5 The Next Steps First Person

'Hmmm Interesting' is my thought as I look down at the man knelt at my feet.

"Speak whats your Rank Riko?"

(Riko) "I am a Jonin Lord."

"That is not what I meant." I say with a cold tone, clearly showing my irritation.

(Small Info Dump)

The different clans under the Inab.i.+.c.hi Clan have a different ranking system along side normal s.h.i.+n.o.bi ranking. These rankings are;

Pup - Normal Civilian

New Blood - Genin

Young Blood - Chunin

Full Blood - Jonin

Partial Blood - Special Jonin

Mature Blood - Elite Jonin/Anbu

Old Blood - Jonin Commander/Elite Anbu

Elder Blood - Jonin General/Anbu Commander

Beta - Kage's Advisers

Alpha - Anbu General

Omega - Kage

This system means that some lower rank s.h.i.+n.o.bi are regarded as a higher level because of there pack authority.

(Info Dump Over)

(Riko) "I was told before my mission never to mention our ways in public Lord."

As I feel my voice get colder I move my face closer to Riko's and say.

"You need to remember Riko I am now the Omega so you better stop treating me as a clans young master."

I can see visible shock from this as he replies.

(Riko) "I apologise Omega" he bows "My s.h.i.+n.o.bi rank is Jonin but I am an Old Blood pack member Lord!" as he finishes his sentence I can see the pa.s.sion in his gaze.

"Good" I say lightening my tone. "Explain to me the situation with our current forces."

His expression turns complacent as he replies.

(Riko) "We currently have 13 members in the Inuzuka Clan each with there Ninken, 8 members in the Hyuga Clan and 3 members from the Yuki Clan waiting in a location outside the village." He sighs and continues. "As for the Uchiha, Senju and Uzumaki we have lost all of our members in there villages."

"Indeed that isn't good." I sigh aswell then ask. "What about the remnants of the Inoraben and the Inibangun Branches?"

His eyes instantly brighten. 'sigh he really is an open book.'

(Riko) "We have heard that the remnants from both Branches are heading to Konoha as we speak and will be meeting up with the Yuki Clan and wait for further instructions."

'Hmmm this is good, we have enough member to gain influence and secure a position in Konoha.' I start think but as I notice the weird look give by Riko I ask.

"Can you give me a full rundown of our forces in s.h.i.+n.o.bi ranks?"

(Riko) "Immediately Lord, we currently have 2 Elite Jonin, 5 Jonin, 1 Special Jonin, 2 Chunin and 3 Genin in the Inuzuka, we also have 1 Elite Jonin, 2 Jonin, 4 Chunin and 1 Genin in the Hyuga Clan." He then takes a deep breath before continuing "The Yuki Clan have 1 Jonin and 2 Genin and the Inibangun have 1 Elite Jonin, 2 Jonin and 2 Chunin and the Inoraben only have 2 Jonin. In total that is 4 Elite Jonin, 12 Jonin, 1 Special Jonin, 8 Chunin and 6 Genin."

'Hmmm lastly I think I should get a better ideal of our members positioning in the clans.' I think whilst rubbing my chin.

"What are our positions in the Inuzuka and Hyuga clans?"

(Riko) "We have 1 member with a council seat in the Hyuga Clan and 2 in the Inuzuka Clan one of which is me."

"What of their Pack Positions?"

(Riko) "The Hyuga member is of Old Blood and the other Inuzuka is of Old Blood aswell."

(Small Planning Info Dump Ahead)

'Ok so 1st I need to meet with the other Jonin members so I can gain an understanding on the situation in our Clan. 2nd I need to bring the members of the Pack outside of Konoha back into the fold. 3rd I need to regain Pack leaders.h.i.+p over the Inuzuka Clan. 4th I have to build up influence in the Hyuga Clan and 5th I need to start digging out Root'

'Ok I have good all around skills in terms of physical combat but am lacking in mental and energy based attack and defence techniques.'

As I'm thinking this I come up with a plan in me head. That plan is;

1. Build up personal Strength which is split up into different areas, which are 1. Close Combat (Gathering different combat techniques for different weapons and sparring with higher level opponents), 2. Ranged Combat (Gathering different combat techniques for different weapons and using them to hunt), 3. Metal Combat (Gaining more Genjutsu), 4. Elemental Combat (Gaining more Elemental Jutsu and practicing Shadow Magic), 5. Soul Combat (Zanpakto), 6. Movement Techniques (Gain more movement techniques and practicing Body Flicker Technique and Shadow Walk) and 7. Escape Techniques (Practic Earth based Jutsu and Body Replacement/Transformation Technique).

