"So chakra is the energy of the spirit and body
combined, and is the fuel for jutsu and increasing physical abilities."
Tsukiyo had gotten boared while
sitting in the hospital, so she asked Ryoko and Naruto to
start training her. So far it was just them lecturing about chakra and ~~it's~~its
many uses.

"Yup, but I'm afraid our lesson will end heare
squirt, because ~~Inochi's~~Inoichi�fs
here to pick you up." Naruto stood up from under the sakura tree they were
talking under. "And thanks again for fixing up this place, it's really
quite beautiful."

Ryoko smiled as she looked across the mindscape. It had
changed from a dank sewer to a beautiful field with a small cottage by a lake.
By the house, there was a massive sakura tree they
had been talking under with a rope swing. "Yes, thank
you Tsu-chan."

Tsukiyo stuck her tongue out at Naruto for calling her
squirt, but smiled at Ryoko. "I just
made it look like the home I always wanted."

Ryoko nodded. "Well, you need
to go back now, but remember you can talk to us by
thinking at us." She watched as Tsukiyo faded away while waving.
"She's doing better thaen I
thought she would be after what happened."

Naruto let out a sigh. "She just used her happiness at
having us to bury it deep in her mind. I know because that�f is
how I got over finding out I had Kyuubi in me. I used the fact that
Iruka-sensei cared and saved me to push the hatred of Kyuubi under the rug as
they say."

Ryoko stood up and started to walk toward the house.
"Well, I'm going to see if this mindscape
has a shower. Not having one for six years leaves a grimy feeling that I'm not
fond of."

As Tsukiyo came to, ~~Inochi~~Inoichi
walked through the door,.
"Hey Tsu-chan, ready to get out of here?"

Tsukiyo jumped off the bed and was pulling his arm toward
the door. "I thought you'd never ask! It's so boring here!"

"Tsukiyo, I'm glad youryou�fre
excited, but you should change out of that
hospital gown before we leave." InochiInoichi
laughed when she looked down at herself and back at him with a sheepish grin.
"I boarrowed
some stuff from my daughter since you�fre about
the same size." Handing her a bag, he
headed for the door. "Come out when youryou�fre
done changing and we'll head to your new home. My wife is making a special
lunch to celebrate you living with us."

When ~~Inochi~~Inoichi
left the room, Tsukiyo dumped the bag on the bed
and removed the hospital gown. It only took a minute or two and she was out the
door. ~~Inochi~~Inoichi
smiled down at her. She looked cute in the purple shorts and yellow tank top.
"How do they fit?"

Tsukiyo smiled. "A little loose, but
that's ok."

~~Inochi~~Inoichi
nodded. "I'll have to have Misaki and Ino take you shopping."

Tsukiyo frowned and bowed her head. "But the stores
don't let me in. I had to get the clothes I do have from the dumpsters by the
marketplace."

~~Inochi~~Inoichi
bent his knees down to be at her level. "That's all going to change.
Misaki and I are good friends with one of the merchants. I'm sure you'll be let
in to that store." Taking the girls hand, he
smiled at her. "Now come on. We better be getting home or else we'll be
late, and Misaki doesn't stand for tardiness."

As they walked out of the hospital, Tsukiyo
began to ask questions. "Who's Misaki?"

~~Inochi~~Inoichi
chuckled. "Misaki is my wife. She takes care of the flower shop we
have."

Now she was really curious. "Is she a ninja too?"

~~Inochi~~Inoichi
smiled. "She retired when Ino was born, but she
still trains every day. You and Ino will be training with her."

Tsukiyo bowed her head. "Are you sure they'll like
me?"

~~Inochi~~Inoichi
chuckled. "Yeah I'm sure. Misaki and Ino can't wait to meet you."

Tsukiyo walked closer to InochiInoichi
as she noticed the usual glares. "So Ino wants to be a ninja too?"

