PART 3: MR. GRUMPy-PANtS

"where is she?!" a dark voice yelled.

"umm.. Genmarya-sama, please stay calm.. i havent found her yet.." another voice answered nervously.

"WHAT?! FIND THE BRAT!" the same dark voice yelled louder this time.

"i will do the best i can," the second voice made sure. "father."

"and make SURE that brat never gets out AGAIN!"

"..yes sir." then the second figure walked away. the first person lookes as if he had a migrane and was taking this seriously. He looked really angry too.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"rock, paper, scissors!" both shikamaru and kione said. then they pointed each other with the result.

"eh? what?!" shikamaru was very frustrated as he held up his scissor.

"hah~ i got rock." kione held up her rock proudly with a wide smile.

"shikamaru-san? your not good at this game." she said as she laid down.

"oh. go figure." he said back as he rolled his eyes. then looked up at the sky sitting.

"hmm. i wonder if clouds eatable." she whispered under her breath.

"huh? you say something?" asked shikamaru still looking up.

"yeah. i wonder if i can eat clouds." she said as she closed her eyes.

"oh. well i dont know, i dont care anyways. clouds wouldnt taste like anything so whats the point anyways?" he said.

[snoring]

'huh?' thought shikamaru and looked over. she was sleeping again... very loudly .. again this time.

'i wonder why you sleep so much..' he thought as he laid down still, looking at the sky.

PART 4: RAiN

as shikamaru lyed down on his own bed looking out of his window. it was raining.. real hard.. thats why he ran home after training today.. he thought today was goin to be a good day.. since he promised kione lunch..

he felt guilty cus of the rain.. he havent felt guilty for a long time.. he turned over trying to think of something else.. then he wondered where she was.

'she couldnt be there.. shes not stupid.' he thought as he turned to look at the window again.

'wait.. she can be..' he thought over. then he ran out of his room, then out of the house before his mom could of asked him.

'please dont be there' he thought as he ran out and into an alley. it was kind of dark because of the clouds and the weather.

he came out of the alley and turned and kept going.

'but just in case.' he thought as he was heading up the stairs. he stopped at the top to catch his breath. after he did, he looked up to see a figure.

he ran over. "kione!" when he reached her, she looked up and smiled.she then stood up.

"shi.. shikamaru-san.. you.. came." she then clasped onto the wet, cement floor.

'man.' he got her arm and hung it over his neck.

'what do i do now. oh man.. shes totally blacked out.' he looked at her peaceful face.

'i dont even know where she lives,'

'i cant take her to my house..' thinking of his mom's expression. 'ugh'

'where?' he panicked. he thought real hard too but he couldnt concentrate hard enought because of the weight on his shoulders.

'OH! i know..
