“Hi…” You find yourself saying - to yourself. Again. Only you were back looking like the normal teal skin and pointy ears you had before Fu’s cosmetic change. You spoke to your Ninja - the body you now slept in - but he was waving right back at you. Mirroring your movements the two of you did a little act of copying one another before both of you break into laughter.

“So you're me, huh.” The Chuunin tilted his head. “Huh...why am I blue?”

“Why are you colored like a peach?” You ask back. “I’m from a world called Hera...we’re all this color. You look like an Earthling to me. Except the chakra stuff. That’s different from the ki I use - but similar. The natural energy Senjutsu you use is familiar…” You think of Juugo and how is entire body seemed soaked with every cell in that power…

“Another world huh? Interesting…You know I always suspected it was aliens but everyone just called a ‘conspiracy seeker’. I can’t help that there just happens to be one everywhere I go…” Crossing his arms the ninja you seemed to hold a chip on his shoulder for something that had to do with conspiracies. Well - from what you’ve seen so far, maybe he was right. “Man. Your strong. Are all people as strong where your from?”

“Kind’ve - but the gravity is greater than it is here. But then again my people can’t do those ‘jutsus’ you all do.” You look around the room you two were in. It was Ninja Gyro’s home one half and your own home at the Lookout on the other.

“This place is different. I’ve seen people just as young forced to fight - but never trained in academies like this. It’s...concerning.” You frown, wondering if you can keep Hera from the need to train child soldiers. It still had a military and soldiers but conflict wasn’t like this. Worlds had different cultures and they seemed to glorify this status. “I have so many questions about this world…”

“Well. Ask away we’ve got time. If not we can wake up. I’m sure you’ve got more stuff you need to do for this training.”

>A. “Wanna give me the low-down on chakra?”
>B. “So...how do hand symbols translate to these ninja arts?”
>C. “Summoning - that seems a lot like my cards. How does that work?
>D. “Got a special someone Ninja me? What about family?”
>E. Write-In Questions?
>F. “Nah, I’m good. Let’s wake up. I’d rather not be unconscious around Orochimaru…”

“The hand symbols.” You try to perform them but jumble your hands together. “How do those work with the ninja arts?” You ask, tilting your head.

“They allow us to mold and chakra to create jutsus. Barring taijutsu, mostly all jutsus use hand symbols.” Ninja Venture answered and you quickly saw why he was a student teacher. He knew the basics and went on to show each hand symbol and telling you the corresponding animals. “Monkey, Dragon, Rat, Bird, Snake, Ox, Dog, Horse, Tiger, Boar, Ram, Hare. Each animal related with a different element or jutsu type.” He even informed you of other unknown hand symbols or rarer ones to specific clans or even individuals. You look at your own hands and wonder just how many ways you could move your hands around. “There are also jutsus that do not require hand symbols - or if you are proficient enough you won’t need them.”

“Huh...That’s a lot like spell casting…” You remark, wondering just how this system work.

“I suppose...but wizardry and magic are something different but I have no real knowledge on that.” Frowned the Shinobi Gyro.

“What about summoning. That uses hand symbols and a blood sacrifice to use. It’s a bit like my cards as it also takes energy.” You say, remembering both badgers; Hatchimitsu and the Badger Knight provide you with assistance.

“Summoning is a high level space-time jutsu. You can summon objects, animals, people or even spirits with it. My father’s family always had the Badger Clan as allies. They came from a war torn land - not even knowing what chakra was until my ancestors taught them. Since then we’ve helped each other out. They all live in the Tanuki Forest, it’s a legendary place and one of the sage regions that is only known to have been lucky enough to train there.” He smiled and leaned back on the half of the bed he was laying on. “The amount of power you put into the summon generally gives you a bigger summon. I’m surprised you summoned the Badger Knight. He’s renowned as their clan’s strongest champion. I’ve never summoned him before.…”

“I’m just lucky I guess…” You smile - but remembered you had to put a lot of your own power into that summoning. It had been a gamble but it was what you needed to take out Juugo without destroying the entire facility. “So. Can I summon anything I make a seal or contract with it?”

“In a sense - yes. Some things being easier then others.” Answered the ninja teacher.

“Hm…” You take a moment to ponder.

“Oh before I forget. You can always come in two types of animals at a time at least that's all I've ever seen done.” The other you said as you got up and began to inspect your side of the room. pulling out a book the namekian book of Legends he began to read through it and muse it the words inside. You got up and begin to look at the Scrolls on his side of the room. one even marked with the symbol that you saw a repeated around the ninja Gyro’s side.

“Tell me more about your Plasma Release Technique.” You ask, turning back to him.

“It is a marriage between my Father’s Fire Release and my Mother’s Lightning Release. Both were always good at their particular element.” He smiled, turning back and setting the book down. He went over to his half and held a picture of him and his family. “They taught me everything they know, but it wasn’t until recently I learned how to actually make it work. When I found out I could merge Fire and Lightning - they promoted me from Genin to Chuunin without even holding an exam.” Setting the picture down, he pointed to another book for you to read. One he had made and a journal of sorts marked with ‘Plasma’ Crest. “I’ve been exploring the technique for a good year now and so far the better I become with the two elements, the better they are combined. I believe other fire and lightning related releases that combine with other elements could tell me more. Konoha has many great clans but none like that. The Sannin may know something but..the other two would’ve been better mentors.” You flip through the notes, finding answers to any questions you had. The jutsus could get hot, really hot and you had to be careful not to damage yourself if you misjudged an attack.

“I see. Well I’m very interested in see what we can do together. I’m glad to help you out…” You hold up a fist - and the Ninja Gyro gives you an amused fist bump. “You..are going to keep your promise for the kids right? Our promise?”

“Of course. I didn’t take student teaching because it was a blow off job. The Academy is our future and helping those young minds at that age is vital. Besides...they do need a friend. Especially in these times.” Chuunin Gyro Venture crossed his arms, almost looking offended but then gave you a laugh and nodded. “...I made a promise to my first master, Shisui-sensei that I’d look after not only Sasuke but make sure his generation does not have to bear the strife, sacrifice or burden that ours did. Big or small.”

“That’s a tall order...you can’t help everyone.” You would know, after all being a Kami meant you had to prepare for that for more than just one generation.