2. Build up political strength. This will be done using my subordinates in the Inuzuka Clan and the Hyuga Clan to make him more influential and also by becoming friends with the clan heirs.

3. Build up Militaristic Strength. This will be done by getting my subordinates to train in a more hard-core manner and recruiting new members to the Pack.

4. Establish a home.

5. Gain Finacial Support. This will be done by gaining money on missions and investing that money in different shops, restaurants around the village to become a proper company.

'Ok so first I need to talk to Tsume and gain some different Jutsu scrolls to learn along with meeting the Hokage and becoming a member of Anbu along with establis.h.i.+ng a clan at a later date.'

(Info Dump Over)

I snap out of my train of thought to find Riko staring at me in a slightly worried manner. Flas.h.i.+ng a smile to rea.s.sure him I say.

"Let's head back to the Clan there are a few things we need to discuss with Tsume."

(Riko) "Yes Lord."

We spend the next 30 minutes walking back to the Clan in silence.

Once we reach Tsume's residence I finally speak.

"Riko report to the Hokage that I would like to him to come to Tsume Inuzuka's house to watch the discussion I'm about to have and after that go gather the Clan members inside the Inuzuka Clan and bring them here. But make sure to tell the Hokage that i would like him to not be seen by Tsume until i call him."

(Riko) "Yes Lord."

After he leaves I turn to the door and knocks. Hearing the sound of footsteps from behind me I look to see a young boy with two fang marks on his face.

(?) "Who are you?" He asks in an aggressive tone.

"My name is Rajen Inab.i.+.c.hi a guest of your mother's and am here to speak with her."

(Kiba) "My mother is relaxing right now so you should wait until she comes to see you!!"

"You should watchs your tone little boy and I will warn that if you keep pus.h.i.+ng me I'll show you why you should avoid angering guests."

After this I hear the sound of the door opening and a soft voice that says.

(?) "Both of you stop now!"

Turning around to look at the origin of the voice I see a beautiful young woman who looks a lot like Tsume.

Noticing my gaze the young woman blushes and says.

(?) "h.e.l.lo my name is Hana Inuzuka nice to meet you and that idiot over there is my brother Kiba Inuzuka."

(Kiba) "Who are you calling an idiot?"

(Hana) "Shut up, you were rude to a guest. Now Mr Rajen if you would follow me I'll take you to see mother."

"Thank you " I say as I follow behind Hana leaving behind an angered Kiba.

A few minutes later we arrive In a very plain room with only a mat in the centre of it. As I enter I emidiatly see Tsume sitting on that mat and immediately sit across from her and with Kenron at my side, I also see Hana take a seat directly besides her mother.

(Tsume) "This is a surprise Rajen I didn't expect you to come visit until tomorrow and would you mind introducing me to this young pup?"

"I have I few important things to discuss with you Tsume and I believe I should let him introduce himself to you."

(Kenron) "h.e.l.lo I'm Kenron and I am Big Brother's favourite." he says in a happy tone whilst glaring at Hana for some unkown reason.

I look over to see surprise on Hana's face and turn to Tsume and ask.

"You haven't told her about me?"

(Tsume) "No I wanted it to be a surprise." She says with a small giggle.

(Hana) "But .. wa ... uh?" She says with an adorably confused expression.

Trying not to laugh I explain the situation.

"I guess it's time for a proper introduction. My name is Rajen Inab.i.+.c.hi Omega of the Pack and the Head of the Inab.i.+.c.hi Clan."

Hana's eyes widen in further surprise before she turns to her mother for confirmation and she instantly stands and bows to me saying.

(Hana) "I apologise for me and my brothers rude behaviour early."

At this moment I burst out laughing.

"Oh G.o.d." As I continue laughing. "Your just so serious. It's fine I don't like formality anyway." As I calm down I continue further saying. "Let's talk for a while and get to know each other before we discuss serious business."

(Both) "Agreed"

And like that we spend the next hour talk about many different subjects such as favourite foods, stories about Ninken and stories about Kiba and Hana.

We finally stop we I hear Riko walking down the corridor towards the room.

"And I believe it's time."

(Tsume) "Time for what?" as she looks at the now open door she exclaims. "Elder Riko, Elder Brak what are you doing bringing so many clan members to my house?" She stands up glaring at them.

But before anything bad happens I explain.

"I brought them here to help me explain my serious business."

