Name: Kaia Hikaru

Age: 16

Looks: She is short at five feet, and has long pale blonde hair she usually keeps in a bun or in curls. Her eyes are bright golden, and her skin is rather pale. She is slightly chubby with a thick frame.

Personality: She's pretty relaxed and funny. She enjoys having fun and is an avid gamer. She fits in more with the boys than the girls, but she does have a girly side that she doesn't show anyone. She's very loyal and makes friends fast, and is quick to defend those friends and family to no extent.

History: She grew up in a foster family from three years old. When she was 15, they told her she was adopted and she accepted it with grace. On her 16th birthday, she was sent to live with another family who were willing to keep her for her last years in the system, in a town about three days from her original family.

This is where our story begins...

I looked up as the announcer over the intercom told everyone to shut down eletronics and prepare for landing. I let out a soft sigh and put my mp3 player in my pocket, removing the head phones. There was slight bouncing and I gripped the arm rests, fear striking my heart.

"It's okay, just the tires on the runway," the elderly lady next to me promised.

"Thanks," I whispered.

The lady's words calmed me slightly but I was against the whole flight in the first place!

'Could have just taken my freaking car' I thought to myself.

Everyone began rising and bustling, and soon I was swept away in the sea of people, very unsure of where exactly I was supposed to be going.

"Kaia! Kaia!" a voice called.

I turned and smiled slightly as I saw a woman holding a sign with my name on it. She was a bright redhead with rosy cheeks and a big smile. I hurried over and the lady quickly hugged me.

"It's so nice to see you, how was your flight?" she asked.

"Great Mrs. Uzumaki, thank you very much," I replied, bowing slightly.

"Oh come come now, no need for such stuck-up behavior! Let's get going, my son is very eager to meet you," she chided, pulling me hard.

I stumbled slightly but followed her to a simple white car. We tossed my bags in the back seat and before I knew it, we were on the highway in foreign-to-me lands.

"So Kaia, you're in your sophomore year right?" she asked.

"Yes Mrs. Uzumaki, I'm actually kind of nervous," I replied, staring out of the window.

"Oh there's nothing to be nervous about dear, my son is in your grade too, I'm sure he will show you around and help you with everything, oh, and call me Kushina," she replied.

I was kind of surprised but as I saw her bright smile, I had to smile back. What a nice woman...

"Well, we're here! Let's get your bags and come on in!" Kushina stated cheerfully.

I grabbed most of my bags and followed her into the large house. It was beautiful outside, but the inside was magnificent.

"This is gorgeous," I murmured.

"Thank you, my husband, rest his soul, promised Naruto and I would live in luxary, even when he was passed," she said, smiling sadly.

"Oh, I'm sorry," I muttered.

I felt like crap for bringing that up.

"No dear, it's okay. NARUTO!"

I winced and looked at the stairs. A blonde kid around my age came running down.

"Sup mom? Oh, new girl," he said.

"Now Naruto, you know to be more polite than that, this is Kaia, she's going to be staying with us for a few years," Kushina said, as if it was an everyday occurance.

"Sure, yeah, hey there Kaia, I'm Naruto, want help?" he offered.

I noticed he has his moms eyes and bright personality, and was very loud.

"Sure Naruto, thank you," I replied.

He led me up the stairs and showed me to a large room. It had a huge blue canopy bed, a large white dresser, and a desk with a spot for a computer.

"This is amazing!" I cried.

I quickly began unpacking my things and set up my XBox 360, PS2, and my laptop on the desk.

"So, you're a gamer huh?" he asked.

I nodded and looked up as he grinned.

"Me too! What games do you like?"

"Erm, well, anything RPG or FPS, but I'm partial to fighting games too," I explained, "Some of my favorites are the Elder Scrolls series and Fallout."

"Dude, have you played Skryim yet? It's the bomb!" he cried.

My eyes widened.

"No way, do you have it?"

"Hell yeah! Wanna play?" he offered.

"Does a penguin slide on it's belly?"

He paused and gave me a funny look, causing me to blush in embarrassment.

"Oh shut up, let's just go game!" I snorted, smacking his arm.