~~Inochi~~Inoichi
let out a sigh. "Well you see Tsu-chan, if two ninja have a child it is
required that the child attend the first year at the academy. Ino is nervous,
but she also is willing to give it a shot."

Tsukiyo's brightened up at the mentioning of the academy.
"When will we start the academy?"

~~Inochi~~Inoichi
chuckled again. "In two years when you're both eight."

Tsukiyo tilted her head to the side in a cute curious
gesture. "What's Ino like?"

~~Inochi~~Inoichi
grinned as he looked down at his new daughter. "Well, you're
about to find out because we're here."

Tsukiyo looked at the building they stopped in front of. It
was a three story house that the first floor was used as the store. The front
had large windows and lots of potted plants in them. As they walked in she
noticed that there were flowers of all shapes, sizes and colors. She was lost
in the beauty of all the plants when she heard a young girlsgirl�fs
voice.

"Welcome to the Yamanaka Flower Shop..." As
Tsukiyo turned to see who was speaking she saw a blond haired girl with blue
eyes wearing a purple sun-dress launch at InochiInoichi
with a squeal of "Daddy!" After giving InochiInoichi
a huge flying hug, the girl noticed Tsukiyo. Jumping
out of her fathers arms, Ino stood in front of Tsukiyo.
"Are you my new sister?" Tsukiyo just gave a small nod,
but that was enough. She soon found herself in a hug as Ino greeted her,.
"YAY! I'm Ino! We're going to have so much fun!"

~~Inochi~~Inoichi
chuckled at his easily excited daughter. After flipping the sign on the door to
the closed side he noticed that Tsukiyo was smiling as Ino told her about how
she planned on introducing her to Sakura. InochiInoichi
smiled seeing Ino take an instant liking to the girl. "Well,
we better get upstairs or mom will blame me for us being late."

After hearing Ino respond to him with a 'Hai',
he saw her disappear in a flash up the back stairs pulling a slightly dazed
Tsukiyo behind her. Chuckling once again, he made
his way upstairs. As he walked into the living room, Ino was
going over how much she and Tsukiyo looked alike. He noticed Misaki smiling at
the two girls and he let out a sigh of relief. It had been a long discussion
about how he had decided to take in the child without even asking ~~her,~~her
or even thinking about how it would effectaffect
Ino to suddenly have someone else to share her parentsparents�f
attention. He was glad she wasn't mad about the fact it was the Kyuubi vessel,
and after he told her about what happened to her, he could
see the rage in her eyes. That quickly turned to fear when he told her about
going inside the girls mind and meeting the Kyuubi and Naruto. He had gotten
permission from the Hokage to tell her everything since she would most likely
find out eventually. By the end of their talk Misaki agreed with his actions
even if she was still mad about not being consulted.

"Well, I'm sure you two will have fun later,
but right now it's time for lunch. I made some ramen since I was told that is
what you like Tsu-chan." At the magic word of ramen, Tsukiyo
was at the table sitting waiting as patiently
as a six year old can. Misaki laughed as she served lunch. After everyone was
served, they started. To say Tsukiyo's
eating habits were poor was like saying the Hokage
was an ok ninja. After getting Tsukiyo to slow down and eat only a couple
noodles at a time instead of a bowl full, they settled
into a light conversation.

"So Tsu-chan, how would you like to go shopping ~~later.~~later?
I think the Haruno Boutique would have some clothes you'll love." Misaki
couldn't help but giggle as the girl had a piece of noodleof noodle
on her cheek.

"Yeah,! Sakura
and her mom could help!" Ino was thrilled at the idea of going shopping.

Tsukiyo wiped her cheek with her arm and nodded slightly.
"Ok, but stores usually don't let me in."

Ino was curious, so she
asked why. "Why, I mean you don't sell stuff if you don't have
customers."

Before Misaki or InochiInoichi
could interrupt, Tsukiyo answered with a slight
growl. "It's because they hate Ryoko-nee-chan!"

