~Why?~

[~Yumi :: Kaori~]

~Yumi Mino~


The maiden's eyes hit the village that was almost completely destroyed by the ninja war but it was being rebuilt... It was no longer a beautiful village nor one of the greatest ones in history. It fell with itself name.Her family was now gone, like dust there before her laid the grave of her sisters... It read 'Kaori Mino... A lover, an ANBU, and lovable sister.' The pinked hair female collapsed onto her knees, just balling those Aqua orbs out. It finally hit her, Yumi was the very last of her clan. She had no one left just that she was all alone. Not even Eiji would be able to help her now. It was just too late...

About an hour of sobbing her eyes out, she raised from her knees and stool there within the white sundress and high heels with the heels as a heart shape. Her hair was in a gigantic ponytail held by a bunch of flowers. No longer did it matter on who she liked, Eiji, Sasuke and Naruto.Her duty was the most important thing at the second. To go back to Hanagakure and run it... After a while it would be to find a man and do what anyone would... Get Married and have kids... If she had to live in a loveless marriage, then she will, just as long as her clan was alive. There was no way Yumi was going to get revenge, she didn't want to become like Sasuke Uchiha, so drove to kill one person. It was truly sad how she liked him once. Eiji spoke how she should have forgot about him, and she did. Yumi moved to fast for Sasuke, she actually moved on..


The sky was clear and the glorious sun just radient sown upon that long silky cotton candy hair while it just danced within the calm winds as the eyes just looked up sadly. "Why did it have to be her? Why didn't she just move?" That man... Who Kaori had fallen in love with plus her teammate.. "I am so sorry..." Flowers began to blossom all around the grave as Yumi commanded it to. It didn't take that much chakra, Kaori was worth everything. Without Kaori now, Yumi had no one to make mad, no more big sister, no more mother-like figure... Rumors about Naruto said that he was brainwashed; Sasuke was still seeking out revenge... and Sakura was still wanting Sasuke but sealing Naruto.. It was not right how that woman played around with Naruto's heart, made her pissed.. Forgetting about everything for just a second as she got herself together... An minor earthquake happened once rather old dragon landed and looked at her, but Yumi just smiled Quietly as she stood by the river and giant statues....

Yumi, just stood there with a false smile while the flower petals brewed around her and her eyes closed gently. "It is sad, that I am only Mino alive..." The dragon lower itself neck down to face her, it was old Ryouichi. He was youngest dragon but now was the main dragon. Ryuuichi had died just a few years old from the sight from an Uchiha, it happens when you are living out your life in fear. Then those eyes appeared, but this time they glowed with such calm impulse.

=============

Following the death of Kaori Mino, Yumi started to become almost distant from the man that was standing under a tree letting the light barely touch his face, his eyes were red with 3 black pupils surronding them. With hair almost as white as snow he slowly turned toward the scene that he was now watching, Yumi was kneeling down next to the grave as flower slowly came up from it. He walked slightly foward, leaning up against the tree, unnoticed because of the single fact that she was probably too upset to concentrate. This man's name was Eiji Shigara. Over the years he had grown into a great person, watching out over the village that he swore to protect, what wasn't good is that he was being torn between two places, going with Yumi and staying here to try and be Hokage. But what he did know was that he was going to have enough time to think about what he was going to do, because of the single fact that he was choosen to escort her to her village.

Pushing slowly off of the tree slowly walking forward, he was stopped dead in his tracks by the chakra that he knew all too well. The dragon that was basically Yumi's guardian. Even though Yumi never really talked about this dragon, Eiji always knew that it was there. He could sense it with his eyes. The weird part was that about 1 and a half years ago Eiji was actually sent on a mission to rescue a Uchiha, when Eiji returned his eyes had changed from the normal, they were slightly darker red, and the only time they would become normal was went he dreamt. It wasn't a constant strain on his chakra was the weird part, it was almost as if something was giving him the chakra to keep it open. This made it a little hard on him because he could do most things that most people couldn't now and read through people's movements and notice things that people didn't want him to notice. Basically other's called him an accursed, but he thought of it as a blessing from the Uchiha clan, thought they did not acknowledge this.

Walking slowly over toward the two, his hands in his pockets, he was now a anbu. But one of the ones that was just playing another role as anything, a normal villager but only to go on missions like these to help guard people. The breeze made a cold chill run down Eiji's spine, almost like something on this mission was going to go wrong, but they would have to find out what on the way there. No time for any omens, they needed to get there fast.

