Tyr flickered outside, there were a bunch of ninja surrounding the houses.
Most were wearing painted masks, anbu.
Some were ninja that were close by and heard the commotion, they were mostly chunin.
They were being ordered by jonin without masks.
As soon as Tyr flickered outside, some jonin looked his way. They noticed the direction he came from.
One of them went up to him, it was Shikaku Nara.
Tyr, what happened here?
Tyr didn't respond. He looked around the anbu were all looking at him.
Where is the hokage? Tyr asked.
He is on his way. Just as Shikaku finished his sentence Hiruzen appeared in full combat armor.
Shikaku what happened here? How did sand ninja infiltrate the leaf? Asked Hiruzen.
Lord hokage, everyone bowed quickly. Then continued with what they were doing.
Shikaku also bowed.
I don't know yet Lord hokage. Looks like Tyr was here, and he was fighting.
Hiruzen then looked at Tyr. After two seconds Tyr bowed, Lord hokage.
Tyr, explain...
Lord hokage, I got home early from my mission. I decided to play a prank on my niece and nephew so I hid under the house and I was going to pop up and scare them tonight.
Then after waiting all day for them to get home from the academy I fell asleep.
Before I knew it, I heard sobbing and Setto was speaking with someone.
Then I heard the man say he was there to kill them, so I jumped out and engaged the ninja.
From the looks of it they were sand ninja.
Then we fought, and a boy with horns appeared.
He fought along with Setto and Sona, they managed to kill the two weaker ninja. While I fought the strongest one outside. Hiruzen looked around, he had seen the crater.
Then Hiruzen asked, what happened with the boy with horns?
He's inside, he showed up and baited that sand ninja into attacking him. Tyr pointed at the crater.
Once the sand ninja moved to attack the boy, I saw an opening and, well you can see for yourself.
An anbu appeared next to the hokage and whispered.
Lord hokage, there is another dead sand ninja in the house next door.
Tyr managed to hear him and was surprised, he hadn't known that.
Hiruzen had seen the slight surprise on Tyr's face.
Then another anbu appeared.
Lord hokage, I was the first one here, I saw the ending.
The boy with horns, he uses a strange jutsu.
It looks like light, and he can use medical ninjutsu.
Hiruzen looked at Tyr, you didn't mention any of that.
Well, hokage.
I was recounting what transpired here as quickly as possible, it will all be written down on the official report.
Did any ninja escape?
I don't think so Lord hokage, said Tyr.
Spread the word.
What happened here, the details will all be kept secret.
Yes, Lord hokage..
The two anbu flickered away, they went to the surrounding anbu to spread the hokages words.
Shikaku also left, he went to the other jonin and ordered them to spread the word to the chunin that were there.
Tyr, lead me to the boy...
Yes, Lord hokage.
Tyr then walked into the house, the hokage followed after him.
There they saw three kids, two of them were unconscious, one was wrapped in bandages. The other was bandaged as well, but to a much lesser degree.
Then Hiruzen saw the bay with horns.
He already knew about the boy, he had been watched since his parents stepped into the village.
Hiruzen knew about the children born with horns, it only happened in the land of demons and they were all to be killed at birth.
The ones that made it to adulthood, were all at the level of high jonin, low kage, and those are the ones without any ninjutsu.
When Hiruzen was a boy, he went out on a mission with his mentor, Tobirama and his squad mates.
They went to the land of demons to investigate, some one or something was killing villages. Five villages had been wiped out before they arrived.
He had seen it, a man with horns.
It was fighting on pure instinct, Tobirama was having a hard time dealing with it.
In the end though, it was just a mindless beast and Tobirama killed it, but he had seen the destruction it had caused before it died. He did some research, after the mission and he found out....
Eventually, they would all lose their minds and rampage.
Hiruzen spoke up. Dante what sort of kekkei genkai do you have?
Dante opened his eyes once he heard his name.
He saw him, the third hokage, the professor, the current god of Shinobi.
In his full battle gear, he was just missing his staff.
It's called Light Release, Lord hokage.
I've only recently awakened it.
Hmm....Light Release....
Show me.
Dante stood up, he then conjured a spear of light.
Hiruzen looked at it, he was intrigued. He had never seen this kekkei genkai before.
It's light, but it acts as a solid, Dante said.
