A/N: Hey guys! This is a filler part of the whole story and contributes very little to the main storyline but I do suggest you read it. It's really just full of fluff and steamy bits between Kakashi and my O.C. Sonea just for my enjoyment really because I love this story I have written so far so I'll post it as quickly as I can before we get back to the third and final part to the whole saga.

Another thing is that I'll be changing the POV from Sonea's to third persons from here on out because otherwise it will be short and confusing with what I'm planning for the future of this story. Thanks to everyone reading and following my story or me, I really appreciate it and any comments or reviews or even constructive criticism on my writing.

One more note, the rating is going to be bumped up by chapter three just incae because there are a few steamy bits here and there and I don't want my story removed because of a simple mistake.

Chapter one

Sonea squirmed uncomfortably in the hospital gown she was sitting in and the position she was currently sitting in. Tsunade had asked to give a full physical examination before she left for two years to search for the bijuu. She jumped as something cold probed her in an awkward place and a blush of embarrassment and annoyance appeared across her face as she tried not to reach for Tsunade between her legs and strangle the damn-probing woman.

"Are you finished poking me with cold instruments yet Tsunade?" Sonea asked with annoyance as she closed her eyes and forced her blush away while crossing her arms.

"Almost, just a little bit longer and I'll give you the diagnosis." Tsunade said as Sonea jumped again with another probe and gripped the arms of the chair tighter from annoyance and anger, it was damn cold! All tools were removed and Tsunade stood up, removing her gloves and Sonea sat up with her legs together again thanking whatever god was out there that it was over. "Well, it's clear your no longer are innocent, it comes with the job of being a ninja… But I need to talk to you about your body clock." Tsunade said, moving behind her desk in the little examination room.

"Is something wrong?" Sonea asked carefully as she hopped off of the chair and moved to the chair across from Tsunade by her desk and waited patiently.

"I'm not sure but… Did all of your body clock stop Sonea?" Tsunade asked carefully.

"Yeah, it all stopped, I'm not able to get pregnant because of it now please tell me what's wrong… You're making me worried here." Sonea urged as she sat forwards in her chair, holding her gown together.

"It seems your body clock has started again or going to start soon which means you'll be aging again and all the other things that come with being mortal." Tsunade said with almost a smirk and Sonea slumped back in her chair, looking a bit pale and eyes wide.

"That would explain why I'm getting blood cravings again so badly…" Sonea said, sighing and shaking her head before setting her eyes back on Tsunade.

"I have also noticed the stress your body is under, being in what you call 'demon mode' for so long and I can see the pain in your eyes, there's no denying it Sonea so we'll be giving you some pain medication, working up the levels for your trip when needed and all the other medication you'll need for your regular body cycles." Tsunade said, writing something down and handing it to Shizune who rushed off quickly. "However, I am worried you might experience some other pains and symptoms and I'm worried that I won't be there so I'll have to alert your team to your predicament." Tsunade said calmly as she could and Sonea's eyes widened before she buried her face in her hands.

"Oh god…. " She said out in mortification and Tsunade smirked before smiling gently and cracking her knuckles.

"Don't worry about a thing, I'll handle it… Poor Kakashi and Tenzo, they don't know what they're in for." Tsunade said with a slight chuckle as Sonea looked up and gave her a small smile of thanks as Shizune rushed back in, carrying bottles of medication and passed them to Sonea as Tsunade explained what each one was for. "If anything does happen that you three cannot handle health wise, send one of your circle members to me and we'll meet you at the boarders to sort it out… You may go Sonea, see you in a year or two." Tsunade said with a smile. Sonea stood up with her medication in a paper bag and moved off to the curtains to change back into her uniform before she left for home to finish some last minute packing.

Sonea sat in her empty apartment later that day, tomorrow they would be leaving to Suna first to meet with Gaara and work from there. She drew seals along her legs and abdomen as she sealed away extra futons, food ration bars and a medical kit in case they lost their belongings due to some unforeseen circumstances, one couldn't be to careful when acting as a bandit than a ninja. It was also going to be easier to sneak into the Hidden Villages as bandits if they need to, to find the jinchuuriki.

