9 The Past, Present and Future

(4 Months Later)

(3rd Person)

Rajen can be seen training with Gai. They are sparring using only Taijutsu techniques, currently Rajen is using the Kagune Combat Technique while Gai is using the Advanced Konoha Taijutsu Technique.

They back away from each other Rajen breathing heavily.

"That's enough for now, it's almost time for you to go for your next mission right Gai?"

(Gai) "Indeed Kid, I'll see you soon." He replies before sprinting away.

Looking at Gai's retreating figure Rajen sighs. Him and Gai had become fast friends over the months, they have slowly started to trust each other and Gai is becoming a true member of the Pack.

Rajen slowly turns around and starts walking towards the small river behind their training area. Once he reaches there he starts to wash himself. During these months he has grown to an alarming degree, so much that it can be visibly seen on his body. He has a lean figure with no wasted fat and a sleek layer of muscle covering his entire body. He has an extremely well developed torso, thigh and calf muscles are well defined with no excess. Rajen has also grown more manly in this time with a sharper jaw line and better defined cheek bones. Although the changes aren't only physical.

After finishing his wash up Rajen starts to head towards his shack in the Inuzuka Compound. He has a calm and peaceful look on his face as he travels through the wilderness.

'It's almost time' Rajen sighed. The Pack is currently growing at a steady rate, they currently own 20% of the businesses in Konoha as well as multiple shops in the Fire Nations capital and the other hidden villages. The Pack has also started buying different suppliers for there different businesses. The shinobi side of the Pack has also grown at an alarming rate as they currently control another 2 of the 7 Elders of the Inuzuka Clan as well as another 1 from the Hyuga Clan. Along with these Elders they have recruited another 9 Jonin, 12 Chunin, 5 Genin and 2 Special Jonin from the 2 Clans (Inuzuka - 6 Jonin, 8 Chunin and 3 Genin. Hyuga - 3 Jonin, 4 Chunin, 2 Genin and 2 Special Jonin). Also they have recruited 2 Chunin and 1 Genin from the Saturobi Clan, 1 Jonin, 5 Chunin and 3 Genin from the Yamanaka Clan, 1 Jonin, 2 Chunin and 1 Genin from the Aburame Clan, 4 Chunin and 2 Genin from the Akimichi Clan and 1 Elite Jonin, 3 Jonin, 6 Chunin, 2 Genin and 1 Special Jonin for the Nara Clan. As Well as this they have managed to recruit Gantetsu of the Shinobazu a Jonin level Missing Nin. Other than this the Pack has established 3 members inside the Iwagakure Shinobi Forces as well as gaining trust from the Tsuchigumo Clan, although they haven't found the Iburi Clan yet.

During these past 4 months Rajen has not only gotten stronger but has also gained Better connections. He has become quite good friends with Ino, Shikamaru, Choji and Naruto. Although he had to confirm to Hiruzen that he had no enmity against the later.

Rajen carries on strolling with almost leisure but almost anybody could tell the opposite. He has something important to do.

Arriving at his shack Rajen finds 3 people in front of him. These people are Sena, Brak and Honeto.

"I have brought you all he to discuss an important assignment." He pauses and scans the room. "We are establishing direct contact with the Inoraben. Tomorrow I will be leaving the village to meet with their Elder. Sena, I would like you to gather me 2 Jonin to accompany me for this."

(Sena) "Yes Lord Omega."

"Good, Brak I will need you to inform Hiruzen and keep people away from my shack for the majority of tomorrow and Honeto I will require for you to follow me tomorrow as well."

(Honeto/Riko) "Yes Lord."

"You will all meet me here at 0600 tomorrow after completing your tasks. Dismissed."

The all bow there heads to the young boy before quickly leaving the room.

Rajen sighs before heading off to his room to get some sleep.

(6am the next day)

At the edge of the village, Rajen is being quietly escorted out of the eastern entrance of Konoha.

They slowly travel along a straight path which leads to a small mountain 30km outside of Konoha's boarder.

The Group walks for around 2 hours before reaching a narrow valley. As they continue walking Rajen and his group suddenly get the eerie feeling that there being watched.

Suddenly multiple shinobi exit appear surrounding the group in a matter of seconds. The leader, a young women found by a small snow white fox begins to speak.

(?) "Who are you." she asks in a threatening tone.

Rajan coldly snorts then replies.

"I see your scouting is as good as ever Inoraben, but threatening the Omega isn't the best idea now, is it."

The women widens her eyes before making some hand gestures to the other surrounding shinobi. The surroundings become less tense as one by one the surrounding shinobi exit, leaving only the young leader, a middle aged man and another young women.

