Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto. Otherwise Naruto would stop being so oblivious and kiss Hinata already!
Well it's me, Princess Kaminari with another chapter! Gee, I'm a fast uploader, aren't? Yay me!
Well, anyways, I know this story hasn't had Gaara yet, but he's coming! Don't you worry! ;D
Well, thanks for the reviews, favorites, and follows.
-Princess Kaminari of the Sand
I stared up at the blonde in front of me in awe. I shook my head quickly to regain my senses. "Hi!"
More staring from Naruto. It was like he was trying to figure me out of something.
"Why are you all alone over here?" he finally asked.
"I'm a new citizen of this place." I informed. "Only got a bit of money, so I'm planning my life ahead of me."
"Your life?" Naruto sat down and listened with curiosity that surprisingly seemed genuine.
"Yeah, like what I'm going to do. Apparently, I've got no chakra, so I can't chase my dream of becoming a ninja." I sighed. "So I guess a mangaka could work out."
"Mangaka?" Naruto asked. Geez, he asked a lot.
"Yeah, like someone who creates manga, pictures and words." I explained. I don't think I described my dream career very well, but whatever.
"Well, how come you've got no chakra?"
"No idea. It's totally unfair. I've got amnesia, dude."
"Then how do you know you want to be a mangaka?"
Darn it, stop asking questions!
"Um.. Heart's calling?" I giggled nervously.
Naruto gave me a look that reflected extreme suspicion, but he nodded.
"What else are you going to do?"
"I'M GONNA MARRY GAARA-KUN! KYAA~" I jumped up and squealed before I could even gain control over myself.
"Gaara? The Gaara?" Naruto blinked in disbelief.
"Yeah." I sat back down, realizing I just blew my cover. "So much for the amnesia story you never even bought."
"Ha! I knew you didn't have amnesia!" Naruto exclaimed. "The future Hokage knows all!"
I groaned. "Keep it down! Tsunade-sama believed it! I don't need my crappy cover blown!"
Naruto looked at me. "So really, why and how are you here?"
I stared at Naruto. From observations, this guy was pretty darn trustworthy.
"Alright, promise not to tell?" I narrowed my eyes.
"Of course I won't tell! Believe it!" Naruto grinned.
"Alright, well, see this notebook?" I held up the worn spiral notebook in my hand. Naruto nodded. "It has the ability to transport me into this dimension, and back to my own universe."
Naruto stared for a second before bursting into laughter, like I did with Misaki.
"Right, right," he laughed, wiping tears from his eyes. "I get it, don't tell me. So why are you here?"
I sighed, before brightening at my response. "To get to Gaara-kun, of course! Why else?"
Naruto blinked. Okay, really guys. Gaara is amazing. From when he was an innocent, lonely kid that wanted nothing but friends to the murderous pre-teen, to the mature Kazekage he is now. Don't you dummies see that?
"Well, I'll be leaving." I got up. "I need to find a place to stay. I'm allowed to skip the ninja academy since I pretty much know everything. But I've got a private tutor, so I'm pretty nervous."
"Wow, you apparently know everything, even though you say you've got amnesia." Naruto mused. "How on earth did you pull that off?"
"Heart's calling?" I tried again meekly.
"Yeah, yeah. I'd offer you my place to stay over at, but Sasuke's bunking with me right now. See you again."
"Hey, I never got your name," I pretended. Might as well play the act of a stranger, right?
"Uzumaki Naruto, you're looking at the future Hokage!" Naruto flashed me a toothy grin that spread form ear to ear. "What about you?"
"I'm Ayumi Akahana, official Queen of Awesomeness," I boasted. "See you again, Naruto!"
Naruto waved. I lugged my backpack, Ramen, and notebook with me as I tried to find a new place to stay for the night.
"Wake up," a strong hand smacked me awake. Ouch.
I jumped a foot into the air, glaring at the idiot who grabbed me from the depths of my peaceful slumber. I saw that it was that stupid random ninja from yesterday. Huh. I never got his name, and it's dumb that I only now realize it.
"Dude, if you're gonna be so rude, tell me your name." I scowled, re-positioning myself on the thick tree branch I slept on.
"Classified," the ninja grunted.
"Rank, then?"
"Chunin."
"Very well then, Classified. Good morning." I grinned. I'm pretty sure I looked like I mess, my hair felt tangled and I knew for a fact my bad breath could kill an army of Jounins at the moment.
Another grunt from Classified. He must be one of them grunting Sasuke worshipers.
"Why'd you have to wake me up, though?" I whined. The sun hadn't even risen. Was this some sadistic form of trainee torture?
"Training."
"Wait.. You're my master?" I asked in disbelief.
"Yup."
I groaned and slumped back into the smooth bark of my "bed".
"We don't have time to waste. Come."