“Yes, but I can help the ones I meet.” He smiled back at you, before looking down at an old class picture. “ I was witness Itachi do what he did that night. He made me watch him do his work, paralyzed by his Sharingan eyes but fully conscious he slaughtered everyone except Sasuke. Then forced me to relive it until the Lord Hokage found me crying in their blood.” He paused, taking a moment to inhale and he held up his hand. You pause but slowly reach up. “Thank you….thank you for giving me the strength to hit him.” He shook your hand...but you decided to pull him in for a hug. After an awkward moment of silence you pulled back with an empathetic smile.

“...I do not know what life you’ve led brother, but it seems you’ve done as much good as you can. I respect that and I’ll remember to be a bit more like you.”

“Heh...fool you are me. Just a bit...blue.” The two of you laugh and then...the room began to crumble away. “Looks like your waking up. Gyro. Just remember Gyro...whatever you do. Do not eat a pear. I do not want the taste of pear in my mouth - it is a fruit made of sand. It is drea-”,You woke up to find the Badger Knight still standing guard.

“Art thee humour bett'r sir?” Asked the badger.

“Yes...I do.” You sit up and he nodded.

“Doth thee require anym're of mine own s'rvices 'r may i returneth to mine own home?” He asked, and you pause…

>A. “Any chance you train members of my family?”
>B. “Could you escort me to Orochimaru? I still feel a bit tired…”
>C. “Anything happen while I was out?”
>D. “No, I release you from this summon.”

“Can you guide me to Orochimaru, please? I still feel weak.” You ask, and the noble badger helped you up, carrying you in his arms as if you were a doll. “Not quite what I meant, but sure. So - anything happen while I was out?” You ask, while you rounded a corner and began walking down a hallway.

“The mistress s'rpent hath tried to approach thee without permission.” He said, and you see a large fist made crater where you assumed she had been denied. “I gaveth h'r a warning but t wast not heed'd.”

“Well..thank you sir Knight.” You smile and the armored summon just nodded.

“It is an honor to serve the heir of the Venture Clan.” He then stopped and let you down and you both entered Orochimaru’s lab. You bow, and he returns it with a salute before you unsummon him. Heading inside you find Orochimaru in a lab suit working over a telescope. Looking up to you, the snake sannin smiled and raised her hands up to you.

“Ah...Gyro...I looked at a cell sample from you and seeing how it reacted with Juugo’s cells. It is premature but - I can see you perhaps being the best candidate for a new seal. One that will give you immeasurable power, beyond even what you’ve displayed now. If not - well I do have another offer…” She approached you, and you got very nervous...stepping back a step for everyone that she neared you with. “Oh - what’s this? Did I do something wrong?” She pulled off her labcoat, revealing that she wore only minimal kunoichi gear. Tying her hair up she looked at you with a curious gaze. “You’re blushing Gyro - I wonder...did you dream of me?”

>A. “No - this is going to sound narcissistic but I dreamt of myself.”
>B. “I dreamt of my girlfriend Vados, she’s my angel…”

'Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope.'

“I dreamt of my girlfriend Vados, she’s my angel. My darling angel." You say, skipping away from her before finally putting an entire counter between you and her. "So, let's move on..." You got the heebie jeebies just being around Orochimaru, much less seeing her in that way.

"Oh - well that's disappointing. She’s a lucky girl. You would make for an excellent -” She stops and then shakes her head as if dismissing a thought. “Well I suppose my first offer still stands. From Jugo I've devised a way for a Juinjutsu that lets me place a seal on a person made from his enzymes to unleash powerful reaction to sage chakra." She explained, and even gave you some of her notes. You look at some of it, getting just enough to follow along. "Now - normally this curse seal is so I can control anyone who becomes hostile like Jugo does. For you - I can apply it without that seal. You've proven to me you can handle powers of great magnitude. Whatever strength you have - temporary of permanent you will still benefit."

"..." You frown, and a chill runs down your spine. The other you already wanting you to say no.

>A. "No thank you, but I appreciate the offer." (Kind turn down.)
>B. "Why? So I can become a better host for you? Go to Hell." Instant transmission out. (Hostile turn down)
>C. "Before I accept or turn down. I want to see all the information, the tests and this 'juinjutsu' you've made."
>D. "Sure! Power me up!" (Take her up)
>E. "Sure, but use it on someone else you intend to use the seal on first." (Decide later)

"Before I accept or turn down. I want to see all the information, the tests and this 'juinjutsu' you've made." You respond and fold your arms. "Not negotiable."

"Of course you do...I'm aware of your credentials so you should be able to follow along. This is still all in the experimental phases but only because no suitable host has been found. Even Kimimaro whom was one of the first successful tests will not be able to fully explore it's power." Orochimaru motioned for you to follow her. "Many missing nin who desire power have come to me willing. Like Jugo I keep them behind bars to keep the world safe from them. Those who follow my words willingly, I give work and benefits in return."

"..." You keep silent, following behind her until you came to a much larger barred area, that felt more like a prison. About a dozen or so and many of them were S rank missing nin...oh boy.

"The only person here who has not been given a seal. The most prized member and perhaps...even rarer then Kimimaro Kaguya..." A young woman with black hair and black, tear streaked eyes.

"A member of the Yuki clan...the last Ice Release User...besides her adolescent child."

"...you will keep Haku safe, right?...you promised..." She clenched her hands...and frost began to develop, you noted you could see your breath too.

"Of course...I did not save you from that mob for your child and you to be harmed." She said, resting a hand on her shoulder. She got some ice on her hand but she ignored it. "I saved Haku and his mother here from a viscous group who simply hated her because of her family...even her own husband led the mob that attacked her. I spared none of them - as I did not know her husband had been one of the attackers..." She frowned and the mother simply looked down.

"...I want...to kill them all. So...no one will ever hurt my Haku again...." She looks up to you..frowning. "...Do..do you think I am evil for that? I lost any chance at peace...I never used my powers, never hurt anyone but - they wanted me dead for something I..." The cold in the room became more intense.

"Shhh...it's ok. Kabuto is baby sitting Haku now, it will be ok. Now then. Gyro-chan here wishes to see the mark I'm going to give you. Are you ready?" She asked, looking to her and then you. Inhaling the woman nodded.

>A. "Wait..you don't have to do this."
>B. "..Go ahead."
>C. "Explain the process to me first. What are you doing?"
>D. Write-In?

