Yay! Another chapter! If this chapter sucks, it's becuase it's 10 at night, and I just had to write this, becuase it would be a not cinch (i dunno) to write this chapter later. And guess what? I has more than 1000 words! GO ME!!!

Please enjoy my chapter!

I just looked at him. He glared. I thought I would've cheered him up by telling the truth (which was usually vice versa, the truth was painful), but apparenlty, it didn't work.

"Are you sure?" Sakura-san asked me. I nodded, and swung my attention back to Naruto-san.

It was definate, he was buried in denial. More truth was to come.

I sighed. "Naruto-san, if you want, I'll prove it."

He hesitated, and thought about it. I could tell. he turned his head back to me.

"Prove it."

I pondered a bit. What could I do to prove that I'm an Uzumaki? I asked myself. Think, think, THINK!

"I know about the rest of the family Naruto-san," I began. "If you want, I could tell you,"

He gasped, and so did Sakura-san. The pink-haired girl looked towards Naruto-san, waiting for his reaction. He was in deep thought, not turning back to Sakura-san. She still looked with a slightly concerned look.

"Fine," he replied. "Do you know what happened after Kyuubi attacked?"
"Lemme think here..." I replied, thinking about what my mother had told me.

"Oh yeah, the family was one of the many that evacuated," I began telling the other blonde. "They were in such a rush, since there were so many of them in the family, that they left someone in Konoha, that's what my mother told me."

Sakura-san gasped, and looked over to Naruto-san, who looked sad. He really looked depressed.

"Naruto, are you okay?" Sakura-san asked him and put her hand on his shoulder.

"I'm..okay Sakura-chan, it's nothing." he reassured her with a little smile. But I could tell she wasn't convinced, it looked like she could see right through it.
"Naruto," she began, but Naruto-san interrupted her.
He sighed. "So, I was left here?" he questioned quietly. Naruto-san's once blue jubilant eyes were now dark and more dejecected.

I decided to stay quiet for now. I didn't want to further upset my relative. Sakura-san and Naruto-san were just talking to eachother, with Sakura-san concerned, and Naruto-san, trying to cover it up, saying "Nothing's wrong, don't worry!"

After their little conversation, Sakura-san looked towards me. "So, what happened after that?"

"Well, my mother told me the whole big family split up, to other shinobi countries," I explained. "My parents were the only ones who settled in Kusagakure, and I grew up there."
"Are there any other Uzumakis in the other countries?" It was Naruto-san's voice that asked me this time.
"My parents haven't heard from them since the attack, well, that's what they said." I explained.

"So...I've been meaning to ask this for a while Kai," Sakura-san asked me. I was surprised she remembered my name, since all of this talk about the Uzumaki family could've made her forgotten that information.
"What did you want to ask, Sakura-san?"
"Well, why are you all alone? Aren't your parents worried?" she asked. I looked down and sighed. "Well,"

Flashback: Kusagakure

"Kai-chan!" a voice behind a blonde called to her. "C'mon! You'll be late, you don't want sensei to get mad on your first day!"

"Coming Kasumi-chan!" Kai called back ot her friend.

The two girls were Kai and Kasumi. Kasumi had long brown hair, and matching browm eyes. She was taller than Kai, but just by a little bit. They were on their way to the Academy in Kusagakure. Kasumi has been at the school for the past year, while Kai was starting that day as a student. She was too young, and she started on her 5th birthday. Kids could only start at the academy if they were 5 or above. It was a regualtion.

"So, are you excited today, Kai-chan?" Kasumi asked the greed-eyed blonde. Kai just shrugged. "Well, I guess,"
"You guess?" Kasumi scoffed. "You ARE."
"And why is that Kasumi-chan?" The new 5-year-old asked her friend.

She chuckled. "Obviously, Seiki-kun is there! He's in my class. I just hope you'll be there in my class also.
Kai's cheeks began to blush. "I-I don't h-have a-anything to d-do with him!" she stuttered. Seiki was a boy she liked since she met him. Only a few girls liked him, but Kai's crush indeeed was crushing her.

