* a flash back occurs, we see a younger looking Konko with a litter akiza in his arms*

Konko holds a young akiza on his lap and pets her dark hair " daddy daddy im gonna be a great shinobi like you and uncle dedara one day " the young akiza squeals as konko smiles " oh im sure you will sweetheart " he smiles as he places a small kiss on her head " hehe aww daddy look! Look! " her eyes shift to shaningan form " oh my thats amzing youve unlocked your shanigan already " akiza giggles and hugs her fathers stomach " just like daddy ! ". The paper door near the bedroom opens and a young man with long blonde hair walks in " hey hey guess who came to visit " konko smiled as akiza jumps off his lap and runs to the man " uncle dedara! " she hugs his waist as the man picks her up " hey hey sweet cheeks " akiza giggles as he holds up his hands " I made you something " , akiza eyes lit up " what what !? " dedara giggles and out of his hand comes a small clay bird " ta- da " akiza claps " oh my gosh thank you! " she hugs his neck and smiles as konko stands " dedara remember what happen last time you gave her a suclpture ? " konko looks into the boys eyes as dedara giggles " yeah yeah...thats why this is regular clay " konko smiles again " good " akiza looks at her father and shows him the bird" daddy look look " konko holds it and giggles " very nice...very nice".

Meanwhile akiza holds her fathers hand his eye now exposed and only a bleeding socket is left " I...im sorry about everything...my sweet...sweet akiza....for your mother...for your sister and for you... " his other eye tears up as akizas also does " daddy..I...im sorry too " she hugs him amd crys as he sniffles " akiza...you must go on now...my time....its passed ". Akiza holds her father cheeks " no..no daddy n- " konko cuts off his pleading daughter with a finger to her lips " love....please...I need to be with your mother now.....but know...I love you " he kisses her head as tears stream down akiza face as konko rests his head and closes his eyes " I love you too....father " the rest of team ten looks on as yati now returns to regular form. Moments later team 14 emerges from the dome building with minor scraps and cuts " I wonder what happened here " shato speaks and nazori looks on " I belive they had quite a battle like we did.. " later on the teams walk back towards the village the same way they came " so you found signs of orochimaru ik the building nazori ? " akumi asks as nazori nods " yes...old scrolls, test tubes, labs...and obviously team white snake " he looks at the ground as akumi nods " but what about those masked akatuski members " akumi askes agian as nazoir looks his way " ying and yang fled after my teams combined attack...they were quite strong " . Akiza walked behind the group as katsumi comforts her " im sorry akiza... I really am " katsumi pats her and akiza nods slowly her hair hidding her eyes " ill..be fine.. " that night both teams stopped at the hot springs they saw om there way, the boys went to there side as the girls went to theres " I cant wait to relax " zatzu says happily as he removes his fishnet vest and yati removes his jacket " me too.. " in the girls side katsumi removes her cloths amd wraps ber self in a towel " wahh!

" she bites her lip as they all wrao towels around them sleves and head into the springs " ahhh so warm " katsumi smiles as the steam rises and the other girls get in. " yati wraps a towel around himself " well time for some well desserved R and R " yati walks to the door " yati wait " akumi tries to grab him but it was too late yati stepped out of the locker room his eyes closed as he slipped and fell forward " ahh no no ! " he fell into the water with a splash and as he surfaced he found himslelf resting aginst katsumis bare chest " k-k-katsumi.. " he says nervously with a blush " yati...you you " she blushed brightly as yati scanned the spring seeing akiza covering her self and red sunk under the water " oh my..I.. im sorry " yati blushes bright as katsumi screams " you pervert! " she bonks his head and causes him to run out of the spring towel less " hes got a cute butt " red said as she surfaced with a giggle " wah!...well um..well...yeah " katsumi blushes worse. Yati sat in the boys spring as akumi giggles " so did you have fun over in the girls side ? " yati looks at akumi in anger " oh shut up! " yati yells as all the boys giggle . That night yati slept in a room by himself across the hall from akumi and nazori..he laid on a floor bed roll, and around 1:30 am the sliding door to his room opened and swiftly shut as a small form of a girl kneeled beside him " yati-kun " the voice said as yati slowly awoke " huh..who - oh katsumi " a blush comes to his cheeks as he looks up at a kneeling katsumi dressed in a short balck nightgown " I...I though you mit get chilly in hear by yourslef....can I sleep her too ? " she asks with a nervous smile and a blush as yati nods swiftly and lifta the blanket amd katsumi crawls in beside him and lays down " thank you...yati "she closes her eyes as yati lays back down " goodnight katsumi " he closes his eyes but soon after he feels arms around his body and he wraps his around her " katsumi...your...really warm " he blushes as he faces her there eyes meeting while laying down " you are too " she nuzzled his cheek and closes her eye " your so kind to me katsumi....I...im really greatful " yati says tiredly as he nuzzles back " of course I am yati-kun " she says in a quite voice..almost a whisper " its because...
