Naruto yawned and stood up, his bright orange shirt flashing like a beacon. His twin sister rolled her eyes at his choice of clothing, and gave a meaningful glance towards her own jeans and T-shirt. Even with the casual clothes, she still managed to look good. Tossing a waist-length lock of hair behind her shoulder she headed out the door, Naruto close behind.

"It's a good thing Ita-Chan, Sasu-Chan, and Iru-Chan go to Rhody High, otherwise we're going to be completely lost." Akachi said as they walked down the stairs and outside. The cold city air, woke Naruto up a little more, and he smiled at his twin.

"Yeah. It's gonna be fun to see the teme again. We haven't seen him in, what, six years?" "About." Linking hands, they sprinted towards the towering school in the distance. They got through the doors with a large group of other students. The clock gave them five minutes until the warning bell rang.

"Better hurry. I want to find Sasu-Chan before the bell rings." Akachi headed towards a hallway that led to the art wing of the school, heading for where Itachi had told them his classroom was.

Akachi opened the door to reveal the two brothers talking in low voices, a huge group of fan girls giggling in the corner as they watched them. Naruto made an exasperated sound in his throat and rolled his eyes at their antics. "They do this everywhere he goes, I bet." He murmured to the smoke-cloud where his twin had stood moments before.

"Sasu-Chan, Ita-Chan!" She yelled, throwing herself at the two. Sasuke's normally expressionless face split in a wide smile, and he hugged the energetic bundle of hyper activeness that crashed into him.

"Aka-Chan! I was wondering when you would come!" He exclaimed happily. Itachi chuckled and waited for his turn. Naruto fist pounded both males after his sister finished her overly enthusiastic greeting. He secretly watched as the brothers' fan group muttered angrily over the too familiar new girl, even daring to call them Chan after shortening their names!

He laughed a little to himself, seeing Sasuke do the same. The ebony -haired and -eyed boy was aware of the reaction in the classroom. "Aka-Chan, Naru-Kun, what's your schedule? I wonder if we have any classes together." As the twins took out their schedules for their friend to see, a blonde-haired girl approached them.

"Sasuke-Kun, good morning." The girl smiled, and her sky blue eyes shimmered. Her hair was paler than Akachi's and she tossed it like it was an art.

"Ah…Ino-San, hello." He fidgeted, then sighed as he was obligated to introduce everyone. "Why doesn't everyone come meet me childhood friends, Akachi and Naruto Uzamaki."

The girls giggled and converged on them. Sasuke introduced a pink-haired girl as Sakura, a girl with black hair in buns as Tenten, and a shy girl with short black hair as Hinata. Akachi smiled and edged away from the overwhelming surge of girls, not hearing the names of the others that were called. Sneaking her schedule back from Sasuke's limp hands, she turned towards the door.

She saw someone much more interesting there. An emerald-eyed redhead with a slightly detached expression was hovering outside the doorway, unsure if he was allowed in. Flashing him a flirtatious smile as she passed, Akachi strode through the door bravely. A map from Itachi told her where her classes were. Naruto could find his own way.
