YO!

Enjoy ^_^ Sorry, I just had to introduce the Naruto guys. SasoHana in the next chapter, for sure.

CHAPTER 7

As I neared the building, I heard voices.

"This is your fault!" a loud voice yelled. "If you hadn't been so drunk, we wouldn't be in this mess!"

"My fault?" yelled back a familiar voice. "I'm not the only one who was drunk!"

I stepped into view to see a couple of boys fighting and one trying to break them off. Three of them were simply shaking their heads and leaning against a car; Tsume-san's car to be exact.

I saw Kiba was one of the boys who were fighting. His spiky brown hair was messier than ever and his eyes, that were black and had silted pupils, were narrowed at the kid he was fighting with. He also had red triangles painted on his cheeks, like his sister, and was wearing a grey hoodie and faded jeans with white sneakers.

I smirked as I leaned on the building.

"When's your sister gonna get here?" grumbled the kid who had been fighting with Kiba.

"She's already here." I said. All of them looked at me. Kiba grinned and tackled me with a hug. I hugged back with equal force.

"God, it's good to see you!" I told him.

"It's great to see you!" Kiba exclaimed. He looked at his friends. 'This is my best buddy, Konan. Konan these are my friends, Naruto, Shikamaru, Neji, Gaara and Sasuke."

He pointed out to each guy whose name he called out.

Naruto was the kid he was fighting with and he had blonde hair and cerulean eyes. He had tan skin and three whisker-like scars on each cheek. He was wearing a yellow t-shirt, which had a picture of a ramen bowl, with black skinny jeans and golden DCs.

Shikamaru looked like Sasori in a way since both had lazy expressions. He had black eyes and hair which he tied in a spiky ponytail making his head look like a pineapple. He was wearing a piercing on his left ear and a dark green hoodie jacket with jeans and black converse.

Neji was the boy who was breaking up the fight and had long brown hair, which for some reason looked very silky, that was tied in a low ponytail and lilac eyes. He looked very mature and calm and was wearing a white long-sleeved shirt with grey skinny jeans and black converse.

Gaara was a miniature Sasori with jade colored eyes. He had the same spiky red hair and wore some eyeliner around his eyes. He had a tattoo which said 'Love' in Kanji on the left side of his forehead and was wearing a black leather jacket over a white shirt and jeans with black Vans.

Sasuke looked exactly like Itachi, minus the smile and long hair. He had bluish black hair that was spiked up rebelliously at the back and the same onyx eyes. He was wearing a black high-collared t-shirt and black jeans with dark blue Vans. I wonder if he's Itachi's brother . . .

"I thought you sister was coming." Neji said monotonously.

"She's here," I told them. "She's just a little dizzy because of the ride here. She'll be here shortly." Kiba gulped and I patted his back.

I looked at Sasuke, "Itachi's brother?"

Sasuke raised an eyebrow and shoved his hands into his pockets, "Hn."

"What does that mean?" I asked him.

"That means yes in teme language." Naruto said with a grin.

"Dobe." Sasuke muttered. Naruto stuck his tongue out at him.

"You brother told me to give you something in case you're here." I told him with a smile. He looked at me lazily. I walked towards him and flicked his forehead. He rubbed the spot where I flicked and glared at me.

I chuckled, "You are nothing like Itachi, aren't you?"

Kiba cleared his throat, "Konan, we have to get back to Konoha. Our parents already lectured us this morning." The others groaned.

I nodded, "I'll ask Hana."

At that moment, a hand grabbed Kiba's ear and pulled hard. Kiba cried out in pain, "Why'd you do that, sissy?"

"For taking mom's car and for not being responsible!" Hana yelled.

"Kiba's sister is scary," Shikamaru muttered. "Troublesome; she's just like my mom."

I snickered, "I agree, Hana is scary. But Kiba's mom is scarier." Trust me; I know. One time, we all stayed up late when she told us not to . . . well it was Kiba and me since Hana being the good girl, obeyed her mom. They next day we overslept and were late for school and boy did we get out ears pulled.

"Okay," Hana smiled as she looked at the others. "I'm Hana. Now give me quick introductions of yourselves to me." The boys silently muttered their names.

Tobi soon joined us and when he saw Sasuke, he came running over. He immediately jumped on the poor guy to hug him.

"SASUKE! SASUKE! SASUKE! GREAT TO SEE YOU!" Tobi exclaimed while shaking Sasuke back and forth.

