I didn't go to the funeral for the Hokage, though I did wear black. I sat on the Hokage mountain and watched in the rain, my hair falling over my shoulder in a water soaked braid. When the funeral was over. I hopped down and stood in front of the grave. "If you meet my brother... Kick his ass for me." I said, with a sad smile. I patted the grave and left.

Later, I was standing next to Kakashi-sensei as we waited for the Akatsuki to finish their meal. "Hey are you two on a date?" Kakashi asked Asuma and Kurenai.

"No. I was getting sweets for Anko." Kurenai defended.

"What about you?" Asuma asked.

"We're waiting on someone." I said.

"Sasuke." Kakashi expanded.

"It's rare to see you waiting for someone, Kakashi-sensei." Sasuke said, walking up. "Allianna."

"Yo duckbutt." I greeted with a smile. He smirked at me with a playful glare.

Asuma and Kurenai noticed that the Akatsuki were gone and I nodded at them. We shushinned to where the pair was by the river and Asuma and Kurenai were surprised.

"Kisame Hoshigaki and Itachi Uchiha. What an honor. I must say, you two have quite a reputation. "

"And who are you?" Kisame asked.

"My name's Allianna Negro. There, now we're all acquainted." I said, landing beside Kurenai.

"Please don't interfere. You will only get killed." I snorted and got glances.

"I doubt that." I said. I charged at Itachi, watching his arms and legs, not looking in his eyes. The fight was between kunai and didn't last long. I made the stupid mistake of looking in his eyes.

My world was in shades of grey. I was strapped to a cross and Itachi stabbed me over and over again. "Well, isn't this familiar." I chuckled and with that, I began laughing. A full body laugh that went on for hours. At least, it went on until I got out of the genjutsu.

When Tsunadae Comes Back

When I woke, I was in a room with Sasuke. He was awake and looking at me seriously. "You went after Itachi, didn't you?" I croaked. He nodded. "Tch. Dumbass."

He glared then smiled. "He really did it on orders." He said softly.

"Told ya." I said. Then frowned. Naruto was stronger then me. I kept making stupid mistakes and he still was stronger. Sakura offered us apples and I knocked them down, looking out at the village. Time to start the act.

Naruto came in and I whipped around. "Naruto."

"Yeah, Ally-chan?"

"Fight me." I said, glaring.

He nodded with a smile. We headed to the roof and I faced him. We stood for a minute before I ran at him with my fist raised. I threw kicks and punches some of which he blocked. He created clones and I easily fended them off, destroying several with a well placed fire jutsu. I extended my claws and covered them with fire, something I had learned while training and Naruto charged a Rasengan. We charged at each other. Sasuke and Sakura raced for the middle to stop us But Kakashi was the actual one to stop us.

"Now, who started training without inviting me?" He asked. I glared before shrugging my arm out of his grip.

"It's none of your business." I growled.

"Allianna, that jutsu was too powerful for a spar."

"Whatever." I snapped, jumping away. I noticed the back of the water tower Naruto had hit and looked at the one I had hit. He was way stronger. I sat at the Hokage mountain and looked out over the village, dropping the act. "Damn that was hard." I muttered. I got trapped to one of the hair spikes by wires.

"Well, well, well. Kakashi-Sensei." I taunted.

"You would leave if I started preaching."

I smirked. "You're right so what's the point?"

"Allianna, what happened today, you weren't acting like yourself." Kakashi said. He then launched into how I should work at teamwork and getting along.

"Are you done?" I demanded.

"Yes." He said.

"Great. Leave me alone." I must have sat on the mountain for hours because it didn't seem long 'til the Sound Four appeared. "Can I help you idiots?" I asked.

"We're the Sound Four." Then they disappeared. They all attacked me in turn, myself easily fending them off. They started preforming jutsu but I still fought them off.

"You're the Pathetic Four." I said. kicking them into each other.They caught me and beat me quickly after that.

