"She cant die, damn it!" they saw the blond boy exclaim, covered in markings of the late Toad Sannin. Everyone looked towards the blond haired boy.

"Naruto-kun..." It was Hinata Hyuuga, his fiancee who gently patted his arm to give encouragement.

"She cant..." Naruto muttered looking down at the raven haired girl who laid down in a hospital bed looking paler than usual, her breathing supported by a breathing mask.

"She wont die so easily." said a confident Sasuke Uchiha as he glanced down at his cousin.

"We'll be here when she wakes up." said Neji Hyuuga.

"Naruto-kun," Hinata spoke towards her fiance who looked towards the blue haired girl with sadden and hurt filled eyes. "Akane-chan is strong. She wont die so easily." Hinata said confidently. Naruto looked at her before he turned his gaze to his best friend.

"She is right, Naurto-san." It was the Kazakage of the desert, Gaara Sabaku. Gaara walked towards the bed upon his entrance by the door, gently caressing the cheek of the sleeping girl's pale as snow cheek.

"Don't underestimate the fiancee of the Kazakage, Uzumaki." Kankuro, Gaara's older brother said jokingly. Naruto's eyes looked around, seeing the people who cared for Akane.

It was the end with the war of Konoha against the S-Rank criminal organization namely the Akatsuki. Akane was made into the front lines of battle along side Naruto and Sasuke -who recently returned to aid Konoha- but an attack from the leader named Pein was too much for Akane.

"Do you guys remember when she was first introduced in Team 7?" Kiba suddenly asked, reminiscing some of their old memories. This made everyone of Rookie 9 of Konoha smile though Sasuke was not known for showing emotions, he did smile a small but visible one which shocked his girlfriend and soon to be fiance, Sakura..

"I do. Like it was yesterday." Naruto said fondly. Kakashi hummed softly.

"I honestly thought she would never have friends. But that changed when you went to her first, Naruto." Kakashi commented. Naruto gave a shy grin.

"Hey, under her cold mask was the Akane we now know." Naruto reasoned as flashbacks went through everyone's mind.

"Like how she started, remember?" Hinata said and everyone nodded.

"How did she start?" Sai asks. Sai was the newest edition to the team of Konoha as he originated from the illegal ROOT Anbu of Danzo.

"Well..." Naruto trailed off with a happy smile. Something they can pass by while Akane was unconscious and as they wait for her to wake up.

It was a sunny day in Konohagakure, a girl no younger than 12 years old was sitting in a large classroom with a building in flaming red color and earthly brown colored walls. She was sitting at the back row, watching the view of the sunny day. She was in the Ninja Academy and was considered to be the "Odd Girl" in the village she is always seen wearing a black long sleeve shirt with white tips of the sleeves and a neckerchief, black skirt that ends in the middle of her knees, a red tie connecting and securing her neckerchief in place. Black socks and ninja shoes. A few days had passed after the exams to become a Genin, now they are just waiting for their sensei to enter and announce the teams.

"TEME!!"

A loud voice exclaimed pulling the young girl from her thoughts as her ruby red eyes suddenly looked towards the boy with tan skin, blond spiky hair and sapphire eyes with whisker masks on his cheeks as he wore a orange jumpsuit. The girl from the back watched on as blond boy was glaring daggers at a spiky raven haired boy with onyx black eyes, wearing a blue shirt and white shorts as the shirt has a symbol of a fan. The top is red while the bottom of the fan symbol is white.
