Hello. I know the grammar, spelling, and stuff is absolutely terrible, but please forgive most of it. That's just how my main character, Keiko talks. Oh and please review. I'd like to know everyone's opinions.
Ugh. What was with all this sittin' around waitin'? I though the borin' lessons and annyin' classes were over with. I mean all of our year, even that dunderhead Naruto Uzamaki, had passed. We were through with our academy days, so what the heck were we doin' here? With a sigh I let the bubble I was blowin' in my gum pop with a loud crack that cut through the low murmmurin' of the crowd. Several people turned to glare at me through it didn't last long. They were soon way too caught up in the fact Naruto, a moron, and Sasuke Uchia, the most popular guy in our class, kissed, though based on their completely accidental.
My chair and I toppled to the floor as my laughter became uncontrollable. Oh, my sides hurt. It was just too funny. And the look on Sakura Haruno's, the smartest girl in our class, face was priceless. In fact the look on all their faces was priceless. I tried to catch my breath, but I was failin' epically. Of course I soon sobered up when Sakura started beatin' on Naruto. Oh honestly, she only did so because as a Sasuke fangirl she thought it was her duty to steal Sasuke's first kiss. I thought she, the rest of the Sasuke fan club, and their whole mission was incredibly stupid. Naïve annoyin' little girl. I rolled my eyes as our academy teacher, Iruka, walked in. He explained how we were now "real" ninja. That and we would be put into three man teams under a Jonin sensei. Oh please don't put me in the same team as Shikamaru. I mentally begged. Shikamaru was my older brother, he wasn't so bad, and in fact we got alon better than most brother and sister pairs. Except for when he got in my way. He seemed to think I was helpless and was super overprotective.
Iruka started listin' names, but there was a small uproar when he got to team seven. That team consisted of Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke. That was real smart, not! Man were they stupid or somethin'? putting Sakura, Naruto, and Sasuke together was a recipe for disaster. The listin' continued. Shikamaru wound up in team ten with his best friend Choji Akimichi and another Sasuke fangirl Ino Yamanaka. I let out a breath of relief. Thank the gods. I was so glad I wasn't on the same team as them and I almost felt sorry for Shikamaru and Choji. They had to put up with Ino. A couple of teams later and my team, team fourteen was announced.
"Keiko Nara, Mizu Aburame, and Eiri." Iruka finished. He explained there would be a break and we would then meet our senseis. I sighed and draped myself over my desk as everyone else filed out of the room.
"Hey are you Keiko Nara or Mizu Aburame by any chance?" A cheerful voice above me asked. With a sigh I sat up.
"I might be related to a Nara. What's it to ya'?" I growled. The boy who came up to me had light brown hair and big dark blue eyes. He wore a white top with gold clasps, black pants, black sandals, and white fingerless gloves.
"I'm Eiri." The boy told me brightly. Well it made sense. Eiri was supposedly Tenten's, someone who had graduated a year earlier, little brother. He certainly looked the part.
"That's nice." I muttered. Eiri sighed.
"You're just like that other Nara aren't you? Completely useless." He grumbled. I stood so fast my chair toppled to the floor for the second time in one hour.
"I really don't give a crap what you say about me, but if I ever hear you insultin' my brother again I will dismember you." I growled grabbin' the front of the guy's shirt.
There was a sigh from behind me. "I don't think he was intentionally insulting your brother. Let him go." A girl voice told me.
"So? I'm just warnin' 'im. He does it again and I'll kill 'im." I snapped lettin' go of the boy's shirt and shovin' him forward. The girl sighed again as I turned to face her. She had short brown hair so dark it was almost black and the lightest blue eyes I had ever seen. She wore a long black sleeve shirt that opened at the bottom to show off her belly button, black pants, and black sandals. "Whoa honey. Ever hear of a little thing called color?" I asked her.
"Yes I have, but despite your and Naruto's belief we are ninja, our job is not to be colorful." She told me without any real emotion. I got what she was sayin' about Naruto, I mean come on. The boy wears bright orange for the sake of all, but what was wrong with my sense of color.
"I don't believe our job is to be colorful, I just like bright and unusual colors." I replied coolly.
"I see is that why you couple red with lime green?" She questioned again emotionlessly.
"Yes." I growled. This girl was beginning to tick me off.
"Um… Maybe we should go have our lunch break now." Eiri suggested.
"Whatever. I'm going to go find my brother." I announced. I really didn't need to get in trouble for haulin' off and punchin' the girl.
"No need. I'm right here." Sikamaru said from the doorway. Choji was standin' just slightly behind him.
"Shikamaru!" I squealed jumpin' over my desk and pushin' Eiri aside so I could tackle my big brother in a big hug.
Shikamaru rolled his eyes. "Sure act like you didn't just see me this morning." He muttered. I stood and pulled Shikamaru to his feet before handin' him two hairties.
"Braid." I ordered turning my back to him. He chuckled.
"You're the one who ran out of the house before I got the chance." He informed me seperatin' my hair into two parts and throwin' one part over my shoulder.
"Nu-uh. You were just too lazy." I replied. All five of us stood in silence as Shikamaru braided my hair. When he finished I turned back to him. "So what are you doin' here?" I inquired.
"We've come to invite you to lunch." He announced. I hopin' he said we h meant just him and Choji and not Ino. I grinned.
"Alright I'm up for that." I answered. Shikamaru led Choji and I to his favorite spot and laid down. I giggled. I should have known he didn't mean lunch when he said lunch, he meant cloud watchin'.
"I thought you said lunch Shikamaru." Choji said though it was a borderline whine. Shikamaru lazily lifted his hand and pointed to a large picnic basket beneath a tree. I grinned and flopped down my head restin' on Shikamaru's stomach.
"Mom packed that didn't she?" I asked closin' my eyes.
"No she made me do it." He muttered. His voice was heavy with sleep. He would be out soon.
