"Hey, Naomi," Kaoru called, "let's go stalk Ryuu-sensei! Me, Neji, and Sora will wait for you 5pm at Neji's house. You'd better come!" He waved and ran off.

"Wai-" She called after him, but he already ran off. That Kaoru, he's always mischievous, although Naomi did come up with a lot of ideas too. She sighed and started to walk home.

Koaru, Neji, and Sora were Naomi's best friends. Koaru and Sora were with her in Team 4, taught by Ryuu-sensei. Koaru and Neji were Byakugan users, in the main family. Naomi was a Sharingan user.

This year she graduated from Team 4. She's now a chunin, but she still liked to do things like stalk random teachers with her friends.

She sat on the porch and touches her eye. "The Mangekyo Sharingan," she pondered to herself, "I wonder if there's a way to get the eternal Mangekyo Sharingan without killing anyone?" Naomi heard of the Mangekyo Sharingan a few times before. She has no one to ask about it, though, because an Akatsuki member, Itachi, slaughtered her whole clan.

Naomi looked at her watch. "4:59… Late probably, but who cares," she rolled her eyes and left.

"Yo, Naomi," Sora and Koaru pouted together, "You're late! We waited 30 minutes in this sun!"

"Psh, then why don't you wait with Neji in the SHADE?" she glanced at Neji, sitting comfortably under a tree while Sora and Koaru were standing in the sun.

Neji got up and walked over. "Why are you guys so obsessed with the senseis? God, Koaru, you even turned into tissue paper to see where Ryuu-sensei goes in his free time!"

Everyone remembered the time when Ryuu-sensei, probably purposefully, blew his nose on the suspicious purple tissue paper which mysteriously appeared in his pocket.

"Hey, you have to admit I did a good job turning into tissue paper! Let's see you do that," he shot back at him.

Naomi stepped in. "C'mon guys, stop fighting," she crossed her arms, "so what are we going to do today?"

Sora grinned. "We're going to see Konoha's secret cave. Only Ryuu-sensei and a couple other elite ninja know the entrance code. It has top secret information, moves, and stuff!"

"But we're gonna be in big doo doo when we get caught!" Neji complained.

"Yeah," Naomi agreed, "they're going to catch us and we'll all be looked down upon! Neji and I are chunin now, we're responsible ninja."

Kaoru rolled his eyes, "yeah right. Chunins, chunins. If you're really that good, don't talk like we're going to be caught. If you're really a chunin, show some guts and follow him! It's valuable information gathering."

Naomi gave in. "Well, it looks like we can't argue with you… What do you say, Neji?"

"…," Neji crossed his arms.

Sora grinned, "Well, it looks like Neji's in! Come on, let's get started! Ryuu-sensei is going to check on the secret cave in 10 minutes, we have to arrive first!"
