Chapter 13
"Oi Amaya get back into bed your still sick," cried Hana running over and shuffling me away
"Can I not just sit on the sofa or in the garden?" I asked, she sighed and nodded her head then whistled, a large wolf looking dog trotted through from the main garden and sat at Hana's feet.
"Alright fine, you can sit and wait until Kiba returns from training but he stays with you," she said pointing to the dog/wolf "His name is Hoshi," she said "Because of the star shape on his chest," she said pointing to the dog/wolfs chest "He is going to stay with you to make sure your okay, if you need anything just tell Hoshi and he'll get it or get me," she explained I nodded sadly and hobbled out to the garden. Hoshi followed obediently behind me and I sat down on the bench under Sakura Trees. He sat down besides me and curled into a ball trying to sleep. I gently started to hum a song I briefly remember my mother singing. I never learnt the words but it was soft and a beautiful song. I looked over and saw Hoshi sleeping already and smiled. I must have dozed off because the next thing I knew I was moving in someone's arms. I blinked and looked up. I saw Kiba deep in thought as he was slowly walking. He was looking up at the stars for some reason and didn't see me move. I lifted my hand and cupped his cheek. He almost dropped me when his head snapped back to me.
"You should have woken me," I said quietly smiling at him, he nodded his head but smiled as well
"You looked…….I dunno…at peace and……happy," he said quietly as well, I blushed brightly at this and turned away. He smirked and chuckled lightly, I looked over the side and saw Hoshi walking next to Akamaru slowly and looking up at me. I nodded at him and he barked softly.
"He seems to like you," said Kiba
"I don't see why, I'm not part of your clan," I replied
"Doesn't matter, you live with us, don't you?" he said shrugging his shoulders nonchalantly. I stuck my tongue out at him childishly and crossed my arms. "Oh give over, besides it's time for dinner," he added, I nodded as we went inside the dining room. Tsume and Hana were already sitting down.
"Evening everyone," I said bowing my head from Kiba's arms.
"Good evening Amaya, how is your leg?" asked Tsume
"It's been good, I tried healing it but I think the poison was too strong for it," I replied sadly
"What have you been doing today? I'd hardly Hana allowed you to train," she laughed
"Well I sat outside before falling asleep; Hoshi was looking over me today. He's so cute," I said as Kiba put me down in front of the table and sat next to me.
"How was training Kiba?" asked Hana "I thought Akamaru was eager to get out yesterday," she laughed,
"Itadakimasu!" I said loudly before digging into the food. I hadn't eaten lunch and wasn't hungry enough to eat breakfast so I didn't eat the whole day.
"Wow relax, its only rice," laughed Kiba, I shrugged and carried on eating. After 10 minutes we finished eating and had to start cleaning. I huffed and puffed as I stood up. I made my way to the kitchen to shove Hana and Tsume away so I could clean. I mean dude, I had to pay of this debt somehow, why not the cleaning of the house.
"Iie, go to bed," said Hana
"No I'm doing it so you go away," I replied
"No!"
"Yes!" I shouted
"Fine," she shouted, she threw the towel onto the counter and stormed out the room only to have Kiba come through staring at her. I ignored him and got to work.
"Let me guess you threatened her?" he asked
"Iie, not yet though, but I will," I replied he stood up and walked over and grabbed the towel and started drying the dishes and putting them away. I sighed annoyed and just carried on cleaning. Akamaru trotted in and followed by Hoshi.
"I told you he likes you," muttered Kiba
"Nani? Jealous?" I asked laughing
"Iie, but he was the first dog I remember having," he replied, as we finished we left the kitchen with the two dogs trailing,
"Do they always follow you?" I asked turning again
"No but I presume he's just doing it because they want to," he said, I shook my head and limped back to my room. I changed quickly and climbed into bed. Just as I was about to doze off there was a scratching at the door and it creaked open and I rolled and saw Hoshi clambering onto my bed. I laughed and smiled. He lay next to me and went to sleep. I smiled and again and fell asleep.
