"You have to focus your mind and chakra, they must both be balanced."

Naruto was looking out at Miyu trying to focus her chakra to the center of her body. Over the past few months she was improving greatly, not only in her meditation but also in her close range fighting. Naruto took great pride with his student's improvements, but she still had a long way to go. Miyu still has some nightmares, but she doesn't coward down to her monster anymore. Miyu took another deep breath as she moved her arms to push forward and then back. She continued this motion until a blue and red chakra ball began to form. Naruto smiled at her success.

"Now pull it back in, but center it in your body."

Miyu slowly pulled the chakra back in and felt it swirl around in her chest. Naruto clapped as Miyu smiled.

"Very good Miyu!"

"Thank you sensei." she bowed.

"Very good indeed." another voice said.

Miyu turned her head to see Gaara, he was smiling at her. She ran other to him and hugged him, Gaara patted her head.

"Did you see me daddy?! Did you see?!" she cried.

"I did, I couldn't be more proud princess." he smiled.

"It's amazing how her chakra is the same color as your's and Hinata's." Naruto smiled.

"Indeed it is, Hinata made snacks for you two."

"WOOT! BREAK TIME MIYU!" Naruto cheered.

Miyu giggled at Naruto's actions and followed her sensei with Gaara behind her. They made it back to the house where they saw Hinata and Masayuki. Hinata was holding a small little bundle in her arms and Masayuki was looking over his baby brother. Miyu ran up to her mother and kissed her on the cheek, then she kissed the baby on his forehead. After Miyu ate her snack she started to play with Masayuki, while the adults talked.

"How is she doing Naruto-kun?" Hinata asked.

"She has been doing great, but she also has a long way to go."

"I saw her do fine today, what more does she have to learn?" Gaara asked.

"Well, it's hard to explain but she just needs more time. Until then I wouldn't send her on any missions, no matter how small."

"But that would kill her, she loves going on missions with her brother." Hinata sighed.

"I know, but I'm afraid she might react to blood the same way as Gaara once did. Until I am for sure it's best to not send her on missions."

"What can she do then?" Gaara questioned.

"Well she could help Tem at the Academy with the other students." Naruto suggested.

"No offence, but who would take her seriously? She is only six, there are kids that are older than her that still haven't graduated." Gaara replied.

Naruto pondered on his student's metal state, maybe she could control herself. He would have to test the waters on this one.

"Ok, let her just do missions where she is running errands or something. Nothing that involves combat in anyway." Naruto said.

"For how long?" Gaara asked.

"Until I can come back, I have to leave here soon, but I will return."

Gaara nodded at his friend then looked out at his children playing. Masayuki was training under Kankuro most the time and sometimes with Naruto. But he was coming to an age where he needed to train with his Byakugan, so Neji would come to the village when ever he could. Gaara never had to worry about him, Miyu was a different story. Gaara knew he could trust Naruto, he looked over at Hinata and smiled. She was more worried, but he could always claim her down. He looked at his newborn son and smiled, he took after Hinata this time. He had her hair and eyes, and soon enough he would be training. Time was flying by fast for him.

"How is little Mako doing anyways?!" Naruto smiled.

"He looks like his mother." Gaara smiled.

"He might have my features but he has your stern look and the dark rings around his eyes" Hinata giggled.

They all laughed and fond over the baby, it was getting dark and Naruto headed out. The family all stood by the gate and watched him walk away. Miyu had a uneasy feeling in her chest, Gaara looked down at her and noticed.

"What's wrong Miyu?"

"Daddy, Is Naruto-sensei going to be okay?"

"Of course he is, why would you say that?"

"I just have a bad feeling."

They all walked back to the house and everyone had went to bed. Gaara was in his office still working, while Miyu laid in her bed wide awake. She was still worried and something was bothering her.

My my my princess your still awake? Isn't it past your bedtime baby?! BAHAHAHAHAHA

Leave me be beast, I have to much to worry about. I don't need you bothering me! NOW GO AWAY!

Hehehe, I can never leave you! We are one! Besides who else can I talk to?! Hummmmm? Look kid we got off on the wrong foot, My name is Sukaku.

I wish not to be your friend! You caused me pain, you told me to kill! How could I ever trust you?

HAHAHA, you are your father's daughter! I miss that little sand brat. Did you know that me and your daddy go way back?

Enough with your lies beast!

Oh but it's true! I use to be one with your father! I was sealed in him when he was born! We had some great times together.

Impossible, the beast that was sealed in my father was taken from him. Even if it was true, my father would never seal a beast inside of me!

Well kid your right on that one, hehe, but I have my ways.

Then how?

Simple, I am connected to your father by blood, after the Great War was over that damn group that pulled me from him were all killed. Without them I can't live without a host, they did some mumbo jumbo to me. So my sprit went back to your father but not really.

What do you mean?

For some reason I was pulled into you. Don't ask me how brat, I don't know. I figured I could control you better, but I guess I was wrong, stupid sand brat.

This can't be true, it's impossible! Your lying to me!

Fine if you don't believe me why don't you go ask him for yourself? Tell your daddy I said hello BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

And like that the beast had left her. Could it be true? Miyu jumped out of her bed and ran towards her father's office. She had to know, she had to, was the beast just toying with her? Miyu stopped in front of the door and knocked on it softy, she herd her father say come in. She walked in his office, he looked at her and smiled.

"Your up late sweetheart, anything wrong?" he asked.

"No, I was just thinking about a few things."