Ino looked confused and was about
to ask further when ~~Inochi~~Inoichi
interrupted. "That's enough Ino. It's obviously a subject Tsukiyo doesn�ft
like talking about, so leave it alone."

To both adults�f surprise,
Tsukiyo looked at Ino with a slightly worried look. "Ryoko is Kyuubi's
name. She was sealed inside me when she attacked the village looking for her
son."

Ino looked really confused as she looked to her father.
"But ~~the~~ I thought the Fourth killed
Kyuubi?"

~~Inochi~~Inoichi
let out a sigh as Misaki explained. "No Ino, Tsu-chan is right. When the
Kyuubi attacked the village the Yondaime wasn't able to kill it,
so he sealed it into Tsu-chan. At the time no-one knew why it attacked."

Tsukiyo stood up and glared. "She's not an 'it'!
Someone took her son and she was looking for him! Yeah she killed some people,
but I would too if that happened to me!"

Misaki bowed her head. "Sorry Tsu-chan, I didn't mean
to offend her."

Tsukiyo stopped glaring and sat down. "I'm sorry I
yelled, but people don't understand how she feels and it makes me angry."

Ino looked at Tsukiyo. "What's she like?"

Tsukiyo smiled. "She's nice. She said she was going to
train me to be the best nNinja
ever!"

"Tsu-chan, if Ino wants, I can
teach her too." Tsukiyo smiled as she heard Ryoko in her head. 'Cool!
I'll ask her!' "Hey Ino, Nee-chan says she�fll help
you too if you want!"

"What exactly will she be teaching you,
Tsu-chan?" Misaki still wasn't sure about how she felt about the demon. If
she was being truthful in its reason, she
couldn't really blame her, but...

Ryoko heard the question and answered before Tsukiyo could
ask her. "What I will be teaching you is exercises to build chakra
stores along with control. Once I feel you have a good enough grasp on control,
I will teach you how to use your chakra's fire element. Since I never
learned any jutsu, I cantcan�ft
help you there."

Naruto decided to put in his two ryo here. "That's
where I come in. I know plenty of jutsu's and I will also teach you about your
wind element when you�fre ready."

Tsukiyo nodded. "Ok, Ryoko says she'll be teaching me
chakra control exercises that will also build up my chakra capacity. Once she
thinks I'm ready, she'll teach me about my fire
element. Naruto will be teaching me jutsu and about wind element."

Ino looked confused once again. "Who's Naruto?"

"Naruto-nii-san is..." Tsukiyo was cut off by ~~Inochi~~Inoichi.

"He's a person that lost his body and ended up in
Tsukiyo's mind." ~~Inochi~~Inoichi
then gave Tsukiyo a look that said 'leave it at that'.

"Yup, and he's nice too, even
though he calls me squirt." Everyone but Tsukiyo laughed at that.

As they settled back into their meal,
~~Inochi~~Inoichi
looked to his daughter. "Ino, what we just talked about is considered a
village secret. Only Tsukiyo is allowed to tell people, and even
then she should only tell the people she trusts most."

"Ok. I promise I wontwon�ft
tell!" After they finished, the girls headed out to the
marketplace as ~~Inochi~~Inoichi
watched the store. Ino was walking next to Tsukiyo when she noticed the glares
people were sending her. She also noticed how her new sister seemed to get
depressed when she got glared at, so Ino
tried to get her mind off the villagers. "So,
what's you favorite color?"

Tsukiyo thought about it for a second. "Well, I like
blue and red."

Ino noticed Tsukiyo cheer up a little, so she
continued her questions. "What types of clothes do you like?"

"Stuff like this." She answered,
gesturing to what she was wearing. "I don't like dresses because you cant
do anything in them."

Misaki giggled. "Spoken like a true kunoichi. I think
we'll be getting you some every-day clothes and some training outfits along
with some formal wear. Ino, you too will be getting some training clothes if
you want to learn with Tsu-chan." As they turned the corner,
Misaki lead them into the Haruno clothing store.

