The next morning, The Third Hokage came to visit me at my request. As usual, he had the pipe-that-always-leaves-alot-of-smoke-behind-and-could-possibly-kill-someone-from second-hand-smoke in his mouth. I sighed. I won't be surprised if he died from it. Honestly.
The Third Hokage walked over to the end of my bed and sat down. Sasuke, Sakura, and Kakashi were out on a mission escorting some royal family so they couldn't come. Nii-san didn't go so he stayed by my side worrying about what's wrong with me. I guess I can't complain about how he feels. What brother wouldn't worry about his sister?
"Miyuki."
Interrupted out my thoughts I looked up at the Hokage whose staring at me...dead on. I sweatdropped.
"Why are you staring at me Gramps....", I mumbled. He chuckled.
"You and Naruto call me Gramps. I'm not that old!", he says laughing. Oh really now? Then explain the wrinkles on your face and explain why you have the smell of old people! Hmm?
"Gramps. I have to ask you something personal and you cannot oblidge to answer." I say pointing at him. He nodded.
"I had a dream last night...and...this guy appeared before me...I don't fully recognize him but he seems familiar." I say looking down. My hands were beginning to slightly tremble at the thought of the man. Gramps looked deep in thought.
"What...did this man say to you in your dreams?" He asks with seriousness in his eyes.
"He only said my name and then..." I trailed off what I was going to say. The man in my dreams did something to me. It felt as if it really happened. The crystal being shoved into my chest. I felt the pain, the agony, and the feel of power seeping into my body.
"Miyuki?" He asks concerned. I snapped back into reality.
"Gramps...the man in my dream did something to me...he.." I trailed off again. Why can't I just say it? What's holding me back?
"He what?" He asks. I can see Gramps getting a serious expression yet again. This time it looks like it will be like that for the remainder of the time. Nii-san sits up in his seat looking at me in a serious expression also. I took a deep shuttered breath.
"He shoved this crystal into my chest....at first I was in agonizing pain and then...I felt power into my body. Not just any power....a special power that not even I can identify...it's stronger than my tailed beast power..." I say calmly. Gramps eyes widened and the pipe fell from his mouth. Um?
"What's wrong Gramps?" I asked.
"What did this man look like.", he asks sternly. I don't know what's going on but Gramps doesn't seem to be in the best mood at the moment.
"He..had horns, with purple ringed eyes..umm...a cape with a staff..and he looked half human and half something else.." I finished. Gramps face softened.
"Miyuki." Says Gramps looking at me in the eyes.
"Yes?"
"That's-"
"OI! GRAMPS! " Yells Nii-san standing up. He gave Gramps the squinty eyes and I can tell they were comminucating. Gramps sweatdropped and nodded.
"Who is it?" I asked.
"He's...your Father."
I laughed. And I laughed. AND I LAUGHED. There is no way that guy was my Father. I look NOTHING like him. He doesn't even look human for one thing and plus he had horns. Definitely not normal.
"Why are you laughing?" Asks Nii-san. I swiped a tear out of the corner of my eye.
"Because there is no way IN HELL that's my Father." I laughed. Gramps face saddened and Nii-san just slanted his mouth. What am I missing here?
"Miyuki, that is your Father." Says Nii-san walking towards me. What did he just say? No. Not Nii-san. Don't tell me he believed Gramps!
"Tell me how then! Explain to me about my so called Father and how I ended up in Konoha." I say sternly. Gramps sighed.
"You'll soon know but now isn't the time." He says looking down getting up from my bed. Gramps started walking towards the door until Nii-san got in front of Gramps blocking him from leaving.
"Gramps, I think she's old enough to know something about her Father." Nii-san says bluntly at Gramps. Nii-san knew about it and didn't tell me?!
"You knew about this Nii-san?!" I yell. He gave a big smile and scratched the back of his head.
"Before I say anything, I want to get confirmation from Miyuki that I can tell her about her Father." Says Gramps turning to look at me.
I nod in agreement.
"Well then, let's begin it off like this..." He started. "Your Father was the Sage of Six Paths."
"WHAT THE FUCK?!", I scream.

Sorry that this Chapter Ten was short but it was purposeful for me to do it.
Know why?
Because the next Chapter will make up for this one.
Happy? ^_^
And I wouldn't post this chapter without posting the next one because I feel as if I posted this without the next chapter you'd start sending me threatening update comments...Tehe...