"It is time to go, Yumi." He commented as he looked up toward the dragon that was flying around her. Nodding his head a little bit. "It should be a 5 days treck, or 2 days if we don't stop to rest. But i suggest we do." He told her, his voice was sincere, he knew the pain that she had.

[~Yumi :: Kaori~]

The now pinked hair female just stood there, right where the fight of Naruto and Sasuke's Fight had broke out. Those cold eyes just started at the crystal waters, a familiar man voice was heard. Not a reply was received from Yumi, she wanted to cry even more... But as she had became the Hanakage, it was hard enough to let emotions appeal. Once more those orbs had widen the moment that she realized the voice... 'Eiji-kun?' Swiftly made a 90 degree turn of her body, the body shivered as the man was now an ANBU. By now Yumi would have thought he would become the Hokage by now, but he had chosen to escort her to Konohagakure. Yumi was now 18 years old, yet she still felt like it was only yesterday Eiji and herself were holding hands as they were little kids, then became watchers over team seven and now this. Her mind sparked with so much ideas but only thing that was released from those fine pink lips was a phase.

"Eiji-san!" He looked so different... He looked more mature but worried her was he had something on his mind. Eiji was hiding in the shadows for no reason... Tears began to swell up in her eyes, as everything just drove past her mind just haunting her. Yumi had to be the most selfish person in the world, she had everything she wanted... Eiji, and a sister who was lovely. Her white dress danced as the winds breezed pasted her. It was weird, all this time it was always Eiji not Naruto or Sasuke. Neither of them came to her help when she wanted or even needed the most. Her love might have grown to love all but it was always held back for someone special. "Ryouichi please go ahead of us..." Yumi spoke softly just wanted to be alone with him for just a bit. Maybe it would clear her mind a bit more. Ryouichi just knew what was going on, and did what his master wanted. Soaring into the sky and towards Konogakure. Her focus turned towards Eiji... The man who called her a fool... Her aura was swirled as mixed feeling approached the surface, and that lower lip was ripped by her teeth biting down onto it. It was awkward enough that she had not seen him for so long. Kaori duty was only, it was her turn. Yumi had to do something about it but she didn't know what.

"I am sorry Eiji... I didn't mean for you to see me like that." Yumi placed her hands to her side, and smiled gracefully. It was something alright but those tears still were in the corner of her sapphire eyes. How Yumi felt embarrassed was not the words were only one to be expressed. Eiji loved her for sometime, but she doubted he would even have waited for her. Yumi knew about the Uchiha blood, it didn't matter to her, no matter how he tried to hide it, it always showed to her like she did to Eiji. It was just what those childhood friends know..

She heard it was time to leave but Yumi didn't really want to.. Yumi within that beautiful sheet white sun dress just made her look like angel. Yumi whipped those building tears away and sighed heavily. It was time to leave the past, so she began to walk towards the village..Kaori's grave was literally was covered in flowers, and that right hand reach out... "We should get there soon enough.. Nothing will happen Eiji-san..."

[Eiji Shigara]

Eiji kept walking over to her and then stoppped about 5 feet from her person, loking her straight in the eyes as she spoke outloud his name, just two words and nothing else. "Eiji-san" He smiled at her a little bit, he didn't think she wouold recognize him after all that had happend over the years. He could see that she was slightly crying and he moved his hand up, touching her cheek slightly wiping off the tears that were running down her face. She looked beautiful in his eyes, she had changed so much but looked so familar to him. He smelled the fresh air as he was standing there, taking in the aroma that he remember all too well, the smell of flowers on the air that always reminded him of her. He had thought about her over the years that they had been apart, since the last time he talked, he felt bad for what he had said. But he wasn't going to say anything about that, if it did register that it was most likely a good thing that she noticed.

Dismissing her dragon he then looked into her eyes, slightly turning as he did. He put his hand against his wrist as a mask formed in his hand, the anbu mask that he summonded had 3 red marks almost like a lion had clawed at his face. He then placed it slowly over his face. For the moment they were still around the leaf village and he didn't want anyone to see his face until they would get out toward her village a little bit more. I am sorry Eiji... I didn't mean for you to see me like that." Were the words that had came out of her mouth. He chuckled a little bit as he moved his mask from his face and looked into her eyes. "It's okay, Yumi. I understand that pain you must be going through, just keep your head held high, you are a kage now. Also i have seen you in similiar situations where you would cry." He spoke to her, you could tell just from the sound of his voice and the way that he spoke that it was different, his voice rang out, deeper then it used to be as he was now an adult.