(Tsume) "What do you mean?"

"You'll understand in a second so sit back down for now and let them enter."

(Tsume) "But..." she starts to argue before retaking her see glare at the newly arrived group.

The group enter and stand to the side of the room before I start my statement saying.

"As Saturobi has most likely told you we Inab.i.+.c.hi have protected the village from the outside as you Inuzuka have from within, but that isn't the full story of the Pack if you would like to here it?"

Tsume nods before I continue "There are four branches of the Pack which are the Inab.i.+.c.hi, Inuzuka, Inoraben and the Inibangun.

We were living during the wars before the founding of Konohagakure as a neutral party in the wars. After the founding members of the Senju and Uchiha Clans visited us to ask for our loyalty to the village. We accepted under one condition, that condition was that for the first two generations the Inuzuka Clan would be the only group moving to Konoha as you have the most tame Ninken but also as we needed to make sure Konoha was worthy of being considered part of the Pack."

Tsume eyes turn colder after that and I continue. "This work and our ancestors came to truly believe that Konoha is part of the Pack. The plan changed however after the First Great Ninja War when the only living people inside Konoha who remembered the other 3 clans died making our clan disappear from Konoha's history as a myth and legend."

After listening to this Tsume says.

(Tsume) "What does that have to do with those clan members?"

"Well we'll find that out after we have then all introduce themselves." I say whilst giving a nod to Riko.

(Riko) "My name is Riko Inuzuka, a Jonin level s.h.i.+n.o.bi and an Old Blood of the Pack, I greet the Omega."

(Brak) "My name is Brak Inuzuka, an Elite Jonin level s.h.i.+n.o.bi and an Mature Blood of the Pack, I greet the Omega."

(?) "My name is Sena Inuzuka, an Elite Jonin level s.h.i.+n.o.bi and a Full Blood of the Pack, I greet the Omega."

(?) "My name is Kei Inuzuka, a Jonin level s.h.i.+n.o.bi and a Mature Blood of the Pack, I greet the Omega."

(?) "My name is Chikafusa Inuzuka, a Jonin level s.h.i.+n.o.bi and a Old Blood of the Pack, I greet the Omega."

(?) "My name is Haruki Inuzuka, a Jonin level s.h.i.+n.o.bi and a Partial Blood of the Pack."

(?) "My name is Masato Inuzuka, a Jonin level s.h.i.+n.o.bi and a Full Blood of the Pack, I greet the Omega."

(?) "My name is Gou Inuzuka, a Chunin level s.h.i.+n.o.bi and a Partial Blood of the Pack, I greet the Omega."

(?) "My name is Ryota Inuzuka, a Special Jonin level s.h.i.+n.o.bi and a Young Blood of the Clan."

(?) "My name is Nozomi Inuzuka, a Chunin level s.h.i.+n.o.bi and a Young Blood of the Pack, I greet the Omega."

(?) "My name is Hiroyuki Inuzuka, a Genin level s.h.i.+n.o.bi and a New Blood of the Pack, I greet the Omega."

(?) "My name is Natsumi Inuzuka, a Genin level s.h.i.+n.o.bi and a New Blood of the Pack, I greet the Omega."

(?) "My name is Tomo Inuzuka, a Genin level s.h.i.+n.o.bi and a New Blood of the Pack, I greet the Omega."

I look over all of them with a frown and ask.

"Ryouta would you mind telling me your specialisation?"

(Ryouta) " Yes Lord I have specialised in medical Ninjutsu to a Elite Jounin Level!"

I show a bit of surprise on my face. ' Why isn't his rank Partial Blood yet then.'

"If you have an Elite Jonin level medical Ninjutsu why are you still a Young Blood then?"

(Ryouta) "That is because I have a fear if blood Lord." Whilst looking away embarest.

"Now why do you look away?"

(Ryouta) "Because I an a shame to the Pack and all medical-nin."

"Oh that is not true as from what I've heard even the Sannin Tsunade who is known as the greatest medical-nin has a fear of blood so why should that stop you? I have decided, Ryouta Inuzuka, you are now a Partial Blood of the Pack."

Ryouta's expression turns from sadness to pure joy as he loudly exclaims.

(Ryouta) "Thank You Lord."

"You deserve it an we will work on your fear in the fu....."

Tsume who is still sitting to the side screams.

(Tsume) "STOP INGORING ME ABD EXPLAIN NOW!!!"

