The Heirs

Chapter 18

* Third POV*

The man sighted, he had been watching the cave mouth for over 6 hours now, and nothing had emerged. The only indication that he had of someone living here was because of the seal that kept everyone out. He was irritated and hungry, not the best of combinations. After a couple tries of breaking the seal he had given up. whoever had placed the seal could be two things. 1. He or she had a lot more chakra than he or 2. they outclassed him in jutsu. If he was right about the inhabitants, they had the first one. Their bloodline strong enough to keep lesser dragons out, very convenient now that they were being hunted. Gritting his teeth he strode to the entrance "I know you're there. Come out now." he said it with a sing-song voice like that would sway them. He waited, expectant. Nothing came, not even a breeze. He stamped his feet in irritation. Little rat, I'll find you and when I do you wish I never had. He stalked away, out of his patience.

* Luna's POV*

Being in the foundation didn't make it easy for her, the anbu who were directly signed under the hokage didn't like talking to her or even bother to share a table. Most people who were in the foundation stayed there , but she hadn't. Danzo hadn't said why, but he made it clear that she was to stay here, even though she would only listen to his orders and not those of the hokage. Almost everyone in the room stared at her, she could feel the eyes watching her every move. She murmered softly to Deli "Well isn't it nice here? And the people are just so friendly, don't ya think?" "You're not here to make any friends so stop your whining child." She stared at her dragon with wide eyes. "Excuse me?" Deli stared at her with her red eyes burning "Stop acting like a child. If you and your brother ever want back what is rightfully yours you need to grow up. Preferably fast." She hung her head, a blush visible "You're right. I'm sorry for my insolence. It won't happen again." Deli didn't say anything else, just watched while Luna shoved food on her plate and ate in silence, standing against the wall.

weeks passed in a similar pattern, she wasn't called away so the only thing she did was train and eat. Every once in a while she visited her brother, but it had become harder too see him. The scouts were milling a bit too close to home, but her brother refused to leave. "I will not be chased away when they're not even a hundred percent sure I am where they think I am." The only thing he said these days when she dared breach the subject.