"I believe it has been 7 years now hasn't it Kimiko?" Rajen asks in a sad tone.

Kimiko (the young leader) replies.

(Kimiko) "It indeed has Rajen."

They look at each other with an awkward silence for a few minutes.

"Now! Would you mind introducing me to your companions, Dear Elder."

Kimiko smirks before replying.

(Kimiko) "Anything for you Lord Omega." Bowing before gesturing to the man. "This man is known as Ohta Yuki and the current leader of the Yuki Clan forces." She then gestures to the women. "and this is Shoko Inibangun the current highest ranking member of the Inibangun."

(Ohta/Shoko) "Greetings Lord Omega."

Rajen nods slightly before turning his head and nodding.

The next moment Honeto appears next to Rajen.

"Kimiko, let me introduce you to one of my top advisers and the highest ranking member of the Hyuga Clan in The Pack Honeto."

Rajen turns to Honeto and gestures to speak.

(Honeto) "Greatings Elder, My name is Honeto Hyuga." She says with a bow.

Rajen then turns around and gestures for Sena to step towards the group. Sena shuffles forward and speaks.

(Sena) " Greatings Elder, my name is Sena Inuzuka." She greets in a worried tone.

Rajen smiles before turning back to Kimiko.

"Sena is one of the up and coming stars of the Inuzuka and is one of the joint heads of our Espionage Department and is doing well recruiting outside forces into the fold."

Kimiko smiles towards Rajen then bows.

(Kimiko) "It's lovely to meet you both."

The group then move further into the valley which opens up into a grand lake and water feature along this a crudely built camp.

The group slowly moves through the camp towards a large tent in the centre. When they enter, they are greeted with a long table with documents placed everywhere.

Sitting down with Rajen at the head of the table with Kimiko to his right and Honeto to his left.

"The reason we have come today Kimiko is to discuss the current situation of the three clans as well as gathering up resources for reintegration into The Pack."

Rajen then turns to Kimiko.

"I would like a full report of the current resources and influence of the three clans."

Kimiko grabs two of the many boxes of documents scattered around the room. She opens them to find many financial reports as well as deeds to buildings and companies.

(Kimiko) "We currently have 5,000,000 Ryo in liquid funds from the remaining Inabichi, Inibangun and Inoraben treasuries. We have also gain 400,000 Ryo from the Yuki."

Kimiko looks towards Rajen, who nods for he to continue.

(Kimiko) "Currently we posses two large companies that are based in Land of Earth and the Land of Fire. we also control 1 medium company and 2 small companies between these two cities. Other than that we control 1 medium sized company in the Land of Iron, 2 medium companies and 1 small company in the Land of Wind, 1 small company in the Land of Hot Water, Land of Frost, Land of Rivers, Land of Sound, Land of Water, Land of Keys, Land of Grass, Land of Dreams, Land of Stones, Land of Bears and the Land of Rain respectively. Also we have 1 medium company in the Land of Snow as well as having 1 medium and 1 small in the Land of Lightning. In total that comes to 2 large companies, 6 medium and 15 small companies, bringing in a total profit of 3,000,000,000 Ryo annually."

Kimiko once again turns to look at Rajen.

"Good, over the next few months start integrating all of the companies within there respective countries into one and start getting them to more aggressively acquire more assets. Please Continue."

(Kimiko) "The current land that we have acquired separately from companies are mainly focused in the Capitals of the Fire, Wind, Earth, Iron, Lightning and Water. In Fire we own 2 large buildings, 6 large plots of land, 3 medium sized buildings, 4 medium plots of land, 13 small buildings and 8 small plots of land. In Wind we own 1 large buildings, 3 large plots of land, 1 medium sized buildings, 2 medium plots of land, 6 small buildings and 5 small plots of land.

In total we own 11 large buildings, 25 large plots of land, 21 medium sized buildings, 20 medium plots of land, 52 small buildings and 38 small plots of land."

Rajen nods his head with a contemplative look.

"Good, giving out the small and medium plots and buildings to the different companies leaving 1 small and medium plot in each city. With the small plots I would like you to start building underground safehouses and with the medium build a warehouse to store supplies for our shinobi when there on missions."

Rajen looks to Kimiko before turning back to the group.

"The large buildings and plots will be kept unused for the time being before we establish enough power inside it country to effectively use them."

(Kimiko) "Finally I'll discuss our influence in each of the countries. We currently control a force of 300 Samurai in the Land of Iron, out of these we have 230 Apprentice level Samurai (Genin), 40 Soldier Level Samurai (Chunin), 20 Swordsman Level Samurai (Special Jonin), 7 Elite Level Samurai (Jonin), 2 Veteran Level Samurai (Elite Jonin/Anbu) and 1 Master Level Samurai (Jonin Commander/Elite Anbu).

