It was quiet afternoon for the captain of Team Ro. Kakashi was dozing off in a tree branch with his current read on his face. The jounin was usually nearby the hokage office when he was still on call for any mission. He was completely knocked out on that branch as few villagers noticed when strolling by. They were respectful to be quiet except one shinobi….and his name was Gai Might.
Gai doesn't know when to be quiet to do his natural hyper personality. So being the bowl cut ignorance moron he is, Gai yells the copy ninja's name, waking him up. Kakashi groans quietly as his name is being called. He tries his best to act asleep still when Gai comes closer.
"HEY YA KAKASHI!" Young teen yells once more. Kakashi certainly doesn't want his nap to be interrupted but clearly Gai doesn't take the hint when he jumps on to the branch. Kakashi gives up and moves his book of his face. He shoots Gai an annoyed look and heavy groan.
"Hey…. Gai." Kakashi says in a tired voice barely keeping his eyes open.
"Oi, What are you doing in this tree."
Kakashi grumbles before answering, "Well. I was trying to enjoy my afternoon before you came along."
"So you weren't doing anything then! That's great! We can battle to ourheart'scontent,whatchasay about that?!" Gai said excitedly as he pulled on his rival's arm. Battling was too much energy for Kakashi and a waste of time.
"No."
"Come on! You're wasting your youth if you just hang out in this tree! It's like you have nothing better to do!"
He was right about having nothing better to do which put gray haired teen in endanger of Gai roping him into another ridiculous escapade of his. He had to think of an excuse quickly before bowl cut idiot got him off the tree. Then he saw the perfect thing to get rid of him.
"Gai. Look over there. The old lady wants your help." Kakashi pointed to old lady struggling to carry a huge bag on his back. Gai got excited and jumped down happily to assist her and Kakashi took the perfect opportunity to slip away.
Unfortunately Kakashi was summoned to the Hokage's office when he saw an eagle circling above him. He sighs in disappointment that his afternoon was interrupted once more. At least Gai wasn't going to come back anytime soon due to the old lady. He was now stuck with carrying her all of the way to the top of a mountain where her house stood.
Kakashi made his way to the hokage's office and Hirūzen was waiting for him. The jounin knocked on the wooden door and heard a voice. "Come in."
He opened the door and peeked his head in the opening.
"You called Lord Third?"
"I did. Don't linger. Please come in and shut the door in behind you."
Kakashi did what he was told. Hirūzen pulled out a yellow envelope and gestured him to take it. Kakashi took it and looked at the cover. 'Top secret' was stamped on the front. He raised his eyebrow in curiosity as he opened it.
"So what exactly is this?"
"It is a file on a new addition to your team. She is being transferred over from Danzō's supervision to mine."
"She?" Kakashi questioned as he took out the papers. He rarely seen female being transferred from the root division. Nonetheless, without a catch from the Danzō. What did he do this one?
"Yes. It's a female shinobi. I hope there is nothing wrong her being in your team." The third said not looking up the current scroll he was currently writing in.
"There isn't." He looked at documents and saw her name. He was surprise she was even in the anbu considering she wasn't originally from this village.
"The transfer is that outsider from Iwagakure….?"
"She is. I do hope you do not call her an outsider when she begins tomorrow."
"The outsider is starting tomorrow." Kakashi said with a little annoyance in his tone. The third looks up at him with irritated look in his eyes. "Kakashi. Please be aware of the current events that are taking place. She will not tolerate you calling her outsider after all of the work she has done for village. She was a high rank in the Root. Impressive considering she was there for only two years.
"Okay. If she was already a high rank, why is she being transfer then?"
"It was her personal request."
Kakashi looks at the photo of her attached to her basic information. Her hair is light blue and she has a bang covering her left eye while the right eye is blue. He reads her name at the top of the page, 'Hoshiko Kei Sato.' Kakashi continues to briefly scan over the front page and starts to be become more curious of her.
"Lord Third…. It says she has over 50 confirmed kills on this. Is this a typo?'
"It is not Kakashi. Hoshiko is rather committed to her work in the village. Due to the Root division's strict secrecy, I do not know what she is like in person. "
Kakashi looked at him weirdly, "I don't think I heard that right. Did you just say you do not know what Hoshiko is like in person?"
