Akari's POV

Damm bastard...knocked me out. Apparently "I would've passed put from chakra loss sooner or later anyways," so he said. Now...I have one month to train. I won't have any rest during the month. I also have to hold up my promise to Sasuke and teach him a new technique. I sighed. I sure have a lot to do. For the finals, I was going to fight both Kakashi and Guy. If I don't improve, i'm 99.9% percent sure I'm screwed. I sighed. Fuck. First, let's go find duckass. He should be in the hospital or training with Kakashi. I'll go with the latter. I jumped from roof to roof. I walked up the mountain wall and sat on top of the Yondaime's stone face. Channeling chakra to my ears, I listened for Sasuke's voice. Hn. He is with Kakashi. I teleported to them. "Yo." I greeted. They looked at me. "Why are you here?" Kakashi asked. "To keep my end of a promise I made to Sasuke." I told him. Sasuke smirked. "About time." He said. Arrogant, cocky bastard...

Third POV:

Both of them sweatdropped. It was almost as if they could almost hear her thoughts chanting insults and quite the colourful words at Sasuke. Akari sighed. "So, what do you want me to teach you?" She asked. He looked at her. "I get to choose?" He asked. "No shit Sherlock. I'm obviously not asking you to choose. Maybe Naruto's stupidity is rubbing off on you..." She muttered. Both of them sweatdropped again. "You choose for me." Sasuke decided. Akari rose her eyebrows. 'Strange...but okay, I guess?' She thought. "What are his chakra natures?" She asked Kakashi.

Akari's POV:

Fire and lightning. Hn. "I might be able to teach you how to screw with a person's nervous system by messing with the electrical signals that are sent to the brain..." I mused. They shivered. "You...can do that?" The asked simultaneously. "Yeah, but it takes a lot of chakra and very precise chakra control." I told them. "Mabye something that...I don't know, can't endanger the very existence of shinobi?" Sasuke asked. "Fine. You can copy a technique from me." I said. I walked up to the edge of the cliff. Sasuke turned on his sharingan and walked up beside me. I did the required hand signs.

"Fire Style: Great Fire Dragon!"

I blew out an enormous stream of fire shaped like a dragon. His eyes widened. "Got it? Keep practicing, and one day, you'll be even better than me!" I said. He nodded. "Well, I have to go train. If I don't, I'm probably going to get my ass kicked." I told Kakashi. He chuckled. "It would be pretty hard for us to beat you, even if you didn't train." He admitted. "Hn. Then it looks like you'll have to do some training as well then." I smirked. "See ya." I said, and teleported away.

I was back on the ledge with the cherry blossom tree. I closed my eyes.

"It's been a while, hasn't it, Sagakami?" I greeted. "It has, indeed." She mused. "Now, i'll get straight to the point. The final rounds of the Chunin exams are coming up. I'm going against Kakashi and Guy. Can you train me?" I asked. She gave me a wolfish grin. "Why not?" She said. We both smirked. "Let's start. What was my mother's summoning?" I asked. "Me." She replied. "Huh?!" I shouted. "Her summoning was me." She said again. "Please explain how she could summon you..." I sweatdropped. She snickered. "Well, I wasn't her many summoning, but she had massive chakra reserves, enough to summon me. Her main summonings were wolves. Normal sized ones..." She added with a sweatdrop. I sighed. Thank Kami they're normal sized ones. Then again...I wonder what "normal sized" means for her...

"Where's the summoning contract?" I asked. "A snowy tundra near the outskirts of the land of snow, where the wolves live. In order to obtain the contract, you most likely will have to prove yourself worthy to them, though." She warned. I nodded. "Arigato. I suppose I should start heading there." I told her. She nodded.

I opened my eyes. So that's where the contract is. I head towards the Hokage's office. I knocked on the door. "Come in." Hiruzen said. I entered. "Permission to leave the village for a month to train?" I asked. "Train with who?" He inquired. "I'm going to see if I can make a contract with my mother's old summonings." I told him. He nodded. I turned and walked out the door. "Good luck, Shirubāshadou." I heard him say as I shut the door. Hn. Silver shadow? Fitting.

I walked out. Nighttime. I closed my eyes. It's been a while since I had such a peaceful moment like this. I drifted away in shadows, and appeared on top of Tobirama's stone face. Why waste such a peaceful moment? I took a deep breath, and began to sing.

(Akari)
Little do you know
How I'm breaking while you fall asleep
Little do you know
I'm still haunted by the memories
Little do you know
I'm tryna pick myself up piece by piece

Little do you know
I need a little more time

Underneath it all I'm held captive by the hole inside
I've been holding back for the fear that you might change your mind
I'm ready to forgive you but forgetting is a harder fight

Little do you know
I need a little more time

Suddenly, another voice joined in.

(???)
I'll wait, I'll wait
I love you like you've never felt the pain
I'll wait
I promise you don't have to be afraid
I'll wait
The love is here and here to stay
So lay your head on me

Little do you know
I know you're hurting while I'm sound asleep
Little do you know
All my mistakes are slowly drowning me
Little do you know
I'm trying to make it better piece by piece

Little do you know
I, I love you 'til the sun dies

I closed my eyes.

(Both)
Oh wait, just wait
I love you like I've never felt the pain
Just wait
I love you like I've never been afraid
Just wait
Our love is here and here to stay
So lay your head on me

I'll wait (I'll wait), I'll wait (I'll wait)
I love you like you've never felt the pain
I'll wait (I'll wait)
I promise you/I don't have to be afraid
I'll wait
The love is here and here to stay
So lay your head on me
Lay your head on me
So lay your head on me

(???)
'Cause little do you know
I, I love you 'til the sun dies

"Thanks, Sasuke. I needed that." I softly smiled. "You're leaving to train, aren't you." He said. I nodded. "Sing one more song, as a farewell?" He asked. I sighed. "Alright."

When the days are cold
And the cards all fold
And the saints we see
Are all made of gold

When your dreams all fail
And the ones we hail
Are the worst of all
And the blood's run stale

I wanna hide the truth
I wanna shelter you
But with the beast inside
There's nowhere we can hide

No matter what we breed
We still are made of greed
This is my kingdom come
This is my kingdom come

When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It's where my demons hide
It's where my demons hide
Don't get too close
It's dark inside
It's where my demons hide
It's where my demons hide

At the curtain's call
It's the last of all
When the lights fade out
All the sinners crawl

So they dug your grave
And the masquerade
Will come calling out
At the mess you made

Don't wanna let you down
But I am hell bound
Though this is all for you
Don't wanna hide the truth

No matter what we breed
We still are made of greed
This is my kingdom come
This is my kingdom come

When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It's where my demons hide
It's where my demons hide
Don't get too close
It's dark inside
It's where my demons hide
It's where my demons hide

They say it's what you make
I say it's up to fate
It's woven in my soul
I need to let you go

Your eyes, they shine so bright
I wanna save that light
I can't escape this now
Unless you show me how

When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It's where my demons hide
It's where my demons hide
Don't get too close
It's dark inside
It's where my demons hide
It's where my demons hide

I looked at Sasuke. He had fallen asleep. I chuckled, and teleported him back to his house and put him on his bed. Then I teleported into Kakashi's room and left a quick note telling him where I would he going. Finally, I teleported to the village gates. Kotetsu and Izumo nodded at me. I looked up at the moon and the stars.

Let the quest begin.
