Chapter 1: A Change
I jump through the trees with my squad. We are running a patrol of the parameter of the village. In the fight against the Akatsuki Naruto died allowing Kyuubi to escape from the seal on his body. The seal broke and now Kyuubi can roam the lands and cause much damage. The village needs a lot of protection now that he is free once again because now he may be after revenge. Instead of the Jonin that normally ran the parameter patrols it is now ANBU who patrol this close and far from the village. "Kitsune-sama, our shift is finished we should head back to the village," says Hawk with a bit of tiredness in her voice. My squad and I had been running this patrol for the last thirty hours and now are about the time for us to switch out patrols. Many ninja had been killed in the fight against the Akatsuki so we are short on members meaning longer patrols with even fewer people in the squads. We ANBU are spread very thin right now with little or no help from the lower ranks. Some of the Jonin have been sent out to help us but most of them have been helping out inside the village and trying to teach the younger ninjas so we have to make do with what we have. "You all head back to the village but I am going to stay here. I have a bad feeling about this night," I reply staring out into the night. "Tsunade-sama will not be pleased with you staying out here," Dog says in a slightly bored voice. "She knows how I am with these feelings. I cannot and will not ignore them for they never lead me wrong. Now leave and get some rest. I am used to these long hours and little sleep so go now," I remind them in a serious and commanding voice when it seems they will argue with me again. Dog and Hawk head back to the village to get some rest before they have to be back out here on patrol early in the evening. I stand in my spot as this is the place that the feeling is the worse. The next patrol passes by me two times before I sense the aura that we have been dreading for the past weeks as we waited for him to come after the village for revenge. A feeling of worry for the village passes through my veins but I do not allow it to show on my face or in my body posture. I stand perfectly still not wanting to miss anything because my attention was diverted. I can tell that he is moving fast enough to cover the distance between us in about twenty seconds. It only takes him a few moments to reach where I am. I look down at him from my spot high in the trees. He is in one of his smaller forms instead of his usually large form. I send out the whistle call used by patrol members to summon the rest of their squad as he pauses beneath me. He stops in his tracks before looking up at me and growling loudly. I could clearly see his red-orange fur even from this height along with his nine tails. "One of you actually dares to wear the mask carrying my name sake," Kyuubi growls up at me. "In remembrance of a fallen comrade and to represent my nature well at least my cunningness from dealing with that comrade," I reply as I jump down closer to him hoping the ANBU squad arrives soon. "So you knew my old host did you," demands Kyuubi. "I was a close friend you could say," I answer as I hear the swift approach of the ANBU squad. "What is it that you want Kyuubi? If you wanted revenge, you would have killed me already." "I still wish revenge but I will negotiate the terms of my revenge with the Hokage. I will deal with her and only her," he tells me "Very well, I shall see if the Hokage will come out here to meet you. Inviting you to the village is just asking for you to do something. Is it not, Kyuubi-sama," I ask as the squad arrives just behind me and farther up in the tree. "Kitsune-sama, your orders," asks the captain of the squad. "Weasel, take your squad back to the village and tell the Hokage that I request her and her secretary’s presence here," I command as the ANBU head captain. “Tsunade-sama will not be happy about being summoned this early,” Weasel comments. “Tsunade knows that I always have a good reason for bringing her to places outside of the village without prior notice. She will understand when she sees and hears what I have for her. Now leave,” I growl in a slightly annoyed tone towards the captain for his questioning of my orders. "Hai," says the whole squad before leaping towards the village but not quick enough for me not to pick up on the leader’s shake of fear from my tone. We both stand there quietly for a minute neither of us really wanting to say a word towards the other. We stare at each other trying to measure how strong the other is. Both of us fail in finding the complete truth because I have chakra reserves and he has almost unlimited amounts of chakra and is in his smaller form meaning that I could not figure out how strong he truly is. Kyuubi finally breaks the silence by saying, "It was stupid of you to stay here alone." "If I had gone with them, you would have followed. If one had stayed and you wanted us both dead, you would have killed us and moved on to do what you wish. This way there is a chance you stay here and there is less damage if you decide to follow," I reply with a slight smirk behind my mask which he cannot see. "I have always hated those masks of you ANBU. It really irritates me