Ino looked around the room Haku shared with Naruto and
Hinata. "So, when are Naruto and Hinata due home?"

Haku took on a thoughtful pose. "Well, Hinata said
she'd be home around eight, and Naruto is with Jiraiya training, so he'll
probably be home late."

Ino noticed it was only a couple of minutes before five.
Embracing Haku, Ino giggled. "Why don't we do something to pass the
time?" Ino ground her pelvis against Haku's, getting a moan from the older
kunoichi. Ino's hands deftly undid Haku's pants as she sunk to her knees.

Haku groaned as she felt Ino remove her hardness from its
confines. Looking down upon Ino's mischievous grin, Haku activated the sound
seals.

Naruto, Shikamaru, and Jiraiya stepped out of the pagoda and
Naruto turned to Jiraiya. "Remember, Miko-sensei wants you here for the
ritual, so be here by nine. Believe me; you don't want to be late when it comes
to her!"

Jiraiya nodded. "Well then, I'll see you two later
then." And with a poof, he was gone.

Naruto looked over to Shika with a grin. "Hey Shika,
how about we get some ramen?"

Shikamaru smirked; no matter what changes Naruto went
through, he was still the same ramen-oholic. "Sure, I could go for a bowl
or two."

"Great I just need to grab my wallet." Naruto
walked over to the door to the room he shared with Haku and Hinata with Shika
right behind him. When Naruto slid open the door, he was greeted by the scene
of Ino sucking on Haku's cock as it unloaded into the blondes�f mouth. Haku
noticed the door open and, to her horror, there stood both Naruto and
Shikamaru. Naruto quickly shut the door and turned to Shika. "Um, I can
explain."

Shikamaru barely registered what Naruto had said while his
brain rebooted. After regaining the ability of cognitive thought, his brain
went into overdrive. "Haku is a hermaphrodite, isn't she?"

Naruto nodded. "Please Shika, don't..."

Naruto was silenced by Shika. Looking into Naruto's eyes, he
could see the turmoil. With a sigh, he looked at the door. "Naruto, you
don't need to ask me not to tell anyone. As far as I'm concerned, there is
nothing wrong with Haku, or your relationship. It just came as a surprise, that
and seeing the sister figure from my childhood going at it with my soon to be
adopted sister kind of shocked me."

Naruto gave Shika a sheepish smile. "Thanks Shika, I
just have to convince Haku that you don't hate her."

Shika leaned against the wall as Naruto entered the room.
Soon after, Ino come out with a deep blush but that didn't stop her from laying
into Shika. "Shika you better...�h Ino was surprised when Shika locked eyes
with her and made a stopping motion with his hand.

"Ino, as I just finished telling Naruto. I do not think
any less now of Haku after learning what she is." After taking a breath,
he looked out toward the garden. "The thing that surprised me most was
seeing the two of you going at it. You, me and Chouji grew up as siblings, so
seeing you with my soon to be adopted sister kind of freaked me out."

Ino quirked an eyebrow at this new bit of news before nearly
panicking. "Did something happen to your parents?"

Shika shook his head. "No, but I was invited to join
Miko's clan in which Naruto, Haku and recently Hinata are a part of. It's
mostly to help bolster their numbers, but there are also political reasons
behind it.

Ino looked over to Shika with surprise. "I didn't know
Miko-sensei was part of a clan. What's the clans�f name?"

Shika looked apprehensive to reveal any more, but was saved
by Naruto. Opening the door, he motioned them in. As they entered, Shika
noticed Haku wouldn't meet his gaze.

Deciding that letting this awkwardness continue would be far
too troublesome, Shika kneeled in front of her as she sat on the futon. Looking
directly at her, he smiled slightly. "Haku, know that I don't think of you
any differently than I did before. You just have to understand that it did
shock me. I mean, wouldn't you be shocked if you walked in on someone you grew
up with, that you though of as a sister, going at it with your soon to be
adopted sister?"