This was going to be the decision of his life, stay with Yumi in her village in which she would be Kage, or come back to the village and be what he always dreamed on being. He had always loved her, even now when they had been apart for so long, after he had months and months to try and forget about her, after seeing her again for the first time in years. All of the emotions had come back as he smiled a little bit, then moving his mask back over his face.

"Yes, i know nothing will happen. I won't let anything happen to you or myself." He chuckled a little bit under the mask. "I have become a lot stronger since the last time you saw me." Turning to look at her, you could see his eyes through the holes on the mask as he then walked through a small brush and there stood a small stream where he bent down and took his water canteen and filled it up for the journey that they would be taking.

[~Yumi :: Kaori~]

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

How did it come to be that he had not became the Hokage? It was his long life dream to become the ruler of a village... But why was he ANBU? Her eyes glowed with some joy as his gentle hands wiped those cursed tears. That very warmth she remembered since she was just a special force genin, had reappeared from Eiji.. Her lace gloves cover his own and absorbing the loving warmth. He spoke of her seeing cry so many times, this was true bit was a bit harder cry now. It came a distant away from the two, that odd space made her still unhappy. Her long shimmer pink hair framed that darling face of hers showing that it kinda happy, but that smile was still lack the hope that it once had. Eiji was already or properly knew that he is one of handsome fellows that she seen... The wife, he must have and the child. Lucky woman... A sweet irresistible scent from his direction, it smelled just like he had once at that festival, a smell of home. "Always, you knew how to make me smile Eiji-san..." She loved him and two other people but when they left her. The feeling for them were completely shut off to the world, dispite her being the first to leave the village. Sasuke, betrayed the village soon after and she saw everything beyond that. Yumi was someone who would linger around but when she saw everything. She grew cold to the Uchiha, a stupid boy indeed. Naruto... He was a different story...

Eiji was always there, making promises to her and wanting to love her... Of course like any fool; She was blind by Uchiha. Nothing more then sweet foolish desires. Yumi could blame them, team seven for fucking up her life a bit more. If she had not seen either of them, Eiji might have been her husband without a doubt. When his hand pulled away from her, she cupped her cheek with a red blush going across her face. Even if he had a wife, she would still love him no matter what. He was going to protect her... Problem mainly the Uchiha who went rouge was still out there, she wasn't afraid but he was going to have followers, very strong followers. Eiji spoke to her how he grew stronger but his voice made that blush a bit deeper. He did mature so much more then before. Her other hand just pulled one for her flowers from her hair piece just to stroke the silk petals. "I know you have Eiji-san, You always have..." The orbs just watched the man refill his water canteen. He grew more, very time in to a man and now he was protecting her, as if she was just a single flower.

Her heels dug into the ground as she began to walked away from the selection area and into the forest with her head high in the air and just glancing over her shoulder, "Eiji-san, You protected or at least tried to protect me from that stupid kid... I was just dumb to not listen to you." Yumi spoke so softly just shift her eyes down the path, it was a straight line. Crushing the elegant flower, and letting the wind just have the remains of it. How it was true, many things still haunt her still and some might not make it off of her chest.

Her silent prolonged until he would speak... He was always right, nothing came out of him like she once thought have, though there a bit of feeling still shunning her heart telling not to do it. That bottom lip was slightly nipped by the upper teeth, as her mind just swirled around her. All these actions she wish to say sorry were killing her so. All she wanted was someone... Yumi might have hope, she might dream, she might love, but it doesn't mean she would get what she wants..

[Eiji Shigara]

Filling up the water canteen all of the way he then turned around as Eiji looked over at Yumi, she was looking over her shoulder with a flower held lightly in her hand. She spoke to him, saying that she was dumb that she didn't listen to him. His eyes glazed over, a little sad that she would say something like that about herself. She looked straight ahead as he was following a little bit behind her, all of the sudden petals fell from her hand, she had crushed the flower, quickly swiping his hand through the air he grasped all of the petals and then caught the stem, putting them in one of his palms he took his other hand and cupped it over the other one with the flowers as his palms grew green. Then he disappeared appearing directly in front of her, holding the stem showing her the flower as he looked up into her eyes. Even thought his eyes were black and red thanks to the sharigan you could tell there was something in his eyes.

