Chapter 4. Hehe… it's also Document 4 right now. Hehe… irony. Anyway, I'm kinda lost with this story, just so you know. Whatever, let's begin. STUPID PAGE DOWN BUTTON!!!! –Growls-

"What could she want now?" I grumbled as I trudged up the stairs to Tsunade's office. She had asked to see me, but I'm not sure why and frankly, I probably wouldn't care about what she told me. Shizune was standing in front of the door, as always. I stared at her. She looked a bit intimidated, but turned to the door, knocked, and said, "She's here my lady." Who the hell say 'my lady' anymore? Sheesh! I heard a rough "The open the damn door already!" Apparently she was unhappy. Just my luck. Shizune let me in and I walked past the chair positioned in the middle of the room and up to her desk, which was littered with bottles of sake.

"What do you want?" I demanded. He looked up from the paper she was reading and glared at me. I glared back.

"You shouldn't talk to me like that, I'm the Hokage, missy!" she snapped.

"So? I'm Kyoko Mika, what do I care?" I stepped back and leaned on the chair.

Ignoring my comment, she spoke, "Kakashi has told me your training is going well, and I've decided I trust you enough in the few months you've been here to allow you to go on missions." She grumbled under her breath, "But perhaps I was wrong…" I pretended like I didn't hear her. Let's not make her too annoyed with me, then it won't be much fun. "But," I listened, uninterested, "there are no squads that need an extra member. So I decided I'd need to put you on a squad with already three members. It's unusual, but there are some Genin squads with four members, on special occasions." I raised my eyebrows in interest. Maybe this was important after all. She smirked, knowing she finally had my attention, "So I've decided to put you on Team 8, Kurenai's squad. Your teammates are Inuzuka Kiba and Akamaru, Aburame Shino, and Hyuuga Hinata. You should probably meet them eventually, but I don't have time for that, so you can do that on your own time. Dismissed."

'Interesting. I've never been on a squad before. I hope those other two kids aren't annoying. Hinata's not that bad… except for her stuttering. That drove me crazy.' I had walked out and back down the steps I had come up moments ago. That really pissed me off…

"Hey, Mika! Watcha doing?" Great… Naruto.

"I was talking to Tsunade."

"Really? What'd she say?"

"I'm on Team… 8," I remembered.

"Wow, REALLY!?!?" That's awesome! But… wait, that makes four members? How does that work!?!?" Does he ever stop yelling!?!? REALLY!?!?

"Tsunade said it happens sometimes, and stop yelling, it's annoying."

"Oh, sorry." He put his hand behind his head. "So, have met anyone yet? I mean, anyone on your squad?"

"Hinata."

"That's it? Then I gotta take you to meet the rest of your squad, come on!!" he grabbed my hand and started pulling me along behind him. My eyes began twitching, but I followed him, to the best of my abilities, attempting to avoid falling over or running into anyone. 'Where does he think he's going anyway?' I wondered. It's probably not likely there just sitting in their houses all day. Sure enough, after I was dizzy and sick to my stomach, he ran into a training area where all three of them were practicing, with a woman I assumed must be that Kurenai person. At long last Naruto released his grip on my hand and I stopped, focusing all of my energy on breathing. After I had caught my breath, I looked up and Naruto had shouted, "Hey, this is Mika!!! She's on your team now!!! Believe it!!!!" Stupid catch phrase. I dusted myself off, because surprisingly, being dragged along the dirt streets off Konoha makes you dirty.

"Naruto, you're an idiot. Now I am covered in dirt!! Thanks a lot!!" He smiled evilly.

"You're welcome!!" I knew he was teasing, but it still annoyed the crap out of me. I looked at my 'teammates.' Hinata was blushing and looking down, which wasn't surprising. One kid had dark glasses and a jacket with a collar that practically covered his entire face. Weirdo. The other kid had a dog on his head and had an equally weird jacket with black fur around the hood. I hated them both immediately. I turned to the woman, who had dark brown, somewhat curly hair that went to her shoulders. Her eyes were red. Strange.

"Hi. Naruto dragged me over here, as you can probably guess." I said, unpleasantly.

"So, she's the girl you were talking about, Kurenai-sensei?" the kid with the dog asked.

"Yes. It's nice to meet you, Kyoko Mika. I hope you like my team. Welcome." She was friendly. It annoyed me.

"Yeah, yeah."

"That's kinda rude!" the same kid barked along with his dog.

"Whatever, like I care."

"You should! She is your new sensei, after all! You have to treat her with respect!" this kid was rude. It also annoyed me.

"I treat no one with respect." The dog growled at me. Pffft, what does the dog think it can do?

"Calm down, Kiba. Being rude back won't solve anything." The glasses kid said, sounding bored.

"Shino's probably r-right, Kiba." Hinata said timidly, stuttering. That means the dog was Akamaru. Whoop-dee-doo, I got the names over with.

"Don't worry about Mika, she's always like that!" Naruto chimed in. "You kinda just get used to it." He shrugged.

"Well, why don't you four get to know each other. You've trained enough today anyway!" Kurenai said. 'Hmmph, she probably just wants to get as far away from us as possible…'

"So, Kiba, what's up with the little puppy dog on your head? Surely, a ninja, even a Genin, doesn't have time to care for a pet?" I smirked. That made him angry.

"Akamaru is not just a pet! He's my partner, and don't you forget it!" This kid would be fun to annoy…

"A puppy? Your partner? What could a small runt like that do to anyone?"

