All Is Well Again
Me: Aight, aight, aight! So, after those heart wrenching confessions, all is well and Hinata and Kurai are getting down to the nitty gritty!
Hina: Nitty Gritty?
Me:...Don't worry about it
Toba: -hits me upside the head- Aren't you forgetting something, Author-sempai!
Me: -holds head- What are you talking about!
Koku: -whispers-
Me: Oh! I have been forgetting about that, haven't I? -clears throat- I do not own anything in this fanfic except OCs and the plot..
Hina: Possibly ^^
Me: On with the story!
/
It was 6:00 a.m. in the Leaf Village. All was calm and peaceful, little genin-to-be were all running to the academy, and other shinobi were relaxing, enjoying the day.
All except two.
"8 trigrams 64 palm guard!"
"Fire Style: Fire Ball Jutsu!"
"Why does she insist on teaching her the Uchiha style!" screamed Sasuke as he was getting quite ticked off.
"Quit bitching." Itachi plainly said laying down.
"Come on! It seems as if you've been slacking Kurai!" Hinata teased.
"We'll see about that!" Kurai shot back and jumped at Hinata.
The two kunoichi were at it like light to dark. Neither of them were letting the other lay a hand on them.
"Hyuuga style: Chakra Destruction Punch!"
"Chakra Dissection Blades!"
Once again, they were raging war. Both of their chakras were slowly depleting due to the jutsus the two were using. Chakra Destruction Punch was chakra-powered punches (A/N: Much like Tsunade's and Sakura's) that could close a great number of chakra points in the area of the punch.
After 3 hours, they finally stopped before the two of them dropped out due to chakra depletion.
Hinata was panting and sweating "Okay... that's all for today. You're actually doing great, Kurai"
Kurai blushed despite her tiredness. "Th-Thank you, Hinata-sama."

Inu walked through the village with Tekii, bored out of his mind since he's already finished his missions. He has helped an old lady with her yard, rescued some spoiled little brat, kept the company of a cat lover, and had to run a few errands here and there. He was going to murder Konohamaru for the cat girl. But, he would just have to wait for that.
"So Tekii. What do you think we should today?"
"Bark!"
"Kurai! Hold up, what are you trying to say!"
Tekii growled in a way basically translating to 'No, you pervert!'. Then he lifted his head in a motion for Inu to look up. When Inu did, Kurai was walking towards them with her hand on head.
"Oh...my bad.. Hey Kurai!" Inu ran toward her along with Tekii.
"Huh?" Kurai looked up to see the dog boy running towards her at nearly break neck speed. She thought they were going to crash into her until somebody grabbed his jacket.
"Hey, hey hey. Slow down and let her actually see you."
"Kouhei! Let me go!"
"Down, boy. Hello Kurai. How have you been?"
"Hello Kouhei. I've been better. Y-You can let go of I-Inu now." Kurai kinda giggled at the way he was struggling.
Kouhei sighed. "Very well." He let Inu drop like a sack of potatoes. "So, where are you headed looking so glum?"
"Yea, Kurai? What's up?"
She started twidling her fingers in a old Hinata-like way. "I've just been thinking alot lately is all."
Inu and Kouhei looked at each other with a worried look on both of their faces. Then Inu had a great idea.
"Hey! Why don't we introduce her to the rest of the gang?"
"Well.. she has only met me, you, Konohamaru, Moegi, Udon, and...that's it. Would you like to meet the others?" Kouhei looked at Kurai with a look of softness.
Kurai blushed at the way he was looking at her. "S-Sure. I'd like to meet them."
"Alright! Let's go!" Inu jumped up and off.
"...I have to ask my mom first.." Kouhei looked on as Inu jumped away.
Kurai giggled and looked at him. "I'll stay till you're ready."
He smiled at her and walked in.
/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/
The two finally caught up with Inu at the training grounds arguing with someone that Kurai didn't know.
"Dog breath, you better get out of my face before I knock you into next week!"
"Whatever, you flat-chested brat!"
"First of all, I have a B cup, coming close to a low C cup! And second of all.." she grabbed him by her favorite spot: his jacket hood."...YOU HAVE YOUR CANINE NERVE CALLING ANYBODY A BRAT, LOSER!"
"I'M NOT A LOSER!"
"CHA!"
The girl threw Inu into a tree and was about to punch the life out of him until Kouhei stopped her.
"You do know he's still your teammate, Haruna."
"Don't remind me!" she backed up and looked at them. "Hello. Who are you?" Haruna asked sweetly to Kurai.
Kurai was caught off guard by the voice changed but replied. "My name's Tenshi Kurai."
"So you're the girl who Udon spent those weeks with. You really are pretty." Haruna smiled.
"Th-Thank you.."
"Yea...unlike you.."
