Hey what's up guys? Gomen, I know I haven't updated in a very long time, but… yea. Just a note: This story is mostly on introductions to three more very special people, and a little background on Kelea and Yuna.
Disclaimer- Sadly, I don't own Naruto.
Another note: Sasuke does journey with Yuna, Kelea, and the other Guardians to Xin Jing, but… well, he doesn't make much of an appearance until later in the story. Another person asked me if Naruto, Sasuke, and Kakashi were going to come in the story again. Well, they do, but not for a while.
Sasuke, Kelea, and Yuna made their way home, walking slowly due to the howling wind and pounding rain. Yuna walked gracefully, elegantly avoiding deep puddles while Kelea and Sasuke splashed their way through them.
"So…" Sasuke said, his voice barely heard over the wind. "Why do you need Kelea and me to come with you?" Yuna eyed the Uchiha Prodigy scornfully.
"Not that it's really any of your business—" Yuna started, but Kelea interrupted her.
"If you're taking us with you, it's our business." The girl's violet eyes glinted in the gray light and the rain slowed to a soft mist. Kelea looked ethereally beautiful, and Sasuke swallowed a painful lump in his throat.
If you let her go on this mission, you might lose her forever… Sasuke blinked in surprise at this new voice in his head. But it's true he realized. Kelea…I can't let you leave me, not here, and not now.
"You're coming too, Uchiha." Yuna's sweet voice cut through Sasuke's thoughts, almost as if she had been reading his mind.
"Hn…" a faint reddening began creeping across Sasuke's cheeks as he turned away from the two girls. Their wet clothes were plastered onto their bodies, accenting their luscious curves nicely.
Kelea reached out and placed a gentle hand on Sasuke's red cheek.
"You're red," she said softly, looking into the boy's dark eyes. "Don't worry…I wont leave you, Sasuke…kun." The affix on his name sounded so beautiful to the Uchiha's ears…
"You're taking Sasuke-san and Kelea-chan to the Village of the Mist," Itachi repeated, staring dumbly at Yuna. The tall, dark-haired girl nodded, playing with the red tips of her bangs.
"Kelea is a Goddess…she needs to come," said Yuna simply.
Itachi pressed further. "And Sasuke…?"
"Moral support for Kelea…she needs him."
"You noticed too?" Itachi rubbed the sides of his head. He, too, had seen his little brother and Kel-chan becoming very close over the years…almost too close.
"Itachi-san, you seem worried," Yuna said softly. She eyed him carefully, and the older Uchiha sighed.
"Just… be careful. They're the only family I have left, Yuna-san."
"Yuna-san?" Kelea sat cross-legged on the guest room bed; it was the room where Yuna was currently staying. "Tell me again what's going on…" the blonde girl smiled sheepishly. "I just can't get it…"
"You are the Goddess of the Waves," Yuna said, watching Kelea intently as the slender girl trembled.
"I-I still can't believe that…Kiso-kun knew…all those years ago—I should have listened!" Kelea cried, tears glistening in her eyes.
"Shh…" Yuna said, placing a fingertip on Kelea's lips. "I'll tell you, tell you everything that Kiso would have said."
"Thank you Yuna," Kelea said quietly. She looked at Yuna solemnly.
"There are other Goddesses… four others to be exact. There is the Goddess of the Waves, you, darling," Yuna said. "There is the Goddess of the Wind, me. The Goddess of the Flames, the Goddess of the Earth, and the Goddess of the Elements."
Kelea's eyes widened. "Y-Yuna…I remember them. The five of us…" she trailed off, and Yuna nodded reassuringly.
"Yes. There was you, Akilah Chichimoto, Hotaru Inui, Akina Hoshi, and me."
Kelea was quieted by Yuna's gentle voice. "I—I remember!" she exclaimed.
"Yes, you remember now. You will go on a journey Kelea," Yuna said, her eyes boring into the girl's violet ones. "You and Sasuke must find the other Guardians."
Sorry to leave you like that… but I didn't really like the way this chapter turned out. So, I just ended it!
Err…yea that chappie sucked. Sorry, sorry! (runs off as people throw rotten tomatoes at me)
-Sigh- well, please review. And for this chappie, I will accept flames, because I HATE THIS CHAPTER (sorry for yelling) o.O I really need some work. Well, please review, and suggestions are welcome. I have the worst writer's block, but I figured that I should at least update ONE of my stories. Anyway... thanks for reading this piece of... garbage (o.O figured I'd keep my language mild) heh... gomen-nasai.
Hikari-chan (umm…a.k.a DSOK, or Hikariwell, Hikari-chan and Hikari are pretty much the same thin—ah I'm just rambling. Sorry, I'll shuttup now.)