"Orochimaru can give you power." My curse mark twinged and I got thrown into a wall. "Are you going to come or no?"

My curse mark spread and covered my face. "Yes." I said, "But not now. When everyone is asleep." The Sound Four left and I headed back to the apartment. I packed my stuff and when Naruto got home he went straight to sleep. I looked at the picture of the five of us on the windowsill. Kakashi had his hands on Sasuke and Naruto's heads and they were glaring at each other. Sakura was kneeling in front and was smiling with her eyes closed. I was on sensei's back and smiling as I poked Naruto and Sasuke's cheeks. I packed the picture before leaving without a goodbye.

I walked towards the gate and was stopped by Sakura. "How did you know?" I asked.

"You've been off and the curse mark was from Orochimaru." She said.

"Tch. Go home Sakura." I said, walking past with my bag. I was about three steps from the gate when she called at me.

"Naruto will never stop trying to find you!" She yelled.

"Maybe he should spend that time doing something useful." I said, before appearing behind her and knocking her out. "Thank you Sakura." I mumbled as I lay her on a bench.

I joined the Sound Four outside and they explained the process of gaining control over the curse mark. I got into the sealed crate and let them close the lid.

———————————-

When I got out, Naruto and Sasuke were fighting someone I had never seen. "I am going to the village." I said, running off. Naruto and Sasuke called for me but I refused to turn. I had to convince them I hated them.

I made it all the way to the Valley of the End before they caught up. "Allianna!" Naruto shouted. I stopped and glanced back coolly.

"What?" I snapped.

"Why are you doing this?" Sasuke demanded.

"For power, isn't it obvious?" I have no interest in staying here in this village where I will not grow at all." I stated, turning to go. Naruto created a clone and the three ran at me. I jumped out of the way and onto Madara's head. "Hn. The two boyfriends trying in vain to stop this. You really are pathetic. I shouldn't waste my time."

"Wear your headband to fight us." Naruto ordered.

"To show we're equals." Sasuke ordered.

I laughed. "You two are nowhere near my equals." I growled, but I slid my headband onto my head anyways. "You are weak."

Naruto charged at me, throwing punches and kicks, sending me closer to the edge of the waterfall. Sasuke shot a Katon jutsu at me, which I countered with one of my own. I ran on the water and pulled on my wolf, my nails extending to claws and my eyes turning red. My fangs extended and I roared. It shook the trees and knocked the two genin back. My curse mark spread, causing flame decals to cover my body. They no longer burned but empowered me. Naruto began to draw on the nine-tails chakra and Sasuke took some of it, fueling himself.

Naruto and Sasuke shot forward, knocking me off the waterfall and taking turns hitting me. I winced with each hit but took them all until I was forced under the water. I shot up using wind bullets and reached for Angel. Aiming carefully, I pulled the trigger several times, never slowing in my attempt to hit the genin. I hit their arms and torsos but only with grazes, as they dodged severer wounds. I holstered Angel and pulled Demon from my back. I charged at them swinging in a wide arc. They both jumped the weapon and pulled kunai out before throwing them at me. The nine-tail's chakra covered their bodies becoming the one tail cloak and my eyes widened before I entered my second stage of my curse mark. My ears turned to points, I grew a tail, my feet grew long nails. My mouth and nose distanced themselves from my face, forming a snout.

The look of shock was amazing. "You think I would start this fight without being able to stop it." I snarled and punched Naruto into Sasuke, following their flying bodies to cut them both up severely. I pounded on them before deeming them sufficient to not be able to follow me.

"Grow strong and hate me. Cultivate that hate and when you are strong enough, come find me again. Until then be glad I spared you on a whim." I stated before dropping my headband beside them. I turned and left, not once glancing back.

Upon reaching the Sound, I was brought to Orochimaru. I quickly bowed and greeted him. "Orochimaru-sama."

"Kekeke. Welcome Alliann-chan. Let your training begin."
