"Looks like I was right; the gate is guarded," Kiyoshi thought to himself silently. Down below from a tall green leafed tree he was in, Kiyoshi saw two ninjas sitting on a stand near the gate. They were watching the gate intently but Kiyoshi was able to pick up two other emotions; anxiety and restlessness. He saw them talk and quickly began to listen to see just what was going on. "Hey do you think that everyone's alright? They have been gone for a while now," one of the men told his friend right next to him.
Kiyoshi's eyes looked closer at these two with his critical-bearing eyes and slowly he smiled to himself in realization. "These two are the teachers from the chunin exams in the old Naruto. Looks like watching anime wasn't a complete waste of time after all." He continued to listen closely to the conversation, just in case there was information he could use, when he suddenly saw something running toward the gate; he took a few steps till he was toward the trunk of the tree, staring a little nervously at the distance. If there was one thing Kiyoshi wanted more than anything at this point was a kunai, or a ninja star; he'd even settle for a huge toad or snail, which he thought were pointless summoning jutsus in the first place. But NO! He was stuck in a tree with nothing but the katana from his grandpa and his wits. And in a place like Konoha, that wasn't exactly enough to help him. "Please don't be sound ninjas, the Akatsuki, or Oorchimaru. Or Tsunade; she'll probably either see me as a enemy or ask me question that I'll have to give crazy answers for," Kiyoshi mumbled under his breath as he crossed his fingers with one hand and brushed the handle of his katana with the other, just in case. He watched the incoming dust storm come toward the gate along with the two ninjas and then as the dust settled, Kiyoshi heard those famous words. "GAI SENSAI, YOU'RE THE GREATEST! YOU CAME IN FIRST JUST LIKE LAST TIME! I PROMISE I'LL RUN 500 LAPS AROUND KONOHA IN YOUR HONOR!" Kiyoshi did an anime fall when he realized who had just appeared in front of Konoha's gate. "I can't believe I got nervous over these two morons. Gai and Lee, of all people!" Kiyoshi stopped wallowing in self humiliation and saw quickly that the ninjas were somewhat distracted by the two; this was his only chance to get inside without being noticed. But he never really leapt over a gate before; trees, sure, but not a gate and by the looks of it, if he missed, he'd get caught easily. But Kiyoshi narrowed his eyes and got ready to spring off the branch with all the might he had; if there was one he learned from living with his grandpa and two best friends was "What's life without taking your chances." Kiyoshi kept a steady gaze on the gate, only looking down to see how long the branch was. Luckily, it was decently long enough for him to run across; but that's actually where all the luck ended. The branch was somewhat flimsy and it looked like one false move would cause it to break under his weight. Kiyoshi sighed to himself in exasperation; what a way to start his first day. "No problem though; All I have to do is run fast enough and get a good jump by the time I reach the end of the branch. Hopefully it's as easy as it sounds," Kiyoshi thought to himself as he crouched a little and, without any second thoughts, he ran nimbly across the branch, brushing his fingers against an emblem that was on a thin yet firmly linked together, chain necklace for luck. "If I don't make it, all I have to say is: What a drag," Kiyoshi thought while a smirk played across his face as he finally sprang off the tip of the branch. How he managed he still wasn't sure; but the next thing Kiyoshi knew he was gliding over the gate and landed safely on one the roofs of Konoha. But he also heard some people shouting from the gate and knew instantly that he was caught. "Dammit, I can't believe I let myself get caught! Now I have to hid somewhere in the village." Kiyoshi leapt down from the roof, into the alley, where he hid in the shadows as he saw some ninjas, including the two guards at the gate, ran by in a hurry. Kiyoshi stared in disbelief at the small group of ninjas that had ran by; there was no way that they could've already gathered ninjas to start a search. "That means, I'm not the only one who snuck inside Konoha; so they didn't really see me, they saw someone else going through the gates. Then again, they could've probably saw me too; I'll have to be careful," Kiyoshi thought silently. Then a thought came across his mind; there were awfully a lot of ninjas that had ran past him. What could be so huge that they needed such a large number of ninjas to capture the person? Kiyoshi snapped out of his thoughts and quickly left the moment that the group was gone; he might as well get going before the next group came, tucking his emblem in his shirt as he walked toward a ramen shop. But once again, he didn't notice the large creature in the shadows, as it looked at him a little grimly; it watched two feathers, one black and one white, float