The next morning Ryuu rolled out of bed with a yawn as her grey eyes stared out of her long white hair. Stripping out of her pajamas, she showered before dressing and began to cook breakfast. Using the fire element, to cook, she noticed that her flames has a blue tint to them again.

“Is there a reason my flame is blue?” Ryuu asked placing breakfast on the table and knocking on Naruto door.

A few moments later a tired blonde boy excited, as he rubbed his eyes. He walked like he was on autopilot to the table.

“You have nearly mastered the fire element, and a bit of my chakra is merging with your chakra. That is where is the blue coming from.” Hikari answered with a yawn.

Nodding at the reasoning, as Hikari is a giant white wolf with blue tinted flames and sapphire eyes. So if a bit of her chakra is leaking into system would make sense, though it would be extremely small. Even a small bit of her chakra making his body creak under its pressure.

“So, Naruto, do you have anything you are doing today?” Ryuu asked.

“I was thinking about visiting grandpa. It has been a few weeks since I last visited.” Naruto replied.

Nodding, Ryuu replied. “Alright, I am going to visit Izumi than head out to train.”

“But your always training.” Naruto groaned.

“Being a shinobi is dangerous where one can die at any point in a mission if their not careful. I rather not be one of the few who slacks on training and wish they haven’t before they died.” Ryuu replied making Naruto grimace at the thought of losing Ryuu.

“Alright.” Naruto lowered his head.

“When you become a shinobi in a few years, we can train together if you like.” Ryuu smiled rubbing the blondes head.

“Why can’t you train me now?” Naruto pouted as he tried fixing his hair.

“You know the laws and the deal with the Third. No active shinobi or kunoichi can train a civilian without the Hokage permission. However that won’t be granted as your not even four and two years from joining the academy.” Ryuu gave a small smile.

“There also a promise where you can’t train me outside body conditioning whatever that is until I join.” Naruto grumbled as they went through this multiple times.

Giving him an eye smile, they ate while Naruto wondered how she ate through the mask. It was a sad day when Naruto learned that he wasn’t immune to his female looks. While it was only eyes lingering, Ryuu sighed as Naruto hasn’t built up much of an immunity to it.

Arriving at the training field after a failed attempted to visit Izumi. She was currently resting with a Uchiha guard near the door. While Ryuu knew that the village was being a bit hard on the Uchiha clan it couldn’t be that bad. However, while walking out, he felt the presence of a couple emotionless dolls.

“It seems the Uchiha situation in deteriationing.” Hikari said.

“I believe it's the work of the emotionless dolls and their master. Whatever their goal is it isn’t something good.” Ryuu replied as nothing can be done about it yet. She neither had proof something off or influence to get it investigated.

“Well worrying about them is a waste of time. You just need to focus on training for the time being.” Hikari said making Ryuu clench her fist.

“Right.” Ryuu agreed before removing her sweatshirt and shoes.

Wearing a dark blue shirt with chain mesh overtop and black pants, Ryuu stood away a distant away. Quickly popping a couple of clones into existence, to do chakra training or finishing up the fire jutsus.

“Alright, for this stage, as I said before. You need to ignite the fire elements in the air around you.” Hikari explained in simple terms.

Taking a deep breath, Ryuu began to focus on the space around her. Feeling a slight pull, she released a tiny bit of her chakra. Opening her eyes she watched as the space around her exploded into a large fire tornado. Which luckily didn’t grow to big to drag attention as it would be awkward.

“Well, you got it, but try not releasing so much fire chakra directly from your skin.” Hikari roared in laughter.

Ryuu while physically unharmed, but didn’t have a thread of clothes revealing her flawless body to the world. A small blushed forming, as she walked over to her sweatshirt and pulled out her training scroll. Quickly redressing, as she thought this might happen which why she brought spares.

