Okay I am getting angry emails for the next chapter. So, I stopped working on the next chapter of Under the Silver Moon to stop the angry emails.

Like always I DO NOT OWN Naruto or Hellsing.

Thank you for all the R&R.

Chapter 23

Snake hiding in the Grass

Well with two members of Team 7 out of the finals that left Sai and the remaining Rookies from Konoha and the other Genin to finish these rounds to see who will be fighting who in front of all the nobles and bring honor to their villages.

The screen began to flash once more, and it landed on Kiba Inuzuka of Konoha vs. Tenchi of Iwa.

The two fighters walked down to the ring. Kiba looked at the boy and smirked. "Bring you're A game." He told the boy.

Tenchi is a boy with black eyes and short black hair that is a little spikey on the top with a rattail. He wore a simple grey kimono top with black ANBU style pants and black shinobi sandals. "I'll make you eat those words dog breath." He said with a smirk as he pulled out his Katana.

Kiba looked over at Akamaru and smirked at him. "Are you ready buddy?" He asked his partner and best friend.

"Bark." Said Akamaru as he wagged his tail as he caught the pill that Kiba throw at him. "Man beast clone." Called out Kiba as Akamaru turned into him.

Both Kiba's attacked Tenchi from both sides ramming their shoulders into him crushing him. The boy never knew what happen as he fell to the ground out cold.

"Well that was boring but winner Kiba." Said Alucard as he never even got to start the match.

The medics came and took the boy away.

"That was lame. But hell I can't bitch." Said Kiba as he smirked.

Somewhere in a Snake hole

Kabuto looked at a tube with a white snake with long black hair with golden eyes glaring at the teenager. "It appears your body was destroyed by something new. I have heard rumors in the village that the Uzumaki devil is back and that is what killed your last body." He told the snake in the tube.

"I will worry about that man later and the damn Kyubi brat. Now I just need me a body. Sadly I didn't get to mark Sasuke-kun before I was killed." Hissed Orochimaru as he looked around him. "Find me a body for I need to be ready in one-month time for the final round."

"I do have the Kazekage under a jutsu and his body would be good use for you." Said Kabuto.

"Fine his Gold release would come in handy. Get his body ready for me." Said Orochimaru.

Kabuto nodded his head and left the lab to get Raza's body ready for his master.

Back in the Finals

"Well my little lovely's we are to our final Match. "Naruto Uzumaki vs. Krillin of Iwa." Said Alucard.

Naruto jumped over the railing as she landed in front of Alucard. "Hey gramps." As Krillin walked down the stairs to the battle ground.

"Hello my little kit." Said Alucard as he grinned at Naruto. "Alright you two are you ready for the final round?" He asked them.

"Yeah I'm ready blondie will not know what hit her." Said Krillin.

Naruto smirked at the boy. "Sure I'm ready." She said as she stood their relaxed as Krillin got into a fighting stance.

Krillin rushed the girl with his fist raised high as Naruto side stepped him and rammed her elbow into the back of his skull and spun on her heel and her knee connected with her stomach sending him flying into the wall. He was out cold before he even hit the wall.

"Winner Naruto Uzumaki." Said Alucard with a Grin.

Alright brat line up for we can get the matches for the final round that will take place in one month's time.

Naruto, Shikamaru, Gaara, Kankuro, Temari, Washu, Kiba, Ino, Shino, Yugito, Karui all stood before Alucard, Ibiki and Anko.

Anko walked forward with a box. "Brats draw lots." She told them.

Naruto stepped forth and drew out a slip of paper. "4."

Shikamaru stepped up next. "7"

Gaara was next. "3."

Kankuro was next. "1."

Temari was after him. "8."

Washu want after. "5."

Kiba went after here. "6."

Ino went next. "10"

Shino was after her. "2."

Yugito was after him. "9."

Karui was the final one. "11."

Ibiki wrote down the names in the slots. "Kankuro vs. Shino. Gaara Vs. Naruto. Washu vs. Kiba. Shikamaru vs. Temari. Yugito vs. Ino and who ever wins in that fight with fight Karui." He told them.

Alucard stepped forth and looked at everyone. "You have one month of training and coming up with something new to put up a show for all the lazy nobles that will be showing up in one months' time." He told the fighters as they all left and met up with their teammates and sensei.

Back in the village

"There is something in the air. Something big is happening and we need to train for whatever is to come." Said Naruto as she looked at her teammates and sensei's.

"You feel it as well?" Asked Zabuza as he grinned at the girl.

Naruto just nodded her head as she looked at the large man before her.

"We have teams from Kumo and Iwa here that made it to the final round. This means that we will have the Kage's from their villages here in one months' time. As well the children of the Kazekage children made it to the final round as well.

"As well beside myself we have two other Jinchuriki's in the finals." Said Naruto as she looked a little worried about that.

"What do you mean we have two other Jinchuriki's in the village?" Asked Asuma. "My father never said anything about that.

Naruto looked at him feeling a little uneasy. "Well Gaara is the Jinchuriki of the one tail and the blonde hair girl Yugito is also the holder of the two tails."

Alucard smirked at them. "Then this will be a test for you and Ino to see how well you will handle fighting someone with something that isn't expected." He told them.

Ino paled at hearing the girl she is fighting is a holder of a tailed beast. "Then that makes my family jutsu useless against her for the beast can make trouble for me or take over my body." She said as she tried to figure something out.

"Then you will rely on your other skills we have been training you in since we have return form the Land of Wave." Said Zabuza as she grinned. "Also don't forget you are able to use water at your will and have a strong affection for it. For that will help you. So let's build your chakra and work on water jutsus also you have your guns and sword skills as well. So you always have something to fall back on." He reassured the girl.

