Chapter 1- Starting up a Storm
"Man, when am i ever gonna get to spend some time with my father. Stupid, baka Hokage."
The young Uzamaki named Bolt ranted to himself. He angrily trudged through the streets of The Village Dancing in the Leaves. He had just been chewed out by his father for another prank, like father like son. Unknown to him, a certain Uchiha had been doing her daily routine, stealthily following him throughout his day. That Uchiha was none other then Salada Uchiha, daughter of Sakura and Sasuke.
"Dang it, i left my money." The boy whined, he was planning on making a stop at Ichiraku's, but now that plan was gone out the window. Bolt sighed, hanging his head down. "I guess i'll go train myself." He sighed, grumpily kicking a few rocks around.
Salada's curiosity in the boy could perhaps be explained that they both had a similar father situation. Sasuke was currently still wandering the world, he visited every now and then, but that wasn't enough for his daughter. She wished to have their family together all the the time, to enjoy the presence of her father.
And that's why she thought she could relate to Bolt.
Bolt hazily made his way to the training field, with Salada close in tow. She stuck close to the trees, trying to make sure she was in a good enough position where she couldn't be seen, but could still watch. Bolt sighed, drawing a kunai from his pocket, his weapon of choice.
Taking another one out, he took a deep breath. "Haa!" He threw one full force at a tree. "Shaa!" He threw the second one directly at it. They clashed, the second one bouncing the other one into a downwards spiral.
Bolt quickly drew a third, tossing it at the first one. The second kunai was almost towards the tree when the first thrown intercepted it, sending it up in the sky. The third one bounced off a rock was started a path directly towards Salada.
"Eeek !" Salada squealed, swiftly jumping out of harms way. However her foot got caught in a twig that sent her tumbling directly towards Bolt, knocking him down to the ground, face first.
"Hey, what was that for!?" Bolt blindly exclaimed, not even knowing who or what had hit him.
"Maybe you should stop being so careless with weapons!"
Bolt instantly recognized the voice, the daughter of the woman named Sakura who his family often visited, and vice-versa. "What are you doing here, ?"
Salada stood up, dusting herself off like royalty, then she narrowed her eyes at the boy. "I could ask you the same question, Uzamaki Bolt." Her intent was not to be discovered, so she had to play like she wasn't following him.
"Me, well i was just training till all of a sudden a ate a plate of dirt. Not my favorite dish." Bolt looked at her with a sign of disbelieve, spitting out a clump of blood… and dirt.
Salada had resist the urge to giggle, instead trying to throw up a mean look. "I was just taking a walk through the forest when all of a sudden a certain kunai tried to impale me." She held up said tool.
"Right…" Bolt chuckled nervously, sheepishly rubbing the back of his head. "Well, no arguments there." He tried to avoid all discussion of the subject, and death at the hands of this girl.
Salada didn't speak another word, instead she stared at the boy, trying to get a good wrap of her feelings about him, whether they were good, bad, or neutral. However, she forgot that staring at someone for a while could potentially creep them out.
"Uh… Salada, hello… Salada… Salad?" Bolt eventually had to snap his fingers to get her back into the real world.
"Oh, oh… m-my bad." The young Uchiha-Haruno blushed heavily, something that she didn't usually do. It wa something about this boy that had her feeling like she was lightheaded when she saw him. She quickly dismissed it though, trying to think no more of it.
"Oh good, i'm usually the one that zones out, hehe." Bolt causally laughed, trying to clear the area of awkwardness.
Salada nodded, not replying. Her blush still not fading away, she turned her head to hide it. "Well, you do a good job of it in class."
Bolt chuckled, trying to hide his embarrassment with a laugh. "Well, i should be going, stuff to do." He started to walk forward, forgetting about his weapons.
As he passed her, Salada stopped him. "Don't think this little moment of chat changes anything Uzamaki brat, i'm still going to beat some sense into your little head, like i promised that day."
Bolt gulped, and nodded, hurriedly walking off.
Salada's ears picked up a few words along the lines of "Stupid teme." And "Crazy, weird baka." The Uchiha smirked, starting to walk the opposite way. She didn't know if she like the boy or not, but at the moment she didn't care.
Her lie had now convinced her. She now wanted to walk through the forest.
Bolt yawned, entering his house.
"Hello Bolt-kun, dinner is almost ready." His mother, Hinata happily greeted him.
"Cool, where's Hima-san?" Bolt responded, looking around for his little sister. He enjoyed spending time with her.
"Oh, she's staying the night with Sakura. After dinner your father told me to send you over there, so we could maybe…. have the night alone." Hinata spoke the last part really fast.
Bolt deadpanned. "Aww man, are you serious? The one time dad comes home, he wants the night alone!?" He exclaimed, not really seeing their point.
"Well Bolt, you gotta underst-"
"What you've gotta understand is that i want to see my father!" Bolt shouted at her, not at all realizing his tone.
"Bolt Nazariki Uzamaki, who the hell are you raising your voice with!" Hinata scowled, angrily looking down at him. "I am your mother, you will do as is said, understood?"
Bolt gulped. His mother rarely, if at all gained that type of tone. In a sulking mood, he nodded. "Y-Yes ma'am."
Hinata nodded, and clasped her hands together with a smile. "Great! Now c'mon, let's eat. You clothes are already packed."
After dinner, Hinata sent the boy out the the house of Sakura Haruno, the village's greatest nurse, or so they say. Bolt sighed, nimbly knocking on the door.
The door creaked open, then was opened all the way. Sakura smiled. "Oh hi Bolt, come on in sweetie."
He nodded, and walked in.
