(A/N) Hey everyone, I finished the three omakes. I hope you like them! I made them all in Kore's P.O.V. I thought they would be more understandable this way.

Disclaimer: Haven't done one of these in a while. I do not own Naruto. Naruto would have responded to Hinata's confession if I owned it.

CHAPTER 9

OMAKE 1

"And Naruto was so touched by Senshi's words that he vowed to someday break the curse that plagued their land. Biding his loyal students a fond farewell, Naruto left the village, unaware of the evil ninja who would disrupt Senshi, Kami and Tenshi's plans for peace." I shut The Tale of the Gusty Shinobi with a loud clap.

"Why'd you stop reading?! I wanna know if I come back and rescue my students!" Naruto yelled, sitting up straight. I sighed and used the book to push him back down onto the bed.

"You do realize that you were probably named after the character; that this isn't really you?" I questioned, rolling my eyes amusedly when Naruto gave me a blank look.

"What do you think Sauske; is Naruto the main character of the story or is he delusional?" Both the blond and I watched Sauske carefully, who was laying with his back to us on the opposite side of the bed.

"I don't care about the book. Just go to bed already." Sauske muttered, not even lifting his head to acknowledge us. Naruto and I traded concerned glances. Sauske had been like this for the past two months; moody, irritable, angry, anti-social and depressed. Not necessarily at the same time or in that order. He also had been having nightmares periodically, so at this point all three of us were sharing a bed.

Naruto and I had never had families, not really. Sauske had just lost his whole world, and we were his anchors to his sanity. We didn't know how to treat him, so besides allowing/forcing him to live with us, we treated him the same as we had before. I smiled softly as I climbed into bed between the two boys, distantly recalling the day Sauske had finally come back to school, and the hilarity that had unfolded, despite the dark mood.

~Flashback~

"Why does Teme attract all the girls? What's so great about him?" Naruto complained, sprawled on the grass underneath the swing at the Academy. I giggled lightly from my position on the swing. I had tucked my feet up underneath me to avoid hitting Naruto in the face.

"If you want my fangirls Dobe, you can have them." Sauske groaned. He was sitting behind the tree with his back to it. He had claimed that he wasn't hiding, but I had seen the way he flinched when a particularly loud "Sauske-kun!" pierced through the air.

"Sauske-kun I found you!" I held back a giggle as Naruto howled, the both of us amused at the look of horror on Sauske's face when he saw the pink and platinum blonde hair of his two biggest fans. Sakura Haruno and Ino Yamanaka. I wasn't sure if they were amusing or annoying, but I did know that they had just stopped being friends. I didn't keep up with the Academy's gossip circles, so I knew this by the way they had only just starting fighting over Sauske's non-existent passion for them.

"Well Sauske-kun likes long hair, and my hair is longer than yours!"

"No it's not! Shut up you liar!"

"Billboard-brow!"

"Pig!"

"Forehead!" I couldn't help but snicker, glancing over at a red Sauske. From anger or embarrassment I had no idea, but I did know that he had only said he liked long hair because he was listing reasons why he liked me more than Naruto. The reasons started out reasonably, with me not being loud, obnoxious and interrupting topping the list. It had slowly become to taper down to silly and immature reasons, such as the fact that I had long hair and wasn't obsessed with ramen.

"Sauske-kun! Where are you going?!" The girls cried out, abandoning their argument in favor of chasing a fleeing Sauske. I grinned at the sight before me. The three of us each had different feelings about the fangirls. Sauske wanted to murder them, while Naruto found them amusing. I didn't really know how to feel about the girls, except disappointed that they were acting like fangirls while training to be ninjas.

Sakura and Ino were my favorites of the fangirls, if I had to pick. I had seen Ino stand up to a bully who was picking on a young girl a year or so ago, and I had immediately raised my respect levels for her. She, unlike the other fangirls, sort of understood the fact that Sauske, Naruto and I living together wasn't in that way at all, and helped to deal with everything. I had read that most Yamanakas ended up being psychologists or something; maybe it was in her genetics. Sakura just kind of ignored me and Naruto, unless we looked too cozy with Sauske or were being too annoying, respectively.

I was jolted out of my memory by someone's arm brushing my nose. Squinting my eyes, I saw Sauske pick up The Tale of the Gusty Shinobi and begin reading it by moonlight from the chapter where I had left off. I smiled and closed my eyes, certain that there was hope for Sauske to get better in the future.

