Chapter 24: Mission WTF?

Wow, it's been SO long! I'm so sorry, a million sorries for all of you guys! I was so busy and everything... bleh, I don't think you'd want to hear my excuses. Oh, woe pitiful me? Eh… well, SO SORRY! I'VE BEEN TRYING TO UPDATE IN SPECIFIC DAYS THAT ARE FREE, BUT… yeah, if I had more time… WELL! This is another chappie! I hope you enjoy! Oh yeah… WUTS AN AU? Please review and thanks reviewers!

AKEMI'S POV:

“Wow did I really pass out for that long?” I asked, walking up the stairs to Tsunade's office.

“What was worse…” said Kakashi. “Was that we tried EVERYTHING to get you to wake up.”

“Wait, what?”

“Well, by everything, I mean—.”

“GOOD MORNING!” I screamed happily as the door opened. I swear I heard a window shatter. It was Shizune who jumped by surprise.

“More like good afternoon,” she muttered. “What took you guys so long?”

“Eh, I had to visit someone real close to me,” I said. “Kakashi-chan too…”

“Uh, yeah…” he said.

“Well, Tsunade-sama is in the office,” said Shizune. “It seems as though she found something very interesting.”

“Uh… hah?”

Inside the office…

“Well, I see you've recovered very well,” said Tsunade.

“Uh, yeah, you can say that…” I said, looking over Kakashi, confused. He nervously grinned at me.

“The state of you from last time I saw you,” said Tsunade. “It wasn't very pleasant.”

“Wh-what do you mean?” I said, panicked, whipping my head angrily at Kakashi. He shrugged nervously.

Hmm, his shrug-ish actions… Very… curious…

“Whitey-chan?”

“Anyways, about you guys coming here,” said Tsunade, as Kakashi sighed. “It's about that book I got from your last mission.”

“Oh…”

I looked at Kakashi nervously. He just smiled.

“That book has VERY ancient scriptures,” said Tsunade. “VERY! Like I had to mop the cover twenty times… very old…”

“Ew…”

“Yeah, so anyways,” said Tsunade. “The book has the image of your seal on your stomach Akemi.”

“My…?”

“May I see your seal?” she asked.

“Uh… yeah,” I said.

I pulled up my shirt halfway until my seal was clearly exposed. The seal was somehow more visible than expected.

“What the…”

“I knew it!” she said. “HA!”

She took off the half bitten claw marked black book out. The dust blinded us at once.

“GAH!” I screamed. “I'M BLIND!”

“I hope this is temporary…” muttered Kakashi, rubbing his right eye.

“See what I had to go through?” coughed Tsunade, opening the window.

She sat once again on her seat.

“Okay… anyways,” she said. “This book has actually pretty interesting stuff about your seal.”

“Like… if you mean `stuff' you mean like… powers?” I asked.

“Well, yes,” said Tsunade. “Eh, I should just get to the point.”

“One of my friends from the other villages translated this book for me in the section about your seal. That seal was actually used once,” said Tsunade. “It's actually odd in how to use it…”

“Sai…” I thought. “You know anything about this?”

“…”

“Sai?”

“It was used to seal one demon on a full moon,” continued Tsunade. “It said it only works in the full moon, includes sacrifices, and also the blood that awakened it.”

“Sounds like some weird voodoo types,” I muttered.

“The seal was created in a small clan called Tsuki; the clan of seals and mystery,” said Tsunade. “This clan however was extinct seventy years ago from some unknown force. There were no survivors. And the weird thing was how the village people died.”

“How?” I asked. “Obvious, maybe some bandits or…”

“This clan is very mysterious in many ways,” said Tsunade. “But their village was unknown to many… no, all of us. The base of the village was kept as though it would require a blood password of some kind to enter the village.”

“What?”

“How they became extinct is unknown,” said Tsunade. “Something had attacked them all at the same time.”

“Hmm…”

“The demon that I mentioned before,” said Tsunade. “Was sealed… and was marked just like the markings on your stomach Akemi-chan.”

“Eh…”

“It's pretty obvious that the demon killed everyone,” said Kakashi.

