Well since I haven't gotten any review yet, only alerts, I decided to post chapter two to see if anything changes. Here it is. Oh and for this story's sake please pretend everyone speaks English, no Japanese besides names…hehe THEY GOT STUCK IN THE DUBED VERSION. :D Oh and A WARNING NOW SOME CHARACTERS WILL BE OOC PLEASE DON'T HATE ME FOR IT!
Aya's POV
It only took us a few minutes to get what little we had together and we were about to head out.
"Wait Aya, Jessi, I forgot, I wanted to give you both something!" I turned hearing her call my name but Jessi seemed oblivious, obviously too caught up in her fantasies of meeting the characters, to hear Suki's call.
Rolling my eyes I turned on my heel grabbing Jessi's arm and spinning her with me.
"What do you have for us?" I asked as Jessi tried, much to my amusement, to get her equilibrium back.
"I have gear for you both, I wouldn't like you to going out into our world looking like normal people, you need to look like the ninja I have trained you to be!" she seemed both exited and sad.
Jessi, who had caught up with the conversation smiled at the thought of being in ninja gear.
We both nodded at her and she lead us back into the house.
Leading us into her room, which we had never really been in, she motioned towards a cabinet towards the back end of the room, "since I saw both of you way back then, I devised a large array of clothing that I saw the two of you wearing. There is a lot of clothing to choose from," she waved her hand out as she pulled open the door, " this is everything you can pick from, there is a lot but after knowing you both I find you won't like all of it. Choose your favorites that you shall wear every day and then I will help you…finish…the outfit."
We both looked at her a smiling playing on Jessi's lips, a more devious one on mine…She had picked up on our speech…
Looking to Jessi for confirmation that we were going to take another one of Suki's many things that she might need…I hated taking things from people.
"Why can't we go in this, our training gear? It's not like we are going to run into anybody anytime soon."
"Because, Aya, I would prefer if you were comfortable and plus, you are ninja's now, though not trained through an academy you are probably the strongest people I have ever seen, and I use to be a jonin level examiner before I had my 'sight' I have seen many, many people try and reach high levels of ninja skills but never have I met two who excelled so rapidly. Though that doesn't mean there isn't more to learn, just that you have learned to the best of my ability of what I can teach you. That being said I want you to wear these cloths and be ready to face the world as the no-classified ninja you are."
'Did she just give us a pep talk?' I thought silently but giggled lightly in amusement as Jessi shot straight for the cloths. Mind you she hate shopping and looking for cloths but we have similar tastes (when it comes to cloths most of the time) and she wanted to get to it first.
Sighing I just nodded to Suki who left the room and then walked over to the closet Jessi was now raiding.
"What's up with you?"
"I want to look my best when we meet the characters!" she said excitedly, "I mean come on some of them are really good looking, even if there were only anime characters, and I don't want to look like some commoner!"
"Haruhi," I said thinking of Ouran High school host club.
"Really, Aya?" I just smirked as we looked through the cloths.
Picking out the ones we liked we each went to a separate bathroom, which there was two one guest and one in Suki's quarters, and tried them on.
Jessi's POV
Walking out I smiled as I saw Aya's outfit, it matched her to a dot. She wore elbow high gloves that wrapped around her middle finger, a vest that came off of one shoulder and had three strings of handing cloth on the bottom with only belt like straps connecting the front to the back, underneath that was a sleeveless fishnet shirt. She wore a one sides skirt that on the left side would have shown everything if she hadn't been wearing wrapping-like shorts from her hip to her knees she wore more fishnet before meeting ninja sandals with a small heel. She had placed part of her, long as hell, red hair in a high ponytail, two black ribbons flowing down from said ponytail, while the other three quarters fell down in their normal wave to her knees.
'Well…I always did say she was ninja material,' I thought laughing lightly at the double meaning.
Aya's POV
Hearing a very familiar snicker I looked up to see Jessi standing there, her hand covering her lips in a attempt to hide her laughter.
Glancing over her I decided that she looked really…ninja-y…at least for her being she was a pacifist. Her hair for once, was down, the long black hair reaching her middle back. She wore short cuffed gloves that met wrappings that…well wrapped up to her upper arm ending for about three inches before seeing a military-like vest that had a zipper down the middle. She wore a skirt that ended mid-thigh and everything below that was again covered by wrappings before meeting knee high open toed boots.
"Nice look on you, Miss. I hate skirts," I said jokingly and smiled as she glared at me.
"Your one to talk," she said.
"Touché," I said laughing as she glared at me. She hated it when I spoke another language.
