I take is back.. this chapter is a little boring compared to how it played in my head lol xD!


CHAPTER 13


I stare. He sends me a glare. I give him a dirty look, and flip him the duck. His glare hardens. Before he can move, I wrap my arms around him, and squeeze him until he coughs.

"Wh-" He coughs again, "What are you doing" My arms are wrapped over his arms, holding them down, and a smirk appears on my face.

"Sasu-channnnn~!" He wants to kill me. "Kumi-chan is going to train me for the next month.. I don't wanna~" He attempts to bring his arms up, and break our contact. I squeeze him harder.

"Your going to learn a lightning attack before the final exam ya know.." I mumble into his cloths. He stops struggling and looks down at me.

"How-" A poof sounds behind us.

"Rynai." I look up to see Kumiko glaring down at me, she nods to Sasuke. "An Uchiha..?" The question in her voice was barely audible as she spun on her heel and headed to training ground 4. "Rynai, lets go. Let go of the Uchiha." I stick my tongue out at her and let Sasuke go.

"See ya Sasu-chan!" His gaze isn't on me. He's staring intently at Kumiko.

"Who is that?" He asks. I shrug.

" Kumiko, my new BFF and training partner... She.. trained with Itachi.. I think.." He tenses up, but despite that I skip to catch up with Kumiko and ignore his later question of 'how do you know'.

"Hey.. Kumiko.." She stops and turns to me, her arms crossed and an unfriendly expression is on her face. "You.. Know Sasuke, don't you?" Kumiko nods, then turns to continue to Training ground 4 as she says,

"Sasuke.. Is nothing but a child. He has been wronged by a rose and thus he carries it's thorn in fury.." I raise an eye brow at her sudden poetic nature but keep quiet. I kick up some dirt with my bandaged feet as we pass through the chain-linked fence that surrounds the grounds. Ugh.. I can't take it anymore.

"A MAN WAS JUST EATEN BY AN ELEPHANT!" I holler at the top of my lungs, effectivly startleing Kumiko into a defense position. Then, by bursting out laughing, I earn a punch in the chest. "Kumi-chan! Ouch!" A sadistic grin passes over her expression as she bites into her thumb. Wait, what?

She.. high fives the ground and a large summoning circle spreads out a couple meters. With a loud 'poof' a wolf, about the size of a pony, appears. It is pure white with molten silver eyes. The only tainted part of it's fur is the black feathering that rides up it's forearms. A raven 'poof's' in soon after, with onyx black feathers, but it's eyes are hidden from me. Not only that.. this raven is the size of a small child... it's HUGE! If I didn't know better I would think the wolf has wings.

"Ahh.. Akuno, Kaji my friends!" Kumiko's sadistic smile grows as she hugs the wolf's muzzle, and stroked the birds chest feathers. The bird's eyes flash open at the touch, reveling dark, but beautiful silver irises and slit-like pupils.

These must be the two that brought her to the Naruto world.. I sweat drop. She never mentioned how HUGE they were though..


Kumiko's POV


An almost sadistic smirk crosses my lips as Kaji, an unusually large Raven, climbs up my arm and onto my right shoulder as Akuno lets me use her head as an arm rest for my left. I wave toward Rynai, signaling to the two to introduce themselves.

"Aku- " My smirk disappears slightly as Akuno is cut off by an annoying caw. Sure, she's always been timid and fears meeting new people... but still Kaji's attitude-

"Hey you stupid little brat!" He squawks in my ear, making me wince in annoyance. "My name is Kaji! I'm sure you've herd of me from Kuko plenty!" Rynai stares at the bird before 'he' begins to shake, and hides 'his' eyes beneath 'his' bloody chocolate bangs. "What? Is she crying now?". Time stops. What?


Rynai POV


I hide my eyes under my bangs to hide my oncoming laughter. Kuko? As in... Someone who quotes the funniest of funny quotes to draw attention away from the hatred of their own name? What type of nickname is that? Ready to burst, I hear Kaji caw;

"What? Is she crying now?" My laughter halts, and I glare at the bird from under my bangs. Is it possible the oversized chicken bases it's assumptions on it's instinct? My body involuntarily stiffens as Kumiko's gaze burns into my head.