“It is her choice. Go ahead.” You say swallowing the lump in your throat. A wave of guilt washed over you but you were unsure if it was your guilt. Maybe it was Ninja Gyro feeling this way - or it was both holding this sense of remorse.

“Ah….” Orochimaru’s mouth opened and fangs formed. She lowered herself down to the woman. “I have to place this on a vital chara and artery spot...normally the neck would do...however there is a much better spot - “ Orochimaru looked back to you with a wide eyed gaze before her fangs pierced a spot on the woman’s femoral artery on her leg. In a spot - that you blushed at. A pulse of chakra from Orochimaru and what you sensed of Jugo’s power. The chakra seemed to heal the initial bite from bleeding out.

"Ha...ku..." Miss. Yuki tensed, let out a cry before - finally passing out in her seat. You move to catch her from falling while she showed you a mark. “This is the Cursed Seal of the Underworld. It’s counterpart the cursed seal of Earth is on Kimimaro, and I’ve placed Cursed Seal of Heaven on a mutual friend.” She gave you a head tilt. “Why do you look so flushed? You should be happy. Only 10% of shinobi I’ve applied this mark too have survived…”

“!” You check the woman’s pulse, making sure she was breathing and sensed out her power. She - was alive but you watched the power of the mark flush through her body. Jugo’s enzymes and senjutsu rushing through her blood and chakra systems.

“Of course this is not the final process. This is merely step one. After we see the effects of this seal, she will need to undergo a metamorphosis to allow her body to fully adapt to the power. A temporary state of death by the effects of Medicine that will advance her to the next stage…” Orochimaru slid over to one of the cells, “These cells have been designed for an easy way to transform the first level recipients of the mark…” Holding up a black vial, she looked around to all the S-Rank nin, before turning to you. “You are my guest, Gyro. Do you know these men and women? They are from all across the lands - every villages most wanted and some so bad that they aren’t even known by the public…” You carry Miss. Yuki in your arms and frown as you overlook the men. Orochimaru was acting like a cooking show host, prepping the first part with the Ice Release user, and these elites were shown to be what was pulled out of the oven. “Of course they may not survive - not everyone is as lucky as Lady Yuki and this process has even a slimmer chance of working.” Looking over the cells, you do see some of the worst of the worst - some you didn’t know but they looked just as bad. Each had their headband above their cells, representing the village they were from. You see they were even grouped by village. At Least Orochimaru had a system.

“I’ll give you time to look it over…” The snake sannin tried to take Yuki from you but you pulled her away on instinct. “Ah...protective like a Papa Wolf. You’ll make an excellent father for - Vados was it?” You ignore her, and silently look over the cells and then down to Yuki. The symbol on her inner thigh seemed familiar...but you didn’t know why.

“Has Kimimaro undergone this process yet?” You ask, and Orochimaru shook her head.

“Not quite yet...but soon he shall.”

Walking along the prisons built into the cavern walls, you stop at the Konoha section. Missing nins ranking from genin to s-rank all sat behind bars. You passed them, each one noticing you in a different manner. One tried to strangle you, another spat at you, the third cursed at you, and so on until you came to a white haired girl...who just smiled at you.

“Hello. What’s your name?” You ask.

“Kagura…” She responds. She had pale pink markings all over her body and you sensed something off about her.

“She’s a powerful genjutsu user. She knows a jutsu that turns allies against one another. She is also adept with chakra wires.” Orochimaru informed, walking behind you. “She was once Tsunade’s prodigy until...well they had a falling out.”

“Wait...you were a jounin. I remember an ANBU operative with white hair…” You frown, as you had never questioned what had exactly happened. ANBU’s were elites and often times their deaths were only reported to close family. The girl had a coldness in her eyes. She stared through you, not at you for one and it was chilling the way her voice barely reached any higher then a whisper.

“I remember you...little Gyro. You were only a boy when I left...you look well.” Kagura stood and tilted her head. “...does Lady Tsunade still live?” You nod her head and she gives you a small, chilling laugh. “Good…hehehehehehe...when I grow strong enough. I intend to make her regret not taking me on as her apprentice!” The pink haired kunoichi said, giving you a nod. Well...she certainly was determined enough. The rest of the leaf missing nin wanted to do nothing with you - so you moved onto the section which had many other headbands from the smaller villages...you look around and spot….

You walk down another wing of prison cells, avoiding the other five main Villages and instead going for the smaller and less well-known ones. You saw a lot of sad tired people many of them still angry but others who had just given up hope. They let hatred and anger consume them, overtake them, becoming their entire life. It was sad, and the Ninja who was inside of you felt an ocean of remorse for these people pour down over him. You passed anyone you knew would not survive the process. Sensing out their power told you all that you needed to know. You came to a stop at a cell that was not like the rest. You could not actually see within the prison and even Orochimaru stood several paces back.

“Ah...Gyro. You may wish to steer clear of that one. That is last known member of the Chinoike Clan with the eyes of Ketsurygan. Dojutsu just as rare the Byakugan and Sharingan, perhaps even more so.” Orochimaru informed. “He is able to control the blood in a person’s body - or rather the iron in the blood.”

“I see…” You tap the cage wall - and that’s when you understood. The mist inside the cage wasn’t darkness...it was a dense mist of blood. It was swirling around and you could see a figure inside. He looks at you - tilts his head and then all the mist - was pushed back and painted the walls of his cells red.

“Ah….hello?” The man licked his lips and stood up. “Well now…..your blood is very interesting…” You feel a cold chill run down your spin but you manage to ask,

“Oh? How so?” You cross your arms.

“...it’s flooded with power - so much...it’s fascinating.” The man’s words was a low whisper, but loud enough for you to hear. “Boy. My name is Izumo. Remember it.”

“...Gotcha.” You move on, but beyond Izumo you can’t find really anyone but Kagura and Izumo who looked to be good candidates. Orochimaru even seemed to fear Izumo...interesting.

"I'm going with Izumo." You point behind you, carrying Miss Yuki over to Orochimaru. "Go on. Give him the medicine." You nod, but the snake sannin hesitated. Frowning, until she finally let out a hiss at you before stretching out her arm and dropping off the medicine into Izumo's hand. He examined it, and then swallowed it. Then the prison's entrance slid shut with a giant seal on the front that began to glow with purple and black chakra.