A girl with pink hair was putting away some shirts when they
came in. "Welcome to the Haruno Boutique, hey Ino, Misaki-san, how are
you? And who is she?" Setting down the shirts on the counter,
she walked up and gave Ino a hug.

Misaki smiled at Sakura. "We're good Sakura-chan. We
came to get some clothes for Tsukiyo here,here
and some training clothes for her and Ino. We just adopted Tsukiyo and she
doesn't have any clothes of her own."

Sakura hugged Tsukiyo, catching
her off guard. "Cool! I'm sure we'll be great friends! Come on,
I'll show you what we got!"

Misaki laughed as the girls started to get out clothes for
her new daughter. "I see you took the girl in. It's nice to see someone
had the guts to do it." She Tturned~~ing~~
around to see a tall, pink haired woman come in the front
with a large box.

Misaki smiled at her life long friend. "Thanks Yuri,
how are you doing?"

Yuri smiled. "I'm doing great." Seeing the girls
laughing together as they looked through the clothes, she
sighed. "I heard about what happened to her. She seems to be doing
well."

"Yes, she does seem to be handling it well,
but only time will tell." Misaki finally noticed Yuri unpacking the box
she carried in, only to be surprised. "When did
you start carrying ninja supplies?"

"I made a deal with Himitsuheiki Satoshi. I ~~now~~ will
now
be selling the various ninja equipment he makes, and his
daughter Tenten will be helping out here. Ever since his wife died,
it's been real hard for him to keep up with running his shop and making the
product to fill his orders. Since most ninja shop here for clothing,
I figured I'd make it easier to sell the equipment too." Laying out the
kunai in the glass counter, Yuri grinned. "It looks like
Tsukiyo has a thing for mesh!"

Misaki turned to see Tsukiyo step out of the changing room
wearing dark blue shinobi shorts and sandals with a full-body mesh suit and a
crimson tank top. Turning around once, she
looked to Misaki. "How do I look?"

Misaki smiled. "It looks good on you,
Tsu-chan. Now what did you want for your every day clothes?"

Looking down at herself, Tsukiyo
shrugged. "This'll work."

Yuri burst out laughing while Misaki shook her head. Looking
at Tsukiyo's confused expression, she
sighed. "Ok, but you have to at least get one formal kimono for special
occasions."

Tsukiyo grumbled, but let
Ino and Sakura pull her over to the kimono'skimonos.
Yuri finished laughing and leaned against the counter. "I swear she's just
as bad as Tenten! The way she looked at you when you mentioned the kimono was
priceless!"

As the three girls walked into the family store,
~~Inochi~~Inoichi
smiled,.
"Looking good Tsu-chan! Those will be excellent training clothes!"

Misaki looked to her husband and sighed. "This is what
she wants to wear all the time. I had to force her to get a kimono, but dresses
and skirts were out of the question."

Tsukiyo huffed. "Have you ever climbed a tree in a
dress, or try and run in one? Skirts are just as bad too,too;
all they do is ~~show~~ let people
see
your butt!"

~~Inochi~~Inoichi
chuckled. "I see your point. I guess you can wear what you want. Now,
I'll go over the basics of chakra while mom cooks dinner, then she
will continue after dinner while I go to a council meeting." Seeing both
girls nod, he started with a question.
"Can either of you tell me what chakra is?"

Ino shook her head, but
Tsukiyo smiled. "It's the combination of spiritual and physical
energy."

~~Inochi~~Inoichi
smiled,.
"Very good. Now let me explain it in more detail."

That night, Tsukiyo lay in her new bed tossing
and turning. Waking up suddenly, she found herself covered in sweat.
She had dreamed about the rape, but this time she couldn't fight back. The
scene played on untill she
finally died and that's when she woke up. Drying off the sweat and changing her
night shirt, she left her room and went to Ino's.
Opening the door, she walked up to her sister and
called out her name. "Ino, Ino can I sleep with you?"

Ino had always been a light sleeper, much to
her ~~parents~~parents�f
dismay, when she was a baby, so the gentle
calling roused her.,
"Tsuki? What's wrong?"