to not be able to see my opponent. Especially when that person has the gall to talk with so lightly with no fear," he growls out. "Good thing then that we are not opponents right now huh," I ask smirking wider knowing I am getting under his skin just a little. Kyuubi does not say another word so we both stand there waiting quietly but I can sense the irritation in him growing bigger from me not showing any fear towards his presence. It takes about thirty minutes for the squad to get to the Hokage, get her up, for her to get dressed, and for them all to get back with Shizune. It was a tense silence in the area as not even the birds of the morning dared to chirp or sing a song with him here. Tsunade leads the ANBU into the clearing and turns to me automatically. She unknowingly ignores the thing we have been trying to protect the village from for a long time. "Kitsune what is the meaning of this. Waking me from my sleep when you know I do not awake before three hours past dawn on a good day," Tsunade growls at me. "Tsunade-sama, I am sorry for the disturbance this early in the morning but we have a guest come to negotiate with us," I say trying to calm her down while pointing in Kyuubi's direction and trying ot keep a diplomatic tone about me. Tsunade turns towards him and gasps in shock at him having not attacked her. I of course would have stepped forward and blocked any attack against her but I know that his actions mean he is very serious about the negotiations with us. "Hello, Tsunade baa-chan," says Kyuubi in a copy of his ex-host including Naruto’s tone of talking to her. Tsunade flinches at the memory of the young man that used to call her that not so long ago that is now dead and buried with fresh flowers on his grave. I stand back and motion for the ANBU members to stand behind me. It takes a moment for Tsunade regain her thoughts of where she is. "Kyuubi-sama, you wish to negotiate with me about your revenge, I am guessing," she asks with a calm tone belaying the way she is shaking. "That is true but I will negotiate our terms with no other being in the area," Kyuubi demands in a very serious tone. "I would be stupid to do that," Tsunade says in just as serious a tone. "Ah, but if I truly wanted to you all would be dead this very moment and the village nearly in ruins," Kyuubi replies. Tsunade and the rest of the ANBU growl agitatedly in response to his threat, and the ANBU move to attack him. I raise my hand to stop them knowing that he could slaughter them in a moment's notice even though they were strong ninja. These three are just getting started in their ANBU careers and should not have it end so soon. Kyuubi throws his head back and laughs loudly. I hate it when any one does that; it reminds of when Orochimaru used to do it when he would gloat about his power and what he gained in recent fights. "Kyuubi we would much appreciate you not throwing such information at us," I say trying to keep the ANBU behind me calm. "You are a strange one, ANBU Kitsune," Kyuubi says with a smirk across his muzzle. "I may be but I know and knew stranger people," I reply as I turn my back to them and motion the ANBU squad on with their patrol. "I shall give you the privacy you wish. Tsunade-sama you know how to call me when it is over." I slowly melt down into the shadows in a technique that I created a little before the final battle with the Akatsuki. It allows me to transverse great distances in a few seconds with very little chakra demanded to use it. It is hard to use because it demands a great deal of knowledge of terrain and extreme chakra control. Many people have tried copying this jutsue since I made it but none have succeeded yet. Many have perished because they take the chance of getting lost in the shadows and never finding their way out again or landing in the middle of a tree or mountain and maybe even the bottom of a deep freezing lake. I travel a little over two hundred yards away which is my hearing range except for a high yell or screech. Two hours later, I hear the sound of a high whistle and return to the spot where I first met Kyuubi near the village. "It has been decided. Kitsune take us to the Hokage tower so that it may be drawn up and signed," Tsunade commands. "Yes Tsunade-sama," I reply with a bow. I reach over and wrap my right arm around her left arm. I look over at Kyuubi silently asking him where I should grab him. Instead of offering something for me to grab ahold of Kyuubi wraps one of his tails around my waist. I want to shake my head and want to shiver at the weird feeling of his fur but just activate the jutsue allowing us to sink into the shadows and zipping us off to the Hokage Tower and into Tsunade's office. I release them both and sigh in relief the darkness has started sending shivers down my spine each time I use this jutsue to go anywhere even if it is just a short distance. My knees shake a little because the jutsu required more chakra to use it because of Kyuubi’s original size which he had decided to change half way through the transfer here. Tsunade walks over to her desk and pulls out a sheet of paper to start up the writing up of the terms of the truce between the village and Kyuubi. I look over at the windows and over the village that has been my home