Haruna punched Inu in the stomach and uppercutted him as he fell. Still with a smile on her face facing Kurai.
"Ignore him. My name's Haruna Uchiha. Nice to meet you."
"L-Likewise."
Kouhei smirked at Kurai as she made a new friend. Haruna saw his smile and smirked at him with a face that said 'What have we here?' He looked at her with a look saying 'Shut up.'
"Why don't we go meet the others?"
"Oh, you're introducing her to everyone? I want to come!" Haruna was ecstatic and jumping up and down.
"Sure. Inu you alright?"
Inu basically mumbled and Kouhei took that as a 'Sort of.'
Kouhei sighed and asked Tekii to get his partner.
"So, who we finna go see?" Haruna walked behind Kouhei and Kurai as Tekii caught up with Inu mumbling still.
"We're going to the Yamanaka Flower Shop, of course."
/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/
"Come on, Okina! I'm hungry!"
"Oh shut it, Suji! We both are!"
"Both of you shut up! We have to close shop, or Ayame-san will kill us!"
"The three of you are arguing as always."
The three turned around to see Haruna standing there with her hand on her hip. Kouhei, Inu and Tekii, and some girl they didn't know was behind her.
"Oh shut it, Hebi!"
"What did you call me, Shika Niku!
"Why you.."
Okina and Suji grabbed both girls and held them back from killing eachother.
"Haruna, have you already forgotten why we're here?" Kouhei rubbed his head.
"Huh? Oh, yea.." she straightened herself up when Suji let her go. "Okina, Suji, Shika Niku, this is Kurai." she pointed to Kurai who looked a bit worried.
"H-Hello.."
"Hi! I'm Okina!" Okina was a heavy-set ninja who had red, long, flowing hair. He was currently wearing a black T-shirt with a blue chuunin vest and black nin pants. He also had on his nin sandals. His vest strangely had ham on them...
"Yea, and I'm Suji!" Suji was wearing the same thing as Okina, except his clothes were red and his vest was black. His hair was a reddish-blonde hair in a low ponytail. His vest had steak on it...
"Um...you two.." Kurai started.
"We're twins!" they said together.
"And my name is NOT Shika Niku." she glared at Haruna. "My name's Hiensou." Hiensou had dirty blonde hair styled in two long pigtails on the top of her head with a bang covering her right eye. She had on a pink opened-up-at-the-bottom jacket with a fishnet shirt underneath with a salmon-colored shirt. Her shoes were knee-high black boots. A lot like Haruna's.
"Nice to meet you all." Kurai smiled as usual.
"So, what are you guys doing anyway?" Okina asked them.
"We're introducing Kurai to everybody." Haruna replied.
"Well, wish we could join you, but the two boys overthere are getting antsy." Hiensou pointed to Okina and Suji.
"Sure thing." Kouhei said.
Inu started getting up, but was still staggering like a drunkard.
"What happened to him?" Suji asked concerned.
"H-He c-called Haruna-san a br-brat.." Kurai said.
"Oooooohhhhh.." Okina and Suji exclaimed together.
"That explains it.." Hiensou raised her brow and turned around. "Well, we got to get going. See ya'll later!"
"See ya!"
/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/
As Kouhei, Inu, Tekii, Haruna, and Kurai continued walking, Inu walked back to where Kouhei was.
"So.." Inu started looking smug.
"So what?" Kouhei looked at Inu kind of annoyed by his tone.
"You like Kurai?" Inu looked straight at Kouhei.
Kouhei almost stumbled at the question and looked at Inu with a look of disbelief. "Wh-Wh-What.."
"Ah! Don't want to hear it! You're stuttering. That's all I need to know." Inu walked off, leaving Kouhei blushing.
"Wh-Who are we going to meet now?" Kurai came up beside Kouhei with a look of innocence. "Huh? Are you ok?" She touched his cheek right where he was blushing.
Kouhei almost froze in place at her touch but fought it off. "I-I'm fine. We're going to go meet the 'Weapon Mistress and Master' of the village. Warning: they're also twins." Kouhei regained his posture and informed Kurai.
"O-Okay. Thanks for the warning."
"Wait a minute! We have to go see the crazy trick and her overprotective brother!" Inu exclaimed while Tekii had a look of fear on his face.
"Who the HELL are you calling a trick!"
Inu froze and turned slowly around. Standing there was a girl and a boy.
The girl had two messy brown Chinese buns with hair laying down to her shoulders. She had on a green long-sleeved-button-up shirt with black hakama-like pants on with sandals. On her back was a huge scroll that almost looked like it was too big for her.
The boy had long brown hair that was in a French Braid. He wore a white long-sleeved-button-up shirt with grey nin-pants and black boots. He also had small scrolls connected to his sleeves.
And they both were glaring at Inu.
"I-I-I-I didn't mean..." Inu tried to say something.
