No one's POV

Soon, they all arrived at Tazuna's house. Umiko literally dropped Kakashi on the floor and plopped down on the couch.

"G'night." She muttered.

"Wait! Umiko, I thought you were-" Sakura said.

"I'll tell you guys later. Right now I'm tired and sensei would probably wanted to hear it too." Before anyone would respond, she was already snoring on the couch.

--

"Wake up!" A voice said.

Umiko groaned and rolled the other way. "5 more minutes..."

Then, Kakashi, the person who was trying to wake her up, got an idea "Lightning style! Lightning bla-"

Umiko shot up and glared at Kakashi "ARE YOU CRAZY?! LIGHTNING STYLE YOUR STUDENT!" She boomed.

Then, she noticed that she was covered in bandages, everywhere. "Who bandaged me?"

"Sakura."

She sighed in releif but heard Kakashi say in a whisper voice, "I really wanted to do it but I was asleep."

Umiko fumed, her face red with a tick mark "HENTAI!!" She screamed and kicked him so hard, he came tumbling out the room and into the living where everyone was at.

They blinked, and blinked.

"Sensei, what happened to you?" Naruto questioned.

"Umiko...awake..." Just then Umiko came into the room.

"Good morning." She stated casually.

Everyone in the room sweatdropped.

"Ok. Everyone get settled 'cuz this is gonna be a long story." Umiko announced.

--

Everyone gathered around Umiko on the couch, waiting for her to talk.

"Alright. Where do I begin? Well, I am the twelve tailed jinchuuriki." Everyone gasped.

"Ho-"

Umiko held up a hand. "Questions till the end."

"The twelve tailed is in the form of a water dragon. It was sealed inside me ever since I was born and it also blind. Out of all the bijuus, the twelve tailed is the strongest and has a lot more chakra than all of them. The onubi (12 twelved) is also blind. When, my clan was still alive, they said that fate has brought us together because it is a water dragon and my name means child of the sea and my main element is water."

"What was your clan's name?" Kakashi asked.

Umiko took a deep breath. "The Mikami clan."

He widen his eyes "Y-You mean..."

Naruto looked confused.

"Yes. The clan that has all different kind of kekkei genkais." Umiko said.

Kakashi gasped and Naruto still looked confused. "Um...what?"

"Different kind of kekkei genkais? What does that mean?" Sakura asked.

"It means what it sounds like. So far, I only unlocked 2. Crystal style and my eyes." Umiko said.

"What about your eyes?" Tazuna asked.

Umiko sighed. "This." She ripped off her bandages and looked towards Tazuna's direction, putting a tiny bit of chakra in it but not to much.

Tazuna gasped and Umiko put her bandages back on and looked at Kakashi.

"So, sensei, what we gonna do next?"

"Training. Zabuza is still alive." He said.

--

Team 7 stood in the forest ready to train.

"So, now the training begins!" Kakashi said on crutches. "So...before that, let me explain chakra power for a ninja, from the basics."

Umiko zoned out, not bothered to listen to Sakura explaining about chakra.

"Umiko! Please demonstrate." Kakashi said.

Umiko stopped zoning out and looked at Kakashi with a sheepish smile. "Ehh...what?"

He sweatdropped. "Climb the tree without using your hands."

She huffed. "Fine."

She made a hand sign and concentrated the chakra to her feet. When, she was done, she walked towards a tree. Placing a foot on the wood, she brought her other foot up and started to climb up the tree.

The three stared at her in awe and she stopped at the top. She purposely fell backwards and Sakura and Naruto started to scream and heard Sasuke gasp.

As soon she was near the branch, she placed her feet under it so she was dangling upside down.

"Geez, Umiko! You almost gave me a heart attack!" Sakura yelled.

"You could've died!" Naruto whined.

Umiko smiled sheepishly and fell down, landing gracefully on her feet.

"Alright. You guys try." Kakashi threw a kunai each at their feet. "Use that kunai to put a mark at the spot where you can climb up to under your own strength now."

And with that they started to climb up the trees.

Umiko sighed and sat on a rock looked up at the sky. Without knowing, she fell asleep.

--

"What the hell is wrong with you?!" Umiko woke up and stretched before sitting up. "Don't interfere me while I'm trying to concentrate!"