Sonea knew where The Ichibi, Hachibi and Kyuubi were and she had vague ideas about the Niibi, Sanbi, Gonbi and Yonbi but she had no clue where the Rokubi and Nanabi were going to be and that was where Jiraiya's spy network came in. Sonea chuckled to herself as she stared at the sun setting through one of her windows, if she didn't know Jiraiya, she would think he was just a travelling pervert and that was all he did but he was the villages biggest source of information with one of the largest networks of spies apart from Orochimaru. The same thing went for Kakashi, you wouldn't think he was an extremely strong ninja if it wasn't that he was and the rumours passed around by people.

She was worried about how badly her condition would worsen being away from her circle for so long as the seal stayed more balanced around them but as she knew, she wouldn't be around them all of the time and would have to deal with the pain that would follow, especially on missions. Right now, the seal was only weakened and felt like a small pin prick all over but it was easily ignored but her seal had shown up around the pentagram tattoo of her clans and wouldn't be easily hidden so she chose to just leave it out in the open as no one would be able to actually know it was a seal to hold a bijuu, especially half of the Jyuubi.

No one even knew that the Jyuubi was split into three before it was put into two again but she was starting to wonder if it was really put back into two pieces again. She could easily go against any bijuu and stop them between the one to eight tails when Konoha and Kumo were on good terms and she actually went there to stop the rampaging ox/octopus bijuu. But Kyuubi, Kurama was a completely different story. Sonea didn't and never has stood a chance against him before, she always lost the battle to him, being on almost equal terms… She was beginning to think that something went wrong with the separation like the whole sealing process that fateful day.

She shook her head violently, getting rid of the depressing thoughts before she actually began to cry again… It was the day where all of her mistakes began and nearly six hundred years later they still haunted her even if they were still a bit blurry from the memory erasing seals Taka had placed on her about five years ago before he died and they began to fade and some of her memories returning back to her. The sun had finished setting and now the sky was a dark purple with the stars starting to shine through and the moon was full and white but it was far from how innocent it actually looked… The body of the Jyuubi lived up there, dormant… She vaguely wondered what put her into such a philosophical mood this particular evening, was it because her doom was coming and it was still uncertain whether she would die in the next three to four years or something else?

She shook her head again and stopped all thought process as it was bringing on a headache, something she didn't need for travelling the next day especially to the humid sands of Kaze no Kuni and Sunagakure. Standing up, she moved off to the bathroom and stripped down as she stepped into the cold shower to fight off the impending headache and let the spray of the water dance across her tense shoulders as she slowly relaxed under it and wash away the uncertainty she still held dormant in her mind. She leaned her elbows against the side of the shower and leaned forwards so she could run the spray of water along her sensitive seal as it numbed it for a while making her feel tired all of a sudden.

She got out a little while later and dried her hair with a simple jutsu and brushed it out with a purple towel wrapped around her. She pulled on a tank top and some shorts before climbing into bed and falling asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.

' Konoha had been destroyed as Sonea protected Kakashi's corpse with what little resolve she had left as she decided it was pay back time, Sonea limped over to Sakura and ordered her to heal her as quickly and scarcely as possible as Naruto began to loose against an Akatsuki member. The Kyuubi chakra flared and she knew that she needed to step in soon or they would loose Naruto to Akatsuki.'

Sonea woke up with a start as she tried to desperately clear her vision of the blood pouring out of her eyes and the slight searing pain running down her back and into her right thigh from the seal. She was gasping for air as she held her throat and tried to calm down to distinguish the presences in her house when a warm face cloth was wiping at her eyes and she felt the bed dip from someone else sitting next to her.

"Take deep breaths Sonea, it's okay." Kakashi's voice said as she felt a warm hand rubbing circles on her back. She tried to focus on the breathing part while her vision cleared and the face cloth was dabbed across her heated and sweaty skin… She hadn't had a vision for ages and now they were doing more damage than just making her eyes bleed.

"Are you sure she's okay Senpai?" Tenzo's voice asked from next to Kakashi as Sonea blinked away the fuzziness and focused on the two guys.

"I'm fine, it's just a vision." Sonea said, massaging her temples at the headache that failed to leave the night before, at least she now knew why she was getting a headache.

"A vision?" Kakashi asked as he folded the bloody face cloth.

"Yeah, I couldn't say anything years ago when I suddenly had one. It's one of the Jyuubi's ocular powers and it grants me a quick look into the future, helping me along with my life and seal but the blood out of my eyes are just a side effect." Sonea explained as she stretched carefully without hurting her head more.

