Chapter 2
~Authors' Note~
Chapter 2! CHAPTER 2! I didn't think I'd continue this story but I well just did continue it! You may notice that it says Authors' note instead of Author's note. A small difference but to me I guess it's kinda sorta important since it means I've got another author helping me. And that author is... Chiasa! She finally decided to reveal herself. Chiasa here is one of my closest friends and she actually came up with the entire storyline! Now why Chiasa wasn't mentioned, she's very nervous about her work but slowly her confidence has built up and now well... well yea to the story.
~Story Time with Mitsuko Yukimura~
I blinked twice, as an older female known as my sister Kaede, continuously poked me in the shoulder. She sat at the edge of my bed, continuously calling out for me to get up and go to school. "Wake up Mitsu... come on... you need to get up... school's important you know, and I'll be the one getting scolded if your attendance record goes down... again." Kaede shoved me ever so slightly and in response I mumbled a few curses and snuggled my head further into the soft pillow as my eyes slowly closed, once again going to sleep. "Mitsuko! Don't swear!" She hit me upside the head but once again I only groaned and drifted back to my favourite place, dream-ville. Kaede sighed and continued her futile attempts to wake me up, "Mitsu, come on you gotta wake up. You just gotta."
"... Unh... Why?" I muttered.
Suddenly it was so serene and comfortable, had Kaede finally given up? I sighed happily at the thought. Unfortunately I realized that I had made a big mistake and let my guard down. The peace in Mitsuko-land was soon demolished as a sharp pain shot through my shoulder, I recognized the technique. Naruto had received a blow from Kakashi-sensei a few years ago. Our teacher had used the horrid technique on the poor blond. It was an altered version of the One Thousand Years Of Pain, instead of sending an excruciating amount of pain to the behind it was targeted at the weak defenses known as my shoulders.
My brain sensed danger, it sent a wave of adrenaline to my body. I clutched my comforter as I leapt out of bed and ran out the bedroom. Some how the effects of just waking up didn't do much. Clumsily running through the hall until I had reached the front door and flung it wide open. I was expecting a sudden burst of sunlight, but something had covered my eyes, it was clothing...? Another recognizable thing was that doggy scent, it had to be that Inuzuka.
For the second time this morning, I felt my shoulders poked extremely hardly. I groaned, "Inuzuka... I just woke up, don't p-" I paused, it seemed pretty early and Dog Boy is never on time for out meet up before school, not to mention early. "What are you doing here?" I asked.
My voice must've been just about emotionless with a hint of annoyance, for Kiba pulled a fake hurt face, "That's a nice way to greet your friends." I apologised and greeted him properly, with a smile and a 'How are you?' Kiba smirked, "I'm fine and guess what? The recon mission is a-go."
I smiled evilly, "So when do we start?" I crossed my fingers and toes, hoping with all my heart that it was soon. I can't believe dog boy has already started on Project Raven, also known as... Prank Sasuke! So original... *sarcasm*. It's going to be so difficult. On our team, Team Konoha Four, we have Tenten, Naruto, Kiba and I. Just us four against Sasuke Uchiha and all his fan-girls! There's n-
Kiba then interrupted my thoughts, "I'll tell you when we start after you get changed into... something more appropriate, preferably your school uniform..." He gestured to my pajama's. I nodded calmly and strolled in, lucky I didn't have embarrassing wear for bed.

Step One: The Yukimura Connections
Team Konoha Four were going over Project Raven again, tomorrow was the big day when they started putting the plan into action. Instead of going over the plan in the middle of the night, it was just after school had finished and we were sitting on a bench in the park that was close to our school. "Wait, so what's your relationship with Sasuke?" questioned Tenten. You have no idea how weird that sounds, Tenten. Just no.
"Not my relationship, and not Sasuke's!" I shook my head in frustration.
"Hmm... Then what exactly ~is~ it?" Tenten grinned evilly
"Don't speak in that sly voice!"
"What voice?~"
"That one!"
"Which-"
"Shut up!" Naruto clamped his hand down on our mouths. He sighed, "Back to the plan..."
"..."
After a few awkward moments the blond spoke up once again. "Uhh... Mitsuko please answer Tenten's question..."
I smiled awkwardly. "Oh, err... Well basically my older sister Kaede, knows his older brother, Itachi from way back." My smile went from awkward to natural and cheeky, "Ah, I ship them so much..."
Kiba smirked, "Yea skipping your ships, they're dangerous." I glared at him, 'What was wrong with my ships?! And how can they be dangerous?!' He payed no attention to my expression as he pointed to the notebook we had recorded Project Raven in. "Back to the plan, so Mitsuko you, Kaede and Naruto are going to visit the Uchiha mansion a few hours before school and-"
"I'll say to Itachi that we wanted to check on Sasuke since he's been acting strange lately," Naruto interrupted. "Not that he ever acts normal..." the blonde added with an almost silent voice.
I nodded in agreement, "And since my sister is friends with Itachi I'll say to Kaede that she should catch up with him while we check on Sasuke. That'll leave me and Naruto to find some dirt on Sasuke."
"And if we don't find anything, we'll resort to Inuzuka's plan B, but we should avoid it since dog boy here doesn't want it to get out," Tenten nudged Kiba in the shoulder. We all turned to Inuzuka our heads tilted to the side, showing our confusion. Everyone was wondering thing, what was plan B?
Kiba shook his head, "It doesn't matter and anyway it's time we all got home." He stood up and began exiting the park. I followed after him, you know since we walked to and from school together, and the park wasn't that different.
"Yo dog boy!" I yelled, "What was that about?" He shrugged my question off and continued walking. If Kiba wouldn't tell me I'd have to move onto something that I was still so very curious about. What was the back up for Project Raven? I stood on my tippy toes and whispered, "Just between you and me, what is your plan B?" Inuzuka shook his head and continued walking ahead. I ran after him, "Come on, Inuzuka! Inuzuka-kun! You can tell me can't you? Don't you trust me?!"
"No I don't," Kiba had said it with annoyance but I could see a small smile appearing afterwards. 'And they call me weird. What kind of guy likes someone pestering them? Well I guess it's all the more reason to continue!'
"Inuzuka! Inuzuka!"
"Come on... stop it Mitsu."
"I-NU-ZU-KA! I-NU-ZU-KA!"
"Ugh..."
I still kept on bugging him until it was time to go our separate ways. "Remember to walk up early again kay," I shouted. I response he nodded... well, nodded extremely reluctantly. Actually I don't think you could call it a nod, it was more like a... well anyway I can't blame him really, I'm not a morning person either. And with that I waved and said my clichéd catchphrase, "See you Kiba!"
~Authors' Note~
Naoko: Hello! Chiasa will now join us for the Authors' note!
Chiasa: I would really like to say sorry.
Naoko: Oh yeah...
Chiasa: ...
Naoko: Well, go on...
Chiasa: The process of creating stories is Naoko writes it then I edit it. After that there is no changing stuff.
Naoko: Yep.
Chiasa: In the first chapter I added in a part that made it seem like Kiba and Mitsuko didn't like the fact that Sasuke and Naruto could date, and when Naoko read it over after I had published it she pointed that out. Naoko and I aren't homophobes but our families are. We don't really care but since we've been brought up like that it happens.
Naoko: Mhm, so yea. Ah now the situation is so awkward. THIS IS WHY I HATE APOLOGISING!
Chiasa: I concur.
Naoko: Well goodbye reader.
Chiasa: See you!
