Naruto: Legacy of the Kazama Clan

Epilogue: Demon or not... Get used to it...

Uchiha Kazama Kyo stared far away. His mother and father, both of them having at one-time been Jinchuukiri and now were the Bijuu themselves, had left Konoha and most likely the whole shinobi continent. They had left behind their individual summoning contracts. Kyo had taken the phoenix summoning contract and Mikoto had taken the fox summoning contract.

Currently, Kyo was one of the Sannin of Konoha, having picked up after Jiraiya. Saigo had taken up the second position as a Sannin of Konoha as well. Sukomi was a jounin-sensei and had been nearly driven insane by the three kids he was teaching.

Akumagan no Kyo... Demon Eyes Kyo was a nickname he had picked up for his Tokisharingan. He had not gained the Mangekyou Sharingan nor would ever gain the Mangekyou Sharingan. However, he gained access to another dojutsu, the Yonken Mangetsu Tokisharingan, which gave Kyo the ability to seemingly freeze time for a certain period of time.

Occasionally, a phoenix with seven long tail feathers was glimpsed occasionally over Konoha while foxes abounded in the forest of Konoha, protecting the former home of their current mistress.

Saigo and Kyo had moved into the same apartment but for some accursed reason, he was unable to confess his feelings, no matter how big they swelling. He had summoned his father on more than one occasion to get some advice. Needless to say, Uchiha Itachi's ideas involved spending a romantic evening in a love hotel... Suffice to say, Kyo didn't inherit his father's audacity to do some of the most outrageous things in his life.

Mikoto was still single. Shiori, their mother, had dropped by occasionally to check up on them. The elder female Uchiha preferred to remain unseen. However... there was this one incident in the mountain country of Kumo where a nine-tailed fox had been seen, smashing away at mountains and tearing up forests in an attempt to find an offending weasel summoning.

Uchiha Keiichi spent more of his time taking care of his siblings than his career as an Anbu captain. This particular Uchiha was swamped by either pink-haired, green-eyed Sasuke clones or black eyed, black-haired Sakura clones. Take a pick. Four of them sent the poor Keiichi into hysterical fits and Sakura was expecting yet again...

Uchiha Sasuke, commanding captain of all Anbu corps and the newly reinstated Military Police of Konoha, was seen sleeping and eating fermented soybeans on the job much like an old slug-sannin used to drink sake. Brothers are alike...

Hyuuga Neji tended to philosophize about life, having compiled a book of his thoughts which was thought to be a giant rambling by most publishers. He often took it quite seriously when insulted and his Jyuuken often sent offenders running for the hills.

Nara Shikamaru never liked anything troublesome. He still spend most of his days laying around the house, the roof, and out in the fields... Well... He was still one lazy bum... An utterly completely lazy bum.

Seicho Okita had taken up his own genin team as a jounin-sensei. Needless to say, he regretted not failing them when he had the chance since they drove him to the brink of insanity. He'd say that his own jounin-sensei made it look easy...

Himura Ryo was always a hardcore girl. She had done almost everything dangerous and stupid... except wear a kimono... As stubborn as a jackass to quote a certain Seicho Okita who was later nearly disfigured, disemboweled, and dismantled with utmost outrage...

Hyuuga Hinata was thinking about a vacation. The clan council had been droning and droning like the chanters at that Buddhist temple for hours on end and it ticked her to no end. She had simply sat Hanabi in her place and walked off with the grace of the Hyuuga matriarch. The clan council didn't notice.

Uchiha Sakura, formerly Haruno, was a medic-nin surpassing even Tsunade of the legendary Sannin. She had pioneered surgery methods and healing methods for diseases and wounds alike, further reducing casaulty rates. In her anger at Uchiha Sasuke, who happened to say something wrong, Uchiha Sakura had destroyed a ten foot portion of the Konoha wall with a part of her super-strength. The damages at the end of the day could have paid for the expenses of the entire Fire country and some of the other countries...

Inuzuka Kiba still worked with his long-time teammate Aburame Shino. Unfortunately, he still couldn't decipher the Aburame's slight movements and ended up ignoring everything. One time, he stepped on one of Shino's rarer bugs. Surprisingly, Konoha thought that a locust storm was passing through when a giant cloud covered the area. The cloud happened to be Shino's kikaichu and Kiba found himself nursing hives and bites the next day, along with chakra exhaustion...