“The marks on the villager's bodies were appeared to be claw marks and bite marks,” said Tsunade. “Some were missing half their bodies, others only had only left behind their hands, while the rest of them were devoured.”

“Gonna barf,” I said.

“What happened to it?” asked Kakashi.

“The demon just disappeared,” said Tsunade. “In the legend so far, the demon split into nine demons, giving an unequal amount of power to each of them. It is said that the seal ritual was not complete.”

“Oh my gawd,” I said. Kakashi stared.

“You mean…”

“The nine demons around this day,” said Tsunade. “The ninth happens to be in Naruto's body.”

“Was the demon THAT powerful?” I said.

“What I'm more worried is the fact it'll resurrect again to this day,” said Tsunade. “That demon is named the `Gin Urufu', and its powers happen to grow stronger near the full moon. Once it resurrects, it will try to find the nine demons of its split power and regain all of the demons inside of it once more to create more wreck and havoc.”

“So you're saying a demon is inside me?” I said. “What the hell…”

“Akemi-chan, did anything strange happen?” asked Tsunade. “Anything about yourself that might be a concern about this entire discussion we are having?”

“Uh…”

FLASHBACK:

“You'll need me next time…and don't try to resist…”

END OF FLASHBACK

That… voice… I know it wasn't Sai's.

“Akemi,” said Sai. “Say nothing.”

“What? Why?”

“It is none of their concern.”

“Uh… no,” I said. “Not at all.”

I felt Kakashi looking at me. Tsunade gave me the “suspicious” look. Sai is getting weird today…

“Kakashi told me about the river trip when you and the kids had to take care of dogs,” said Tsunade. “He told me someone was going after you.”

“What?”

I looked at Kakashi. He looked away from me.

“Akemi-chan,” said Tsunade. “I've heard of the Akatsuki going after the nine demons around the four villages. I know Naruto is sure well protected, but if they find out you have the demon of the Nine sealed within you; which they might have known already, they will attack you head on.”

“I…”

“Out priority is to keep this discussion a secret,” said Tsunade. “And Akemi should be kept a secret. Her seal might break anytime and anywhere, so we have to be sure she is kept here at all costs, away from those who would grasp her power.”

“What are you saying?”

“Akemi-chan, you are fired from being a ninja,” said Tsunade. “As to this day, you will remain in Konoha. I—.”

“Wait, WHAT?” I said angrily. “Fired? But—.”

“We have no choice,” said Tsunade. “I can't have you run along outside of this village doing a couple of missions. There is a chance that you will be killed because of the power in you. People who know of this will stop at nothing to have you.”

“I…”

“Akemi-chan, I am sorry,” said Tsunade. “But please understand; I want you safe.”

I stared on the ground.

“I understand.”

“It was for the best,” said Sai. “This is actually the best way.”

“You may work with Ayame and Teuchi in her small ramen restaurant just across from here,” said Tsunade. “I've heard you love to cook and I'm sure they'll gladly hire you.”

“Yeah…”

“I will further investigate this book in due time,” said Tsunade. “Akemi, your ramen job will start next week, but meanwhile, I have for you and Kakashi one last mission before your retirement.”

“Retirement?” I said dully. “I remember the words `fired' but not retirement.”

“It's actually a small one, but it will take three days,” said Tsunade, giving Kakashi the scroll. “I wish you luck.”

I bowed.

“Akemi-chan, I know this is difficult—.”

“It's not,” I said. “Just… I have somewhere to get to.”

“Yes, you are excused,” said Tsunade.

Kakashi and I both left the office. I felt his hand on my shoulder.

“Akemi-chan,” said Kakashi. “I had to tell her everything.”

“Because of you I have to stay in Konoha until I die or something,” I said, shoving his hand away. “And because of you, I would have to stay here and I won't see you guys again.”

“We'll visit!” said Kakashi. “I didn't do this for nothing.”

“You did it to make my life miserable,” I snapped. “Isn't it time you stopped ruining my life?”

“I—.”

“I'd rather die than be alone again,” I said.

“Look Akemi-chan, I did it for your safety,” said Kakashi. “And that was a very emo line…”

“Just because it would be dangerous for me out there doesn't concern me!” I said. “And shut it!”