"Tobi get off of me!" Sasuke muttered as he pushed Tobi off. Tobi crossed his arms, "That's not very nice!"

Tobi went over to Naruto and the two of them started to jump up and down.

"GREAT TO SEE YOU AGAIN!" They yelled to each other. Wow. I wonder if they were brothers.

"Are you brothers?" I couldn't help but ask.

Tobi shook his head, "Naruto is not Tobi's brother. Naruto is Pein-san's brother!"

I almost choked, "Pein's brother. But . . . you're so cute and bubbly. Pein is just plain moody!" I crossed my arms.

Naruto blushed a bit and grinned, "You're right; my brother is moody. It's hard to believe we're related, isn't it?"

I nodded in full agreement. Hana giggled, "Your boyfriend's brother."

Naruto and Tobi gasped, "You're dating him?" Both were equally loud. I bet they were bothers in the previous life.

I vigorously shook my head, "No way. We're not even friends."

Tobi and Naruto looked at each other and then shrugged.

Tobi then saw Gaara and looked at him really closely like he was an alien. Gaara raised an eyebrow and Tobi clapped his hands, "You're Sasori-senpai's brother aren't you?"

"I knew you were related to him!" I exclaimed. "No wonder you look alike!"

"I look nothing like him." Gaara muttered. But I knew better. And then it hit me . . .

"Hey Hana," I called out. I slung my arms over Sasuke's and Gaara's shoulder. "One of these guys would be your brother-in-law in the future!"

"Brother-in-law?" the two of them said in union. Hana turned pink and glared at me, "Will you drop that subject already?"

I looked at the two boys, "Hana here caught the attention of both your brothers and someday, she'll marry one of them. Don't worry; she'll make an amazing sister!" Sasuke and Gaara looked at Hana with an amused expression.

"What?" exclaimed Kiba. "Hana and guys? Yeah right! And pigs fly." Hana yanked Kiba's ear once more making him whine in protest and pain.

Tobi gasped, "Hana-chan, if you marry Itachi-nii . . . we'll be family!" Tobi started to dance around like crazy and Hana blushed even more.

Suddenly, Tobi's phone started to buzz. Tobi looked at the number and beamed, "ITACHI-NII! YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED!"

I couldn't control my laughter. Even Kiba and Naruto fell to the ground laughing while Neji, Shikamaru, Gaara and Sasuke smirked. Hana was now turning a deeper shade of red.

Tobi had put the phone on loud speaker mode so we could hear Itachi's voice.

"Erm . . . That's nice, Tobi; I'm jumping with joy," Itachi said slowly and a bit awkwardly. Then he cleared his throat. "I have a message to you from Deidara, since he can't use his hands to call you. Here, talk to him."

Deidara spoke through the phone, "Tobi, you are so dead for taking my car, un."

"But senpai," Tobi protested. "It was an emergency."

"Whatever," Deidara muttered. 'I'm gonna kill you, un."

"Your hands are sprained." Tobi stated nosily.

"Still dead." Deidara said and I was positive that he was smirking on the other end of that phone. Tobi gulped then sighed, "Itachi-nii! I met Sasuke."

"Hello, otouto. Someone please flick his forehead for me." said Itachi.

"Shut up." Sasuke muttered.

I snickered, "Already done."

Tobi yelled goodbye into the phone and shoved it back into his pocket.

"I'll fix the van." I said as I headed for the black SUV that was behind us.

"Hold on," said Hana. I looked at her as she crossed her arms. "Since when can you fix cars?"

I grinned, "Tsume-san taught me a thing or two. She said she worked part-time as a mechanic and taught me a few things."

I opened the back of the van and grabbed the tools I needed. Then, I started to work. After about 10 minutes I was done.

I wiped my forehead and grinned, "That's done! Everything is good to go."

"Okay," said Hana. "I'm going to ask my mom to pick you up from the borders of Ame."

"Tobi will drive!" Tobi volunteered happily.

Hana gulped and grinned nervously, "Tobi, why don't you . . . drive Deidara-san's car. We'll need it to get back to college afterwards!" Tobi thought about it and nodded happily. Hana quietly released a sigh of relief.

"I'll ride with you!" Naruto said with a grin. Tobi nodded happily.

"I'll drive the van then." said Kiba.

Hana shook her head, "No, I'm sorry, but I'm not going to trust any of you with the wheel so I'll drive."