"I had a bad nightmare, can I sleep with you? I don't
want to be alone." Ino could see that her new sister had a rough time
sleeping and was nearly crying.

Scooting over, Ino
lifted her covers. "Ok, you can sleep with me."

As Tsukiyo got in the bed, she
thanked Ino. As they got comfortable, Ino
asked what the dream was about. "It was like remembering what happened
last night."

Ino looked at Tsukiyo with a questioning expression.
"What ~~happened.~~happened?
Dad said you were attacked, but he didn't explain." So Tsukiyo told Ino
all that happened, and by the end she was crying. "It's ok Tsuki, nobodies
going to do that to you here. They would have to get through me, mom, and dad
before that would happen."

Tsukiyo sniffed as she calmed down a little. "Thanks
Ino. Goodnight."

Ino pulled Tsukiyo into a hug. "Goodnight Tsuki."

TIME-SKIP SIX MONTHS

"Ino, see I told you that you could do
it!" Tsukiyo was cheering on Ino as the girl was levitating three leaves
on her forehead and six on each arm.

Ino grit her teeth, but
smiled. "It'd be easier if you would stop jumping around yelling
Tsuki!" Letting the leaves fall, she
looked at Tsukiyo as she caught her breath. "You can still do it longer
than I can though." Ever since the first night in the Yamanaka home,
Ino called her Tsuki and since then the Hokage, InochiInoichi,
Misaki, Yuri, Sakura, and Tenten did too. But if anyone else did,
she was quick to correct them, because only her friends could call her that.

Tsukiyo grinned. "Yeah, but
you're getting there!"

"Hey kit, if you want to try it, I got an
exercise that might help you and Ino and you with
your chakra capacity." Ryoko was quite impressed with Ino. The young
girl was never more ~~then~~ than a
step behind Tsukiyo. "Go to the tree and focus chakra to your feet,
then try and walk up the tree." Ryoko sent a mental image of her doing
it.

"Hey Ino, want to try something Nee-chan showed
me?" Walking over to the tree that was in the Yamanaka's back yard,
she took a second to focus her chakra and put her foot on the tree,
only for it to be forced right back at her.

"That was too much, squirt.
It takes just the right amount of chakra to stick. Too much and you'll blast
off. Too little, and you'll fall." Naruto
laughed when Tsukiyo sent him a mental growl for the squirt comment.

Ino watched as Tsukiyo put her foot on the tree,
only to see the bark crack and her foot launch off. "What are
you doing?" Tsukiyo quickly explained what Ryoko and Naruto told her.

"That's a Ggenin
rank exercise and I'm not sure Ino's ready for it yet. The only reason you
might be Tsuki is because of your larger reserves." InochiInoichi
had come out to check on them and heard Tsukiyo explaining the tree climbing
exercise.

"If I can do it, Ino can
do it!" Tsukiyo always got defensive of Ino when he told her that sort of
thing.

~~Inochi~~Inoichi
sighed. "Fine, but if she gets to tired she has to stop. She can get
chakra exhaustion unlike you, remember?"

Tsukiyo bowed he head. "Ok dad. Don't worry, we'll be
careful!"

An hour later Ino was sitting, out of
breath. She had made it about ten feet up while Tsukiyo only made it six.

Tsukiyo looked at Ino and smiled. "You want a refill? I
can probably do it one more time before I'm out too."

"Actually, squirt,
call it a day. I want to give you something that will help with your training."
Naruto grinned as Tsukiyo got excited.

"Actually, Nii-san
says we should stop. I'm going to talk to him because he wants to give me
something." Ino nodded as Tsukiyo sat against the tree.

Tsukiyo appeared by the lake in her mindscape. Looking
around, she found Naruto sitting on the
dock. "What did you want to give me?"

Naruto smiled. "Hold out your wrists and I'll sow
you."