“It concerns me!” said Kakashi.

“How does my life concern you?” I spat.

“Because I care about you!”

“…”

Kakashi sighed as I stared.

“Akemi-chan,” he said. “If you died… I would never forgive myself.”

“It's going to happen anyway,” I said angrily. “What's the point?”

“Don't say that,” said Kakashi.

“Whatever, I'm going to visit Obito,” I said.

I stomped off towards the stone tablet. My life is so screwed…

KAKASHI'S POV:

Akemi didn't speak to me for two days, only when I came over her house for the mission Tsunade gave us. I knocked on her door.

“Yo,” I said happily as Akemi opened the door.

She closed it instantly.

“Akemi-chan, c'mon,” I said, knocking it again.

“Go away,” she said.

“We have to do this mission for Tsunade-sama,” said Kakashi. “C'mon Akemi.”

Akemi came out and grabbed my book.

“Infinite Slaps of Pain for Being Annoying, Mean, And Making Me Pissed Fury Ultra Omega Technique! Infinite Slaps of Pain for Being Annoying, Mean, And Making Me Pissed Fury Ultra Omega Technique! Infinite Slaps of Pain for Being Annoying, Mean, And Making Me Pissed Fury Ultra Omega Technique! Infinite Slaps of Pain for Being Annoying, Mean, And Making Me Pissed Fury Ultra Omega Technique! Infinite Slaps of Pain for Being Annoying, Mean, And Making Me Pissed Fury Ultra Omega Technique! Infinite Slaps of Pain for Being Annoying, Mean, And Making Me Pissed Fury Ultra Omega Technique! Infinite Slaps of Pain for Being Annoying, Mean, And Making Me Pissed Fury Ultra Omega Technique! Infinite Slaps of Pain for Being Annoying, Mean, And Making Me Pissed Fury Ultra Omega Technique! Infinite Slaps of Pain for Being Annoying, Mean, And Making Me Pissed Fury Ultra Omega Technique!”

“GAH!” I said, trying to dodge all of the attacks.

“LEAVE ME THE FREAK ALONE!” Akemi snapped, closing the door again.

“Akemi-chan, please…” I said wearily, bruises all over. “This is your last mission after all.”

“DON'T REMIND ME!” she roared, grabbing my book again.

“YIKES!”

AKEMI'S POV:

“Where are we?” I asked.

Kakashi was just wearing his regular black t-shirt and pants. I had to wear a dress. Well, I didn't actually wear a dress, just a t-shirt and a small skirt. I decided to tag along, this was my last mission. Kakashi is being skilled at dodging my book attacks; however my final attack will come soon.

“What the…”

We were at this huge place filled with people. I growled.

Good looking people.

There were a ton of young woman and men all around. Talking and laughing (plus giggling might I add).

“Uh.”

“Well, this is our mission,” said Kakashi cheerfully.

“Um, flirting with people?” I asked.

“No,” said Kakashi. “We have to find a couple.”

“Wait, where's Sakura-chan and—?”

“It's just us,” said Kakashi, poking my nose.

“What the fudge?”

“There is a young woman and man here who are supposed to be engaged,” said Kakashi. “They both hold a stone Tsunade needs and we have to protect them.”

“Ah…”

A young man came up to me. He looked younger, possibly around nineteen or twenty. He didn't look that bad, he was pretty cute.

“Kakashi-san?” asked the young man. “Akemi-san?”

I nodded. He bowed.

“My name is Hatori,” he said, grinning.

“You're the one we have to protect?” I asked. He nodded.

“Where's the girl?”

He sadly pointed to the left side.

There was a girl with long brown hair chatting with a group of good looking guys; almost like she was flirting. Her skirt was way too high by the way…

“I can't help but thing she's a…”

“Yeah,” said Kakashi.

“She's the girl, Aname,” said Hatori. “She and I were supposed to be engaged to be married, but she refused and ran away. I followed her here.”

“Wow, that sucks,” said Kakashi.

“Really?” I said sarcastically. “Eh, I guess looks are all important in guys.”