She stood up slightly confused to what was going on.

"U...Uh...Well..." This caught her attention. Was the Uchiha Sasuke stuttering??

She felt shyness and heat running off him and smirked.

"W-When you were asking for advice from Sakura...what did she say to you?" He turned away with a faint blush.

"Is the Uchiha Sasuke blushing and asking for advice?" Umiko snickered crossing her arms as she leaned against a tree.

Naruto looked at her as Sasuke glared.

Everyone sat around the table except for Tsunami who was washing the dishes.

Sasuke and Naruto were having a eating contest and Umiko was eating as fast as them but she was just hungry as everyone else ate normally.

"My, my! This is fun! We haven't have a lot of guests we've had a meal in a long time!" Tazuna yelled.

Naruto, Umiko, and Sasuke both held their bowls up. "Seconds, please!" They all said.

Sasuke and Naruto glared at each other and you could see the lightning across from each other.

Suddenly, they had a strange feeling in their stomach and both threw up on the floor.

Umiko snickered and continued eating her second bowl "Idiots." She muttered.

"Don't eat to much if you're going to puke!" Sakura yelled with a tick mark.

"No, I'll eat." Sasuke wiped his mouth.

"I'll have to meet even if it means enduring. I have to get as strong as possible, so..." Naruto said.

Kakashi nodded his head. "But vomiting is different."

Everybody drank their tea as Sakura got up and walked towards the picture frame on the wall. "Excuse me, why is there a torn picture hanging here?"

Tazuna, Tsunami, and Inari froze and it became gloomy. "Inari was looking at this all through dinner. This torn part looks like someone who was in the picture was deliberately torn off."

"It's my husband..." Tsunami said sadly.

"He's a man once called a hero of this town..." Tazuna said.

Inari got up from his chair, and ran out the room.

"Inari! Wheree are you going!" Tsunami followed him "Dad, I told you not to talk about him in front of Inari!" She yelled and ran out.

Tazuna sniffled. He then started to explain how Inari's father, Kaiza, was a hero called in the town but he was sadly killed by Gato in front of everyone.

'Konoyaro! How could you do that! I'll kill you!' Umiko clenched her fist.

Naruto got up and tried to walk but tripped.

"What're you doing Naruto...?" Sakura asked.

"You've had enough training for today." Kakashi warned.

"I'm gonna prove it.." He slowly got up "I'm gonna prove that heroes are real..."

'Naru-kun...' Umiko worried.

--

After dinner, Umiko walked to Inari's room and saw him sitting outside crying. She quietly walked out and sat down next to him, letting her feet dip into the cool water. It was a nice silence at first. None if them speaking as they stared into the calming waves of the ocean.

"What are you doing here?" Inari sniffled.

"Inari," Umiko said softly "You're not the only one who feels alone."

Inari wiped his tears "Be quiet! You don't know what it's like to feel lonely!"

She sighed "You know, everyone feels lonely. Even Naruto. He's the person I know that has felt the most pain. When he was little, before he beacme a ninja, he was always ignore. For 13 years,"

Inari widen his eyes.

"Nobody talked to him, no kids would play with him. Everyday, he would be called names. Yet, he always has that bright smile that could brighten up your day. He has a lot of pride. That's why, he's my best friends." She smiled sadly.

'Just like Nikara' She thought sadly.

"Let me show you something." She stood up and Inari followed "When I was traveling, trying to find a village. I stumbled across the land of Waves, and met your father, Kaiza." Inari gasped quietly.

"He save me from a bunch of bullies, but I didn't fight back since I had no energy. He stopped them and told me if I ever met you in the future, I would show you this." She made a few handsigns "Realease!" And slammed her hands on the floor.

Norhing happend at first, but then a Kaiza's body showed up, like a projector. Inari had his wide eyes and mouth agaped as tears flowed down his eyes like a waterfall "D-Dad...?"

Kaiza smiled at him "You're doing great Inari. Keep up the good work." And he vanished.

Umiko smiled at him and ruffled his hair "That's all I wanted to say." And with that, she walked away.

--

"Psst! Umiko!" Umiko heard and found Naruto's scent.

"Naruto? What are you doing up so early?" She yawned.

"Wanna train?"

She smiled "Sure!" They soon got ready and headed to the forest to train.
