Chapter 21
Alexis's POV
A few hours later
Me and Sora walk into the forest as I'm showing him the boundaries of Konoha.
I hear a laugh and I'm immediately on my guard as a guy with white hair comes into my line of sight. I silently take out two kunai and I hold them in one hand as I walk with Sora behind me.
"Ah, if it isn't The Myth and Sora." The guy says as he eats a sweet potato.
I look at him closely before I silently gasp and he nods to me. "I see, well then, Sora, come along, we've almost finished your tour of Konoha, we don't need to hang around scumbags like him." I say and Sora looks at me confused.
"You don't judge people I thought so why do you call him a scumbag?" Sora asks me.
"Because he did a horrible thing to his own child and he threatened Lord Third's life." I say and Kazuma smirks.
"So the smartest Uchiha in the world who doesn't like to choose, chose her village over her family." Kazuma says to me with a smirk. "And where did that lead you?" Kazuma asks me.
I bite my tongue. "Listen, those were orders given to MY brother, MY clan went the wrong way and directly did the opposite of what me and MY twin wanted, Lord Danzo gave those orders, you know nothing about the situation I've been in for years." I say walk over to him and he just smirks.
"Don't I?" Kazuma asks me.
I let out a shaky furious breath and I compose myself, I punch Kazuma in the face and he laughs from the ground. "Come on Sora and don't listen to him, those were my orders that I was given by Lord Third." I say and Sora just looks at me but follows.
How could Kazuma do that to Sora, that just makes me sick.
I finish showing Sora around and I leave him at the Hokage building. I walk back to my apartment.
"So, something tells me you've had an eventful week." Kakashi says as we walk.
I sigh. "You don't even know the half of it, now I understand why Lord Raikage is so grumpy all the time and then I found out earlier today that my two best friends are getting married and then I see someone I hoped I'd never see again and he just salted the wound." I say and Kakashi nods.
"I take it that you don't have time to help Naruto with his Wind Affinity?" Kakashi asks me.
"I will tomorrow, I'm taking the rest of the week off from missions." I say and Kakashi gives me a closed eyed smile.
"Good, Naruto will be happy to have someone with experience in Wind Chakra to help him." Kakashi says to me with a closed eyed smile.
I decide to take a walk instead of going back to my apartment so I switch to a different road and that makes Kakashi look at me confused.
"Where are you going?" Kakashi asks me.
"I'm just gonna walk around and clear my head, I've been to busy and being stressed takes years off your life." I say and Kakashi just nods with a closed eyed smiled and he turns down a different road.
I just walk as I sort everything out in my mind. I don't even realize people surrounding me. I push past them and they just scoff and grab my arm and throw me into the middle of their circle.
"Did you want something?" I ask as I stand up to look at the people surrounding me.
They smirk and try attacking me but I dodge.
"I see, your after the bounty on my head." I say and jump up, activating my Sharigan and they get caught in a Gen-Jutsu.
I land in front of them and I continue walking as I think.
Hana and Logan are getting married, that's a foreign word to me, I've never had to say it before, it sounds weird. Kazuma is planning something, should I tell Lady Tsunade? I doubt she even knows who Kazuma is and I'm sure Asuma already knows what's going on and Yamato must have told her about the mission from what I heard from Sora's rambles is that the same guy confronted him before.
I don't know, but something tells me that something bad is about to happen.
I sigh and look up at the sky to see stars littering it. I walk to the Uchiha compound and to the lake where a dock sits and I sit down at the edge.
Nii-San, I hope your ok wherever you are right now.
I sit there looking at the sky till I hear a crash and a barrier forms in front of me.
"What's going on?" I ask as I run through the compound with ANBU following me.
"The Guardian Shinobi Twelve are attacking, minus Asuma." One of them informs me.
"I knew it, you two, go protect Lady Tsunade, you two, go to the front lines and help wherever you can, and you, follow me." I order and they nod and jump away, all but one.
I run through the streets and I find who I'm looking for, I look at Sora and he just glares back. Naruto catches up and chases Sora while I nod to the ANBU, he jumps away, silently following them.
I run to the main gate to see Zombies. I pull out a few kunai and I see Choji, Ino, and a few other Chunin there along with Genma, Izumo and Kotesu.