"The process will place Izumo in a death like state, that he will stay in unless he achieves the next level of power. Otherwise he will die in that cell and it will be his grave." Orochimaru sighed, and shook her head. "Well...perhaps I can harvest his eyes."

"...If you don't use the mark's power, what happens?" You ask, as the pair of you waited.

"It's power will go dormant...I can kick start it of course, but otherwise it will simply stay inert." She explained, nodding to Yuki. "Miss. Yuki desires power...after never coveting it for her entire life. I made the Mark of the Underworld specifically for her...all the others have other marks, lesser ones. Except Kimimaro of course."

"....What mark do you intend for me?"

"Oh, Gyro...that is an interesting question because even I won't know until we're done." She looked at you slyly and you narrow your eyes at her but she placed a finger on her lips. "You'll seeeee. Mmhh. This could take some time...."

You try to sense out what was going on within the prison cell. However you cannot sense beyond the walls of stone and chakra. You created comfortable bedding to lay Yuki , keeping her in sight and away from Orochimaru. She murmured in her sleep, speaking of happier times before going back to her quiet breathing. It was better to let her dream of better days, they were perhaps all she had with the path she’s chosen. It wasn’t long - but the seal on the front of the cell lit up and the chakra turned blood red. The doorway crumbled and Izumo stepped out. He wore rags, had pale white skin and white hair, with violet eyes that looked at you in every detail.

“Orochimaru…” He stepped out and the prison cell crumbled in behind him. “Or should I say Lady Orochimaru.” He kissed the back of her hand before giving you all a bow. “Thank you for choosing me for this gift. I must admit I was worried - but…” Izumo looked to you, and pointed to you. “Leaf Ninja. You chose me. I am curious why...but in any matter - I owe you my freedom and this power. Tell me. Is there anything I can do for you?”

“If your eyes are on the level of the Sharingan, and Byakugan can you influence the genjutsus of others?” You ask. Izumo raised a white brow, but seemed amused by that question.

“My skills and eyes make me quite a capable Genjutsu user. Though I can just easily use my Ninjutsu to turn you into a walking bomb or drown you in a blood dragon…” Izumo answered, he folded his arms behind his back and gave you a curious look.

“Could you create a mental defense that could prevent the power of the Sharingan or other Genjutsu users from influencing my mind?” You asked, remembering the power Itachi had used on the Ninja Gyro - you needed a way to prevent that and this could be it.

“Mmmh. Perhaps, but why would a Leaf Ninja need fear a Uchiha?” The blood dragon eyed shinobi asked, tilting his head. You frown and turn away. Orochimaru moved, whispering into his ear while you tended to Miss. Yuki. “Oh. I see. All but one you say? Hm. Familiar - my own family killed itself as well. I only lived because they exiled me and I was held here for some time.” Izumo leaned over to you. “I can assist you. I can give you three options. The strongest one is a trap laid specifically for the first Uchiha you want to spring the trap on. You can send any genjutsu they use right back on them. One time use. The second option is an all around defense, not just the Uchiha’s eye but all genjutsu will be resisted against. This lasts much longer but will fade in time if used repeatedly. Lastly is the third option. We simply trade one eye with each other.” He said the final line with a smile and grin.

>A. “...What was that last part?”
>B. “Sharingan Trap is fine.”
>C. “All around genjutsu defense.”
>D. “...which eye do you wanna trade?”

“I’ll take the all around defense.” You answer, feeling it’d be the safest method and boosted by your own genjutsu skills it’d be the best way to keep Ninja Gyro safe. Of course inviting a blood ninja into your head wasn’t the brightest idea but - he at least seemed sincere. You didn’t sense killing intent - yet and Orochimaru’s seal would hopefully keep him from turning you into a blood bomb. “...Which eye were you thinking?” You ask curiously.

“MMmh. Well I favor my right eye - so perhaps a trade for our left?” He proposed.

“...Could work. But aren’t you worried about cutting your abilities down?” You ask and the man shook his head.

“I am confident enough in this new strength that it won’t matter. Besides - it would mean we’re connected you and I…” Izumo winked his left eye and you looked at the reflection of yourself. In that moment of eye contact, you could hear Izumo say the name of his eyes before everything went blurry…

You awake with a start, but find yourself in no immediate danger. You were back in the same bed that you slept on before. On a bed next to you, lays a still unconscious Yuki. She looked better, she had color in her skin and wasn’t having trouble breathing. Getting up, you look around but everything seemed quiet. Walking back where Orochimaru’s lab was, you open it to find - a silver haired young man and a black haired boy who resembled Yuki greatly. You - knew the young man - he was a genin. The adopted son of an expert medical ninjutsu user. Or atleast that was the lie you were told.

“Kabuto...right?” You ask, entering the room and the two look up at you.

“Oh...hello.” The boy you assumed to be Haku gave you a bow.

“Ah. Yes - Gyro. I knew you’d be here.” Kabuto adjusted his glasses in a manner that you felt was all too familiar. “Orochimaru reported you had a staggering increase in power - but even with your bloodline release - I’m very intrigued.”

“It’s temporary, don’t worry.” You assure, and Kabuto frowned but then turned back to the medical book that he and Haku were looking at.

“Well, Lord Orochimaru left with Mister Izumo. He wanted to put his skills to work. Said they could contact you when they needed too.” Assured Kabuto, you frown and touch your eye. It was still your own...but you wondered what the power of the blood dragon eye would do for you. “They will be back soon, until then you have full access to the premises. At your own caution of course.”

You observe the book they read. A textbook on advanced medical ninjutsu, Medical Academy level. One that Ninja Gyro had read just last year, and the boy Haku was leafing through it quicker then you did on a good day. He was reading aloud to Kabuto, who turned the pages for the young Yuki clansman. Once their done, Haku looks up to you and smiles.

"Did Orochimaru-sama save you as well, Mr. Gyro?" Haku asked, and you nod your head.

"Yeah. Kind've. Helped me out after a fight with some bad people..." You sit down at a nearby chair. "I've heard of the sannin, learned about them in school and even saw Master Jiraiya once when he came through town."

"The old frog..." Kabuto grunted.