"Fine.." I grumbled. I followed Mr. Grumps-a-Lot to a nice enough clearing with lush green grass and sparkling yellow dandelions. I hate dandelions.
"What first?"
"10 laps around Konoha, nail it in two minutes or I'll make you do one thousand one-armed push ups!" Classified barked with intensity. Oh, dear Lord, this guy was loud all of the sudden.
"Yes, sir!" I saluted, and started running. I knew I wouldn't even complete a fourth of a lap in the desired time, but I was the fastest female runner in my high school, so that had to count as something. I most certainly couldn't do one friggin' thousand one-armed push ups. Heck, I couldn't do five normal push ups. What's up with these ninja?
On my third lap, I was wheezing like I was on the verge of death. You know, I probably was. That's nice to know.
"Move it, Ayumi! You call that running? Ha!" Classified yelled.
For Gaara.. For Gaara.. Screw it, I can't do it! I love going all out in everything I do, but even I can't achieve the physically impossible! Well, that's actually a stupid thing to say, considering where I am right now. But still!
"Come on, Classified. You've gotta know that I have boundaries!" I hacked. Yes, hacked as in extreme coughs.
"Shut up, Ayumi! You're doing the push ups!"
I moaned and got down on one arm. I didn't even start my push up before collapsing.
"Disgusting excuse for a wannabee ninja!" spat Classified.
"Hey, shut up, old geezer!" I yelled as I rose to my feet. "I'm positive I could actually do this stuff with a decent teacher!"
"A decent teacher? Oh, you wanna decent teacher?!"
"That's what I just said, you daft idiot!"
"Then I'll get you a decent teacher!"
"That's friggin' great!"
I stomped away, stopping only to collect my backpack and belongings. I knew there was going to be hell to pay later, but I couldn't let that moron push someone as awesome as me around!
"Tsunade-sama's going to hear about this!" Classified's stupid voice yelled faintly in the distance.
"Whatever, ya' friggin' moron!"
"Wait, I'm legitimately going to get a new teacher?" I cheered in extreme happiness. Yeah, suck on that, stupid ninja with a stupid classified name!
"Yes, yes." Tsunade nodded. Next to her, an ever present bottle of sake was half empty. "However, you will need to travel out of Konoha to meet him. Apparently, you are a truly hopeless case and can only be repaired by the best. Unfortunately, I have my hands full with Sakura, but we luckily have an extremely powerful person who will take you."
"Really? I'm that hopeless?" I groaned. "Real ego boosters, that what you people are.."
"Well, your complete lack of chakra really is.. disappointing."
"Disappointing?" I squawked. "But Gaara-kun will never marry someone disappointing!"
"What."
"What."
I giggled nervously, "So.. who's my teacher?"
"None other that the current Kazekage of Suna."
I giggled like I was high. "Current.. Kazekage.."
"Are you okay?" Tsunade asked.
"Heh.. heh.." I fainted on the floor with a really creepy smile on my face. "Gaara-kun..."
"Took you long enough to wake up," I heard Tsunade's voice sighed. "What was up with the whole fainting thing?"
"Nothing!" I squealed. "When do I start?"
"Tomorrow." Tsunade took a swig of sake.
"Tomorrow? But I have to prepare!" I cried. "What color do you think compliments my eyes? Green or purple? No.. scratch that. Yellow ribbon or pink bow?"
Tsunade rolled her eyes. "You know, you wouldn't know about someone hundreds of miles away with your amnesia."
"Oh, I mean.. Cool. Heh, the Kazekage's my teacher. Sweet." I acted cool.
"It's fine, I never bought your story anyways. But you're perfectly harmless anyways, so I'll mind my own beeswax." Beeswax? People like the Hokage say things like beeswax?
"Forgive me, Tsunade-sama." I bowed my head.
"Nah, whatever. But personally, I'll be honest and say your brown eyes and brown hair are made to be unattractive, so don't try."
I froze in midair, my pupils disappearing in shock. "Wha- Tsunade-sama.."
Tsunade snickered. "Well, I'll have Kira escort you to Suna. Don't worry, it'll be a fast journey since I ordered him to carry you on piggyback."
Oh, Tsunade-sama, you evil, evil woman..
"Thank you, Tsunade-sama." I bowed again before leaving. I kept my calm exterior until I reached the forest.
"OH MY FRIGGIN' UNICORNS I'M GETTING TRAINED BY MOTHER FRIGGIN' GAARA!" I screamed in joy. I felt on top of the world. Gaara-kun would take in a nobody like me? Well then, cue the love songs and heart shaped eyes.
"We're here." The ninja who said his name was "classified" was Kira. Ha, gotcha now!
"Thanks a lot, Kira-chan!" Yeah, I get it, it was disrespectful, but what could that idiot do to me now?
An angry vein popped up on Kira's forehead. "Let's get you checked in.." he grumbled.