The breeze blew as he put her flower up into her hair, the aroma that was coming off of her made Eiji feel almost completly at home. "Your not dumb for not listening to me. It just means you were blinded by your feelings, even though you might not think it that way. But you know, there's probably someone out there that's perfect for you. So don't think about it too much, Yumi." He said in a calming tone, almost as thought he was casting a spell, the words just came right off his tongue. Smiling at her he then blushed a little bit as he was still standing close to her because he gave her the flower. Stepping back a little bit, clearing his throat a little bit he turned back around and started walking on.

He didn't know what to say to her but he did know they had better be camping soon, they didn't leave at the best of times so now it was getting dark as the moon was rising. Looking back at her he smiled under his mask. "We might want to camp soon, it's getting pretty dark out and i don't think we should be walking out in the open in the middle of the night." It also was getting a bit chilly out as well and he wasn't going to let either of them get cold and then get sick.

[~Yumi :: Kaori~]

When Eiji appeared in front of her, he held the flower...The flower that he healed had to be something amazing... His eyes... It was there...Those sharigan had appeared but something else that stood out the most. The way he glanced into her eyes was that same way he did when he was little... It felt at home, It was not fair at all that she could not have it. When he got closer to her to put the pink flower into her hair, she could not help but blush heavily... A kage was suppose be a greater being who is perfect for some reason Yumi felt like a Geisha. Many men desired to be with her but none was the high standards to be with her, she felt like was just entertaining everyone else. Yumi wanted to tell him, how it was him... She was blind always has been until recent times. The days she stood up to about three in the morning just thinking about her future and how the past events might over screw her. The Uchiha might... No he will be looking for Yumi soon enough. This time, he came for her it would be with Eiji, he could not get her away from. When he spoke of someone being out there, it really hit her low. She wanted him... Yumi was the very last of her clan, she no longer had anything but Eiji, the clan house was surely destroyed by the attack. "It is you..." Her shallow voice spoke quietly, it had everything to with him...

Swiftly nodding to thank him as along with the fact agreeing to the camp out. Her sky blue eyes moved up to the gorgeous multiply colored sky and the moon that peered out from that sky. Simply amazing... Pulling out from her bag was a flowery sleeping bag, a familiar sleeping bag something Eiji had got her before she left. Of course she would use it... "Don't start a fire... The people was wishing to speak to me are within the area... They will know..." Yumi started rather calming, just trying to receive her attention again. Now she was acting like the kage she was, that wind made her pale white sun dress just dance with pleasure. That very aura overwhelmed her, that aura made any man shutter...

A gentle smile made its way to the surface just showing that she was of course enjoying herself. It didn't matter anymore, nothing matter, the past was the past but what she wanted to know what about Eiji... Settling the sleeping bag onto the ground and just planting herself onto it, then gazed at him... Her lips began to move without thinking, "Will you tell me why you have not become the Hokage?" Her hands just placed on her lap just playing with a simple departing gift from a little girl... It was four dolls, it creep her out just a bit how each one of them look like the people... Herself, Eiji, Naruto and Sasuke... Everything was perfect, but the both the doll of herself and Eiji was glowing slightly...

[Eiji Shigara]

Did he just hear what he think he heard? His ears perked up a little bit, he could have sworn that he heard Yumi say that it was him, that it was always him. He simply looked around a little bit, wondering if he had even heard it right. His heart seemed to skip a beat as he heard that, a series of emotions ran straight through his head, happiness, anxious, anxiety, love. He had the sudden urge to just turn around and kiss her, surpressing that and many other things as he gently smiled under the mask, bringing his hand up he then slowly took off of the mask as it disappeared, he didn't need to wear it anymore. Being so close to where they had to meet the other people. Looking over at Yumi, the dress she was wearing just brought out her beauty and then magnified it 100 times. He also noticed that a small bit of blush appeared on her face. Maybe i did thing right, maybe she really does want to be with me. He thought to himself.

They arrived at a small open spot that Eiji picked out he was about to start a fire so they could rest when she told him not to. Her aura had changed a little bit, she seemed more as a kage then anything now. He looked at her, nodding his head a little bit. Then he was off in a flash, scouting out the area a little bit. Jumping from tree to tree, being careful not to make any noise he then performed a shadow clone jutsu and then made his clones hide behind things as he arrived back at the site that they were camping at.

Making some hand signs he then placed his hands onto the ground, a wooden house appeared in the small encampment, it had one floor inside and it was about 12x12 feet so that they would be able to sit inside of it. "Will you tell me why you have not become the Hokage?" He heard her say as he looked over at her. He sighed a little bit. "I actually am planned on becoming HoKage when i get back to the village, but i don't know if i want it anymore. I found out that theres something that is better then becoming HoKage." He paused "Well not something, but mainly a person." He stated without looking over at her. He placed two different beds on the ground so that they could lay down. "If you want to take a nap you can, ill awake you when they come." he stated with a gentle tone in his voice as the wind started picking up outside.

