"Don't you dare Shu-!" Gaara glanced up from the book he held in his white-gloved hands, his lips twitching as he fought not to smile, one of his hands slipping into his pocket and tugging his cell out, unlocking his screen and turning the camera on he pressed 'Record'.
"Did you just….scream Ku?" Naruto asked grinning; Gaara turned to his left and laughed softly as Naruto backed away from a fuming Kurama, Shukaku's happy laugh filling the air as he lunged on Kurama once more, a snowball held in his yellow-gloved hands. Pausing and tilting his head Gaara took in the appearances' of his siblings and friend Sasuke, his lips forming a smile as he continued to record, walking around the laughing group -minus Kurama who growled in anger-.
Naruto's cheeks were flushed crimson, his cobalt-blue eyes bright and happy his orange-black jacket open and showing the white t-shirt he wore under it. Sasuke's normally emotionless face was flushed crimson, a smile spread across his lips as he stalked forward and shoved Kurama into the mound of snow he stood on. His black jacket open and showing the dark-blue shirt he wore under it his eyes alight and happy. Shukaku laughed happily, his cheeks flushed crimson as he jumped away from Kurama who reached for him, his tan jacket slipping off his arms as Kurama yanked it off, his gold eyes bright and happy. Kurama snarled and stood, his waist length crimson-hair sticking to his flushed cheeks, he lunged forward and grabbed Naruto and tugged him down, his lips forming a smile, his crimson-eyes bright.
Gaara smiled and whistled, the group pausing and turning to face him, he gestured with his free hand to the darkening sky above them. "Let's get there and back before the next storm hits" He stated quietly, his finger pressing 'Stop' before he slipped his cell back into his pocket, turning and beginning down the road once more he slipped his hands into the pockets of his gray jacket.
The sound of four pairs of feet following him made him turn, in time to a wall of white aimed for him.
"Run!" Naruto shouted, Gaara blinked and stared, the group of four taking off down the road. He blinked once more before his eyes narrowed, his fists clenching and unclenching as he began to count mentally.
Ten…nine…eight…seven…six…five…..four….three…..one…..Turning and taking off, his anger fading as the laughter that filled the air as he drew closer to the running group, he paused when he saw them separate within Konaha Park a few feet ahead of him, his hands slipping from his pockets as he drew closer. His smile slipping into a grin as he began piling snow into his hands, the closet was Shukaku.
He reached forward and slipped the mound of snow down Shukaku's back, nodding at the yelp and jump it caused. He continued forward, grinning when the next he saw was Kurama.
He pilled snow into his hands once more and stalked forward, he expertly slipped the snow down Kurama's back and moved back and to the left, the yelp making his smile widen. Filling his hands once m ore he paused as hushed whispers met his ears.
"Why are we hiding from him?"
"Because he'll dump snow down our shirts!"
"And?"
"That's bad Sasuke, now shush!" Gaara shook his head, filling his right hand and slipping forward he paused only to speak one word.
"Found you, Naruto~" He sang happily, his grin widening further when Naruto spun around with a yelp, Sasuke turned and stepped back, his obsidian eyes darting everywhere. Stepping forward and raising his hands full of snow he watched with amusement as Naruto grabbed Sasuke's hand and turned to run.
He lunged forward and slipped the snow down Sasuke's shirt, stepping back with a grin when he yelps and spins around.
He turns to Naruto and lowers himself to the ground, gathering snow before lunging up and running forward, easily slipping the snow down his shirt, he turns and whistles.
"Now that I've gotten you back, can we go?" He asked, crossing his arms over his chest and waiting for the others to come up.
"I'm getting hungry so yeah, let's go" Naruto stated happily, coming out from the tree he and Sasuke were hidden -and found- with a grin, Gaara smiled and turned making his way out of the park with a smile on his lips.
"No one's coming Amu!" Yuri shouted in annoyance as she found her cousin behind the counter, she frowned and moved behind it to stand before Amu.
Amu sighed and rolled her violet eyes, her lips twitching as she sighed. Yuri frowned and moved forward, pausing when her cousin's knee blocked her advance.
"We just had a snowstorm and you think people will come? Why is the mall even open? We're supposed to have another one!" Amu snarled out, Yuri smiled and reached out to hug her annoyed cousin.