Yamanaka Ino ran a well-off flower shop as per usual. She had stopped being a ninja after she failed her third jounin exam since she had lost interest in a career as a kunoichi, ninja in the night... Currently though, her occupation includes telling a lazy jounin strategist to move his lazy arse and get to work or she would do the unspeakable to him. Shikamaru didn't mind her most of the time...

Akamichi Chouji ran a famous chain of BBQ, using his standards. The standards of Akamichi are high when it comes to food. They're so high that most restaurants would shut down because of the constant demand. However, he still hadn't changed. He was still that hearty giant with a kind disposition. He still ran people over with his Meatball Tank Skill if they even insinuated that he was 'fat'...

Ten-ten was a jounin and a weaponsmith as well. She made kunai so sharp that they were almost monomolecular at the edge, allowing them to cut anything easily. Anko had taken a liking to those kunai and more people found themselves staring at a kunai that would cut them if they moved even a slight bit.

Rock Lee was still himself. He still ran laps on his hands. He still shrilled about youth. He still wore that damned green spandex of his and annoyed Hyuuga Neji for a match, another match, and another match. One just had to be damned when Rock Lee keeps wanting another match of Janken when he loses. Current score stands 5032 to 0 in favor of Hyuuga Neji...

All in all, there was only Uchiha Kazama Shiori missing along with Uchiha Itachi...

A blond walked into a bar... Ouch...

"Damn thing! I swore I ducked under the damn thing!" the blond grimaced as she rubbed her head.

Her brunette husband chuckled and hugged her, kissing her forehead.

"Now, now, sweetheart. Calm down," the man smirked.

"How can I? I just walked into a bar, for crying out loud!" she muttered.

"Sweetheart, you were daydreaming again," the dark-haired bishounen sighed as he looked up into the night sky, "this place is different from Konoha,"

"They say that this England place is quite romantic," the gold-haired woman frowned, "I only see slums,"

Uchiha Itachi sighed, "I thought you were low-maintenance,"

"Mou! I'm a woman, Itachi-kun," Shiori giggled as she pulled on a lock of black silk, "I'm not always low-maintenance,"

"Yes, you eat enough ramen to pay for a luxury dinner at a hotel," Itachi muttered, "that's low-maintenance in a high-maintenance thinking,"

"I make it worth your while," Shiori grinned as she swung over to Itachi's other side, batting her eyelashes playfully, "or do I not satisfy you?"

"Woman," Itachi growled.

Shiori sighed and stepped lightly ahead, swaying and sliding as she did so, an epitome of grace. She smiled at him and Itachi smiled back. She was his woman and he had all those smiles and hugs and kisses and the delicious and beautiful body all for himself. He entertained that line of thought before he saw Shiori laughing at a young boy's antics.

"Excuse me, pretty lady, but are you an angel?" he asked.

Shiori simply smiled, "No, sweetheart, I'm not an angel,"

Itachi simply watched. Shiori had a way with small children, raising her own and looking after others. This little child was no different. They were wearing still wearing their clothing from Konoha. He still wore his black gi and hakama and dark blue haori while Naiko wore a white version with a blue sash and with the edges embroidered. The little child laughed at something Shiori said and ran off, yelling goodbyes with delight and gratitude.

"What did you give him?" Itachi asked.

"A gold chain," Naiko replied, "his family is quite poor but they are good people,"

Itachi smiled as he felt a familiar tug. Shiori looked at him and they both knew.

In a flash of flames, they were gone, leaving nothing out of the ordinary but cinders and ashes.

Nobody but that young boy saw that and he grinned. They were angels...

A great flash of flames appeared before the Uchiha twins as they stared forward. They saw the two forms of their father and mother appear fully and they bowed in respect.

"Oh, Kyo-chan!" Shiori squealed as she glomped her son.

Itachi smirked as Mikoto gave him a peck on the cheek.

"My, you're taller than me now," Shiori looked up, "by a head, too,"

Kyo rubbed the back of his head slightly, looking like a younger version of Itachi, "Well, mother, I'm getting married soon,"

"Who's the girl?" Itachi asked.

"Saigo Ichigo," Kyo smiled as Saigo peered around Kyo's back.

All of Konoha heard the cry of the former Rokudaime Hokage of Konoha and went about their business with a renewed fervor...

"!"

"Grandchildren! Grandchildren!"

"MOTHER!"

Yep, nothing's changed...