[~Yumi :: Kaori~]

This made her gain a sweatdrop slowly getting up once more and packed the mat away. Yumi didn't mind where ever they sleep, but she like to sleep under the stars. "You promised me that you would become Hokage..." Her eyes closed for a moment and then began to worry about her village. All the females who had came in from the war, and all those child who didn't know what was happening. It made her shiver to thinks about what they had seen... Sasuke would surely seek her out and Naruto would want her to be his side. It was hard enough to shake the Uchiha but to shake the kid she was suppose to protect...No-less it was all finish until she helped everyone who she promised.. Her sweet cherry blossom hair just gracefully swept along her body as she pulled out the flowers.. The Sasuke doll began to glow a red aura. Entering the small house, her hand swept across his smooth face with that sweet and gentle smile... Without a worry in heart placed the dolls onto the bed ignoring the glow of the raven hair doll. Eiji would protect her... if he could not, she would protect him.

He was a charming young fellow himself so was she. Both in the prime... Mellow as she was, she wanted the world to herself but only things that were most important. He was smarter then her, everything that she thought she was good in, Eiji was best. "Thank you taking this mission... It makes me feel so chipper...But I wish you would become the Hokage... but for that person..." She spoke just sitting herself down onto the cotton bed, twirl with the Yumi doll. Within a second Yumi just tossed him the tiny doll of herself to him after that she held the Eiji doll within her warm embrace...

The doll beside her, Sasuke's began to glow purple, this caught her eye... This was not good, he was coming with three other people. Her skin quivered with chills of the fact he was coming for her and her help. This was not that good, if he had for people that was strong... Then it was true, Yumi did request him. Sasuke when he was little didn't want to mess with Eiji because he knew he would be out bested. Eiji was always the one who out rank, but if Yumi went hardcore... She could possibly take them down by herself, but she would surely outsmarted hi. "Hehe...."

[Eiji Shigara]

At the mention of himself promising her that he would become HoKage, he lost himself for a moment there, he was shocked, stunned at what she had just said. Looking over toward her with saddness in his eyes. The only reason he would ever break a promise is for love. It was either that he would go with Yumi, be with her in her village. Or go be a Kage in the leaf village in which he would probably never see her again unless Eiji tried and take over her village and the people in it, but he could never do such a thing, he was too kind hearted and too nice to even think about doing something like that. Ecspecially to the one that he loved.

For a couple seconds his eyes went toward the stars, they were beautiful he wondered just how far the stars were away from them both, maybe they were futher away then the moon in the sun. His ears perked up a little bit when Yumi started talking again, he looked over at her, into her beautiful eyes. Smiling lightly. "I had no problem coming on this mission to help you, that was the least of my worries, i felt almost like i needed to come and help protect you. Also as for that person, let's just say if i become HoKage i would never see her again, except every few years when our paths crossed. Maybe not even that." He stated as he looked straight into her eyes, almost as if he was looking into her soul. Quickly then catching the Yumi doll that she had thrown at him, he smiled a little bit, with this no matter where she was he would always be able to find her, even if she was miles upon miles away.

He then noticed something out of the corner of his eye, Sasuke was coming, his doll was starting to light up slowly and then quicker. He smirked a little bit, after all of these years he was going to be able to take down Sasuke and bring him into the villages for questioning upon other things. He slowly stood up and then walked over to his bag as he got out a scroll, making hand signs he then placed his hand onto the scroll as a weapon popped out. It was a sword, but not a sword that was regular, it had something inside of it, the metal was made of something that made it incredibly strong and durable.

"How many do you think are coming, Yumi?" He questioned as he swung the sword around and then placed it within a sheath on his back, then pulling Kunai out of his kunai pocket and twirling them around a little bit placing them back in the pocket. Making hand signs again. "Summoning Jutsu." A couple of Dogs came out of the smoke that had now came up, Eiji dropped some stuff on the ground, traps upon other things as the dogs then bolted around and started to make traps. "Are you ready?" He asked Yumi with a slight smirk on his face.

