A large group of foreign ninjas are then seen walking towards a rather large gate which then opens to reveal the Hidden Leaf Village in all its glory, they then stand in front of a rather large and heavily constructed fence surrounding a large forest.

The Forest

Many different groups of ninjas are now standing in front of many different Gates leading into the Forest.

Is Open

The larger group of ninjas are listening to their Proctor when they see a tiger the size of a horse jumped out of foliage with a clear look of distress about only to watch as something that was quite massive and that they have never seen before comes crashing out of the foliage as well and takes one large chunk out of it and then began carrying it deep into the forest.

"The exam will be held this year in your village as I refuse to have my country look weak as well as it ninjas."

"My Lord this is not a good idea."

Several members of the ANBU are looking at a part of the wall that separates the forest from the village with large claw marks in it as one of the members asks, "it's over 40 feet high do you really think she and her pack got out?"

"That depends?"

"On what?"

"Just who the hell pissed her off!"

This Winter

"He's in here Lord Third, how do you want to proceed with this snake problem?" a young woman asked while holding her shoulder.

"Has he done anything to her pack?"

"Yes my lord!"

"Evacuate the forest at once!"

"Now now my old teacher that won't do, the fun is just getting started." the snake like man said.

"You have no idea what you've done, do you?" the old man said.

The three children from the sand village are then seen looking at a site of a wild animal attack, as the Thirds voice can be heard continuing in the voice over, "She's highly intelligent."

A silhouette of a teenage girl with long blonde hair blue eyes and what appears to be whisker like birth marks upon her cheeks is seen standing as still as any predator about to attack as the voice over continues, "She will kill anything that threatens her pack."

The blonde girl with a fan on her back then looks up with her brothers absolutely scared by what she sees, "Oh God."

The three of them are then seen and with one or two teams from the Hidden Leaf are now running towards a rather large structure in the middle of forest from what appears to be a large predator directly behind them.

The next scene shows the village under attack by foreign ninjas and what looks like flying creatures coming down at them, a girl with pink hair is seen hiding behind a rock somewhere in the village as she screams out, "RUN!"

The younger brother of the three send children looks up at one of the creatures as its shadow fall over him.

JURASSIC FOREST

Several of the enemy ninjas prepared to strike and kill a teacher and his students until he hears strange animallike sounds directly behind them only to see a young teenage girl with upright standing lizards running at them with murderous intentions.

Naruko had to admit that the looks upon their faces was priceless as she then motioned for them to follow her and her students from the outside garden to the inside training room and then into the hallway and right for a large staircase with a clear purpose.

The two Waterfall Ninja followed Naruko and her students down the main staircase and into the long hallway that was still being worked on by the construction workers and the general contractors who were overseeing things, Fu and Shibuki and Koyuki had followed her and her students into a small study that was currently a storm of activity at this time.

Behind a large desk for the staff set a middle-aged man who was very well defined and groomed currently looking over the books and then noticed the owner entering the room with several people directly behind her including the Daimyo herself, "Good day my Lady and you as will Lady Koyuki."

Naruko gave the men a nod of her head as she then spoke, "Good day to you as well Mr. Shade, are there any new developments I should be made aware of?"

He nodded his head to her and then pulled out a folder and handed it to her as he then began to speak, "The main guest rooms are now fully completed and operating so we should not have any more problems with filling them up my Lady, plus the main library has also been completed and cleaned per your request and then there is this."

Mr. Shade then handed her a folder from the top of his desk, she then began to open and read it intently as he spoke once more, "We have found several sites in the Hidden Send Village as well as the capital of the Land of Wind that would make excellent locations for future Theatre Café sites to expand the business."

Naruko nodded her head as she then picked up several files that she knew would becomes quite important and then inquired about her ship, "What about the ship and our personal dock?"

Mr. Shade nodded his head and then handed her a file as he then spoke, "The dock is finished and just awaiting the ship my Lady as for the last report that I was given on the states of the ship was it should be ready for her maiden voyage and standard shakedown cruises within a week's time."

Naruko gave him a big smile as she then walked up to Fu and Shibuki and motioned for them to follow her and her students up the main staircase into the library, the library itself was separated into two sections with a lower section filled with books armors and mementos and as for the upper section appear to be reserved for whatever group Naruko was in charge of.