"Care to share what you saw?" Tenzo asked.

"Konoha was destroyed and Naruto was fighting a member of Akatsuki." Sonea explained simply as she untangled the sheets from her body and headed towards the bathroom for a quick shower and painkillers as she shut the door behind her.

"We should alert Tsunade-sama." Kakashi said through the door as he leaned next to it with Tenzo standing next to him.

"No, I saw it through my eyes so it's only going to happen later on, no need to worry her now. We need to get moving this morning anyway." Sonea said over the sound of the water falling.

"Have any of these 'visions' come true?" Tenzo asked and there was a slight pause to everyone in the house.

"Touch wood. So far, no, they've all been a little further on in the future, the ones I can remember anyway, touch wood." Sonea said, shutting off the water and stepping out of the bathroom in a towel and tapped Tenzo's forehead with a mischievous grin, making both Tenzo and Kakashi blush and look away sheepishly. "Why don't you two wait in the living room, I won't be long." Sonea said as she laid her clothes on the bed, oblivious to the males watching her. She looked up and they nodded quickly and left the room so Sonea could get dressed in piece. She pulled on her regular uniform of her collared top that stuck against her ribs, leaving the back open and stopped above her naval. She pulled on her shorts and looked at her dragon skin and folded it up and put it away safely in her house. She tied her hitai-ate around her waist and put her pouches on and she picked up her bag and slung it over her shoulders before walking to her door where she kept her shoes and pulled on her high heeled shinobi sandals that came up to her knee as she turned to face her travelling companions.

"You two ready to go?" Sonea asked looking at each of them as they nodded. "Great, let's go and I'll explain the details on the way to Suna where we are going to first." Sonea said, opening the door and closing it behind once they all walked out and waited at the top of the tower as she locked up and checked her barriers and making sure they were tight and secure. She nodded as they followed her onto the village walls and down into the dense forest surrounding it as they jumped into the trees and began running for Suna, a three-day trip.

They ran most of the day in silence, focusing on the time ahead and stopped at a little teashop for lunch as they sat and drank in silence and just sat in each other's company. It had been a while since Tenzo had just sat down with his senpai and his idol who gave him Raven as his idol and goal. He idolized her even more once he learned she was the one who saved him when he was a baby and she was an all round nice person, cute too.

Kakashi was thinking about a lot of things. It was good to have his right hand man with him again from his old ANBU days and to just spend time with Sonea and learning from her again, they brought back bittersweet memories but also what Sonea's circle explained to him. Her seal was indeed breaking and as anyone knows, when bijuu break out of their jinchuuriki's, the jinchuuriki dies as a great shock to the body. He was also told that Sonea had a weak body with a powerful bloodline which is the worst situation someone so powerful could find themselves in and how quickly a body can deteriate from not being able to control the power like that boy Kimimaru that Gaara and Lee fought against during the retrieval of Sasuke.

Sonea watched the thoughts pass through Tenzo and Kakashi's eyes. They seemed to have a happy though but then a sense of doom would pass over them and they would seem haunted in a way.

"Hey, can you two brighten up? You're making me depressed here and it's making my coffee taste bad." Sonea finally complained at the two, snapping them out of their thoughts and looking sheepishly at Sonea with apology. "Well since I have your attention right now I might as well explain the details of why I have requested this mission." Sonea began and saw them listening intently. "We are out here to find the bijuu and warn them and their jinchuuriki's about Akatsuki. I have been given the use of Jiraiya's spy network and I will be going to those meetings alone. Once we have finished in Suna, we will be ditching our shinobi uniforms and such for a bandit's look so we can exit and leave the different nations with ease. I know or have a vague idea of where each jinchuuriki is so after Suna we'll be travelling up to Tsuchi next then back into Hi's boarders to get back up into Kumo then by sea to Mizu, avoiding the Hidden Villages if possible. Any questions?" Sonea asked as she downed her cool coffee and ordered another.

"Tsunade-sama said something about training?" Tenzo asked and Sonea thanked the waitress and took a sip of her fresh coffee.

"Yes, you two have been chosen by Tsunade and I to be taught how to deal with jinchuuriki's and bijuu especially since the future doesn't seem to bright right now. I have gone head to head with out of control jinchuuriki and Bijuu with an unhealthy amount of hatred for me and I've won every time except against the Kyuubi, damn fox is too sly for it's own good…" Sonea muttered at the end as she ducked behind her cup and sipped at it broodingly.

