Sakura had just walked in through the door as Akira agreed to go back to Konoha and become apart of their team. Sakura gaped at them for a few moments before walking forward "U-uh…Sensei…do you really think that is wise? She tried to kill us for gods sake!" She said in a frustrated tone. Akira sighed and frowned before grabbing her crutch and slowly rising to her feet "Ah, Miss. I'd like to inform you that I have no intent to kill you, I did what I was told to do." she said simply with a casual wave of her hand. At a leisurely pace she wobbled over to the wide window in the room and sat down on the chair that sat next to it.
Kakashi sighed and gave Sakura a lazy nod of the head and went back to reading his book as he was going towards the climax of the story. Pun intended. Sakura sighed and gave a wary glance to Akira before walking out again to go find Sasuke and Naruto. She searched around the inside of the house before heading outside and looked around. She walked to the back of the house and saw them sitting on a pier a little ways away. They seemed tired but generally relaxed all the same. Sasuke had his legs hanging off the edge while he leaned back and watched the sky, Naruto was gently kicking his feet in through the water causing small ripples to form in their wake.
Sakura walked up and sighed before setting in between the two of them, Naruto looked over at her and Sasuke lazily opened an eye and made a noise of acknowledgement. Naruto smiled "Hey Sakura, what's up?" he asked casually whilst he moved some of his hair out of his face, his eye's filled with happiness and content. She sighed and moved until she was leaning her back on Naruto's arm and her feet were thrown over Sasukes' middle. Sasuke made a grunt noise and grabbed Sakura's legs and put them in a more comfortable position for himself. He didn't mind her laying on him as long as they were with alone. They all were friends, basically family and didn't mind if they laid up on each other.
"That girl, Akira, is going to come with us and become a part of our team…I don't mind but I'm still skeptical… also the teams would be odd numbered." Sakura replied to Naruto's question with another sighed and closed her eyes. He hummed in thought "She seemed to be pretty strong didn't she? I think she'd be an amazing teammate and probably a good friend too. I don't mind at all," he chuckled out and glanced over at Sasuke who had opened his eye again to glance at them "aren't I right, eh' Sasuke?"
Sasuke hummed "She seemed…off to me, but no I wouldn't mind. The stronger the teammates stronger the team…She seems like a lazy ass like Shikamaru though." he said while sitting up and hunching forward. Sakura nodded with a sigh and moved so that she was sitting cross-legged and set her arms in her lap. "Let's giver her a chance Sakura! She seems to be older than us, but that means she'd be able to look out for us more the better." Naruto said offhandedly and Sasuke grunted in agreement which caused Sakura to nod her head "Alright, I trust you guys." she said and Naruto smiled at her while Sasuke playfully rolled his eyes.
Akira looked at everything that was outside the window she was seated at, the sun was still low in the sky which caused the normal blue to be polluted with pink and purple. Clouds littered the sky as birds flew throughout the air, a gentle breeze flew by and ruffled her hair slightly before dispersing as another took it's place. Dew was still on the ground in some places such as shaded grass and spider webs. It was a beautiful morning Akira had to admit and it reminded her of home. She was so close to it but she deserted that place many years ago, she wouldn't be able to ever go back. Kakashi who had been reading in the background for the last couple of minutes closed his book softly and glanced up to the blue haired girl with the odd eye's, He didn't tell her but she had been out nearly for a week. The shinobi, while she slept, did research on her and decided it would be best for her to be apart of his team. She was an odd one with not a lot of information he could access, he doubted she knew the information herself. She had a demon sealed inside her, or more respectfully the Yang.
This occurrence was rare and peeked his interest tremendously, the act of sealing one part of a demon inside someone or something was usually conducted if there are siblings as their bond is strong enough to withstand the separate parts. What was frightening was that the goodness of that demons soul was sealed into this young girl, who seemed to inherit a kindness and tenderness that the white haired ninja hadn't seen in a long time. The one thing that truly worried him was the thought of the person who the Yin was sealed into, but when he had checked her information on relatives were S-class secrets. Kakashi looked up at the young girl again and really studied her properly for the first time.
