Storm's POV

The next morning

I wake up to the light shining in my eyes, I open my eyes and get blinded by the morning light, I close the blinds and enjoy the darkness.

"Hello darkness my old friend." I sing with a smirk and I hear a scream. I laugh and get up. "It's alright Kuro." I say walking to my door and grabbing my light blue comfy jacket and I slip it on, then I walk out with a yawn and a stretch.

Kuro walks out of her room to look at me. "Sensei, you know I live with you now, could you at least be decent in the morning and have a actual shirt on?" Kuro asks me with a small whine.

I laugh. "No Kuro, because the first thing I want in the morning is to not have anything that is restricting on, so me wearing a jacket is as close as your gonna get to me being decent in the morning." I say and walk to the kitchen.

"Sensei, what was the commotion last night?" Kuro asks as I get a glass of water.

"It was nothing you need to worry about, now, get yourself breakfast then get ready, I'm training you all day today and you need your strength." I say to her and she nods.

I walk to the bathroom and I shower, brush my teeth, brush out my hair, leave it curled in it's wet state and I walk out of my bathroom in only a towel.

I hear a knock on the door and I walk over and open it to see Kakashi there. "Sensei?" I ask confused and he looks me up and down, that's when I realize I'm still only in a towel. "Kuro, can you come here for a second?" I ask and she walks over. "Sensei, this is Kuro, Kuro, this is Kakashi Hatake, my teacher." I say and they look at each other.

"Hello?" Kuro asks confused.

"Storm, I came to talk to you in particular, can you get decent first?" Kakashi asks me.

I nod. "Wait in the living room, Kuro, go get ready, we leave to my training grounds in an hour." I say to her.

"Right Sensei." Kuro says and walks to her room.

I leave the door open and I walk to my bedroom. I change into a pair of dark blue jean short and a black tank with my jacket.

I walk back to the living room to see Sensei waiting. I sit down across from him.

"What did you want to talk about Sensei?" I ask him.

"You becoming Alpha, you should have done that by now, but your still here." Kakashi says to me in a serious tone.

I shh him. "Look, I made a deal with Elder to wait for a while, she agreed to it, thankfully. Even though she can't see, it's like her eyes are staring into your soul though." I say to him quietly.

"Why are you keeping this a secret?" Kakashi asks me in a serious voice.

"No one needs to know yet." I say and Kakashi sighs.

"Alright, but Yamato was grilling me last night, he doesn't know yet." Kakashi says and gets up.

I nod. "Thank you Sensei." I say to him and he nods then leaves.

I sigh and get up. "Alright, I'm getting a different jacket." I say and walk to my bedroom. I grab a hoodless dark purple jacket and I put it on. I leave my hair down and walk out of my room after I grab my stuff and put it in a bag. "Come on Kuro, are you ready?" I ask.

"No, about five more minutes and I'll be ready." Kuro says to me from inside her room.

I walk to the kitchen and eat some breakfast and when I finish, Kuro comes out in her normal attire.

I put my Ninja sandals on and we walk to my training grounds.

"Sensei, why aren't you wearing your holsters?" Kuro asks me.

"No missions today." I say to her with a smile and she gasps.

"S-Sense?" Kuro asks looking at something frightened.

I look over and my eyes widen. "Is, is that?" I ask as I back up slowly.

The thing starts creeping towards us.

"A creepy clown?" Kuro asks.

"How did, why did? What?" I ask confused and not exactly afraid, more like terrified.

I try stepping back but I can't, why can't I move?

"S-Sensei, what's going on?" Kuro asks frightened.

"I don't know." I say and the creepy clown laughs like a maniac. Kuro craps herself, not literally.

I shrink back slightly until I see a smirk, I look down to see shadow possession and I put two and two together. "PRANK!" I yell and me and Kuro run from how loud my voice is and I know it startled Shikamaru.

We run down the path back to the village and make it to Ichiraku's with the clown following us.

"SHIIIIITTTT!" I yell looking behind me to see the clown.

I grab Kuro's hand and run down a few alleyways, losing the clown and we appear in front of the Hokage building. I run up, three steps at a time with Kuro close behind and we run into the office, closing the door and hiding behind Tsunade's desk.

"What are you guys doing?" Tsunade asks me.

We shrink down and the clown busts in.