to the ground and disappear like it was made of mist. It slightly smiled a little at the sight of these feathers in pleasure. "You really don't take your chances, do you," The creature thought to itself as it looked gently at the boy now. "You… remind me of someone from long ago… a man who had to earn his leadership and the respect from his people the hard way, just as someone else is trying to do now." A gentle smile came across its hidden face as it watched him run toward a ramen shop. "Maybe you and that boy are destined to meet each other; I get the feeling that you two will help each other well." Suddenly the creature stared to see six large men going into the shop as well; and they were carrying large knives with them. The creature's fur rose the moment it saw them taking a step in the shop and growled lowly. "But it appears that someone's trying to test my tolerance." A large black striped, white paw came through from the shadows and the moment it touched the ground, sword-like, pitch black claws appeared. Soon it took another silent step forward toward the ramen shop…
Kiyoshi sat hidden in one of the corner seats, listening to everyone talk about random day-to-day things with friends. Some people looked curiously at the worn out teen in the shop, but didn't make much of an effort to approach him; he looked like he didn't want to be disturbed by anyone. Kiyoshi continued to watch the people go to and fro of the ramen shop and before long, he slightly began to smile; half of him liked the light-heartedness and harmony of the leaf village. But then again, he hated the fact that people would fear anyone born in the village for being a different or make fun of those who they considered failures, like Rock Lee, Naruto, and Choji. "Um excuse me; do you want anything to eat?
Kiyoshi snapped out of his thoughts and turned to a brown haired lady, probably 20, in a white apron looking at him with a sweet natured smile as she held a notepad in her hand. A handkerchief covered some of her hair. "I don't have any money. You could say… I had to come here; I didn't have any other options."
The lady looked at him in surprise. "Doesn't your family give you money to get food?"
Kiyoshi turned his face away from her. "I don't have a family anymore." Kiyoshi stood up and turned back to the lady again. "I'm sorry if I disturbed you. I'll leave right away." Kiyoshi took a step forward only to be seated down by the woman again.
"No, that's okay." She sniffled a little and wiped some tears that were threatening to fall. "In fact, since you're new here why don't you let us treat you with no charge?"
Kiyoshi looked at her with surprise. "I can't do that! I should pay just like everyone else! I really don't want to trouble you!"
The lady smiled widely when she heard this. "Nope, I'm not taking 'no' as an answer. So you might as well take the offer. Besides, your stomach is telling me something else." The lady giggled a little when she heard Kiyoshi's stomach growl lowly. When Kiyoshi didn't object again, she went to a man and said some stuff quietly. At first the man looked surprised and questioningly at the young lady but his expression softened sympathetically as the lady continued. Then he had asked her a question and she pointed at Kiyoshi's seat. Kiyoshi shyly waved at the man and the older man smiled a little, going into a kitchen after that. "Wow…I'm not really used to being worried over by complete strangers. But they look like good people; my grandpa did tell me that I had that special ability to see people for who they are." Not long after the man came with the lady and placed a bowl of pork ramen in front of him and handed some chopsticks to Kiyoshi. He looked at the man and lady to the bowl of ramen, and he just let his stomach react for him; what, he was hungry people! He slowly slurped up the noodles and his eyes somewhat lit up like a little kid's as he continued to eat the noodles, a little more fast but still meekly. Kiyoshi finished it all off by sipping the rest up and couldn't help but smile a little at the two. "This is really good; my compliments to the chef," Kiyoshi said.
The man smiled proudly when he heard Kiyoshi say this. "Well, then thank you! No one around here besides Naruto tells me how good my ramen is! You really are new around here." When Kiyoshi's stomach growled again and made him blush a little in embarrassment, the man laughed as he took the bowl. "Looks like your stomach wants to be feed some more, though! Guess you didn't eat anything since you came here. Don't worry; I'll just give you a free refill for today." He stopped for a moment when he was near the kitchen. "Y'know, you're kind of like Naruto, just not as hyper. But I get the feeling you two will be great friends. He's comes to the shop around this time; why don't you wait to meet him?" With that, the man went into the kitchen to refill the bowl. Kiyoshi smiled a little to himself. Meet Naruto; that would definitely be an interesting experience. Kiyoshi chuckled a little to himself.
"CRASH!"
