Last Time:

I jumped off of the second floor and looked at my opponent and flinched. She was dangerous, the aura around her was wild and lashing out on anything around her. Her red eyes were dead, devoid of most life. She was a killer, several years older than myself.

Meet Kagura the wind user.

My opponent.

Death's Wind

"Kagome Kaguya." she greeted, a cruel smirk on her ruby red lips. I stared at her, watching carefully as Hayate appeared beside us. "I know you...Kagome Kaguya..." she whispered. I looked at her warily and then a small metal fan appeared in her hands. "I've been waiting for you...Kagome Kaguya..."

"Okay, you know the rules." Hayate said with a cough. "Go."

I watched her. She did nothing but stand there and I let her. Her eyes darkened and then she pulled back her fan and then smiled almost charmingly at me.

"DANCE OF BLADES!!" Nearly invisible blades of wind came at me. The only reason I saw them was because the light reflected of the wind blades. I did several black flips and barely had the chance to dodge another round. I growled at her and released the second most lethal Kekkei Genkai I had.

As I was moving, doing black flips, I pushed a wave of black power into the ground. The air around us pulsed when the black energy swept across the floor. All talking and cheering seemed to cease as the ground began to shake. Kagura pulled out a white feather from her hair and I watched as it expanded. She was about to leap onto the feather but something grabbed her foot as it broke through the cemented ground.

It was a hand made of bone. Her red eyes widened and I watched as several (twenty or so hands) came from different areas of the floor. Slowly they hands came from the ground, pulling their bodies with them as they broke through the rock floor. I watched as the skelatal ninja stood, their eyes nothing but black abysses.

"Death Reaper Skeletal Jutsu..." I whispered. The skeletons eyes immediately glowed gold and then several of them cackled madly, their ragged clothing shaking on their frames. Their bone jaws were shaking with their laughter.

"Ah! Mistress!" yelled the skeleton that held her foot. He looked around and smiled. "Young master, Kimimaro!"

"Hello Tanaka." Kimi greeted with a wan smile.

"Who is this lovely young lady?" Tanaka asked as he stared at Kagura who's face was twisted into horror.

"Tanaka...that is my opponent for the preliminary Chunin exams. Kagura this is Tanaka Kaguya...Kagura...this is a small portion of the deceased Kaguya Clan." I told her. There was a gasp from somewhere up top and I watched as Tanaka's golden eyes glittered menacingly.

"Is she to die?" he asked. I shook my head. "Pity."

"Quick messin' wit her Tanaka!" yelled another skeleton. "We haven't had any action since that damn Jiraiya incident! Damn that pervert!"

"You sound like you're trying to get laid and not trying to get a fight Shinta!" laughed another skeleton causing others to laugh.

"Suck me!" Shinta yelled.

"You're all bone!" another skeleton cried. "There's nothing to suck!" a round of laughter went up and I shook my head at my vulgar clan.

"Okay men." I sighed. "Be serious...there is a serious fight going on. Take care of her but no killing her..."

"It will be done young Mistress!" they yelled together and then their mad laughter filled the room as they descended upon her. I watched as Shinta pulled out one of his ribs and played with it until it made a wonderful sword. He shook his head and then he smirked. He tossed it through the skeleton bodies until it his Kagura in the arm, piercing her through.

She clutched the bleeding shoulder with a shaky hand and then she screamed. I closed my eyes as her screams filled room. I blocked out the sounds until I heard a loud 'whoosh'. I opened them and she had managed to jump on her feather. She had sweat sliding down her face most likely due to fear.

"D-DANCE OF THE DRAGON!" she screamed. I noticed her body had several of my clans men's bones sticking out of her body and the white feather leaked blood. Three tornadoes appeared and scrapped up my clansmen. Their bones flew around.

"I can fly!" someone squealed and I had to smile. "Weee!" the tornadoes disappeared and bones were scattered across the floor.

"Has anyone seen my femur?"

"I'm missing my tibia!"

"I'm missing my, oh I don't know, my body!"

"That's alright guys. You did good." I told them, giggling slightly. "Disperse." Underneath all the bones, small holes appeared and the ground swallowed them up. Kagura sat on her feather, her body shaking. I looked up and smirked. "Did you like meeting my family?"

I closed my eyes and then let a smirk curve at my lips. What should I throw at her next? Fire? No...she controls wind. Spirits? Yes...that would be fun. I really did enjoy necromancy.

"DANCE OF-"

"Death Reaper Soul Jutsu..." I whispered as I threw my hand up and another pulse of black power pushed itself into the cieling. There were screams as spirits of different shapes but blue in color appeared. They were not human in form but disgusting creatures. They were wraiths of the worst kind with light blue hoods covering scabbing faces with razor sharp teeth jutting from their mouths. They had no legs, the cloak covered whatever they did have. They had arms that were wrinkly and almost looked burned.

They opened their mouths and the screams filled the room louder. Kagura looked around, horror re-etched on her face. There were ten in all as they flew around the room. I watched as they flew around her and as one flew towards she cried out. It flew through her and she clutched her head.