Koyuki was one of the first people to sit down knowing that there was quite a lot to talk about, once everyone was seated Naruko then pulled out several files and set them down upon the nearby coffee-table.

she then began to speak, "I would like to think both of you for being in my home and Café and I was also quite happy that you were seeking in alliance with the Land of Spring, when Koyuki here told me about your message I was the one who made the suggestion for your Jinchuriki to accompany you here as it is very important that you two been made aware of several developments."

Both of them were surprised by the comment to say the least but realized that something had indeed been going on in the Elemental Nations for some time so their curiosity was quite peaked, "What kind of information could you have for us?"

"First what can you tell me about what you know about what's been happening in the Land of Water?" she asked.

The two of them were surprised by this question and looked at each other trying to see if there was some kind of game being played here, Fu and Shibuki then turn their heads to look her in the eyes again as Shibuki then spoke, "Only that they're in a Civil War of some kind which revolves around a bloodline purge of some kind?"

Naruko nodded her head in agreement as she took a sip of her Green tea which just been brought to her and then spoke as clear as day, "That's the basic story that everyone already knows about and the truth I'm afraid is much more complicated then anyone could possibly be aware of."

Everyone in the room was now captivated by what pearls of wisdom she had to share, "From what I have been able to pieced together with the help of Haku here and other contacts here and there it appears that someone has been fanning the winds of war for some unknown reason, we do know however that approximately 10 months ago during one of the battles the Mist Kage who just happens to be a Jinchuriki to the three tailed turtle suddenly changed as if a great dam had burst wide open and everything about him suddenly did a complete 180."

Fu was first of all surprised that one of her brethren had reached such a rank but had a clear understanding from the description of what had been done to him as well, "Someone put him under a Genjutsu, but why would they do that?"

This bit of information also surprised Shibuki as well realizing the kind of power someone could wield with a Kage level ninja at their disposal, "Someone wanted him to kill all those people and keep the war going on even to this day, what could possibly be the endgame?"

Naruko realized this question was coming, "To answer that question I have to ask have either of you ever heard of the group called Akatsuki before?"

The two of them nodded their heads in a negative, Naruko than realized she had a great deal to explain, "It is a group made up of S-Rank missing ninja who are as powerful as a Kage in all honesty and travel in groups of two, I have personally run into one full team and one of their former members who you've probably heard about."

The two of them were surprised by this bit of information as Fu suddenly had to ask who this former member was as she was quite curious, "This former member must be quite powerful, who is it?"

"Orochimaru of the Sannin who I might also add was the one to kill the Third Hokage during the failed invasion of the Hidden Leaf Village some time ago, the other two are just as powerful if not more." She said to them.

Shibuki had a bad feeling that these two might just be the worst of the worst and that his village was unfair for the possibility of their interference if they came for Fu, "Who are the other two that you know of?"

Naruko then took another sip of her tea and then spoke, "The first one is from the Land of Water who is named Kisame and is a former member of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist, the sword he carries has unique abilities which allow him to completely consumed another persons Chakra and in our case that of the tailed beast's Chakra as well leaving the individual completely defenseless if they are reliant on Chakra enhanced attacks or abilities."

Fu was now concerns in all honesty but only became more curious about the other potential enemy as knowledge was a useful tool, "And his partner?"

"His name is Itachi Uchiha, he is Sasuke's older brother and has a far more advanced Sharingan then his brother's with far more dangerous abilities and yet is just as dangerous without them at the age of just 13 he was already a ANBU Capt. and is trained in many different tactics he represents an incredible threat to us and is just as dangerous as his partner if not more." Naruko said to them noticing the level of shock upon their faces and the sudden realization of just how dangerous this group really was.

Fu was at a loss for words but as she turned to look at Shibuki she could see the same level of concern upon his face as there was upon hers, everything she had learned so far had pointed to the fact that their enemy was becoming quite prepared for them in every which way.

Shibuki also realize that some of their tactics and teachings for Fu were now quite possibly ineffective and having two or more S-Rank level opponents coming after you would mean you would have to rethink all of your strategies and tactics if you were to survive, all he knew for certain was is that Fu was heavily reliant on her Chakra at this time which clearly put her at a massive disadvantage.

Fu for the first time realized the disadvantage of her training and the life she had been forced to live with was to act as the villages first line of defense or as she had come to see it as a guard dog, now she knew there was a powerful group out there who might just be able to force the village to give her up without a fight and that did not sit well with her and yet she also knew they could just come for her at any time which also put her on edge.

