A young, black haired girl quietly swept her master's home. The man that had taken her in was Asuma Sarutobi, but he was kind to her. To pay back her debts, Asuma allowed her to clean his home every Tuesday. Today, Asuma was off on a mission to search for the Akatsuki fools, and the house was quiet, except for Mistress Kurenai in her bedroom asleep. She was ten weeks pregant, and the girl, Aiko, was allowed to care for Kurenai. A knock onthe door caught her attention. She walked over to the door, and opened it to see an ANBU soldier stare her in the eyes. 'Hell-Hello..Master Sarutobi is not home right now, but Mistress Kurenai is alseep right now." The ANBU soldier does a slow motion, and says to Aiko, "Lady Tsunade requests Lady Kurenai's presence.." The maid nodded and quickly left to her Master's bedroom. "Mistress Kurenai, are you awake? Several ANBU soldiers are here to take you to Lady Tsunade.." Kurenai turned to look at her maid, her light skin and black eyes burning with anxiety. Kurenai stood, and dismissed Aiko. Aiko did not want to stay with the quiet ANBU soldiers, so she left to the Academy. She was a chunin, but Lady Tsunade never assigned her to a team, nor sent her on missions. Aiko was just fine with that."Hey, Konohamaru!!" She said exictedly. The boy turned around with a big grin on his face. "Hey Aiko!!" They ran towards each other and hugged. "Wow, haven't seen ya in a loong time!" Konohamaru said, remembering the Chunin Exams. Meanwhile, Lady Tsunade had very unseeming news...."Lady Kurenai, I have decided that since I have no relatives younger than I, I have decided that, since Asuma is related to Lord Third, I have chosen your unborn child to be the next Jinchuriki for the Nine Tailed Demon Fox...."