Calming herself back down, Ryuu redid it a bit faster and felt the pull. However this time she made sure to ignite it a bit further from her body. While her clothes heated up a bit, she was still fully clothed. Which was great, as she didn’t have a hobby of being naked in the training fields.

“Alright, just keep practicing until you can do it in less than three seconds, which should take an hour at most.” Hikari said receiving a nod.

For the next hour, Ryuu managed to bring the time down and watched as the flames turned completely light blue. The destruction of her flames reached new heights as the grass burned away as well lowering chakra cost. Nodding at her success, Ryuu threw a couple shadow punches with flames appearing.

“Great, you have mastered the elemental training for fire. Your chakra has also reached high chunin levels. Though you are still mid jonin in density.” Hikari suddenly said making Ryuu jump a bit.

“What next the next element you think I should study?” Ryuu asked since it was a couple hours before noon.

“I think either wind or earth. Wind will be able to increase your flames destructiveness and increase the sharpness of your kunai. For Earth it could increase your defensive jutsu and hardness of your bo staff.” Hikari explained.

Thinking about it the two options, Ryuu leaned more towards wind as she hasn’t had a lot of use of a bo staff. While she has a clone working on it forms, she doesn’t have much experience. Deciding on her choice she will do the other one next.

“I choose wind than earth afterwards.” Ryuu said.

“Very well. To begin mastering wind, you must cut the leaf in half using wind chakra.” Hikari explained as Ryuu popped a few more clones.

“Alright let's get started.” Ryuu said as her clone air pumped in agreement.

===

“Umm, Ryuu it alright not to get the leaf cut in a few hours.” Hikari attempted to comfort Ryuu.

A few hours went by since she mastered the fire transformation and began on wind. However, since she began, Ryuu missed out on lunch and most of the afternoon. All she got for progress was a small notch out of the leaf. Even that was part was where she has been attempting to cut it for the last few hours.

“Can you give me an example or an idea. I haven’t seen anyone using wind element in my life.” Ryuu said.

Nodding to her host words, Hikari had to agree. “Hmm, I will say either attempted to grind the wind against each other or rotate extremely fast. To give you practice I will teach you the rasengan. I believe it was made by the fourth, but it is extremely useful to train chakra shaping and chakra control.”

“Won’t others question where I learned it?” Ryuu asked as that would bring question she doesn’t want.

“Well, just use it as a chakra control exercise. Believe it or not it was created years ago like nearly six hundred but lost to time.” Hikari explained with a shrug.

“What do I need?” Ryuu asked.

“Water balloons, quite a few of them. What you will be doing with it is learning to rotate your chakra in multiple directions at once. After that there are a few more steps but rotation is where what we are focused on at the moment.” Hikari explained.

“Alright, we will start tomorrow.” Ryuu said before her stomach rumbled.

Laughing Ryuu headed back to her apartment.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In a far off land, in a village known as Kumogakure.

Sitting in front of a waterfall a young girl about twelve or thirteen, was having an internal struggle. Blue flames popped into existence around her, as her finger nails lengthen and a red cloak surrounded her.

“Nibi what are you doing?” She yelled.

“Someone has achieved something that hasn’t been seen in centuries, well unless you have me sealed inside. If so, you need to meet this person for your training, but they are around Konohagakure.” Nibi shouted before thinking. To achieve one of the highest fire mastery, I barely felt the wave alerting there a new fire master.

“Umm, incase you forgot, both of our villages are in high tension with each other. Just recently some of the higher ups nearly started a war between us.” The girl said.

“Don’t care, we need to find out who it is. The energy feel kind of young so maybe use the chance for a marriage alliance between the two villages.” Nibi said basically demanding her to go find the person.

“But my friends are here, and I am only twelve.” The girl said.

“I am not telling you to get married, but use it as an excuse. We need to meet with the one who managed to master the fire element.” Nibi said making her host sigh.

“I will try, but the chunin exams are being held here in a month. If they are genin than there is a chance they will attend.” was all the girl said.