"You intend to train me?" she asked.

"In a way, my goal is to give you and all of the Jinchuriki not only a fighting chance but also hope for the future." Naruko said to her.

"This is a lot to take in, I never would've thought that I would have a fighting chance when it came time to defend myself." Fu said.

Naruko nodded her head as she got up and spoke, "I understand and I know you need some time to think about this as we are in no rush for the moment, I've had some rooms prepared here for you two as time is valuable and we will talk more in the morning."

The two of them finished their tea and nodded their heads in approval as they were then shown the way to their rooms, everyone else also nodded their heads and went about their business knowing that there would be much discussed later.

Naruko currently set in the highly restricted area of the library which was dedicated just to the Brotherhood of Assassins at this time, since this area had just been completed she had spent almost no time going over the many documents she had brought from the other world.

She then unsealed a particular set of documents that she had almost totally forgot about, chief among them were the designs for what was known as the Ascension gauntlet a new variation on the Hidden Blade System, the designs were for a set of prototypes that were just being constructed right around the time she left that world however they have been begun sometime earlier when she had been in London.

At this moment in time she had no way of knowing if the initial prototypes and even been affected or who would take many more decades before a working model would even be available to the Brotherhood.

It was there she had met with the Frye family who lived just outside of London who Arno actually knew thanks to the first time he was in Paris when he was still in member of the Brotherhood, the English Assassins were a bit more like the Americans realizing that the Paris Council had let things get out of hand a little too much as the French Revolution had been one of the most brutal and bloody affairs in recent history making even some of the wars seem tame in comparison.

She still remembered her time in London as that have been decided to be the meeting place thanks to a particular blacksmith who had aided the Assassins on multiple occasions.

Flashback.

Arno had to admit to himself that he would never get used to sailing on a ship like me and Connor had, even though this had been a rather fast crossing I still managed to see him keeping close to the side of the ship with a mostly green complexion.

At this moment I decided to start singing a shanty knowing that we're getting close to our intended destination, "Safe and sound at home again, let the waters roar Jack. Safe and sound at home again, let the waters roar Jack."

Right at that moment the crew joined in, "Long we'd tossed on the rolling main, now we're safe at ashore, Jack. Don't forget your old shipmate, faldee raldee raldee raldee rey-rey-doe!"

Right at this moment the fog they have been making it difficult to see anything began to lift, "Since we sailed from Plymouth sound, four years gone, or nigh, Jack. was there ever chummies, now, such as you and I, Jack.

As some of the sails were lowered to make the ship more maneuverable as it got closer to port the crew began to sing their part of the shanty, "Long we've tossed on the rolling main, now we are safe at ashore, Jack. Don't forget your old shipmate, faldee raldee raldee raldee rey-rey-doe!"

As they finished this part of the song the lookout screamed for all to hear that land was not too far off, suddenly the ship was a bustle of activity as a crew prepared to dock the ship in jolly old London.

Naruko could not help but feel for her mentor as she walked up to him who was still holding on to the railing as if his life depended on it, "You do know that we are docked right?"

"Is the ship out of water then?"

"Not to my knowledge." Connor replied.

"I was afraid you're going to say that, forgive me if I make a mess before I get off." Arno said.

Naruko and Connor could only look at each other wondering how he had survived the voyage at all, they then both helped him off the ship and after a little bit onto dry land where some of his color began to return from its pale green complexion he was sporting just a minute ago.

Much to their surprise they then noticed him beginning to kiss the ground and could only comment at the same time, "Land lover!"

"Ha ha ha it's not funny you know, I'm fine most of the time but those last couple of days really did me in." Arno reply hoping for some sympathy.

"You're probably not use to the motion of the ocean Arno since it can be either smoothing one minute or I am so going to kill you the next, you're definitely a Land Assassin Mentor which is all right in all honesty not everybody is built for life at sea." Naruko said to him.

Arno on some level felt very insulted by his young student, "No respect that's what this is."

The two of them could not help but let out a tiny laugh at his statement as they then began to travel to their intended destination, after a good 10 min. walk they then arrived at a local blacksmith at the edge of London who appeared to be weighing his options considerably as the three Assassins walked up to him.