"Since when can you drive?" Kiba and I asked in union.

Hana smiled, "Mom taught me a couple of things too." I stuck my tongue out at her. Great; now I was the only one who didn't know how to drive.

"Let's go." Gaara said flatly.

Hana started the car and drove the car at an average and cautious speed. Kiba groaned, "Hana, you drive like a grandma!"

"Would you like it if I drop you off to your punishment quickly?" Hana asked sweetly. Kiba shook his head and shut up.

Tobi and Naruto followed us and Tobi was going at it with his crazy driving. I could see Naruto throwing his hands in the air and yelling something.

Shikamaru smirked, "I can see you didn't let him drive."

I pouted, "I wish I rode with them."

Hana handed me her phone, "Konan-chan, please call mom and tell her everything."

I nodded and dialed the number. After five rings, a gruff woman's voice answered, "Tsume's phone."

"Hey Tsume-san," I said with a grin. "It's Konan."

"Hey there," Tsume beamed. "How's college treating ya? How's Hana?"

"We're both great," I told her. "Listen, can you please come to the borders of Ame?"

"Why?" asked Tsume.

"You see Kiba and his friends are here and-"

"SAY WHAT?" Tsume boomed. Kiba shrunk in his seat. "He said he was going out for a party with his friends!"

"Yeah," I said slowly. "But I guess they had too much fun with the partying and drinks and now they're in Ame."

Tsume sighed, "Alright, I'll be there. Tell Kiba that he's in big trouble . . . and that he drinks like a girl!" And with that Tsume hung up.

I looked at Kiba, "She told me to tell you that you're in big trouble and that you drink like a girl." His friends chuckled softly while Kiba crossed his arms and pouted.

Hana stopped in front of a ramen shop in town. I looked at her, "What's wrong?"

"Let's get some ramen," said Hana. "It'll be a while before mom get's here. Besides, I bet none of you have eaten breakfast. Let's go; it's my treat."

Tobi and Naruto stopped the car abruptly behind us. Naruto stepped out grinning like crazy, "That was awesome, man!" Tobi clapped his hands happily.

"Let's get ramen." I called out.

"RAMEN!" Naruto yelled as he ran inside.

Neji shook his head, "It happens every time he hears the word 'Ramen.'" I chuckled.

We headed inside and ate our ramen quietly; except for Kiba and Naruto. Tobi didn't want to eat. Pity; I thought I could see the guy behind the mask. Oh well.

Naruto and Kiba ate three bowls and the rest of us ate one bowl each. After we were done, we were back on the road.

It was quite a long drive. It wasn't raining much on the borders of Ame; just a drizzle. Today, you could see a teensy bit of sunlight peeping through the thick clouds. I smiled as I stuck my head out of the window.

Hana sighed, "Your head might get cut off."

I scoffed, "That's just a lie told by parents to prevent their kids from sticking their head out of the window." A truck passed us and, dare I say it, it almost took my head with it.

Hana laughed, "Told ya!" I stuck my tongue out at her and leaned back in my seat.

I opened the dashboard, hoping to find a good CD to listen to but I found something else; a dark blue lacy women's underwear.

I gingerly held it up, "Uh . . . what's this?"

Hana looked at it and gasped, "Kiba!"

"It isn't mine!" Kiba protested.

"Well it's either one of you is gay or one of you got kinky with a girl yesterday." I said as I raised an eyebrow.

"Not mine." Sasuke said monotonously.

"Not mine either." Gaara muttered.

"Definitely not mine." Neji said curtly.

"Troublesome, I'm not gay." Shikamaru said lazily.

"Don't look at me!" Kiba said defensively.

There was a brief silence before the boys spoke in union.

"Naruto." They all muttered. Kiba groaned and dialed a number.

"What?" Naruto's voice yelled out. From the background, I could hear AC/DC's 'Back in Black.'

"You wouldn't happen to own a dark blue lacy women's underwear would you?" asked Kiba.

Naruto laughed, "Real funny, man. I'm not gay and I don't have a girlfriend. Why?"

"There's one in the van," I explained. "The guys claimed it's not theirs."

"You sure they're not lying?" said Naruto.

"Shut up!" Kiba yelled as he snapped his phone shut.

"You think its Tsume-san's?" I said quietly. There was an eerie silence but it was broken by Hana, Kiba and me, who started to laugh like crazy.