Her hair was hard to distinguish what the natural color was, but it was all naturally there in a undercut like style. Her eye's were a hot pink with specks of green within them, he could only assume her right eye was the same as he hadn't seen it open but a glimpse once. She had two scars on her right eye, a long and wide one that seemed to branch off right below her eye and stop at her earlobe along with a smaller scare next to it. She seemed to have a natural tan to her skin whilst also being pale and has small sunspots littering her skin everywhere. Her posture was lazy and relaxed giving her a contented look about her, her body was well developed for her age with having curves in all the right places. He narrowed his eye's in confusion when he saw the loose bandages on her arm but decided not to ask her about it.
He stood up silently and walked over to sit on the windows edge, Akira looked up and seemed to silently regard him. "Akira, I did my research while you were asleep. I know you will be a good teammate, especially a good role model for Naruto and the rest of the team." Kakashi said quietly. Akira blinked and when she looked up at Kakashi with a slightly bewildered look he had to resist the gasp that nearly escaped his lips. The surprise must have been evident on his face because she self consciously covered her right eye and Kakashi quickly replaced her hand with his so he could look better. The reports and files said nothing about this.
She was blind in her right eye.
He thought the scars would only be on the lid like his, but he was mistaken, The scars continued into her eyeball making horrifying slashes within the eye. The pupil was split in pieces and the edges of the scars were a milky pink before fading into the vibrant pink like the other eye. Kakashi gave her a sympathetic look as he studied her eye and Akira made a slightly uncomfortable noise "An accident happened…it was long ago, I barely remember," she started and Kakashi could tell that was a lie but didn't say anything
"but…Do you really think I'll make a good teammate and role model? Will they even trust me after what I tried to do?" She asked softly and her tone snapped him out of his daze. He moved his hand to cup her cheek and his eye's crinkled around the edges indicating a smile. "Of course. They are extremely kind kids, knowing you only did what you had too. You'll all get along great don't worry yourself Akira, you'll be safe with us." Akira smiled at his words before patting his hand before he removed it. He ruffled her hair softly before turning to look out the window as well.
Akira sat in the living room with the rest of team 7, the adults all went to bed along with Inari so it was just them. Akira was silently reading a book until Naruto groaned and snatched the book from her grasped. She looked up at him calmly as he put a page marker in it and set it down. He looked at her and pointed "Alright, let's get to know each other better! I'm Naruto Uzumaki, Believe it!" he said excitedly but quiet enough that the adults won't hear. Sasuke and Sakura sighed at his antics but Akira merely smiled warmly "Akira Ikeda…Believe it!" she said playfully pointing at Naruto and he chuckled before smiling brighter.
" I Like you already! You seem cooler than I thought." Naruto voiced out which caused her to shake her head slightly. Sakura sighed and looked at Akira "I'm Sakura Haruno, a pleasure to meet you Akira." Akira nodded and looked at Sasuke. He grunted "Sasuke Uchiha." He said simply and maybe a little grumpily. She nodded at him and yawned.
She looked at the clock on the wall "I think it's time that we go to sleep. It's late, and you won't be a good shinobi if you aren't fully rested and in perfect condition." she said and watched as they all agreed after a few moments and stood up. "Goodnight Akira-san." Said Sakura as she passed by and Akira stared at her in disbelief for a few seconds. No one had ever used honorifics on her, and she just didn't like it. She'll correct her in the morning "Yeah, Goodnight Akira! See you tomorrow." Said Naruto as he bounded up the stairs to his room. She had momentarily forgotten about Sasuke until he bumped into her and said lowly "Goodnight, see you in the morning.". She smiled and hummed out her own goodnight before wobbling over to her room.
She changed into some pajama's she was given and lied down on the bed. She curled up on her side, the blanket just under her chin. She sighed and fell asleep looking at the full moon.