"I've heard of Master Jiraiya and Lady Tsunade. I've read Kabuto-sensei's bingo book on all of them. You're in it too, Mr. Gyro." He pulled out a small note book, performed an unsealing process and a blank page was filled in it with detail, all about you. "Here, have a look." He hands you the book, and you thank him while grasping a hold of it. Reading it, you sense the other Gyro confirm everything on it was accurate, at least until 'Hera-seijin Gyro' or you arrived.

"Well. Am I missing anything? I'd like to add new information. Even if this boost is temporary - it shows your potential." Orochimaru's assistant asked.

"Mother and I are in it as well. They've been helping me understand my ice release..." Haku added.

"Only natives to the Land of Snow have been shown to use a type of ice release and they require prexisting snow, and the usage of the dog seal. Haku and his mother only need to use one hand seal and need no existing ice or snow for their techniques." Kabuto informed.

"...I wish to go to the Land of Snow one day with mother. Perhaps - we could teach each other..." Haku smiled, but looked to her fingers and twiddled them. "I-uh...think it would be nice...to find a place to belong."

"Yes - as accommodating as we are. This is no place for a child..." Kabuto frowned looking around at the lab, then upon you. "So. Your a student-teacher. I've been tutoring Haku here for a bit but...well. This is a crazy notion but do you think he'd fit in with the kids at Konoha's Academy?"


>A. "Oh most certainly. I know a few kids who'd find him very interesting."

“Oh, most certainly. I know several children who would get along with Haku.” You assure. Naruto, Kon and Shikamaru would no doubt find Haku fascinating. Sakura and Ino might finally have someone else to fight over about too.

“...would that have to know about my ability?” Haku asked, biting his lip.

“Only if you wish to reveal them. Kekkei Genkai and clan techniques are respected in Konoha.” You assure, but give an annoyed look to Kabuto when you hear him let out a mocking tone.

“Tch…” Kabuto laughed at you comment. “Unless Danzo wants it…”

“Danzo Shimura, Founder of Root?” You ask. You knew of him, but he was the Black Ops shinobi of Konoha. Everyone knew he did the dirty work that the Hokage couldn’t abide by but also allowed his acts. Ninja Gyro always felt that sort of unchecked level of power would easily bend any man no matter how moral. Danzo always felt...shady. Appropriate he was the Shinobi of Darkness.

“He no doubt has his eye on you now. The increase in your power is a threat to his security and your sudden absence...doesn’t look well.” Kabuto pushed his glasses up and his suddenly stand.

“...I should probably check in…” You materialize your shinobi uniform to the awe of Haku and fascination of Kabuto with your hand symboless power.

You decide to wait until Miss Yuki awoke before you left. You did not wish to be rude and was still concerned for her health. The curse mark of the underworld was very concerning and in tandem with the powerful Ice Release the Yuki Clan has, she would be a powerful agent for Orochimaru. A cold chill of worry spread through your body and realized that perhaps having Haku in Konoha would also mean that Miss Yuki would not target the Village Hidden in the Leaves. At least until Orochimaru wanted to do whatever he wanted with against Konoha. You knew if you were going to figure out the snake sannin’s plans you needed to play nice. If he was going to attack your home, you wanted to know how and why. Despite saving you, there was the worry that he was able to easily enter the village during the middle of the day and took you without anyone even seeing you depart.

“H...Haku.” Yuki surprised you three, standing at the doorway of the lab and Ms. Yuki stumbled into the room.

“Mom!” Dashing to his mother the two embraced in a long hug, “I missed you mama.”

“I missed you too baby, but we’re together now.” Kissing the top of her son’s head she looked to you and Kabuto. The grey haired young shinobi got a chair for her and she weakly sat down and thanked him. Haku stood at her side, and you kept glancing at her leg where the cursed mark had been placed… “...So. Where is Orochi-sama?” She asked.

“Currently on a mission to speak with his fellow Sannin with Master Izumo.” Kabuto said, and you raise a brow at that.

“What? You didn’t tell me that…” A wave of worry hit you. With those eyes of his, even two sannin might be taken by surprise.

“Because it wasn’t your business to know. They tracked Lady Tsunade at a gambling den, her bar tab and gambling debts also popped up on database searches. Jiraiya just published his last book and is relaxing at a hot springs resort in the same town. Master Orochimaru intends to offer them a truce on the grounds of dealing with the Akatsuki…” Kabuto explained.

“...not good.” You murmer. You turn to Miss. Yuki. “.....Miss. Yuki. Would you and your son like to return and live at Konoha? Haku can come to school at the Academy and meet kids his own age.” You offer, as you quickly try to locate Orochimaru or Izumo’s energy…

“Oh...well we would have to omit..all of this of course but - I think it’d be nice for Haku to make friends…” Ms. Yuki smiled to her son who hugged her close. You finally get a bead on Orochimaru, they were pretty far away but you could teleport to them.

>A. Instant Transmission to Orochimaru and Izumo

"Miss. Yuki, Haku. I can take you back to Konoha with me." You say, surprising the two.

"Oh? Would your village accept us...?" Yuki asked, looking over to Haku with a look of worry.

"I'll talk to the Hokage, but I think he'll be open to the option." This way they could keep an eye on two powerful individuals and perhaps keep them out of Orochimaru's machinations.

"..." Yuki was silent, but Haku had large eyes.

"...Mother...can we please?" He asked, and finally the woman relented.

"...fine, but the public cannot know our connection to this place. If my son is endangered, I will not hesitate to use the power given to me to defend myself and Haku." She had a look of steel and fury in her eyes. You were almost frightened by the seriousness in her voice.

"R-right...well, here hold hands..."

"How do you intend to teleport them?" Kabuto asked interesting. "Some sort of space-time jutsu?"

"It's similar to the body flicker and the Yellow's flashes technique. Only with no seals or scrolls required." You say, and Kabuto tilts his head with confusion. You close your eyes and focus on Konoha you had some options but the best one seemed...

You focus on energy signatures, until you locate the one at Konoha Academy. With a push of will, and ki you and the other two were gone with a 'pop' and arrive infront of a frightened Iruka.

"Gah!" Iruka had been sitting behind his desk, and nearly fell over in his seat. Haku chuckled, but Yuki immedietly went to help your fellow chuunin up.

"Oh! Are you ok?" She asked sliding a length of hair behind her ear. Iruka looked up and his face turned pink.

"O-oh, yeah....thank you." Iruka said pulling himself up with her reach. "How did you...." He asked looking over at you with confusion but you just wave it off.

