"Don't. I don't know what you did, but don't."

I look at him curiously, tilting my head.

"Why not?" Kakashi glares at me, before sighing and answering calmly.

"Your eyes glowed blue, before turning purple. It's back to normal now, but don't do whatever you just did." I pout at him.

"Whatever. So, next Monday, same place same time?" He shrugs, poofing away. I walk away, not expecting an answer anyways. Or so I told myself. I was currently frowning at the poor grass in front of me as I walk away, deciding to try and look for Ibiki.

Maybe I should pickpocket him? Or blackmail? Or just ask… Nah, too boring. Oh! I know!

…

Ibiki wasn't expecting a group of people yelling at him that there was an intruder in the T&I department. He runs with them.

When he got to where the intruder was, he certainly wasn't expecting a child wearing a mask talking to one of his not-yet victims.

He also wasn't expecting the prisoner to start crying, yelling what Ibiki was supposed to find out about the person.

"It was Kumo! I'm from Kumo! They wanted another go at the Byakugan! I'm just following orders! Please! I have children!" Ibiki walks forward, grabbing the child's shoulder.

…

I look up from my mind games when a hand grabs my shoulder. Shrugging at the prisoner I chuckle darkly.

"Yeah, I'll have some fun with you later. Bye~ Sakumoto-chan!" I stand up and follow Ibiki to a different room. When he turns around I'm bowing on the floor.

…

"PLEASE TEACH ME YOUR WAYS IBIKI-SENPAI!" Ibiki most definitely wasn't expecting the child to do that. Silent, that is how anyone would describe the room for over ten minutes.

…

I grin under my mask, knowing the mind game- patience is something I don't have unless I care about it. So I wait. And wait… And wait. My grin fades, replaced by a bored face. I could do this forever, it's actually a really comfortable position to be in. I'm half asleep by the time he replies.

"Stand up, kid." I bolt upright, a foot in front of him in less than a second. Ibiki sweatdrops at that, "Uh, what do you want?"

"Please teach me your information gathering skills, Ibiki-senpai." I respond, tilting my head at him. He stares at me for a solid minute.

"... Are you asking for an appre-"

"No, but it would basically be the same thing, just I won't join T&I after the apprenticeship. Or the ninja corps at all, really. I'm going to be like Jiraiya the Sannin!" I exclaim proudly, only proud about the perverseness of Jiraiya and not the actual spymaster part. I wanna be just as perverted if not more than him.

Unknowing to me, stars appear in my eyes visible to Ibiki. "I don't think you want to be too like him," Ibiki mutters, looking me over, "Find any information you can get about… Gai Maito… And bring it to me in twelve hours-"

"Maito Gai-chan, taijutsu master, wears an all green jumpsuit and people call him really eccentric."

"He became a taijutsu master after a lot of hard work and determination gotten from his dad- who died saving him, I believe."

"Gai-chan became eternal rivals with Hatake Kakashi-chan after Hatake-chan beat up chunin bullies for him after they were done beating him up."

"He comes up with random challenges that they both do and keeps score. I believe he is three points behind Hatake-chan at the moment."

"He lives in the Jounin Apartments a few apartments away from Hatake Kakashi-chan and neighbors to Sarutobi Asuma-chan and Morino Ibiki-senpai, lives across from Mitarashi Anko-chan, and has a special type of crazy that he calls 'youth'." I immediately reply, not missing a beat when he immediately asks for another Jounin.

"I do not know immediately, but I believe if you gave me three hours I could find some information on Shiranui Genma-chan." I don't move as he looks at me, before he chuckles.

"Yes, I'll 'teach you my ways'. Meet me here every Wednesday. I'll teach you then." I nod, shunshining away.

For the next few years, I train as much as I can, learning from Kakashi and Ibiki on Monday and Wednesday and teaching Toshi's class every Friday. Every day I'm not with one of the three mentioned I'm gathering information on everyone and thing in Konoha, from the Inuzuka's dogs to the Hokage, from the Aburame's bugs to the Hyuuga.

