"Friendship is the hardest thing in the world to explain.
It's not something you learn in school.
But if haven't learned the true meaning of friendship,
you really haven't learned anything"
-Muhammad Ali
Chapter 10: Your such a pig!
The large glowing sphere rose slowly into the dull morning sky. Team 10 was already at the gate, preparing to start walking.
"Man I wish Akuseru could come." Zakari sighed, he seemed depressive.
"Well, he's going to have to stay here, because really, he will slow us down." She looked up at the sky and grips the straps on her bag.
"It just doesn't feel right." He spoke quietly, turning to Katsuya.
I know, she thought.
Ryunosuke turns and smiles brightly. "Alright everybody let's head out! No time to delay on that!"
Zakari turns away from her and nods slightly. Ryunosuke turned and began to walk from the village. Keeping a steady page ahead of them. The two followed right behind him.
"Just saying guys.. Don't expect too much action. If anything once we hit the villages edge then we can pick up the pace but I doubt anything major will happen." Ryunosuke-sensei says, clearing his throat after.
"Right."
It was the second day of traveling to Sunagakure. The sun went down and now the sky was dark and filled with stars. Katsuya and the two were still walking. She was admiring the stars just as she does from her bedroom window.
"Wow." She whispered.
"It's beautiful isn't it?" His eyes twinkled.
"Yeah." She says then looked at him then back at the starry sky.
Silently watching from the bushes. She slightly crept around them, waiting.
Zakari said something to Katsuya which made her laugh a lot.
I hope they have food it's been awhile since I've ate, the girl thought and licked her lips.
"Was it that funny?" He asked now laughing himself. She kept laughing and nods.
Where are they going, she silently walked in the forest next to the path moving without a single noise with her nodachi on her side. I wish they would just rest so I can check for their food supplies because I'm starving
"Are we almost there?"
"No."
"Ugh! I'm so tired." She groans and pouts.
"Katsuya we've only been walking for a few hours.." He says casually.
She sweatdrops. "We have been walking for two days idiot! Gosh, sometimes you're dumb as Naruto.."
Well you're flat as Sakura, so, Zakari thought and started laughing.
"Ugh I am not going to wait forever.. I'll just create a little distraction," she said as she started to sigh, lifting two fingers in the air. "Water style: Hidden Mist Jutsu.."
Ryunosuke-sensei stops and turns around, looking at Zakari and Katsuya.
"You two hold here for a second. I'm going to scout ahead for a minute just to see if we are on the proper course. Don't move, rogue ninja tend to travel these paths." He said as he vanished, before the mist began to flood in.
The mist continues to thicken around them as she giggles to herself. "Soon.. I can steal their food!" She giggles almost evilly.
Katsuya looked around in the fog. "I knew something like this was going to happen.."
As the fog thickens to it's fullest she steps out running at Zakari and grabbing his bag off his shoulders. "I'm sorry. Forgive me but a girl gotta eat!"
"The hell are you doing!" He shouts at her then glaring at her.
She suddenly turned into a stump. "Come on! Just share! I don't wanna hurt you to bad," she said as she took her odachi out of it's sheath. The air seeming to buzz with power. "Let's see what masters sword can do."
"What the.. Don't you have friends or something to give you food?" She asked.
"You wouldn't share with a person like me! No one would!" She said as she slammed the sword's hilt into Katsuya. "Im sorry," She quickly jumped back into the forest. "Screw the sword let's just use the jutsu. They seem pretty weak and simple anyway."
She fell back and groaned. The hell you keep saying 'sorry' for.
"You didn't have to do that. You could've asked before you stole my bag.. I would of gave you some food."
"You just wouldn't.. I'm a horrible person." She started to weave hand signs again. "Water Style: Misty Needles!"
The mist around them seemed to clear up as it all floated higher in the air above them.
"Wasn't there three of you?"
"Yeah, but he's not here right now.." Zakari mumbled.
".. How long have you been following us?" Katsuya managed to get up and say.
A short thin girl with long black hair and golden eyes now clearly visible in the woods a hidden mist headband on her head . She had a small band of freckles on her face, as she watched them hands still locked for the jutsu she was going to use.
"Even.. Who are you?" Zakari asked, biting his lip.
"Oki Yumiko, and for a while." She shrugs.
I mean if she was so damn hungry she could of asked but no she wants to be difficult, she thought and glared at Yumiko.
Her hands suddenly change into a different sign, as a clone walks behind placing the odachi to his throat. "I'm a bit of a problem now aren't we?"
"Yeah you are.. Now back the hell up from my friend." She says and frowns.
Yumiko looks at Katsuya then swiftly weaves hand signs. A huge gust of wind came towards her. Katsuya eyes widen and backs up as she shook. There was something else she was seeing.
"K-Katsuya!" Zakari gasps then shouts.