"It's magic. I don't have to explain anything." You say and Iruka just sighed.

"Alright....you might wanna go check in with the Hokage..." He didn't look away from Yuki and you could already tell he was mesmerized by her. Ninja Gyro even remarked this was very Un-Iruka like.

"Right. Would you mind looking after these two for me? Haku needs to get enrolled." You pat the kid on the head and Haku just smiled softly.

"Oh, uh sure." Iruka nodded and offered seats for Haku and Miss. Yuki to sit down.

"Great - mmmmh." You could go directly to the Hokage or go see what Orochimaru was doing.

You now focus on Orochimaru and Izumo. They had gone far south, and were also hiding themselves but you eventually picked up on the Snake Sannin. Popping out of existence, you reappear in time to find the snake sannin and the dragon blood eyed nin were both ontop of a roof. Peering below, you realized they were looking into a hot spring. Which was where the Sannin of the Toads was busy trying to not get caught in. Your face turned red when you saw that all three were spying on a woman’s bathing area. Inside - you caught the glimpse of a blonde head, and could sense an immense well of chakra now that you could tell the two energies apart. She also had - well you averted your eyes for modesty sake when the towel she wore was pulled off. You decide instead to watch the pair, who were watching the pervy sage, spying on someone you instinctively felt was the third Sannin, Tsunade.

“Gyro. So glad you could join us.” Bat like wings stretched behind Izumo’s back as he flapped enough to stay floating in the sky. You were surprised he snuck up on you - but the eyes of his may have had something to do with that. “Orochimaru-sama was simply filling me on the plan. Once Master Jiraiya is discovered, we can make our move.” Izumo folded his arms behind his back and tilted his head. “Or did you come for another reason?”

“I am here to speak with the other sannins for my own personal reasons.” You inform, and Izumo gives you a bow. “Ah, well. Then when Lord Jiraiya is injured, we shall intend to his injury and keep further harm from Master Tsunade-sama.” Izumo said, gliding back down and gracefully landing next to the snake sannin who had a deathly stillness, much like a snake before it struck. You floated down, but landed out by the front door. Walking around, and judging where the women’s spa was, it was just a matter of figuring the right angle and…

“GAAAAH!” Jiraiya erupted through brick and mortar some yards away behind you but you were mostly correct. What you didn’t predict an enraged Tsunade following.

“Clothes Beam!” On reflex, the Medical Master was given a gi similar to the one Kado wore. The sannin looked down at the clothes, her anger replaced with confusion before she got a look at your headband.

“A Leaf nin? Are you with Jiraiya?” Her tone was accusatory but you could see how she’d mistake you for being with him. Shaking your head, you hold your fingers to your lips and then telepathically say,

‘I’ve been tracking you and the other sannin down. I wish to meet you for reasons that will become clear.’ You assure. She’s shocked by the words finding their way into her head but she just nodded. Looking over to the Toad Sannin, you find him sticking into a wall. Peeling him off, you sat him down while Tsunade examined her damage.

“Well - you’ll be fine but really Jiraiya..after what I did last time…” Tsunade huffed as she healed his broken nose. “So. Who’re you?” She asked, finally after she slapped Jiraiya on the back of the head when he tried to grope her when she got too close. “And what do you need with the sannin?”

“>A. “I am Gyro Venture, Chuunin of the Leaf.”
>B. “I’ve come to train with you to reach your levels.”
>C. “Well, I was hoping to ask Lady Tsunade if she could teach my class on medical ninjutsu. We’ll pay.”

>>2605023
“I’ve come to train with you to reach your levels.” You state, and Jiraiya and Tsunade look to one another before looking back to you. You then point upwards and leapt up to the rooftops, where Izumo and Orochimaru had been. The two Sages surprised by your single leap that took them several were skeptical.

“Gyro. I’m sorry, but I don’t just train anyone…” Jiraiya frowned and Tsunade’s fist tightened.

“...you should just go, kid. Go back to Sarutobi and ask him to train you.” Tsunade said, her tone making Jiraiya jump.

“Well, no need to be harsh Tsunade….” Jiraiya frowned, but the two Sages attention were caught by the arrival of the two you were looking for. Izumo emerged from a puddle of water, that turned from clear blue to dark red as he took shape.

“Yes, Lady Tsunade….” Covered in blood, Izumo smiled and the slug sannin Tsunade’s face turned pale. “No need to be harsh on Gyro here. He’s an excellent shinobi. Hmmm…? What is ever the matter?”

“Tsunade-chan has developed hemophobia...it is quite a shame…” Wrapped around Jiraiya, Orochimaru held the toad’s head in her hands. “...Quit struggling you old fool, or I’ll break something. I’m here to make you both an offer.”

“Go to Hell.” Spat Jiraiya. Tsunade stepped back the irrational fear driving traumatic memories, causing her nearly falling off the room but with faster than lightning quick reflexes you already saved her from a nasty fall before she tipped over the edge. Izumo stepped forward, but Tsunade took hold of your arm - and threw you at Izumo. You hit him square on, and the blood manipulator was sent flying, while you rolled back to your feet.


>continued.

>>2605136
“I do not plan too - but my old friend. I can offer you both something from the afterlife. I will bring back the ones you’ve lost or a favor for someone you know. Death has taken someone from us all, but I know how to bring them back.” Orochimaru’s offer was to good to be true. Your universe had ways to circumvent it through powerful miraculous acts. This world - this universe did not feel like it had that same magic your world did, and if it did it wouldn’t be as easy as promised. Tsunade, even in her fearful haze was ready to hit Orochimaru despite using Jiraiya as a hostage.

“The Akatsuki are causing to many issues in too many areas. I believe by pooling our resources and abilities we can deal with them as a whole. You know they will be a problem for you both. I’ve been on the inside, it cost me my body, but also gave me clarity.” The Snake Sannin relaxed her grip, and then unwound her extended body and walked to Tsunade. “I can return your Dan and Nawaki….”

“To be your puppets?” Retorted Tsunade. “I can’t trust a word from you…”

“Then don’t...trust one of your own.” Orochimaru nodded to you…

“I don’t trust either of those two, but I know if you won’t protect Konoha. I will.” You assert. Tsunade's face twists into anger.

"How...dare you! You have no idea what I've lost!" She pulled you up by your throat and clenched her fist. A hand caught her from pulverizing your face.