Ino smiled at this. "Yeah your right. I just allowed myself to freak out over the girl being a holder of a great beast." She just laughed as she finally relaxed.

"Gaara will be a little troublesome for his seal isn't stable and hasn't slept in a very long time by the looks of it with the rings around his eyes." Said Naruto said with a sigh. "He will put up a good fight for me and I will have to go all out on him. Even Kurama agrees with this."

"Well why don't you guys get some rest for today and tomorrow we will have our training." Said Asuma as he could see his students are tried and needed some rest.

They all nodded their heads and went home for a good night's rest and long baths for wash away all the blood and dirt off of them form the last match.

Alucard looked down at Naruto as he was walking on her left as Zabuza was on her right. "We will be working on something to stop the boy before he let's loose his beast and knock him out." He told the girl with a wicked grin.

"With a few of the seals you have been working on should help you seal off chakra and knock him out." Said Zabuza with a grin as well.

Naruto looked at the two men. "Maybe I saw something in one of the scrolls that will seal off all tail beast chakra for about a day and out them to sleep for that time as well. As well with me working with my chains I should be able to finish the match in about 2 minutes flat." She told them both.

They both nodded their heads in agreement about it.

"I can also teach Ino the seal and she can use it for her own match if she needs it as well." Said Naruto with a grin. She was coming up with a plan to help her teammate as well.

But the month to come was going to push them to limits they never knew they had and overcome many things in their lives.

Hokage tower

Sir Integra saw a scroll for the Raikage under several piles of paper. She arched an eyebrow at this and pulled it from under the papers and watch the stack fall over and land on Sarutobi as he was sitting on the floor working on several documents of the civilian council who had their seals broken by Jiraiya.

"AHHH!" A scream was heard as the paper landed on him and ANBU snickered as they came out of their hiding places and helped their Leader out form under it all and gather them all making sure not to take what he was working on.

"What was that about Sir Integra?" Asked Sarutobi as she was now seated in a chair.

She looked up at him form the scroll. "Well that useless woman you call your Secretary never gave either of us that Scroll that was sent from the Raikage." She told him with a glare. She went back to reading it and arched a brow at this.

"It appears he is informing us that his brother Killer B and one of his student's by the name Yugito Nii are going to be in the village they are their villages Jinchuriki's will be in our village for the Chunin exams and not wanting to make trouble. But he will be here for the final round if any of his teams make it to the final round. As well he would like to speak to use about an alliance and trade." Said Sir Integra as Alucard walked into her office with a grin.

"Well it is good you know about one of them but Suna did not send you a scroll about Kazakage's son is also a Jinchuriki as well?" Asked Alucard as he looked at the two.

Integra looked at the other scrolls with the ones that where next to the Raikage's. "No there isn't anything from Raza. But we also have one from Iwa." She said as she open the scroll and began reading it as well.

"Well we are going to have 4 of the 5 kages in the village during the finals." Said Sir Integra as she looked annoyed.

"Well this will be fun." Said Alucard as he grinned. "Ino is fighting a Jinchuriki by the way love." He told Integra.

Integra slammed her hands on her new desk as she shot up narrowing her eyes at her husband. In a dangerous quiet voice she spoke. "What did you just say?"

"Ino drew the lot that she will be facing Yugito Nii from Kumo. But she was scared at first, but she believes she will be fine and knows she can stop the fight anytime and forfeit if it gets out of hand." Said Alucard as she just grinned.

"Fine do your job and make sure she doesn't get killed." Said Integra as Alucard handed her the match line up.

Integra looked down at it froze once more. He saw Naruto vs. Gaara the son of Kazekage and their Jinchuriki. Her eye slowly began to twitch as Sarutobi slowly got up and made his way for his office door. He didn't want anything to do with what was going to happen next. Even ANBU made their escape at the same time.

"Why didn't you tell me Naruto was going to be fighting another Jinchuriki?" Asked Sir Integra in a sickly-sweet voice.

He smirked even more. "For I didn't think much about it. For Naruto told me she believes she can handle the boy in 2 minutes flat. We will be working her and the others to the ground until the last two days before the finals." He told his wife as he walked up to her and pulled her into a kiss.

Integra relaxed into his kiss. "Don't worry love. All will be fine. Her blood is slowly awakening but she isn't going to be truly like us, but she will walk along with us for a long time."

"I will not worry for now. But if anything happens. It will be your ass." Said Sir Integra as she smirked at her husband as she saw him pale just a little. For an unhappy wife means no love making for a very long time. It was always better for him to keep her happy for he was happy in the bedroom.

Naruto sitting in her bedroom while a chill ran down her spine. 'I'm not going to like what's going to come.' She thought to herself as she slowly stood up to go take a long bath.

"No one is going to enjoy what's going to be happening during the month. While you are sleeping you will be in your mindscape training with me. So you will be training 24/7 kit." Said Kurama as he laughed at Naruto falling into her tub crying as it was filling with hot water and bubbles.

"But Kurama!" Whined Naruto.

"Not buts. With my family here. They will see that you are the Queen over them as I am King over their asses." Growled out Kurama with a smirk.

"Fine you slave driver." Grumbled Naruto as she turned off the water and soaked for over an hour falling asleep a couple of times.

I hope this can hold a few of you over until I can get back to it. For I need to work on other chapters as well... Yeah, I know I need a beta but I'm so irregular with my posting I don't think I could keep a beta.