Tsunade kicks the clown and it poofs into Kakashi on the floor, dizzy and probably dead after that kick.

"SENSEI!" I yell at him and he laughs nervously. I pout. "I can't believe you scared the shit out of me and Kuro." I say and Tsunade laughs.

I sit on the floor next to the window.

"I knew we could never get Storm to scream." Shikamaru says from the door.

"She can yell, but not scream." Kakashi says as he gets up.

Tsunade smirks. "The prank war has started." Tsunade says to us.

I get up and help Kuro up. "Alright, come on Kuro, and if anyone, I mean anyone, tries pranking me again, your going six feet under." I say and everyone gulps. Me and Kuro walk back to my training ground.

"Sensei, what are we doing today?" Kuro asks me.

"Your fighting me with Tai-Jutsu only today." I say to her with a smirk.

Kuro pales slightly.

She attacks me in Tai-Jutsu after a minute of preparation. I dodge her attacks and block her, I attack her with a random punch or a kick, but not hard enough to hurt her seriously.

She drops after a few minutes. 

"Again." I say to her and she gets up.

That cycle continues to happen and during that time I take my jacket off from the sun making me sweat.

By the time its evening Kuro is worn out.

"Again." I say and she gets up and attacks me, but sloppily. "Enough." I say and she falls, I catch her and set her against a tree.

"Sensei, todays training was brutal." Kuro says to me.

I smirk. "Its called torture training, to fight when your exhausted and bruised and beaten is what a Leaf Shinobi does, because we don't sell each other out and we don't betray each other, we stick close to each other like a family and protect this village with the Will of Fire." I say to her and she nods.

"My body can't take anymore right now though." Kuro says to me.

"You have to push yourself past your limit, Naruto, Sakura and I have and look where that got us, Naruto is on his way to become Hokage, Sakura is a mini Tsunade and I have the reputation of Karma. Everyone has pushed past their limit in training, now its time for you to take the next step and get up on your own." I say to her and she looks at me in awe.

I step to the side and she gets up slowly with a determined look.

"I'm gonna put you through hell training everyday that I get off from missions and when I'm not here you are to continue training in what I taught you." I say to her and Kuro nods.

"Yes Sensei." Kuro says to me.

We continue to train and Kuro passes out from exhaustion. I catch her and teleport back home after grabbing my jacket.

I set her down on her bed and walk out of her room, I close the door and walk to my room.

I take my ninja sandals off and I change into my dark blue and black soft plaid pajama pants. I leave the tank on and walk to my kitchen, I make myself some food and sit at the counter eating.

The next morning

I stand at the gates and Sora walks up.

"Oh, Storm." Sora says shocked.

I nod in greeting, then look up at the sky. "Everyone's coming, give them a few minutes before you leave, they're always late in my opinion." I say to him and Sora nods. "Your not going back to the Fire Temple are you?" I ask him.

"No, I'm gonna travel and see the world." Sora says to me with a smirk.

I nod. "That's a good plan."

Everyone finally gets here and says goodbye to Sora and he leaves.

"So, Storm, what are you up to later?" Kiba asks me as he looks away from me with a nervous look in his eyes.

"Why?" I ask him.

I see Neji looking at the two of us with some weird look in his eyes.

"I just wanted to know if you wanted to hang out, maybe?" Kiba asks me.

I eye Kiba suspiciously. "Why?" I ask him in a suspicious tone.

"He's trying so hard." Shikamaru says a little bit away from us.

"Just like you said the other day, you've been gone on so many missions and we hardly see each other, I mean Hokage rivals have to know each other right?" Kiba asks me still with that nervous look in his eyes.

I look forward again. "Sorry Kiba, maybe tomorrow." I say to him and he nods.

I walk towards my apartment and Kiba grabs my wrist before I walk inside the building.

I look at him.

"Why did you say no today?" Kiba asks me. "Was it something I said?" Kiba asks again.

"No, I just don't plan on becoming Hokage, its a dream that I want to stay a dream, besides I can't become Hokage anyway, I'd freak people out and I can't deal with the sleep deprivation." I say to him and Kiba nods unsure and lets go of my wrist. "See ya tomorrow Kiba." I say an walk into my apartment building, I walk up to my apartment, I unlock the door and walk in, I close the door behind me and lock it behind me.

I just spend the rest of the relaxing by myself since Kuro is at the academy.
