Hey, everyone, I'm back with a new chapter with Musical Kunoichi. With Prehistoric Magic at a good distance I want to work on the other stories; if you're going to ask if I'm going to add the song lyrics to the story that is a maybe I'll do it every once and a while depending on the character and the scene, so besides the whole I don't own anything let's begin.

Returning to base the two vets plus the new member were in the lobby. "I don't know how I'm going to keep up with all of this plus the homework," Hibiki cried patting her on the head Hinoka told her, "Don't worry as long as you'll be able to balance it out it'll be ok. "Hinoka Tsubasa good work out there," Jiraiya said as he and Genjuro entered the room.

"So Hibiki are you sure you want to do this?" the uncle of Hinoka questioned.

"Yes I want to do this I don't want to stand on the sidelines when there are those who are risking their lives to protect the people," the orange haired girl told him with fire in her eyes.

"Good during the week we'll start with light workouts then move to the more harder ones," the redhead told her. "Where will these take place?" Hibiki asked.

"At my house," Genjuro told her, "And you'll also have Hinoka and Tsubasa will also be training with you," he added. "Yeah so if you need help just ask us," the blue haired girl told her.

"Thank you," Hibiki said, "I know I won't be able to replace Kanade but I'm going to try my hardest."

"We're not expecting you too," Hinoka told her, "You just be who you are and like you said try your hardest."

After that Hibiki started her training to not only defend herself but also protect all those around her. "This is the beginning of the Uzumaki fighting style," Genjuro told Hibiki as he got into a stance. "Wait are you sure It's fine for me to practice this?" Hibiki asked, "Because aren't the heads of the family really strict on who learns the family style." Chuckling Genjuro told her, "While I am the oldest in the Uzumaki family Hinoka's the head and she approved."

"Really you're the head," the orange haired girl asked as the redhead entered the backyard. "Yeah, uncle Genjuro is what you would call an advisor. Telling me what he thinks while I have the final say," she told her, "And if you really want to do this I might as well let uncle teach you the fighting style," Hinoka said. Smiling Hibiki went back to work. Smiling at the orange haired girl the red head returned to base and entered one of the training room.

"Summoning Jutsu," Hinoka said while going through the hand motions before slamming her right hand on the ground. "Time to train I take it?" Kana questioned seeing as she was out of the seal. "Yes it's time to increase her training," Jiraiya announced walking into the room. "What am I going to learn this time?" she asked taking off her top not even bothered with the old pervert in the room.

"I think it's time for us to find out what your element is," the white-haired sage commented holding up a piece of paper. "This is called Chakra Paper surging your chakra into the paper we'll be able to figure out what type of chakra element you are," he explained surging his chakra to the paper letting burn then turn to dust. "What you saw was fire, burning, and earth, turning to dust. The others are lightning, crinkles, water, soggy, and wind, cuts the paper in half," Kana told her.

Nodding Hinoka placed some of her chakra into the paper and they were all surprised to see that it was sliced into four pieces as each piece turned to dust, got wet, crinkled, and burn. But what was further surprised them was when one started to sprout wood branches, let out steam, attracted some stray pieces of metal, and turned to crystal; however, what they all saw was all of them was that every one of the pieces glowed a dull dark and light glow.

"Not surprising," Kana said, "Each Jinchūriki has the number of elemental chakra according to the number of tails the beast has." Looking around the room Hinoka said, "There isn't that much room for the shadow clone training though," the shadow clone training, thanks to the jutsu's ability to transfer knowledge to the user, lets the red head summon an army of clones to let them work on whatever the girl needed to while she trained in the physical aspect of it. "For now we'll work on the strongest element you have," the toad sage informed her, "Summon five clones and I'll instruct them on how to channel the element to quicken the pace while you train in the Kitsune fighting style with Kana."

Nodding the young head of the Uzumaki clan summoned five clones while she herself went with the female demon. "Alright, the Kitsune style revolves around weaving around the enemy while also getting in a few punches and kick," Kana instructed going into a stance; following along Hinoka was getting the hang of the style quickly. As Kana quickened the pace the red head was able to keep up, "Good job kitten," the fox demon told the young female.