Besides genin and below, when I turn ten I have information on every ninja from Konoha, anbu and nuke-nin included. All stored in my fuin-storage. I also published my first book, called Aisuru Kokoro, or love of the heart.

The reason I'm only summarising up until I'm ten? I gave myself a freaking sharingan. Somehow. I was just talking to Kashi-baka...

I frown at Kakashi- or, more specifically, his sharingan when he poofs into the clearing.

"Kakashi, can I run some theory by you?" Kakashi doesn't glance up from his book when he nods.

"Say a non-Uchiha had extremely good chakra control, and extremely good chakra sensing…" I pause when he puts his book away, giving me his full attention.

"And senses the exact amount and path that the chakra went to the eyes when the sharingan…" I can sense Kakashi's about to speak and quickly hurry what I'm going to say.

"In theory… Would that non-Uchiha be able to in theory uh, 'activate', the sharingan? Or if that person saw a Hyuuga using the byakugan… Would they be able to replicate-or activate that?" It's silent in the clearing for a few moments, birds flapping overhead, sun shining brilliantly and grass the perfect shade of green.

"... I don't know. In theory, yes, but…" I nod, pointing at my left eye. Getting the idea, he lifts his hitai-ate and glares at me with both eyes.

"It wasn't my idea, remember that." I nod, having my chakra entwine with his and brush against the chakra paths in his sharingan eye. He shivers at the chakra's intimate grasp, frowning at me.

"You don't have any sensing skills. I'm only letting you do this once, it feels… weird." I nod, concentrating. My concentration breaks when Kakashi speaks again.

"Your eyes are glowing blue- ah." Kakashi freezes, my chakra slowly seeping through his chakra system.

"And you broke my concentration, baka! If you don't want my chakra molesting you then don't break my concentration!" I grumble, putting my hands in a hand seal to gain control of my chakra in his system.

By the time I get my chakra under control Kakashi is blushing more than a schoolgirl confessing to her lifetime crush and glaring at me with less heat than a lost kitten yawning. Then again, it's not really his fault he makes questionable noises when in pain. 'It so is.'

"Kashi-baka. So what if my eyes glow blue, cool- wait what?" I go back to concentrating when all Kakashi does is glare at me. Sighing, my chakra leaves Kakashi and dissipates. I close my eyes, retracing the exact chakra paths and moving my chakra around.

'Kit, you're in here with me.' My eyes open and I pout up at Kurama, ignoring the snowflakes slowly falling down.

"Well then, BFF, what the fuck went wrong?" I pout up at the demon-fox-best-friend. He snorts in mirth, rolling his eyes at me.

'You have a kekkei genkai- your eyes glowed blue when you deactivated the sharingan- also, why can't you do the byakugan instead? Those idiotic red-eyed bastards got me trapped in this shitty cage.' I blink up at Kurama, smiling kindly (read as: maliciously).

"...Shitty? Kurama, I'm your fucking cage you basket-case of a friend!" I roar at him, flailing my limbs as I pout up at him, activating puppy-eyes no jutsu. Kurama doesn't reply for a while, shocked at being called a basket-case.

'Extremely shitty. So shitty that it calls me a basket-case, without even being a British person in their last life!' I roll my eyes at Kurama.

"Whatever, basket-case. So what am I supposed to do to recreate the sharingan? I promise to only use it to protect your siblings and you." I say, only to mutter under my breath, "Selfish bastardous basket-case of a vulpix evolution into a fucking bitch ass mother fucking dog-breathed narnia-hating mud-pit."

'... I heard that. Did you just call me a mud-pit and a pokemon? Insolent hum-'

"I told you I'm a banana alien~!" I whine, interrupting Kurama. He growls at me.

'I'm not calling a delusional human a- I'm not even going to say that.' I frown at Kurama.

"Fine then, at least call me an insane human." Kurama rolls his eyes at me again.

'Fine fine, I'll let you get the sharingan- insolent delusional crazy ass-' He snarls, continuing for a while.

Eventually, after who knows how long, I open my eyes, having near-perfectly replicated the chakra path before I visited Kurama. Kakashi's eyes widen, and I raise an eyebrow at him.

"So…? Did it work?" He shakily nods, before shaking his head again.