Haku couldn't help but smile a little. Shika really didn't
see her as a freak. "Yeah, I guess that would kind of freak me out
too." Then, what Shika said finally hit her. "You accepted
Miko-sensei's offer! That's great, welcome to the family!" Haku hugged Shika.

Ino smiled, but she wanted answers. "While this is all
well and good, what would be the point of Shika being adopted into the clan?
Shouldn't he be married into it to continue the bloodline? Otherwise all you
get is a branch family of Nara don't you?"

Sometimes Naruto thought that Ino was too smart for her own
good, but seeing as she would most likely find out sooner or later, he let out
a sigh. "Ino, our clan is different than other clans, but before I
continue, you must realize that what you learn here can not be repeated. Only
the Hokage, Kakashi, Shika's parents and the clan itself know about it and it
is considered an SS class secret of the village. Breaking a secret of this
magnitude grants you a minimum of no less than five years in the ANBU
Interrogation and Torture Division and then a slow death by Katon Jutsu."

Ino gasped. She knew about the ANBU 'IT' Division because
her father was in command of the Interrogation portion, being the best in her
clan bloodline. She thought about it for a while, and then Ino nodded. "I
understand. If you're willing to trust me with this secret, then I'm willing to
protect it."

Naruto nodded. "Our clan is different than others
because we are no longer human." As if to punctuate his announcement,
Naruto and Haku let there illusions fall. "We are the ancient protectors
of the Land of Fire and newest allies to Konoha, we are the Kitsune Demon
Clan."

It was now Ino's turn to reboot her brain, but when she
finally was able to talk, she turned to Naruto "How? How can the Kitsune
be Konoha's allies after what happened with Kyuubi?"

Naruto smirked. "Don't worry; we have forgiven Konoha
for its transgressions."

Ino now rose to anger. "What do you mean, our
transgressions?! We were the one that were attacked!"

Naruto shook his head. "And you can blame the Uchiha
for that. Kyuubi had come peacefully to Konoha to collect payment for giving
the Uchiha their precious Sharingan, but their arrogance knew no bounds. As
written in the contract made between the Uchiha and Kyuubi, refusal of payment resulted
in death for the entire clan. When Kyuubi was handing out their punishment,
Konoha mistook it as an attack on Konoha itself, for the Uchiha never told the
village of their contract." Naruto gave Ino some time to soak it in before
continuing. "What you also don't know is that Kyuubi wasn't killed, but
sealed within a newborn child. That child was me." Naruto continued to
bring Ino up to speed with current events. When it was over, Ino was
dumbfounded.

Ino looked between Haku and Naruto. "Daaaaamn" Was
all that Ino could say. Ino shook her head a little before looking over to
Shika. She smirked. "To tell you the truth, I kind of envy you Shika. To
be forever young, just about anyone would kill for the opportunity you�fre
getting. But would you mind if I came to the ritual." Ino bowed her head,
"I'm sure Chouji would want to come too if he knew. I'm just kind of
worried that something might happen."

Shika smiled; no matter how bossy, bitchy, or overall
psychotic Ino could be, she would always be like a sister to him. "If it's
ok with Miko-sensei, it�fs ok with me."

They were all caught off guard as the voice of Miko come
from the back of the room. "I see no reason why not."

Everyone in the room nearly jumped out of their skin as the
form of Miko became visible by the back wall, but Naruto was the first to
recover his breath. "Miko-sensei, I've asked you not to do that!"

Kin was not happy. Not only had her team failed, but as
punishment, she and her team were given cursed seals, and not the ones that granted
insane power like the Sound Five and the Uchiha brat had. No, they were given
seals of punishment. Now, at a mere thought, Orochimaru could put her to her
knees with pain or outright kill her. Dosu and Zaku were lucky, they didn't
survive receiving the seal.

But she couldn't help but love the Snake Sannin; he gave her
a home, training, and a purpose. She would do anything for him, which is
exactly why she found herself in this god forsaken forest looking for the boy
who beat her in the prelims. Orochimaru had told her to seduce the boy to get
closer to his friend Naruto and then, if given the chance, assassinate him.