"Alexis?" Ino asks shocked that I'm here.
"I knew something was wrong, and when that barrier formed, it confirmed my feeling, Kiba, Akamaru, behind you." I say and they take out a few zombies behind them.
"Thanks." Kiba says to me.
I nod and take out a few zombies coming after me.
After a while I being worn down by fighting these guys, they suddenly poof away and the mound disappears.
"I thought that It'd never end." Kiba says collapsing on the ground with Akamaru next to him whimpering.
Me and Ino start healing people.
"Thanks Alexis, I don't think I could have done this all by myself." Ino says after we finish.
Soon the barrier goes down along with the statues, but a few minutes later lightning starts forming above us.
"That's not good." I say and run down the streets, I find Asuma stuck and I cut the rods so he can get out.
"Thanks Alexis, but where's Hana and Logan?" Asuma asks.
"I don't have a clue, they're somewhere. But isn't that Limelight?" I ask pointing to the sky.
Asuma nods. "You still remember the Guardian Shinobi Twelve I take it?" Asuma asks.
I nod.
"Then you go stop the other three, I have this one." Asuma says to me.
I nod and run down the streets. I find the first one and I see Tou.
"Who are you?" She asks me.
"Alexis Uchiha, its nice to see you again Tou." I say to her and she looks at me shocked.
"Your the little girl who use to watch me train?" Tou asks me shocked.
I nod. "Stop this Tou." I say to her and she just shakes her head.
"I can't I must do as I was ordered." Tou says to me.
The lightning disappears along with Tou.
Asuma must have done something. Good.
I look around as I feel a huge chakra. "Can't we get a break Kazuma?" I ask as I run towards it, I see Sora turning into the Nine tails chakra mode thing like how Naruto did. "Kazuma." I say turning to look at his smirking figure. I walk over as small craters appear under my feet.
"Now the Leaf Village with surely be destroyed!" Kazuma yells and I punch him in the jaw and he flies into a tree.
"What sick twisted person would force his son to be a pseudo-Jinchuriki? That's painful on his part and you don't even care, your just using him like a tool." I say to him and Kazuma smirks.
"He's my son, I can do what I want with him." Kazuma says and that sets something off inside me.
"He's your flesh and blood and you would just use him? That's wrong, he's a living being just like you and should be treated as one." I say and kick Kazuma through a tree.
"Alexis is about to turn into someone ugly." Logan says and covers Sakura's and Hana's eyes and Hana covers his.
My Mangekyo flares up and that makes my aura ten times deadlier.
"Alexis, I'll handle this." Asuma says and I can tell he heard what Kazuma said too.
I nod and step back.
I look at Sora and I walk over and everyone turns to me but Asuma and Kazuma because they're fighting.
Sora transforms into the chakra beast mode and attempts to hit me but my Susanoo blocks it with its sword.
"This is what makes Alexis scary, her Susanoo is the only one of its color and skill." Logan says and Hana nods.
My Susanoo is White and its skills are higher than Nii-Sans Susanoo because with my healed eyes my Susanoo doesn't hurt me at all anymore and it has no strain on my eyes. It looks like a larger version of me, but with two swords strapped to its back.
"She's able to use that?" Kazuma asks shocked.
Logan and Hana just look at me as the incomplete Susanoo blocks the Tails.
"You don't want to see her when she's complete." Logan says and Hana nods in agreement.
Naruto manages to calm Sora down and they both lay on the ground injured. I release my Susanoo that was protecting everyone and Kazuma was killed by Asuma this time.
Sakura and Ino heal the two boys while I heal Asuma's injuries.
"Thanks Alexis." Asuma says and I nod and walk over to Sora who's waking up.
Sora looks at me before he looks at Naruto and everyone else.
"He'll be fine." Lady Tsunade says walking over to us.
"And you know that how?" I ask and Lady Tsunade smirks at me.
"I just know." Lady Tsunade says to me.
I just sit down on the hill, pretty much exhausted.
Hana and Logan walk over to me and sit down in front of me.
"Good job Alexis." Hana says to me.
I nod in thanks, too tired to answer.
"She's been stretched to far." Hana says and Logan nods.