I'm not sure how it works to be honest.
Then Dante threw the spear outside, Hiruzen followed it. It wasn't fast, as fast as a normal spear if Dante had thrown one. Outside a white haired jonin appeared. It was Kakashi.
As soon as he appeared, he saw a light traveling towards him.
He took out his sword and slashed it. The spear shattered instantly.
Kakashi was confused, were there still enemies here?
He then looked inside the house, he saw the hokage and the boy with horns.
Lord hokage, he said and bowed.
I was just attacked outside, there was a light, it came from this direction.
Kakashi, what did it feel like? The light projectile...
I cut it with my sword and it shattered instantly.
Hmm, so it does act as a solid.
What else can you do Dante? Asked Hiruzen.
Dante then asked, should we step outside Lord hokage?
Kakashi, clear the surrounding ninja.
I want all the ninja gone.
I want the anbu to set a perimeter around the senju compound, no one is to be let in.
Oh, and bring me Shikaku.
Yes, hokage.
Kakashi flickered out and relayed orders.
The ninja all started to disperse. Soon the field was empty.
Shikaku and Kakashi waited outside.
Dante, Tyr and the hokage all went outside.
Dante then shot out two light bullets.
Then he said, I don't have enough chakra to demonstrate the other two jutsu I know.
Shikaku took out a soldier pill and gave it to him.
Eat this.
Dante then ate the pill and he was instantly flooded with chakra.
Kakashi stand over there and block my next attack.
Kakashi flickered and then Dante let out a wave of light.
Kakashi's eyes widened and he prepared to strike it with his sword.
The wave wasn't slow, but it was nothing Kakashi couldn't track.
Once the wave was close Kakashi slashed it in half.
It travel three feet behind him and dispersed.
Then Dante put his hand out and used Regen on Tyr.
Lastly he conjured a light shield, it wasn't big enough to cover his whole body, but it could cover half.
Then he told Shikaku to hit it with a kunai.
When Shikaku hit it the kunai bounced off.
Then the shield disappeared. Dante then flickered inside and used Regen, once on Setto and once on Sona.
Through his entire demonstration he never used hand seals.
He just pointed and out came his jutsu.
Hiruzen was shocked, his jutsu may be weak now, but what would they be like when the boy grew older.
Dante flickered back outside. He was overflowing with chakra.
Kakashi flickered back to Shikaku's side.
Dante pointed at Kakashi and used Regen.
Then used it on Shikaku.
Lastly he used it on Hiruzen, before he used it on himself.
They were all feeling the effects of his Regen.
It felt like old unseen wounds were healing.
Dante, then looked at Tyr. His arm wasn't fully healed.
Dante used another Regen on him.
Hiruzen Kakashi and Shikaku were all studying each other.
They noticed a faint green glow around themselves and each other.
Then Hiruzen spoke.
Looks like his jutsu is healing over time.
Then Shikaku spoke, he doesn't have to channel it or use hand seals.
Once he was done speaking Kakashi spoke up, I feel rejuvenated. It feels like my body was injured before and only now is it at its peak.
This is to be kept a secret, said Hiruzen.
Then an anbu ninja showed up and whispered in his ear.
Lord hokage, Danzo is at the gate and he is demanding entry.
Before Hiruzen could speak, Danzo appeared with two of his root ninja beside him. One with orange hair and the other fully covered. Not a piece of skin could be seen from him.
Hiruzen, what's going on here? Danzo asked
He was clearly unsurprised though.
Danzo, who lost you through the front gates? I had this place under strict lockdown.
I'm an elder, it's obvious that I should be let in.
I'll conduct an investigation, I'll find out what happened here, Hiruzen.
Before Hiruzen could say anything, the two ninja that came here with Danzo had already moved.
Very well, Danzo I'll leave it to you then.
Tyr was visiblely unhappy with that.
He didn't like the idea that root would be snooping around in the senju compound.
Danzo, make sure your ninja don't go anywhere where they're not supposed to said Tyr.
Danzo responded, my ninja will go wherever they need, in order to find out the truth of what happened here.
Tyr tensed at his response.
Then Hiruzen spoke again, these two houses were the only ones affected.
Danzo don't go anywhere outside the affected area.
Danzo's face fell, he was planning on gaining something from the Senju from this failed mission.
Danzo, then stared at Dante.