The blacksmith then turned to them recognizing them as members of the Brotherhood and relaxing somewhat and motioned for them to follow him inside, once inside they notice that the shop had been rather well constructed and in the case of Connor reminded him of his fellow blacksmith back home in America.

Arno could not help but look around the establishment quite impressed by what he had seen thus far, "I must say Sir you have quite impressive establishment here, I would want for nothing in this shop."

The old blacksmith's smiled only increase threatening to split his face in two from how large it had become as he beamed with pride at the praise and respect he had received, "Thank you master Assassin, it may be a humble shop in all honesty but I take pride in knowing that my equipment is top notch... None of that cheap crap the others seem to be trying to push off on other people mind you."

Naruko observe the old men with great intensity as well as taking in all of his features as he moved about the shop, by this point Connor have walked forward knowing that they had to get down to business, "Your shop is indeed impressive good Sir however I have a feeling that time is of the essence?"

The old blacksmith then nodded his head as he then set down clearly favoring one of his legs as he did so they did not go unnoticed as he then began to speak, "Alas you all right Master Assassin, the simple fact is I have to move out of London for an unforeseen amount of time thanks to the Templars in all honesty... I cannot risk my plans or equipment falling into their hands."

The old blacksmith then noticed that both Naruko and Arno had a functioning Phantom Blade as part of their equipment and could not help but smile getting both of their attention in the process as Naruko then asked, "You seem impressed by my equipment good Sir?"

He could not help but let out a laugh as he then spoke, "Well I should I did help design the damned thing after all in my youth, it is good to see that French Assassins can appreciate fine craftsmanship."

The old man then looked at Connors blades as well also giving them a good once over as he then spoke, "So you are the young Assassin that Achilles requested this for, I can see by the wear and tear and the superb maintenance that you have taken good care of them."

Conner was absolutely surprised as he remembered the new upgraded blades being given to him after he had been christened a full Assassin by Achilles, "I was unaware that they were originally from England, I hope this did not give you too much trouble?"

"Not at all, in fact I was already in the colonies at the time before heading back that war could have been so easily avoid if only people had listen to each other in my opinion but at the same time it may have also been quite needed and I'm afraid I'm already beginning to see signs of a new war coming with people talking about that Napoleon what's his full name again?" the old man said.

Arno understood what the old man was saying as he himself was seeing part of it as well, "Napoleon Bonaparte good Sir, and I unfortunately agree with you that problems may be coming."

The old man nodded his head as he then stood up straight and then began to walk over to one of his workstations just as a door opened up reviewing two men walking in, the older of the two is the recognize them as members of the brotherhood and proceeded to greet them, "Good day to you all, I am Sir Archbold Frye and this is my son Winston Frye."

Arno then proceeded to introduce them as well, the old blacksmith then spoke, "The Frye's here are old friends of mine and have agreed to help with the move, part of me wishes I could stay as some of the Templars are at least trying for peace but they are just a minority at this point in time and history is a terrible lesson we have all learned."

Arno could understand the old man's concerns as he remembered what had happened back in Paris, "Unfortunately I understand what you mean, it's not something I will soon forget... What is this?"

The old blacksmith then look at his workstation noticing a particular design he was working on, "Just a little something I've been working on, while not a direct combat weapon is however designed to get someone from point A to point B a lot faster especially considering how the buildings are being built here in London."

Winston was honestly surprised by the design as he gave it a once over but also could not help but take a couple of good looks at Naruko as well, in all honesty he had never seen a woman this exotic looking in all of his life.

Unfortunately for him she was quite aware of where his eyes were directed and it reminded her of the many perverts in her previous life which made her in all honesty sick to her stomach, "I would suggest you keep your eyes on the designs and not admiring my many assets so to speak."

Winston could not help but feel surprised that he had been so easily caught by her wet had a feeling that his charms could win the day with her, unfortunately she was unlike most females that he had met so far, "I'm just admiring you that all, after all I am a young man and you are a rather attractive young woman."

"Flattery is not going to get you very far with me, and unlike most women you are going to meet in your life I can kill you!" she said to him hoping to stop it advances altogether.

"I'm not trying to move that fast my exotic beauty but you are rather interesting and I would like to get to know you better." Unfortunately before he could finish his statements he felt the cold steel of her hidden blade at his throat which seemed to get the point across quite effectively.