Kiyoshi looked in alarm the moment he heard a bowl hit the floor and saw a group of large men standing around the table. And one of them was advancing toward the lady from earlier! Kiyoshi's eyes narrowed immediately when he saw that the lady didn't like his advances and quietly snuck toward a bowl of hot ramen. "C'mon baby! Don't be like that," The advancing man had said to the lady; Kiyoshi could just see the perverted smile under the piece of cloth that covered his mouth. Again the lady backed away from the man, literally giving the guy a glare that told him to back off. That made man frown but he was soon encouraged by the other men who were shouting things like "Go get her boss," and "Use yer charm on her!" "Listen baby, why don't you leave this dump and come back to my place? We both could have the room all to our-YOWCH!" The man yelped the moment he felt something burning hot pour down his back. And there was a lot of it going down! "WHO THE HELL DID THAT!? I SWEAR I'M GONNA KILL THAT TEME WHEN I, DAIKON THE GREAT, GET MY-"
"Yo genius, turn around."
The man angrily turned to see Kiyoshi standing in front of the lady with a really wide, cat-like smirk across his face; he was holding a large ramen bowl in one hand. "So, you want your death wish granted early, eh kid? Just be honored you'll die at the hands of Daikon, the greatest rogue ninja of all time!"
Kiyoshi looked at this guy for a moment like he was stupid and then he gently whispered something in the lady's ear. She looked a little unsure but Kiyoshi's eyes urged her to go, so she did. Once she was gone to the kitchen with the man, Kiyoshi calmly put the bowl that he had down and turned back to the man again, this time with a wider smirk as he began to walk outside.
"HEY, DON'T YOU TURN YOUR BACK ON ME," Daikon shouted angrily.
Kiyoshi looked back at him and rolled his eyes. "You want to fight me right? Well, we should at least have some room to attack each other and make it easier on both of us." His eyes flashed impishly when he saw the man alarmed. "Unless you're afraid to fight a 'Kid' Daikon." That made the man furious and he, along with the rest of the group, went to go outside, making sure to push an old lady, who Kiyoshi quickly caught, while they were at it. "You don't need to do this; you're going to get yourself hurt," an old lady said anxiously as Kiyoshi helped her to her feet.
"I know, but I really do owe those two for everything; they're one of the few people who treated me like a human being. Hopefully they can get some ninjas there before someone gets hurt." He turned to the old lady a little worriedly. "Make sure you don't go near our fight. I don't think they'll hesitate to attack a old lady." With that Kiyoshi ran out of the ramen shop, leaving the old lady smiling a little to herself. "For someone so quiet, he seems a little like Naruto." She frowned slightly when she saw Kiyoshi getting ready to fight the large ninja, who had a very large dagger hidden in his pants. "But I don't think you'll get far trying to fight with your bare hands alone." The old lady immediately did hand signs and went to get help for the strange, new arrival…
"So, are there any rules I should know of or do you guys have no morals at all," Kiyoshi asked sarcastically, watching Daikon crack his neck. By the time both had gotten outside, there was a crowd surrounding them. Obviously, they didn't see the seriousness of the situation; Kiyoshi couldn't help roll his eyes at the overly battle excited people.
"Hey, how dare you say that I, the Great Daikon, don't have morals!" He took off his cape and threw it in the air; obviously trying to act cool, but it flew in his face by mistake. "Augh, I can't see! Get this thing off of me!" The other men quickly came to his aid, though a little clumsily. A few people were laughing at this circus-like group; even Kiyoshi had to snicker a little at these strange people. "Please welcome Baka hood and his band of stupid men," Kiyoshi accidentally said aloud, causing practically every person fall on the ground laughing.
The man growled angrily as he threw off his men and threw a kunai at Kiyoshi's feet. "Okay brat, these are the rules; no other weapon besides the kunai at your feet and you can't get a person from the crowd to help you either. The last one breathing wins. Got that pretty boy," Daikon snarled between gritted teeth as Kiyoshi gingerly picked up the ninja knife, observing it a little.
"Um, I have one question though," Kiyoshi said with a slightly cocked head as he held the kunai in his hand tightly.
Daikon smirked a little in pride. "Are you going to ask me how to beg for mercy?"
