OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
"What do you mean there's trouble Kyree?" Kumiko asked as she motioned for Kakashi to help her stand on the floor. Kyree took a few deep breaths before continuing. Again it was amazing that she had been able to run.
"Your aunt is here….along with….along with….ALONG WITH HIM!" she yelled the last part to emphasize it. Kumiko looked at her in a confused daze. Her aunt was here with who?
"Who's him?" she asked her tired friend. Sasuke and Sakura came running into the room. The three looked at the two genin.
"We're so sorry sensei. She was talking to us and then all of the sudden she looked out the window, screamed, and then took off running. We were after her as soon as she started but she can run extremely fast, even with that wound." Sakura said as she tried to help support Kyree, but the girl just pushed her away. Unfortunately she lost her balance on her bad foot and fell back into the arms of Sasuke, who wouldn't let her go. She eventually gave up and let him help her. Sakura's face turned red.
Kumiko looked back at Kyree, trying to remember what their conversation was about before the other two teenagers appeared, and she did. "Kyree, who's him?" The slightly annoyed because she's in the arms of some strange guy, girl looked at her friend.
seems like just yesterday
"Hakaru…" she growled, and Kumiko's eyes grew wide. Kakashi had just been standing there for the past five minutes, but at this comment he felt the girl beside him cling to his vest even harder. Apparently she wasn't very fond of this Hakaru guy. He instinctively put an arm around her waist, as if in protection. No one took any notice of this except Sasuke and Kyree who looked at each other with eyebrows raised.
"Well what do we do?" Kumiko asked. Sakura looked at her while shooting Sasuke and Kyree glares once and awhile. Kyree thought about it, but before she had time to answer she heard her aunt's voice from outside her door.
"Yes we're looking for my niece and her friend. They're both about five foot eight and have brown hair and brown eyes." Kumiko looked at Kyree and they both knew they had to get out of there. There was one window in their room wide enough to jump out of but the problem was that they were five stories up. Kyree looked at Sasuke for any sign of hope.
"Is there anyway we can sneak out?" Kumiko asked Kakashi, who was still trying to figure out why this girl didn't want to be seen by her aunt. Sasuke looked toward his sensei before picking up Kyree and holding her in his arms, much to her displeasure.
"Hey what the heck? Put me down this instant!" she said squirming but he just forced her to stay still while he put his hand over her mouth.
"Shut up already! Can't you see I'm trying to protect you from something I can't understand." He muttered. Kyree stopped grumbling but kept moving once and awhile. He accepted that while they both were still receiving jealous looks from Sakura. Sasuke walked toward the open window and began to crawl out of it. Kyree's eyes grew wide as she saw the ground appear five stories below her. Sasuke turned toward Kakashi and Sakura.
"Are you two coming?" he asked and before he got an answer Kakashi had Kumiko in his arms and was right beside the raven haired boy. All at once Kakashi jumped out the window with Kumiko clinging to him. Sakura went next but Sasuke was having issues with Kyree. Apparently she didn't like heights for she was now trying to climb back into the window.
"Can I have a little help up here?" he called down to Kakashi. Kyree was trying her best to get away from the fourteen year old but she didn't stand a chance when he just jumped out the window, dragging her down with him. She thought they would die for sure but in a second all she felt below her was solid ground. Her bad leg didn't even hurt. She opened her eyes and saw that they were on the street below the hospital, and then she saw that the boy, Sasuke, was smirking at her.
"Scaredy cat…" he said with a grin. She gave him a glare before turning to leave, only run into the back of Kakashi, who had stopped. She rubbed her nose and looked around to see what the hold up was. Kumiko was silent.
"Well hello there Kumiko." Came the sly voice of Hakaru. Kumiko just stood there, and an idiot could see she was having a mental breakdown. Kyree stood glaring at the tall teen in front of them. He seemed to have brought five of his friend's along.
"Well I haven't seen you for awhile Kumiko." He sneered at her, causing her pale face to look at the ground.
you
were a part of me
I used to stand so tall
I used to be so
strong
"What do you want Hakaru. I thought I got rid of you." Kyree hissed at him. He backed up slightly, until he saw the bandages around her leg. The three ninja around them seemed at a lost for what to do. Kyree took a step forward.
"I will ask you again Hakaru…what do you want." She said reaching slightly toward her back belt loop. The boy in front of her gave her a glare with another smirk before answering.
"Well simple really, I want to have Kumiko back." He said with a slight laugh. Before any of them knew it, five more of his friend's pushed Kumiko out of Kakashi's reach and right in front of Hakaru. The silver haired ninja had been to busy watching his front that he was completely taken by surprise when Kumiko was pushed forward.
your
arms around me tight
everything felt so right
unbreakable, like
nothing could go wrong
"Kumiko I am sorry, I made a mistake I shouldn't have broken up with you. You were the best thing to ever happen to me." He purred in her ear while removing a loose stand of hair from her face. She stood there in complete shock.
no
I can't breathe, I can't sleep
I'm barely hangin' on
"You let go of her right now…!" Kyree growled once again. She had already been injured physically and Kyree could only guess how much this was hurting her mentally and emotionally.
