Mangestu- 13
Haku- 8
"Well Sakura, here is your new home" Mangestu said,
Sakura gasped at the sight of the village she would now live in; The air was cool but lightly humid, the architecture of the village looked like small mountains with trees of green, and the smoky mist made it look like the village was in the clouds,
"Wow.." was the only thing Sakura could say at the breathtaking sight ,
"Amazing, am I right?" Mangestu said with a grin as Sakura nodded,
"We can show Sakura the village later, let's go to the Mizukage's office and check her in so she can rest" Ao said as the 3 traveled through the gates and to the Mizukage's office.
"Lady Mizukage, here is the transfer from Konoha, Sakura Haruno" Ao introduced,
"I see, hello Sakura I am the 5th Mizukage Mei Terumi, and welcome to Kirigakure, so how's your first impression?" The 5th Mizukage asked with a gentle smile,
"Oh! I love the village already! It's so beautiful!" Sakura said cheerfully,
"All right let's get you checked into the system so you can be a citizen and attend the academy, then Mangestu will take you to your new home" the Mizukage said sweetly,
"Ok Mizukage-sama!" Sakura said.
"Ao, give me her profile"
"Right away my lady!".
"So how does the village look to you Sakura?" Mangestu asked
"I really love it!" Sakura said with a smile,
"I need to go get my little brother from my place for help, he's a year older than you" Mangestu said as Sakura nodded.
After a few minutes of talking the two reached the Hozuki manor, and Mangestu told Sakura to stay outside,
Sakura twirled around the street on a leaf, the area wasn't too busy with people since it on a street where a clan manor resided,
Sakura twirled on another leaf as she giggled and traveled backwards, and about to fall back she fell pressure on he back and when she got back her balance she looked behind her to see a black haired girl, no boy!,
'They look like a girl but their clothes look like it's for a boy, I don't know which one they are!'
"I- um thank you uh.." Sakura mumbled as she blushed out of embarrassment,
"Haku, my name is Haku" the boy answered with a gentle smile,
'Oh, so it is a boy'
"I haven't seen you here, are you new or something?" Haku asked tilting his head,
"Um yes, I am new, my name is Sakura" Sakura said
"It's nice to meet you Sakura, oh! I have to get back! I'll see you around Sakura" Haku said running off, just in time for Mangestu to come out with his brother.
"Sakura, this is my brother Suigestu" Mangestu said introducing his brother, who was basically a copy of Mangestu; Same hair color, eye color, same sharp looking teeth, the only difference was Mangestu wore a headband around his forehead,
"Hey Sakura, so you like Kirigakure so far? How long have you be-" Suigestu was cut off his brother who punched him,
"Idiot she just got here!" Mangestu explained
"Well excuse me! I didn't know!" Suigestu yelled
"Hey guys no fighting!" Sakura said
"Oh no, don't worry we were just messing around Sakura" Mangestu said as he rubbed the back of his head,
"Ok, so where are we going?" Sakura asked
"Well to your apartment of course, let's go!" Mangestu asked and he dragged Sakura and his brother by their hand to the apartment.
"Well this is it" Mangestu said pulling out the key from his pouch and unlocking the door,
inside the walls were a light aquamarine color, there was already a couch, a tv, and the kitchen already had a table to fit 4 people, and in the bedroom the bed was already made with extra sheets and blankets in her closet which was almost 2 times the size in Konoha, a single bathroom and also a storage cabinet was also included,
"So let's take out your belongings and leave them here, it's only about 7:30pm, we can go look around and go shopping, unless your tired" Mangestu said
"No I'm not tired, and here is the scroll" Sakura said as she then took out the sealing scroll and handed it Mangestu,
Mangestu did 1 sign and Sakura's belonging appeared in a puff of smoke.