"No, I just wanted to know how I'm supposed take this fight seriously. I mean, you couldn't even get a cape of yourself without those guys. And what's your name supposed to do; I can't take anyone named after a veggie very seriously," Kiyoshi answered bluntly. Everyone was now crying in laughter; even some of Daikon's men were laughing their butts off. Kiyoshi stood there a little blankly as he saw Daikon shiver in anger; all he did was ask a question, but Daikon wasn't answering it. "YOU'RE GONNA DIE, YOU LITTLE TEME!" Without much warning, Daikon charged at Kiyoshi and tried to slit his throat. But Kiyoshi just stood there, waiting patiently for Daikon until he was close enough. Kiyoshi's eyes flashed a sudden blood-red color and he grabbed Daikon's forearm, twisting it to his back. Daikon growled a little but immediately stayed shut the moment he felt the sharp cold metal of the kunai very close to his throat; Kiyoshi had managed to grab the kunai before he had completely turned around to Daikon's back. He pressed the kunai a little closer to his neck and felt Daikon shiver fearfully as Kiyoshi's other hand held him, causing Daikon to be pinned to the ground. Kiyoshi was very quiet as he continued to feel Daikon shiver in fear for 10 minutes and suddenly his eyes turned a light blue; he lightly scratched Daikon's throat, letting a few drops of blood fall on the blade, and released his grip on the older man. He got off of Daikon's back and stared down at him with a look that made Daikon even more furious; Pity. "WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING!? I'M STILL BREATHING! I DON'T WANT ANY MERCY FROM SOME 14-YEAR-OLD," Daikon said as he tried to stand up, still a little shaken from the boy's sudden show of power.
Kiyoshi looked back at the man and just shook his head. "First of all, I'm 16; get that right. And second of all, my grandfather taught me not to kill cowards." He looked down at Daikon again, his eyes changing into a dark intimidating indigo. "You rely too much on your men, so you are both weak in body and spirit; fight me again when you get stronger," Kiyoshi added the words that a man had taught him before, walking away calmly; Kiyoshi, at least, felt that the fight was over the moment he had proven his point. But he soon realized that turning away from Daikon was a big mistake. A sudden sharp pain came to his arm, causing Kiyoshi to yell as he fell to the ground, breathing heavily in agony. The pain was blinding; so blinding, that Kiyoshi thought he was going to faint right then and there. But he clenched his teeth together and put his hand near his arm, where he felt some things stabbed deep in his arm. He grabbed it and yanked it out as hard and fast as he could; by that time Kiyoshi was in so much pain that his whole body felt numb. What he saw seemed to fuel his anger even more; a kunai, along with two needles, were resting at the palm of his hand. Worst of all, was the fact that these were most likely poisoned. As if he read Kiyoshi's mind, Daikon began to laugh at the now weakened boy. "Yep brat, there's poison in them alright! That's what you get for being so cocky in the first place!" Kiyoshi heard Daikon's feet shuffle a little as he turned to his men. "Um… D-Daikon, don't you think you went a little too far? It's a kid, for crying out loud," One of Daikon's men, a white bearded one, said a little uneasily; Kiyoshi could just feel the sorry stares that the man, along with the crowd, were giving him as he cringed a little in pain as he continued to keep a tight grip on the weapons as he laid on the floor.
Daikon's voice rose into a type of snarl. "That brat got what he deserved. No worthless failure like that has the right to call a superior like me a coward."
Kiyoshi's body stiffened when that word passed through that man's lips.
"Worthless failure"
Kiyoshi stopped shivering and clutched the three weapons in his hand even tighter than ever as he slowly picked himself off the ground and turned toward Daikon's direction; his head faced toward the ground and his arms swung from side to side a little. "Um, Daikon, I don't think that the fight's over; the kid's standing up," The white bearded man said as he pointed to Kiyoshi's direction.
Daikon slowly turned around and saw what his man said was true; the boy, who he had expected to stay on the ground, was standing just a foot away from him. This made him a little uneasy, but Daikon wasn't about to show fear toward a boy like this. "So what, you want to say something?"
Kiyoshi didn't respond.
This made Daikon get a little confidence. "Or do you really want to ask for mercy now?"
He STILL didn't respond, but he did take one step forward; Daikon was just too absorbed in fake triumphant pride to notice.
"I just may give you the antidote for all that poison in you… IF you bow down to your superior and beg for forgiveness," Daikon said smugly, showing Kiyoshi a vial of pink liquid.
