The Return of the Ninja
By PinkNinjaz.:: Kaori's Story::.
Two annoyed blue eyes flickered awake as they where startled open by a blast of sunlight.
"Algh…mom…close the blinds!" The teenager screamed, burying her head underneath the mounds of covers as she waited for what she new was coming.
All at once, her fear of mornings was embraced, as her mother swiped the blankets back off of her and started into the riveting chorus of "Ding Dong the Witch Is Dead"
Making sure to emphasize the line
"Wake up - sleepy head, rub your eyes, get out of bed."
A mess of blonde hair settled back down to its normal position as she tumbled out of bed against her wishes.
"Common Kaori, mornings aren't that bad!" Her mother said enthusiastically.
If it were anyone but her mother, Kaori would've thrown them a death glare and moved on, but this was her mother-so she silently obeyed.
Her mother gave her a small smile and asked her to come to the dinner table when she was dressed, and then left her to be alone.
Kaori immediately approached her cd player, as she did each morning, but this time, something was wrong. Her CD's were packed away, as everything else in her room.
She let a small shriek out and felt the urge to let out a long deafening scream. She also noticed that it was 7:00 AM. Exactly 2 hours before she was normally woken up.
"Something's messed up here…" she said quiet plainly as she opened the nearest box and pulled out a cd.
Her cd player blared Just a Girl by Click 5, as she stared at a near-by poster of her favorite anime: Naruto. Her parents and friends thought she was way too obsessed with the show, but she paid no attention to them. Her friends and anime were all that kept her sane these days.
Kaori stared at herself in the mirror, as she adjusted her hair into a pony tail, finishing it off with a ribbon. She dressed in blue jeans, like any 12 year old would, and a blue V-Neck tank top. Her name truly fit her (Kaori means 'beautiful girl' in Japanese.)
Now awake, Kaori slide (via railing) down into her kitchen, where she found both of her parents. Her dad was pacing, her mother at the table. This couldn't be good.
"Who died?" Kaori immediately asked. The last time this had happened she'd found out her pet goldfish Snuffles had been flushed down the toilet and arrived in an all-expenses–paid vacation to the big blue fishbowl in the sky.
"No one honey." Her mother reassured her.
"Ok then...well are we moving? Because my stuff's if pack and-"
Her father cut her off. "Kaori…how much did grandpa teach you about our past?"
"Um...well he showed me the family tree." She responded dully remembering her grandfather's determination to teach her even more history than she was already learning in her 7th grade Social Studies class.
"Hm..." Her father mumbled, as if he was looking for the words to continue.
He silently threw her an envelope as he continued his pace.
Kaori looked at her mother, who nodded to show she wanted Kaori to open the letter.
Nervously she ripped open the letter, to find a very familiar picture.
"OH! That's Sasuke-kun!!!!" Kaori squealed.
"Hm...How much do you know about this 'Sasuke' figure?"
"He's just the world's greatest evil emo ninja." Kaori proclaimed.
"He's also a character in Naruto."
"He's also..." Her father added a dramatic pause.
"Your great-great-great grandfather."
