Once they reached the training grounds, Emi was the first to notice Kakashi.
"And where the hell have you been!?" She shouted at him, ignoring the two men that were with him. By this point Naruto had joined in with the shouting. Kakashi had a sweat drop running down his forehead as he rubbed the back of his head.
"How disrespectful to talk to your sensei like that." The black haired male spoke, aiming his comment at Emi. Emi turned to look at him, glaring.
"Dad who is this idiot?" She hissed through her teeth. Yamato looked surprised at Kakashi whereas Sai showed no emotion to this but he knew he had messed up.
"This is Yamato-san." He introduced the older and taller of the two males. He had brown hair, black eyes and happuri style forehead protector which in Emi's option looked stupid. "And this is Sai-san." He then introduced the dark haired boy that spoke before. Kakashi gulped as Emi glared daggers at Sai. "Well I'm no longer going to be leader of Team Seven." He added quickly, hoping to take Emi's attention off Sai and it worked.
"Why?" She asked before Naruto could even get a word out. Her head was tilted to the side and her tail swished slightly.
"Because you'll be joining Team Seven and I can't be your team leader as I am your father." He explained and Emi nodded. "Oh and Sai will be joining too." He added quickly, hoping Emi wouldn't pick up on it but he was wrong.
"WHAT!?" She shrieked, again all the males had to cover their eyes.
"Emi-chan! That hurt!" Naruto shouted at her as he rubbed his ears.
"Why do I have to work with that crop top wannabe female idiot!?" She shouted annoyed. Yin and Yang both giggled in the background while Naruto openly laughed at it. Kakashi sighed and looked at Yamato.
"Good luck, she's a handful when she's angry." He told Yamato as he disappeared in a puff of smoke before Yamato could protest him leaving. Yamato sighed and took a deep breath, he should have known Kakashi would have left him to fend on his own.
"Now why don't we get to know each other's abilities?" Yamato suggested with a nervous smile as he looked at Emi. Hopefully he could redirect her attention.
"With pleasure." She hissed as she sent out a sound wave towards Sai, causing him to be slammed into a tree.
"I meant talk not show!" Yamato quickly added as he watched Sai hit the tree. Emi huffed and sat on the grass, crossing her arms over her chest. Yamato would have to ask Kakashi how to work with her, she could be quiet hand full when she was angry it seemed.
Later on Emi found out that she wasn't allowed to go any missions outside of village. It was at this point Yamato wished he had let Kakashi tell her later on. He realised then that Emi wasn't lied back like her father but was hot head. This she must have got from her mother, who ever she was. The two were complete opposites of each other. He had spent the past half an hour trying to calm her down and dodging kunai's. At least it was practise for both of them he thought.
"Kitty calm down." A stoic male voice spoke. They all turned and saw Gaara. Suddenly a kunai flew towards Gaara, his sand quickly shielding him. Emi looked in the direction it came in and saw both Yamato and Sai standing in the defensive position. Emi let her rage take over and ran towards the now two surprised teammates. Gaara sent his sand to stop her, holding her back.
"Let her go!" Yamato shouted, readying to attack. "Why are you here?!"He ordered.
"I was just leaving after being here to build the alliance between Suna and Konoha back up. I came to say goodbye to Emi-chan." He answered with his arms crossed over his chest.
"Then let her go or I'll be forced to attack! That won't be good for the alliance." Yamato ordered again. Gaara shock his head.
"Only if you insist on being beaten to a bloody pulp by Kitty. Especially the dark haired one for throwing the kunai at me." He responded. Yamato gulped and nodded. "Kitty." Gaara called her, Emi looked back at him. "Forget them. Walk with me." He said as the sand slowly let her go. Emi nodded and left with Gaara despite Yamato's protests. Yin and Yang followed closely behind. Yin already didn't like Sai, as for Yang, she was complaining about having to walk everywhere.
"You were never good at controlling your rage." Gaara mused with a small smile as they walked away. Emi laughed and nodded.
"Dad thinks I get it from my mother, he always so laid back." She replied as they moved closer to the village gates. "Racoon, you will visit won't you?" She asked with hopeful eyes. Gaara nodded, he knew it wouldn't be very often, his village wanted him to become their Kazekage.
"Yes, whenever I can and soon you will be able to visit me." He said and took her hand. "Come just outside the gates with me?" He asked and Emi nodded, she felt a little nervous by doing so. Every time she had left the village something bad had happened. "I won't let go." Gaara quickly reassured her as he saw her ear drop and her tail sway nervously. Even Yin and Yang could feel the nervous energy coming off her. The two took one step outside of the gates. Emi looked around, ready for something to happen. "Nothing is going to happen." He told her with a smile.
"Gaara." A male voice spoke behind them. They both looked back to a see a slightly annoyed Kakashi. "She isn't ready yet." He added as he told Emi by the arm.
"And how would you know? No one has tried to see if she can do it." Gaara hissed back at him.
"Racoon please." Emi silenced Gaara and looked at her father. "Let me try?" She asked and Kakashi sighed and nodded. He let her go and Gaara took one more step, letting Emi follow slowly behind. She gripped his hand tightly as she retoured further. "Gaara." She whispered as she froze up. Gaara looked back and looked in the direction she was looking. He saw nothing and looked at Kakashi confused.
"That's were Iruka-kun found her." Kakashi explained quietly and took Emi's hand, pulling her back to the gates. Gaara sighed and followed them back so he could say goodbye.
"Kitty." Emi looked at Gaara as he called her. "I'll come see you soon, I'll find out what I can for you." He hugged her as he spoke. Emi smiled and hugged him tightly.
"Thank you, I'll miss you Racoon." She whispered in his ear before letting her go. Gaara smiled and walked away. Emi held Kakashi's hand and smiled.
"Are you ok?" Kakashi asked concerned once Gaara was out of sight.
"Yeah, I just didn't think it would bother me, that's all." She said with a sigh and headed back towards the village.
"Why don't we go get some ramen with Naruto?" Kakashi asked quickly, Emi turned and looked at him confused and shocked.
"You know you'll end up paying for three ramen just for Naruto, right?" Emi asked, he had never done this before.
"My treat." He said with a smile and wrapped his arm around her shoulders. "Let's find Naruto then." He then added, leading her towards the training ground. Emi knew he must be up to something.
"Naruto!" Kakashi called the blond knucklehead. Naruto turned and smiled before jogging over to them. "Want to come with us to Ramen Ichiraku?" He asked and they both watched the blonde's face light up.
"Yeah!" Naruto shouted happily and started jogging there. Emi laughed as Kakashi sweat dropped. Maybe it wasn't such a good idea.
Once they got there, they ordered their favourites.
"So dad what's the occasion?" Emi asked suspicious.
"Does a father need a reason to treat his daughter and her friend?" He asked with a smile. Naruto looked at them both confused.
"Yes when her friend can eat three bowls of ramen easily." She answered eyeing him with caution.
"Well seeing as we were all shocked by the news of the Team Seven being changed around. I felt it would be nice to do this." He said with a sigh but it still wasn't enough to convince Emi.
"Why didn't you invite Sakura?" She asked hoping to catch him out.
"I thought you two didn't get along?" He answered back trying not to give a triumphant smile.
"True." Emi sighed. "She thinks I'm mad about Sasuke." Emi said while making a gagging sound at her disgust at the thought. They spent the rest of the time chatting lightly about the good times they all had together before leaving for home.