"Alright, this is gonna be friggin' awesome!" I whooped. "Thanks for wanting to get rid of me, Kira-chan!"
"Stop calling me that." Kira growled. "Oh, and it wasn't I who got you paired up with Kazekage-sama. Apparently you met Naruto, and he's the one who pulled the strings. He said it was a romantic emergency.."
"Aw.. Naruto is so sweet!" I cooed. "Come on, let's go!" I made a mental note to thank Naruto with a huge stuffed unicorn later.
In my arms, Ramen hung limply. I dressed him up with a bowtie though, so he looks suitable for meeting my future husband. After all, after Ramen formed a friendship with Gaara-kun, he was going to be best man at the wedding!
We got past the guards and marched up to the Kazekage tower. I got extreme giddiness in my stomach. I seriously felt as if a trillion wasps found their way into my organs and were buzzing around like they were on Red Bull.
"Here we are," I muttered under my breath as Kira and I stood in front of the door leading into the Kazekage's office. I need a barf bag. Stat.
"Come in," a super sexy, deep voice said form the other side.
"Please refrain from fangirling," Kira murmured angrily as he slid the door open.
Yeah, like that's going to happen.
"Kazekage-sama, this is the girl, Ayumi Akahana, whom you have agreed to specially train," Kira bowed.
When he rose, he gave me a murderous look.
"What?" I asked, glaring at him.
"Bow down! You're being disrespectful! Is this the first impression you want to give the Kazekage, Ayumi?" he hissed.
"Shut up, Kira-chan! I am superior to everyone in the universe, therefore I do not need to be ordered around by the likes of you." I said.
"Bow down!" Kira hissed, his face growing red with embarrassment.
"No!"
"Why, you!" Kira exclaimed angrily before thumping me on my head as hard as he could. I fell on my stomach with an oomph!, a red angry vein forming its way onto my head.
Meanwhile, the Kazekage simply sat behind his desk, arms crossed, and an amused expression playing over his face.
"Kira-chan, you big oaf! That hurt!"
"Not my fault you're such an idiot! Stop fantasizing and be practical!"
"I am practical! I already planned the entire wedding!" I whispered hotly as I stood. This earned me another thump, sending me careening towards the floor again.
"Forgive us for our disrespect, Kazekage-sama." Kira turned to Gaara-kun and bowed. He then faced me. "Ayumi, introduce yourself!"
I stuck my tongue out before turning to Gaara. Omigosh omigosh omigosh omigosh OMIGOSH!
"Ahem, wassup'." I said awkwardly. "I'm Ayumi Akahana, but you can call me Aka-chan, or your future wife, or- GEEZ KIRA, keep sending me to the floor, why don't ya'?"
"Gladly." was his cool response. Dick.
"Sorry, Gaara-kun-OUCH. Kira-chan has mental instability. Forgive him." I gave a tiny bow.
Gaara-kun laughed. "Greetings, I am the Kazekage of Sunagakure. Don't worry, I find your antics quite amusing." A deep laugh. That was enough to send me into a fit of fangirling.
"K-K-KYAAAAAAA~" I dropped on the floor with a blush that took up my entire face.
"Forgive her, Kazekage-sama." Kira bowed. Again. Stop apologizing, you idiot. "She seems to have.. A strong.. Infatuation with you, Kazekage-sama..."
"Can't say that's new," Gaara-kun sighed.
I jumped to my feet immediately. "Ha! No way I am infatuated with you, Gaara-kun!" I stuck my nose in the air. "I am much too awesome for courtship!"
Kira was about to hit me again, but I darted out of the way. Ha ha, Kira-chan.
"I shall take my leave now, Kazekage-sama." Kira bowed. "Excuse me. Goodbye, Ayumi."
"Nooo, Kira-chan! Don't leave me, my cute plushy!" I jumped on Kira's back.
"Grr.. Let go, Ayumi." Kira picked me off his back easily and carefully placed me on the floor. "And.. Good luck."
With that, Kira left me on the floor, clutching Ramen with watery eyes. Alone. With the Kazekage. With Gaara-kun, my future husband.
Alright, that's the end of this chappie!
IMPORTANT: This story does not follow the plot of Naruto! So no Akatsuki, no Sasuke on whatever he was taking in Shippuden, and no huge wars. I wanted to practice developing my own plot. I WILL make this an awesome story though! DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THE GREAT PRINCESS KAMINARI!
Well, I guess that's it. Thanks for your support so far! :3 I will be moving in a few months, so I'm pre-writing all chappies and uploading them weekly.
Favorite, follow, review. You know you wanna.. ;D
May the Force be with You,
Princess Kaminari
Next time on Sand vs ...Bubbles?
"Let go of me!"
"Die, die, die!"
"You must really hate perverts."
"G-Gaara-kun?"