[~Yumi :: Kaori~]

"I had no problem coming on this mission to help you, that was the least of my worries, i felt almost like i needed to come and help protect you. Also as for that person, let's just say if i become HoKage i would never see her again, except every few years when our paths crossed. Maybe not even that." Those words shunned Yumi for just a split second before she replying... It was a bit harder to say something. Nothing like this happened to her, but maybe when he told her about become a kage when they were little. Her hands pulled that flowered into her hair once more and looked away. "You would see her more then you think, if the two villages from a pact..." Yumi spoke slightly wise before pulling her attraction to her doll...

It was showing a signal that she didn't like what so ever. Sasuke was too close... Those blue eyes just closed has, she pulled the white dress over her head, to reveal a battle outfit... It was proper to take down someone or four... The outfit was tight fit but it showed out every curve she had. That long bubble gum hair was not down from the pony tail and just flowed everywhere.. It was most fitting of the Flower Kage... Those orbs reveals, walked past Eiji to stand by the front entrance, just to state "Four at least." Yumi was not sure, because those dolls were suppose to be normal not some type of track device.. A smile appeared at her face... "I shall- Someone interrupted her...




"AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!YOU ARE NOT SASUKE!!" A bloody scream could be heard as it ran past the house, Yumi opened the door with cautiously looking around but then see a red haired female shirtless, covering what she had for breast with her hands dashing away from a Ryouichi who had transformed into a human form. "COME BACK!! I AM NOT DONE YET!" He whimpered softly with Karin's Top and bra in the same hand, then just look to the right with those piecing gold eyes noticing Yumi. Running up to her and transforming back into the tiny dragon he was. He had the two female's object with his tiny hands, Yumi on the other hand could not help but laugh nice and hard. Her right hand covered her mouth as she pointed at the female who hid herself with the bushes.

Ryouichi canted his head to the right and just curious looked at his laughing master.. Karin those beat red cheeks without those glasses on, just trying to hide her body from anyone. "How stupid am I?!" Karin was fooled by the dragon who disguised himself to be what she wanted... but it broke when she noticed the scar on the Sasuke's chest. It was not him.. Then something went off, the person Sasuke was tracking... Was the laughing pink haired female, without thinking like a moron she is, stood up and pointing to Yumi "That is her Sasuke-kun!" Karin barked at the endless forest, as if something was there. Why would he want to find a female?! That was not going to be pretty if she was going to have to share HER Sasuke-kun.


Calming walking into the scene was the quiet Juugo who was muttering to himself.."Karin... I heard..." His red eyes began to look around to see a dragon who had that purple shirt of Karin and a black bra, he muttered something about killing the female... Juugo knew who he was looking for but there was no doubt the female because Karin's loud mouth had proven that. The woman knew what she was doing, and he didn't care. Orders were orders... Problem was on the way there, he found people who caught him on his random rage fit. Blood dripped from under that blue cloak that wrapped around him, now thanks being about 6'6... He stood out with that wild orange hair. Juugo just stood there just watching at the female just to see what would happen.

Yumi recovered her mind and threw back Karin's clothing... Ryouichi just pouted as he landed upon her shoulder... That brought tears to her eyes, this was his team... A Jail bait whore and a weird guy... She didn't like this at all from what she was picking up from Juugo, so standing up straight and that smirk that could call thousands. "There is one more plus Sasuke...Eiji.... But if this is it... That is sad, thinking he would able to capture me with just three morons, don't you think Eiji-san..."

[Eiji Shigara]

Eiji chuckled a little bit as he looked over at her, blinking a few times as his black pupils that form the sharigan were spinning rapidly. He was ready for anything. When she said that thought, when she said the single thing about the two villages making a pact he smiled a little bit. That may be true, sadly it would be a long walk in between them but it did mean that he would be able to live out his dream as well as see her. "I never said anything about her being of a different village, but i do believe you have caught me red handed, Yumi." He chuckled a little bit as he pulled out two kunai, then the girl came along.

Eiji watched as the girl ran through and then a guy came in after he, holding a bra and a top. Eiji couldn't help but laugh, as he looked at her as she ran behind a bush. But he turned around as he heard something and a man stepped out of a bush, he wasn't about to attack he needed to make sure they were hostile first, but then he spotted the blood a few seconds later. He looked over at Yumi for a quick second and then heard a couple of other footsteps, then a rustle of leafs as Sasuke Uchiha appeared in the middle of the little encampment. Eiji looked over at him, smirked a little bit as Sasuke quickly looked around and spotted Yumi, walking toward her slowly, lightning coming off of his skin and from his sword. "Seems to me like you haven't changed a bit, still in love with Eiji Shigara i see." Chuckling a little bit he then looked back at Eiji. You could see his eyes, the redness of them and then thing on the back of his neck. He had a white robe that went around his body, and a rope that was around his waist with black pants.

