Hokage's Funeral :( [EDITED]

*Ayumi's POV*

I wore my black kimono dress and step outside. It's raining just like in my visions. I walk slowly towards the funeral. I didn't bring my umbrella to hide my tears. I finally came and saw Konohamaru crying. I went beside him and he hug me. I started to cry too. Gramps is the first person who I met and adopt me. He's the one who take care of me and treat me as his granddaughter. I maybe stubborn but he do have a patience to calmly stop me. Or maybe stopping me and Asuma-kun make him very angry.

After the ceremony, they put white roses on top of his tomb. Me and Konohamaru went to his tomb and place the white rose.

Gramps, thank you for everything. Thank you for taking care of me. I promise to take care of Konohamaru no matter what. I'll be stronger for you. I'm sorry for being stubborn at all times. I'll never stop taking care of your family and I promise to do my best to protect them.

I saw Gramps standing beside his tomb smiling at me. I kneel down and started to cry hard.

"I'm sorry!! It's my fault why I didn't protect you against him. I'm so sorry!!" I cried hardly as Asuma-kun went beside me trying to comfort me.

*Its not your fault. Stop saying that.* Gramps said and I cried more.

"I should have stop him before anything happens!!"

"Let's go home." Asuma said and I shook my head.

*I want to here your beautiful voice. I think this is the last time we'll meet.* He said and I wipe my tears away.

Goodbye to youGoodbye to everything I thought I knewYou were the one I lovedThe one thing that I tried to hold on to

I saw Gramps's soul climb up to the heaven. Now, he's with dad, mom and Yuusuke. I cried then stayed for a while.

I reach for my pocket and saw the key that gramps gave me. I walk back in our home and went to his room. I saw the box and open its lock. I looked at it and saw the half dragon piece.

I connected the dragon pendant as it glows blue. 

Finally... Thank you Hokage-sama.

*Asuma's POV*

It's been a week since dad's funeral. All things came back to normal. Konohamaru seems fine but Ayumi... She's really devastated. She just lock herself in her room. She didn't even come down to eat. She's staying in her room for 1 week. Last night, I heard her crying softly and muttering something which I can't hear.

I was walking on the streets of Konoha when I saw Kakashi, Gai and Kurenai.

"How was your day?" Kurenai asked.

"It's fine. I'm a little move on. Where are your students?"

"Naruto went along with Jiraiya for getting the new Hokage. Sasuke and Sakura I don't know where they are. And Ayumi... I haven't seen her for a week." Kakashi said and I went silent. "Is there anything wrong?"

"Ayumi is in her room lock up for a week. She even didn't eat. She's just in her room crying." I said sadly.

"She's really devastated in the Hokage's death." Gai said.

"She thought it was her fault." -Kakashi. I nodded while leaning on the wall.

"You think she'll be alright?"

"I think so. She'll move on unless someone will talk to her." Kurenai said.

"Naruto is her closest friend but he's not around." I said while thinking.

"Hinata is her best friend but I think she can't talk to her." Kakashi said.

"What about Sasuke?" I asked.

"I don't know. But I do believe Sasuke can help. He likes Ayumi." Kakashi said. I saw Kiba running to our direction. He went in front of Kurenai panting heavily.

"What do you need?" Kurenai asked.

"Have you seen Ayumi around?" Kiba asked until something hit my mind.

"Why do you need to see her?" I asked.

"I saw her in the funeral. She's destroyed. I just want to cheer her up." He said as the dog bark.

"She do really destroyed." Kakashi said.

"She's in the house on her room lock up. She haven't eaten for a week." I said and he nodded. He dash of to our house and Kurenai laugh.

"I have a feeling that Kiba likes Ayumi." Kurenai said and we all nodded in agreement.

"You think, Kiba can make Ayumi better?" Gai asked.

"Maybe no maybe yes." Kakashi said. I felt two huge chakras near the forest. I look at them and they nodded. We dash to the forest until we saw a black cloak.... The Akatsuki.

*Kiba's POV*

I saw Ayumi inside her room sad. I jump on the roof and knock on her window. She gasped in frightened and sigh in relief. She open the window so I can get in.

"Asuma said you're not yet eating for a week." I said and she nodded sadly. I hug her and I felt her gasped.

"You have to eat. You'll be sick if you didn't eat." I release the hug and look at her.

"I'm just depressed of losing someone.... again." She said sadly.

"You have to always think positive. Don't be sad. You still have your friends." I said trying to cheer her up. And the only thing everyone is waiting for.......... She smiled again. She hug me and start to whimper.

"Thank you, Kiba!!" She cried and I laugh.

"My Yumi-chan is back." I said and she laugh softly.