"Shut up! Don't talk to Akamaru like that, you jerk!" The puppy barked in agreement. "Akamaru is a great fighter and I wouldn't even think about going anywhere without him!"

"Whatever. You and your puppy can do what you want. I really don't care." He was glaring at me. He had his hands curled tightly into fists at his sides. Just a little more, and the kid might explode. That could be real entertaining.

"Mika, stop being so rude! These are your new teammates, after all! You'll have to learn to get along with each other!" Naruto Oh-So-Eagerly chimed in.

"Like you and Sasuke?" I mused. Naruto glared at me.

"Sasuke and I may not get along very well, but we'll… sort of work together sometimes…" I raised my eyebrows at him. "Okay, fine! It doesn't mean you have to be uncooperative, though!"

"Yeah, I know. It's just really fun!" I smiled sweetly. "And especially since Kiba and his puppy get angry so quickly! That's the best part." I winked at them evilly.

"Listen here, Mika!" Kiba rudely interrupted. "I'm the leader of this team, and I have been since we were put into squads, so you're just going to have to get used to it and listen to me!" Now he was getting on my nerves a little. Who said he could tell me what to do? I laughed sarcastically.

"Really, that's pretty funny! No one's ever before tried to boss me around, and now you think you can? Not even me mother can control me!" As I said it a cold hard lump formed in the pit of my stomach and I regretted every word. My mother (I called her mother because my birth parents weren't deserving of the title) couldn't boss me around. Not anymore. She was dead.

"Oh, well that's too bad for everyone, now isn't it? She can't control her own child," I winced, "and now everyone else has to pay! Is that how it works? That sucks for us, but it works out great for you, so who cares???" Anger boiled inside me and I looked up at Kiba. His annoyance turned into surprise as he saw the anger and hatred in my eyes. I didn't give him a second to say anything. I walked up to him. Akamaru whimpered. I ignored it.

"You've gone to far and you've really ticked me off, pal. Now you're in for a world of hurt!" I raised my hand and punched him. He had time to shield his face with his arms, of course, but that didn't matter. My blow hit his hands and he went flying in the opposite direction before hitting the ground with a loud crash! I started walking towards him when a blur of orange blocked my view.

"Remember what happened last time?" I recognized Naruto's voice, but the words were incoherent. I stepped around him and continued going towards Kiba. He was sitting up and he saw me approach and a look of total fear and dread washed over him. Suddenly, the memory of my fight from Gaara jolted into my mind and I fell to my knees. As I was recalling the damage I'd done, I also remembered all of the painful feelings I'd felt and suddenly my arm hurt like hell! My body acted on its own while my mind was still stuck in my memory. I felt myself grab something and I heard a loud wailing sound. My eyes closed and I realized I was holding my burning arm. Did that mean I was making that noise? Something was dripping down my face. Releasing my arm I felt something wet, and assumed they were tears. My eyes still shut tight I heard a worried voice. I didn't understand what they were saying. I heard only a few words.

"Me… you…right… please… wrong… help…" It still seemed like I wasn't there. I focused only on the guilt and regret I was feeling. How could I have done that? How could I be stupid enough to do it again? What the hell is wrong with me? Why can't I keep control…? I opened my eyes and my arm had instantly stopped hurting. I stood and shrugged off the arm that was around my shoulder. I looked to where Kiba had been. He was not there. I turned and the three others were there. Hinata had been closest and I figured it was her who had been talking to me. Naruto was still kneeling, so he must have been the one who's arm was around me. Akamaru and Kiba were the furthest, probably trying to keep their distance from me. Shino was standing a couple feet off, worried, but not getting in the way. I ignored Hinata's worried cries as I pushed passed her and Naruto. I walked back towards town. She was following me. Naruto was watching, confused, but didn't follow. I kept walking and even picked up my pace. I raced through town and saw people staring at me. Some were puzzled, some were angry and shouted rude things as I passed, and some just ignored me entirely. I reached the gate at the front of the village at last. I looked around and saw someone who was selling maps. I calmly walked over, not worrying if Hinata had caught up with me. I spent a good amount of my money on an overpriced map, and then headed towards the gate. I stuck the map in my pocket. I simply walked out and the guards in front, seeing my Genin Leaf headband asked me where I thought I was going. I turned to them.

"Why do you want to know?" I said, emotionless.

"We're not allowed to let any Genin out of the village without permission, missy, so where are you going?" the taller one demanded.

"I'm going out." I stated before continuing my walk. I could hear one of them walking quickly up to me. I sped up slightly, and he walked faster as well. 'Guess I'll need to deal with him first, huh?' I turned to face him. "Stop following me."

"You cannot leave the village, little girl! Get back inside!" I still remained emotionless, even when I heard fast footsteps coming and saw Hinata running after me.

"Mika, where are you going?" she shouted as she reached me.

"I'm leaving. I might be back. You can't stop me." I turned and walked off, but the guard, a Jounin, grabbed my wrist. I turned and pushed him off of me, and he stumbled back, surprised at my strength. Before he had a second to regain his balance, I was gone.

This story is REALLY all over the place… -sigh- Well, I decided I didn't feel like drawing Mika, so I found a picture online. You can see it if you go to my profile! For once, I have nothing more to say. Weird. Wait, never mind! I thought of something to say! She wears her Leaf headband on her arm. Kind of higher up near her sleeve though.