"Hoshiko has not once came here since I had been inaugurated into office."
Kakashi scratches his head unsure about his new member.
"But anyways Kakashi, I am not the type ruined your fun of reading. You're dismissed."
The jounin ninja leaves the office as he continues reading her file on his way to the ANBU . He became curious of Hoshiko.
Meanwhile, the girl in question. Hoshiko sneezes abruptly when she is walking down the streets of Konoha holding her bags for dinner. "Someone is talking about me or its this dusty road kicking up my allergies." She thinks to herself as she puts her hand in her pocket. It was her turn to do the shopping for her roommates.
The blue haired kunoichi's eyes drifts to the villagers shooting her dirty looks. Hoshikocouldn'tcare less what this village thinks of her but then again the villagers could possibly be giving her the dirty looks for different reasons.
A can gets thrown at her but she catches instantly with her free hand. Hoshi can put up with everything that goes on through village but things get thrown at her. It has been taken too far. Hoshi stops and turns around to the direction where the can was thrown. She sees an adult shopkeeper.
"What the hell are you doing here you outsider! You do not belong here!" He yelled at her. Hoshi just scratched her head with an annoyed face.
"What are you yapping about this time moron?" A voice said the shopkeeper. Hoshiko looked back to the voice and it was her friend Aria Uchiha. The blue haired girl just kept walking as her friend started a fight with the shopkeeper.
"Look ya damn asshole, quit throwing trash at my friend. She did not do anything to you." Aria said irritated.
"How can you stick up for that girl!? She is just going to come and destroy this village!"
"Hoshiko would not even do such a thing. Despite her not being here, does not make her a threatening any way!"
"It does. She is just going to rob us blind then! She just attracted more outsiders like her cause all of the village to become in danger. She deserves to be sent back her village instead of staying here!"
"Shut up already got dammit." Aria yelled at the shopkeeper. He raised his hand to the Uchiha. Hoshiko didn't take to kindly the shopkeeper doing such a thing. She appeared next to him grabbing his wrist.
"You shouldn't try to hit her." Hoshi said in calm tone. The adult shopkeeper struggled, "Unhandme you filthy outsider."
"For you information, I am not filthy. I always take two showers everyday. One in the morning and one at night. The term outsider is rude and I don't like it one bit. So reframe from ever calling me it and don't hit my friend or your really going to have a bad time old man. "
"O-okay." The shopkeeper was terrified of the way Hoshiko was getting him unsettling smile.
Hoshiko let go of his wrist and grabbed Aria. Hoshi did not have time for Aria to mess around with her own low reputation. It was hard enough for her to deal these villagers. Despite Aria being her roommate, she had deal with her big mouth and hothead nature. It was bothersome.
"I do not need you jumping head first into everything negative this village says about me. It is only going to make mattersworse." Hoshi said.
"But you do not need that type of disrespect from anyone."
"Icouldn'tcare less about what these people have to say about me. It is matter of time before they find something else to complain about."
"But-"
"No buts."
Hoshi said dragging Aria off to their apartment. She was not happy with the Uchiha that moment. They entered their place as Aria tried to argued with her. Hoshi kept insisting for her to stop but she did not.
"Just stop already Aria-san. Make yourself useful and put these away." Hoshiko gave her the brown bag full of food. Aria did what she said and put the food away. Hoshi went into the hallway and knocked on her other roommate's door. "Sayori. Come out and help Aria."
The hyūga came out with her hair in a disarray. "Why do I have to help her?"
"Because you were your room since I left this morning. I don't like it when you're being lazy. Did you even go to your shift today?"
AsSayori shook her head no, Hoshi had flicked her forehead.
"Ow! Sorry Hoshi-chan. I won't do it again." Sayori whined as she rubbed her forehead.
"You better not! You can't afford to miss a day just because you're feeling lazy. " Hoshi crossed her arms disappointed in her friend.
"Yeah. Yeah. Just do not do that again moron!" Sayori said before going into the kitchen to help Aria. Hoshiko sighed as she went into her room.
The kunoichi took off her gear and put it into her closet. Hoshiko kicked off her sandals and put those away. Her room was neat and organized. It was rare anyone saw her room a mess and dysfunctional. Then again compare to Sayori's room and Aria's room, she was top tier of the three.
