Sorry for the wait. I have been having issues getting motivated. But, I will try to get all new chapters out for each story.

Thank you for hanging in there with me.

Like always I do not own Shadow Skill or Naruto.

Chapter 10

From warrior to Princess

The group made its way to the village that surrounded a large ancient stone castle with walls going up as highs the ones that surround Konoha.

Narita looked around the village with wide eyes. She saw several injuries people moving around limping with bandages wrapped around them.

Tenchi saw the look in the young Princesses eyes. "I happen last night during a night raid. No, one was killed but many were serval injured." He told her with a sad smile. "Most severally injured were my men." He trailed off.

Dais eyes harden as he clenched his fist. "I should have not gone." He said in a low growl.

"You did not know this was going to happen." Said Misha as she looked up at her Prince.

"She is right." Said Narita as she wrapped her arm around her uncles left arm.

Dais just nodded his head. They could see damage to several homes and businesses. But, one thing that put Dais at ease was when he saw the children running and playing. No fear in their eyes or hearts.

The group walked for another 15 minutes till they arrived before that giant gates before the castle.

"Wow this place is huge." Said Kiba and Narita as one.

The Genin just snickered at their reaction.

The huge gates open and there stood several old men. Each dressed in fine and expensive silk robes.

'Bastards never change. Dress themselves in the finest as the people of the kingdom suffer.' Said Ella as she looked on with annoyance.

'Greed is a powerful thing. Kit do not trust those men. Something is off about them.' Said Kurama as he narrowed his eyes on a man with long black hair that had white streaks running along it.

'Okay.' Thought Narita as her eyes when to the same man Kurama was glaring at.

"Prince Dais. We are so grateful for your safe return home." Said the man Narita watched.

"Thank you Councilmen Vy." Said Dais as he nodded his head to the now named Vy.

Vy's eyes traveled towards Narita. For a faction of a second there was a look of hate. But, it was quickly replaced with shock. "Whose these lovely young lady?" He asked as he took a step towards her.

Narita glared the man down as she took a step towards him. "I am the daughter of Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki-Namikaze. I am Narita Ella Uzumaki-Namikaze." She introduced herself to the man.

'Be very careful with him.' Said Ella as she glared at the man.

'I know. I saw it too.' She said in thought.

A robust man pushed past Vy. "Where is Prince Minato." He said looking around and taking Narita into his arms and hugging the life out of the poor girl.

Dais cleared his throat. "I'm sadly to inform everyone here. My brother Minato Namikaze passed away 15 years ago." He told the other 3 men.

The robust man dropped Narita as tears began to roll down his check. "No!" He cried in a horsed whisper.

"I am so Li." Said Dais as he placed his hand on the man's shoulder.

All those from Konoha looked at the man and the other 2 crying while Vy held himself still from this news.

"Allow us to retire into the castle. There we are able to talk more in private." Said Vy as the others nodded their heads. 'It appears I did finally get rid of that little pest.' He thought to himself.

Ibiki during this whole time watched Vy and saw the dark look he gave Narita. 'Hn. It appears I found of the many behind this.' He thought as he looked over at Anko who only slightly nodded her head to her boss.

Docks

The last dock away from the village. Stood an old warehouse. Inside sat a man on a throne like chair. Beside him leaning next him was a large sword that look like an over size meat cleaver. He sat there in the dark quietly.

"Zabuza-sama." Said the masked figure as they appeared knelt before him.

"What is it?" Asked the now named Zabuza as his black eyes looked down at the figure.

"The brothers had failed. Dais Namikaze has return. But, he didn't return alone." Said the masked figure.

"Haku are you sure?" Asked Zabuza.

"Yes, Zabuza-sama. The Prince return with several teams from Konoha. But, one person in particular caught my attention." Said the now named Haku.

Zabuza nodded his head for Haku to go on.

"It appears Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki had a child." Said Haku.

"Really? This could get us a big payday from Iwa or Kumo." Said Zabuza as he sat forward in his chair.

"Yes, she is the crowned Princess. So, if Dais dies. She will take over." Said Haku.

'Hmm.. The money for the bounty that was set so long ago for any child of either of those two could pay for the revolutionary war back in Kiri.' Thought Zabuza as he sat back.

Cargo ship

Tiny man sat in a large cabin looking over documents. "I need to finish my business here and get back to The Wave." He said to himself.

Castle

"ANBU. Go gather information on whose been attacking. Jonin I want you to take with the owners of the businesses that have destroyed off of this list." Ordered Ibiki as he looked over those under him.

With a nod they all vanished.

Anko looked at her boss. "What do you got for me?" She asked him.

"Anko you will be with Narita at all time. I will be with Dais-sama as well." Said Ibiki as he walked away.

Anko just grinned as she went to fined the young Princess.

A maid had shown all the girls to one very large room with several beds. Ino and Sakura squealed as they saw the room.

"Mistress. Dinner will be ready in three hours. Why don't your ladies in wait freshen up as well prepare your attire for the evening." Said the head maid.

Anko appeared behind the woman. "I guess my outfit isn't suited for tonight's dinner?" She asked with a smirk.

The maid turned and her eyes grew wide with horror. "Madam please cover yourself there are very impressionable young ladies and men within the castles walls." She told Anko.

Anko just waved her off and laughed as she walked to the large bathroom. With a tub that could pass for a pool. "Fine." Was all Anko said as she vanished.

The others fallowed behind Anko and vanished behind the doors. The maids looked at each other.

"Ninjas dress very interesting." The youngest of the maids said as they set out the dresses for each respected young lady.

The guys were not fair any better. The maids fussed over them. Taking measurements and showing them to their large bathroom.

Kakashi looked around. "This is going to be fun." He said as he eye smiled.

"Yeah, let's see how long that mask last with those ladies." Said Asuma with a smirk.

Kakashi paled. As he looked at the other man.

"We are with Nobles and we will do what is needed to fit in." Said Ibiki with a underlining growl in his voice as he sunk down into the hot spring.

Out of fear or respect each male nodded their heads at the scar man.

Konoha

Inochi walked into the Hokage's office. "Hokage-sama, I have the reports from the men that Team Gai caught a few days ago." He told his aged leader.

"Please do tell." Said Sarutobi as he placed his pen down.

"They had been hired along with Zabuza The Demon of the Mist with his Apprentice. To kill Dais Namikaze and those traveling with him." Said Inochi as his eyes studied the man before him.

Sarutobi nodded his head. "I hope those I've sent with them will be able to handle what is to come. But, sent word to them and if needed be key a seal to Ibiki's blood." He told Inochi.

Said man nodded his head and sent all the information that had been gather to his boss.
