Kale's POV

"Remember focus the chakra."

"I know old man this is the third time I've done this, quit distracting me."

"Just make sure the conduit is charge, if you screw up the thing will suck out more Chakra than it ever focuses."

"Be quiet I'm almost there…" I took a breath "HA!"

I clapped my hands and the staff glowed before fading.

"Good, number three is complete." I said looking at the staff.

I had been training with Uncle for just about two years now, my skills have increased exponentially, I'm up to using three regulator staves. I've developed dozens of new supporting auras and Jutsu. I haven't slacked off on my ninja duties, I recently managed to become a Chunin.

I strapped the third staff to my back, it joined the other two, one looks like a big dream catcher, the other like a big stick with a skull charm dangling off it, and this one is metallic and has a large blue crystal in the top.

In terms of my physical appearance, I'm taller, a little more tones, my hair looks less formal, I still comb it over in a part but I let it lay like bangs a little more. My robes are a little more ornate and slightly longer, now going to my ankles instead of my knees.

"We'll camp out for the night and head back for the village in the morning." Uncle said.

"Right." I said pulling out a scroll "Tenten packed this premade for us. Release!"

I popped the scroll and a prefabricated tent with two sleeping bags inside popped up.

Tenten can practically fit anything into one of these scrolls, she's a good friend to have.

Uncle and I weren't in the tent long before we heard a loud commotion in the forest.

"Should we check it out?" I asked.

"Better safe than sorry." Uncle nodded grabbing his flaming staff "Let's go!"

We dashed through the trees and found a crater and three people. Two of them he black cloaks with red clouds on them, the other was a girl with green hair, fishnet under garments and tan cover garments, she also had a large red roll on her back. On her arm was a headband for The Village Hidden Behind the Waterfalls, but it was scratched out, as if she left.

"What do you want with Fu?" the girl asked.

"Akatsuki…" Uncle hissed "They're after the girl?"

"RAH!" the one cloaked man took out a massive wrapped up sword and swung it at her.

"Leave Fu alone!" the girl yelled growing bug wings and fluttering back.

"Don't look into his eyes!" Uncle yelled as the other man came up next to her "Kale seal him."

I threw my three staves around the man closeted to Fu.

What is she doing here…I haven't seen this girl in two years…and we just meet up in the forest?

"Three Layer Seal!" I moved my hands "Frostbite!"

A icy spike appeared but the man jumped up.

"Kisame we're leaving." The man said.

"Itachi…the girl."

"She's not that important right now, we can't take one of the Four, a Jinchuriki and the boy on our own…we should fall back."

"Fine…you live for now girl." The blue skinned man said as the two ran off.

The two men left and now we were standing there with the girl.

"Hmm?" she looked at me "AH, Fu remembers you!"

"Yes, we met a few years ago." I smiled.

"Right, right…Fu remembers…your name is…Kale!" I perked up.

"You're speaking in the third person?" I asked.

"People told Fu to stop that…but now Fu can't." she giggled.

"Girl." Uncle said "Why were you fighting The Akatsuki?"

"Those two attacked Fu on her way to an inn." Fu explained.

Uncle looked over "There is only reason they should have been attacking you, and they called you a Jinchuriki."

Fu frowned "Fu left Takigakure because everyone judged her…Fu is the Jinchuriki for the Seven Tailed beast."

"Um…Jinchuriki?" I asked.

"Another name for the hosts of the tailed beasts, you know one, Gaara of the Desert is the Jinchuriki of the One Tailed Beast." Uncle explained.

"Fu will be going now."

"No." Uncle shook his head "The Akatsuki are after you, for your own protection you are coming with us."

"Fu can protect herself." she said.

"Fu." I smiled "We're not going to let you walk away and get killed."

"Fine…Fu will stay, but only because she has no place to stay for the night." The girl said.

We went back to our tent, Fu go settled inside while Uncle and I set up a barrier field and invisibility field to hide and protect us. Uncle took watch for the night and I sat in the tent with Fu.

"You okay?" I asked.

"Fu is fine." The girl smiled "A little shaken up but fine."

"When we get back the Leaf Village we'll take you to see the Hokage and she'll decide what's up."

"She'll hate Fu…or use her." Fu frowned "people always try and use Fu."

"Don't worry, Tsunade is very kind, she'll trust you, I know it." I smiled.

"Your smile." She giggled "Fu feels like she shouldn't worry at all! Fu hasn't felt this happy in a long time."

"I'm glad." I smiled.

"I was scared…but Fu was happy someone came to save me." She said.

Later

We arrived back in Konoha the next day and took Fu to see the Hokage.

"Please…can you not mention that Fu is a Jinchuriki?" she begged "they will take away Fu's freedom, they won't let her leave. If they ask Fu will stay in the village but not if they force her."

"I don't know, how am I gonna explain that whole Akatsuki thing?"

"Leave it to me!" she gave me thumbs up and a smile.

"Okay, Tsunade's got a temper so be polite." I told her.

I knocked on the door and was told to enter.

"Hey old hag." I said.

"Shut up brat." She growled "What do you want."

"Ma'am this is Fu." I said introducing the girl.

"Hello." Fu bowed.

I explained to Tsunade that we found Fu being attacked by Akatsuki in the woods.

"Why were they after you?" she asked Fu.

"Fu is unsure, just that they attacked her." The girl said.

Tsunade scanned her "I'll let Takigakure know."

"No!" Fu yelled "Fu left the village, they will be upset if they think I bought a bad omen on them."

"I really should…are you a missing Ninja?"

"No, Fu left because no one likes her in the village, she is looking for a new home." The girl explained.

"Well if you're a target of Akatsuki you're an ally to the Leaf." Tsunade said "I can't let you leave so you'll be staying in our village, you can work with us."

"Fu thanks you!" the girl smiled "I am a trained ninja, and Fu knows she will be useful!"

Tsunade looked at me "You're in charge of her."

"Yes Ma'am, thanks I'm sure people will learn to love Fu."

I took Fu outside, Tsunade had a few open places around the village so she was letting Fu stay there.

"Oh hey Sakura." I waved.

"Hi." She walked up "Who's this."

"Hello, I am Fu." My new friend said shaking her hand "I'm new here so let's get along."

"Umm…sure." Sakura smiled "I'm sure we'll get alone great."

I wonder how much longer it will be till Naruto gets back, I wonder how he and Fu will interact.