"I'm hungry!! Wanna get ramen?" She asked and I nodded. We both jump on the window and run straight to the ramen shop. I look at her and she was in deep thoughts.

"Are you okay?" I asked and she nodded.

"I'm just thinking of something." She said.

*Ayumi's POV*

I didn't expect Kiba to cheer me up that fast. We are currently in Ramen Shop when I felt 2 huge chakras. I felt one familiar and I think it's Itachi. But what is he doing here?

We finish eating and bid goodbye with each other. I run fast and follow the chakra of Itachi. While getting near I felt 5 more chakras. I cut off my chakra and hid in the trees. I saw Kakashi-Sensei, Asuma-kun, Kurenai-chan and Gai along with Itachi and the shark guy. The shark guy.... I think he's one of the seven swordsman of the mist. He have the samehada which can drain your chakra. He's name is Kisame Hoshigaki I think?

Sensei is so dumb that he caught in Itachi's genjutsu. Itachi use Amaterasu around them. I have no choice but to help. I activate my Amaterasu and let the black fire disappear. The Jounins gasped along with Kisame.

"Who did that?" Kisame asked.

"Someone is watching us." Itachi said while looking in my direction. He throw a kunai in me and I dodge it quickly. I'm still hidden and make hand signs.

Mist are form in their place until it became thick.

"Mist? Are there any mist ninjas in leaf village?" Kisame thought loud. I sneak behind his back and kick him on his treasure. He groaned in pain as I use my water teleportation to transport on the tree. I went beside Itachi and poke his arms.

"Why are you here?" I whispered.

"We are looking for the Kyuubi." Itachi said and I gasped.

"Meaning, you are looking for Naruto." I said slowly and he nodded. The mist started to disappear as I teleport behind the Jounins.

"Itachi, who do you think did that!!??" Kisame asked.

"The what?"

"Someone kick me!!!"

"Ask the girl on that tree." Itachi said pointing at me. Everyone look at me while I just leaning on the tree trunk

"Ayumi!!" The Jounins except Sensei sighed in relief.

"You bring Sensei home. I'll handle them." I said.

"But you might get hurt!!" Asuma-kun argued.

"I know what to do, just go!!" I said and they nodded. They disappeared from the view and I look at them intently.

"You're going to stop us you brat?" Kisame asked and I rolled my eyes.

"You shut up Kisame or kick your sorry @ss again!!" I spat out.

"H-How did you know my name!!??" He asked.

"Come on, your from hidden mist and you absolutely don't know me!!??" I said while pointing at myself.

"You look familiar but I don't know who you are!!" Kisame shouted and I face palm.

"Anyways, don't ya ever touch Naruto!!" I put my right hand on my waist.

"How dare you to tell us that!!" Kisame said angrily as he swung his samehada to me. The samehada stop and Kisame look at it with confusion.

"Samehada knows me how about you?" I asked and anger boiled him.

"Who are you!!??" Kisame asked.

"OMG, Kisame!! For how many time we saw each other when I was freaking child in the hidden mist along with Yagura!!!" I exclaimed and his eyes widened in realization.

"Ayumi?"

"Now you know so stop finding Naruto." I said.

"Nope, it's our mission." Kisame said.

"Fight me first." I said simply which he smirked.

"Okay, how about you Itachi?"

"I'll just watch." He said and sat on the branch. Me and Kisame both sighed and went on my fighting stance. He swung his sword but I dodge it easily. I just need to move away around the samehada's eating field (just like magnetic field lol :D) so my chakra will not be eaten. I think of jutsus that will fit into him.

'You're always dumb as ever. You can only use water and ice jutsus.' Hikari said and I facepalmed. Yeaah right. Too smart for me.

'Whatever. I thought Kishimoto are smart.' He muttered but I ignored him. I make hand signs and thrust my palms forward.

"Water Style: Five Hungry sharks jutsu!" Five sharks came towards Kisame. One hit him and make his right arm bleed.

"Smart as always." Kisame said and I smirked. I make hand signs again and I hope he like it. "Water style: Draining water jutsu!!" Water splattered all over Kisame which he didn't dodge. "What happen?" Kisame asked boastfully and I rolled my eyes.

"Idiot. You are from the hidden mist then you don't know what's that jutsu? It's just that you're chakra is going to be drained." I said as his eyes widened in realization.

"I forgot 'bout that." He muttered but I heard it. Itachi went beside him.

"Let's go we have no time." He said and Kisame nodded. I felt his chakra grow weak as they disappeared. I run back at the Konoha as I felt the Jounins in Sensei's house. I rushed and I open the door. Sensei is lying on the sofa and the three Jounins look at me.