"This is good. Once we get our medical facilities up and running we are going to need to find a cure."

(Kimiko) "From Sunagakure we control 100 Shinobi and 10 Puppet Masters, which are 60 Genin, 24 Chunin, 10 Jonin, 3 Elite Jonin, 1 Anbu and 2 Jonin Commanders. The Puppet Masters are 5 Apprentice Level Puppet Masters (Genin), 3 Hand Level Puppet Masters (Chunin), 1 Elite Level Puppet Master (Jonin) and 1 Marionette Level Puppet Master (Jonin Commander). Also from Kumogakure we control 140 Shinobi, which are 95 Genin, 30 Chunin, 10 Jonin, 2 Anbu, 1 Elite Jonin, 1 Jonin Comander and 1 Elite Anbu. From Yugakure we control 20 Shinobi, 10 Genin, 8 Chunin and 2 Jonin. From Yumegakure we control 10 Shinobi, 7 Genin, 1 Chunin, 1 Special Jonin and 1 Jonin.

From Takumi Village we control 50 Artisans, 20 Student Level Artisens (Genin) which are split as 4 Blacksmith, 3 Tailors, 3 Hunters, 2 Jewellers, 2 Painters, 2 Chefs , 1 Sculptor, 1 Bowyer, 1 Seal Master and 1 Architect. 10 Apprentice Level Artisens (Chunin) which are 2 Blacksmith, 1 Tailor, 1 Hunter, 1 Bowyer, 1 Chef, 1 Seal Master, 1 Architect, 1 Sculptor and 1 Miner. 8 Adept Level Artisans (Special Jonin) which are 1 Blacksmith, 1 Tailor, 1 Hunter, 1 Bowyer, 1 Chef, 1 Seal Master, 1 Jeweller and 1 Painter. 5 Elite Level Artisans (Jonin) which are 1 Blacksmith, 1 Tailor, 1 Seal Master, 1 Chef and 1 Poet. 4 Expert Level Artisans (Elite Jonin) which are 1 Blacksmith, 1 Tailor, 1 Seal Master and 1 Architect. 2 Master Level Artisans (Jonin Commander) which are 1 Tailor and 1 Hunter. Finally we have a Grandmaster Level Seal Master."

Hearing the last sentence Rajens eyes light up.

"Great! This will speed up my immediate plans and help progress some of the future plans too."

Kimiko nods but does not ask any questions.

(Kimiko) "Next we have Shimogakure where we control 20 Shinobi, which are 8 Genin, 7 Chunin, 3 Jonin and 2 Elite Jonin. After that we have 10 Shinobi from Otogakure all of which are Jonin. From Kusagakure we control 20 Shinobi, which are 16 Genin, 3 Chinin and 1 Special Jonin.

We also have an alliance with Hanzo the Salamander and due to that we won't get obstructed when recruiting."

After hearing this Rajen looks to his companions from Konoha with a worried expression.

"We will not be mentioning Hanzo to any of the Konohagakure Pack members for now. He and Konaha have a deep history and many people will hate what he has done in the past. For now only allow our outside force to recruit from Amegakure."

Rajen looks over to Kimiko before continuing.

"We need to carry on passive recruiting efforts in all areas, but Amegakure. Other than this I would like to focus recruiting efforts on Yukigakure, Yugakure and Takumi Village. We will try to fully control Yugakure as soon as possible to use as a staging ground for any advanced operations in the future. I would also like you to start looking into stable freelancers that we could recruit."

Rajen stands up and looks around to each of the members.

"I would like to speak with the Elder alone please."

A few minutes later all who remain in the room are Rajen and Kimiko. Rajen looks over at Kimiko with sad eyes.

"Were there deaths painless?" Rajen whispers.

Kimiko looks at him surprised. But doesn't reply, only looking down to the floor.

Rajen's eyes dim further. He walks over to his companion slowly. Kimiko keeps quite unsure of what's happening. Rajen keeps walking slowly across the room, only coming to a stop before Kimiko, where he leans towards and takes her into his arms.

"Eep" she squeals before falling further into his embrace. Rajen slowly rubs her back.

"Your fine now Kimiko, I'm here." Rajen comforts his grief stricken friend. Hearing his kind, calm words the small girl bursts into tiers slowly squeezing Rajen harder, bringing more pain to the boy that is weaker that her. But Rajen just stay there taking all the pain from the sobbing Elite Jonin confront of him.

Minutes pass on this position, as Rajen comforts his friend, he realizes the she has fallen asleep in his arms.

Lifting her slowly he makes his way over to her bed before carefully placing her down.

After this Rajen stands up and exits the tent.