In the morning I was woken by Hoshi trampling my sore leg trying to move.
"Itai!" I yelped as he fell off the bed and thumped onto the floor. He whimpered and I realised what happened.
"Eh? AH! Gomen, Hoshi," I said sticking my hand out for him to sniff. He whimpered again and climbed onto the bed again and curled up to sleep. I sighed and stood then hobbled to have a shower and get changed. Once I came out in my usual attire and attached my Shinobi bag Hana knocked on the door.
"Can I come in, I have something you can use today," she called
"Hai," I said sitting on the bed again, she came in holding two crutches.
"Here, Tsunade sent Kotetsu-kun round with them," she said, I nodded as she passed them over, "Come Hoshi," she commanded, he just blinked up at Hana and didn't follow "Hoshi now," she ordered again then she sighed "It seems he wants to stay with you, looks like you got a new friend," she said laughing, I turned to Hoshi as he stood. I followed Hana and turned to Hoshi.
"Come on buddy," I called he barked and followed quickly. Outside the room I grabbed a bento box and hurried to where Kiba and Akamaru were waiting.
"What's Hoshi doing with us?" he asked
"He's my buddy, Hana said he could stay with me, it seems he doesn't follow others orders but mine," I replied looking into the distance then starting to walk, the others followed when we there was the sound of someone yelling and round the corner came Izumo and Kotetsu crashing into me and knocking me down. I cried out and grabbed my leg as Izumo landed on my stomach. He rolled off quickly as Kiba kicked Kotetsu off my leg.
"What the hell do you think your doing running into her!" yelled Kiba again as Akamaru and Hoshi growled at him, Hoshi leaned over for me to use as support.
"Ah, gomen Amaya-san," said Izumo
"You knocked her over on her leg" shouted Kiba again
"Relax Kiba-kun, it's fine, I'm alright," I said quietly finally managing to get myself leaning heavily on my two crutches "I'm still living. Thank you by the way Kotetsu for bringing these round," I said smiling before hobbling away "Come on Hoshi, Akamaru, Kiba," I called hobbling away. I saw Kiba glare at them once more then run after me. I just smiled at his concern. We carried on walking through the park and Kiba happened not to be talking to me.
"What's the matter?" I said sighing at him
"Nothing," he replied
"Fine," I said angrily marching or attempting to with crutches, he huffed himself and walked off with Akamaru following him. Hmf what do I need him for…..He's so annoying and demanding! Ugh...what do I even care about it….I'm leaving soon anyway. I blinked again and carried on into the forest by the gates.
"How pathetic you know that," said a familiar voice behind me, I turned and saw Itachi and Kisame standing behind me. Kisame was the one to speak.
"What for? Actually being human?" I shouted at them, Hoshi got into a defensive position in front of me,
"That and why the mutt?" asked Kisame,
"Shut it! I don't care, leave me alone!" I shouted again backing away and whistling to Hoshi to move. We moved back when I felt a hand grab my shoulder roughly and jerk me away, I turned and saw Deidara behind me.
"What do you all want?" I said darkly looking at each one slowly.
"Your to come back," said Itachi
"No!" I screamed slumping slightly against the crutches; I felt something hard hit my back throwing me forwards into a tree. I tried to block but it only hurt more and more. I turned and saw Kisame lower his foot. I slumped against the tree and started to cry. I hated them. I hated them the minute I left that place. I will always hate them.
"Aw she's crying," mocked Deidara. I growled and stood up limping on my leg. As I looked forward again there was a flash and they disappeared. I felt a sickening blow to my back, legs and arms. I heard a few cracks and breaks. Howling Hoshi was thrown into a tree and out cold. I felt Kisame's sword come down o my neck and start draining me. They were like play school bullies. I was the victim. I slowly closed my eyes listening to the silent sound of them fading away and Hoshi whimpering.