Now Kiyoshi responded to that! He ran so fast that it startled Daikon and caught him off guard; no one should be able to move like that, especially someone so badly poison! By the time Daikon had gotten ready to react it was too late; Kiyoshi had gotten behind him and had stabbed him so fiercely on his arm, knocking over the vial while he was at it. Kiyoshi was very uneasy as he did this; he had gotten into a few fights before, but he never used a weapon to hurt the person; it didn't help that the smell of the blood made him want to throw up. He didn't notice Daikon's men behind him, but he felt himself being thrown away from Daikon. Kiyoshi slid across the dirt ground and with the opened wound on his arm, it didn't ease the pain. He was so badly injured by this time but he still managed to get back on his feet, coughing a little blood out as he stood up firmly.
"ARE YOU INSANE!? THAT WAS THE ONLY VIAL THAT COULD CURE THE POISON," Daikon yelled in alarm, panicking a little when he saw that the weapons that he had used against Kiyoshi were on his arm. But if he thought that was alarming, the moment Kiyoshi lifted his head to look at straight at him was down right terrifying; instead of the calm sapphire colored his eyes normally were it was blood red; they now resembled the ones of a cat completely.
Kiyoshi noticed Daikon's terrified expression and smirked. "At least it makes the fight even. What's the matter you look like you see a monster." The smirk was soon replaced with a very angry scowl. "Normally, I would've just walked away from spineless cowards like you, but for you to go so low that you would call people 'worthless failures'… Just who do you think you are?! Every life has a purpose in this world; no matter how different we are from each other, it doesn't mean that our lives aren't worth anything! I hate people who think that they have the right to look down on everyone, especially if their different from them! That is so sick and twisted in a way I can't describe." Kiyoshi didn't notice a large, shadowy creature smiling down at him from one of the roofs or the ashamed faces that the adults had on their faces as he took out his kunai. "Made you need to be taught a lesson. Let's see what you got against a 'Failure' like me; c'mon you spineless coward," Kiyoshi said in a dangerous, low snarl.
"K-Kid, you don't need to do this! It's not worth fighting for; you're too wounded as it is," a man from the crowd called anxiously.
Kiyoshi shoot him a spine-chilling glare. "Stay out of this! It's me and him now; I don't care if I get kicked out of here just for fighting for what I believe in! I've been hurt more than this before anyway!" When the man didn't call him again Kiyoshi turned his attention back to Daikon; his calm but deadly blood eyes made Daikon very nervous. "Now that there aren't anymore objections, let's get this over with.
Daikon watched Kiyoshi get into a battle stance and took a step back; this time, he could tell Kiyoshi was dead serious. "Y-YOU MONSTER!"
Kiyoshi looked at Daikon quietly and his eyes flashed dangerously again. "Maybe I am a monster; but that doesn't change the tide of battle. Let me show you how strong a 'monster failure' could truly be," Kiyoshi shouted as he got ready to strike.
Then they all heard the roar
Kiyoshi looked up on the roof and saw the large creature for the first time; it was the largest white tiger that he had ever seen, assuming it was one in the first place. The way its stripes were formed, the odd emblem marks on its shoulder blades, the immense size, its saber tooth-like teeth; that was definitely NOT your run-of-the-mill tiger at all. The tiger notice that Kiyoshi's gaze had came toward it and grinned a sharp fanged grin again. It looked toward the sky and roared again, leaping down to Kiyoshi's side. It turned to take a closer look at Kiyoshi and saw the deep wound on his arm, which seemed to make it furious for some reason. Its muscles were flexed as it snarled at the group of men; it had obviously could smell the scent of Daikon mixing with the blood. "Do you want me to teach them a lesson," it growled to him almost eagerly, its eyes glinting at the very thought of battle.
Kiyoshi looked at the tiger the moment he had heard the voice and figured out its gender when he heard the melody-like voice; a girl and it was very hot blooded by the sound of it. He walked cautiously toward the tiger and rested his good hand at the side of its fur face, which was surprisingly soft yet rough at the same time; the tiger purred deeply as his hand gently stroke the side of her face. "Do what you want, but leave me some fighting," Kiyoshi said calmly as he began to stroke her neck soothingly, causing her to purr louder.
By this time, Daikon was terrified out of his mind! This boy couldn't be human; not only was he standing, even with all that poison inside him, but he looked like he was taming the large tiger that stood protectively next to him. "I-If you think some big alley cat's gonna stop this fight then you wrong," Daikon growled angrily.
The tiger look toward him and hiss lowly; she had seen his hand twitch toward his weapon. "Now do I fight," she asked Kiyoshi. He looked at her calmly as he continued to stroke her neck calmly. "Not yet… Why don't you tell me your name while you're at it? I think I should know who I'm fighting alongside with," Kiyoshi said with a small smile.
