"This is how you do it Yu-chan. Pour chakra on the soles of your feet and put it on the tree. After that try to pull your feet off the tree and if it detaches quickly that means that the chakra you poured was not enough." I said.
"How will I know if the chakra's too much?" She asked.
"Well, you'll know if it does." I said with a wink.
Today Yuki asked me to train her on some ninja stuff.
She have been annoying me for days now to teach her some Ninja Training that she can do when I'm not around and I'm currently teaching her the Tree Walking exercise.
Yuki has a fluid chakra control since she was able to do the Leaf Sticking exercise for just a few hours.
Right now she's been trying the tree walking exercise and I've caught her on her fall for around the 16th time.
"You can do this Yu-chan." I said.
"It's easy for you to say. You're the genius here." She said.
"Well, no one was there to teach me this stuff Yu-chan so I fell on my face for quite a few times before I learned how to do it properly." I said.
"Can you give me more tips Dais chan." She said.
"Hmmmmmm, try emptying your mind and just focus on the chakra on your feet. Then try to walk like your walking on land." I said.
Yuki then closed her eyes and after a few minutes, she started walking upwards.
She was able to climb the tree all the way to the top. She then opened her eyes and said.
"I did it!" She yelled.
After she yelled she lost her focus and fell for the 17th time.
"Kyaaahhhh!" She fell cutely.
I then caught her again.
"Good job. Just don't lose focus next time." I said.
She then nodded and practiced the exercise again.
After that last fall, she just fell twice and after that, she got used to it.
I told her to go up and down the tree until she gets exhausted.
It's been a few months since the Hokage gave me an indefinite leave from the Anbu. I've grown accustomed to the missions from the Anbu HQ that I've been quite bored of the C-rank missions not to mention the D-rank ones.
"Ne Daisuke, what do you want as a gift for your 9th birthday? I've been trying to find a gift for you but I can't seem to find anything that you will like." She said.
"So you just decided to ask the celebrant what he likes? I even got you a great gift for yours." I said.
It was a surprise that both Yuki and I had the same Birthday. The matron of the orphanage said that her mom died at the Kyubi's Rampage the night Naruto was born.
Her dad was said to be a Konoha Shinobi who died before she was born from a mission.
Tomorrow will be our birthday and I'm happy that she'll finally experience her birthday with a family-like figure.
While we were about to eat breakfast Kakashi appeared in front of us.
"Daisuke the Hokage requests for your presence at the Konoha Hospital. Also, bring Yuki with you." He said.
Both Yuki and I packed our bento and I immediately grabbed her shoulders and Shukuchi to the direction of the Hospital with Kakashi.
When we arrived at the Hospital Kakashi then led us to a room. When we arrived at the room before we enter, I can smell 3 distinct smell for me. My Mom, the Hokage and my sister Hana.
We entered the room after we knocked I then immediately saw my Mom and the Hokage standing. My mom has tears in her eyes and the Hokage has a sad look.
I then tried to find where Hana's scent is coming from. I then looked at the bedside and saw Hana lying there with multiple wounds around her body. There were bandages all over her body and head with blood.
My mind immediately went blank. Yuki rushed Hana nee's bedside and cried her eyes out. Kakashi then grabbed my shoulder tight. I then walked beside my sister.
"Hana nee?" I said in a whisper.
I then felt a tight hug coming from behind.
"Dais chan. The doctor said that she is in a deep coma. She took a job with Izumi and they went to the Land of Rain. Izumi said that they encountered a group of A-rank missing nins that were after Izumi's Sharingan. Hana and Izumi fought for a while but they were outnumbered. Izumi said that if it wasn't for a Ninja that has red clouds on his cloak and black hair, they would've been violated or much worse died." Hana said while hugging me.
"Are all of the Missing Nins dead, Hokage sama." I said softly at the Hokage without turning back.
"Izumi said that before they left, one of the missing-nin was able to escape. The red cloud ninja also left without looking at them." The Hokage said.
"Will Hana nee be healed?" I asked.
"Aisawa said that he have done everything that he could. The only thing that we can do now is to wait for Hana to wake up." Hiruzen said.
I then nodded at his words and said.
"What's the name of the Missing Nin?" I asked.
"Inabikari of the storm release. A missing-nin from Kumogakure." He said.
I then turned around and nodded at him, then I used Shukuchi to find Izumi nee.
"Daisuke!!!!!" Tsume shouted.
"Kakashi, follow him." Hiruzen said while Kakashi left.
....
In the Uchiha Compound.
Izumi is currently sitting in their backyard when he heard someone arrived behind her.
She then jumped and readied for an attack to come that never came.
"Hello, Izumi Nee. Long time no see." I said.
"Dais chan. I-I'm sorry about what happened to your sister.
"No Izumi nee, it's okay. Are you okay?" I asked.
"Yes Dais chan, I was able to evade most of the attacks that came at me but I wasn't able to protect Hana because of that." She said while being downcasted.
"It's okay Izumi nee. I just want to ask you something Izumi nee. Where were you Ambushed?" I asked.
"At the south part of the Land of Rain. Why are you asking?" She asked.
"Nothing Izumi nee. I just wanted to know. I'll leave now Izumi nee so you can rest properly. I'll be back tomorrow to check on you. Bye!" I said while I shunshined away from the Uchiha Compound.
I then went back home and wore my anbu attire to be able to exit the Village. After I was able to exit the gate I then summoned Lycan.
"Awwooooooohhhh!"
"Lycan, head west." I said while I mounted Lycan.
We then made our way to the Land of Rain to track the Missing nins whereabouts.
After a few hours of travel, a familiar chakra appeared on my right side gaining on me fast.
"It's been a while, Itachi nii." I said.
"Ye it's been a while." He said.
"Were you able to track the ninja that escaped your grasp?" I asked.
Yes, the ninja that saved Hana nee and Izumi nee was Itachi nii.
Izumi nee was always being followed by a crow summon that Itachi nii summoned.
The task of the crow was to track any Uchiha members that leave the village and it also warns Itachi and Shisui of the possible danger their clan members will encounter.
"I'm sorry Dais chan. I wasn't able to arrive in time to save your sister from harm." He said.
"It's alright Itachi nii. Were you able to track the missing-nin?" I asked 1 last time.
"No Dais chan. I'm currently infiltrating a secret organization that is why I can't go and track that missing-nin for revenge. But I was able to scratch the ninja. Would his blood be enough?" He asked and I looked at Lycan.
"Yes, Daisuke. I can track it with his blood." He said.
I then nodded at Lycan while he sniffed the blood.
"I'll won't be able to help you on your revenge Dais chan for I'm only a Shadow Clone. Be safe Otouto." He said while he dispelled.
"I will Nii chan. I will!" I said.
Both Lycan and I then tracked the missing-nin.
