The Beginning

Chapter 2

Mirai walked into the living room only to see her mother getting ready to leave, She walked over to the counter and learned forwards on to it as she watched their mother give yuuki a goodbye hug before moving towards Naruto giving him his own hug. A part of her couldn't help think about what just happened a minute ago, but an image of Naruto giving them his own goodbye hug as he left for college. She was brought out of her thoughts as she saw her mother end the hug and began to walk towards her, a small smile on her face. She felt arms rap around her and the familiar feeling of a mothers warmth.

"Are you alright," she heard her mother ask. Mirai looked up at her to see a sightly worried look on her mother's face. She almost wanted to shout out, "no fucking da I'm not all right, I just found out that my brother is leaving for college," but she didn't.

"I'm alright," she said trying to ease her worries, but she could still see the sadness on her mothers face.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean for you to get mad over this. I just thought it would be nice for you to spend so time with you brothers, but I should have asked if it was alright with you," she said as she pulled her into another hug. Mirai looked over her mother's shoulder to see Naruto with a small smile and yuuki who had a grin the went from ear-to-ear.

"I'm the one who should be apologizing, I should've reacted to the news better," Mirai she watched Naruto's smile grow bigger. After another quick round of goodbyes to everyone and a 'what you should do if' list their mother finally began to words the door with Naruto carrying the extra bags to the car. After another wave goodbye their mother finally began to leave to pick their father and begin their vacation.

"Alright you guys lets get back inside so I can get dinner ready and maybe we can watch a movie or something afterwards," said as he made his way into the house followed closely behind by yuuki who was asking what their going to be having. Mirai began to walk inside but stopped at the door way and looked towards the direction that their mother went. She couldn't explain why but out of nowhere a wave of bad feelings washed over her and it scared her. She didn't move or look away from the direction until yuuki started Asking if everything was ok. Almost as if yuuki could push away any bad feel she could feel, she felt the bad feeling disappear leaving her slightly confused if it was just a figment of her imagination. She looked towards yuuki only to see a worried look, "I'm alright, don't worry about me," she said as looked down the hall to see Naruto standing there with a confused look.

"Is everything ok," he asked as he began to walk towards her.

'If I tell him he'll probably think that I'm crazy or something,' she thought to her as she watched him look her over and even place a hand on her forehead to see if she had a fever.

"Do you feel ok sis," yuuki asked with slightly worried look, she never liked seeing her brother with that type of look on him. She let out a sigh as she said "I don't know what came over me, I just got this really bad feeling that something going to happen," she said her voice just a little bit louder the a whisper. This made yuuki shot his brother a worried look at the thought of their family getting hurt.

"Big bro! Is mom and dad going to be ok?," he asked Naruto, who's eyes narrowed lightly. Mirai regretted tell yuuki about her feeling. she didn't like see yuuki, who was a mainly a care free type of kid, worried about her bad feeling.

"I wouldn't worry, mom's to awesome to let anything hurt her or dad," Naruto said trying to clam his little brother down. Mirai could see the worry fade from his face and get replaced by a happy smile. Apart of her was grateful that Naruto helped her out.

"Yeah! Don't worry about it yuuki it's just a feeling I had," Mirai said as she walked passed Naruto and put her arm around yuuki putting him in a one armed hug as the two walked into to the living room together. Naruto smiled at the two as he closed the door and made his way to the living room. As the night went on Naruto ended up make a nice dinner for them, which both yuuki and Mirai loved. After that they ended up watching one of Mirai's anime movie which included a lot of fighting and yelled. After that they ended up watching so tv shows. Naruto smiled as he saw yuuki sleeping on his sisters shoulder and Mirai, who was trying really hard not to fall asleep herself. He ended up picking yuuki up and bringing him to bed then coming back and doing the some, but as Naruto placed her on her bed.

"Goodnight," she whispered as he kissed her forehead and made his way out the door making sure to close it behind him. He made his way down the hall towards the living room to clean up the mess the made for the movies that they watched. He sighed as he made is way to the kitchen to clean the dishes from dinner. When he was done he could himself fall onto his bed as all the work from today drained him. He looked up at the clock on his night stand only to see 11:30 pm showing on the surface after that he could help but fall asleep.

"Naru….Naruto……..NARUTO!!" He heard a voice calling his name. After a second he felt himself being shaken. He ended up opening one eye to see Mirai standing there with her hand placed on her waste. Naruto ended up groaning out "what time is it?" Which made Mirai sighed

"It's 8:30 in the morning," she said as another groan could be heard from her brother.

"Sorry I should have gotten up earlier to make you guys break-," he started but was cut off by Mirai, "I took care of breakfast and got our stuff ready to leave," she said proudly with a smile on her face. Naruto couldn't help but feel proud of his little sister. With out warning Naruto got up from his bed and stood in front of her. She gave him a confused look and was about to say something, but was cut off by him placing his hand on her head, which messed up her hair lightly. "I'm so proud of you Mirai," he said as he watched her face be covered by a light pink.