Kasumi laughed. "Suure," she said sarcastically.
Kai gave her a mean look. "Anyway, I doubt I'll be in your class. I mean, I'm only starting today, and I only a little bit."
"What are you talking about? I taught you everything I know! And besides, your parents are shinobi, right?"
"Right..."the blonde could only agree.
"So, they've taught you a bunch of stuff, right?"
"Yeah..."
"So, you're probably better than me! I mean, my parents aren't shinobi."

"Point taken," Kai replied. "But I doubt I'll be moved up on my first-"
"Oh look! We're here! Boy, that was fast, right Kai-chan?"

Kai could do nothing but sigh. Since Kasumi pointed out that Seiki also took classes at the Academy, Kai wasn't looking forward to it as mich as she did before.

As Kasumi entered the classroom in the Academy building, she somewhat dragged Kai with her.

"Sensei! Daisuke-sensei! Wake up!" Kasumi shook the sleeping teacher.
"Huh? What? Oh, it's you Kasumi," he woke up, looking at the brown eyed girl.

"Sensei! I have a new student!" Kasumi literally threw Kai at the tired teacher. Ahe fell on the ground and the teacher helped her up.
"Kasumi," the teacher began.
"Yeah sensei?
"She doesn't belong in this class if she's a new student. Besides, she belong with the other beginners." he said pointing to the other classroom. "She's going to the other room."
"But-"
"Kasumi."

"Fine," the brown haired girl stopped putting up a fight. "I'll walk her there, is that okay Sensei?"
"Sure, just be back before class starts.""
"Okay!" she literally jumped with joy. "C'mon Kai-chan!" she grabbed the 5 year old's wrist and ran out the class room.

"Kasumi-chan, where are we going?" she asked her friend.
"To the other classroom, duh."

"Oh," The blonse replied ot her friend.

As Kai learned alot from her first day at the academy, she also learned Kasumi was kinda right. She learned alot of this stuff from her and her parents.

After a long and tiring day of mostly review for her, it was finally time to go home. Luckily for her, she didn't get move up so quickly, or else she'd have to deal with trying not to embarrass herself in front of Seiki. She sighed as she exited the building, waiting for Kasumi.

"Hey! Kai-chan! Wait up, will ya?" she yelled to the tired blonde, who was waiting patiently.
"Kasumi-chan," Kai began. "You were right. Most of the stuff I 'learned' was from my earlier years. I wonder if I could get moved up to your class."
"I wonder too Kai-chan. Besides, all you have to really do it pass some tests, which are easy by the way." she explained to the intriguied blonde girl.
Kai smiled at the fact she could be in the same class as Seiki, her crush.

The two girls finally reached Kai's house, which wasn't so big. "Bye Kasumi-chan!" Kai called out to her brown-haired friend. "I'll see you tomorrow!"
"Bye Kai-chan!" Kasumi replied loudly.

Kai, somwhat confused by how silent it was, she opened the door. "Okaa-san, Tou-san! I'm home!" she called. But there was no answer.

"Okaa-san? Tou-san? Where are you?" she called, until she tripped over something while walking down the small hallway. She gasped.

It had been her parents, dead on the ground.

I'll leave off there, writer's block after midnight.

Well, I guess this chapter was long. Longer than the other ones (thank you flashbacks). In the flashback, I kinda used the name Kasumi too much, boy, do I forget the word pronoun. Anyway, I know the flashback kinda took up half of the chapter...sorry about that, it's like 1:30 in the morning right now...

notes:

1.) In my story, Kusagakure's minimal student age is 5. I dunno why, but it turns out I didn't do so good at the math portion of this story...so I kinda turned it from 6 to 5.
2.) Kasumi is the name if Misty in the original Pocket Monsters, or Japanese version of Pokemon. I couldn't think of a name...so I used that since nothing really stuck to me as much as that did.

Well, I hope you enjoyed my chapter. I know, the italics in the flashback hurt my eyes too, but it's for the sake of the story.

Review PLEASE? I have more stickers...and cookies...wait, Angie ate them all. Darn you Angie! (I'm joking, I still have a few cookies left...) But stickers are a plenty!