Hiruzen, this boy is still in the academy and an orphan. He will be inducted into root.
Dante was visiblely displeased, although if he joined root, there was no doubt the missions would give good rewards, but there was no freedom in root, every root ninja had multiple secrecy seals on them.
Hiruzen noticed Dante's displeased face and spoke.
He won't, he will be assigned a jonin instructor when he graduates, just like all academy graduates.
I need more ninja for root. It was agreed l, that I would take orphan kids and orphan clan kids to make up the numbers. You cannot interfere with this, Hiruzen.
Danzo, my decision here is final. You will have to find others.
Danzo was visiblely displeased, with a sour face he started walking away.
Once Danzo left, Hiruzen spoke to Dante.
Who taught you that medical jutsu?
No one taught me, I just learned it myself sir.
It's unlike any other medical jutsu, it heals over 10 seconds and it heals broken bones and long healed injuries. It's very high level.
Is that all the jutsu you know?
Yes Lord hokage, besides the academy jutsu and the body flicker jutsu.
Dante didn't try to hide anything from Hiruzen.
The man was old, and being so old as a ninja meant something.
This old man had seen it all, he's been a ninja longer than Dante had ever been alive, in both life's.
The only thing Dante wasn't willing to expose was his system, he would never willingly give that up.
Ok.
Shikaku have someone prepare a place for him to settle at.
Yes, Lord hokage.
Before Shikaku could flicker away, Dante spoke up.
I already have a place sir, well it just needs a new kitchen ceiling, but once I fix that it'll be good as new.
Dante didn't want to be under constant anbu surveillance, and going to whatever place Hiruzen provided would put him in the most surveillance.
People would still be watching him, but in the Senju compound they would be able to get close.
So Dante preferred to stay here for now.
Hiruzen then said. You can't stay here kid, you're medical jutsu is too valuable.
Dante saw where this was going, and he didn't like it one bit.
Uncle Tyr, am I not welcome here anymore? Dante asked.
Dante would try to use any excuse to not leave.
Tyr looked at Dante, then he looked at Hiruzen.
Kid.... I never said that....but I can't go against the hokages orders.
Orders? Am I being ordered? Do I not have a say where I go? When I was starving in the little closet the village provided. Why did no one order me to go live in a house with food?
Everyone looked at Dante, he was still too skinny for his size. Although he was getting more muscular by the day.
No one wanted to speak up.
Fine kid, you can remain here.
Tomorrow I'll send someone for you.
Hiruzen then left, he walked towards the Senju gate.
Shikaku spoke up, one way or another the hokage will have his way, why do you have to make more work for me? Then he left.
Dante was waiting for Kakashi to speak, but he didn't.
Then Dante asked him, don't you have somewhere to be?
Not particularly, I'm curious about your kekkei genkai. It looks like light, but it's easy to block or parry.
Easy?
Now that Kakashi had said that, it got Dante thinking.
Kakashi had broken his wave of light with a single slash. The angel did the same, but when it blocked it's stance was broken.
Could it be because of it's low level? I have noticed, my light bullets are getting faster the higher the level goes up.
You're right Kakashi, but I only awakened my light kekkei genkai a couple days ago.
I'm still figuring it out...
Then, Tyr spoke up.
Dante let's go check on Setto and Sona.
They both walked inside to where Setto and Sona were laying down, there was a medical ninja attending them.
The ninja was changing Sona's bandages, Setto looked like his were already changed.
Once Tyr looked at who the ninja was he spoke to her.
Wendy, how are my niece and nephew?
Oh, Tyr. They were mostly fine, jutsu cuts and bruises.
From the amount of blood on the bandages I had assumed Setto had been stabbed, multiple times, but when I took them off to clean his wounds. What I assumed would be holes were just cuts.
Sona was better, she only had small cuts.
The odd thing was when I took off her bandages she wasn't bleeding in some areas where the bandage indicated.
I see, that's good. Thanks for looking at them Wendy.
Dante got a look at the medical ninja, she was about 5ft 6 inches, she had black hair and grey eyes.
She wore the leaf headband on her right arm and she was dressed in ninja gear. She wasn't a jonin, she didn't have the jonin flak jacket.
Dante walked up to Setto and used Regen on him again.
He then used it on Sona.
