Kid, you did the right thing, those bastards deserved it for what they did anyway

'Who are you?'

I can't really answer that question, not because I don't want to, but because I'm not too sure either, all I know is that I contain power, and that with me, you shall be granted eternal life

'So let me get this straight, you don't know who or what you are, but because of you, I can't die anymore, correct'

Correct, and since I'm technically in your head, I am always with you, which is why I can hear your thoughts

'Well that's not good, there goes all my privacy, but I can't really complain since you saved Hinata, what am I supposed to call you?'

That's up to you kid, I'm inside your head so it's your choice, just know that I am stronger than death itself, and will stop at nothing to keep you intact with yourself

'Thanks I guess? And can you stop calling me kid'

That is what you are...are you not?

'Well yeah I am but I have a name you know'

What might that be

"(Y/N), (Y/N) (L/N)"

Kurenai:What?

'Oh shoot, I said that out loud?'

Yes, yes you did

"Sorry about that Kurenai-sensei, I was thinking about something"

Kurenai:What might that be

"Do you really want to know?'

Kurenai:No, I honestly didn't think I'd even get this far with you

"Oh"

'I KNOW I'll call you Zenno'

That sounds kind of lame don't you think

'Be glad I even gave you a name, I could've called you my underling'

Zenno it is

'So Zenno, let me ask you something, Kurenai told me that my arms were shadows when I killed those ninja, does that mean I am the only physical form you can take?'

That's partially true, you are the only person who's form I can entirely take, but you can also command me to take over someone else either it be to help or destroy them, even though you have the capabilities of that you will also feel the pain they are feeling in exchange for my help

'Does that mean I can't feel physical pain?'

Correct

'Interesting, other question, if I command you to switch to someone else will I be able to die?'

No, you will still be alive, you will just take all the toll of pain until I am able to return to you

'Well it was nice knowing more about you'

You too master (Y/N)

'You don't have to call me master, just call me (Y/N)'

Very well (Y/N)

*3 hours later*

Kurenai:Lord Hokage, the scroll has been delivered, I would also like to talk with you privately

Hokage:Good job team 8, you are now released

As we left I decided to listen to the conversation from outside the door

Hokage:What do you need Kurenai

Kurenai:It's about (Y/N), I would like to talk about something that happened on our way back

I decided not to listen in so my spirits wouldn't be crushed, so I went to Ichiraku ramen

*1 hour later*

Kurenai:(Y/N) go to the training ground at 7, we need to talk

'Yup, there it is'

"Yes Kurenai-sensei"

I went to the training grounds at the designated time and saw the rest of the team there

"So, what did you want to talk about Kurenai-sensei"

Kurenai:I gathered you here today to talk to you about the upcoming Chunin exams, I have recommended all 4 of you to participate, it is not required, but if you wish to take part bring back these papers signed

Kiba:Wouldn't it be unfair since we have more members in our team?

Kurenai:Yes, I talked to Lord Hokage and he agreed to put (Y/N) by himself

"Ouch, didn't see that coming"

Kurenai:You have proven to be the strongest of the team by far, and you will still be able to help out other teams

"That's not so bad"

*With that everyone left home*

Haha, another one bites the dust, next chapter will mostly be about why you are called the fallen prodigy, the chapter after that Zenno will show us what he is capable of during the chunin exams, until then, thanks for reading! (See ya!)