Hoshiko noticed the markings on her neck start to glow as she passes by the mirror. She looks around for her scroll but isn't able to find it after ten minutes of searching. Then the kunoichi remembers when it went.
Sayori heard a knock on the front door and she went to answer it. It was her older brother, Ryuu.
"Oi! Sayori, you get ready. Mom wants you down at thebookshopright now."
"Can it wait?"
"No, she says you missed too many shifts and she is going to fire you if you do not get down there."
"Crap! That is bad. Alright. Alright. I am getting ready now! J-Just wait here." Sayori ran back to her room as Ryuu waited outside. Hoshiko came back out her room with a change of normal clothing. She pinned up her long blue hair into a ponytail.
"Hoshi-san!" Aria called her the minute she saw her walk pass the living room. Hoshi stuck her head out to see what she wanted.
"What is it?"
"What's that thing glowing on your neck?"
"Nothing to be concerned about. Go back to what you were doing." Hoshi dismissed her friend concern as she continued to go into Aria's room for her scroll.
"Wait! Do not go in there." The Uchiha follows her into the room. Hoshi digs under her bed for it and pulls out her scroll.
"What did I tell you about my scrolls Aria? Do not leave them in your room. Just put it in my room. " Hoshiko said standing up.
Aria smiles nervously at Hoshi as she watches the blue head girl opens the scroll. The scroll lights up and big cloud of smoke fills the room. Both the girls cough as the room clear up.
"What was that?" Hoshiko said disturbed while she patted the dust off her pants.
"I was going to say, my scroll for a summoning but it has nothing it in... Your scroll is here. " Aria explained as she open her drawer and pulled out her scroll. She laughed nervously as a drop of sweat rolled down her cheek.
Hoshiko gave her an annoyed look as she took a hold of her scroll, "Thanks alot but I like I was going to say-"
"I don't really want to hear it." Aria interrupted her as she started walking out the room.
"Aria. You know this scroll is important to me so knock off the childish antics." Hoshiko followed the Uchiha out the room, trying to lecture her about the scroll but Sayori's voice interrupted the two. The Hyūga slid down the hallway, knocking down Hoshi and Aria like they were bowling pins. Ryuu heard the loud crash and ran in, just to see the three kunoichi piled on one another.
"Oh jeez. Are you okay?"
The three girls groaned in unison in pain.
"I swear... You two are going to be the death of me and you won't be even trying. " Hoshi said getting up.
"I am pretty sure that would be the Hyūga would kill us. " Aria added while she sat up.
"Well... Either of you guys are not wrong. " Sayori agreed while laughing.
"But anyways we have to head down to my mom's bookshop." Ryuu said pulling his sister up off the ground. The two girls waved them bye.
"I am going to be in my room for the rest of today. So yell if you need me. " Hoshi said walking to her room with her scroll. Aria nodded before going back into the kitchen.
Hoshiko sat on her bed and open the scroll. She bit her finger and drew blood out onto the scroll. She place her hand on to her paper. The ink kanjis flow up her arm under her clothing and onto the back of her neck. The kanjis surround her glowing mark and stops it from glowing. Hoshi sighs in relief as she feels the kanjis embedded themself into her skin. The kunoichi takes her hair tie out, letting her long blue hair down. She looks over at the clock on the wall. It reads 4:59 pm.
"I forgot my uniform... " Hoshi groans as she rolls of her bed, knowing she has walk all the way across Kohana to the ANBU division just to grab her uniform. She should have gotten when she was on that side of the village.
"Aria!" She yells as she grabbed her two toned jacket.
"What!?" The Uchiha yells back as she chops the raw meat. Hoshiko runs out her room and in the kitchen, " I am leaving. "
"Why? You forget something?"
"Yeah. It's on the other side of the village."
"What's on the other side of the village?"
" My uniform. Also Aria. "
"What?"
"I am grabbing more meat. You butchered our dinner completely." She said walking off towards the front door as Aria realized she chopped the meat too small and thin. She put her head down in shame.
"Good idea Hoshiko. You go do that."
Hoshi put her shoes on and went out the door reminding herself hit the market on the way back.