Hey!! What are you doing? This isn't the time or place to practice medical ninjutsu!!
If you mess up, they could be injured or worse. Stop what you're doing!! Wendy yelled, but it was too late.
Setto and Sona both had a faint green glow around them.
Dante was a bit startled, he hadn't expected anyone to yell at this time.
Just as he was going to retort, Tyr spoke up.
Wendy it's alright, if he's healing them they should recover by tomorrow morning.
Tyr, what are you talking about? He's just a kid, hasn't even graduated from the academy yet. Before she could go one, she noticed the changes on Setto.
His cuts were closing.
She looked at Sona and the same thing was happening.
What the hell, is this....
She was observing them, all the medical knowledge she knew, it's as if it didn't matter.
What she was looking at was impossible.
Kakashi was also examining the changes to the Senju kids. He didn't know much medical knowledge, but he also knew it was impossible. Yet he had felt it, whatever jutsu Dante had used, it seemed to heal anything.
10 seconds later the green glow around the senju kids went away and they stopped healing.
Then Dante looked at Tyr and spoke.
Old man, they should be alright with that.
Today was my first day using that jutsu on others so I don't know if there are any side effects.
Old man???!!
Don't you mean uncle? Tyr responded with a smirk, looking at Dante as if he would never let him forget.
Dante was visiblely annoyed. Who would call you uncle? I only see an old man.
Tyr then got serious.
Ok kid, they look almost fully recovered anyway. As for the side effects, use it on me again. My arm is still not fully healed, if there are side effects to your healing jutsu. We can test it with me.
Dante then used Regen on Tyr again, his chakra was still overflowing, from the soldier pill he had taken.
Kakashi was still there, observing Dante.
Then he flickered away a second after Dante had used Regen on Tyr.
Oh, he finally left. I wonder if the hokage had him stay to observe me... Dante thought.
The medical ninja Wendy was now observing Tyr, she was looking at his arm, she didn't understand why Tyr had said it wasn't fully healed, it looked fine....on the outside. Wendy thought.
Once she finished the thought she grabbed Tyr's arms, once she grabbed Tyr's arms she was confused.
She didn't feel any breaks and Tyr didn't seem like he was in pain.
Tyr noticed her confusion.
It's mostly healed now Wendy, nothing to observe anymore.
Mostly healed.... What do you mean? What was wrong with it? She asked.
It was broken, I infused chakra into it to kill the enemy jonin. Tyr responded.
Wendy was skeptical, broken bones don't hear on the same day, hashirama himself couldn't even heal broken bones on the same day.
Old man, I'll heal you one more time.
Then I'm leaving.
Oh, alright Dante. Don't worry about your kitchen ceiling, I'll have someone go over and fix it tomorrow.
Dante waited for the faint green glow to leave Tyr before he used Regen again.
As he walked out the front door, Kakashi reappeared.
He had brought someone with him.
Dante this is Might Guy. Use the little healing jutsu on him, and while you're at it use it on me as well.
Huh? Kakashi why did you bring me over to a kid, I thought you said we were gonna spar, and what's this healing you're talking about, I'm not injured, I'm burning up with youth!
Dante was about to speak up, but he changed his mind. He was about to refuse Kakash.
He used Regen on Guy and Kakashi.
He would use this encounter later, if he needed something from one of them.
As Guy was trying to get Kakashi to fight him he started glowing green.
Oh, what's this? I feel like I'm about to explode with energy, my bones, my muscles, my nerves, I feel like it's all healing.
Hey kid, did you do this?
My name's Might Guy, the blue beast of konoha and number one at taijutsu in the village.
If you ever want some training, look for me I'll teach you something as repayment for this.
Kakashi then spoke, alright we're off, see you around kid. He then flickered away, Guy went after him.
Hey Kakashi, you said we would fight.
Where are you going, come back here and fight me.
Dante swore he heard something about youth as guy disappeared.
Dante then walked to his house and went inside.
He went into the kitchen and there was still blood everywhere, but the ninja's body was gone and so was any fragments from his mask.
Dante then looked at the hole in the kitchen ceiling, it didn't look like anything important was broken on the second floor.
He went back to the living room and picked up a clothes.
He then went upstairs, and stepped into the shower.
Once outside of the shower he went to lay on the bed.
His quest to protect Sona was completed, he was really curious about what his reward would do.
