They had been travailing for a few days and had finally made it to the land of waves. Kakashi and squad seven decided to stay with them cause they wouldn't have anything better to do and squad eight needed the help. Katana had been a lot better after telling them about what was on her mind and was talking to them more. Sakura wasn't as bad as she was those few days ago and was being a lot nicer cause she was talking to them more. Tazuna was relieved to be back home and alive. All in all everyone way getting along really well but Sakura was still being annoying over Kiba and Katana kissing.
"Sakura, will you just get over it already cause you don't need to know!" Katana growled slapping her forehead. "Ow! I really gotta stop doing that." she muttered the last part.
"But you two-"
"Just give it a rest before I really do have to knock myself out and throw myself over the edge of the bridge just to not listen to you go on about something that doesn't need to be told," Katana huffed with a growl and stopped running and started walking throw the streets of the village with the others and looked at all the shop things. They walked all the way throw until they came to a house near the water. Tazuna opened the door and walked in and they followed slowly.
"Tazuna, your home!" a woman called running in and hugged the man. He laughed and hugged her back.
"Yes and thanks to these ninja from the leaf village I'm alive." he said and turned to them. Naruto was looking around in amusement, Sasuke just looked at the house, Sakura was studying the house, Kaya fell to the ground a lay there with Katana and Hinata, Kiba and Shino stood there watching everyone and Kakashi and Kurenai went over to the women.
"Hello," Kurenai greeted
"Hello," she replied
"I'm Kurenai Yuhi, I'm one of the Jounin from the leaf village." she said and nodded.
"It's nice to meet you, Kurenai," Kurenai-sensei nudged Kakashi-sensei.
"I'm Kakashi Hatake," he said and rubbed his arm. Katana took one look at him and started laughing. Kakashi looked back and looked at her.
"Nice to meet you, Kakashi and who are these young ones?" she asked turning to the Genin and Katana shut her mouth.
"These are two of our best squads from the leaf village all though they can be a hand full." Kurenai-sensei said and Katana started at her, Kurenai-sensei just smiled back.
"Ah... and what are their names?"
"Um... Kakashi you can go first," Kurenai-sensei said and smiled at him. Kakashi-sensei sighed.
"This is Sakura Haruno, Sasuke Uchiha, Naruto Uzumaki and Kaya Haruta." he said and they nodded as he said their names.
"Alright... This is Hinata Hyuga, Kiba Inuzuka and Akamaru, Shino Aburame and Katana Kasuma." she sighed and they all nodded.
"Well it's nice to meet you all, I'm Tsunami and this is my son Inari," she said as a young boy walked into the room. He looked at them and walked off again. "Inari,"
"Yes?"
"Aren't you going to say hello?"
"Hello," he said and turned back to them and Katana smiled.
"Hay, Nice to meet you Inari. I'm Katana," she said and walked over to him. "I know you probably don't really want to know me but I would love to get to know you." she smiled and stood up again and turned to his mother. "It's a pleaser to meet you Tsunami and I'm happy to meet you." she said and bowed a little with a smile.
"It is a pleaser to meet you too, Katana." she smiled and turned to Inari, who was just looking up and Katana like she was crazy. "Inari,"
"It's alright, I'm use to the weird looks off people," Katana said and turned back to Inari and nodded then turned and walked out the door.
"Is she always like that?" Tsunami asked very confused
"Not always, she can be a pain but she's a good girl you don't need to worry about that." Kurenai said and looked out the door as Katana turned the corner and went to the dock near there and sat down. She turned back to the others and Kaya got up and walked out nodding to Tsunami then left.
"What go it in to them?" Tazuna asked tripping over his own feet and hit the ground. Hinata and Sakura went over and helped him up then walked away.
"I don't think anything is wrong with them," Kakashi said catching on what was going on. "They just change moods a lot." he rubbed the back of his head. The Genin looked at each other and left to find something to do.
"Katana are you alright?" Kaya asked sitting next to her.
"Yeah, I'm fine just thinking." Katana said looking up at Kaya with a smile. "But I am a little worried about Inari, it's like he's just not in it with everything and I plain to find out why," she said and pushed herself off the dock into the water and went under for a few moments and came back up to see them all there but just started swimming around.
"What are you doing?" Sasuke asked sitting down.
"What does it look like I'm doing? Swimming," Katana said and went under again.
"Why?"
"Cause I'm bored, this is fun and it's hot."
"Okay, you just get more weird as the days go by," Kaya said and shook her head.