"S-s-s-he?" I studder. Unable to hold the shock of the question. Sure, I would have continued to laugh as hard as I could.. but.. Shit..

As if on instinct, I run up the nearest tree and sit, all cool like.. (Like when Sasuke was in the tree during the Gaara scene lol).

"Yeah.." I scratch the back of my head in nervousness as Kumiko scowls.

"Your female?" I nod, not caring anymore if she knew.

"Biologically, yes." Kumiko starts to tap her foot impatiently as I sigh. "My real name is.." I growl, realizing this isn't my usual character. So I take a deep breath and stare down at the 3. "My real name is Airyn Sarutobi. Sarutobi, meaning 'monkey jump' is written with two kanji; Saru is the character for 'monkey' and tobi is the character for jump,Airyn as in strong, or as in mountain strong. I grew up without a mother, and my father abandoned me when I was a baby. From the age 6 to 12 I lived in a forest on the outskirts of Japan with a random group of orphans who lived in trees. " I laugh, "Weird right? My name means monkey jump and I grew up in a huge tree!" I pause to take a breathe.. then wonder if I should continue. Whatever, might as well get it over with!"When I was 13 years old I was 'adopted' by my only living relative, my Uncle Leo, but because of his job he would often leave, so he would often leave me with his friend Jake, whom I usually called my dad."

"So your name matches your personality hmm..?" I shake my head, and frown.

"When I was 10 I was diagnosed with terminal cancer, or a tumor in my throat. That's how my uncle, my favorite uncle Leo, eventually found me." Kumiko's foot stopped tapping, and a look of, what is that pity or shock? In her eyes. I growl. "Look! Kumiko! Jeez don't get your panties in a bunch alrighty?" I flash when a flash of orange shoots past the trees a little north from us, and involuntarily tense.


SOMEWHERE NORTH (lol) Still Rynai POV


Yet again, an annoyed blond man and a orange swirly masked man sit in the tree's, Upwind from the recently summoned Raven and Wolf.

"I don't get it, un." The blond states, as if talking to himself. "WHY AM I PAIRED WITH YOU!" He 'whisper screams' and points an accusing finger at the constantly bouncing swirly masked man. He presses his index fingers to his temples, clearly pissed at our favorite Tobi.

"Tobi is a good-" Tobi is suddenly cut off as I crash through a nearby tree, and slam, nose first, into his swirly orange mask. The first thing that pops into my head is this.

"Hey Tobi, your mask looks like a lollipop, does it taste like one?" I lick the mask, and scowl. "Nope, tastes like pine needles, gross!" I head butt Tobi in the face, knocking him to the ground. Before Deidara can even react to my comment, I stare at him and say the only thing I can really recall my Uncle Leo saying to me, that made me laugh.

"One bright day in the middle of the night two dead boys got up to fight. Back to back they faced each other, drew their swords and shot each other. Then a deaf policeman heard the noise and drew his gun and stabbed the boys. If you don't believe this lie is true, ask the blind man, he saw it too. And if you don't believe the blind, ask the deaf he heard it fine." I crack up as Deidara stares at me like a lost a screw.

"Kumiko, look who we got here! A couple of Akatsuki!" I grin as Kumiko approaches us, her summons gone.

"Ahh.. Deidara and.." She pauses.

"Tobi." I continue for her.

"Deidara and Tobi of the Akatsuki.." She glares at Tobi, who is now up and bouncing around again.

"Tobi is a good boy! Why did you head-butt Tobi so?" Now it's my turn to glare at him.

"Why are you acting like your not?" (That didn't make sense, but who cares) Tobi.. looks(?) at Kumiko with killing intent.

"Ahh, Tobi-chan! Deidara-chan! You guys should run..-" Before I finish my warning, Tobi and Deidara as flying away.. with one of many of Kumiko's fire jutsu's. I laugh. Oh the IRONY!


Everybody LOVES TO FIGHT WHEN IM WRITING GR!