"Tsunade..." Jiraiya shook his head. "I don't agree with him, but...he's right." Jiraiya lowered her fist, and you were dropped back onto the ground. Damn she's strong...

"Ah...so good to see we're all finally coming around." Orochimaru smiled but her grin only crept you out.

"I know you three have issues, but I'm afraid everything that was built will be destroyed if we don't do anything." You say, and while Jiraiya seemed more on your side you could still tell the other two legendary sages were apprehensive. You needed to something that will really get them to work with you.

"Fine. Don't work together, but when this land is razed and destroyed. Remember that you could have stopped it now." You had a tone in your voice, an attitude that you were not used too. Was this Ninja Gyro’s temper seeping through, or your own anger finally revealing itself? These three people were adults, professionals and here you were trying to get them to work together as...as if they were children. Well good thing you knew how to work with kids. “Tsunade-sama. I am sorry, and your right I do not know what you’ve lost. However - if you truly cared. You would help Konoha and the five great nations by dealing with these terrorists.”

“...they weren’t always that way.” Jiraiya looked away, almost lost in a memory. “The Akatsuki once tried to help the Village Hidden in the Rain, but over time they changed...to what they are now.”

“Indeed. By the time I joined, they were set on a different goal entirely. They have a pursuit of peace but….” Orochimaru deigned to say more, even holding her hands over her mouth. “Oops...spoiler.”

“I...I can’t.” Tsunade admitted. “I can’t even look at blood...without it frightening me…”

“Well, my lady...that is what I’m here for.” Izumo assured. “I am a therapist after all.”

“...” Tsunade frowned, Jiraiya frowned and Orochimaru grinned….

“Fine.” Tsunade nodded her head. “I’ll...work with him but - we do this my way. Got it?” Tsunade said, giving Orochimaru a threatening look. “I don’t - need you to dig up the bodies of those I’ve buried. I’m doing this for their memory. Not for you to ruin it.”

“Oh. Tsunade…” Orochimaru just sighed but nodded. “Very well…”

“Good. We’re all working together. Cooperation is key to success.” Izumo as if he was in an after school special. “Come now...We have work to do.” Raising his hand, a summoning seal was activated, a gigantic white bat appeared. Hopping on top of it Izumo, was joined by Orochimaru and a reluctant Tsunade. Jiraiya however stood in his spot before turning to you.

“Jiraiya, you coming?” Tsunade asked and the toad sage shook his head.

“Actually. Wanted to thank the kid for helping me out.” He said, and you get a grin on your face.

“Really?” You ask, and then you fist pump going, “Yes!”

“Heh-heh.” Jiraiya smirked, and you both watched the bat fly off. “Well. You look like you know already what you want to learn, but I’ll ask. What do you wish from me, Gyro?”

You bounce up and down like a giddy young lad. Shouting out, “Rasengan, rasengan!” You say, a wide grin plastered over your face. Jiraiya laughed, and motioned you to follow him. Running beside him, you two make it to a clearing in a wooded area where the two of you would not be interrupted.

“You know of the technique, yes? So I imagine I don’t need to explain the A-Rank Jutsu.” Jiraiya waved his hand and you nodded your head.

“Yup. When I was in the Academy, I saw the Fourth use it. I made it one of my subjects for my thesis. It requires incredible chakra control, and broken down in three steps it is: rotation, power and containment. It’s a non-elemental chakra attack - as no one has applied any elemental release too due to the complicated nature of the technique’s formation.” Ninja Gyro was a NEEEEERRRRRD but helped he actually knew this, but just knowing the theory behind a jutsu didn’t mean you could do it. Well - until now. Hera-seijin Gyro’s abilities were beyond even the Hokages and you could perform skills on par with the Legendary Sage of the Six Paths. Now was probably the only time you could learn this skill…

“On contact, the Rasengan grinds into its target.” Jiraiya created one in his hand, using his other hand to support his wrist. “It propels them along the Rasengan's trajectory - either away from the user or into the ground beneath them.” He performed the technique on a tree, showing you how the orb of spinning chakra reacted when used. “At some points it’ll burst, causing severe damage at the point of contact…” The orb did just, Jiraiya leaping back as the tree turned into splinters. “Once formed, the spiral sphere does not need any more chakra to fuel it…”

“I see…” You hold up your hand and frown.

“Rotate your chakra, learn to spin it in multiple direction at once. Make sure you learn to move with the chakra in your body and not against it or you’ll only find struggle.” Jiraiya advised, tossing you a water balloon. Looking at you, the sage was curious to see your abilities. “Once you are able to do that, you must then increase your chakra volume and denseness.”

“Hm…” Holding up the balloon you close your eyes and focus. You knew how to make your ki naturally spin, but chakra was new to you.

You didn’t even need the training. An orb, even bigger than Jiraiya’s formed and it was bright yellow. The sage eyes widened and you matched him as you stared at the orb in awe. You did not lose focus, and kept ahold of the chakra in your hand.

“And you sure you are only a chuunin?” The older ninja asked.

“Heh-heh...well…” You chuckle but then raise the orb up and then copied his attack and destroyed - well three trees instead of one. “Let’s just say I’m having a good day.”

“A very good day indeed...hurm. Well if you caught on that quick. Perhaps you can do what I and the Fourth could not and mold an element into it…”

“Well. I’m proficient with fire and lightning, but I can bring them together for my bloodline release. Plasma.” You answer, and Jiraiya's eyebrows raised up.

“Oho. Why didn’t you start with that? Try combining that with the Rasengan.” Jiraiya encouraged.

Creating a rasengan in one hand and molding plasma chakra into it made the sphere go from blue to a dark green. The green sphere had an intense heat, even with it all contained in the chakra orb. Jiraiya had to leap away and the grass and trees around you were lit on fire. The sage used a water jutsu, but much of it was turned to steam it got too close. You released the orb into the sky, throwing it as hard as you could. It erupted, expanded and you were nervous that it would grow to the size where it wouldn’t stop but you were both relieved and surprised by the powerful nova explosion. Night briefly turned into day and the explosion created a mushroom cloud high in the sky. The resulting force still even felt despite the high distance it went.