OMAKE 2

It was the first snowfall of the year. That meant the temperature had dropped to below freezing. I ran out to Training Ground 7 to check first before running back and hauling the boys out of bed. We three dressed quickly, I because of my excitement, and they because of their competitive nature. Naruto and Sauske raced each other to the training grounds, with me right behind them.

I stood at the edge of the pond and took in the frozen glory. Sitting down on a tree stump, I began to lace up my ice skates. Today would be the first day I would be skating in this world. Before, I was too young to skate, or the pond hasn't frozen over. Konoha had surprisingly mild weather in the winter. Stepping onto the ice, I glided effortlessly, the motions deeply ingrained in my mind from endless years of water walking practice. Speeding up, I planted one foot firmly on the ice and pushed off with the other. I spun into a right twirl, my dark blue wool dress flying around with me. Both the boys had stopped to gape at me.

"Where'd you learn to do that?!" Naruto cried, running to the edge of the pond.

"It's a lot like water walking, only without chakra, and smoother and more slippery." I replied, slowing down and stopping my spinning. Sauske snorted, crossing his arms.

"It can't be that hard to ice skate if you're so good at it." I couldn't help but laugh as I skated over to them. Sauske had been on a competitive streak of late and it had amused Naruto and I to no end. He was comparing himself to us more and more each day. He had been aggressive about it for a while, until I told him he could compete with Naruto on his pranking abilities. Sauske took one look at Naruto having to repaint the entire Academy building and decided to tone his attitude down.

Not that he never helped Naruto and I prank someone. After a teacher failed Naruto on a test just because he didn't know one of the answers, we all joined forces to paint bomb the guy and his entire apartment. Naruto rigged the bomb to go off when the teacher stepped through the door, I got to pick out the red and black colors, and Sauske helped Naruto build the bomb beforehand.

"Korrreeee! Teach me how to ice skate!" I giggled at Naruto's whining. I showed both boys how to push with their feet and take off from the bank. Naruto kept falling, and although he would never admit it, I could tell Sauske was having trouble staying upright as well. After almost an hour, I took pity on the boys and let them off the ice. In retaliation, they tag teamed me during our snowball fight. I couldn't help but laugh when Naruto turned on Sauske by shoving a snowball down his shirt. Sauske tackled Naruto into a snowdrift, buying them.

I thought back to the last time we'd had a three way fight, way back almost a year ago before Sauske's family had been massacred. I still didn't know what had happened to his family, but I wanted to know. I still had no evidence of it having been arranged beforehand, and no way to get it. Sarutobi and I hadn't spoken since my declaration of his treatment of Naruto. I didn't regret what I had said, but I wish I could have handled it with more tact. There was most definitely a better way to have indicated that I knew of the Kyuubi.

I hadn't told Naruto, but I had heavily hinted at it with the bedtime stories and his father and the large amount of chakra I could see radiating off of him. Because of our disagreement, Naruto was the only one going to the monthly meetings with Sarutobi, and I had stopped seeing him weekly for my water controlling. I had gotten better though. I now could hover a ball of water the size of a golfball two feet in the air for a few seconds before losing concentration.

A loud shout pulled me from my musings. I looked up just in time for Sauske to crash into me. Naruto was cackling in delight while Sauske smirked at him. I giggled, pushing him off of me so we could chase Naruto. We all ended up in a pile of tangled limbs and laughter. Our shrieks echoed in the crisp winter air, as we ran around carefree, unaware of the eye that watched us. The figure sat in the trees, his hair as white as the ground below him, watching us for hours until we left.

"I'll kill him." I muttered, stalking through the Academy gates. Sauske followed me, his hands casually shoved into his pockets as he smirked.

"Hn." "I don't care if he's our best friend, I'll still kill him. Tomorrow is the final exam for this year, and what does he do? Skips the entire school day. If he fails this exam, he'll have to repeat the year without us." I said in response to Sauske's comment. He was the top Rookie of the year, a title he took very seriously, while I was the top Kunochi because of my excessive studying and training with the boys. There was no question of if Sauske and I would pass. Naruto, on the other hand, would be lucky if he passed the year. Sauske seemed amused at my anger; he hadn't stopped smirking since class was dismissed for lunch.

"If you kill him he can't take the test." Sauske reasoned. I froze then resumed walking.

"I'll take away his ramen privileges. There's only so much we can do to help him pass, and if he doesn't study he'll fail the written part." I sighed, tugging on a strand of my hair.