"This is it? It's not that much" Suigestu said as he took the two duffle bags and Mangestu with the suitcase leaving Sakura with only her bag,
"Well my parents died when I was 5, the Hokage moved me to a new place and it was small and the furniture came with the place" Sakura explained
"Oh I see" Suigestu said as he put down the bags,
"So, who wants dinner?" Mangestu said as the 3 walked out the bedroom,
"Me!" Suigestu said jumping with joy
"Sakura?" Mangestu asked after rolling his eyes at his younger brother's childish actions,
"I could use some, the person escorting me only got me dango and tea" Sakura said
"Seems like the leaf doesn't takes care of you too well" Suigestu said
"Suigestu.." Mangestu growled
"Oh it's ok Mangestu-san" Sakura said before any conflict were to happen between the brothers,
"Hey no '-san', you call me 'nii-san' ok?, plus I've always wanted a little sister, it's a lot better than this twirp" Mangestu said pointing at Suigestu who glared at the elder Hozuki brother,
"Hey! What about me?!" Suigestu yelled as his eye twitched
"Hahaha I'm just kidding! I love you both!" Mangestu said ruffling his brother and Sakura's hair,
"Ok, let's go out to eat!" Mangestu said as Sakura grabbed onto Mangestu's hand, Mangestu looked down at Sakura to see her smiling, the elder Hozuki lightly tightened his grip on Sakura's hand,
He was happy to have a little sister.
"So there is a lot of options we could go to eat some sushi, also if you want to try some Kirigakure food, or even a ramen stand" Mangestu explained
Ramen. That food reminded Sakura of Naruto, it reminded her of Konoha, she really wanted to get her mind off of thinking about her missed friends,
"I think I'll try some food from Kirigakure" Sakura decided as Suigestu's eyes brightened up,
"Oh I know the perfect place for that! Their frozen yogurt is so good " Suigestu cheered as he ran towards the restaurant, and frankly looking energized enough to run laps around the village,
"We better catch up, let's go!" Mangestu said as he grabbed Sakura's hand and ran to the restaurant hi little brother stood next to.
"Ok, are you ready to order?" the waitress asked as she took out her writing pad and pen from her apron,
"I'll have sautéed cuttlefish with vegetables and my brother who will be back in a moment will have breaded shrimp with yogurt dip, and you Sakura?"
"I'll have...hmmm..miso souba" Sakura said
"Ok, anything else?" the waitress asked
"Oh, bring out a, oh!, Sakura do you want to try some frozen yogurt?" Mangestu asked
"No, I think this will be enough" Sakura replied
"Ok, bring one frozen yogurt after the meal" Mangestu said
"Alright sir, I'll bring out your meals when they are ready" the waitress said as she then walked into the kitchen,
"Hey guys! So Mangestu what did you order me?" Suigestu asked coming over to the table and sitting down,
"The usual for you"
"Yes!".
"I love this stuff!" Suigestu cheered as he took a bite on his food,
"Really?, because I didn't notice you order the exact meal every time we come here" Mangestu said sarcastically, he then turned his attention to the cherry blossom sitting across from him,
"Anyways, do you like your food Sakura?"
"Oh yes!, it's very tasty" Sakura said then taking the noodles into her mouth, Mangestu grinned as he took another bite of his cuttlefish.
"Well I am stuffed!" Suigestu commented
"yeah I liked the food" Sakura said
"Well it's 8:41pm, do you want to go shop Sakura?" Mangestu asked
"Sure!" Sakura said,
"Alright, let's go".
"Ok, since the Mizukage gave me money for Sakura, we can go get some things for her" Mangestu said pulling out a small pouch of money,
"Let's first go get some food first!" Mangestu said as the other 2 followed his lead.
"Ok, do you think we have everything?" Mangestu asked
"Um, I think so" Sakura said
"Ok, Suigestu stay with her while I go pay for this" Mangestu ordered as Suigestu nodded and gave a toothy grin.
"So Sakura, you think you are going to the academy tomorrow?" Suigestu asked in curiosity,
"I don't know actually, probably though" Sakura answered
"I really want you to come, and I hope we get the same class" Suigestu said
"Yeah me too, you know in Konoha I was sometimes afraid to go to the academy" Sakura said timidly laughing,
"Why? Were the teachers mean or something?"