The tiger smiled a little at this question. "You may call me Akari, Young Master."
Kiyoshi looked at Akari a little blankly. "Young Master? That's gonna take a long time to get used to."
The white tiger chuckled a little at the child-like expression; this boy sure was something. But while the two were chatting to each other casually, Daikon was getting more anxious and angry by the minute; the beast and boy were just standing and talking as though he wasn't even there. They didn't seem the least bit worried. "How dare you ignore me in the middle of a battle! You've made a fool of me for the last time," Daikon snarled angrily as he called his men angrily to him. They all quickly went to his sides [except for the white bearded man and got into fighting stances, kunai and shurikans held in each hand.
Akari kept a steady on the group of men but didn't move; Kiyoshi had ordered her not to yet. Still, it didn't hurt to ask. "NOW do I fight," she asked eagerly.
Kiyoshi closed his eyes as he continued to smile. "Yeah, let's get this over with already. Just don't kill anyone."
Akari frowned playfully. "Now, you're just taking the fun out of everything." Kiyoshi just chuckled and gentle patted the neck once. Right at that signal, Akari snarled and was upon the group of men in seconds. They all didn't stand a chance; the tiger was brutally strong and extremely fast and Kiyoshi was quite a threat by himself, not really needing the aid of Akari that much. It didn't take long for the brawl to end; with the tiger's amazing skills and Kiyoshi's calm demeanor and quick-witted instincts, it wasn't really a surprise. In only a few minutes, Daikon and his men were on the ground in defeat, bruised and utterly weakened. Akari and Kiyoshi still stood, only difference was Akari had not mark to prove that they had used any of their weapons on her [And they did. Kiyoshi didn't get off as easily; there were now even more open wounds on his legs, a few on the chest, and the arm wound he had early was even deeper than before. Akari noticed the uneven breathing that Kiyoshi struggled to do and fury began to rise again. She walked toward Daikon and placed his head between her dangerous jaws. "Didn't I tell you no killing?"
Akari flipped her ear toward the sound of Kiyoshi's voice and dropped Daikon's head; although he didn't yell, she could tell that he wasn't too happy about her motives. "Why are you protecting someone who nearly killed you; he may come after you again," Akari told him with a slight scowl.
Kiyoshi looked down at the weakened group and straight at Akari's eyes; once again, his eyes changed, this time to a soothing olive color. "I'm not protecting him, but killing him isn't worth it either. I've proven my point; failures have a worth in this world and I know that it's a lesson he's not gonna forget easily. Besides, it's not right to kill someone without having a good reason, and I don't mean revenge either. Besides, I don't really think killing a coward will be worth anything," Kiyoshi added with a weak smirk.
Akari looked a little taken aback but just sighed slightly and walked toward him. "You're too soft for your own good, you know that?"
Kiyoshi slightly chuckled as he felt himself losing consciousness and fall to the ground; the battle took all the strength he had to fight back. Now he could feel the poison taking effect. "Kiyoshi!" He heard Akari's alarmed voice as he saw her run anxiously toward him. "I'm…I'm sorry…Naomi," Kiyoshi thought to himself as his vision became blurry. The rest was all a fading part. But he could've sworn he saw some other people standing over him, one saying, "I can't Believe It!..."
Well, that's the end of this chapter. I bet I left questions like 'who's Naomi' and 'why can Kiyoshi understand the tiger'. Though I think I made it kind of obvious who was standing over him! If you don't know... Good back and watch Naruto.
Kiyoshi: You know, I personally think that it's the most corniest joke you ever came up with --
ID: Hey, if I feel like saying something corny then I'm saying it!
Kiyoshi: You say everything without thinking. It worries me someimes.
ID: Awwww, you care about me! You really care about me!
Kiyoshi: Um, you created me, I'm supposed to care.
ID: Good point. Well do you want to do the honors?
Kiyoshi:...I have to, don't I?
ID: Just for this chapter for now. Remember; you're the main host!
Kiyoshi: Okay then, Make sure to read chapter 3 "Do you Really want to know?" How was that?
ID: Yay, go Kiyoshi! Oh, don't forget to review your opinions on the story and the characters so far. Oh, and some advice while everyone's at it! Bye!
Kiyoshi: Yeah, see yeah.
ID: Can't you be more hyper?