"We need the money; wanna go get some customers with me?" She asked innocently, her topaz eyes widening as her lips jutted out in a mock-puppy dog pout, she yelped when Amu jabbed her cheek gently.
"No. last time I did go I ended up dragging your hyper-ass back here and pinning you to a chair with the bondage ropes just so you wouldn't run a rampage around the mall" Yuri pulled back and sniffed, moving from behind the counter and standing before her grinning cousin.
"Fine then, see if I care…but let me just…" Yuri grinned and turned, quickly slamming a row of jackets away from her and taking off.
"Hey! Yuri!" Amu shouted angrily, Yuri glanced back only to see her cousin running behind her, she grinned and continued forward, cupping her hands around her mouth.
"Come to Hot Topic and Spencer's!" She shouted as she ran up the center stairs, with a shouting Amu at her heels.
Another normal day in Konoha Mall.
"Where do you wanna go to first Sasuke?" Naruto asked curiously, he watched as Kurama moved towards Gaara and Shukaku, a frown on his lips at Shukaku's giggles.
"Hm…why don't we go to H-" He paused when a shout echoed around them.
"Come to Hot Topic and Spencer's!" Naruto blinked and glanced up, his head tilting as he saw two figures running. He poked Sasuke's shoulder and gestured upwards, his lips twitching when he saw Sasuke's eyes widen and then narrow as he watched the two.
"Let's go see what they have!" Shukaku chirped happily, Naruto glanced at his elder brother and laughed, he was dragging a growling Kurama and impassive Gaara forward, blinking as an arm wrapped around his shoulders, Naruto glanced to his left and saw Sasuke smirking.
"I agree, come on dobe" He said softly, turning and moving forward, Naruto followed his shivering body relaxing at the warmth of Sasuke's arm, a smile lightning up his features as they headed towards Hot Topic and Spencer's.
Sasuke paused just outside of Hot Topic, his head tilting as he watched Shukaku drag Gaara and Kurama inside.
"You were wondering why they allow him to drag them?"Naruto asked, Sasuke blinked and glanced to his right, Naruto was grinning.
"Maybe, which sound we see first?" He asked, his arm falling from Naruto's shoulders so he could slip off his dripping jacket.
"Hm...Spencer's, I wanna see if I can find some hair dye" Naruto stated with a grin on his lips, Sasuke blinked and grunted softly when he's pulled forward, Naruto's hand gently tugging him.
"Why? You want to change your hair color?"He asked with a smile, pausing just within Spencer's for a moment before Naruto is leading him forward again.
"No, teme its for Kakashi" Naruto stated casually, his eyes scanning the lower rows, Sasuke watches as a light frown crosses Naruto's lips in concentration.
"So much bondage stuff! Kurama-nii look!"Shukaku's voice filled the store, Sasuke blinked in surprise before the words sunk in and he scowled.
"Ah ha!" Naruto shouted triumphantly, Sasuke glanced down and saw a small neon-pink hair-dye bottle in his hands, he snorted softly.
"Really dobe? Neon-pink?" Naruto stood and gave a nod, Sasuke shrugged his shoulders and turned, only to pause and arch a brow.
"So much….so….." Shukaku blinked his dazed golden eyes, his hands tracing the various items lining them, Kurama nodded, his lips turned up as he mirrored his brother's actions.
"They found the isle already? Gaara would you? I'm starving" Naruto turned and gestured Sasuke to follow, he did but glanced back only to laugh when Gaara slams his book on both Shukaku and Kurama's heads.
"Ow!" Shukaku snarled out.
"Shit!" Kurama shouted.
Sasuke laughed as he followed Naruto to the counter, his pace slowing as he spotted two women, he blinked slowly.
One had waist length lime-green hair tied into a high ponytail, her eyes were a deep shade of topaz, her lips were turned up into a smile, her skin pale but not sickly looking.
The other had shoulder length blonde hair, her eyes were a deep violet, her lips were down.
Sasuke blinked again, they looked familiar from somewhere….
"I'm going to ki-Ah hello, how may I help you?" Amu asked politely, she turned and jabbed Yuri's arm, Yuri blinked and gestured for the two boys to come closer.
"Hello" the spiky-blonde boy said with a smile, his cobalt eyes focusing on Amu before shifting to Yuri, smiling and waving Amu took the bottle and scanned it.