Eiji moved quickly as he threw two Kunai straight at Sasuke and then began to run at him, the two kunai had paper bombs on them. It got 5 feet away and then there seemed almost as if water came up from the ground and then the kunai went into the water and drenched the paper, making the ink come off and making the paper bomb, just paper. A figure formed from the water, carrying a sword as he looked straight at Eiji. Smirking at him. "Seems like i get to kill a leaf ninja today, do you mind, Sasuke?" He questioned, not taking his eyes off of Eiji. "Go ahead Suigetsu, not like i care what you do with him. Actually if you would please just hold him off for a couple seconds, i want Jugo killing him." Sasuke stated.

Suigetsu sprinted straight at Eiji, pulling his sword back and then swinging it horizontally at Eiji. But it was intercepted by a kunai that blocked the sword. Eiji's strength caught Suigetsu off guard for a split second in which Eiji had already gotten inside the reach of the sword and then punched the man straight in the stomach sending him flying back. Eiji then glanced over at Jugo, grasping his shirt as he then threw it on the ground, throwing kunai and shuriken in rapid succession straight at Jugo.

Sasuke then turned his attention back over to Yumi, grasping the sword a bit harder, his fingers turned a bit red. "I always did hate you." He told her before raising his sword up in the air and then bringing it vertically right at her.

[~Yumi :: Kaori~]

Yumi didn't even bother turning around to talk to Eiji about catching him red handed.. He played himself... The way he spoke about how it might take years to see 'her' again, she assume it had to be her. This female was not a fool unlike other who scurried to put her clothing on. Not even a second a later, Sasuke had shown himself but his attention went straight to her. This was not awkward at all being center of attention but it was. He acted like she was book, and he read every page of her. This was not how she wanted her afternoon to be but she had to get this done with.. She rather do it with Eiji there, then do this alone..

Yumi's eyes just rolled and looked away carelessly "Eiji, Look it is same brat as few years ago! Only thing that changed is his ego and the butt bone!" Yumi could not help but laugh after that so softly. Ryouichi didn't like the Uchiha and took off above the fight... Oh she was in spirited mood for just a second until after this crazy guy appeared out of a mere puddle that had canceled out Eiji's bombs... This thing spoke him killing Eiji which making her tone out for a second but came back when Sasuke told him just to wait so Juugo could kill him. Who was this guy?

When Sasuke eyes laid upon her, she brought her own back... Yumi didn't like this anymore she had liked Sasuke, it was not even love stuck dumb like Sakura or Ino, she was always quiet about those emotions even when she was young.. It was Kakashi's fault for even bring her to the team while Sakura was missing, even when Yumi had gotten her entire clan to beg for to be switch back to her old team.. Those blue orbs had no longer showed themselves but a golden eyes that would piece the very soul in their place and The sword hit her arm which appeared now covered in green scales, the lightning was absorbed by the scales. The seal on her back began to sizzle and those pupils grew long..."Well You know what..." A smirk curled upon those precious pink lips and continued "At least, I never had liked you to even know you." Yumi's leg did a sweep kick towards Sasuke's low legs as she ducked under. Eyes of the dragon traced along the way, just looking for the water creature or what ever it was... Her biggest worry was Sasuke and getting him off of her trail, if he could wish to fight then he got it cut out for him... "What do you even want, if you hate me so?!"

~~~~

Now Juugo didn't compute with that order, that comment came out of the pink haired female made him pissed... Dodging Eiji's weapons fury and ran towards the two who started to fight, his eyes pierced so heavy with the blood lust. He wanted her dead, and now! That blue cloak was release from the wrap around his shoulders then was lost in the dust. His seal matter began to spread across his left arm and his face changing that side brown but his arm grew bigger rather spiky. This was going to be something, he might regret but he was insulted.

"DIE!!!" Juugo screamed boom rushing the flower kage by jumping from above and about to land a blow. Many people say he didn't want to be kill, but it was his true nature... To Kill... To kill those who mocked him, those whom called him weak. Those who got in Sasuke's way. Juugo didn't care if he wanted the girl for his own, she was going to learn. That killer intent was wanting this female on her knees begging for her life...