"Bonjour, ca va bein, et tu?" she glared even more at me and I laughed louder.
"I hate you," she bit out.
"Love you too sissy," I said and hugged her and she hugged me back.
"I do hate that your taller than me, you know that?" she said once we pulled away from are sisterly love moment.
"Ehh, not my fault so this time you can't blame me," she just rolled her eyes.
"Girls! Good to see your dressed. I have packed some necessities in a bag for each of you. Aya since you can handle more weight this one it yours," she handed me a bag that had to be thirty pounds, "and here is yours Jessi."
She grabbed the bag and placed it on her back and I followed suit.
After saying final goodbyes we left.
Week later Jessi's POV
I sighed in pleasure as Aya got a fire going…it was cold here at night!
"Its winter get used to it," I glanced up at Aya as she cooked fish over a fire not even looking at me. 'Stupid mind reader.'
Suddenly a supper hot fish was thrust into my face, "dinner," she cherped and I growled at her and drabbed the skewer it was on.
Biting in I immediately pulled back, "Hot, hot, hot."
"No," Aya said and bit into her food ignoring the heat.
"Insane," I shook my head at her.
"Just figure that out?" she said jokingly.
Once we finished I pulled out our sleeping bags…or they were similar to sleepingbags.
"You sleep first. I will keep watch," Aya said before I could ask.
"You have barely slept for days, you sure?" she gave me a look.
"Would you rather I pull one of my twelve hour naps?"
"No," I said quickly.
"Then don't complain, plus I am fine, I don't need much sleep to function, don't get me wrong I love to sleep but I work just as well on four hours sleep compared to eight."
"Not the point," I said, "it isn't healthy."
"When have I ever been 'healthy' besides staying in shape? Have you seen how much I can eat?"
I laughed, "unfortunately yes I have, and your right, healthy is definitely not in your dictionary…All right fine, I will sleep first but wake me up in two hours," I said.
"Yes daughter," she said.
"Good, night Mommy!" I joked back before settling down in my make-shift bed.
"Morning sunshine, the earth…Naruto-verse says hello!" I cheerful voice entered my thoughts and I sprung up aiming to hit the violator.
Suddenly a tight hand wrapped around my wrist stopping my movement.
"Huh?" I said and as my senses started to come back I noticed I almost hit Aya in the face.
"And you say I am bad," she said.
"You are. You broke your brother's jaw once when he woke you up. I was there! And it was with your left hand!"
"Yeah…well he learned his lesson," she said sheepishly.
"Uh huh." Glancing at the sky I glared at her, it was starting to lighten.
"What?"
"TWO HOURS! NOT FIVE!" I snapped and she just shrugged.
"time flies when your minds in the past," she said, "I went for a short jog about half an hour ago and found a pack of wolves…they were so cute!"
I glared at her before pointing at her sleeping bag that hadn't changed positions since I fell asleep.
"Go to bed! And why the hell aren't you freezing?"
"I have a good temperature endurance, plus I was moving the who time and the fire was going," she said as she slid into the sleeping bag.
I woke her up after four hours of halfway dozing off…how did she do it?
Her eyes flashed open and her hand made its way around my throat before she looked me in the eye, "you really need a better way to wake me up without shaking me."
"You don't say!" I said.
Cleaning up our small campsite Aya smothered the fire and we picked up are now much lighter bags and started walking.
"Stop!" I halted as Aya surveyed the area.
"Don't you know it isn't right to spy on people?" Aya called out looking at the top of one tree, "and tell that apprentice of yours he needs to work on his blending skills."
'Huh?' Suddenly a flash of white filled my vision before I saw who was in front of me.
'J…Jiraya…' I thought and turned to see Naruto jump down from a tree…right beside me.
"What are you talking about blending skills?" Naruto's voice was much, much smoother that the voice actor playing him ever pulled off and…we he wasn't bad looking.
"You stick out like a sore thumb," Aya said simply, "your chakra level is high but hardly concealed and your breathing was too rough to come from anything other than a human. Next time coil your chakra around you like a blanket, a second skin if you will, do that and not only will it be harder to detect you can also run chakra currents along your skin," Aya said simply as she help out her arm and electric blue waves ran across the skin of her arm, "if you can control you chakra well enough it can be a defense maneuver you won't have to think about, like walking on water."
Suki had taught us that technique half way into our chakra training. I had more control over how to use it but Aya was able to put more power out with it. I also couldn't sense Chakra signatures as well as she could…but she always was able to pick up the little things, in doing so she missed the big picture a lot of the time.
"Wow…Cool!" Naruto said as Jiraya looked on interested.