She saw the Nara and the blonde come down this path, but it
seemed to lead nowhere, so she went off the trail and was now lost. Looking up,
she could see that the sun was about to set. It looked like she'd be spending
the night in the forest.

To say Shikamaru was nervous was to say an Akimichi can
tolerate food. The ritual was going to be starting soon. Naruto was escorting
him and his parents through the Den into a room that had been made for complex
rituals. When they entered, they saw Miko laying down seals as Jiraiya double
checked them, while Anko and Haku were waiting to the side with Sarutobi, Ino,
and Hinata.

Naruto lead them over to where Haku was and left to help
Jiraiya. Well, he really didn't think he could help but Jiraiya started to
explain the seals purpose as written in the tome he was comparing Miko's work
to. Naruto had found that he was a natural at seals. He understood what some
meant just by looking at them, it was almost like reading a scroll. Jiraiya
laughed and said its part of his Bloodline.

Yoshino gave Hinata a sad smile. "I have heard what
happened. While I don't agree with what the Hyuuga did, I'm glad to see you
have found a family to be a part of. It is sad it had to come at such a high
price."

The Hokage smiled. "You'd be surprised, but enough of
that. Shika, how are you feeling about all this? I've seen this ritual before
and may be able to answer some questions."

"I just want to know if it'll hurt, and what it'll do
to my bloodline. I've heard stories of Nara that delved too deep into the
shadow only to be consumed by it. That's not the way I want to go."
Everyone shivered at that thought.

Shikaku spoke up. "Whatever happens, remember to stay
calm and collected. And whatever happens, remember not to fear your own power.
Our greatest techniques use the fear of our power to kill, so many have fallen
to their own power by forgetting this."

Shikamaru nodded to his father. "Thank you father, I
will keep that in mind."

Miko rose from her work and looked over to the group.
"It's done. Are you ready, Shikamaru?"

Nodding, he walked over to her followed by Haku. Seeing Anko
not following, Sarutobi looked over to her. "Why are you not
participating? Surely you don't have a problem with Shikamaru joining, do
you?"

Anko smiled. "No, I have no problems with the gaki;
Miko and I are just concerned that my new chakra nature would harm him."

Sarutobi quirked an eye at this, "What do you mean? I
thought you had an earth nature?"

Anko's grin looked positively evil. "Not anymore. Since
my ritual, we have found that I now have a poison chakra nature. We theorized
that the poison in my system during the ritual was transferred to my chakra.
Now, I just have to find a way to get my chakra into my opponent."

Everyone was shocked by this, but then Hinata grinned. She
had found her revenge against her family. "Anko-nee-chan, I would be happy
to teach you Jyuuken. While you won�ft be able to see the tenketsu to close
them, the whole premise of Jyuuken is to push your chakra into the enemy�fs
tenketsu to stop chakra flow, or overloading and destroying the chakra coils
surrounding an organ. With your chakra, all you would have to do is push your
chakra into any part of their coils, thus poisoning their entire system. While
you could just push it in while connecting with any taijutsu style, this is not
easy as the flesh will try and absorb the chakra, probably only resulting in a
local effect. But, with Jyuuken, we are trained to have our chakra penetrate
the flesh and enter the enemy�fs coils."

Sarutobi frowned though. "Hinata, by teaching her
Jyuuken, you'd be committing treason against the Hyuuga, you know this,
right?"

Hinata's grin widened and took on a sinister aspect that
even Orochimaru would be proud of. With an almost sickeningly sweet tone,
Hinata replied. "How can you commit treason to a group you do not belong
to, Hokage-sama? I am not a Hyuuga; I can not be bound by their laws."

Sarutobi smiled. "No you aren't, are you? Well then as
your Hokage, if Anko-chan wishes it, I will be giving you an A ranked mission
to help Anko-chan create what will be called Moudokuken (Deadly Poison
Fist)."

