Roxl sat on the front porch. He had been at the party, but there were too many people for his chlaustrophobia to handle. So again he sat out on the porch, desperately hoping someone would come and talk to him.

Jay walked outside. It was too crowded and she was needed some air. She didn't expect to see anyone out there but when she saw Roxl she gave a friendly. "Hey," unlike when she was a littl;e brat.

Roxl looked up at Jay from where he was sitting. "Hello."

Jay sat beside him. "Hi." She gave a smile and sighed. "Sure is crowded in there," she said with another sigh.

"Anymore people and I wouldv'e had a heart attack..." He sighed. He had thought about telling Jay, Sky, Jutsu, and all of his friends something but thought against it until after the battle thta was sur to come.

"What are thinking about? She asked seeing tha expression on his face.

"Oh nothing...you'll find out in time." He sighed again. "So whats up?"

"Nothing really. Just alot of busy work, being an ANBU, a mom, stuff like that." She sighed.

"Wow, pretty easy lifestyle."

"hello roxl.said pain looking at him menacingly."what seems to be the problem?i have a question.........................are you a kage?"roxl could probably be able to see through pain's horror,despite the fact he's very hard to read.

Jay looked at Pain with cold eyes. "What do you want and who invited you?"

I've been a kage 8 times in this life, yes." he emphasized life. "Jay, be calm."

Jay took a deep breath. She didn't like Pain next to hating Deidara. "I'm calm, but if he stays her one more second I might just loose that control."

Roxl looks hard into Jay's eyes, silencing her. "What do you want Pain?"

"i don't have to be inivited.i'm waiting for the stealth kage.

"And what do you want with her?"

"and also,have you seen this boy?"pain pulls out a picture of child roxas.

Jay nearly lost it when he meantioned her mother."What do you want with my mother?"

"......................if your not her..then it's none of your concern.now have you seen this boy?"

Roxl put a hand on Jay. "Please do not forget that your mom is no longer the Kage." He looks at Pain. "No I haven't. Now leave."

pain burns the picture of roxas."where is the nearest kage?is it you?"

"The nearest kage would be Tenkuu. But I'm sorry, you are not invited. Now leave before I make you leave."

"hmph...i can say you'd be no match.....but all of you who support this communist society will feel pain......"pain disappears into the shadows.

(LOL I forgot Tenkuu was Kage.)


Jay glared at Pain but started to calm down. She was about to get up and go after him but stopped herself and sighed. "So much for a truce."

Roxl looks up at the moon. "Jay, I need you to help me with something."
