Chapter Six: I'm back, Konoha! (Part 1)
Disclaimer: still I don't own Naruto. I just own Mitsuki Nakashima, Hana and Kimi Minakawa and Reagan Higurashi.
?'s POV:
I get out of my baby blue Mercedes just outside of the gates of Konoha. My hometown. I haven't been here for years. Not since me and my family left and went to the United States to live in Michigan. On my family's way back here, we happened to stop in Italy for a couple of years, yes. I have been absent from Konoha for several years. About 14 years I haven't lived in Konoha. And here I am now, age 20, richer than the richest clan in Konoha, and I'm hoping my house is still as I left it, empty. I step forward, towards the gates of Konoha.
"Well. It took me long enough, but, I'm back Konoha!" I say. The gates of Konoha open and I get back into my car and drive into Konoha.
I drive to my old house and park the car in the driveway, the house looks as if it were abandoned long ago. I still have my mom's key to the house. I get it out and walk up to the door, I unlock the door and enter the house. It smells like sweet vanilla, just like it did all those years ago. The house permanently smells of sweet vanilla!
I walk out to the garage and open it, go and get back in my car and pull into the garage, get out of my car, close the garage door and go back inside. I have to go buy some food while making seem like the house is still empty. Hmm... Maybe I should go looking around for the people I hung with when I was 6.
"Hn. I should go and find Naru-chin. Wonder if he ever went to college or if he sat his lazy ass at home with Minato-Senpai and Kushina-Senpai and eats ramen all day." I say as I head out of my house, deciding to go see if Naruto went off to Konoha U. Since Naruto's house is only a block from my house, I just walk there. I takes me a good 15 minutes to get to his house.
I walk up to the door and ring the doorbell, I wait there for about 5 minutes before this pale blonde girl with really semi-pale blueish-green eyes opens the door and says in a bored tone, "Who are you? What do you want?"
I simply look at this girl with a weird look on my face, "I'm an old friend of Naruto Uzumaki. I would like to see him. And is Minato-Senpai here by any chance? How about Kushina-Senpai, is she here? If she is, may I please speak with her?" I say.
"Hold up a sec. I'll go get Okāsan for you." the girl says.
Okāsan? She doesn't look like Naruto's sister, so why did she call Kushina-Senpai 'Okāsan'? I'll have to ask Kushina-Senpai why that girl calls her Okāsan.
Finally, Kushina-Senpai walks to the door with the girl walking up the stairs. When she sees me, she squeals and hugs me, well more like glomps, "Reagan! I thought I was never ever gonna see you ever again!" she exclaims like she is a 10 year old girl reunited with her best friend she hasn't seen in 6 years.
"Hey again, Kushina-Senpai." I say, hugging her back, "I have a question for you."
Kushina-Senpai looks at me, "Yes, Reagan? What would your question be?"
I notice the two, who I presume are identical twins since they are exactly alike, "Why do those twins call you Okāsan, Kushina-Senpai?" I ask.
"Oh, you mean why do Hana and Kimi Minakawa call me Okāsan? The reason is that their older sister, Mitsuki Nakashima, and them have been living with us since Mitsuki was 9 and Hana and Kimi were 4. Their parents, older brother, and their older brother who was Mitsuki's fraternal twin brother were... *whisper* murdered. *normal voice* And Mitsuki came here and asked if the three of them could live with me, Minato and Naruto. You see, Naruto and Mitsuki instantly became best friend upon meeting each other in Konoha Elementary. Just after Naruto lost both you and Sasuke to your families moving." she explains.
I look at the twins, who are oblivious of my question I asked Kushina-Senpai and give them a sad look, "Oh. Well that sucks. Anyways! Where's Minato-Senpai? And where's Naru-chin? I thought he'd be sitting on his lazy bum eating ramen, still living with you and Minato-Senpai. Not even bothering to go to college." I say.
Kushina-Senpai holds her cheek with a slight blush on her cheeks, "Naruto actually did go off to college. He, Mitsuki, Kiba and Sai all got scholarships to Konoha U due to their band, A Crimson Akahana's Flavor. They actually are a rather nice band." she says.
My mouth drops open, "WHAT?! Naru-chin actually got himself a scholarship at Konoha U?! What about Saku-chin?"
"Once Mitsuki came to live with us, I never heard much of Sakura anymore. I did hear that she got held back in her freshman year of high school because of poor grades. And according to Mitsuki, the only reason Sakura was getting bad grades was because she was fooling around with Rock Lee too much that year, so she didn't preform her best." Kushina-Senpai says.