"Did you got hurt?" Asuma asked and I shook my head.

"What did you do?" Kurenai asked.

"We have a little fight with the shark and they disappeared going from Naruto." I explained. I look at Sensei and sighed. "Sensei needs to be careful in Uchiha's genjutsu. Tsk. Carelessness leads to harmfulness." I scoffed. I felt Sasuke's chakra coming here and I was right. He's really going here.

"Why is Sensei lying on the sofa and why are there Jounins and Ayumi here?" Sasuke asked and I just shrugged my shoulders. Out of nowhere, a Jounin bursted on the door.

"Is it true that Itachi Uchiha is in the village?" The Jounin asked as Sasuke's eyes widened. He run out of the room and I sighed.

"WTF, what did you do!!?? Told you, carelessness leads to harmfulness." I said and use my Water Teleportation to teleport fast at Naruto.

I'm now in front of the gates of the village and start to find the Kyuubi's chakra. Yeah, the Kyuubi's because Hikari's chakra can pick up any tailed beasts chakra. I finally felt his chakra and I felt Kisame and Itachi's chakra too. I rushed at the hotel where Naruto is. While running, I felt Sasuke's chakra around too. I pick Sasuke's chakra first. I saw Sasuke's figure running so I pick up my pace until I was beside him.

"I know where are they." I said and he gasped.

"Where?"

"If you can pick up my pace then we can get it there fast but for now.." I bit my thumb and make hand signs. "Summoning Jutsu!!" Saki appeared beside me running along. Saki is my fastest wolf then next is Sparks. Saki is up to my waist and 7 feet length. "Saki, carry Sasuke up so we can be fast." I ordered and she nodded. She carry Sasuke at her back and started to run fast as me. We reach the hotel in no time and let Saki disappeared. We run fast in the room. Sasuke slam the door open as he look at Itachi angrily.

"Itachi Uchiha." Sasuke muttered.

"Hey Itachi, that kid looks like you!!" Kisame said. I went beside him and punch his head hard.

"That's his brother!! Why are you grown to be an obviously idiot!!??" I crossed my arms and he rolled his eyes.

"I hate you!! You ate my chakra!!"

"Correction, get not ate. What do you think of me? Chakra eating monster sh*t?" I asked and he sweatdropped.

"I remember one akatsuki member from you." He sighed.

We cut off our conversation when Sasuke was trap in a genjutsu. He's badly injured. I went beside Sasuke and heal his injuries. While healing him, I felt Jiraiya-Sensei's chakra. I don't care because I know he's gonna help.

Hey Hikari, I'm wondering why penguins don't fly but they are birds?

'Ayumi... Penguins swim not fly. It's really suited in an icy place.'

Did you see an owl swim?

'Stop asking nonsense questions!!' Hikari sighed.

Do Kiwi birds fly?

'The word of the day is idiot... Kiwi birds doesn't have wings.' Hikari said with a tone of irritation.

Are unicorns and Pegasus true?

'You'll stop asking or eat you?' Hikari asked and I went silent.

Are there llamas on rainbow?

'Shut up and look at your surroundings.' I did what Hikari said. I saw a huge toad and a big hole on the wall. Gai is carrying Sasuke while talking to Jiraiya-Sensei.

"Huh? Sensei?" I said slowly as Jiraiya look at me.

"You've gotten taller Ayumi!! I miss you!!" Sensei was about to hug me when I stop him.

"No Pervs near me." I said and he sweatdropped. Naruto look at us with confusion.

"Naruto, Jiraiya-Sensei is my Sensei when I was little. I met him in the borders of Leaf Village." I said and he nodded.

"Jiraiya-Sensei, why are you with Naruto?" I asked.

"We have a mission and training."

"What's the mission??"

"We are going to get the 5th Hokage." He explained and I nodded.

"I have to go. Gai didn't wait for me." I pouted and he laugh.

"You can come with us. I need your help though. I know the new Hokage can't be drag back easily." Sensei said.

"I know you can do it and I have a feeling that this Hokage is a she!!" I guess and he nodded.

"Is she strong?" I asked.

"Yup." Sensei nodded.

"Is she scary?"

"Yup."

"Is she a gambler?"

"Yup."

"So that means you're a perv?"

"Yup......... Wait... NO!!!" I laugh heartedly.

"Hahahahahahahahha!!!!!!! You admitted it!!" I tease and Naruto laugh. Sensei sighed as he put his right hand on his forehead. Naruto stop laughing and I look at a Sensei seriously.

"Anyways, good luck for finding her and take care." I said and disappear from their view. I run back in Konoha while questions in my mind are not yet answered. But one question I know is..... Who is the 5th Hokage?