and safe haven for these past twenty-three years. I stare out of the window and allow my mind to wonder. I am forced back into focus when Tsunade claps her hands having finished the treaty. "Kitsune, you have to look over it and sign it as well as the ANBU Head Captain," Tsunade tells me with a sad smile on her lips. I look over the treaty. It states that Kyuubi will leave Kahona and the rest of the Ninja villages and well as their countries alone in exchange for one person from Kahona becoming his servant. I look up at Tsunade in shock; she just shakes her head telling me silently that that was all he would take in payment for the freeing of all the villages from his terror. I sigh and sign my name at the bottom of the treaty. When I finish, Kyuubi's full name appears at the bottom of the treaty along with his seal right beside it. On the other side of the signature Tsunade places the village stamp. Copies of it would be made and sent to the other villages so that they would know of the agreement between Kahona and Kyuubi. "Who is going Tsunade-sama," I ask as calmly as I can when I know someone would be given to him. "That is my decision and I will not take someone who is weak or unwilling to defend this village with their lives and I mean that literally," he answers for her. "Gather all the ANBU, Ninja Clan Heads, their families, and ninja clan heirs, I want them here within the hour," Tsunade orders with a frown on her face. I look over at Tsunade my eyes demanding if she seriously wants to do that. She just nods her head and motions me on. I walk over to one of the windows before pulling it open and taking out my flute from my cloak which covers my whole body and hair. I play three sharp notes repeatedly which is used to summon the people that the Hokage wants here for this selection. I learned to play a few years back when curiosity finally got ahold of me and I wanted to learn an instrument. I follow Tsunade and Kyuubi up to the roof. When we get there many of the ANBU and a few of the ninja clan heads, their families, and their heirs are there. They all gasp and move to attack Kyuubi but Tsunade holds up the treaty to stop them. They all stop and gasp in surprise at this development. They see the village symbol on the treaty and know that it has been approved by me and Tsunade. It takes a little over ten more minutes for all of the people summoned to be gathered. They all just stare in surprise at the treaty which Tsunade is still holding up for all of them to see. None of them can actually read what is on the page except for maybe the Hyuugas, but they are all silent knowing that this is the best for everyone. "Alright now that everyone is here. I want you all to be quiet until I finish with what I have to say," Tsunade demands in a very serious tone. Everyone nods their heads and she continues, "Kyuubi has agreed to leave Kahona and the other ninja villages alone and in exchange he wants us to give him a servant." Some people growl in anger but many can see the good side to this, just like I did. I can see the gears turning in many of their heads. I hate to see the village ninja looking like a bunch of piranha trying to get food. They saw this as an opportunity to move up the control ladder. "I will only take strong ninja under the age of twenty-five and over the age of seventeen," Kyuubi states shocking many of the people. I raise my hand and dismiss most of the ANBU on the roof. Over three-fourths of the ANBU are over twenty five years old. I look over at some of the ninja clans and see happiness in their eyes over their clan being safe seeing as their heir and clan head family members are over or under the age limits. I step around Tsunade and Kyuubi to come in front of them and stop fifteen feet away from them. Hawk, Dog, Eagle, and Horse walk forward to form a horizontal line behind me. The clan ninja on the roof also come to stand in a line behind me. Some of them are shaking in fear and are automatically dismissed by Kyuubi with a wave of his tail. Soon it is just Hawk, Eagle, Horse, Shino, and I standing there. "These are all great warriors. They do not shake in fear of a fate that they have no knowledge of and do not fear being forced to do something. They will do it willingly for their village. Will you not," demands Kyuubi. I bow at the waist showing my willingness to enter servitude and the others soon follow suit. I begin to think it over and step forward. I could not let any of the others go. They all have family that need them and care for them. They are the last of the great nine plus Eagle. I look Kyuubi in the eyes and bow tilting my head to the side even though no one could see my neck through my hood. Gasps spread throughout the crowd at the sight of the ANBU Captain bowing and showing submission to the Nine Tailed Fox who killed many people of this village around the time of my birth. Whispers spread out through the crowd how this is so wrong to have the great ANBU Captain bowing to the abomination of a demon. "Enough of this nonsense, Kyuubi has every right to seek retribution in some form or another it does not matter if it is through the demands of a servant or the demands of the death of the whole village which is what he can do right now because we had him imprisoned