Tsukiyo just held out her hands and watched as Naruto made
some weird marks and did a few hand seals. "Kusari no Tendo ga Makai"
Tsukiyo gasped as the marks changed to look like chains around her wrists.
"These are the Chains of Heaven and Hell. The saying behind these seals
goes like this, 'Those that wish to soar to the
Heavens must first trudge through the bowels of Hell'."

"That's cool Nii-san, but what do they do?"
Tsukiyo thought that they sounded cool and was really excited.

"These are very powerful seals that change the gravity
around you. The chain on your left hand is the Chain of Hell. It
makes your body heavier, which forces your mussels muscles
to grow stronger. With each chain link that turns black,
your weight will double. Right now you're only at a tenth of a chain,.
so you weigh ten percent more ~~then~~ than you
normally do."

Tsukiyo nodded. "What does the other one do?"

Naruto smiled. "The Chains of Heaven make you lighter.
For each Chain Link of Hell you finish, you will
unlock a Chain Link of Heaven. When you use a Chain Link of Heaven,
your weight is cut in half. This will make you very fast, but you
can only use it for a short time because unlike the Chains of Hell that store
chakra to make weight, the Chains of Heaven use chakra to
make you lighter."

Tsukiyo gave Naruto a tight hug. "Thanks Nii-san! I'll
be real careful." As she pulled away, she had
a sudden thought. "Can Ino have them too?"

Naruto knew this was coming,.
"Not yet Tsu-chan. You see, these seals can really damage you,
but since you have Ryoko to heal you, it's no
big deal. I'm afraid if I gave them to Ino now, they might
permanently hurt her."

Tsukiyo frowned. "Ok, but once she's ready can she have
them?"

Naruto let out a sigh. "Yes she can, but she
would have to be at least a level two medic-ninja before she can have them,
because she would have to be able to heal her own mussel muscle
tissue."

Tsukiyo nodded and smiled. "Thanks Nii-san! I'll visit
again later!"

Naruto waved as Tsukiyo faded away. "You're doing
better than I hoped Tsu-chan, and Ino is definitely surprising." Walking
back to the cottage, he found Ryoko at the table working
on their project. "Any luck?"

Ryoko looked up and smiled. "With your help,
it should be no problem getting out. The problem is, you do no�ft
know how to condense your chakra into a body like I do."

Naruto took on his thinking pose of leaning against the wall
and scratching the back of his head. "You know, every
time you explain it, it just seems like you�fre
making a kage bunshin." Shrugging his shoulders, he sat
down next to her. "Well, we still have to wait untill
she's thirteen so there's no real rush."

Ryoko couldn't help but think what would~~ill~~
happen when they leftave. Over
the last six months, she realized she had developed a
crush on Naruto but didn't want to tell him. If he rejected her,
it would be too awkward, and she really didn't think he liked her that way.
Maybe once they were out she'd tell him, but no
sooner. "You're right, there is no rush. As for the kage bunshin,
~~its~~it�fs
kind of different. You need something living to mold into your image. The one
time I was forced to use it, I used a
fox that happened to be nearby. Once you have the living base, you use your
chakra to change ~~it's~~its DNA to
match your own and force it to grow until the body is complete. Of course,
you could take a short cut and use a more complex life form, but
that's like stealing if you ask me. The problem is when you leave you'll only
get one chance at it."

"We'll cross that road when we get there. I just might
stay in here for a while longer untill
she meets Tsunade the Medic ~~Senin~~Sannin."
Naruto watched as Ryoko stretched out and got up. He couldn't help but think
about how he was falling for her. Ryoko was strong, beautiful, intelligent, and
fun to be around, but even after all this time he couldn't get her to talk much
about her past. He didn't want to try and start something if she had someone
waiting for her, so he just settled for being her friend. Trying to get his
mind off such thoughts, he figured he'd tell her about his
gift to Tsukiyo. "I gave her the chains today."

Ryoko frowned. "Isn't it a little early for that?"