"Saku-chin and Rock Lee? Now that, I would've payed to see! If only I hadn't moved away before I saw THEM!" I exclaim hysterically.
"I know right. You would've thought that even though Sasuke had moved away, Sakura's obsessive crush over him wouldn't dissipate over a few meager years of Sasuke being gone. You think she would've moved to Naruto, but Naruto had stopped showing any interest in Sakura and started showing more interests in Mitsuki and Hinata more than anybody." Kushina-Senpai says with a wink.
I giggle, "And what of Minato-Senpai? Where is he?"
"Visiting Mitsuki and Naruto at Konoha U. You should go visit Naruto. He'll be happy to see you after 14 years." Kushina-Senpai says with a pat of my shoulder.
I turn around, "Ok. I'll go and visit Naru-chin and Minato-Senpai and this Mitsuki girl at Konoha U. What dorm do they live in?"
Kushina-Senpai places a hand on her chin to think, "They live in the dorm just to the right off of Konoha University Avenue. Dorm room, 10."
"Thank you, Kushina-Senpai!" I say as I dash off to go to Konoha U.
On my way to Konoha U, I run into Shikamaru Nara, "Nara? Is that you?" I ask as I stop dead in my tracks as he passes by me. Shikamaru stops dead in his tracks also and looks back at me.
"Higurashi?" he asks out loud quizzically.
"Oh my goodness! Nara, you've grown into quite the handsome young thing, haven't you?" I chuckle then look at Shikamaru with a mischievously devilish smirk.
He, now, fully turns around to face me. "Thanks for the compliment, but you have grown into a fine young woman yourself in the 14 years I haven't seen you, Higurashi." he says as he looks my body up and down.
"Nara. You still the smartest genius of geniuses in the Land of Fire?" I ask, placing a hand on my hip.
Shikamaru looks me in the eyes and walks closer to me, "Of course I am. Why do you ask, Higurashi?"
I shrug and wrap my arms around Shikamaru's neck, giving him a hug, "You're still my little smartest genius of all geniuses, Nara." I say.
He lazily hugs me back. I smirk, "God, still the laziest S.O.B to ever walk the planet, huh, Nara." I state bluntly.
"Y'know it, Higurashi. Now if you don't mind, I gotta go meet up with Ino and Chouji." he says as he pulls away and turns way from me.
I huff, "Fine. Bye, Nara!" I say.
"Pfft. Yeah, later, Higurashi." he says waving bye to me.
I smile, turn around and continue walking to Konoha U. Now I run into Hinata. Dang! She has matured a lot in the past 14 years.
"Hinata-chan!" I call out to her.
She turns around, "Reagan Higurashi?" she says as she turns around, sees me, then runs towards me to hug me, I gladly embrace her hug with love.
"Hinata Hyuuga." I state mockingly, but a joking kind of mockingly.
She hugs me tighter, "I've missed you! What are you doing back here in Konoha?" she asks.
"Well. I'm back to stay in Konoha." I say to her with a smile on my face. Hinata's face lights up and her grips on me tightens.
She nearly squeals, "YAY! Reagan! You're back for good!"
I place a hand on her head, stroking her head gently, "Of course I am, Hinata-chan." I say, "Uh... Hinata-chan? Do you mind letting me go? I have to go visit Minato-Senpai, Naru-chin and Mitsuki."
"O— oh you're going to visit Naruto-kun?" Hinata stutters, heh.. so apparently Hinata-chan still does stutter when it comes to Naruto Uzumaki.
I smile and pat Hinata's head, smiling down at her, "Of course I am! Hinata-chan! I haven't seen Naru-chin in 14 years, I wanna go see my Naru-chin! Would you like with me?" I ask.
Hinata pulls away from the hug and scratches her cheek embarrassedly, "N— no. I'm ok. I— I don't want to see Naruto-Kun. I saw him in class today." she says.
I smile and hug her quickly, "Ok then, Hinata-chan. Whatever you say." I turn around and am about to start walking when Hinata calls out to me.
"Hey! Reagan! Who'd never believe who came back to Konoha as well! He just started Konoha U Wednesday!" she yells to me.
I look over my shoulder at Hinata-Chan, "Oh? Really? And who would that be, Hinata-chan?" I ask loudly back at her.
She smiles, "It was Sasuke Uchiha! He's back. Aren't you happy? I'm sure Naruto-kun will be really happy knowing that his two bestest best friends are both back in Konoha!" she says happily.