Anko's mind raced with the possibilities. "Oh yes
Hokage-sama, I wish it. And Hinata-chan, I'll find a way to pay you back for
this!"

Hinata just gave Anko a warm smile. "It's no big deal,
after all what is family for if not to help each other?"

Miko had been listening in on their discussion while getting
everyone in their place and collecting the chakra rich blood. 'Hiashi will
rue the day he crossed Hinata. She just might turn out to be more devious than
even his twisted soul.' Unable to suppress a smirk, she sighed. 'I'll
have to continue my research. Hinata deserves to be one of us, I just have to
find out how.' Turning to Shika, she handed him the chalice. "When we
start, drink this. I know blood isn't exactly a typical human thirst quencher,
but it's needed for the ritual." Shika nodded as he took the cup. As Miko
took her place on the seal array, she looked to Naruto and Haku. "Since we
have a proper set up, it'll take a lot less chakra this time. I need you both
to channel about three times as much needed for the Heki Dageki." Seeing
both of them nod, she looked over to Shika as he sat cross legged in the middle
of the array.

All the Kitsune started to pour out their potent demonic
chakra and Shikamaru quickly drank the chakra infused blood. The blood burned
all the way down. It was like the first time he had sake at his aunts�f wedding,
just a hundred times worse. He then felt his skin start to burn as the seal
array forced the demon chakra into his body. He held back a scream as the
burning of his skin seemed to seep into him while the burning in his stomach
seeped outward. As the two sensations met, he felt it.

It was the void every Nara had to delve into deep within
them and grasp before the shadow would obey their commands. After a Nara found
their void, they could always feel it. It was the connection between the Nara
and their ancient benefactor. Shikamaru always felt an eerie calm from the
void, but now he could feel it ripple and surge as if threatening to swallow
him up from within. Shikamaru instantly began the Nara Litany Against Fear.

I must not fear.

Fear is the mind-killer.

Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.

I will face my fear.

I will permit it to pass over me and through me.

And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.

Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.

Only I will remain.

Shikamaru felt the calm slightly return as he repeated the
litany over and over. The void continued to expand, but the litany kept him
calm. When the void finally encompassed him there was a pulse. As the pulse
reverberated through the void, he felt it bind to him, becoming one with the
very core of his being. He repeated the litany one last time. As he finished,
he found the void was no longer there, but nether was he if he was truthful to
himself. He was no longer himself, but something more.

When Miko felt the transfer to be complete, something
happened. The shadow beneath Shikamaru began to creep up his body, slowly
consuming him. She watched as it covered him completely and that's when it
happened; a pulse of dark energy flung her, Naruto and Haku to the walls.
Shikamaru's body seemed to shine with a dark light. This power filled all that
beheld it with a primal fear, a fear that only few could stand against.

Sarutobi remembered the feeling of this dark energy, for he
had felt it before. This was the power of Shinigami, the Death God. He looked
to the other observers and he saw recognition in the eye's of the Nara. They
had been on the front lines that night so, of course, they would remember it.
He could see Jiraiya just scowling. This was the power that took his greatest
pupil and his Godson. Ino and Hinata held onto each other trying their best not
to lose consciousness. Anko, surprisingly, stood unmoving staring into the
darkness with a look of determination. He guessed she truly did not fear death,
for even he, Jiraiya, and the Nara couple were forced to their knees for fear
that Shinigami would strike them down for their insolence. Yes he would give
his life for the village, but he still feared his judgment. He had made so many
mistakes in his life, Orochimaru only being a close second.

As abruptly as it came to be, the dark light and the aura of
overwhelming fear was gone and everyone looked to see if Shikamaru was still
there. In the middle of the seal array sat Shikamaru, but something was wrong
as he was slightly slumped forward and his eyes were closed. As everyone came
back to their senses they started to worry, but everyone let out a sigh of
relief as he slowly stood facing the far wall.

