"Did you here? They said there was a new girl coming." Said Naruto to Sakura.
"I heard she was all alone and her other sensei brought her here." Sakura gossiped.
"Yeah maybe." Ino whispered back.
"I have an announcement to make to the Team 7. We have a new student called Tsuki Shina. Shina, I will do what I did to these students. So, what do you like the most, dislike the most and your goal?" Kakashi asked.
"Well Kakashi-sensei, right now what I like the most is gone, I dislike the past the most, and for my goal… I don't really have one anymore." Shina answered in a straight face.
Wow, this Shina girl went through a lot. Naruto thought.
"Oh and this is Uzamaki Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke, and Haruno Sakura." Kakashi announced. Shina went to stand by Naruto. Naruto grinned at her.
"Isn't Sasuke-kun dreamy? He's my future boyfriend so you wouldn't stand a chance." Sakura said in your face like.
"Hmm." Shina looked at Sasuke. "Sure yeah he's cute but I see in through his skin and he's cold-hearted." Sakura gave her a weird look and the training went as usual.
Later that day during lunch at some ramen shop (I couldn't think of anything) all the teams were there. Odd no one is sitting by Naruto. He is in my team so I'll sit by him. "Hello Naruto!"
"Hey, why are you sitting by me? Why not by Uchiha Sasuke?" Naruto grunted.
"Because I'm not interested in that cold-hearted person anyway." Shina answered.
"Wow, I can't believe you just said that!"
"About what?"
"About Sasuke?"
"I just told you. Hmm, so why are you all alone?"
"Umm, ugh I kinda don't like talking about it."
"That's alright."
"You're the nicest girl I've met so far. Others just call me stupid. Hang on I'll get us some juice." Naruto grabbed some juice and then slipped on the floor. Everything was going wrong. This is it. My first friend and I blew it. Everyone laughed at him. Poor Naruto just blushed.
"Oh my gosh, Naruto are you okay?" Shina asked sympathetically.
"Yeah I'm alright." They sat down and talked and talked away. Naruto grinned.
Thoughts are from Sasuke
Hmm, this is odd. The new girl isn't even staring at me like all the other freaks do. What did I do? And why is she with that dobe? Sasuke questioned. It was hard to actually think because of the "Oh Sasuke-kun" and the "Please Sasuke-kun". I should observe this.
"I just don't get it. I can't believe you're not gaa gaa over Sasuke there." Naruto asked. Indeed, why not?
"I already told you. Yeah, he's cute but I can see he's cold-hearted. All those girls are breaking their hearts because he won't return the love they give. Think of Sakura for instance. She just won't give up. Don't worry Naruto." Shina answered. She does have a point. Interesting, she's smarter than all of these other girls.
"Wait, what do you mean by 'don't worry Naruto'?"
"Oh you should've looked at your face when I said the word Sakura. It's so obvious you got a crush on her!" Shina laughed.
"Am I that easy to read?" Of course.
"Yes." Ha someone who agrees with me.
"That's it you're gonna get it!" Naruto said angrily. 3-2-1 and zoom Sakura ran while Naruto was chasing her.
After the short break Naruto and Shina had to get back to training. "Okay, now we have some extreme training." Kakashi said. "You guys have to battle each other. Sakura against Naruto and Sasuke against Shina."
"Hmmph, this is gonna be easy," The Uchiha said.
"Easy my butt!" Shina stormed.
"Ugh! Not against Naruto! At least I don't have to hurt my Sasuke-kun." Sakura sighed.
"Sakura-chan, I'm not gonna back down on you!" Naruto said angrily.
Sasuke and Shina fought first. Sasuke did his fireball attack but it missed. (Forgot what it's called.)
"Ha my turn! Dragon combo" She did her combo but Sasuke dodged all of them.
"Your aim is horrible!" And he kicked Shina into a tree.
"Haven't anyone tell you not to hit girls. Dragon Fire Wall!" Shina ran around the place forming a square boundary. "Now you can't escape!"
"Why would I escape from a battle like this?" And he tried his fireballs again. They came right toward him and Shina just used her hand to block the fireballs. She succeeded.
"That all ya got? It's already over. Tornado to the Dragons!" She spun around Sasuke. Sasuke was unable to move. A whirlwind of fire rose and Sasuke fainted. The match was over.
"You help Sasuke-kun now!" Sakura cried.
"Fine, fine!" Shina replied. She placed her hands on Sasuke and healed him.
"WOW you can do that!" Naruto said amazed. Shina nodded as Sasuke opened his eyes.
"Now I get it." Sasuke said. "You are part of the dragon tribe. I can tell by the techniques. But they should've died out by now."
"Yeah I'm the only one left. My tribe has been perished by the dreaded villain Orochomaru." Shina said depressingly.
"Orochomaru you…!" Naruto cried.
"That's what I mean by the thing I like the most. My family is gone. My hopes and dreams are gone. Everything is lost." Shina cried. Tears trickled down her cheek. That was like what Itachi did in me. We have more in common than I thought.
"Shina you won't be lonely anymore. I'll be your friend. Please stop crying." Naruto said.
"Oh Naruto I guess you're the only friend I have."
"I'll be your friend!" Sakura shouted.
"If it will get you to stop crying I guess I'll be your friend too." Sasuke said flatly. Why am I doing this again?
"Oh Sasuke-kun! You don't have to come here because I'm here! You'll always be my friend silly!" Sakura said dumbly. Shina's sweat dropped. Boy is she stupid or what?
"Sasuke why'dya wanna be Shina's friend anyway?" Naruto asked.
"Tch, you dobe it's just that I should support anyone who's like me in any way." Sasuke answered.
"Thanks guys, this helps a lot." Shina announced.
Next Day During Lunch:
"So Naruto you never did tell me why you're an outcast." Shina puzzled.
"Uh…" Naruto stammered.
"Lemme guess you have a dark spirit inside your soul." Shina smiled.
"How did you?" Naruto studdered.
"I'm in the dragon tribe. We are available to read souls. It appears you have two souls, one good and one evil. It appears I see the reckless kitsune soul."
"Yeah. My father sacrificed his life sealing a kitsune demon into my body when I was young. Everybody is scared that it will come out and hates me for it. Please still be my friend." Naruto begged.
"Relax, I can defend myself anyway. Tch, beating Sasuke was a peace of cake." Shina bragged. Sasuke heard this and scowled. She did beat me pretty good. No one, not even Naruto did that. Am I weakening? Or is Shina that strong.