I gasp, "S— Sasu's back?!" I exclaim unbelievingly.
"Yes! Sasuke is back! I was surprised myself! Well, you'd best be on your way to see Naruto-kun, Reagan!" Hinata-Chan yells.
"Hai! I'd best be on my way! Naru-chin, Sasu, here I come! There's gonna be a big party tonight and everybody's invited!" I scream as I sprint off to Konoha U.
About 20 minutes later I arrive at Konoha University Avenue and see the dorms, they are just where Kushina-Senpai had told me they were. I quickly sprint off to find Konoha University Avenue dorm room 10. I happen to run into this shaggy-haired boy, I don't know who he is, my eyes were scanning every room I pass by.
"Excuse me. Don't you have something to say for running into me?" he stated, as if he was expecting me to sincerely apologize.
I slow down a bit, but still I keep running, I actually slow down to a jogging pace, "Look... I don't know who you think I am... But obviously, you were the dip-shit who ran into me... So if you're expecting me to apologize, you are dead fucking wrong!" I yell at this guy.
"I know that attitude anywhere... Reagan Higurashi..." the guy says as he turns towards me. I stop jogging and turn to face this man who happens to know my name.
My mouth drops as I see who this unknown man is, "K— Kiba-kun!" I exclaim as I run towards this shaggy-haired, sexy dog-boy!
He smiles and gets into a stance looking as if he's gonna block my glomp. Sorely mistaken, Kiba! I move so fast, Kiba is left dumbfounded as I 'reappear' beside Kiba and smirk, "I'm still the faster one, Kiba-Kun. Nice try at blocking me, but, you… still fail…" I whisper to him as I glomp him to the ground.
Kiba grunts, "Ugh… and here I thought I would've finally been able to become faster than you, especially after 14 years." he says, defeated.
"Well… apparently you were wrong, huh, Kiba-kun?" I say nuzzling him.
After a few minutes Kiba and I stand up, "So… Reagan, where are you going in such a rush, huh?" he asks me when we're both on our feet again.
"To Naru-Chin's dorm. Do you know where it is?" I ask him, with my innocent face on.
Kiba smirks, "Oh yeah, I know where Naruto's dorm is. Would you like me to take you there?"
My faces lights up, "Yes! Oh, yes! Please take me there, Kiba-kun! I'd be forever grateful." I say, grabbing Kiba's arm.
Kiba smiles and we start walking in the direction Kiba was walking from, "Of course, my sexy little Reagan." he says in a husky voice.
A excited shiver makes it way down my spine when Kiba says my name in the husky voice... Since when did he obtain that? Whenever he did, God, I must have missed it during my 14 years of absence. I want to hear if anybody else's voices have gotten a husky tone like Kiba's has.
"Thank you, Kiba-kun." I say happily.
Kiba chuckles a husky chuckle, "No problem, Reagan." That same shiver goes down my back again.
A good five minutes later, we arrive at Naruto's dorm, and their is some dude standing outside of Naruto's dorm's door.
"No! Teme, I told you, I can't because my Otōsan's here!" Naruto, no doubt that it's Naru-chin, exclaims.
Teme? He only call's Sasu 'Teme'... Wait! That means that… I look at the guy standing in front of Naru-chin's door... sure 'nough... chicken-ass hairstyle... "…SASU! YOU TEME!" I yell as I unconsciously sprint to glomp Sasuke Uchiha, but I stop the idea of glomping him when I see a red-haired girl latched onto Sasu's arm like she is superglued to his arm.
"The fu—" Sasu begins before Naru-chin interrupts, "R— Rea-Chama?" Naru-chin exclaims unbelievingly.
I glomp Naru-chin, "Y'know it, Naru-chin! Long time no see, huh, Naru-chin?" I exclaim as I kiss his cheek.
"When did you get back, Reagan?" Sasu asks me.
"Just today. When did you get back and who is hanging on your arm like she is superglued to your arm?" I ask pointing to the red-head.
"I'm Karin. Sasuke-kun's girlfr—" Karin begin before she is cut off.
I hear a very angry female voice call from inside Naru-chin's dorm, "MY POINT EXACTLY, TEME!" she exclaims.
"Shut up, Mitsuki!" Sasu yells irritatingly back at the voice.
"AHH! So the mighty Uchiha-teme remembers my name!" Mitsuki calls back to Sasu as she appears. OMT! She is beautiful! Beautiful long grayish-light blonde hair and she has beautiful deep golden eyes that shimmer with hatred towards Sasu and the red-head clingy girl superglued to his arm.