“That's not true,” said Kakashi. “Not all guys.”

I rolled my eyes.

“You say that now Kakashi-bozu,” I said.

“I say it because it's true,” said Kakashi, smiling.

“Yeah, whatever…”

“She was actually my childhood friend,” said Hatori. “She's really nice and kind, I really do love her.”

“Aw,” I said. “That's so sweet.”

“So you're entering this contest too?” Kakashi asked.

“WUH? HUH?” I said.

“Yes,” said Hatori. “The problem is she's not really into me.”

“Well, can you guys at least tell me what this place is?” I asked.

“WELCOME!” boomed a voice.

“WAHH!” I screamed.

“TO THE ANNUAL COUPLE MATCH UP!” continued the voice of somewhat the same voice as King Kong. “HELLO EVERYONE AND ENJOY THE SHOW!”

“Wait, WHAT?” I snapped. “MATCH UP?”

“Sorry Akemi-chan,” said Kakashi. “I knew you'd freak if I told you sooner.”

“Akemi, don't you dare,” said Sai. Sai was right.

“Later people,” I chirped, trying to run. Kakashi tightly grabbed my arm.

“Akemi-chan, you can't run from a mission,” said Kakashi. “Here…”

He gave me a small number patch. It said: 15

Kakashi's was 9, and Hatori's was 35.

“There are only three tasks,” said Hatori. “Hopefully I'll be Aname's partner.”

“Rgh… `only' three… PSH!” I muttered.

“FIRST TASK WILL START!” said the Kong announcer. “THE FIRST KISS-TO-PICK!”

Everyone except me cheered, and Kakashi; and maybe Hatori.

“A what?”

A young woman came and gave the announcer a small box.

“THE NUMBER I CALL OUT WILL COME TO THE STAGE AND PICK ANY NUMBER THEY WISH TO KISS!” said the announcer. “THE KISS WILL LAST ONE MINUTE, AND IF ANY OF THE KISSER'S REFUSE TO CONTINUE WITHIN THAT LIMIT, THEY ARE EXPELLED!”

“I'm out,” I said. “Seriously.”

I tried running toward the back door.

“NUMBER 12!”

“What are you doing?” whispered Kakashi, grabbing me again.

“Look Kakashi,” I said. “This place is all about the looks, more than half… wait, ALL of these girls are way better looking than me. No one is gonna pick me, so what's the point?”

“NUMBER 12 CALLED NUMBER 26!” said the announcer. “ONE MINTUE, START!”

“Wait, we have to stay and guard them,” said Kakashi. “You can't just—.”

“Don't worry, I'll just guard the outside of this place,” said Akemi.

“NEXT IS NUMBER 9!”

“But—,” said Kakashi.

“Kakashi-san!” said Hatori. “You were called…”

“Ah…”

“Just go!” I said, pushing him roughly.

I saw Kakashi slowly come up the stairs of the stage. I saw that all of the girls were looking at him, sighing as though they saw an angel.

It wasn't only because no one would pick me. But I couldn't bear to see someone kiss Kakashi. It was weird, but I couldn't bear it.

“NUMBER 9 HAS ENTERED THE STAGE!”

I was near the exit. I saw Aname hopefully looking at Kakashi, ignoring her dude buddies talking to her.

I sighed.

What's the use…?”

“NUMBER 9 HAS CALLED…”

I opened the door.

“NUMBER 15!”

I stood, frozen stiff.

“NUMBER 15, PLEASE ENTER THE STAGE!”

I whipped my face to see Kakashi smiling at me. Most of the girls cast an angry look at me. WHAT THE F—?

“I REPEAT, NUMBER 9 HAS CALLED NUMBER 15, PLEASE ENTER THE STAGE!” said the announcer.

“Oh my gawd…” I whispered.

To be continued…

Sorry I had to leave it there guys; I know you're really mad at me, but… SORRY! Eh, so… Kakashi chose Akemi for the first round, for what purpose? Was it really because he didn't want her to leave? Or something else…? Hmm… And so now we know the facts about the Gin Urufu… but are there more? NEXT CHAPPIE COMING SOON!