"Hn. He's over there. He's with the Ditchers." I snickered slightly at the nickname we had made up for the boys who skipped class with Naruto. I took a deep breath, before walking up to Naruto, who was laying on his back with the others.

"Did you know we have a final exam tomorrow?" I asked pleasantly, my clenched fists the only sign of discomfort at the number of people. Naruto shot upright with a shout of surprise. I tried to ignore the other boys; if I didn't I would get all anti-social and flustered and forget to tell Naruto off.

"Eh he he…no?" Naruto smiled sheepishly, his eyes closed as he rubbed the back of his head. I sighed, the little fight left in me leaving.

"Naruto, you can't keep doing this. I understand if you want to skip class sometimes, but you have the test tomorrow. You have to at least study." Naruto gave a theatric groan before falling back onto the grass. He spread his arms wide and shut his eyes, trying to ignore my presence.

I bit my lip and glanced at the prone forms of Shikamaru, Chouji, Kiba and Akamaru. Akamaru raised his head and sniffed the air. He barked happily, rolling onto his feet and running towards me. I gasped in shock as the puppy leaped towards my face. I gave a quiet squeak as an unfamiliar hand caught him an inch from my face.

"Sorry about Akamaru. He loves to meet new people." I turned pink and looked down at the ground. I could practically hear Sauske smirking at me. He thought it was funny when I got all tongue-tied around new people. Not that Kiba, Shikamaru and Chouji were strangers, I just never really talked to them.

"You can pet him if you want." Kiba took pity on me and put Akamaru on the ground before turning and going back to sit with the boys. Kneeling down, I shakily began to pet Akamaru. I slowly relaxed, a small smile working its way onto my face as he yipped happily at me. Sauske snorted, rolling his eyes before sitting to Naruto's right.

I didn't know the other boys all that well, but they were considered friends by Naruto and Sauske, so I had never minded when the boys ditched me to hang with them. I knew that Shikamaru was smart, Chouji was kind, and Kiba was loud, from the stories Naruto had told me.

Looking up, I saw Naruto telling a story, his hands waving around as he excitedly described everything. Sauske was talking quietly to Shikamaru, while Chouji seemed fascinated with Naruto's story. Kiba interrupted Naruto, causing the two to get into a tackle fight. I watched the scene with a happy smile on my face. If they could make Naruto and Sauske this happy, then I'd try my best to get to know them. I was glad Naruto was finding friends, and that Sauske was opening up to others. I scooped up Akamaru before walking over to the boys. I gave them a shy smile, and Chouji and Shikamaru shifted over, making room for me without hesitation. I sat down, and wasted away the afternoon getting to know my new friends. None of us went back to school that day.

(A/N) So I'd like to address some things that people pointed out or questioned. As mentioned in the chapter above, yes Kore does know about the Kyuubi. Remember, she bought that story book about the Sage of Six Paths and the Tailed Demons. I think the Yondaime "killing" the Kyuubi would be common knowledge around the village, and I hope that Kore would seem to be smart enough to piece together everything. Yes, she meant to try to hurt the Hokage by telling him that he treated Naruto like a demon, but he does not actually treat him like that in this story. Kore was just angry with him, and wanted him to know that she could find out secrets. Also, I don't speak Japanese, so I'm sorry if I offended anyone with Kore's name. It was a misunderstanding, and now I know that Kore does not actually mean ice in Japanese. I still like the name Kore, so I'm going to keep it, but it just won't mean ice. I'll go back and fix any chapters that mentions it.

Sorry to everyone that got mad about her name, and thank you to everyone who reviewed! You guys made my day when I saw how many reviews I'd gotten in the past week! I'll be changing the title of my other story Cerulean, to Humanity's Insanity, when I update it tomorrow. Just so no one gets confused if they try to find a story named Cerulean and can't. And for those who are wondering what the heck happened to the Colorful Lighted Skins thing, how Kore can see chakra, I'll try to fit it into the next chapter, when the actual storyline begins. The next chapter will be set two years in the future, so I tried to spread the omakes between the two years from ages 8 to 10 as fillers before the actual time skip.

(A). 5 Seconds of Summer. I love them almost as much as Maroon 5.

(Q). Who do you think Kore and her parents are? As well as why she can control water and see chakra to some extent. I'm curious to see what you all guess. If anyone gets all three things right or really close to it (parents, water control and chakra seeing), I'll write an omake for them. Their pick.