~~~~~~~~~~

Karin stood there as she swiftly got her clothes back on right there in open public. Making a pigish noise as watch them just go at it , there was not that much she could do for them. Karin was just a tracker/healer. No less it was entertaining to watch this girl get what she deserve, well for whatever she did. Sasuke was moving all the right ways and Karin turned a bit red. How come this female, whore was the first be notice. She was shirtless right in front of him.. Karin just scowled at Yumi and jumped into the tree to get out of the way.

"COME ON JUUGO!!!" Karin shouted, just pointing at the Male that was with that Suigetsu who could no anything to really impress her. Suigetsu was annoying to her, every time she was trying to have Sasuke for herself, he got in the way. Never in her life had she met such a moron. Sasuke was the man for her... She would have to work for him and that is what she was willing to do. Anything to grab him. It didn't matter, she had to find an excuse. Karin kneel on the branch but luck had it, something grabbed her... The dragon Ryouichi had dug it's claws within the shirt and flew away with Karin. "Jackpot!"

[Eiji Shigara]

.:Eiji:.

Noticing that Juugo was actually going straight for Yumi he then looked over toward her, he was going to attack her without even noticing it. He stopped immediately, turning his foot toward Juugo, he vanished suddenly and appeared right in front of him. Eiji was not pleased with Juugo going straight for Yumi and not fighting him. There was a puff of smoke as there seemed to be a windmill shuriken that came out of nowhere as Eiji grabbed it and then spun around and threw the shuriken directly toward Juugo.

Making a couple of hand signs he then looked straight forward Juugo, placing his hands on the ground. "Daijurin no Jutsu - Great Forest Technique" Spikes of wood came out from his hand and then straight into the ground only to appear on the right and left of Juugo as they were now coming straight at him, along with the shuriken. "That's very true, Yumi." He chuckled a little bit about what she said about Sasuke.

-=Sasuke=-

His facial expression didn't change at all as he was insulted, but she did completely deflect his sword which he was surprised a bit about that. Normally his sword would go straight through someone or anything of that sort. Her leg was coming to try and trip him up, about to sweep his feet out from under him he jumped backward a little bit and then touched his wrist as a shuriken spawned in his hand and then he threw it straight at Yumi.

Looking back he saw what Eiji was doing. He scoffed a little bit as he saw Eiji using Mokuton. He then turned back toward Yumi as his body started having a electric charge to it as he started running toward Yumi, ready to attack her with everything he had, some of the cursed seal mark started coming off the back of his neck, feeding him some chakra.
~Suigetsu~

Suigetsu was going straight toward Eiji, through the dew and the grass that had water in it, going unnoticed as he was starting to then go toward Yumi, slowly getting ready to become human form and then attack her with his giant sword.

[~Yumi :: Kaori~]

~Yumi~

The one thing she didn't, was why was Sasuke now trying kill her. It made no reason what so ever, maybe it was because he was pissed for the way she treated him, Well she was a bitch or tease to him over the time that she had to watch Naruto but only thing she really did just was to broke a promise. That promise could have not been that big of deal... That he wanted her dead for this. Eiji had saved Yumi once more... Those green dragon scales began embrace her entire body, the pain that surged through out her body but it was nothing compared when she was nine years just receiving such a painful curse..

"Eiji... You don't need to Fight anymore... I have to use it..."

By the shuriken was near her, she had only moved herself to the right. What would shot through Eiji's mind should have been the tattoo's on her arms. The only danger was that she won't be able to use that right arm, but if she going to do both.. Well Yumi has to retrain with both hands. The tattoo's on her arms began to move ever so slowly, whispering things other could not hear.. When Yumi raised her hand up, Vines wrapped around Suigetsu, then second that happened Sasuke was her worry. Her wings ripped through the back of her shirt, just in time for Sasuke charging... He was now releasing his curse mark, he was going all out on her. She dash away from the Uchiha, her wings stretched out but soon enough she was in the air, flapping those dragon wings... That pink hair was flowing everywhere as she looked upon the Uchiha as she taunted him..

"Come Uchiha. Some me the power of your fake seal."

~~Juugo~~

Once Eiji had trapped him, His curse arm deflected them back towards Eiji and jumped out of wooden's way.. Within a second that blood lust faded...Juugo saw this girl just tranform into something completely different.. That was true curse but why what was the seal that was one him and Sasuke? Maybe just a mock seal? Orochimaru promised Sasuke power, but the seal only gave him Chakra... Not something like this female had, if he had chance to fight her, He would clearly want to. Juugo back down as his own seal deactivates. He wanted to see which one would win...