"Who taught you that? You don't seem to be Ninja."
"Our sensei, and we are but for ourselves, we don't have a village so becoming an official ninja would unintentionally tie us down somewhere and being we haven't been here very long we decided to travel till we found a place we liked," I said.
"But we couldn't just wander so we found our sensei who taught us everything she knew," Aya finished then turned to me, "we just had a twin moment there."
"Yes we did," I said and the first thing that popped into my head was the Weasley twins…Damn Harry Potter books.
"So where are you from then?" Naruto asked and I almost swooned at his voice…the voice actor had it so wrong, although Naruto wasn't someone I'd be into he had a hot voice.
"A place we don't think we will ever get back to. It's called California, and it's extremely different than anything you have here…" Aya said simply and I felt home sickness wash through me.
"Why can't you go back?"
"We don't know how. It's not just traveling from one place to another, as far as we know there is no other way to get back than create what sent us here in the first place and we don't know exactly what all of it was that sent us here…so we are stuck."
"Oh…I am sorry," Naruto said.
"It is fine, we have gotten used to it in the last what…seven months?"
"Something like that," I said.
"Anyway, my name is Aya and this is Jessi, nice to meet you."
"I am Jiraya and this is my apprentice, like you pointed out, Naruto."
"Nice to meet you both, why are you in the wilderness?" I already knew but I wasn't going to tell them that.
"Training so I can get my friend Sasuke to come back home," Naruto seemed sad at the mention of Sasuke.
"Well Naruto, here is a tip from me to you, when you see him again don't hold back, for any reason. He is your friend but you can't go easy on him because of that. Another thing is you seem to rely on your chakra more than necessary. Your chakra is part of you; it won't fail you as long as you believe in yourself. With that being said learn more physical things, dodge better and learn your surroundings like they are a part of you, know them like you know your reflection; once you've managed that you can tell slight differences in things when people use illusions and you can call them out on it." Aya said.
"Another thing is listening to your masters and friends. No one can teach you things better than those close to you. If your friend knows how to do something you don't ask for help, don't be stubborn. Don't be over emotional either, you as well as some people I know," wink, "run purely on their emotions and for some who have good emotional control it works, for others though it can be their down fall. Know how to reign in your feelings while fighting, don't hide them or push them away, just make sure they don't rule you." I said.
"You both seem to know a lot," Jiraya said.
"Yeah, well I am new to this, but Aya's been a fighter her whole life, she knows quite a bit on how the mind works and it rubbed off on me."
"Yeah, yeah Miss. Therapist," Aya said and I laughed.
"Sure Miss. Female Dr. Phil," I laughed as she glared at me.
"Anyway, basically Naruto, trust yourself and those you know well, yet at the same time don't get to responsive. When an enemy sees you reacting to seeing a friend hurt, they will only hurt your friend more to rile you up. That doesn't mean don't care, just don't go jumping in irrationally."
"Aya…how'd we get into this conversation?" I asked as she finished.
"I don't know…it's us who cares?"
I just rolled my eyes before looking at Naruto, "and most of all don't try and skip over important skills your sensei will try and teach you, some you won't be able to pick up on, but others will be as easy as breathing." I said to him to see him nod.
"How do you both know so much about me?"
"Word goes around," I covered quickly, "in some of the villages we passed some people were talking about Konoha and they mentioned a Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, and Kakashi. We assumed that was your group?"
He nodded and I spoke again, "we heard about the major workings of Konoha and the places around it. Though it is not much we have heard a bit of your story, as well as yours Jiraya."
Suddenly I realized it was starting to get dark I turned to Aya who was staring at the sky.
"Well…Today passed fast."
"You don't say," I cocked my head to the side and I put a fake bewildered look on my face.
She pushed my head back up right with one finger and just looked at me, "Dork."
"You have to be one to know one."
"Never said I wasn't a dork now did I?" she said.
"Well boys we better get going, it's getting dark, maybe we'll meet again?" I said and Naruto smiled happily while Jiraya just nodded his head and we went separate ways.
As soon as I thought they were out of sight I started to scream and smiled at the same time.
"Go scream in the corner you have fifteen seconds."
I moved over there and started screaming incoherent words…and I was the one screaming them…sad.
Finally I was finished and I walked back to her.
"Better now?" she asked her voice holding a teasing quality.
"Yes…Naruto's voice actor put him to shame," I said.
"Yep, as did the artist…if he's good looking I wonder what the good looking guys look like." Aya said her tone light as if thinking back to all the characters she knew deciphering which were cute and/or hot.
I smirked and nodded Oh my god…Sasori…