The old blacksmith could only laugh at two as he then spoke, "Not to sound rude Archbold but your kid's got a ways to go, the lady here is clearly serious about her life and I can tell that one day you want to settle down but thus not happen anytime soon and I suggest you keep your little friend in your trousers if you get my meaning and have a little more respect for the ladies."

Winston could only nod his head realizing that he still had much to learn but also I do admit you is still quite curious about this beautiful creature beside him and felt even if there was not something physical between them they could still be friends after all she reminded him a bit of himself.

End of Flashback

Naruko could not help but smile at the memory thinking of her time in London, the particular design that were now sitting on her table were still of a advanced prototype but he was unaware if they were even practical in all honesty but could at least see the potential in this device.

The only reason she even had the designs in the first place was thanks to Winston who had come see her one week before her departure, the two of them spent the day together knowing full well that it might be the last time that they would ever see each other again.

Despite the problems they have at the beginning thanks to his raging hormones they had still become close and the best of friends, she honestly hope that he would find a good woman who could put up with him in all honesty as even his father had a bit of a wild side.

Naruko gave the documents a good once over realizing that these could come in quite handy if they could even be made at all, but then she remembered the work the new blacksmith was doing and had a strong sense of hope for the first time in a while.

She then took the documents with her as she entered her bedroom realizing it was quite late and there was much to do the next day, there was still much on her mind about what to do but that would wait until tomorrow when she was rested and ready for the day ahead.

End of C5.

Present Day Story Add On

Abstergo Entertainment, 2015.

Melanie Lemay could hardly believe what happened in the recent months ever since she had made the new head of the Entertainment Division of Abstergo, already there new Helix database and cloud servers had been severely hacked by the modern-day assassins and their new allies as well as several older enemies.

Then there had been the strange virus bomb that have sent their facility into a premature lockdown with no apparent reason, and even though they had managed to reveal the memories of an Assassin turned Templer hoping to break their enemies it had only make their resolve all the more painfully clear.

What was worse is that the Assassins had also gained access as well as restricting it from them to several key individuals that they were now looking into, Arno had just been the first many planned projects that might yield results are fortunately with these attacks and the well hidden craps and viruses that were still in the system things not looking up.

In fact they have to literally start re-recording all the old memory's as most of it had been deleted in some of the earlier attacks, they were just now getting back to the set of memories that focused on the young girl Naruko.

Melanie felt a severe headache coming on after everything that had happened and then heard the door to her office opening realizing he was about to get much worse, one of the heads of the company then walked in and it was clear by his demeanor that he expected results.

"Ms. Lemay I have come here personally hear your report on the current situation surrounding the corrupted archives, has there been any progress?" he asked.

"Yes and no, the Brotherhood is proving more dangerous then we first anticipated and I believe they have help especially from that group from Chicago." She said to him.

"I understand what you mean we were not expecting them to retaliate against us so forcibly and they have gained much ground over us, plus certain senior members are beginning to realize we may have to sue for peace as this will becoming far too connected for us to remain in the shadows much long."

Melanie understood what he was saying at she also felt the war in all honesty had gone on long enough but there were still many with great power that were not about to seek peace, "20 or 30 years ago this will be much of a problem, and with more groups relying on hacking skills we may have even more problems."

"All the more reason to find out as much as we can about her!" he said pointing to the image of a young woman on the screen with long blonde hair and what appeared to be unusual birth marks on her cheeks.

Melanie was also intrigued by this young woman, "We were able to determine that she was with Arno for around six years of his life, but thanks to the attacks it's been hard to get back to that data."

"I have faith that you will be successful in the end, everything about this young woman is a mystery and we know that she had access to one of the Pieces of Eden." he said to her.

"You think she had children?" she asked.

"I do not believe so, as I said she is a mystery and is one we must solve before the Assassins do!"

End

this chapter proved to be a little harder to write that I first anticipated plus it too far longer than I thought mainly because I was curious to get as much information as I could about syndicate, the other thing was I wanted to do something that was part of her six years in the other world.

at the same time I also began to play some other games and had other story ideas that took precedence over a few others like Arkham Knight, this also gave me time to really check the story for problems and to see if there was anything I could change.

At the same time I knew this was going to be the biggest chapter of this story I was going to write and I also wanted to get it finished up before syndicate was released as I know that I am going to be playing that particular game a lot.

plus I have several other stories to work on,