Miko, who was leaning against the wall, looked up at
Shikamaru as he opened his eyes. Miko failed to stifle her gasp as she stared
into the cold onyx orbs with silver circles for pupils. As she stared into
those eyes, she felt as though if she wasn't careful they would consume her
soul. That's when she felt it along with everyone else. A black chakra was
being emitted by Shikamaru. The chakra had the same aura of fear as before, but
not as strong. Slowly, the chakra subsided and his eyes faded to their normal
whites with black pupils. Miko noticed he was about to collapse, so she jumped
to his side and caught him.

His parents soon rushed to his side. He looked over to his
father and mother and smiled. "It was just like the Litany." After
saying that, he lost consciousness.

Miko smiled. "He'll be alright, he's just exhausted.
Let�fs get back so he can rest."

When they got back to the Kitsune Clan home, everyone went
their separate ways. The Nara went home, promising to be back in the morning. Jiraiya
mentioned he'd be back around noon to continue Naruto's training. Sarutobi said
he'd be over to check up on Shika once his paperwork was done. Miko started to
carry Shika to the room she had prepared for him when she noticed Ino following
her.

Ino noticed Miko give her a questioning look. "Would
you mind if I stay with him? I just want to be there for him when he wakes up.
He's always been like a brother to me and�c"

Miko stopped her rambling with a smile and a nod. "Ok,
but if anything unusual happens, come get me." Nodding toward the door at
the far end, she opened the door to Shika's room. Setting him down, she went
about removing all but his boxers before covering him with a blanket. Turning
to Ino, Miko smiled. "If you get too tired, there�fs an extra futon in the
closet and that door is to his bathroom. Good night Ino, see you in the
morning."

Ino smiled. "Good night Miko-sensei."

As Shikamaru awoke, he noticed he felt more energized than
he normally did in the morning. Looking around, he found himself in a room
similar to Naruto's. That's when he noticed Ino sleeping on an extra futon next
to his. He smiled as he noticed she was holding his hand. She had obviously
spent the night watching him. She had done the same thing when he had been poisoned
on their first C rank mission. Squeezing her hand lightly, he pulled it away so
he could find the bathroom.

Ino awoke when Shika's hand left hers. She noticed him
looking around, most likely for the bathroom. "Through that door" She
saw him nod his head and enter the bathroom. Soon afterward, she heard the
flush signifying he was done and a shower start. Deciding to be helpful, she
rolled up the extra futon and returned it to the closet.

Since the sun now illuminated the room, she noticed the
closet had clothes that looked like they would fit him. Taking a pair of boxers
and a pair of black shinobi pants, she went over to the bathroom door. Opening
it just enough to put the clothes inside, she called out. "I put some
clean clothes by the door for when you're done. I'm going to go look for the
kitchen to see if I can scrounge up some breakfast, ok?"

Shika smiled while he continued to clean himself.
"Thanks Ino." Hearing the door close, he let his mind wander.
Inevitably, it wandered to what happened the night before. When he stood after
the ritual and looked at Miko, he could see not only her, but a ghostly
apparition within her that had her form. Then, his sight went back to normal. 'Was
that her soul I saw?'

Having finished cleaning himself, he went about drying off
and getting dressed. The clothes fit nicely and were obviously Shinobi clothing
with all the hidden pockets. Leaving the bathroom, he went to the closet,
seeing as how Ino hadn't gotten him a shirt. He was surprised at the fact that
the closet had a full wardrobe. Finally he decided on a mesh undershirt that
went to his wrists and a black tee-shirt. He also found a black version of his
utility vest and quickly put it on.

Looking in the full length mirror on the door to his
bathroom, he decided that he did look good in black. This is what Ino saw as
she entered the room. Shikamaru was broken from his thoughts by a whistle from
Ino. "Damn Shika, if you looked any hotter I'd have to readjust the way I
think about you. As it is, you'll be developing a fan club for sure. By the
way, I think your hair looks better down like that."

Shikamaru just groaned at the thought of having fan girls.
"Troublesome, I don't need to be hounded by air headed fan girls all
day."

