Me: Well, Right on to another chapter. I'm not going to both-
Yura: You forgot to answer a review… well actually I'd like to know too… DOESOROCHIMARU LIKE ME IN A GUY GIRL WAY?
Me: Ask him yourself.
Yura: NO!
Sasuke: Why?
Kabuto: Scared?
Yura: NO!
Orochimaru: hmmm… Yura scared… that never happens unless it's about me… were you speaking of me?
Me: Yes, actually we were, thanks for showing up just on time. (Sarcastically said of course) And you just decided to leave your house and join my crowd then?
Orochimaru: Yes, I did.
KONOHA NINJAS: (Evil death glare)
Yura: um… err… we'll talk later… Iro-Ao, write the story!
Me: Oh… and don't forget Orochimaru's orders!
/order/
/obey/
It's quite simple really.
Hi ho silver! AWAY!
INFORMATION
Yura lay curled up on the grass, only a few feet from Nekoharu. She was absolutely silent, except for the few odd deep breaths she would take. Haru sat staring at the sky. He felt ashamed, embarrassed and aggravated at the same time. He had kissed her. He was sure she had wanted it, and yet as he made his move the first thing she did was sit there, then she pushed him off and slapped him across the face. He was mortified. He was so sure that it was what she wanted, yet, she had pushed him off of her. Why? Why? There were many answers he could come up with, but none of them seemed to explain why she now was totally ignoring him, and trying fruitlessly to return to her vacant body.
'I'm sorry… I- I just thought that was what you wanted. The mind rarely lies. I'm sorry.'
'Oh,' Yura replied quietly. She didn't even shift a muscle. Nekoharu sat there waiting for her to say more. When she didn't, he returned his gaze to the dark sky.
(Kami. You'd think she'd realize I was telling the truth… what is she anyway, for me to misread her thoughts… or did I just miss something, and put it together wrong... what if…)
'It wasn't your fault so stop blaming yourself. I should be the one who is sorry.' Yura said out to the shadows. 'I- I- I'm not sure that we should do that… it doesn't seem right… It's wrong… and you should know that. When I leave, since I know I will, I don't want an emotional connection to the demon in my mind.'
Her words were harsh, and likewise spoken in a cold tone. Haru couldn't help but retort in anger. 'Wrong? Hah, have you ever met a demon who did things 'right'? You wanted it too; otherwise I wouldn't have felt the emotion from you. Maybe you are nothing but a weak girl, who is easily, preyed upon by older men and demons.' Haru stood quickly and stalked over to her bent body and stood there staring down at her face, waiting for a reaction. And this time he got one.
Yura used her low position to kick out Haru's legs from under him. As he fell, she stood up and backed up about a meter, giving herself time to prepare for a counter attack. Haru rose, glaring at her with his slitted eyes, the effect was not as imposing as he would have liked.
She laughed harshly. 'Haru, you truly are a demon' she paused, considering her words. 'I can't believe I almost fell in love with you. You, Haru, are nothing but an overgrown, selfish, lap cat.'
'Lap cat… you're calling me a lap cat?' Haru moved closer, his own white chakra surrounding him in a haze.
'Yes, I am. Lap. Cat.'
'That was a really strange picnic… and to think they can act so calm when war is on their borders is beyond me.' Neomei thought to herself as she lay on her hotel bed. Her plain room was only lit by the single lamp beside her bed. The walls were peeling, and the carpet was stained. Not the nicest place, but the cheapest.
She sighed, and got up. Stretching, she walked to the tiny bathroom. She changed, brushed her teeth, and walked back out to the bedroom. Just as she lay down Orochimaru contacted her.
/Neomei./
/Yes, Orochimaru-sama/
/Give me a full report of today. /
/Where would you like me to begin/
/As soon as you reached the gate. Go From there. Not a single detail is to be left out, even if it was only you getting groceries. /
/When I arrived at the gate, the two chuunin guards stopped me and asked for my passport. They looked it over and allowed me into the village without a second look. From there, I wandered town looking for a cheap central hotel. I found one, near the hokage tower, and was able to rent a room. The host was gruff, but not a ninja. I left my things in my room, and decided to get lunch, while spotting any ninja. I ordered a bowl of ramen from a small shop, and there were two ninja at the counter. The younger one named Naruto, and an older one, named Jiraiya. He- /
/Naruto-kun… Jiraiya… I know of both… continue. /
/Jiraiya bought my ramen for me and I left. Figuring the best place
to spot ninja would be at a weapons store, I went shopping. When I was in one store, I was approached by two local girls by the names of Sakura and Tenten. Both introduced me to their boyfriends and invited me to a picnic. /
/Boyfriends? Who were they/
/Rock Lee, and Hyuuga Neji. /
From there, she told of the picnic and the ninja she met, and he ordered her to continue gathering information on their numbers.
/Neomei… has Yura been fighting/
/No. There has not been a single presence against my mind./
/Good./
'Argh' Haru yelled as he was sent flying backwards again.
'I can't believe you searched my mind! Did it dawn on you that I might be upset by that? Did you even think to care? YOU LIVE IN MY MIND, HAVE SOME FRIKING CONSIDERATION!'
'Consideration? I'm a demon, demons don't have consideration!'
'Make some.' Yura commanded as she moved to punch him in the stomach. Instead of dodging, Nekoharu grabbed her wrist and pulled her into him. Wrapping his other arm around her waist, Nekoharu drew her into a fierce kiss.
Yura froze in his arms, fighting the waves of shock and pleasure that swept over her body. She melted into his touch, her body responding to his every move. Haru had her, and she didn't plan on leaving.
Me: Ok… that – well that sucked… I was on a one-way track to terrible chapter town I think…
Yura: Frankly I enjoyed it.
Others: But it took too long.
Me: sigh I know…
Well anyways! MUST ABSOLUTLY THANK CHOCOLATE PANDA!
You being the only one who even added me to their alert list… not even my FRIENDS did that (hint hint Jess!) Thanks! .