"What are the details to this training if you don't mind telling us?" Tenzo asked again. Kakashi was watching Sonea with interest at how natural it seemed that she was talking about bijuu so easily, not showing an ounce of fear or anything but sadness towards them.

"We'll focus on your wood release Tenzo and with Kakashi, we'll be focusing on his chakra and his sharingan but we'll start once we get to Suna and train when we can out in the other nations… So Kakashi, up with the hitai-ate and open that eye of yours, we'll start now with your pre training." Sonea said as she flicked the hitai-ate up on his head and poked his eyelid gently as he opened his sharingan with an annoyed glare at Sonea who grinned mischievously at him. "Tenzo, I want you to work on strengthening your wood release with more chakra and very tightly bound wood, it'll take some concentration and practise but you'll get there then we'll test it against me." Sonea added as she downed her coffee.

"And you, what are you doing on this trip specifically?" Kakashi asked with some annoyance as he rested his chin in the palm of his hand. Sonea seemed to get saddened and looked down into the empty cup she was gripping between her hands.

"I'll be meeting with the spies and dealing with my seal so I won't be hindered in battles which is where your training also comes in." Sonea said sombrely, looking into her cup, her voice being lower than before. Kakashi and Tenzo both took it as a sign to drop the topic, Kakashi would talk to her and comfort her later if need be.

Sonea paid for lunch and they were off again into the forest towards Suna, by the half way point of their journey by the next day about midday, they should be entering into Kaze no Kuni meaning dessert sand. They stopped in a small and covered clearing as the sun began going down and started up a fire and lay their futons out as well as placing traps around their camp in case someone decided they would be easy pickings.

Sonea sat on her futon and poked at the fire with a stick with her chin in her palm leaning on the knee of one of her legs as she stared into it absentminded. Kakashi and Tenzo were watching her while eating their food and wondered if she was always this quiet or withdrawn in missions but Kakashi knew better, there was something on her mind, which wasn't surprising.

"I'll take first watch tonight and I'll wake up Tenzo for the second if you two don't mind?" Sonea asked, dumping her stick into the fire and sitting up straight to look at them. They both nodded and Sonea stood up in one fluid movement and jumped into the tree overhead where she made herself comfortable on a branch and watched the stars come out through the branches of trees as Kakashi and Tenzo finished eating and got into their futons to sleep. The night birds were singing and nocturnal animals were already scurrying around for food as Sonea leaned back against the tree trunk and head tilted up slightly, one knee was drawn up to her body while the other hung off the side and her hands clasped together around the drawn up knee.

She could almost feel herself aging day by day again some how, like a factory that had gone quiet for years that all of a sudden starts up again. It explained why her body had been craving blood again after being hurt when previously she would just heal herself and the cravings away with chakra but all of her extra chakra was going towards her body functions and holding the seal in place. People would have so much more chakra if they didn't live and age on the stuff and this was going to hinder her greatly as all she's done over the years was increase her chakra capacity but now it's decreased so she would have to be careful how she uses chakra now so she didn't exhaust herself to badly. She would also be susceptible to sickness now as well as much as Naruto is which isn't high but she hadn't been sick since she was a kid and not treated or looked after well.

Sonea would have to think of her health now so she didn't compromise the seal further. One weakened state could break the seal further than if she was in perfect health. Her reading of different seals and their effects over the years has helped her to learn a lot about her seal and how it worked with her bloodline which has resulted in a bittersweet position, it just showed her how close her doom and the worlds was right now thanks to Akatsuki.

Her eyes shot open at the sound of movement below her and she blinked the sunlight out of her vision. She didn't even remember when she had closed her eyes or gone into her meditative sleep but she had and it was now morning. A blur of silver hopped up next to her and sat on the same branch, concern lacing his dark eye.

"Why didn't you wake us up for the watch?" Kakashi asked and Sonea shrugged and looked through the trees to see the morning light shinning through.

"I guess I wasn't tired." She answered simply.

"You need to start thinking rationally about your body now that your body clock has started up again. You will probably be affected by it now, please just take care of yourself." He stressed and jumped back down to clean up his sleeping bag and belongings before they began their trek to Suna again.
