I don't own Karin. By the way if I put (Refer to ISOY) after something it just means that that character or event happened solely in that story.
Blood Drops
Chapter 4 out in the Town
The following day Karin and Chi went into town. Karin felt bad that Chi had to marry her Onii-chan. He is not the nicest guy to get along with, she sighed. Karin just hoped that she, Anju, Mama, and Papa could make Chi feel at home. The first thing Chi asked Karin to do is to get her some outfits so she could fit in more. All Chi has are the latest fashion from her village. They were silent as they walked through the plethora of people bustling around.
"Karin I would like to also get some books," said Chi, "if that's not a problem for you."
"Oh no, of course it is not a problem. My best friend's parents own a book shop," said Karin. They headed to Toki Books to get some books.
"Hey Karin and who are you," asked Maki, the green haired best friend of Karin.
"This is Chi, Maki," said Karin. "She's my sister-in-law."
"WHAT?" Chi and Karin sweat dropped. After explaining the details to her somewhat Maki understood. After all with a best friend who is a blood making vampire, things ought to be weird. Maki gladly gave Chi two large books and decided to accompany them for shopping. But unfortunately for both Karin and Maki, Chi does not appreciate cute things. But her uncle (Naruto) did say she was a big tomboy. Chi got two pairs of jeans and some button up shirts.
"Now we have to find you a job," said Maki. "But how are you going to find one when you have no school records or anything?"
"Lie," said Chi, blankly. "I already have a story prepared." Karin and Maki blinked. Ten different stops later, they wound up at Julian's, the place where Karin worked, for lunch. It just so happened to be that Usui Kenta was on duty then too.
"Hello Kenta-kun," said Karin.
"Hey Usui-kun," said Maki.
"Hello," said Chi.
"Karin, Tokito, and you are," asked Kenta to Chi.
"Chi," she replied. Thus after lunch Maki went on home to help out at the book store but Karin had to do her shift.
"I'm so sorry Chi-san, but can you find home by yourself," asked Karin. She really hoped that Chi would not get lost.
"Un, I think I'll wait for you, I still don't know the town well enough yet," said Chi.
"Oh okay," said Karin. Chi sat idly by watching Karin and Kenta work along with their cheerful manager. Karin is a nice girl. Chi was glad that she was getting along with Karin and her friend Maki was nice too. She just needed to find a job. Suddenly someone barged and told the manager that he was going to America. Then he left.
"Oh no he's my only full time employee," whined the Manager, crying. Chi grinned. Later that evening Karin, Kenta and Chi were on their way home.
"I can't believe that you lie so well," said Kenta, sighing.
"Blame my parents, Okaa-san is a chronic liar and my Otou-san was no better," said Chi.
"By the way Chi-san," said Karin, "that means then you'll never get to see Onii-chan."
"It's is best that I barely get to see him," said Chi, sighing and nodding. "We just don't get along." Kenta suddenly imagined Ren, the vampire, and Chi, the hanyou, fighting each other to the death. He still could not believe what Karin told him, after all Ren does not seem like the type of guy to get married.
The early morning the next day, Chi awoke around four, when it was still dark out. Chi was not a morning person, like everyone else in her family, but if she had more time to prepare to deal with people, she was good to go. As she stepped out of the room, Ren walked in.
"Good morning, teme."
"Good night, shoujo." Ren went to go to sleep and Chi went to get ready for her first day of work. Oh, yes what a loving marriage. Meanwhile Anju was just getting in as well along with Carrera and Henry.
"Good night Chi-nee-san," said Anju. By the way Chi told Anju that she could call her whatever she pleases. Karin was also told the same thing, but Karin thought it be silly to call someone her age '-nee-san' so she just call Chi '-san'
"Later, Anju-chan," said Chi. She nodded towards her in-laws. In the kitchen, she prepared a light breakfast. No one can handle too much food this early in the morning and the author should know since she wakes up at that time. Suddenly there was a tapping at the window. "One of Konoha's messenger birds?" There was a whole packet of mail. She skimmed through it. She got a letter from her mother, her brother, her sister, Naruto, Sasuke, Gaara, Sakura, Izumi (refer to ISOY), and Shisui (really refer to ISOY).
She began reading them while eating.
'Chi,
How are you? Are you helping out Karin-chan? Are you and Ren still not getting along? Tell your Okaa-chan, I miss you.
Your beloved mother,
Hiroko'
'Chi,
Everything is fine here in the village, no need to worry. Hikari and I have been assigned to a three month mission, but DO NOT WORRY! Did that evil vampire do anything to you? Tell me and I'll kill him. Behave and be careful, please.
Your worried brother,
Tai'
'Chi,
I love you, my dear sister.
Hikari' Chi sweat dropped, only Hikari knows just what to say.
'Chi,
How's everything? Oh by the way Izumi is pregnant! I'm so freaking excited…Now remember don't get pregnant so fast at your young age, sweetie. I can feel your death glare on me now for saying that. I just want you to be happy; try at least to get to know this Ren guy okay? Do it for your Naruto-ji.
Naruto, Rokudaime Hokage'
'Chi,
WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING AGREEING TO MARRY SOMEONE YOU HATE? SCRATCH THAT, WHAT THE HELL WAS YOUR MOTHER THINKING AGREEING TO THIS?! I SWEAR I JUST WANT MY TWO NIECES AND NEPHEW TO BE HAPPY. AND YOU GO AND DO THIS TO ME!
Do you know how worried I am? I never even met your husband, because of some vampire might react to my blood. He's probably not good enough for you. You are apart of my clan, my family. Your mother is killing me.
Your worried Ji-san,
Sasuke' Chi knew that would be her Sasuke-ji's reaction.
'Chi,
Take care of yourself please. Naruto is more worried than he is letting on and so am I.
Gaara, Godaime Kazekage' Gaara-ji is good guy.
'Chi,
I know we are not close, but if you need any advice please do not hesitate to ask me. By the way I'm going to have twins, that means the children count for Sasuke and I will be five!
Sakura' Chi grinned and pitied poor Sasuke-ji.
'Chi,
I have watched you grow up, but I never thought I see the day when you allow your mother to marry you off. Honestly Hiroko may have helped raise me (refer to ISOY) but seriously. I really just hope that you know what you are doing.
Love from,
Izumi' Chi grimaced, Izumi-ba was not happy.
'Chi,
I'm not going to yell, tell you to be careful, wonder what the hell you were thinking or anything like that, because I know everyone else did that. I think this will be a good experience for you, even if this marriage does not work out. We, your family in Konoha, love you and miss you. Have some fun, but not too much.
Shisui' Chi smiled, he always knows what to say. He was always like a father figure to her, when her own father was away and then died. Then something caught her eye.
'P.S. I found something your father left for you children. I gave Tai and Hikari theirs, so keep it safe.' Chi raised an eyebrow. She found the thing he sent her. It was a necklace with a ruby stone and her name in kanji.
"Otou-san…" She put the necklace on her and went about her business. Ren just so happened to go downstairs to find out what she was doing up so early. 'So, shoujo misses her father…Che…big baby.'