"Or what?" he taunted her, putting his arm around Kumiko's waist. That was the last straw for Kyree.
"Or else I'll kill you…" her voice had become very menacing.
"Hmph… I'd like to see you try." He said turning and walking away with Kumiko. She apparently was in so much shock that she couldn't control her body. Kakashi was about to stop him when he saw Kyree fly forward, holding a kunai knife with the distinct markings of the sound village on them. 'Well that solves part of the mystery of who attacked them.' He thought.
Hakaru didn't stand a chance against Kyree and the knife. Before he knew what had happened he felt the knife going through his shoulder. He dropped his arm around Kumiko's waist as he staggered forward. Kyree just stood there, with some of his blood running down her hand. The bleeding boy turned to look at her.
"Kill her…" he mumbled at his friends. Kyree braced herself as ten tough looking boys surrounded her while Kumiko was leaning against a brick wall trying to figure out what to do.
"Bring it on!" she exclaimed as she started to attack the boys with her fists. For a couple of seconds it looked like she might stand a chance as she took down three of the ten guys, but then someone came up with a metal pipe. They knocked it against her head, causing her to fall to the ground. 'No…' Kumiko thought as he raised it again to finish the job.
"Fire style! Fire-ball jutsu!" came Sasuke's voice and before the pipe hit her head, two of the boys were blown back by the force of a huge fire-ball. Kumiko turned to Sasuke as he made hand signs and blew another blast of fire out of his mouth. By now the mob was turning on him instead of Kyree. Sakura joined him and the two began to fight with the group. Kakashi was still standing there but he held a Kunai in case his genin couldn't handle it.
Here
I am
once again
i'm torn into pieces
can't deny it, can't
pretend
just thought you were the one
broken up, deep
inside
but you wont get to see the tears I cry
behind these
hazel eyes
Kumiko ran over to Kyree to see if she was ok and luckily she just had a bump and was starting to get up. She almost was able to give a sigh of relief but then she noticed the shadow of someone standing over them. She looked up to see Hakaru standing over Kyree with the knife in his hand.
"Die wench!" he yelled before he attempted to drive the knife into her head. He never hit his mark though as the knife hit the metal pipe that was used earlier. He looked up to see Kumiko standing there holding it. "Kumiko…" he muttered.
"Screw you…" she said before bashing it against his head. Earlier that would have been enough for her but right now she was filled with fury. She dropped the pipe and ran over to start jabbing her fists into his stomach. He doubled over, giving her the perfect opportunity to kick his head, sending him flying backwards. He staggered again and looked up at her.
"Kumiko…"
"Goodbye." She said simply before making the hand signs she had seen Sasuke make earlier. "Fire style, FIRE-BALL JUTSU!" she screamed before unleashing fire from her mouth. Hakaru was thrown back into a dumpster where he stayed down. Kumiko stood there for a minute before walking back over to Kyree, who was now standing there looking at her with awe.
"Crap…" she muttered as she saw the beaten body of Hakaru. Kumiko looked at her with a smile.
"What?" she said innocently before walking over to Kakshi. "You might want to take them in there." She said motioning to the hospital. Kakashi looked from her, to his students, to the other ten boys Sasuke and Sakura seemed to have demolished as well. 'Remind me never to get on her bad side…' he thought to himself.
"Hatake Kakashi!" came a voice from the roof of the house beside them. The group, including the girls, looked up to see a person wearing all black and mask looking down at them.
"Yes?" Kakashi asked as the ninja jumped down and handed him a small note.
"From the Hokage." He said before disappearing. Kakashi opened the note before eyeing it and folding it back up.
"What did it say sensei?" Sakura asked as Kakashi pocketed the paper. He looked at Kumiko and Kyree.
"He says he wants me to bring you to him, for evaluation." He said. The group grew silent and stayed like that, even as Naruto walked up with flowers.
"Hey guys! What'd I miss?"
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
"You two seem to like creating chaos in my streets." Said the old man with a funny hat from behind his desk. Team seven stood in the back of the room listening as Kumiko and Kyree stood up front.
"Well it wasn't like we had a choice. Hakaru was trying to take her away against her will. In my dictionary I say that's kidnapping." Kyree said sarcastically, still rubbing the bump on her head. Sasuke smirked at her response.
"So you thought that gave you a reason to stab him in the shoulder?" the old man asked.
"Well I could have stabbed him in the heart if that's what you would have liked." Kyree shot back.