"That was impressive," Jiraiya informed walking up to the pair, "Hinoka I need you to dispel the clones ever minute," he told the girl. Nodding she made a clone then dispel said clone then after waiting a few seconds got a steady flow of info flowing into her brain. "Wow that much done in that amount of time period," she said after blinking a few times.

"Yeah like you the clones are surprisingly persistent."

"That and I have a good teacher that I don't want to disappoint," she added frowning at Kakashi's so-called teaching.

"Well lead back home to rest," the told sage told her. Nodding, after Kana returned to the seal, Hinoka returned to the apartment, "Hey how are you both?" she asked seeing Miku and Hibiki. "We're fine but where have you been it's almost ten?" the black haired girl questioned.

"Training with the old pervert took longer than normal," she told her. Taking off her clothes down to her underwear she entered the bathroom to get rid of the sweat and grime from training. "So are we watching the meteor shower together right Hibiki-chan?" Miku asked the orange haired girl, "Of course we are," she answered as Hinoka got out of the shower.

But as the group settled down to work Hinoka's phone went off, "Seriously we just left," the red-haired female whined as Hibiki sent an apologizing look to Miku, "Go it must be important if they need you at this time," she waved. Returning to the academy the pair saw that Tsubasa and the others were already there, "Sorry we're late," Hibiki said as they entered, "No you two weren't that late," the blue haired female waved. Turning to her mother figure Hinoka asked, "Is this about why there's been an increase in Noise activity?" catching Hibiki's attention, "What do you mean Hinoka?" turning to the orange haired female Ryoko explained, "Normally Noise activity is rare but in the past month the activity has been increasing around the school meaning that someone is controlling them or they have a mind of their own."

"A mind of their own?" Hibiki asked, "Is that possible?" Tsubasa shrugged, "Who knows but what they are after is Durandal," confused the orange haired female couldn't help but ask, "What is Durandal?" Shinji answered, "It is an incomplete relic that we've researched under the supervision of the Japanese government right below us." Jiraiya added his own input, "And considering what we do the USA is demanding that we hand over Durandal. Not to mention the fact that we've had another cyber attack over the last few months," remembering something Hinoka turned to her mentor, "Did you already report to baa-chan yet?" he nodded, "Yeah I have and don't worry I haven't told her about all of this only your training."

"Common Hibiki it's getting late so let's return to the dorm," Hinoka called out causing the girl to run after her. The next morning at the academy Hinoka was in her Stats class, "Whoever created math I swear to Kami herself that I'll find a way to bring that person back before killing that person myself," Hinoka thought then mentally pouted when she heard Kana giggle, "Please stop giggling," the human female begged. Thankfully much to Hinoka's relief and Kana's amusement the bell rang as the sun started to set her phone rang just as the female ninja was about to eat, "I'll be there," she said without even asking who it was, "No rest for the weary," Hinoka sighed heading to HQ.

"Hinoka we need you in the train station the Noise are appearing in the underground station," Shinji informed the female ninja, "Tsubasa is on her way and Hibiki is already fighting," he added. "Time to suit up Seilien Seli̱nófo̱to no Tron," Hinoka sang as she suited up, "Lightning Style: Lightning Slash," Hinoka cried out charging lightning chakra through the blade then swung it releasing all of the energy, "Wind Style: Gale Palm," thrusting her hand out she released a stream of air pushing the Noise back enough for her to blast them with rifle. Jumping onto the train tracks Hinoka found the Noise she was looking for but as soon as she appeared the titan ran off, "Come back here," she yelled switching the naginata into rifle form and fired a few shots but was blocked when the Noise released some of the orbs that were acting as hair to take the hits as it used some more to escape through the roof where Hinoka followed to see Hibiki and Tsubasa.

But they weren't alone for when the clouds passed the moon its light revealed a female in white armor as the chest revealed a bit of her under chest and the shoulders, in a diamond pattern, were covered in spikes and a mask to hide her face, "That's the Nehushtan Armor?!" Tsubasa said as Hinoka remembered it as well and in HQ they were all shocked as well. "How!? That most after the event of Kanade death," Genjuro yelled, "Seal up area as tight as you can," he ordered to Ryoko.