"I'm so glad that I'm taking the rest of the week off, that means sleep." I say and Hana and Logan laugh.
"She's an Uchiha but doesn't act like one." Sai says walking over.
I roll my eyes and stand up. "You should be in the hospital, that arm won't heal with Nin-Jutsu ya know." I say to him and Sai smiles at me.
"I couldn't stay out of the action." Sai says to me.
"Alexis? Who's this?" Hana asks me confused.
"This is Sai, one of the newest members of Team Kakashi, Tenzo over there is the captain when Kakashi can't be." I say and Tenzo rolls his eyes.
"Call me Yamato." Tenzo says to me.
"Now Sai, get back to your hospital room, the doctors and nurses are probably freaking out." I say to him and Sai just smiles but listens to me.
"You should have a team under you." Lady Tsunade says to me.
Logan starts laughing. "Alexis, with a team? Now that's something I'd love to see." Logan says and I hit him on the head and he falls on his back and I step on him for good measure before I look back at Lady Tsunade.
"Maybe in a year or so Lady Tsunade, I'm already busy enough right now." I say to her and Lady Tsunade smirks.
"6 months." Lady Tsunade says to me.
"12 months." I say back.
"5 months."
"11 months."
"4 months."
"4 months."
"11 months." Lady Tsunade says but then realizes what she said, but too late.
"Deal." I say and Hana and Logan laugh.
"Fine, 11 months." Lady Tsunade says and her and Shizune walk back to the Hokage tower.
"I'm heading home, I need sleep." I say and Hana and Logan get up.
"Slumber party?" Hana asks me with a raised eyebrow in question.
I look at her and Logan. "Don't blame me if I fall asleep." I say to them and they grin.
We walk to my apartment and I unlock the door and walk in with the two behind me.
"Alright, what should we do first?" Hana asks.
"Knock yourselves out, I'm going grocery shopping tomorrow so eat whatever's left, there's blankets in the spare room, pillows too, you guys know where everything else is." I say and they nod with grins on their faces.
I take my hair out of its pony tail as I walk to my room, I take my Jonin Flack Jacket and I leave it on the couch along with my Ninja gear. I leave my ninja sandals next to my bed and I walk to my bathroom with my pj's. I do what I need to and I change into my red tank and black sweats, then I walk into my bedroom to see Hana and Logan sitting on my bed and I already know what they want to do.
"Let's play a game." Hana says with a grin.
I sit down next to them and nod for her to continue as I braid my hair.
"Lets play Truth or Dare." Hana says and Logan grins. "Alexis, Truth or Dare?" Hana asks me.
"Truth." I reply.
"Oooh, ok, hmm, do you have a crush?" Hana asks me.
C flashes in my mind and I hesitantly work on my braid. "I don't know, and that's the truth, feelings are hard to understand as an Uchiha." I say and Hana and Logan smirk. "Logan, truth or dare?" I ask him.
"Dare, I'm no chicken." Logan says with a smirk.
"Lick the wall." I say and Logan smirks and licks the wall but then scrapes his tongue slightly.
"That's disgusting." Logan says and I smirk.
We play a few more rounds before I yawn.
Hana's POV
"Alexis, Truth or Dare?" I ask and look at her to see her sleeping upright with her head hanging and her legs crossed Indian style. Logan looks at her too and we nod and get up, I lay her down on the bed and cover her with a blanket, then me and Logan walk out of the room silently.
"She fell asleep on us." Logan says shocked.
"She must have been really tired then, we must have pushed her to far." I say and Logan nods.
"We owe our relationship to her I guess, she's the one who forced herself out of the middle so we could get together. She really is a good friend." Logan says and I nod. He picks my hand up and leads me to the spare room. "I guess we do baby her sometimes because she is the youngest in the team."
"Yeah, but she is the one we have to look out for because she has no family left in the village, she still loves her brothers more than the world, it'll crush her if anything bad were to happen to either one of them." I say quietly as I look at her door across from us with worry.
"She's an Uchiha, she can handle anything." Logan says and immediately I can tell he's worried too.
"Lets get some sleep, worrying won't do any good." I say and Logan nods.
We fall asleep in the spare room together.