"Yeah, well it wasn't a big deal or anything. Just get dressed and come get your breakfast before it gets cold," she said looking away from him to hind the blushing from the praise. Before he could say anything she left the room which made a small smile from on his face. Mirai sighed to herself as she made her way to the kitchen table where yuuki was happily eating the pancakes the she made. She could almost guarantee that it had to be about the robot exhibition. She smiled as at him before taking a seat to begin her own.

"Where's big bro?" Yuuki asked before digging into the next pancake. Right as she was about respond before their heard the door of Naruto's room open as he walked out. Mirai could see that he was wearing a grey hoodie and camouflage cargo pants, but she saw him holding a backpack. She watched him walk towards the door and placed his bag down before making his way towards them. As he took his seat he said good morning to them as he stared eating his pancakes.

"Big bro how are we going to get there?" Yuuki ask in a cheerful tone as he looked over to his older brother. Naruto smiled at yuuki. "We'll be taking a bus which will take about an hour to get there," Naruto said simply before continuing to eat his pancakes. Mirai looked from him then towards the backpack that he placed at by the door.

"What's with the backpack," she asked as she finished his pancakes. Naruto looked from her to the backpack that he set down.

"Oh that, it's just some backup supplies that could come in handy if anything happens," he said in a nonchalant manner as he finished his pancakes. Yuuki looked from his pancake to his brother before asking "is something bad going to happen," which made place a hand his little brothers head.

"I wouldn't let anything bad happen to you or Mirai," he said in determinate way as he picked up the empty plates and took them to the sink. Mirai couldn't help but remember the feeling that she had yesterday but quickly shook it out of her head as she got ready to go. Naruto stood by the door watching them get their shoes on as his eyes narrowed lightly at the sight of Mirai putting on her sandals.

"Mirai is it possible for you to wear your running shoes today" he asked making her look at him with a raised eyebrow.

"Why?,"she answered simply.

"Because your feet will probably get really sore from all the walking that we will be doing today," he said as she thought about it for a second before sighing as she took of her sandals and put on her school running shoes. After everyone was ready the took off towards the bus stop that was at the end of their complex. It did take long for them to arrive at the bus stop. After wait for a couple of minutes the bus arrived at the stop. Both yuuki and Mirai took their seat by the window as Naruto payed for their ride. After pay Naruto took hi seat beside Mirai who was certainly talking to yuuki about the safety of the bus. Naruto looked around the bus to only see that there was only a couple other people on the bus which surprised him sightly it wasn't unusual for the bus to have some people on it, but the fact that it was the weekend and the first day of summer, he expected there to be more people on the bus, he quickly forgot about it as he pulled out a book called "the girl who owned the city,". It didn't take long for him to get lost in the book that it had to take yuuki pushing him for him to look up at yuuki who was pointing out the window towards the bridge that they were making there was towards. Mirai, who was certainly looking at her phone, looked up at her two brothers. She turned her attention from them towards where they were looking, which was out at the beautiful ocean that was underneath the bridge. After what seemed like forever 'which was only 5 minutes' before Naruto closed his book and put it in his bag before pulling the string. The bus stopped at it's nearest stop as the thee walked off on to the sidewalk.

They watched the bus pull away and began down the street leaving the three there. After walking for a couple minutes Mirai, who at this point was bored, an idea popped into her head as a smile appeared on her face.

"Are we there yet?" She asked as Naruto gave her a small smile.

"Sorry you guys, I ended up getting us of at the wrong stop," he said lightly embarrassed at the mistake. Mirai was about to say something but was cut off by yuuki, who ran in front of the and walked backwards to see them.

"It's ok big bro, a little bit of walking wouldn't hurt anyone," yuuki said make both Naruto an Mirai smile at him, but the three didn't notice the person standing on the street drinking their water. What happened next was an accident, yuuki ended up accidentally walking into the person make them drop their drink on to the sidewalk.

Naruto's eyes widened as he saw what happened. He ran to check on his little brother, who was dusting him self. After making sure his little brother was ok he look up to see the person. The person was a lady in her late twenties or early thirties, who had a rounded face with brown eyes and light brown long hair done up into a high ponytail. She stood around the same height as Naruto. She also had on a red jacket 'with some sort of picture on it', with a black under shirt and black jeans.

"I'm so sorry, I can buy you a new one," Naruto asked the lady. The lady looked from Naruto to yuuki, who was hiding behind his leg. After a couple seconds a smile came to her face as she looked to Naruto and said "it's no big deal. I have a couple extra water bottles in my bike," she said in a happy tone before bending down to look at yuuki.

"But next time be careful and watch out were your walking so you don't walk into anyone," she said as a smile came to yuuki face.

"My names Naruto and this my little brother and sister, yuuki and Mirai," Naruto said as he extended his hand out to her. She looked at his hand before happily shacking it. "My names Mari and it's a pleasure to meet you" she said as she shock hands. Naruto looked down at his watch be his eyes widened as he was the time.

"Sorry burly we got to get going, it was a pleasure to meet you," Naruto said as he looked to his younger siblings.

"Yeah I have to get back to work. I hope to see you guys again some day," she said as she got her bike and took off down the street. Naruto smiled as he turned to look at Mirai and yuuki before making his way towards the expo. Mirai looked from them back to the way Mari left, she couldn't help but wonder if she would meet that woman again.
