Chapter 3 - Pakura's choice.

"Ok, it is time to take out Pakura," Kai-La said after searching the house and finding the nursery.

There was some dried food but he couldn't feed that to Naruto. He ate it himself. Touching Naruto's stomach he channeled some chakra into him. The chakra he channeled was enough to tide Naruto over who started to doze off to sleep. The house was somehow completely clean. Preserved in a weird state.

"Have got to go get some food later. Chakra only diet cant be good for ya." Kah-La said as changed the few cells in Naruto's stomach back to regular ones.

Reaching out Kai-La made a Portal. "Come out Pakura. I fixed your body up for your cells to have at least recover enough for you to move." Kai-La smiled as he watched her walk out slowly timidly like a baby deer. She was not fooling anyone. He knew the strength she possessed.

Pakura walked out slowly and quite cautiously. Her eyes never left the man in front of her. Or the baby in the crib.

"So.. why did you save me. It cant be for the reason I think." Pakura said shyly.

"I saved you because I was led to you. I don't know what you think but it may be true. What I want is for you to become one of my wives and help me rebuild my clan. Well, technically clans. I just realized the Senju clan has fallen as well with only a few survivors." Kai-La said with a smile.

"You serious aren't you? There are tons of women. With that strength, you could take as many as you want and force your clan back to prominence." Pakura said plainly.

"I am not that kind of guy. At least I don't think I am anyway. Plus if I was to do that, my children and any other wives I had would be in danger and any village that is allied with me as well." Kai-La said as he checked on Naruto to make sure he was comfortable.

Naruto was out like a light. Dead to the world as he drooled. Pakura stood a little unsteady on her feet. Kai-La waved his hands around the crib. Creating a little thin multi-dimensional barrier for anyone who would try to grab Naruto. If you reached through. Bye bye to your hands.

Pakura watched intrigued. Walking from the crib Kai-La stood in front of Pakura.

"Ahh, my apologies I should have asked how you are. Considering what happened to you. That may have drained you more than the physical damage." Kai-La walked her and set her in a nearby chair to rest. "That's better. Now correct me if I am wrong. Your village and the opposing enemy village. The Village Hidden in Stone I believed, collaborated to kill you and make you a martyr for there own reasons. For that, I apologize. I understand if you want to take revenge on those who orc.h.e.s.trated it." Kai-La said slowly to her at the end.

"If I don't want revenge will you allow it?" Pakura said cautiously. part of her still held loyalty to the village.

"Of course that is not a problem," Kai-La said with his head tilted confused.

"If I don't want to be a ninja either what will you do?" Pakura said with hope.

"Um, that one is a little more difficult," Kai-La said plainly.

"Tch." Pakura s.u.c.k.e.d on her teeth.

Shaking his head Kai-La said "keep your head up till I am finished. If you don't want to be an active ninja, that's fine. However, you must keep your skills up. The family will need to be defended and I believe you to be someone who cares about family."

"That's fine by me. However, there are two things." Pakura said as she looks at Kai-La determined.

"Go on." Kai-La gestured intrigued.

"For me to become your woman. You have to beat me in a match. Or gain my respect." Pakura said.

"Well shit. If saving your life didn't garner your respect what will?" Kai-La said with his eyebrow raised.

"You saved my life. You do have my respect. But you also had your own reasons for doing that. What are you scared of a challenge?" Pakura said folding her arms.

"Fair enough. I am not scared to challenge or receive one." Kai-La said as he stroked his chin. "But we will do this after you completely recover. You need to decide if you wanna be Pakura Uzumaki or Pakura Senju." Kai-La said as he started to leave the room.

"Wait. What do you mean? You talk as if you have already won." Pakura said as she tried to stand up before sitting back down. Her chakra had been acting funny for a while.

Looking back Kai-La stopped at the door. "You have already lost. I am personally fond of you. I will be proud to have you as one of my wives. For that reason, I will be extremely heavy handed when I win against you. I will hold back just enough not to kill you."

"I don't want it any other way. Prove to me that you can protect our future family." Pakura said smiling. She was already looking forward to the fight.

"Count on it. Relax and watch Naruto. I think there are some clothes here in the room. I will be down the hall in the library." Kai-La said smiling at Pakura.

A few hours in the library Kai-La found what he was looking for. A book on chakra building and chakra control. With those in hand, he scanned through the rest of the books grabbing a few on fire and water moves. He grabbed a few wind scrolls for Pakura.

The time he spent looking for what he needed. He trained his hearing to hear around the village. It took quite a while to get used to it. Even then, listening to far gave him a headache.

'I will need to practice more. That wish definitely points out what's wrong but more training to blend it back in. "This should be enough," Kai-La said before walking back.

Returning to the room he was surprised what he saw. Pakura had moved the chair next to the crib. She had a kunai gripped in her hand in the sleeve. As soon as Kai-La moved a little more she woke up.