"Oh, I was bullied a lot, they threw stones at me and made fun of my forehead" Sakura answered
"Tch! I would have beat them into a pulp! Plus, your very cute" Suigestu said giving a rare genuine smile,
"Uh! Um thanks Suigestu" Sakura said as she lightly blushed
"Hey, anyone gives you trouble at the academy, you come get me, ok?" Suigestu said
"Right" Sakura said smiling,
"Ok, let's go look for some other things, we are done in the food department" Mangestu said as he walked over with a couple bags of food,
"Ok!" the two children cheered.
"Ok, we have got everything, now all we need is academy supplies, that storage space in your apartment is used to keep ninja supplies" Mangestu said
"Really? In Konoha we just keep our supplies all in our pouches" Sakura said
"Well welcome to Kirigakure cherry blossom" Suigestu said grinning,
"Anyways let's grab the supplies and head to Sakura's place, it's getting late" Mangestu said
"Ok, first we should get kunai and shuriken!" Suigestu cheered as he dragged Sakura with him, Mangestu then sighed and walked to wherever his little brother dragged Sakura off to.
"I think I like this one" Sakura said as she pointed at a kunai with sharp edges along the side of the blade,
"This one too Sakura, we also need standard" Suigestu said lifting up a kunai and twirling it around his finger,
"You really run fast Suigestu, try going slower next time" Mangestu said as he then went up to the counter
"I will get 60 each for these 2 designs and also 3 packs of senbon" Mangestu said to the blacksmith, the blacksmith nodded and gave the elder Hozuki brother what he needed, Mangestu paid with the money for Sakura given by the Mizukage,
"Ok, let's go get the books for class" Mangestu said
"And he is the boring part of this shopping trip" Suigestu commented as the three walked over to that section.
"It seems you Sakura, had a 5 on written tests, so studying I think won't be a problem" Mangestu read aloud as he scanned through her data, Suigestu's jaw dropped
"What~?! I have a 3.5 and your a year younger than me!" he yelled,
"Then learn something from Sakura, dummy" Mangestu said with a smirk,
"I hate you.." Suigestu growled
"Love you too little brother" Mangestu replied which only made Suigestu more angry,
"Hey now, let's just get the books and go home" Sakura said, trying to calm down the two yet again,
"Fine" Suigestu gritted out through his sharp teeth.
"Ok, Sakura let's prepare your academy supplies then get to bed, the academy starts 8:45am, I'll then bring over your bag Suigestu, so you can stay over and show Sakura to the academy in the morning, Is that ok if Suigestu stays over Sakura?" Mangestu said
"Of course!" Sakura said then yawned,
"Ok, let's get this done" she then said as she along with the Hozuki brothers.
"I'm dead beat" Sakura said as she collapsed on her bed, already in her pajamas,
"You go ahead and try to sleep Sakura, I am going to get Suigestu's bag" Mangestu said walking to the door and out of the apartment,
Suigestu then walked over to Sakura and hovered over her, he then climbed to the other side of her bed to open the curtains to her small window,
"Hey Sakura, come see this" Suigestu said quietly (for once in his life :P)
"Hmmm?" Sakura mused as she looked out the window and saw the view, some lanterns down the road were being set up along with some stands being built,
"What's going on?" Sakura asked
"Well your just in time for Kirigakure's summer festival which is 3 days next week, we are off the academy on those 3 days too!" Suigestu explained
"Well I'm glad I came in time" Sakura said as she laid back down and yawned,
Suigestu was about to get off the bed but Sakura grabbed onto his shirt,
"No...stay.." Sakura mumbled loud enough for Sakura to hear,
"Um ok" Suigetsu said as he laid back down and fell asleep too.
Mangestu unlocked the door and walked into to see his brother was not on the couch, Mangestu only hoped he was not keeping Sakura up, the Mizukage gave the responsibility of being her guardian so he was responsible for anything bad happening to her,
Mangestu walked into Sakura's bedroom to see Sakura and Suigestu sleeping next to eachother, Suigestu actually unconsciously hugging the pink haired girl sleeping next to him, the sight was just adorable,
Mangestu then took out a camera and took a picture...