"We have been summoned..." an eerie voice whispered. It was old and ghostly. It was from one wraith but it sounded as though there were several voices. They were each of different gender and octave. "What is the occasion...?"

"Exams." I told them. Several wraiths chuckled which sounded like more then one voice.

"I remember exams...I killed all my opponents..."

"Take her out but no death if it can be avoided." I sighed. There were several chuckles and then...the sounds of swords being unsheathed sounded.

"DANCE OF BLADES!! DANCE OF BLADES!! DANCE OF BLADES!! DANCE OF BLADES!!" Kagura cried out as she attacked the wraiths. The attacks went through the corporeal bodies. They flew towards her quickly, their swords slicing through her flesh in different areas. She was screaming again. Maybe it as fear or pain, possibly a combination of both, but Kagura fell off of her feather and to the ground. Hayate came toward to check her pulse. He was surprised to see her turning blue and I narrowed my eyes.

"We need a meidic-nin!" he called out. I looked up at the wraiths.

"Where is her soul?" I asked softly. One of the wraiths chuckled innocently. "Give it."

"I'm hungry!" he cried.

"Go and find some dead souls and eat them...you're dismissed after you give me the soul..." the wraith sighed and he released the glowing white soul. It came towards Kagura and it went into her chest. The medic-nin backed away and color filled her cheeks once more.

"The winner is Kagome Kaguya!" Hayate coughed. There was no sound as I turned on my heel and made my way towards the stairs. I watched Naruto look at me, his eyes almost scared. He back away as I passed by him. I walked towards Kimi-kun and he brought me in for hug.

"You did good." he whispered. I nodded my head aginst his chest and then I turned pulled away.

"I'm leaving to visit Sasuke." he nodded his head and I leapt off the second floor and appeared in front of a medic-nin. He jumped, his face pale. "Take me to Sasuke Uchiha's room." I demanded. The medic nodded his head and then took me to where Sasuke was. He was lying in bed, sleeping soundly. I sighed and then sat beside his bed. "I'm a monster, Sasuke." I whispered.

"As part of your mother's kekkai genkai...you can do necromancy." my father said to me softly, his eyes glaring at me menacingly.

"I don't want to summon the ghosts...they scare me..." I whispered. I was five and a half at the time.

"You will or so help me..." he growled as he pulled back his hand and slapped me across the face.

(A/N: My line dividers aren't working so if they don't show any thing that is italisized is a memory. If it's no then it's right now.)

I burried my head in my arms and tightly shut my eyes.

"But t-they scare me!"

"Dammit! Summon them!" he snarled. I shook my head and he slapped me again. I fell to the ground and he kicked me repeatedly. "Do it!"

"I can't daddy. I can't do it." I whispered as I clenched my hands.

"Do it!" he roared and a wraith appeared. He stopped kicking my side. I slowly reconstructed my bone so that it was no longer broken. My side was still bruised. "Good..." he leaned down, a smile on his face as he touched my cheek and pushed me against the wall. "Good girl...now be very quiet for Daddy..." he pulled down his pants then.

I flinched when something touched my cheek. I looked into Sasuke's black eyes as he stared at me. His hand was on my cheek. He pulled his hand back and he stared at it. On the edge of one of his fingers was a tear. I touched my cheek and realized I was crying and I shook my head.

When had that happened?

"This is the second time I've seen you cry..." Sasuke said as he looked at me. His eyes were pained and he stared at me an unreadable expression on his face. "What made you cry?"

"Things." I said as I sat up.

"Explain." he said sternly.

"Sasuke-"

"Do it." he snapped. I nodded to him slowly and he then lifted his blanket. I stood an slipped in beside him. He pulled me close and took in his scent. Sasuke was home for me.

"I was thinking of my father just now."

"Why that bastard?" he snarled.

"He made me a monster." I whispered.

"You're not a monster..." he trailed.

"You didn't see my fight." I whispered.

"What happened?" I told him the events that transpired between myself and Kagura and he took in everything. I finally told him of Naruto's face. I felt his muscles tense beneath his clothes and I feared the worst. What if he was disgusted by me? "Oh...Kagome..." he whispered. "It's okay, Kagome. You're not a monster just strong and people fear strength." I nodded into his neck, happy he didn't reject me.

I fell asleep against him and I didn't wake until later. Much later.

Kimimaro rushed into the room followed by Sesshoumaru as they heard the glass break in Sasuke's room. They were headed up to get Kagome but they hurried when they heard the glass breaking. Kagome jerked awake followed soon by Sasuke. They stared at Kakashi and hen Kimimaro and Sesshoumaru.

"What happened?" Sasuke demanded. Kakashi was about to answer but Kimimaro interrupted him and looked at Kagome.

"That doesn't matter right now." he said quickly. "Kagome. We have to leave Konohagakure and we have to leave now."

"Why?" she asked softly. "What happened?"

"The Hokage just said that the Mizukage is recalling all Shinobi back to village regardless of where they are at." he said quickly. Kagome shook her head but one look from Kimimaro had her moving from the bed.