"It is ok. Just me over here. Go back to sleep. Those clothes look nice on you by the way." Kai-La said as he stood by the other side of the crib.

Checking over the dimensional setup he noticed no problems. Looking to the entrance of the compound he saw Anko, Kakashi, Guy, and a Hyuga woman he hasn't seen before.

Looking back to Pakura he informed her of those who were coming. "It will be fine don't worry."

"I am fine. Whatever you did to me earlier has sped up my recovery. Almost all of my cuts are healed completely. The only thing left is my chakra reserves to recover. You changed my appearance a little. My hair and eyes.. but not my face. Why not my face?" Pakura asked sitting up a little.

"That is good. Let me know if anything hurts ok? Why change your face it's very beautiful. Your eyes were a dead giveaway for your old life. The streaks in your hair are natural now. With your increase in body mass, you look different enough to cause people to keep guessing." Kai-La said walking over to her handing over the wind scrolls. "In case you haven't learned any of these yet."

"Thanks," Pakura said taking them with a smile and small blush. The compliment was refreshing.

"Haha your cute when you blush but s.e.xy when you smile how nice," Kai-La said laughing a little.

"Shut up you jerk. Don't lie like that." Pakura blushed deeper hitting him in the c.h.e.s.t with one of the scrolls.

"Hey, there quit it. I am definitely a jerk but I wasn't lying about that." Kai-La said grabbing the scroll to keep her from keep hitting him.

"I'm not cute. You just want me to have children to pass my bloodline abilities over. I had time to think about it. That's the real reason they are coming here. I had a lot to think about when you were gone." Pakura said turning away from Kai-La.

"How foolish," Kai-La said as he moved his mask up and grabbed her by the chin. Kissing her gently at first. Then with a little more force slipping his tongue inside. He pulled away after she tapped his arm.

"Huff, huff that was nice," Pakura said blushing gasping for breath. She moved her hand and reset his mask for him. "Good distraction."

"If I say your cute you are cute. As for your bloodline abilities, I can recreate that after I first healed you a little. After studying it some, I could duplicate it in others. Not just children made with you. Taking your corpse would allow me to learn it a lot quicker." Kai-La said stroking her face. "Trust me, I do not need your bloodline. But you on the other hand... I definitely want. You are not the only one has been thinking in the last few hours."

"I want to believe you, but I feel like the moment we sleep togethor I will wake up in a bloodline limit cell. F.o.r.c.i.b.l.y producing babies and extracting what they can from me." Pakura said starting to sob. "I am an enemy ninja, it would happen if they find out."

"Pakura I can assure you," Kai-La said grabbing Pakura pulling her in closer. "I will not allow that to happen. If you want, I can remove your bloodline ability or mask it if you like. Don't worry I will train and instill fear in everyone to show them what will happen if they attack my people."

"Mh I will trust you on that. I still want that fight later. But for now, I will take the Uzumaki name... husband." Pakura said blushing. Burying her head in his neck she couldn't believe what she just said. 'I feel like a kid again.. Damn it. I am acting like a civilian woman!' Backing away she composed her self.

"That's fine. Be my wife," Kai-La said standing up. Looking over to the door he tried something else he remembered.

"Do come in you four, the seals are down. We are in the nursery." Kai-La projected his voice to them controlling the frequency and pitch. Transmitted waves directly to a surrounding location. He watched with his x-ray vision as they visibly flinched when his voice arrived. To give them credit, they all went on high alert.

"Heh, they are freaking out. But at least it's in a good way." Kai-La said looking back to Pakura. "Are you feeling calmer now?"

"Mmhm. I will be fine." Pakura said smiling. "Put these away I will read them later."

"Very well," Kai-La said as he placed the scrolls and books in a small pocket dimension. Leaving the Chakra build up book out. He started to read it.

A few minutes later the four came up to the nursey cautiously. Arriving they were shocked to see a sleeping baby Naruto, a woman they have never seen before watching over him dressed in Uzumaki clothes, and a masked man reading a chakra build up book.

"The Hokage sent us." The Hyuga woman said with a slight bow. "I am Hisa Hyuga and he is Might Guy. From my understanding, you know Kakashi Hatake and Anko Mitarashi." She said gesturing to each of them.

"It is a p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e. I am Kai-La Senju Uzumaki last Warlord of Uzu. This lovely woman is Pakura Uzumaki Guardian of the family." Kai-La said gesturing to himself and Pakura. "So who wishes to go first."

"I will," Hisa said stepping forward. "Since titles are used. I should be straightforward then." She removed the headband from her head. "I am from the branch family. You don't seem to surprise."

"I am not. I have my ways of gathering information. Do continue." Kai-La said narrowing his eyes.

"Right. I have taken the mission of helping restore the Uzumaki clan. If you will have me." Hisa said bowing her head.

Kai-La looked at Pakura. "What say you? She would come in after you as a wife. I am not the one who found her so I leave it up to you."