"Yes, I suppose you could have." Said the Hokage shaking his head. "What about you, what's your story?" he asked, his eyes turning to Kumiko. She looked away from the floor.
"Sir…he is with my aunt. They are looking for me here, and he seemed to think I would have wanted to go back with him. She said quietly.
"And you do not wish to go back?" he asked her. She shook her head.
"No sir, Kyree and I are looking for a chance to start our own lives, the way we want it. I do not wish to go back to my home." She said confidently.
"Nor do I." Kyree added for extra emphasis. The Hokage looked from one to the other before smiling to himself.
"Then I guess I was right to tell your aunt that you had died after being attacked." He said looking at Kumiko. Her eyes shot up as he continued. "She came by with a paper asking if I'd seen you and of course I had when Kakashi brought me pictures of your wounds that the hospital gave him. I gave her the pictures saying that you had been attacked and you had survived in time to get here, but died later from your wounds. I then told her that you were buried in an unmarked grave on the outskirts of town."
Kyree and Kumiko looked at each other with slightly joyful and slightly shocked expressions. They turned back to the man, both trying to conjure up some words, but failing. Finally, Kumiko managed to squeak out what she was trying to say.
"Well thank you sir, although I feel terrible for my aunt. I don't want her to grieve over me when I'm not dead." She said with a sigh.
"Trust me young lady she didn't seem to upset. She said she was sad but then she went on about how she was going to sell your things and rent your room out." He said shaking his head in disgrace about how much this aunt cared. Kumiko seemed slightly hurt but she regained a calm composure as he handed them two envelopes.
"Those are some items and papers you will need to get started here. There is one holding your address for your new apartment and where you will be starting work tonight. There is also some money and a list of people you can go to for help. Now that you have all that I hope you will enjoy living here."
"Thank you sir…" the two girls said unanimously as they bowed. He smiled at them.
"Very well, now will everyone please leave except Kakashi." He said. They all obeyed as Kumiko and Kyree took there leave to start their new lives as citizens of the hidden leaf village.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
"You wanted to see me sir?" asked Kakashi as he took a seat in a chair that the Hokage had motioned to.
"Yes Kakashi, it's about those two girls."
"I figured as much…" Kakashi said as he sat up straight. The Hokage continued.
"I watched them fight Kakashi. I can see many things. They seem very talented." The old man said. Kakashi nodded his head in agreement.
"Yes, Kyree seemed to excel in hand to hand combat while Kumiko seemed to learn difficult jutsus at an amazing rate." The jounin said calmly, remembering the battle.
"Yes indeed you are correct Kakashi. That is why I would like you to train them in the ways of the ninja." The Hokage said as Kakashi stared at him before nodding his head.
"Alright sir, I promise to train them." He said before turning and walking out the door.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
"Oh yeah! Thanks for brining us out for ramen tonight Kakashi sensei!" Naruto exclaimed as he sat at his favorite ramen bar. They had already ordered and were now waiting for there meals.
"No problem Naruto. I think we all deserve a reward after today." He said with a tired smile.
"Are those two girls ok sensei?" Sakura asked.
"They seemed to be." He said nodding his head. He noticed that Sasuke was doing more sulking than usual. "What's wrong Sasuke?"
"It's just that I don't understand how that one girl learned my jutsu so quickly. It took me forever to get it." He said shaking his head. Kakashi smiled.
"That's nothing to worry about now Sasuke…" he said. Naruto was starting to grow impatient.
"Sensei when is my ramen coming?" he complained, and just as he did a voice appeared over there heads.
"It's right here Naruto…jeesh you're impatient." The four looked up.
"Kumiko!" Naruto said happily as the brunette set a large bowl in front of him.
"Hey what about me?" Kyree asked as she set down two bowls in front of Sasuke and Sakura. She gave a little smile to Sasuke, who smiled back. Kakashi looked at the two.
"So this is where you two are working huh?" he asked and the two girls nodded. They went back into the kitchen as team seven started to eat, only to return a moment later.
"Hey Kakashi, we were told that you had to tell us something." Kyree said. Kakashi ran his brain before he remembered.
"Oh yes, the Hokage would like me to train you in the ways of our village. Fighting and such, and I'm afraid I cannot accept a no. His rules unfortunately." Kakashi said with a smile.
"So you want to train us to fight?" Kumiko asked. Kakashi nodded.
"Like ninja?" Kyree added and he nodded once again. The two girls looked at each other.
"Fine we'll do it, but only if we get those headbands." Kumiko said poiting to Naruto's head. Kakashi laughed before agreeing.
"Not like any training will help you…" Sasuke mumbled under his breath, but Kyree caught it. She moved down so she stood in front of him.
"Just you watch Sasuke, two years from now I'll be beating the crap out of you."
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