"Well Haku�fs making breakfast for everyone, so come
on." Ino then dragged Shika to the kitchen.

When they arrived, he noticed his parents sitting with Miko
and Anko at the table, while Hinata was helping Haku and Naruto was trying to
get some bacon only to be hit by Haku's spatula. Shika smiled; yeah he could
feel at home here. Sitting at the table, he noticed the adults were having a
conversation.

"Yes, I agree with you Yoshino, we should have a plan
in place for evacuating the academy. We'll have to discus it with Sarutobi when
he gets here later." Miko took a sip of her coffee as she finished before
turning to Shika, "So, how do you feel today Shika? I trust you slept
well."

Shika thanked Hinata as she set a cup of coffee in front of
him and Ino. "I did sleep well, and I feel great."

Just then, they were interrupted by ice needles flying from
the kitchen with a running Naruto barely dodging them, followed by Haku's
voice. "You'll wait like everyone else or you'll be waiting till
lunch!"

As a sheepish Naruto sat down, Shika chuckled before
continuing. "I have some questions about what happened to me, but I'm not
sure if anyone here would be able to answer them." Seeing everyone waiting
for him to continue, he sighed. "Last night after the ritual, Miko-sensei
was the first person I saw, but while looking at you I saw what I can only
describe as what is most likely your soul. Then, there is the fact that I can
no longer feel my void, but the calm it produced still flows through me."

Shikaku took on a thoughtful expression. "Son, tell us
everything you remember about the ritual, and leave nothing out."

And so Shika recounted his experience during last night.
"And then my vision went to normal and I remember seeing you and mother
over me and me saying it was just like the litany."

Miko smirked. "To think something like the 'Bene
Gesserit Litany Against Fear' would survive this long." Seeing the Nara�fs
surprised expression, she smiled. "That litany is from an ancient work of
fiction by a man named Frank Herbert, from a time before humans developed their
ability to use chakra. I know this because my grandfather would read that book
to me when I was little. It was his favorite novel from a time he lived
through."

"Miko, I was wondering. If we are immortal, then how
come the world isn't overrun by demons? Yes we can be killed, but you'd think
if a population didn't die it would grow to be too much for the land to
support." This is something that had been bothering Shika since he was
asked to join them.

Miko's smirk returned. "I was wondering when one of you
would ask me that, and to tell you the truth we are not immortal per say, but
were labeled such by humans. You see, on average, demons live for ten thousand
years. So you could say we live a hundred times longer than humans, but we
don't start to physically show old age until we�fve lived about eight or nine
thousand years. The age that that book is from is close to twenty thousand
years ago."

As everyone was soaking that in, Hinata and Haku brought out
the food they had prepared. As they were setting it on the table, Haku looked
to Miko. "Is that also why our cycle is a hundred years apart instead of
only a month?"

The Nara and Ino just stared at Haku like she had grown
another head, but it was Shikaku that broke the silence. "To think, you'll
only have to deal with PMS once every hundred years Shika. You�fre a lucky man,
you know that." Of course, his comment earned him a rather hard punch in
the head from his wife, but it also got a smirk from Shika. Then, Naruto broke
out laughing and was soon joined by the rest.

Miko finally looked to Haku after everyone was finished
laughing. "Yes Haku, it is. But we also actively controlled our numbers
with birth control seals and such. We tried to keep our numbers below five
hundred so as to not tax the land in which we lived too much. That is why the
Den is the size of a small village."

After breakfast, everyone complemented Haku and Hinata on
their cooking. Anko rose to her feet looking at the clock and saw that it was
about nine o'clock. "Ok, time to do some training. Haku, Naruto take Shika
with you and show him the morning exercises and then get him doing control
exercises. Knowing Asuma, he probably slacked hardcore on his teams�f training.
When noon comes, come back here." With a dual chorus of 'Hai' they were
off, followed by Ino. Anko then turned to Hinata. "If you don't mind, I
would like to get started on the Moudokuken, unless you'll be helping Shino
today."

