A/N: GUUUYYYSSS! I DID ITT! Lmfao XD sorry for the wait, so much to do, high school :P
Chappy _? BEGIN!
Nagihiko sighed and rolled his eyes and Hioshi placed an eraser between the door and the wall, balancing it so that it would hit the one who opened the door.
"Heheheh..." Hioshi smirked as he climbed down from the stool, glancing occasionally at the clock.
Kanashi rolled her eyes at him. "Very original, Ramen-for-brains." she stuck pocky into her mouth, biting it with more force then was necessary.
"Well, it's funny! 'Sides dad said that it worked pretty well on Kakashi-obasan soooo." he finished lamely, as if that was all of the proof he needed.
"Whatever, Noodle Breath." Kanashi muttered, sighing.
"Watch it, eggplant." Hioshi snickered, glancing at the clock again.
"Both of you shut up, please." Nagihiko's cool voice rang through the room, sounding exasperated. "You two argue like an old married couple."
"S-shut up!" Hioshi turned a bright red, while Kanashi continued to roll her eyes.
There was a small sigh from the door, and Hioshi turned in time to see the eraser fly at his face.
"Troublesome..." their sensei muttered, shaking his head. "Naruto Junior indeed, Ino was right.."
"Yes!" Hioshi shot up, face aglow.
"Sit down and shut up, please." the jounin grumbled, sighing again. "I am your new sensei, Nara Shikamaru. And the only new face here is that." He pointed at Nagihiko, looking slightly curious. "Your name, kid?"
"Ha! He called you a kid!" Hioshi giggled, totally manly.
"Better then Dobe-junior.."
"Hey, shut it, nobody asked you teme!"
"Actually there weren't any questions involved in the first place." Kanashi smirked at Hioshi, who was annoyed beyond belief.
"T-teme! Eggplant!"
"Reeaall creative, baka. At least Nagihiko thought of eggplant himself."
"Both of you, shut it, or you'll get complaints from me to your parents." Shikamaru sighed again.
"I'm sorry about them, sir." Nagihiko muttered, rolling his eyes at the pair. "My name is Nagihiko Deva. I am..." He paused there, pondering his age. How long had it been since he was created? He had forgotten the fake age that he had told Hioshi, and so, he created a new one. "I'm 11 years old."
"Hold it!" Hioshi frowned at Nagihiko, obviously confused. "When we met your were 10, and that was like 2 years ago!"
"That was only a month ago, Hioshi and erm...I have a late birthday...?" Nagihiko was sure that only the new sensei had caught the question within his voice.
Hioshi opened his mouth to speak, before he was cut off by Shikmaru.
"No matter, pleasure to meet you. I'd heard you'd been staying with Naruto." Shikamaru nodded slightly, before motioning for them to follow him out.
Nagihiko and Kanashi both stood at the same time, doing so, and Hioshi clumsily ran to catch up to them.
"We have a mission tomorrow, you guys, just to see how you do." Shikamaru's droning, bored voice informed them. "For now, we're heading to the roof to talk."
"The roof? Why the-" Nagihiko began, and glared as he was cut off by Hioshi's excited yelp.
"Just like my dad and Kakashi-obasan!"
Shikamaru's momentary exasperated look and sigh was lost by the sound of the door sliding open. "Here we-" he stopped short, pushing the three genin behind him back.
"I was wondering when you would come up. I figured that you were more like him than that Neji. Although, I was indeed waiting for him as well." cynical laughter rang throughout the cold air, as Nagihiko's visible eye widened then narrowed almost instantly. He stepped forwards, calling out, ignoring Hioshi's gasp and his new sensei's warning.
"You. I thought we told you to leave us alone." Nagihiko's voice was as cold as the mysterious shadow before them.
"You are my child, my creation, I do as I please. Of course, I'll let you play along for a while with our Konoha friends." The man's voice had a dark humor to it, as if he knew something nobody else did. He waved his hand before his hooded face, beginning to vanish as he did so. "Ja-ne. (Later.)"
Just as he began to disappear, the shadows stretched and managed to tear at a piece of the man's cloak hem. Shikamaru swore loudly, before walking to where their adversary vanished and crouched, picking the cloth up.
"...I wish for Nagihiko to remain behind. You two may run along home." Shikamaru's intense gaze studied the others before focusing back upon Nagihiko.
Hioshi pouted and grumbled. "Wha? Why can't I stay, he's my best friend!"
"Go." One burning look was all that it took to send Hioshi on his way, Kanashi behind him.
Hioshi began to kick at stray rocks on the streets, mumbling about how unfair life was, until he yelped as he was yanked into a dark alley.
"DON'T KILL ME!" Hioshi shrieked before a familiar voice hissed in his ear.
"Baka, shut up and listen to me!" Kanashi growled, continuing to pull Hioshi back towards the Academy.
They crept along, hidden in the shadows, Kanashi extremely quiet and stealthy, having started shinobi training with her father at a very young age. Hioshi did the same, attempting to mimic the Uchiha's movements, but ultimately failing, resulting in an exasperated eyeroll in his direction.
"Keep up, baka!" They had made it to the shrubbery of the roof.
"...understand who you're up against." Nagihiko's voice floated in and out of hearing range, as did Shikamaru's.
"...think I do. We faced...battle once before."
"But not like this! ...war, and that's exactly...He wants to...and he failed last time. He can't afford to...again. And there are less...way now."
"...very well."
Hioshi would have gasped as the other two neared their hiding spot if it hadn't been for Kanashi's hand, which quickly attached itself to his mouth.
"Shhh.."