Naruto grinned. "Not really. They're only at a tenth of
a chain. That's like, what, seven or eight pounds? It'll
be fine."

Ryoko shook her head. "I hope you�fre
right."

When Tsukiyo came to,o
Ino and ~~Inochi~~Inoichi
were walking over to her. Ino, to Tsukiyo's delight, had gone in to get them
something to drink. "Hey dad, check these out! Nii-san gave them to
me!"

When ~~Inochi~~Inoichi
saw the seals, he nearly fainted. After regaining
his ability to talk, he frowned. "I personally don't
think you�fre ready
for something like that, but it's too late
now. You should keep those covered, though.
You don't want anyone to know you have those seals."

Tsukiyo frowned. "They�fre not
bad, are they? I wanted Ino to get them
too, but he said she had to be a level
two medic-ninja before he would do it,.
Ssomething
about how Nee-chan heals me all the time."

~~Inochi~~Inoichi
let out a sigh. "They�fre not bad. They can just really
hurt you if ~~your~~you�fre not
careful. If you push yourself too hard with those, it could
destroy your ~~mussels~~muscles. I
only say cover them because while they�fre
dangerous, they can be a real bonus in a fight
and you don't want your enemy to know your
abilities before you even use them."

Tsuki smiled. "Ok dad, I'll be careful and keep them
covered."

Ino looked at the seals. "What do they do?" ~~Inochi~~Inoichi
lead them into the house and once they were inside, he
explained them to Ino. Once ~~Inochi~~Inoichi
was done explaining, Ino grinned. "Maybe now I'll be
able to beat you in taijutsu if they slow you down."

TIME-SKIP SIX MONTHS

~~Inochi~~Inoichi
and Misaki had been pretty much forced to bring the girls to a weapons master
exhibition that was being held at the stadium. It was that or they�fd
have to deal with the pouting duo ~~till~~
until they
got over it. Once they had taken theire
sets, Tsukiyo couldn't wait. "I hope
they do some really cool jutsu!"

~~Inochi~~Inoichi
laughed. "Tsu-chan, this is an exhibition of skill with various weapons.
You'll most likely see only weapon styles. As you know, ninja
tend to be veary
secretive about their jutsu."

As the exhibition started, two
girls from the Hidden Mist Village displayed their abilities with various
weapons, starting with blunt weapons like staffs and normal tonfa's, then onto
various pole arms like naganita's and pikes, on to small sharp weapons like
bladed tonfa and kunai, and finally to swords like katana and ninja-to. What
really caught Tsukiyo's eye was when one of the girls was using two scimitars
while the other girl looked like she was using the same swords,
but they were connected at the hilt
and the blades were on opposite sides.

After the demonstration, Tsukiyo
looked at Misaki and ~~Inochi~~Inoichi
with big, puppy-dog eyes. "Can I learn to
use scimitars like that? And the swallow too?!"

Ino, hearing this, got her
pleading look on. "I want to learn to use the tonfa's!"

Both parents laughed before InochiInoichi
answered. "Ok, but you have to choose one or the other Tsuki."

Tsukiyo frowned. "Why? They�fre the
same thing, just ones connected!"

It just so happened that Himitsuheiki Satoshi was behind
them and couldn't help but speak up. "I agree with the girl." Seeing
both Misaki and ~~Inochi~~Inoichi
turn to look at him, he smiled. "I'd be happy to
teach both of them in their chosen weapons along with my daughter Tenten."

~~Inochi~~Inoichi
smiled. "While I'm thankful offor
your offer, don't you thinkg
carrying three weapons of that size would be too much?"

Satoshi grinned. "For that, I have a
special weapon planned. Seeing the demonstration for the swallow and scimitars
together gave me an idea. I was going to make a set of scimitars that can fuse
together at the hilt when the wielder wishes. This would cut down onf
weight and add a surprise on the battlefield. I would be glad to have Tsukiyo
learn to use it. ~~Her~~She and
Ino have been great friends with Tenten, so it'd
be good for them to train together."

