Ok, this chapter is from my own characters pov. otherwise i do not own Naruto.
The rain was still falling as Mazi tried to find somewhere dry. She used the rooftops to better survey where she was. All she needed was a dry warm place until the rain stopped. She heard a soft meowing and looked down at her green sweater which was zipped up all the way. She was soaked through and so was her cat Hedeki, who was hiding in her sweater to stay a little drier. She knew she had been spotted by someone, but she hoped they wouldn't bother her. Plus she wasn't on that side of town anymore.
"Hold on Hedeki, I'm looking." She knew that Hedeki wouldn't talk to her after this. It was her fault they had entered the village after dark. She just didn't know it was going to rain. He meowed again. "Oh don't you start! I am looking." Just then she saw a light on in one of the apartments below where she was. She almost hit the spot where her cat is but then Hedeki would put his claws in her, and she just wrapped her support wraps today. Not like she wasn't going to have to rewrap them or anything, she rolled her eyes at the thought. She liked wearing the wrap, but it was bothersome sometimes to wrap it herself. She jumped down onto the railing in front of the door and then slid off the railing to a crouching position. She let Hedeki down and the cat got as close to the wall as he could. She went to the door and knocked fixing her jacket, it was heavy because of the rain. The door opened slowly and a blonde haired blue eyed boy stared at her.
"Hello? Who are you?" He asked, Hedeki ran into the room, the blonde didn't notice.
"I'm Mazi. I'm sorry to bother you at such a late hour but I was caught out in the rain, and it's a bad storm. I'm a long way from home and it's late, nowhere else is open so I can't stay in an inn if I wanted. All I need is a place to stay for the night and I can leave as soon as its morning." She said slowly, she could tell he was falling asleep and only half paying attention. He just stared at her another minute and then decided on it. He nodded and moved so she could get in. He shut the door behind them and locked it.
"I'm Naruto. Why were you caught out in the rain so late?" He must not have realized her cat was in front of him cleaning himself because he stepped on Hedeki. The cat yowled and attacked Naruto. The boy was so caught off guard that he fell down and started screaming. She pulled the cat off him and made sure his claws were shut.
"Naruto! Are you alright?" He nodded his eyes still wide with shock. "I'm sorry, he's very temperamental." She got a look from the cat for that. "What? You are." She said to him. He jumped down and ran off somewhere. "We came to the Hidden Leaf Village looking for a new start, a new life. We just happened to get here when it starts raining." She sighed and looked down at herself. She took her sweater off and laid it on a nearby chair. Good, my wraps are still fine for now. She had her wraps on under a black tank top, baggy tan pants and green shoes. "Dang, now my socks will be green… not again…" She sits on the floor and looks around. It's so messy, ramen bowls strewn everywhere, as well as cups and clothes. She shook her head before looking at him again. She could tell orange was his favorite color.
"Why did you come for a new start?" He was curious and sat in front of her. She shrugged and thought about that. She wasn't going to start anything in this new place, she couldn't, they wouldn't accept her if she told them. Being the kid of an S class villain and on the run from four villages wasn't a very good thing.
"I just needed something different than what I had. I'm not kidding; you would have left it too, by the looks of ya. No offense or anything" She smiled when he laughed at that. He looked up at the clock behind him and jumped up.
"Damn! I so didn't think it was this late! Uh, uh…." He turned and looked at her, a bit calmed down again. "You need dry clothes…" He ran into the other room before she could say anything. She sighed and got up. I guess he's right. I don't think he wants his furniture to be all wet. He came back again a minute later with some clothes and a towel. He handed them to her and showed her where the bathroom was. "Sorry I can't stay up and chat, I have somewhere to be in the morning. You're welcome to join me if you want." I nod and stand in the door way of the bathroom.
"I'll think about it." Just then Hedeki, holding a grudge on both of them at the moment ran up Naruto's back, making him lurch forward. They were both surprised by this because in the after effect of Hedeki's 'attack' they kissed. Hedeki ran off again thinking he hurt him enough, he'd get that boy when he sleeps.