"Oh you know what this is?" she asked, "How can we not forget," Hinoka growled, "It was on that day we lost someone dear to us," she added as she and Tsubasa stormed in. ducking under the whip Hinoka fired a few shots then switched to blade form and rushed in switching with Tsubasa, "Damn she's not teasing is she this is her full strength," Hinoka grunted as she was in a stalemate with the unknown fighter but jumped back as the opponent released more Noise.

"I'll handle them you just focus on fighting her," the blue haired female yelled, "Fire Style: Fire Ball jutsu," the female ninja whispered launching a fireball making the one wearing the armor jump back was surprised when earth rose and trapped her, "I won't let you stop me," she growled but stopped when she saw Hinoka go into a stance, "Your not serious are you? Are you going to sing your swan song?" she asked, "With these last words I'll be able to see Kanade once more," she said raising her sword and started to sing as she slowly walked forward and when they were face to face an explosion occurred morphing into a fox head then with a roar returned to Hinoka then basted the opponent; however, she still lived.

"Hinoka," Hibiki and Tsubasa yelled out in worry and gasp when they saw blood pouring out of her mouth, "Sorry I failed," were her last world before she fainted.

"Ok, where am I?" Hinoka asked herself as she wondered the area where she came face to face with Kanade, "Kanade," she gasp as she ran to hug her only to pass through. Sighing the girl went back to wondering when she started to see her past memories, and as most of it were ones that she would rather forget there were others that made her smile but it was when she passed a certain memory that made her stop, "Do you have someone worth fighting for?" she heard making her turn to see a figure with long black hair and the surrounding area of a forest, "When a person has something important they want to protect," the memory continued, "That is when they can truly become strong." Stepping back the memory made her think, "Something to protect?" Hinoka muttered as faces of everyone she's met on her training trip and a few in the village appeared, "Yes I do have something to protect," she said clenching her fist.

"Then it's time to wake up," Kanade voiced making Hinoka turn to her, "Get on out of here and tell Tsubasa I said hi along with that new girl," she grinned as the area turned white and the next thing Hinoka could hear and see was Kana shaking her. "Kana I'm fine," she said causing said demon back off, "Hinoka thank kami you're alright but what the hell were you thinking," she yelled the last part, "Sorry for making you worry but as you can tell I'm better than ever," Hinoka said getting up. "Well it's nice to see you smiling a real smile and for your info it's been about half a month and now it's time for you to wake up," Kana smiled and in a flash of light as Hinoka opened her eyes in the real world, "Sempai she's awake," a nurse called out, "Quick check her vitals," the doctor ordered.

Once they were done checking everything she was allowed to have visitors, "Oh my precious daughter you don't know how scared your mother was when I saw you like you were," Ryoko yelled hugging her. "Ryouko back off," her uncle said coming to her rescue followed by her godfather/mentor, "Man I was scared when I saw you like that," the pervert said also hugging her just not with the same strength as Ryouko. "Yeah sorry about that but I had some time to myself and now I feel better than ever," Hinoka cheered getting smiles from the three adults, "Well get some rest and we'll see you later," Genjuro told her as they all left.

Closing her eyes Hinoka appeared back in her mindscape, "While I'm asleep I might as well get some training in," she told the female demon receiving a nod; moreover, as the demon taught the female human Kana also showed Hinoka a few new jutsus, a few for each element, as well. And returning to the base, Hinoka was surprised to see the reception party, "It's so great to see you alright," Hibiki said hugging her, "Don't you ever scare me like that again do you hear me," Tsubasa said also hugging her, "So has anything happened when I was out?" the kunoichi questioned, "I went on my first big mission," Hibiki answered, "That went bad when we ran into that girl with the Nehushtan Armor," she said as an afterthought, "Yeah there's that but you were able to wield Durandal," Tsubasa added.

And I'm going to stop right here I'm sorry that I haven't been able to update in a while but with school and everything I could only make one or two stories a day but with spring break I can be able to work on his as much as I can that is until I have a new fanfic stuck in my head so see you all later