"What and you don't? You can't deny it so give it up." Katana smiled poking her tongue out at her. Kaya grinned and jumped in after Katana and they started chasing each other around. Hinata and Sakura shook their heads and sat down watching the two of them go crazy.
"Are you sure your even ninja's?" Kakashi asked from behind them with a grin.
"Yep! Just a ninja still in the Academy!" Katana laughed pushing Kaya under and jumped out of the water, shaking her hair. "It's fun around here plus I don't have to put up with Pervy-sensei all day!" she laughed and Kaya pulled her back in. "Hay!" Katana said when she came back up and glared at Kaya.
"Yes? Oh did I pull you in? Sorry," she laughed and started to climb out.
"No you don't!" Katana said and pulled Kaya under with her.
"I see what you mean, she must be a hand full for you Kurenai,"
"You bet she is and she can be worse then this but at least she's happy," Kurenai-sensei sighed watching the two girls play around like children still in the Academy. "It's a good thing they didn't get put on the same squad."
"That's not funny, Kurenai-sensei!" Katana whined grabbing the edge of the dock as well as Kaya and pounted. Kiba tried not to laugh and helped Katana out of the water and Sasuke helped Kaya. They got up and walked over to Kurenai-sensei and Kakashi-sensei with unnoticed grins on their faces.
"Yes girls?" Kakashi-sensei asked as Kaya and Katana walked behind him and Kurenai-sensei.
"Have you ever went swimming Kakashi-sensei?" Kaya asked him and he nodded.
"Katana, what are you doing?" Kurenai-sensei asked as Katana pushed her to the edge of the dock.
"Nothing," she said and her and Kaya pushed Kakashi-sensei and Kurenai-sensei in to the water and fell back laughing their heads off at them. Hinata and Sakura looked at their sensei's and started laughing as well.
"What's funny?" Tazuna asked walking over.
"Kakashi-sensei and Kurenai-sensei," Katana laughed taking a deep breath. "Went splash into the water!" she cracked up laughing even more just at thinking about it.
"What?" Tazuna asked very confused.
"They pushed us in," Kurenai-sensei said from her floating position.
"Oh," he said and looked at the two laughing girls. "Did they now," Katana and Kaya stoped laughing and looked up at him, jumping to their feet right away and ran behind Kiba and Sasuke.
"What the hell are you hiding behind us for?" Sasuke asked and Kaya poked her tongue out at him. Sasuke sighed and picked her up and walked to the edge of the dock.
"Hay, what are you doing, Sasuke, put me down," she said grabbing his neck.
"Putting you where you were," he smiled and started letting go of Kaya.
"No way, if I go you come with me." Kaya said and grabbed on tighter.
"Really?" Sasuke let her go and she pulled him in with her when he tried to stay standing and water went all over everyone.
"KAYA!"
"Yes?" Kaya asked popping her head up from under the water and Sasuke came up pushing her under and she pushed him off her and come up. "Oh, sorry." she said and smiled.
"That's one in," Kakashi-sensei said and turned back to Katana and she was sitting up in the closet tree near her and looked down at him.
"I'm not going in there again and you can't make me!" she poked her tongue out and climbed another branch when Kiba got to her.
"I'm not climbing this tree to get you, Katana," he puffed and sat there.
"Good cause I'm not going down."
"You will." he said to himself and stood up. He forest his Chakra and waited till Katana decided to climb up again and ran up the tree getting above her and pulled her up and hugged her to him so she couldn't run.
"Damn it!" Katana growled and glared at him. "I hate you, Kiba!"
"I know, and so do I." he smiled and jumped off the tree. Katana clinched onto him and he landed on the dock at the very edge with half his foot over the edge, Katana grinned and moved toward the water sending them both into it and right next to Kaya and Sasuke. Kakashi-sensei and Kurenai-sensei were a bit away from them but still got splashed again.
"Katana!" Kaya growled and glared at her.
"Too bad for you, you did that to them but I was in the tree. Haha!" Katana laughed and went under the water and swam off somewhere.
"Where the hell did she go, now?" Kaya growled but spun around when something went under the water and what she saw was Katana leaning on Kakashi-sensei and Kurenai-sensei pushing them under, when Kakashi-sensei went to grab her she jumped on Kurenai-sensei's back and held on to her neck with her legs around her waist like she was getting a piggyback.
"Wee!" Katana cheered as Kurenai-sensei tried to get Katana off her back. "You know, you Jounin aren't so bad to annoy but it's more fun annoying the hell out of Pervy-sensei, haha!" Katana laughed and got off Kurenai-sensei's back and jumped on the Kiba's and he didn't do anything but Katana was happy just there.
