Okay readers here is chapter seven. ENJOY (^_*)!
"I think... I think I'm going to be sick." Naru said. Standing up quickly she ran behind the tree and emptied her stomach of it's contents.
Once she had finished she flopped back down on the grass in between her two teammates and laded her head on Jen's shoulder. Who then offered her a Pocky stick, and Haru moved a stray hair out of her face. Naru's face had gone pale and sweat covered her forehead now, and small shivered were still visible. This wouldn't be the first time that Naru had gone through this, actually it was the second in. The first time she had been telling Aka, and Gaara.
Naru munched on the chocolate covered pretzel as her mind collected it's self again and things were placed back in order. Her face went blank for a second and her eyes seemed to lose their shine, they stayed like that for a few more minutes before they slowly seemed to come back to life. The first time had been a hard time talking about it but she had been thankful she had Gaara and Aka to support her just like she would have Haru and Jen's this time, or at least she hoped so.
A sigh escaped her mouth as her mind drifted back to Gaara, they had been having a rough time so far. She knew that the fourth loved them both dearly, but she wasn't sure why he had such a problem with their relationship. He had been okay with it in the beginning happy that someone finally made his daughter happy and actually saw her for her, but lately he had been trying to pull them apart. Another sigh escape her lips she was much too tired for all this thinking and the mental stress was getting to her.
"Do you want to talk about it, you know your time in Konoha?" Haru said awkwardly. She wasn't good with talking or being a supporter or at least one that had to talk.
"No... not yet, I don't think I could handle the mental stress right now." Naru said taking another Pocky bring it to her mouth, but stopping short and handing it to Haru. The girl probably needed the chocolate more then she did at the moment. Haru took the pretzel covered in chocolate gratefully.
"So what's been going on with you and Gaara lately." Jen said. Bring up the topic she had started the day they arrived, but never finished. It had been bugging her, seeing her friend like this.
"I don't know... her dad's trying to pull us apart or something, but whatever it is it's really starting to stress her out." Naru said. Sitting up and then making three doves appear but this time they were real, living, and breathing. Her Yin-Yang release working it's magic.
"Hmm like how." Haru said. Letting the Pocky stick hang in her mouth as she picked up one of the birds. This was one of the times she treasured most about their team.
"Like almost killed me in her sand." Naru murmured as she watched the two other birds peck at Jen for a Pock. She had to admit they were smart little creatures.
"Wow that bad huh. Have you talked to her dad about it." Jen said swatting at he birds as one tried to bit her hand. Naru picked one up and looked it in the eyes and then released it and watched it fly away and soon followed by the other two.
"No... almost got myself killed one day trying to." Naru said. She stood and then turned to look back at the other two girls giving a small smile. She finally felt like she could come to terms with what happen in Konoha.
Three clones appeared soon made out of black smoke each a cope of one of the three females. The other two stood up and she heard the clicking of metal as Jen put her brass knuckles on and then she watched as the area became to flood with mist, and the weather dropped several degrees to the point you could see your breath.
"I call fighting Naru this time." Haru said. Smirking it was always fun to fight the blond what with how she was unpredictable, strong, and fast it could always test their strength.
"Naru what's it like being you." Jen said. Sticking a Pocky in her mouth real quick and falling into her families traditional Taijutsu stance, The Dansurobin.
"It's hell, but a whole lot of fun." Naru said. And then they separated to fight their opponent that awaited them in the mist.
Jen, Haru, and Naru all walked back to the house after their training that night, each tired and worn out to the bones. The loved to push themselves, and try new things, and especially fighting another reason they were the second best genin team. Finally reaching the house they weren't surprised to see everyone in the house eating, it was like them to come late or to be seen doing something altogether.
They had basically made themselves a small family them being sister, Mizu the father, and the Sand Siblings their cousins. You could usually find them all hanging together or just some how in the same area without them even knowing.
"Your late." Mizu said. Smiling at the three females, they took a seat at the table and started to dig in. Naru paid no attention to Kakashi or Sasuke, but she did look at them every now and then. Satisfied when they looked away from her intense eyes.
They had been chatting amongst themselves when there was the sound of flesh hitting wood. Everyone turned to Inari, Tazuna's grandson and Tsunami's son. His white and blue striped hat covered his eyes as he spoke.
"Why are you guys helping us, your only going to get your selves killed. No one can so Gato his cruel, mean, and terrifying no one can stop him. We don't need your help your only going to make things worse! And you three, you guys come marching in three days after them acting all high and mighty you don't know what it feels like to have something taken from you, or feeling so helpless you just want to die." Inari said.
"Inari don't talk like that these people brought your grandfather home in-" Tsunami said but Inari cut in.
"No you listen you brought these people to die! How can you be happy in a time like this!" Inari yelled.
Jen was about to jump up and punch the kid but Naru stopped her holding her back. Naru shook her head and Jen sat back down.
"Let him finish he's probably had this all bottled up for so long, let him get it out." Naru said. Inari stared shocked at Naru before suddenly quieting down.
"Listen Inari. We didn't come in here to help you, we came here because your village isn't the only ones suffering, we came here because we want to help Suna. Sure we have to help you in the process but what good will it do for us if we didn't. But don't you dare say we don't know what it's like to have something take from you, I'm sure everyone in here has, so stop acting like a little brat." Jen said. it was said harshly and she only watched as the boy started to tear up.
"I on the other hand have known what it feels like to feel so helpless you want to die, for over six months, but unlike you I was locked in a cell with nothing but a cup of water everyday. And this was act the age of three you don't want to know what happen at the age of four. So you just have to learn how to suck it up and come to terms that you just might never have a perfect life. I know never had the best life but i try and make the most of it." Naru said. She looked the boy in the eyes and then just to add onto her friends speeches Haru had a few words to say.
"And they only reason Gato seems so cruel and terrifying is because you guys let him, you let him put fear in you, you let him terrify you. Your grandfather's trying to do something to stop this so don't crush someones else dreams just because yours did. Besides fear was outdated last year talk to me when your village starts killing off everyone because they had a bloodline." Jen said.
The rest of dinner was spent in silence as everyone finished their food and thought over what the three Suna females had said. Finally they had finished and Naru, Haru, and Jen went upstairs to call it a night.
Okay I know this didn't answer some of the questions you guys might have had but don't worry some of them will be answered in the next few chapters.