"Way to put me on the spot!" Pakura said with a little anger. "This will go towards relations with the village improving. I am in favor but... explain to me what that mark is on your forehead?"

"It's..." Hisa started to say before Anko cut her off.

"Its the Hyuga birdcage seal. Who is she?" Anko asked quite angrily.

A little angrier Pakura answered. "I am his wife. His first wife since you are taking your time. Have a problem with that?" Pakura anger started to rise at the situation.

"So did you go and pick any random woman? You blasted jerk." Anko said angrily towards Kai-La.

"No, I did not," Kai-La said shaking his head. "Your anger is unneeded calm yourself. You as well Pakura, you are still recovering."

"Mm, you are right my apologies. Please miss Hisa continue." Pakura said as she started to relax. 'great I am even snapping like a child.' Thinking about it she looked at her arm. The pregnancy seal was fading. 'Wait did he do that? No, he didn't. Matter of he didn't touch it or the weapon seal either. crap I need to know more about the Uzumaki's.'

"Anko calm down," Gai said as he placed a hand on her shoulder. It barely worked but Guy left his hand there just in case.

"Thank you. The caged bird seal prevents anyone from stealing our eyes. Even someone like me who hasn't awaken the Byakugan. Has it placed just in case." Hisa said with her head down. She felt uneasy due to Kai-La's look earlier.

"I see. I have no problem with it. But I hope you can help me with Leaf politics. I do remember your clan is known for there rule following." Pakura said smiling.

"Of course my Lady," Hisa said with a smile.

"Hold on. Your clan won't move that blasted seal correct?" Kai-La said angrily. "Unacceptable."

"No, my Lord they will not," Hisa said timidly again.

"Right... so hears the thing. If you join my family. We come before the Hyuga clan. Will you be able to do that? I do not need a knife in the back later." Kai-La said as he used his x-ray vision to monitor each minute detail in her body.

"Of course! I will put our family before it. But I cannot do anything about this mark." Hisa said looking into Kai-La's eyes. The determination was there to prove herself. She has been waiting for this for a long time. Even a little distance from the Hyuga clan is better than nothing.

"Very well then. You have her approval and you have mine. Come back tomorrow with your belongings and we will take care of all the official paperwork." Kai-La said in a gentler tone.

"Um, thank you. Can I get my stuff now? I rather get started at once." Hisa asked barely containing her excitement.

"Yes, you can. Please go. When you return don't reach into the crib. There are protections in place ok?" Pakura said. She looked at Kai-La. "If she is here she can watch Naruto. While we have some time to ourselves." She said the last part with a blush.

The room became tense the moment she said that. Anko was fuming. Guy was happy the baby was protected. Kakashi couldn't focus. So was bothering him.

"Cough, cough. Let us continue, shall we? I will go next. You call for me why exactly?" Kakashi asked. He did his best to diffuse the situation.

"Right. I called to tell you some details about your eye. The one you have.. it is from someone dangerous. Can you tell me more about him and what else happened on that mission?If you do i will tell you what he has been up to. What you do with that information after, is up to you. I will give you a day to talk to the Third Hokage about it. Don't mention this to anyone else in the Leaf village. Safety depends on it." Kai-La told Kakashi.

"I see.. excuse me." With that said Kakashi disappeared. Guy followed right after. But not before leaving some scrolls.

"Well that was something else," Kai-La said as he looked at the scrolls Guy dropped before leaving. "What are these?" He asked Anko

"Food scrolls. That Hyuga girl. You're going to remove her caged bird seal aren't you?" Anko asked as she moved to grab them from Kai-La.

"Hey what are you doing?" Kai-La asked when she grabbed the scrolls from him. "Yes, I am."

"Its a wife duty to help take care of her family," Anko said blushing. "I agree to be the first wife."

"That is already taken. But I guess you can be the first Senju wife. The first Uzumaki wife is taken. And the first wife period is mine." Pakura said with a smirk.

"Fine. I will put these away. The older looking one should be the first wife anyway." Anko said before disappearing with the scrolls.

"That little snake. I am gonna burn her a.s.s if she keeps mouthing off like that. Who is she calling old?" Pakura said looking to Kai-La who just stood there dazed. "What?!"

"Eh, she is dealing with some things. If it gets out of hand tell me I will take care of it. I wonder what changed her mind?" Kai-La said as he moved around the room for some clothes. Sleeping in a suit was not his plan.

"What are you doing?" Pakura asked.

"I am looking to see if this room has some sleepwear. If not I will get it from the other room." Kai-La said as he closed another drawer.

"You won't need them tonight," Pakura said coming up behind him.

"Huh, why is that?" Kai-La was a little confused.

"I took the first kiss among your wives. I will also bed you first. So follow me." Pakura said grabbing his hand and leading him to the other room. "Naruto's protection is still up isn't it."

"Yeah, it will last for another 6 hours," Kai-La said as he started to pick his speed to match her pulling.

"That's plenty of time. You better be able to please your wife." Pakura said.