“...Well now. That’s an S-Rank jutsu if I ever saw one. That was perhaps stronger than a bijuu’s bomb…”

“Ahehehe…” You chuckle flexing your hand. “I didn’t even put much power behind that one…” Though you knew this technique most likely would only be needed as a last result. If you had put the same amount of plasma chakra that you did for a normal Starbomb into the Rasengan...you would probably level an entire village and then some.

“So. We can refine your training - or we can go back to Konoha, or make sure Tsunade hasn’t killed Orochimaru yet.” He says with a hearty laugh, while you think on that for a moment.

>A. Continue perfecting the Rasengan. See if you can do it with two hands.

Deciding to teleport back to Konoha, you rest a hand on Jiraiya’s shoulder and surprised him by teleporting right back to the Village Hidden in the Leaves. You focus on the strongest power and you end up right in the Third’s Office. With Danzo speaking to him.

“..which is why I believe your apprentice Gyro has gone rogue.” Danzo finished, before turning to you and the 3rd who gave you a somewhat shocked but warm response.

“Hello Sarutobi-sensei.” You grin, despite the many Root Ninjas all around you with their blades around your neck. Jiraiya was surprised by your teleportation skill, but reacted quickly and disarmed the masked shinobis and kunoichis that threatened you.

“Gyro...what trouble have you gotten yourself in now?” The Third asked, lighting a pipe with a fire release that lit his thumb aflame. “Getting your nose into places it shouldn’t, that curiosity of yourse will get you killed. I made you a student-teacher and here you are with a Sannin. If I promote you, next you’ll return with a Kage…”

“Well…” You look at Danzo. “He’s not gonna like it.” You respond, and the shinobi of darkness stared at you - you felt something, a genjutsu that he tried to place on you but it was repelled! Danzo’s one eye widened as his own genjutsu turned on him. “...so can he go and I can tell you, and then you can tell him?” You ask. The third sighed and simply held out a hand to Danzo to dismiss him.

“...” Danzo silently nodded, and walked out. The Root Ninjas quickly following behind.

“So - you trained under the third? Should’ve known.” Jiraiya slapped your backside. “Kid learned the Rasengan and combined it with his element just by observing!”

“Oh? Gyro’s always been intelligent and skill in jutsu but...that’s very interesting.” The third leaned back in his seat. “After his first mentor, Shisui sadly left us." You look at him, but stay silent. This was not the time to have that old argument. "I took it upon myself to mentor Gyro as there were no other free jounin at the time. Through that training we discovered his unique release.”

“Yes. I witnessed it.” Jiraiya said, looking back to you. “I suppose you’ll want to make the report?” You nod, and then inhale...

>A. Tell the third everything.
>B. Talk about the highlights, the Uchiha Akatsuki attack, Haku and his mother, everything about Orochimaru, and the Sannins team up.

>D. Inform and ask about Izumo

>>B. Talk about the highlights, the Uchiha Akatsuki attack, Haku and his mother, everything about Orochimaru, and the Sannins team up.

>>2607678
You give the third, the highlights of your day. After you took the kids out, you had spotted a mysterious figure. Tracking it, you were confronted by not just one Uchiha, but two. You even mention the name 'Obito' which got a wide eyed stare from both Sage and Hokage.

"What?" You ask them, their appearance as if they had seen a ghost.

"Obito...is the Uchiha who gave his eye to Kakashi. If he still alive..." The Hokage frown deepened and he got a look in his eye that you were all too familiar with.

"Well, after that I managed to hold them back - thanks to some help, but after that I was discovered by Orochimaru and he took me too one of his hideouts." You explain.

"!!" Jiraiya and the Hokage both surprised by 3 very powerful S-Rank nins were able to so easily infiltrate their village.

"We'll need to upgrade security..." Sarutobi made sure to write that down.

"Once there I met two members of the Yuki Clan, both of whom are with Iruka-sensei." You smirk, remembering the blushing, dolphin named Chuunin as he spoke with Miss. Yuki before you left.

"Yes. Iruka did send us that report..." Folding his hands together, he nodded for you too continue. "I'll make sure they are both left alone. Go on."

"Well, after that. I saw how Orochimaru was able to use his seals. Seeing both processes...was unsettling." You admitted, remembering Yuki gaining the mark and Izumo going through a false death like state. "After bringing the the last two members of the Yuki Clan here, I went back to make sure the Sannin didn't hurt one another...and eventually I managed to convince them to all work together."

"....Well now." The Third looked to Jiraiya and the old pervy sage confirmed the last part. "Anything else?"

"Uhh....well Orochimaru has a lot of people he's...experimenting on. One of them was from the Chinoike Clan...I kinda chose him to get the second level of power." You admit, letting out a nervous laugh. "I figured it'd either work, or he'd die...but he acted like the whole process was nothing. He had a Ketsuryugan..."

"Oh...That is an issue, but if we've managed to at least gain a truce with Orochimaru, perhaps..." The Third frowned. "...but for now. You've done good work, Gyro. You did well, if a bit rash. I'm also concerned with this new rise in power you have." He set down his pipe and looked at you intensely.

"It's...temporary." You admit, your shoulders sinking. "I can't really explain it, but it was the only thing that kept me alive through all that..."

"Fortunate, yes. Perhaps this will be what you can achieve one day on your own. How long do you think it will last?"

"I'm uh...not actually sure." You admit. "I figured it would - just go, when it was ready."

"Well? Is it ready to go?" The Third asked, and you look down at your hands...

>A. "Nah. I still have some work here to do."
>B. "I think I've done enough work, and studied enough too."
>C. "Maybe, but I'm not sure how I can actually leave..."
>D. Write-In?

"I think I've done enough work, and studied enough too." You hold a thumbs up. Then - a weird pulling sensation pulled at you. One moment you were in the Hokage's office, and the next you were on...some world. "Huh?" This was not the planet you had trained on for over two weeks straight. No - this place was much weirder! There were other planetoids and a giant chain all across the sky. "Where in the world..."

"Worlds, to be exact." Izumo said, appearing in front of you. Emerging from the ground as a fully liquidized being of blood before returning to solid form. "If you thought Orochimaru's labs were big..." Izumo's features bled away, replaced by that of Fu. "Your going to love this. You inspired me really." Fu grinned turning to you. "Now..shall we begin the true experiment?"

>Episode 9 End.

Wooh. Sorry for the long haul folks, was not meaning for stuff to take so long.

Hopefully the next thread will be faster paced.