Hinata smiled. "No, Shino-kun was going to be leaving
on a training mission with his father. We actually just hung around with Kiba
and Kurenai most of the day."

Anko smiled. "Then, shall we?" Looking to those
left at the table, she waved before leaving with Hinata.

Miko stood up, followed by the Nara couple. "Well, it
was nice having you over for breakfast. You�fre welcome to join us any time. But
now, I have some studying to do in the archives."

Before leaving Shikaku turned to Miko, "I was wondering
it I could read a copy of this book. If one of our core teachings comes from
it, I would like to see if anything else in it could be of use."

Miko smiled. "Sure, if you�fre not busy today, you can
join me in the archives."

Shikaku grinned. "All I have planned for today is to
train Shika in his bloodline, but that isn't till he returns at noon, so that
gives me about three hours of spar time."

----------------------------------------

IT'S GOOD TO BE BACK!!!!!!

Sorry for the long wait between chapters. Life, depression,
and a friends wedding on the side of the country kind of pulled me off my
writing. If you ever want a good view at society, take the Greyhound. I would
have had this out like a month ago but every time I wrote it, it just sucked.
I'm finally happy with the way it turned out. Some people will notice I
reposted all my chapters. That's because someone went back and did the Beta
work. I am proud to announce Kage Husha is my Beta writer. And for those that
don't know what book the litany came from it was Frank Herbert's
"Dune". I not only did this to point out that the Naruto-verse is in
our VERY distant future but I really like the litany and felt it fit the Nara
clan. OK ON TO REVIEWS! (From now on I'd like to thank all my reviews but will
be responding to those that leave questions or those that I find particularly
interesting)

Sigtrygg: Well as for the error I now have a complaint
desk... I mean Beta. As for the line "That's funny so isn't Sakura."
It was referring to what Haku had said about Hinata being a 'screamer'. I
thought this was obvious but may not of been. As for the Nara's reactions I did
that scene three times before it felt believable to me. And as for flashbacks
while there fun that doesn't mean they need to be used every time and like you
said it came out good without one. I thank you for your continued reading and I
enjoy reading your comments.

Barranca: You know I had this figured out but lately I've
been on the fence. Who would you like to see him with? While I may not take
your suggestion it's always good to know. And I can guaranty it won't be an OC.

The Former PrinceofDDR: Thank you. And as for your question
Hiashi is close to Orochimaru's level, maybe half a peg lower.

GaryTheAlmostSignificant: The "HOLY ZOMBIE JESUS AND
POPE RACING ON POGO STICKS!" Comment didn't offend but it did conjure an
image of said race with System of a Down's song Pogo Blearing in the
background! Funny image! As for the sacks of gold and metals, I'd much rather
have a cookie. I deserve a cookie don't I? sniff, sniff.

Dragon and Sword Master: I've also been thinking of a Naruto
RP and have come down to a decision. I will be using the newer white wolf
system because with the template system they use it makes it much easier to
work in the bloodlines and such.

spiritwolf30: Ahh I see you think Naruto won't be having fun
with Ino, but I'm personally glad to inform you that you�fre wrong. It will be
happening but I just haven't gotten there yet. Be patient that's all I can say.

Kunsi: Personally I would like a list of links to all the
stories you come across where Haku is both. I look before I started writing
this and only found one so I figured it was still a novel idea. As for
"thru through and threw" Ill be sure to try and use them correctly
but I'm not sure when I'll be throwing something at the past! : ) But we'll
see, you never know what'll happen in my writings!

Ohayo, Minna! I�fm Kage Husha, and I�fm honoured to be here to
help Zendura bring out great chapters of this story (even if it is mostly
spelling and grammar check). I hope all you fans continue to enjoy this
fabulous fic like I do! Also, to answer Zendura, no, you don�ft deserve a cookie; you deserve whole sacks of cookies! So everybody, send him
lots of cookies, OK? Ja ne!