"Your new here, I haven't' seen you before, what are your names?" Yuri asked excitedly, Amu clicked her tongue and dropped the bottle into a small bag, she glanced up when a pale hand came into her line of vision, she took the money and gave the boy back his change, the blonde frowned and turned to the boy.
"Sasuke…I was gonna pay for it" He stated with a frown, Amu watched as the raven haired boy –Sasuke- shrugged his shoulders and took the bag.
"Shut-up" He stated with a smile, the blonde frowned for a moment before smiling.
"Thanks, oh and I'm Naruto." Amu smiled and gestured to her now bouncing cousin.
"This is my cousin Yuri; she's the owner or Hot Topic. My name's Amu" She said with a smile, her eyes focusing on the group of three that followed, her head tilting.
" I'm Sasuke, these are Naruto's brothers. Shukaku, Gaara and Kurama." Amu watched as Sasuke gestured to each, her eyes lingering on Shukaku and Kurama, she glanced to her right and noticed Yuri was watching Gaara.
"Pleasure, Shukaku? Kurama? How would you feel about working here?"Amu asked, watching as they glanced up at her, Kurama opening his mouth only to pause and glance behind him.
"Go ahead and answer." Amu shivered at Gaara's response, his voice was soft yet seemed to carry a hint of…power in the undertone, she watched as both glanced at her and shrugged.
"Right now I work at Konaha Grocery so it'd be a good change…but are you sure you want him?" Kurama pointed towards Shukaku who had turned to face the back again, Amu arched a brow before realization struck, a slow grin crossing her lips.
"It'd be cool to work her Kurama-nii, with all the b-" Amu watched as Gaara slammed his hardcover book on Shukaku's head, Yuri's soft intake of breath caught her attention.
"That's normal actually Yuri-san, my brothers are perverted just like my English and History teachers" Naruto stated with a sigh, Amu shook her head and focused again on her maybe-soon-to-be-co-workers.
"So…you really want us to work for you?" Kurama asked with a raised brow, Amu gave a nod and gestured towards her cousin.
"Yes, and I think Yuri wants Gaara to work for her, how about you Sasuke? Would you be interested?" Amu asked, glancing at the silent duo of Naruto and Sasuke, Amu opened her mouth to repeat her question when Yuri's excited squeal cut her off.
"I've decided! Tomorrow's going to be Yaoi day!" Amu rolled her eyes and blinked in surprise when Kurama's pale hand reached out towards her.
"Yaoi day? Really? Wait…what's yaoi?"Naruto asked quietly, Amu blinked and shook Kurama's hand.
"Sure we'll work here, I'll quit my job and come in…when?" Amu blinked again, she had to stop doing that!
"Do we need a uniform or anything?" Shukaku asked.
"No, no uniform is required and for when you start…I guess once were clear of this snowstorm and after holidays…so the second of January?" She stated watching as Yuri made her way towards Gaara.
"What do you say Gaara, would you?" She asked hopefully, Gaara closed his book and glance up, a shoulder lifting and falling.
"I'll decide over winter break if that's okay. We have to go we still need to go buy food and decide where we're staying" Amu watched as all five turned and bowed before exiting.
Sasuke paused and turned back.
"I'll let you know as well" He stated before stepping out and joining the others.
Amu blinked again, she turned to Yuri and raised a brow.
"I hired two people in one day, wow…"
"See! Told you advertising helps!"Yuri chirped happily, turning and exiting. Amu sighed and smiled, locking up the register and turning the lights off, stepping out of Spencer's she shuts the double glass doors and locks them before turning and standing in front of Hot Topic.
"Let's go home and celebrate" Yuri stated once she locked up, her hair freely spilling down her back now, Amu rolled her eyes and opened her bag, plucking her keys out as they walked towards the main doors, the lights overhead shutting off.
"You just want to get hyper, good thing I have rope just for emergencies"
"Yeah good thing you….Hey! don't threaten me!" Yuri shouted, turning and sticking out her tongue before running towards Amu's white Volvo, Amu rolled her eyes and followed after her cousin.
"Best deal ever." She whispered as she strapped herself in and started the engine, backing up and shifting to drive, she smiled as they made their way away from Konoha Mall, the first beginnings of snow beginning to fall from the darkening sky.
