A/N: Hola! Rishi's here again……XD Due to the fact that 10 peoples favorite-d Why Shikamaru Is Lazy, Rishi's going to do a sequel! Whooo… (claps) I've had this idea for awhile…. I've got major writer's block, though…..Gah. Anyway, hope you enjoy! And please review!

Summary: On the fifth anniversary of Shikamaru's sister, Keiko's, death, a blood-ridden girl appears at the Nara doorstep…..literally. Could this girl be….? Sequel to Why Shikamaru Is Lazy. Implied ShikaIno.

----------------------------------------------……..FINETO!!!--------------------------------------------------

Shikamaru Nara lay in bed lazily. It's been five years…… He thought. Keiko-nee-chan…..Sis…..

"Shikamaru!" yelled Shikamaru's mother, Tsukiko. "Come down for lunch! It's almost noon!"

"Not hungry!!!" Shikamaru yelled back.

"What did you say, young man?! Don't you dare talk back!!!"

Shikamaru sighed. "I'm coming, I'm coming! …..Yeesh." Shikamaru sat up, throwing the covers off his bed. He stood up, holding his head. "Doesn't she remember that today's….?" With that, he stumbled down the stairs to the kitchen. "Morning, mom."

Tsukiko smiled gently, her eyes red. "Good morning. Please sit at the table. I'll be there in a minute."

Shikamaru nodded. He sat at the table, where his father sat patiently. "Morning." Shikaku said quietly. "I took the day off from missions…..Y'know….."

Shikamaru nodded. He understood that his father wished to be left alone. With that, he sat at the table.

A few minutes later, Tsukiko placed sausage and toast on the table and sat down. The three ate quietly, no words being spoken. They didn't need words. They all knew what everyone was thinking.

Shikaku cleared his throat. "It's been five years." He said awkwardly, rubbing his temples.

Shikamaru stood up, his food untouched. "I'll be leaving now." He said, pushing his plate away.

"Shikamaru…..Your food…" Tsukiko trailed off.

"Not hungry." With that, Shikamaru went out the door, slamming it behind him.

Tsukiko turned to Shikaku. "It really has been five years……"

Shikaku nodded. "Shikamaru…..Is so strong……"

---------------------------------………………..WRITERS BLOCK-----------------------------------------------

Shikamaru looked at the clouds above him in the field. Not many were out. It was clear, blue sky. He sighed. Keiko-nee-chan… Memories flashed before him. You were always there….Why not now? Why did you have to leave me behind and die?

Shikamaru turned around when he heard a noise. "I know you're there. Come out." He narrowed his eyes. A ninja! And of all days……

"Well? I'm waiting…."

Slowly, a tall girl with jet-black hair cut short and dazed, brown eyes came out of the bushes. Her clothes were torn and bloodied. She fell, and only Shikamaru caught her.

She's hurt…..And she has a fever! Shikamaru thought. He looked to where the girl was standing before, only to see a trail of blood that outstretched past the trees. Shikamaru's eyes widened. I'd say that trail is at least 300 meters…….

Shikamaru picked up the girl. I'll have to take her to the hospital. With that, he jumped off to the hospital. I pray that Tsunade-sama is there…..

----------------------------------------GWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-------------------------------------------

Shikamaru stood outside the girl's hospital room. "How is she?" he asked a nurse.

The nurse looked inside. "She's very injured. She also lost her voice, but Tsunade-sama said it will be back within two weeks…Are you her younger brother?"

Shikamaru flinched. "No." He said stiffly. "No, my sister's dead." With that, he walked off.

"Oi…..Shikamaru?" Tsunade's voice reached Shikamaru as he turned. "You found that girl, correct?"

Shikamaru nodded.

"Right….Until she can take care of herself, I leave you in charge of her."

Shikamaru's head whipped to where the Hokage stood. "What….?!"

"You were the one who found her."

"Right….." Shikamaru couldn't believe what he was hearing. Him, take care of this girl….?! How would he explain this to his parents…..?!

"I've already told your parents of your mission. The girl is fine now—she just needs to get her voice back sooner or later. Leave."

Shikamaru nodded. "Yes, Lady Tsunade." He walked into the girl's room. "Hey. You. Come with me, will you?"

The girl looked up. She had large, brown eyes. She nodded without a word.

TO BE CONTINUED.
