Mizuki Hoshigaki falls from the ceiling and onto the floor. He groans softly before more children and some animals come. They all cheer, "The Seme-Uke Games: Children-Side!"

Spotlight on: Ongakuhana!

The housing arrangement for the Seme-Uke Games was a bit odd. Seme Estate was on one side of the street, Uke Manor was on the other side. And next to the latter was a nice and comfy little bed-and-breakfast style house. It was in this house that the children of the competitors (along with their care-takers) were staying.

5:30 AM

Behind the house that the kids of the contestants of the Seme-Uke Games were staying, there was a small garden. It was a beautiful specimen of flowers and a small pool. Currently, if you were to go back there, you would have heard singing. It was from a young voice but it was still beautiful enough that a blue-bird was drawn to it.

The bird landed on a vibrant, green bush and began tweeting along with the singing. The voice was so entrancing that the blue-bird didn't even notice the bush rustling. Abruptly, green-tinted hand shot out of the bush and grabbed the small bird.

Frightened tweets and squawks could be heard, as well as the frantic flapping of wings before there was a chomping noise.

All was still.

There were a few more crunches before the bush rustled again. Out of it walked a young girl with green-tinted skin, bright orange eyes, long green hair with flower-buds in it, and a sharp, red smile. She giggled before coughing a bit, a blue feather fluttering from her mouth to the ground.

Hey! Hey~! Oh, are you listening? Good! Heh heh! My name's Ongakuhana and I'm five years-old! My Mama is Tobi Uchiha and he's a really good boy and my Papa is Zetsu. Papa's really handsome and good at hunting. I just don't like eating some of the things he does.

He eats people...

..I like birds.

Blue birds have a type of calm flavor, like blueberry pie. And doves (which are so good, by the way) kind of taste like vanilla ice-cream, and...

Oh wait... I'm not talking about myself, am I? Whoops!

Um... I live with everyone in a big... mansion in Kirigakure! We are part of an evil organization called the Akatsuki that wants to take over the world and... Mm...

This is boring. I want to talk about my friends! All of the children of the Akatsuki are my friends. Me and Hun are really good friends because when my Papa wants me to eat some of his 'special' food, I can just sneak it to Hun and he'll eat it. He seems to like it well enough.

I'm on good terms with everyone else and... Um... Well...

My best, best friend is Kira-chan. She's so pretty, with that pale skin and those cute magenta eyes. Not to mention that she always has her hair in those adorable pig-tails. So kawaii!

But, I think that anytime I try to get near her, she gets all scared because her face turns pink and she starts shivering... Like when we were on a mission together to get a map for Pein-sama (who really needs to cheer up)...

"Two ice-creams, please!" Ongakuhana smiled as she walked up to the ice-cream vendor. The two girls were currently in a city by the name of Celadon and were trying to blend in with the locals before they snuck into the mayor's office.

"I'll have a chocolate-chip and-- Kira-chan!" The albino girl was sitting on the bench a while's away. She looked up,

"Hai?"

"What flavor do you want?"

"Oh, um..." Kira bit her lip a bit before stating, "Do they have cherry or strawberry?"

"They have both!"

"Oh, okay... Cherry then!" Ongakuhana placed the order and soon, after paying the ice-cream vendor, she walked over to the bench with two ice-cream cones.

"Here you go. Nothing more unnoticeable than two girls eating ice cream, right?" The plant-girl smiled. Kira took it, smiling,

"Thank you."

The two girls simply ate their ice cream in peace, trying to create an innocent enough facade before they went on towards their main goal. Rather, Ongakuhana happily ate her ice cream and Kira was watching her. The thing that seemed to draw Kira in the most were Ongakuhana's teeth. They were very sharp (she had seen them at work on more than one occasion) and very white despite all the stuff she ate. Kira was still in her thoughts when the green-haired girl looked over and stated,

"Ne... Kira-chan. Your ice cream's melting." Kira blinked out of her stupor and whined,

"Oh no! Wha? Wait a minute!", as she tried to salvage the mess. Ongakuhana giggled and took the hand that was holding the cherry ice cream cone. "What are you..?" 'Oh dear Jashin...' Kira's face darkened into a cherry blush as she saw what was happening.

Ongakuhana was slowly lapping the mess from Kira's sticky fingers, eyes closed as she let out simple sounds as she worked. Kira's face brightened even more and her heart started beating erratically. When she was done, Ongakuhana smiled at Kira.

"There! All better!" With a shudder, Kira fell over and passed out. "What?! Kira-chan, wake up! Oh man, we're going to be late for our mission time. What did I do wrong? I didn't mean to scare you Kira-chan! Kira-chan!"

See what I mean? I must be some sort of a freak... And that's saying something when you're in the Akatsuki.

"Papa!" Ongakuhana cheered as she walked downstairs and saw her father in the main room. Zetsu smiled and caught his daughter as she jumped into his arms.

"My musical-flower... Have they been taking care of you in here?" The dark half of Zetsu asked. Ongakuhana merely giggled, used to her Papa's different sides.

"Hai! But where's Mama?" Zetsu sighed,

"Mama is... trying to appease the evil weasel-god so that he won't get his ears yelled off again."

"Run faster, damn it!" Itachi yelled before harshly blowing into a whistle as he forced all the ukes into running laps around Uke Manor.

"Ve... I don't know who's worse: Itachi or Doitsu!" N. Italy cried.

"Oh..." Ongakuhana hummed. "Okay! Did you bring me food?" Zetsu smiled and held up a bag, suspiciously dripping blood. The plant-girl took a sniff before whining,

"But I wanted my food~!"

"Ongakuhana... You have to learn how to eat both." The darker-half of Zetsu stated. Soon, however, the fly-trap put his daughter down and said, "I'll be back to check up on you later after today's event... Okay?" Ongakuhana nodded and waved 'bye' as her papa left. When she was sure that he was gone, she called out,

"Hun!" The dog-boy immediately ran over, panting like a puppy. He had smelled the 'care-package' from the kitchen and was more than excited. "Here you go!" Ongakuhana tossed the bag to Hun, who quickly thanked her before digging into the bloody mess.

"Chew your food, Hun." Mizuki stated as he walked through the area to get the newspaper.

Sometimes I wish that me and Kira had a relationship like Hun and Mizuki. They don't have those awkward moments but you can tell that they care for each other. Maybe if I try a little harder...

After a while, Ongakuhana walked into the main room. And who should be in there, sitting on the couch, but the albino girl who she had been looking for. 'Don't blow this...' Ongakuhana thought as she slowly walked over. She sat down and spoke up, "Hi Kira-chan." The albino girl softly replied,

"Oh! Hi Ongakuhana. How are you?" The plant-girl smiled,

'So far, so good...', she thought before she tried hugging Kira and saying, "Come on! Let's go play outside; hide and seek like we always do!" It was at that moment that Kira's face turned red and she pulled away and ran off, saying,

"I, um... Have something to do! I'll see you later!"

When Ongakuhana was all alone, she sighed before walking to the backyard by herself.

I wish Kira wasn't so scared of me.
