.

"Well it's not something I easily remember dude."

Saya interrupted us. "Wait, this is the famous Kurayami Shihaisha? The one that saved us all and if it weren't for her she'd be dead?"

"That would be me." Immediately she dropped to the floor and started bowing, apologizing for all the trouble she caused.

"Okay, can someone please explain to us why the hell Saya is being nice all of sudden and why Kura is this 'Dark Savior' you're all talking about?" Naruto said frustrated.

"Well see, what had happened was…"

FLASHBACK

I was six years old when I first came to the Moon Village after my parents had me travel. So far it's been three week and Aaron and Aya were the ones training me even though they were only eighteen at the time. Today was the Festival of the Moon and Aya was making me go even though I had a bad feeling something bad would happen.

"But I don't wanna goooooooo!"

"Come on you look so adorable in your kimono," she said taking a picture of me. She dressed me in a red and black kimono while me hair was held up in two pigtails.

Aaron came up smiling at me. "Don't worry, you'll have fun Kurayami."

Since I didn't exactly have a choice, I was dragged into the village and was overwhelmed by the amount of people here. All of a sudden, a loud explosion was heard and a dragon came out of nowhere breathing fire and destroying everything in its path. People ran and screamed in fear, but I stood in my place curious.

"Kurayami, we have to go!" Aaron said tugging at my small form.

"But dragons normally don't attack for no reason do they?" I asked still staring at it.

"It doesn't matter! We must leave," Aya responded picking me up. I pushed her off of me and attempted to run towards the dragon with my small legs. Since I was tiny, the beast didn't see me run under it to examine it more closely.

"KURAYAMI GET AWAY FROM IT!"

"But something's wrong," I whispered.

Under its tail I spotted a large branch stuck in it, probably causing the dragon pain. I went and tried to pull it out, only getting it out a few inches. Pouting, I used what little control of wind I had to aid me and eventually it slipped out of the dragon. The beast gave a loud roar, but calmed down and looked to where the branch had been. I grinned towards it, and reached my hand out to pet it happily while it groaned in satisfaction.

END FLASHBACK

"All hail Kurayami. All hail Kurayami."

"I will honor you oh great Kura."

"Is there anything I can do for you your greatness."

"I'm not worthy. I'm not worthy."

I sweat dropped when I finished my story and saw my comrades bowing and praising me. I think it was just a bit awkward that Sasuke of all people was also participating in this fiasco.

"Okay guys you can stop."

"But you're so…" Naruto trailed off. Sakura picked up for him. "Perfect."

Sasuke nodded. "We have to bask in your presence."

"Seriously, get your asses off the floor now." That made them scramble to their feet really fast.

Aaron spoke up. "Why don't you stay for the Moon Festival? It's the least we can do for all your troubles."

"Oh god not again…"

"This time there won't be a dragon," Aya said laughing.

"Can Sasuke be my date?"

"Leave me alone."

"Aaron, Aya, can you please keep Saya away from my boyfriend. During the whole mission she tried to steal him from me, failed epically, and then insulted her own gender saying women are supposed to be weak."

"Who taught you that Saya?" Aya asked a bit angered.

"Well…um…"

"And how could you try to steal the boyfriend of someone else? That is rude and horrible character! Plus he's so much older than you," Aaron chastised her.

I raised an eyebrow. "How old is she?"

"She's merely thirteen!"

The room became silent at that one. I just decided to tell Aaron and Aya I'd show everyone their rooms to stay in while they handled their daughter.

"Is that the youngest age that's hit on you Sasuke?" I asked teasingly.

"Let's never talk about it ever again."