"Sorry about that. As you can see the know of me and my position and are clearly my subordinates, why is the first response you probably have and to answer that I need to explain the Pack's history. The pack was started by the man Tsuyami Inab.i.+.c.hi my great great great great grandfather and your great great great grandfather Tsume. He had four Sons who loved the Pack very much as there Fathers creation, there names are Ookami (Wolf) Inab.i.+.c.hi my great great great grandfather, Inu (Dog) Inuzuka your great great grandfather, Kitsune (Fox) Inoraben and Yasei (Wild Dog) Inibangun who all had Ninken represented by there names. As there branches started to grow they decided that the Pack needed leaders.h.i.+p, due to the Wolf being there fathers Ninken it was decided that the Inab.i.+.c.hi would become the royal bloodline of the Pack and because of this the Pack's tasks got split into 3 sections the first being the Military taken up by the Inibangun, the second are the guard taken up by the Inuzuka and finally the Economic/Intelligence taken up by the Inoraben. Keeping up so far?"

Tsume and Hana nod in unison.

"Now when our clans lost our contact we had to change our method of protecting the Pack. The way we started were to separate the three remaining branches in a triangular formation around Konoha. After this we started to infiltrate the Clans that we have blood ties with, these are the Inuzuka, Senju, Hyuga, Inuzuka, Uzumaki and Yuki. After that we slowly start building more strength whilst carrying on protecting the Pack."

I look away with sad eyes [A.U. This would be a good time to mention that when he changed himself into the Inab.i.+.c.hi Head at the start part of his personality changed to fit it too hence his #realtiers].

"But that where it all started to go wrong. The Inoraben were first to fall, it was a SS grade Chakra Beast. The Inoraben mainly being focused on Stealth and a.s.sa.s.sination Techniques were slaughtered before our other forces arrive to defeat the beast but after that only 20 or so remain out of about 400 members, these remain member moved to live with the Inibangun Branch. But soon after that The Inibangun fell too this time was during the Second Great Ninja War by Hanzo the Salamander. His camp was attack by one of the Inibangun s.h.i.+n.o.bi and he managed to track the back to there village and after his attack he only left about 30 Inibangun and 15 Inoraben alive but many were injured. Last to fall were us the Inab.i.+.c.hi we were kill be a group called Akatsuki and were slaughtered leaving only me alive along with what I found out earlier being 7 Inibangun and 2 Inoraben left so I decided to end our life of secrecy and join Konoha officially reuniting the Pack. Any Questions?"

Tsume looks up at me with extremely saddened eyes before saying.

(Tsume) "I heard them say Something Blood of the Pack, what does that mean?"

"Well the are our version of s.h.i.+n.o.bi ranks that refer to achievements and wisdom over power. The ranks are Pup which is referring to Clan Civilians, New Blood which have the same status as Genin, Young Blood which have the same status as Chunin, Partial Blood which have the same status as Special Jonin, Full Blood which have the same status as Jonin, Mature Blood which have the same status as Elite Jonin or Normal Anbu, Old Blood which have the same status as Jonin Commanders or Elite Anbu, Elder Blood which habe the same status as The Jonin General and Anbu Commanders, Beta which have the same status as people like The Clan Heads of Konoha or people the Hokage has great trust in like Danzo s.h.i.+mura, Alpha which have the same status as the Anbu General and finally Omega who is the equivalent of the Hokage. Any more quests?"

Surprisingly Hana Answers this time.

(Hana) "How many pack members are remaining in total?" She asks in a sad tone.

"Like the other clans we were hit very hard in the 3rd Great Ninja War and only have 13 remaining in the Inuzuka Clan and 8 remaining in the Hyuga Clan. We have another 3 from the destroyed Yuki Clan aswell."

After these worlds Tsume asks.

(Tsume) "What are your plans now?"

"I would first like to speak to the Hokage."

As I say this Hiruzen steps out of the shadow and sits next to Tsume.

"My plan begins with meeting up with the Clan members outside of Konoha and having us become an official Clan of Konoha as we all have a version of the Inuzuka senses."

After saying this I look over too Hiruzen.

(Hiruzen) "That can be arranged."

"After that I would like to bring members of the Inuzuka back into the Pack but that can wait until I have proven myself as Omega. Finally I would like to enter a Genin team to allow me to train up in a proper environment."

(Tsume) "I agree we shall be watch to see whether you are worthy to lead us."

(Hiruzen) "I will also be watching and will allow you to join one of the new Genin teams in 2 months time."

After this Hiruzen stands up and leaves the room giving a small wave on the way out.