I look at this Mitsuki girl, "You are beautiful, Mitsuki-chan..." I say mesmerized at her beauty.
The girl looks at me, then processes that I just payed her a wonderful compliment, I notice her cheeks turn a light pink, "W-why t-thank y-you. I'm afraid I don't know your name."
I smile, "The name's Reagan Higurashi! Childhood friend of Naru-chin (Naruto Uzumaki), Sasu (Sasuke Uchiha) and Itachin (Itachi Uchiha) and most of the people Naru-chin and Sasu's age. I am a childhood friend of Itachin's friends, too. What would your name be?" I say.
"Nice to meet you, Reagan. Naru-kun has told me a lot about the fun times you, him and Sasuke-teme had when you guys were kids. It's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Mitsuki Nakashima and I have been living with Naru-kun since I was 9 (my family minus my younger twin sisters [Hana and Kimi Minakawa] were murdered). My stage name is Akari Ukashima. I am the one of the lead vocalist and guitarist for the band that Naru-kun, Kiba and Sai created that is named A Crimson Akahana's Flavor." Mitsuki says.
"OMT! I've heard of Akari Ukashima! I never knew Naru-chin, Kiba-kun and Sai-Sensei were in that band with you!" I exclaim with starry eyes.
"OMT? What does that mean?" Mitsuki, Naru-chin, Sasu and Karen ask.
"Oh My Toshimo." I say bluntly.
"Toshimo? Who's that?" Naru-chin and Mitsuki ask simultaneously.
"Toshimo is a character from Bleach. His actual name is Captain of Squad 10, Toshiro Hitsugaya." I explain.
"Rea-Chama! You watch Bleach, too?!" Naru-chin exclaims.
"Uhh… YEAH! Course I does, Naru-chin!" I yell proudly.
"Holy crap! Me, Mitsuki-chin and Kiba are also Bleach fanatics!"
"No way Naru-chin!"
"For real, Rea-Chama!"
"AWESOMENESS! The four of us should get together soon and have a Bleach watching marathon together!"
"Definitely! Believe it!"
Mitsuki cuts in, "Who's your fave Bleach character?"
I stop and think, "Well, I am obsessed with Toshimo. But Ichi-Nii's pretty cool. I'd have to say that my fave characters are Toshiro 'Toshimo' Hitsugaya and Ichigo 'Ichi-Nii' Kurosaki. Who is yours, Mitsuki-chan?" I ask.
"Mine is Ichigo Kurosaki, too!" she squeals.
"OMT! You are now my new (non-childhood) best friend, Mitsuki-chan!" I exclaim as I glomp Mitsuki. I notice marks on Mitsuki's neck that signal that she has been choked and I know that Naru-chin wouldn't have choked the girl he loves like a sister and who has lived with him since she was 9. Meaning that Sasu had to have choked her.
"AHEM! EXCUSE ME! THAT BITCH JUST INTERRUPTED ME WHILE I WAS INTRODUCING MYSELF! SASUKE-KUN! DO SOMETHING!" Karen yells obnoxiously.
I roll my eyes, release Mitsuki from my glomp, cross my arms over my well-developed chest, glaring at Karen, "My Toshimo! Can you be any more OBNOXIOUS, Karen. I mean, seriously… Not even a whining baby is as obnoxious as you are. Let's see why, shall we? Alright, firstly, your are clinging to MY Sasu's arm like you ever-loving superglued to his arm. When we can all clearly see that he doesn't like you being latched to his arm like a leech. Secondly, you just yelled obnoxiously loud complaining that Mitsuki-chan interrupted you and whined to Sasu to 'do something' about Mitsuki-chan interrupting you. What were you gonna say, hmm? 'I'm Karin! Sasuke-kun's girlfriend'? Is that what you were gonna say? Well, good for you. You're Sasu's girlfriend. GET A LIFE! So what if you Sasu's girlfriend? What kinda girlfriend clings to her boyfriends arm like a leech that is trying to drain the life outta him? You're an annoying, obnoxious, attention-whore of a girlfriend from my honest opinion." I finish, a slight hint of annoyance in my tone.
Suddenly, my thoughts drift and I think about the first time I met Sasu... and Naru-chin... And Itachin... We were all 3 years old and Itachin was 8. Aah… those were the good old says where the four of us always hung out and had sleepovers. All the time. How I genuinely miss those days wit every fiber of my being.
Please R&R. I'd like to know how all you the readers like my story… since this is my first fanfic on this site.