"Hey squirt, ask if you can have them made to take
on your elemental affinity. Wind and Fire are powerful allies when used
together and this sounds perfect for you to start learning about your
affinities." Naruto had been planning for Tsukiyo to use some sort of
weapon since she was more of a speed and grace style person instead of speed
and power like him.

"I agree with Naruto on this, kit. I
was going to start your elemental training soon, so this
will be a good way to start." Ryoko was amazed at Tsukiyo and Ino's
progress over the last year. Not only had they both mastered tree
climbing, but Tsukiyo had mastered water
walking and was working on kage bunshin while Ino was finishing with water
walking.

Tsukiyo gave Naruto and Ryoko a mental nod and bowed to
Satoshi. "Satoshi-san, could you make it so one can be used with my fire
affinity and the other my wind affinity?"

~~Inochi~~Inoichi
gave Tsukiyo a sad smile. "I'm sorry Tsu-chan, but
something like that would be too expensive for us right now."

Satoshi laughed. "Tsu-chan, if you can prove to me that
you can use such a weapon after two years training with me and control the
elements of fire and wind, I'll make it for you for free."

Tsukiyo looked up at the big burly man with a huge smile.
"You mean it?" Seeing him nod, Tsukiyo
gave the man a huge hug. "I promise to train real hard to prove I can use
it!"

Satoshi smiled at the girl,.
"Good, because I'm going to work you to the bone along with Ino-chan. I
want you both at my forge by eight am every weekday. You'll both train with me
until two pm at which you can go home and do your other training."

Tsukiyo and Ino both nodded enthusiastically. They both had
a real hard time getting to sleep that night from their excitement, neither of
them knowing the hell they just signed up for.

Hey guys and girls! How'd you like the latest installment of
OMITB? It was easy once I got the writers block I affectionately name 'Mihoshi'
that was bugging me on ASLDM out of my head! Well I like how this chapter came
out. At first I was worried that the family scene was off but after reading it
over found it was ok. I have no clue what Sakura's parents actually do so I
figured I'd give them a clothing/ninja equipment store! Next chapter will have
their training and them entering the academy. Originally I was going to skip to
the academy after the family scene but figure I should go over their training
and the exhibition scene now instead of flashbacking to it. Now to answer some
reviews!

Dragon Man 180: I second your Yay for NaruFemKyuu! As for
Tsu-chan's pairing I have decided but I will be keeping you guys in the dark
just to see you squirm! Muahahaha! As for Ino being Tsu-chan's sister I always
thought Ino and Naruto could be brother and sister. Their both load, annoying,
and blond!

Death Incarnate: I really try and be original with my
stories. I wanted to do a 'Do Over' fic without the over used time travel plot
devise. Then I was watching Tenchi Muyo and it clicked, Multiple Universes! And
as an ode to my inspiration I gave Kyuubi the name Ryoko since she was
supposedly the most powerful demon in the universe.

Canis Black: Hum I was thinking of screwing around with
someone's gender and I found my target so stay tuned!

Kyuubi Fanatic: Yead it was the sight. I found a way around
it its just a pain!

Vysen: Like I told Death Incarnate I wanted to do a 'Do
Over" and figured having him end up in a girl him was too much fun to pass
up! I think I covered the NaruKyuu question in the chapter, as for Tsu-chan
allot of people have asked me NOT to pair her up with Sasuke. Since the pairing
is set in stone I am happy to say it's not Sasuke.

NarutosBrat: It'd be funny if Lee had a ridiculously low
tolerance for that as he does for alcohol. BTW there is no TECHNICAL yoai in
ASLDM. Haku just happens to be both.

spiritwolf30: Once again she won't be with Sasuke. I kind of
have a dislike of him. You'll come to see this as both my stories progress.

D: Hum, good idea but I got plans for Hina-chan so she stays
the same.

surprised: Thanks! As for pairing once again You'll have to
wait and see! As for control issues her training before the academy is to keep
that from happening.