"Kind-of. Your eye's are glowing purple with the sharingan's tomoe. Three sharingan tomoe. With glowing purple eyes." I blink, frowning.

'Kit, I already told you your kekkei genkai would interfere.'

'It's not a kekkei genkai! I don't know what it is.' I stop the chakra flow, and my vision slowly fades back to normal.

"Cool. It's like my chakra remembers the pathways it once took. I can activate an- oof!" I double over the fist in my stomach, more confused than injured when I collapse on the floor trying to catch my breath. Why the hell did Kakashi punch me!?

When I stand up I'm once again knocked down, a dark look in Kakashi's eye. I roll my eyes and get back up, dodging his fist and deciding to spar him- not like I have much of a choice.

Maybe I should ask Hina if I could spar him full-out and paralyse -no, that'd be betraying his trust… I'll ask him if he wants to be my friend and then do that if he says no… I'd be fucked if he says yes. Hmm. Getting the byakugan would have to wait.

'Pay attention you total airhead!' I blink, just barely dodging Kakashi's fist and unable to counterattack as I defend and dodge from his attacks. By the time Kakashi's anger fades to mere annoyance, I'm on the ground sporting many new bruises and a bloody face.

"You done?" I ask weakly, chakra and strength almost entirely depleted. Don't think me stupid- I tried running many times, but I don't really think a chunin-level hobo would be able to run from an anbu-level jounin that is said to be the fastest shinobi alive currently.

I get punched in the stomach again, and decide that enough is enough. Using the last of my chakra I could use without fainting, I weave together a rope of chakra strings and use them to restrain Kakashi.

"You need to work on your stamina, speed, agility, strength, and usage of chakra. You just wasted all of your remaining chakra trying to escape, and you use at least fifty percent of your chakra up just in the morning routine you do. What if you needed that chakra for something- like jutsu?" I throw Kakashi into a tree, the last of my usable chakra gone.

"Go fuck yourself, Kashi-baka. There were better ways to get rid of your anger than take it out on a fucking ten year old!" I frown.

I'm not even close to strong enough. I need to be the strongest, so that I can stop the fourth shinobi world war with not only my words, but with my strength as well. Strong enough that Madara looks like a genin compared to me. I need to train harder, and I don't think I can get stronger by staying here in Konoha. I'll train as hard as I can with Gai and Kakashi for the next year and then I need to travel around.

How else am I going to be able to better not only myself but my Kokoro series? Ibiki taught me all he knows, and Nigami no longer needs help with his students- I got paid all I need to start my journey anyways.

I look at Kakashi, determination in my eyes.

"Then I'll go to Gai, ask if I can train with him, and restrict my chakra so I can't use it while training with him. But you're the fastest, most agile person I know, and use only the needed chakra for every jutsu I've seen you do, so you're the best person to train me in that stuff. I'll be leaving Konoha in a year, so I can have better scenery to put in my new book that I'm writing." He nods, pulling himself out of the tree, leaving a Kakashi-shaped dent behind as he walks over to me.

"Kuro… Why do you train so desperately? You have time to get stronger-"

"No, I don't. You may not understand, Kakashi, but I need to be stronger than all the Kage's combined by the time I'm fifteen. I'm in a race against death and the only way to outrun him is to become as strong if not stronger than her. I need to be so strong that I'm classes as double S-rank, even if it doesn't exist just yet." I mutter, not caring if he hears what I said as I walk away to find Gai.

Another chapter's out! 'So soon from the last?' You may ask, well I'm trying to make up for the lost time, and also my writers block has selective appearances. I'd like to thank lizyeh2000, soul of the kitsune, PotatoMuncher, MawVax, DarkDust27, and all other reviewers for reviewing! Thank you so much, and have a great day!

DarkDust27: Oooh it would be awesome if she kept her gender secret from everyone (except Nigami because he already knows) and it was revealed she wasn't a boy waaay later.

Yeah, it would be awesome, wouldn't it? ^-^

soul of the kitsune: Oh? What did that do? I'm curious.

Hope this chapter answered that! :D Curiosity is always good *nods wisely, hand on chin*
