Don't hate! My grammar is pretty terrible and the plot-line is practically none existent. This was one of the first stories I ever wrote. I went back and tried to fix some things, but I'm sure I missed some.
How Could This Happen?
My name is Akemi. I came to konoha when I was ten. I live alone in an apartment. Because two years before, my parents were brutally murdered, right in front of my eyes. I have always been a shy girl, but my parents deaths didn't help any. Alright, enough chatting, I have to get back into the present. Right now I am stairing off into space while I am suppose to be training.
"Yo, Akemi! Wake up!" yelled a very upset Tsunade.
"Huh?" I said standing up and dusting myself off. I was sitting up against a tree.
"We're suppose to be practicing" Orochimaru said.
"I know, I'm getting up" I said.
"Hey guys Sarutobi-sensei is coming!" Jiraiya yelled. I stood up and looked at my sensei. He was a pretty cool guy, and he always understood me. Everybody loved him.
"Are you guys slacking off when I am not here?" he asked.
"No! Akemi is off day dreaming again" Tsunade screamed as she pointed to me.
"I'm sorry sarutobi-sensei" I said while bowing.
"I would like to speak with you alone after training, Akemi," Sarutobi said.
"Yes sensei" I said.
"Can we train already?" yelled an annoyed Jiraiya.
"Yes, let's get going," Sarutobi said. "We're going to spar."
"Yes!" I yelled.
"Jiraiya against Tsunade, and Orochimaru against Akemi."
"Your going down snake eyes!" I yelled, pointing at him. He just rolled his eyes. We both went into a fighting position.
"Are you going to attack first or will be forced to?" I asked him.
"Hnn" is all he said. So I made my attack. I did a number of hand signs and started a genjutsu, then started running at him with a kunai. He quickly dispelled the genjutsu, blocked the kunai, and sliced my shoulder.
Poof!
"A clone?" He asked looking around. Another me came out and started coming at him. He stood in a defensive position, but the real me was sneaking behind him, my chakra masked. He quickly killed the clone, but I already had a kunai to his throat.
"I win," I spoke. He just sighed.
"This is the third time this week you won," he said.
"Yup! And I'm getting better at it too Oro-kun," I said cheekily, putting the kunai down.
"Alright it's Tsunade's and Jiraiya's turn," Sarutobi said. Oroachimaru and I went over to a tree, so we would be far away from the fight. I sat on a thick branch, Orochimaru sitting beside me.
"Y'know Oro-kun, if you didn't go easy on me you would win," I said to him.
"I know, but if I did that you would just stop holding back and beet me anyways," he said as he sat down.
"Nah, I'd let you win a couple times," I said, smiling.
"Heh."
"So want to get something to eat after practice today?"
"Don't you have to stay later with Sarutobi-sensei?"
"Yeah, but after that."
"Sure, why not?"
"You don't have to if you don't want to" I said quickly.
"Nope, it's fine."
"Okay," I said with a goofy grin on my face. I looked over to the field to see that Jiraiya had just beat Tsunade.
"I win! I win! I win!" He yelled.
"Shut up, you idiot!" Tsunade yelled at him, hitting him on the head.
"Those two will never change," Orochimaru said, and I giggled softly.
"I wonder if they'll still act that way when they're fifty..." I said aloud.
"Probably." Orochimaru replied.
"So what do you want to be when your older?"
"I think... I want to be Hokage. I want to be the strongest ninja ever..."
"I'm sure you will. Before we know it you'll kick my butt in our sparring matches."
"So...how about you?" he asked.
"Um, I don't really know...I want to be a strong sensei. I want to be able to teach other's how to be strong ninja's."
"I'm sure you'll do that, if that's what you want to do. Everyone seems to like you."
"Everyone but Tsunade..." I sighed. Oroachimaru laughed beside me.
"She just doesn't like you because she's jealous. Your smart,strong, and beautiful..."
"Thank's Oro-kun-your the best!" I said, hugging him. His emotionless face turned just a tad bit red, but I was to busy hugging him to notice.
"Alright, everyone can leave...except Akemi," Sarutobi said.
"Hai!" Tsunade and Jiraiya said.
"I'll meat you there" I told Orochimaru. He nodded, then left.
"Is it the same dream?" Sarutobi asked me as soon as he was sure everyone had left.
"Yes, but it gets worse and worse everytime I have it."
"Tell me about it. What was it like this time?"
"It was horrible!"
"It's okay, just tell me about it."
"Well, you were on a roof, with this square like shield, made out of chakra...and there was this girl, with black hair...she was attacking you. Only this time she turned into Oro-kun...and...and killed you!" I said, tears swelling up in my brown eyes.
"Do you think that will happen?"
"I hope not."
"We'll do everything we can to make it not happen. Okay?" I quickly nodded. "Run along now. Don't keep Orochimaru waiting too long," he added with a wink. I blushed.
"Um, Sarutobi-sensei?"
"Yes?" he asked.
"Can I give you a nickname? Like...Tobi-sensei?"
"Sure," he replied with a smile. I hugged him and started to leave.
"Bye Tobi-sensei!" I yelled as you ran. At the gate waited Orochimaru. He was leaning against the wall with his eyes closed. So I went beside him and covered his eyes.
"Guess who?" I gigled
"Mimi-chan" he said.
"Aw... you always guess right!" I said, pouting.
"You're the only one who does it," he said, rolling his eyes.
"Oh yeah, Tsunade is always trying to impress you, Jiraiya is always annoying you..."
"Are we going to eat now?" he asked while starting to walk away.
"Oh yeah!" I said as I ran to catch up with him, grabbing his hand when I was close enough. He looked down at our interwoven hands.
"Oh... I'm so sorry..." I said while pulling away, afraid of his reaction.
"It's okay," he said and grabbed my hand. I smiled at him.
"To the famous ramen bar!" I said, skipping beside my closest friend.
Oro-kun is my best friend in the entire world!