"Yeah right," I said as I stifled a snicker. "Tsume-san's as hard as a rock and is not into stuff like lacy undergarment."

"I wonder where it came from." Hana mused.

We finally reached the border of Ame. There was a huge stone gate way which had a picture of a raindrop and next to it, a message written in golden letters.

'Thank you for visiting Ame.'

I knew that on the other side, the message was 'Welcome to Ame: The Land of Rain.'

Tobi and Naruto parked next to us and came to join us in the van.

I looked at the back to see Neji with his eyes closed (meditating maybe?), Shikamaru sleeping, Gaara taking out his iPod, Sasuke looking out of the window, Naruto and Tobi playing rock paper scissors and Kiba playing Angry Birds on his phone. Boys will be boys. Hana was reading a text book next to me; being as nerdy as always.

Soon a cab stopped next to us. A woman stepped out and paid the cab driver. The cab drove away and the woman started to walk towards us; it was Kiba's mom.

Tsume had spiky brown hair that was cut messily and boyishly. She had the same eyes as Kiba's; black in color with silted pupils. She also had red triangles drawn on her cheeks and had also applied some purple lipstick. She was wearing a black motorcycle jacket over a brown t-shirt and faded jeans with combat boots.

Hana and I stepped out of the van and went to greet Tsume. She gave us a toothy grin, "There are my girls!"

Hana and I tackled Tsume with a hug while Kiba gingerly got out of the van. Tsume looked at me up and down, "Whoa, Konan you've grown to be a real woman!"

She then looked at Hana and sighed, "Hana, your chest is still as flat as a board."

Hana blushed, "MOM!" I couldn't control my laughter; I was so teasing her later.

Kiba laughed nervously, "Hey mom."

Tsume narrowed her eyes at her son, "And why didn't you call me?"

"I didn't want to disturb you on your day off." Kiba mumbled.

Tsume rolled her eyes, "You chickened out."

She stepped into the van's driver's seat and looked at the boys, "Your folks are pretty ticked off and I'm sure you guys are grounded for a month." The boys groaned silently.

"Oh yeah," said Kiba. He picked up the underwear. "Mom, this isn't your right? It's definitely not ours!"

Tsume saw it and groaned. She took it from him and threw it in the back. She then grabbed her phone and dialed a number.

"GENMA, I TOLD YOU NOT TO GET KINKY IN MY VAN!" Tsume yelled. Whoever answered must have been scared out of his skin.

Tsume listened to the other end of the phone and then yelled again, "YEAH WELL YOUR GIRLFRIEND'S UNDERWEAR IS HERE!"

Tsume listened again and then she snapped, "THE MOMENT WAS RIGHT? WHAT ARE YOU? GAY? YOU ARE SO DEAD!" With that she snapped the phone shut. There was an awkward silence.

"Well," said Hana. "It was nice seeing you mom, guys, but we gotta go."

Tsume hugged us, "Be good, okay?"

"Always." Hana said with a smile.

Kiba and I hugged and Hana ruffled his hair. Hana glared at him, "No more joyrides with the van. It's family."

Kiba sighed, "Fine."

I poked Sasuke's forehead through the window. He glared at me, "What was that for?"

I laughed, "Nothing! You're cute; man, I wish you were my brother!" Sasuke turned away stubbornly.

"See ya!" I yelled as I ran towards Deidara's car, where Hana and Tobi were waiting.

Hana was driving so it wasn't wild. We listened to Metallica on the way back. The college wasn't so quiet anymore when we got back. Tobi went back to the dorm to face his punishment. We went with him since it was our fault.

Deidara was sitting on one of the benches with Itachi and glared at us, "Took you long enough."

"Yeah," I started to say. "Listen, it's our fault Tobi had to use your car so don't blame the kid."

Hana nodded, "All our fault."

Itachi smiled softly, 'Mine too; I told them to find you."

Deidara was out numbered. He sighed, "Don't do it again, un."

Tobi hugged him like crazy, "THANK YOU, SENPAI!"

Deidara was twitching while Tobi danced around. It surely was something to see. Then, I remembered something Tsume said. I looked at Hana, "Hana the ply board!"

Hana understood and blushed as she chased me around the bench. What a crazy day it was . . . and I didn't finish my lyrics. Oh well; I'll think of something in time. Right now, I was having way too much fun.

Me: What do you think?

Sasori: Please leave a feedback.

Me and Sasori: Review! ^_^
