"Be careful, you three," she said.

"Let's go, you two," I said.
"Who are we looking for?" Kakashi asked once we were out of earshot of Kushina.
"Canao," I replied.
"Isn't that the name of a dragon?" Kakashi asked.
"It is. Canao is specifically Ares' dragon," I replied.
"I thought he was dead," Kakashi said.
"As did I," I said.
"How is he still alive?" Minato asked.
"Ares," I replied.
"I'm not sure I follow," Minato said.
"A Rider is linked with whichever dragon chooses them. If one survives, so does the other," I elaborated.
"I see," he said.
"No one outside the Riders know this so please don't speak of it to anyone else," I requested.
"Of course," they replied in unison.
"We have to move quickly now," I said, picking up the pace.
"You've gotten faster," Minato said.
"You have just gotten slow, Lord Hokage," I said.
"Oh really?" He asked.
"Yes, sir," I replied.
"What is it?" Minato asked.
"Rule 16," I said.
"Where?" Kakashi asked.
"Ten meters ahead and closing in fast," I replied.
"Sensei?" Kakashi asked.
"Up to you, Ice," Minato said.
"I'll handle it," I said, going ahead. It didn't take me long to incapacitate the small team of Iwa ninja and make sure they wouldn't follow us too far outside the Leaf Village or leave the Land of Fire's territory until what they were doing was found out and deemed safe for the village.
"Right on time," Kakashi said.
"You should know I work quickly," I said.
"I'm aware of it," he said.
"Good. We're almost to Canao now," I said.
"How can you tell?" Minato asked.
"I'm a Sensory type," I replied. "I can sense everything from the bugs hidden in the trees to something the size of a full grown dragon."
"You managed to do that in under a year?" Kakashi asked curiously.
"Correct," I replied.
Child, Canao said once we were on top of the Hokage Mountain.
"Hello, Canao," I greeted.
Who are these new ones? He asked.
"My father and my Mate," I replied.
They are trustworthy? He asked.
"They are," I answered.
What is it you want to know? Canao questioned.
"Does he know?" I asked.
He does, Canao replied. I breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay. Is he okay?" I asked.