for the last twenty-three years. Kyuubi-sama, I will become your servant, if you will take me," I say bowing lower than before. As soon as I spoke up, everyone fell to silence but the moment I stop it starts up once again. They all are demanding of each other how they will make do without the great Kitsune-sama who lead them against the Akatsuki and had a hand in the killing Orochimaru. They want to know who will replace me in my leave. The last one gets people planning how to get their own up to the top of the ninja ladder. I shake my head in disgust. They all are inadvertently making Kyuubi more curios of me and willing to take me as his servant. "Kitsune, you know this means you will follow my every order no matter what it is. If you disobey one order, I shall come to the village and slaughter your family and then some of the villagers," Kyuubi tells me in a serious tone. "I am aware of the fact Kyuubi-sama," I reply. Harsh whispers spread through the group as they really start debating who shall take my place as head ANBU captain. I shake my head in disgust before raising my hand demanding silence from them all. Silence falls just before I open my mouth to crush almost everyone’s hopes. "Hawk, Eagle you both shall take over my position as Captain and I recommend to Hokage-sama that she allow both of you to one day take over as Hokage. I believe the both of you would be best for the position because you balance each other out and will make sure all decisions are fair and get the job done," I told them with a smirk hidden behind my mask. Everyone gasps in shock at the thought of two ninja being the Hokage and Captain of the ANBU. They all want to know who the two people to become Captain are. I rise from my bow and move to take my place beside Kyuubi. I stop because Kyuubi puts his paw up and motions for me to remove my mask from my face immediately. I pause for a second but the look in Kyuubi's eyes reminds me what it would mean for me to disobey him in even this small of a thing. Even though my family is dead, it just means that he would hunt down more villagers to kill. I reach up and grab my mask and hood. I pause for a moment once again not wanting to listen to the chaos that is going to reign once my hood is down. I pull the hood back and pull off my mask with a sigh. Complete silence reigns for a few seconds before as I predicted pure chaos begins. Everyone is yelling and screaming about me being in this position. Now they blame me for the releasing of Kyuubi saying it was all my fault that he was released from Naruto because I sent him on the mission knowing what he had sealed in him. I ignore them and walk towards my lord and stand to the right and behind him by a foot and a half. The only ones who are silent during the exchange are those who supported my rise to power and the ANBU. "Silence," yells Tsunade in a commanding and anger filled tone. “You dare be angered that one of the greatest women in the history of this village took up the position of head ANBU captain especially since she just offered herself to take the place of what could have been one of you.” Silence occurs in less than two seconds. People's faces are red in anger from having just found out who the ANBU Captain has been for the last three and a half years. "Sakura Haruno was selected for the position of ANBU Captain because she had many recommendations and had successfully completed almost all of her ANBU missions. She had success rate of ninety-six percent and she has instilled that success in her ANBU squads now. She has insured this village's safety many a time. I will be the saddest of us all to see her go seeing as she was my student," Tsunade tells them in my defense. "Who would recommend the pink haired girl with no ninja clan ties," demands one of the ninja clan heads. "The Nara clan gladly recommended her. She has played many rounds of Shoji and Go with us and has won many of those rounds," Shika, Shikamaru's father replies. "The Hyuuga clan also recommended her. She has faced some of us in practice fights and won many of them as well," Hyuuga Hiashi, Hinata's father, continues. "The Kazekage also gave her a recommendation. She healed many of their ninja and civilians after the attack of the Akatsuki after Shukaku was taken from the Kazekage's body," Tsunade finished in a slightly aggravated tone. I knew that they had recommended me but I did not know why they did it. I had expected them to recommend one of their own but no they each decided to put me in the office of ANBU Captain of all the squads. "Eagle, Hawk you will both find notes for you all in my office, one for each of you. I wish you luck," I say bowing respectfully to the village and its people one last time. Kyuubi wraps his tail around me and starts transporting me to some place with no warning. I feel coldness surround me as if I was being thrown into an extremely cold room or even an ice box room; the feeling is even worse than the one I get when I travel through the shadows. I close my eyes to keep them from being damaged by this cold.While AFF and its agents attempt to remove all illegal works from the site as quickly and thoroughly as possible, there is always the possibility that some submissions may be overlooked or dismissed in error.