"We'll be back, right?" she asked softly.

"I don't know." he said honestly. She nodded her head and turned to Sasuke. His eyes were pained for a moment before he closed them. He opened them and he sent Kagome a small smile.

"I'll be back." she said softly. "I promise." she leaned over and gave him a kiss. She swiped her tongue across his bottom lip and then intertwined a hand through his hair. The adults left quickly as Kagome pushed him against the bed post and deepened the kiss. She pulled away and with tears in her eyes smiled sadly. "I promise." she disappeared from the room and Sasuke sighed.

"I'll miss you." he stated softly, uncaring to the fact she was gone. Kakashi walked back inside and sat at the edge if his bed.

"We're going to train."

"I know."

"Good."

"Hello...Kimimaro, Inuyasha, Bankotsu, and Kagome." the Mizukage greeted, a smile on his young face. His eyes swept over the group and he sent them a reassuring smile.

"Good morning, Mizukage-sama." they greeted.

"Come now...we know each other well enough for you to greet me by my real name." Kagome smiled and jumped into the man's arms.

"Touga!" she squealed as she jumped into Touga Inutaisho's arms. Inuyasha smiled lightly as he went to hug his Father. Bankotsu watched his team mates until Touga gestured him over with his head. He sighed but made his way over to hug Touga. Though leader of the Inutaisho clan, he was also the Mizukage.

"It's wonderful to see you again. I am truly sorry to call you away from Konohagakura but we are having problems right now." he sighed.

"What's wrong, Touga?" Kimimaro asked.

"We have been threatened several times by Orochimaru." he sighed, setting Kagome down on his desk, pulling off the kasa that was on his head. Silver hair spilled onto his shoulders and golden eyes shown brightly. Jagged blue stripes on his cheeks completed his exotic look. "Thankfully the Hokage has accepted our alliance and if we get in trouble he will come to our aide."

"Why have we been called back Dad?" Inuyasha asked.

"Because if Orochimaru attacks, the attack will not be small by any means. It will be a rough battle and I fear the worst. I am going to station each of you in this village until further notice."

"Yes, sir." they each stated. He nodded his head.

"You're dismissed." each disappeared except for Kagome. She looked at Touga and smiled softly at him. "What is it?" he asked.

"Touga?" she said tentatively. "After this Orochimaru thing...could you spare a ninja for undetermined amount of time?"

"What do you mean?" he asked, taking a seat.

"I would like to be stationed and join Konoha." Kagome stated strongly. Touga smiled at her, fangs showing.

"Give me a valid reason."

"It would show that Kiri is ready for the alliance." she stated unfaltering.

"That and you have found someone, correct?" he teased. Kagome nodded her head slowly. "Who is he?"

"His name is Sasuke Uchiha." she stated softly.

"The only survivor other than Itachi Uchiha that survived the Uchiha clan murder?" he asked. Kagome nodded her head quickly. "Is this what you want?" he asked softly.

"Yes." Kagome whispered. "I do."

"What of your team?"

"Have Sango take my place." Kagome stated. "She just graduated from the academy but she is has power and potential. She isn't a prodigy but she could be very strong with some training from Kimi."

"After this Orochimaru threat goes down then you may go." he nodded his head. Kagome squealed and threw her arms around his neck.

"Thank you...Papa. Thank you."

"You're welcome." he stated as his eyes softened. "You're very welcome."

We were running through the forest outside of Konoha...Orochimaru wasn't after Kiri like we had thought. Apparently he had heard of the alliance between the villages and threw us off by saying he was going to attack Kiri when in reality he was attacking Konoha. A ninja came to us from Konoha saying that they needed help.

Kiri answered their call and we were now headed their way. I giggled. After a month away from Sasuke...I was finally going to see him again. I couldn't wait. Right now we had Sango Tetsumo with us so she could join my team on the way back. They didn't know I was staying here yet. They thought Sango was extra back up.

She was a pretty brunette with beautiul soft brown eyes. She was slightly muscular and was tanned. She was every girl's envy and every boys wet dream. For a twelve year old she was a little more developed then most girls our age. It didn't help that she wore a skin tight uniform. It was black in color and leather from what I could tell.

I never actually liked the girl but she was alright. She was slightly violent but most girls were. I pushed faster as I saw the gates of Konoha...one of the walls had fallen. I cursed and we picked up speed. Any Oto-nin we came across were disposed of immediately. We ran through the gate and through the streets.

"Is that Gamabunta?" Kimi asked softly.

"Jiraiya's here!" I squealed.

"Find anyone that needs help!" Kimi yelled shaking his head. Though I wanted to find Sasuke...there were people here that needed our help and needed it now. I ran towards Gamabunta where I knew Jiraiya would be. Sure enough, he was standing on top of the Great Toad Boss.

"Hey! Jiraiya!" I yelled. The white haired Sannin looked at me and smiled.

"If ain't Kagome!" he greeted. "You developed! Your breasts are bigger!"

I growled and promised to hit him several times in the head when we finished.

Damn that sage.