Miyu stood there for a moment almost too scared to ask him the questions swirling around in her mind.

"Daddy can I ask you something."

"Sure, come here princess."

Gaara held his arms out and Miyu ran to him, he put her on his lap and patted her back.

"What would you like you ask me?"

Miyu gulped.

"Daddy, what was the name of the beast that was sealed inside of you?"

Gaara raised an eyebrow at this question, he hadn't though about Sukaku in years.

"Why would you want to know that?"

"Umm, to get a better understanding of what I might be dealing with." she lied.

Gaara knew she needed to know as much as she could, but her demon was different from his. His father cursed him with Sukaku, he did no such thing to hurt Miyu. She was going to find out one way or another, might as well be him to tell her.

"The name of the beast that was sealed inside me was….Sukaku"

Miyu's eyes grew wide and she started to shake. How could this be possible? How?

BAHAHAHAHAHA I TOLD YOU! Now tell your daddy I said hiiiiiii

SHUT UP!

Gaara looked at his daughter reaction and begin to worry.

"What is it? What is wrong?!"

Miyu pulled herself together, he couldn't know, not yet.

"I'm sorry daddy! I read a lot on the tailed beast and didn't know that one was sealed in you."

Gaara relaxed a bit.

"Yes, but now he is gone and no longer a problem. All we need to know is what demon is hurting you." he patted her head.

IT'S ME OLD FRIEND!BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

SHUT UP!

"It is late, you need to be in bed."

"Okay."

She jumped off his lap and walked to the door, still in shock over the new information she had. Then she remembered one last thing she had to know, she turned at to Gaara.

"Daddy, I have one more question!"

"Yes?"

"Does Naruto-sensei have nightmares too?"

Gaara shifted at her question, it was true that he did have nightmares but Miyu didn't need to know that. He shouldn't have to lie to her.

"He does…..but for different reasons." Gaara trailed off.

" Why?"

"That is something you are not old enough to know yet."

"Okay, it's just I herd him crying one night."

Gaara just stared at her.

"He kept on saying two names, then he stopped. I though he had fallen sleep but then he said thank you a lot."

"He has had a troubled past and it haunts him."

"It' makes me feel better that Naruto-sensei knows how I feel sometimes. I hope he doesn't have any on his way home."

"Me too sweetheart, me too" Gaara sighed.

"Good Night Daddy."

"Good Night Miyu."

Miyu shut the door than walked back to her room, she laid down on her bed and sighed. How was this possible? How could her father's demon be her own? She was so confused.

Seeeeeeeee princess! I was right!

That does not change anything! I will not befriend you!

Face it kid were stuck together, might as well get along. You dad trusted me sometimes, why can't you do the same? Come on, I can help you become stronger!

No.

Come on! I will let you sleep! No more nightmares! I promise! Just be my friend hehehe.

I will think upon it.

She blocked out his begging pleas with her, and started to drift away into sleep. She hopes Naruto-sensei was getting a good nights rest.

Naruto was sitting in the training field, where they use to train. He closed his eyes to remember, when he opened them he saw Sakura. She was bloody and mangled. Naruto jumped back.

"Why didn't you save me? Why didn't you keep your promise? YOU PROMISED ME!" Sakura screamed.

"I tired! I tried with all my might Sakura! I'm sorry, please forgive me." Naruto cried.

"You said you would save me, WHY DIDN'T YOU?!"

Naruto turned to see Sasuke, his body bleeding out with the kunai still in his gut. They moved closer to Naruto.

"IT'S YOU FAULT, YOU KILLED US!"

"No no no no no! I tried!" he cried.

"IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT!"

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Naruto woke up screaming, he was sweating, his heart was beating. Within seconds of his scream, four AUBU ninjas swarmed in his tent.

"Hokage-san are you alright?!" one asked.

Naruto still gasping for air rested his head in his hand.

"Yes, I'm fine, just another nightmare, just another nightmare."

"As long as your ok Hokage-sama." another said.

"You guys, just call me Naruto, I know who you all are." Naruto smiled.

The four took off their masks, it was Neji, Kiba, Shino and Lee.

"It's not professional to call our boss by his first name." Shino sighed.

"Yea you moron!" Kiba barked.

Neji just shook his head and put his mask back on. The others followed.

"Please get your youthful rest Hokage-sama!" Lee cheered.

"I will, thanks you guys." Naruto smiled again.

After they all left, Naruto fell back against his pillow. His arms where crossed over his face, he wanted to cry again. They were right, it was his fault, it was all his fault. Naruto closed his eyes almost ready to cry. Then he felt the soft touch, he opened his eyes to see his goddess. He couldn't see her face, every time he tried to get up he couldn't, it was if his body was paralyzed. It bother him that he couldn't see her face but her touch was all he needed.

"My beautiful goddess, you always save me."

She rubbed his head, and wiped his tears away.

"Where are you? Who are you? I need you now, please tell me something." he begged.

She bent down and kissed his forehead.

"Soon" she whispered.

Naruto blinked for a second, and she was gone. He looked around his tent, nothing, he was alone. He turned on his side and balled up. She said soon, all he had to do was wait for her, he didn't care how long. If he had to wait a hundred year he could, anything for her. Soon she would be in his arms…..soon.

Ahhhh hey fans, bet you all wanna kill me about now. I'm sorry for the looooonnnnng wait! But I still love you guys and you still love me right? Right? Hehehehehe anywho, I still love reviews and your e-mails. Until next time! See you next chapter!