"Pervy-sensei, who's that?" Kakashi-sensei asked Katana in a questioning way. Katana smiled.
"Pervy-sensei, Ebasu-sensei. He's a perv and it's fun to annoy him and everyone else around," she smiled and looked over Kiba's head and him in the eyes. "And it's fun hanging of your back cause you don't do anything." she laughed and clung on even tighter like she wasn't going to get off him. Kiba sighed and went to the dock pulling himself and Katana out of the water, when he got out he sat on the dock and fell backwards to lay on his back. "Ow, Kiba!" Katana growled and glared at him. "I hate you so much, you meanie!" she said and tightened her grip on his neck and waist. He grabbed her arms around his neck and tried pulling them off.
"Damn you have a tight grip," he said to her and she smiled and loosened it a bit so he could breathe.
"I know... but it hurts." she smirked and just lay there but her legs got tired so she let go of his stomach and lay them on ether side of him but still kept a grip around his neck so he couldn't run away.
"Damn it," he muttered and tried pulling her arms off his neck.
"I don't want to let go!" Katana whined and wrapped her legs around him again. Kiba sighed and tried to stand up.
"Katana, get off me,"
"No." she grumbled and held tighter.
"Kaya, will you get off of me!" Sasuke growled trying to get Kaya to let go of his neck so he could get out of the water.
"Nope," Kaya said in a very childish voice.
"Are you insane?"
"You bet I am but I'm not the only one," she grinned at looked at Katana still holding Kiba to the ground with him lying onto top her trying to get free of her grip around his neck and stomach.
"I see what you mean,," Sasuke shook his head and got out of the water with Kaya dangling off his back.
"So what are we meant to be doing here again?" Katana asked getting a little bored.
"Helping Tazuna,"
"Yeah, and we have, haven't we?"
"Now, now Katana no need to be so rude," Kurenai-sensei calmly said and Katana stared at her.
"Well what else do I have to do? And I'm not being rude, he started it in the first place."
"What are you on, Katana?" Naruto asked walking over.
"What aren't I on, Naruto?"
"I don't know, that's why I asked,"
"Right, I'm not on anything but you, I'm not so sure about you," she joked and lightly hit his arm after letting go of Kiba and he jumped up and ran.
"Uh…. Right," he said and backed up to Kiba. "What's up with her?"
"How should I know?"
"I don't know," Naruto said and went quiet.
"Well if you have nothing interesting for me to do then I'm going to look around the village," Katana said walking off. "Later." And left in a flash.
"Is it safe for her to be going anywhere by herself?" Shino asked looking at Kurenai-sensei.
"I don't know but she will be fine for the day." She walked off and back to Tazuna's house with Kakashi-sensei, Tazuna, Shino, Hinata, Sakura, Naruto, Sasuke and Kiba. Kaya stood back and waited for them to leave before running off after Katana into the village to find her.
Katana was looking at all the shops and at everything almost crashing into a few things like shops and buildings but missed them. She walked all the way to the entrance to the village and looked around for something to do for a few hours or so. There was nothing for her to do so she walked out of the village and to the bridge that was getting rebuilt. She walked around the edge of it and looked over the edge of it at the water underneath. One of the men working on it walked over and tapped her on the shoulder she turned her head.
"What are you doing here, young one?"
"I'm bored and have nothing to do, except annoy everyone but there's no-one to annoy except Kakashi-sensei and Kurenai-sensei but meh," she said and continued walking around the edge of it looking really bored.
"Well, why not help while you're here?"
"And what would I be doing? Cutting something up or what?" Katana sarcastically retorted.
"If you want you can help me,"
"And what are you doing?"
"I need to carry this stuff over to the end of the bridge down there," he said looking to the end of the bridge.
"Sure, I'll help," Katana said and got off the edge of the railing and walked with the man and carried what she could.
Kaya was looking for Katana when she finally saw her she disappeared again but went towards the bridge and Kaya decided not to follow thinking Katana needed time to be alone and think over things. She walked around and came to a Ramen shop and seeing as it was way over time for her to eat she went in and took a seat.
"Can I please get a bowl of Ramen," Kaya said in a sweet and innocent voice. The man turned around and nodded and in about a minute Kaya had a bowl of freshly made Ramen in front of her. She thanked the man and got the chopsticks and started to eat her Ramen, then payed for it and left to go back to Tazuna's house and back to the others to tell them where Katana was if they needed her help or anything but she took her time cause she had all day to waist.
