It's been three days since we started our journey to Konoha. We've been sleeping in the forest and of course bathe on rivers. Don't worry, we don't bathe together so keep those minds to yourselves. He's really dedicated into being my big brother.
On and on the past days we're like. "Let Onii-chan do it."
"I'll make fire because it's onii-chans duty."
"I'll be on guard so that no pervert would peek on my imotou."
Yeah, some may find it annoying but really I think it's convenient. I'm treated like a princess without even asking it. You see, I was the only child of the family so I wouldn't know how siblings work.
Anyway, going back to my problem…
I grumbled at my mobile device. 'Post! Post! Post Darn it!' I keep on hitting post but it won't work.
"Argh!" A grunt came out from my mouth.
"Woah, what's gotten you all worked up?" I heard Tsuyoshi asked while checking the fish setting on fire. "Just a little more."
"What's wrong with your world? Doesn't it have WiFi?" I finally gave up on posting.
"What's a Why Fly? Why the heck would we need to fly?" He blinked in confusion.
I sighed and shook my head. "Never mind."
It's the Naruto era after all, what do I expect, free internet? I'd be lucky if the internet was even invented here.
"Is it ready?"
"Yeah, here!" He gave me a fish-que (My term for fish in a stick)
I blew to lessen the heat on the now cooked food before taking a bite.
"How many days before we finally reach Konoha?"
"Two, I think." He took another bite on his fish
"I never knew that you're capable of thinking." I joked.
"Hey I heard that!"
"It was meant to be heard, dummy."
He sighed and gave me a look. Oh I know that look. He's gonna lecture me again.
"Kanagi-chan, how many times do I have to tell you that you should respect your onii-chan."
"My respect needs to be earned, Onii-chan." I mocked.
His eyes twinkle all of a sudden before hugging me. "You finally called me onii-chan!" His tears fell like waterfalls. This is more amusing in real life.
Our past conversation was set aside due to his dramatic phase. He was still talking to his fish about how happy he is when I finally got my back pack.
"Yow, onii-chan let's go."
His moment was cut off but his happiness never faded. Oh brother.
We started our journey once again. Tsuyoshi was telling me with random stories, so I put my earphones on. Music in, World out.
I was nodding my head to the music, my companion thought that I was listening to him but clearly I'm absorbed in my own world. I guess, we've been walking for hours now when-
"You fall in love zing boom" I swayed my head "the sky up above zing boom" I swayed my hips.
My sudden outburst both made me and Tsuyoshi surprised. I do have a tendency to sing out loud when I'm into the song.
I finally removed my earphones. "Uh." I looked around with an embarrass face. "Sorry." I scratched my cheek. "I had to get that song out of my head."
He looked at me with an amuse expression. "I don't know that song, what is it called?"
"It's oh so quiet."
"Can you sing it?"
"No." I shook my head. "I don't sing."
"But you sang a minute ago."
"I don't sing." I repeated.
I looked at him sharply before finally giving up on my good side. "But you can listen to the song if you want."
He had a confused look.
"Here, put this on your ear just like ear plugs." I handed him my earphones and did as what I had told him to do.
I rewind the song. His showed a surprise face. "WOW! This is cool!"
"Not so loud you dummy."
"What?"
I remove the left earphone. "I said, not so loud, try not to talk while you listen, okay?"
He nodded.
"Good."
I gave him back the earphones and went back to walking.
KETE!
I think I heard something but shrugged it off.
TASUKETE!
Now I really think I heard a voice. "Did you hear that?"
I looked at Tsuyoshi whom was busy humming. A sweat drop appeared.
"TSUKETE!" This time it's louder. I ran to the direction of the voice and found a boy tied upside down. His hair was black in color, his emerald eyes were wide with fear. His right leg was tied in a rope. Below him was a pair of eyeglasses.
I shook my head in disbelief. "What are you hanging around here for?" I picked up the eyeglasses and examined it for damages.
"I got caught in a trap. "
"Obviously, idiot." I muttered. "Hang on tight, I'm gonna cut the rope."
"Do I have a choice?"
"No, but you can prepare yourself."
He was surprise for a moment. "For whaAAAAH-" his statement was cut off when he found himself falling. "OOF-" He grunted.
"For that." I smirked.
"Thanks for the warning." He said sarcastically making me laugh.
"No problem, here." I gave him the eyeglasses.
"Thanks"
"What happened?" An exhausted looking Tsuyoshi came to our view. "You just ran off like-" He looked at the boy before me. "Who's he?"
The lad stood up and dusted himself. "Honda, Kageru."
"I found him tied up to a tree." I explained. "I'm Saito, Kanagi." I introduced.
"And I'm Kato, Tsuyoshi her bigbrother." He said smugly.
I did what the proper expression should have been done and face palmed. "Don't mind him, he's having his moments."
"So, how'd you end up hanging around in this place?
"Ha-ha." He said sarcastically. "Stop with the pon."
I shrugged.
"I'm on my way to Konohagakure"
"We're heading there too." I took my mobile phone from Tsuyoshi's hands. "Wanna come with us?"
"Hey! Don't just invite random people!" Tsuyoshi scolded.
"We'll you invited me and I was a stranger."
"He's right, I might be a murderer" Kageru agreed.
I raised an eyebrow. "Oh really? A murder who gets caught by a trap?" I shook my head. "An idiot perhaps."
"Hey!"
"If you don't want to join us that's fine." I tighten my grip on my backpack. "We'll be ahead if you change your mind."
Dear readers, I might not be able to post this second update but don't worry everything will be put in my drafts. When I get back I promise that you'll see this in my page.
With love,