The girl pulled out a giant mace from the scroll on her back and swung it at his head. Inu dropped down only to have to roll out the way of spiked bombs thrown by the boy.
"I'm sorry!"
The boy grabbed Inu by his hair and yanked him up to his face. "Don't you DARE talk about my sister!"
"SORRY!"
"Tensai!"
The boy looked over at Kouhei as he stopped midstrike. Inu's face almost met up with spiked brass knuckles.
"We'd like to introduce you to Kurai." Kouhei motioned to a once again worried looking Kurai.
"H-Hello.." she was quite nervous.
"Excuse me. I apologize. I'm Tensai Hyuuga. And this is my sister, Heiki Hyuuga." he bowed a bit.
"Hi! Nice to meet ya!"
"Same here." Kurai bowed a little in response to Tensai.
"Sorry about the rude meeting. My brother and I are on our way to meet up with our Aunt." Heiki put her hand on her left hip.
"Is your aunt Hinata-sama?" Kurai asked curiously.
"That's her." Tensai flipped some of his hair out of his face. "Our aunt doesn't exactly like us hanging around her. She said that we would be introduced to enemies that she wouldn't want us to see."
"Yea, and she doesn't want us to be introduced to the 'nightmares that we wouldn't want to dream'." Heiki scratched her head. "I'm worried for her."
"Sh-She's strong. She's a Hyuuga, right?" Kurai reassured them with a smile.
Tensai smirked, much to everyones surprise. "Yea, and the Hyuuga clan is the strongest in the Leaf."
Heiki looked at Tensai surprised and then smiled at Kurai. 'Thank you.' she mouthed.
Kurai smiled sweetly.
Kouhei looked on and thought to hisself 'She does look cute.. WAIT! WHAT AM I THINKING!' He shook his head trying to clear his thoughts.
"Hey, why don't we go see Kettei?" Inu suggested.
"We would if we knew where she was. She's always on the move."
"She's walking around the village." Tensai stated.
"Well, that's obvious. We just said she's on..." Haruna started.
"On her hands." Tensai butted in.
Kurai looked confused at this. "H-Huh?"
"How do you know that, brother?" Heiki asked.
Tensai pointed behind them wiht a look of annoyance on his face. They turned around and saw a ear-length, dark green hair having girl wearing a green hooded tank top with green nin-pants and black boots...walking on her hands.
"12th lap...gotta keep...going..." she panting as she kept walking.
"Kettei?"
Kettei looked up and saw everyone looking at her with confused looks.
"Darn it!" Kettei dropped down to her feet and looked at the gang. "Hey guys! What's up?" She started playing with her hair.
"We wanted you to meet Kurai." Haruna said smiling.
Kettei looked at Kurai and waved. "Hi there! Would you like to train with me?"
"Uuhhh.."
"She's just got done training with Hinata-san. I don't think she's fully recovered to do anything else." Kouhei rescued Kurai from what he knew was coming.
"The youth fires never burn out! Besides, one should always train on their strength as well! Not just their chakra!" Kettei glared at Kouhei.
"I-It's fine. Sure, I'd love to train with you, Kettei-san. But I woun't be able to be at my full strength." Kurai accepted the offer.
"Alright!" Kettei was fired up.
"Good luck, Kurai-chan." Tensai stated before walking off.
In everyone's mind, they said 'Did he just say 'chan'!'
"What in the world is going on here?"
Everyone turned around to see a boy walking around with a younger boy.
The boy had blonde hair with blonde streaks in a messy ponytail. He had on a black jacket that nwas opened up to reveal a red shirt with the Sand symbol on it. He also had on black nin pants with black nin shoes.
The younger boy had short, earlobe-length messy brown hair with a bit of black hear and there. He had on a white t-shirt with brown pants and a nin-pack across his thigh with brown sandals.
"Hey! Osama! Odayakana!" Inu waved his hand over at the two.
The two looked over and the younger one smiled and ran over to them.
"Hi, Inu!" he jumped up and down, then stopped and looked at Kurai. "...Who's the pretty lady?" He looked at Inu, pointing at Kurai.
"Osama, it's not nice to point." the older boy pushed his hand down softly and looked up. "I apologize for his actions. I'm Odayakana. But you can call me Egao."
Kurai blushed and smiled. "H-Hello Egao-san. H-Hi Osama-san. I'm Kurai."
"Can I call you Kanari?" Osama asked innocently.
"K-K-Kanari?" Kurai stuttered. "Uuhh...sure. I don't mind." she smiled softly at him, which made him kinda squel like a girl. But only for a minute.
"Yay! Friendship powers the fires even more!" Kettei jumped up and down and grabbed Kurai's hand. "We must go and start training. I'm fired up!" she ran off, dragging Kurai with her.
"...She has no idea of what she has gotten into..." Kouhei looked on.
