I wake up from my deep and comfortable slumber to the smell of meat. Not just any meat though. This meat was so tender and delicious it needs to be severed and praised. It is the top meat, the queen bee, it is... BACON!

I shuffle my way to the kitchen where Kakashi is expertly frying my bacon and preparing to scramble my eggs. I know these are mine because well I just do!
"This isn't for you, you know."
"WHAT!"
"As I just said Rin 'this isn't for you' stupid"
"Someone's on their period"
"I see someone has their ears out"
"Tushae, but deal with it I deserve the right to walk around like this in the comfort of our home" I say whilst crossing my arms putting a fake irritated expression on my face and turning around.
5...4..3..2..1
"I'm sorry Ringo, I didn't mean to offend you. Please forgive me"
"You're so stupid Kakashi! I'm not mad just joking. I took no offence to what you said what so ever" I giggled all the way through.
"You're mean, anyway I'm off on a mission don't get into too much trouble whilst I'm gone alright"
"Yeah, sure, don't worry I'm gonna be inside the village walls at all times" I wave to him as he exits the door but stops.
"Oh and make some breakfast for yourself" my face dropped. He always made my breakfast for me. I can't cook to save my life! I guess I'm going to live off of coco pops for the next few days.

***30 MINUTES LATER***

I'm all ready to begin the day. After looking at the clock I notice I have 5 hours before I pick up the files from Tsunade. So decide to go for a walk around the village. Maybe I'll bump into Konohamaru. I was his baby siter before the 3rd hokage agreed with me that I should leave to train myself and regain control of my beast. We were really close before I left. There are 2 things he could do when he sees me. They are...
1) Act the same way as Kakashi,
2) Open a tin of whoop ass and lash out on me.
Either way I really do want to see him. I miss the little guy. I heared that him and Naruto have been getting along nicely and that they've even been training together. I'm happy for him. It sounds like he's going to become a great shinnobi one day.
Ugh. These streets are boring me but I promised not to go out into the forest till Kakashi comes back. That's it from now on I'm not making anymore promises like that!
Oh well nothing to do might aswell take a nap somewhere, but where? There aren't many good places to nap since it's mostly alleyways. I think I'll just take a nap in one of the hokages faces. If I'm not mistaken I should be able to get in between the rock hair of either the 3rd or 4th hokage. Either one will do. I just need a bit of a nap.
So I decide to take a shortcut by jumping on the roofs of the village. It only takes me 5 minutes to arrive at my destination. The hard part is getting there. I won't bore you with the details on me getting up there or how my nap went. However, I can tell you now I have literally 2 minutes to get to the hokages office! How did I manage to sleep so long!?
This is not a time for questions! This is a time to run! I release chakra in the palms of my hands as I run with them behind me, with each hand having chakra spinning the opposite direction to the other. I get there in record time and don't even bother with the door anymore. I just slam it to the floor with my leg just as the clock strikes 1.
Lady Tsunade just looks shocked as she's eating her dumplings. A Jounin also enters the office after I do carrying 3 large document boxes.
"These are the documents you ordered lady Tsunade. Where would you like me to put them for you?" Her still shocked expression does not interfere with her words.
"They are for her" clearly pointing at me the Jounin hands them to me. Yet he himself also looks surprised, so I palace the boxes on the floor and yell at them to know what's going on. "WHY THE HELL ARE YOU STARING AT ME FOR?" Tsunade just points to her ears and I realise what she means. I'm scared. Not just scared but absolutely petrified of what people will think of me. I hide my ears and cower behind the tower of boxes. The thing is that I trust lady Tsunade but I don't know what to think of this Jonin. I don't know him. For all I know he will blab my secret to the whole village and they will chase me out of the here. I will have no other choice but to become a rouge ninja. Someone touches my shoulder and I flinch away from them. I'm scared. They reach for me again but this time they also speak. "Ringo, it's okay, you don't have to hide. We will protect you. We won't judge you. We won't hurt you" the voice is softer than the owners usual tone but I know it's Tsunade. She reaches for my hands and slowly lowers them to my side. My eyes are closed as she gently strokes my hair, resulting in me purring. "Do not worry it will be okay. You shouldn't have to hide your ears but if it is what you want then please just do what you think is right for you,"
I realised what had finally happened and I stood up so quickly it made everyone quite surprised. I bowed infromt of Tsunade and apologised. "Please forgive me lady hokage, I do not know what came over me. I apologise you had to comfort me like that aswell." whilst I was blushing mad from embarrassment she was laughing her head off.
"Apologise?-Apologise for-what? It-it isn't your fault- oh god!"
"I will take the documents and go now," I had to get out of here as soon as possible. I felt humiliated. As I picked up the boxes and left through the door I could still hear her laughing. Well at least I put a smile on someone's face today. Just as I was about to walk out of the building I remembered my hood. I was so glad no one else was in the building. I put the boxes down for a moment to put it back on when I get a pain in my in my stomach. I think it's the demon. My seal is burning and from it I collapse on the floor and put myself in the recovery position. I can feel my eyes turning orange and my hair getting longer. My gumms begin to hurt and become numb for my fangs to become larger. I can also feel my nails elongating as I dig them into the floor. If I don't stop the transformation before my tail pops out I'm going to end up making my power known. So I scream for help before anything else can happen to me and not long after I hear the thudding of three pairs of footsteps, coming closser and closser. Oh no it's too late. My tail has almost elongated fully. Before I pass out I feel sand cover my body whilst the snow lepored takes over it.

*** 3 days later ***

I can't feel any part of my body. I can't move at all! No matter how hard I try to I can't even open my eyes! Yet I can feel cool metal on my wrists. They're probably shackles to stop me from moving if suddenly I became mobile. I can only muster enough strength to move my tongue which results in me finding out I'm in dying need of water and that my fangs are no longer there. They have been reduced to human sized k-nines. It feels like my hands are hanging above my head. How the hell did I end up in this state? If the demon took over it must mean they had to detain me, but I'm sure I could smell another Jinjuroki before I passed out and the beast awakened. It's seams that my head was resting on my fore arm but is now luling forward. I can hear someone walking down what sounds like stone steps. And by the pitch and how it echos it's someone in heals. My guess it's Tsunade but it appears someone else is with her. It sounds like someone in ninja sandles. Well that narrows it down Ringo! Well I guess I'll find out soon enough. I seam to be regaining strength which means I should be able to move around or at least open my eyes pretty soon. The two pairs of footsteps stop at what I'm guessing is the door to this place before unlocking many locks. I can tell because each one crashes to the floor and makes an echo louder and longer than the last. That is until it opens and a loud shriek escapes the hinges.
"Looks like your awake Ringo. Come on ill get you out of those cuffs and we can go home" all I manage to do is make a 'ugh' sound that really hurts me I don't think I'll be able to move for a while. I still wonder what my brother is doing here. I don't feel like questioning him now, and even if I did I wouldn't have been able to. I'm gonna have to get every last detail of what happened when I regain my strength. I feel my arms droop to my sides as I fall forwards but my brother catches me and picks me up bridal style. Before I pass out again I hear Kakashi whisper "I'm glad he was there to save you," to that I close my eyes with the thought of...who?
