By the way, I restarted Kitten Curse for those that didn't know. Chapter 1 is pretty much the same but with more details. Chapter two ends very differently.
thank you for so many reviews, favorites and alerts/follows so far ^^
~Normal P.O.V~
My head felt heavy and the spot where I had fallen still hurt a lot. It might have been from the pain but I couldn't open my eyes so everything remained dark. However, even though I could not see anything, I could hear a bunch of voices talking around me. Tightening my eyes at the throbbing pain, I recalled my last memory before I blacked out. It was of a silver haired man that tried to attack me. Shark jumped in front of me protectively but also got wet from the running water. Seconds later Shark wasn't a dog anymore but instead a blue skinned, and naked man. After that I had fainted.
My sense of touch also seemed to return. Not only could I feel myself sitting on a wooden chair but I could not move my arms. That was because I felt something thick and rough wrapped around my arms. Even though I wasn't the smartest person it didn't mean I was a moron. I knew I was tied up to the chair. For what or why, I didn't know though.
"You actually think you scare me?! Don't make me laugh!" I could hear Hikari yelling and laughing from somewhere near by. I winced at the volume and guessed she was sitting right next to me.
"Try living alone as a child alone, in a place where you can get kidnapped, killed or rapped. All without anyone blinking twice! Comes on, give me your best shot!" Hikari yelled again and I couldn't help but notice the serious tone in her voice. It was responded by an amused laugh.
"Hah! This bitch is great!" A familiar, male voice laughed. "I expect nothing else from a fellow Jashinist." the voice spoke again, sounding extremely happy. I recognized the voice as the man that tried to kill me before Shark... or whoever he really is, tried to kill me.
"Hidan, shut up." another male voice snapped. This one I didn't recognized but it sounded angry.
Even though my head was still throbbing painfully, I attempted to open my eyes to see what was going on. I managed to get them opened but my vision wasn't much better. In fact, for the first few seconds, my vision was still black before it slowly regained colors. Soon colors and odd shapes was all I could see and my head hurt worse than before. Maybe I opened my eyes too soon.
"Well, it looks like our host is finally awake." A young, yet deep and calm, male voice said from somewhere near boy. Turning my head in the direction of the voice, all I saw was a blur of red and a skin color I couldn't make out.
The longer I looked at the red headed person, the more my head hurt. Yet, as I attempted to ignore the pain, the more my vision began to clear. It was still very blurry, but it cleared enough so I could see that a boy with red hair was sitting on a couch. If that wasn't all, he was wearing nothing but a towel, looked to be around my age, and was looking at me. I couldn't see the details in his face very well, but I got a familiar feeling with how he was staring at me.
"Hey, Ashlen, you alright?" I heard Hikari ask from beside me. After attempting to look over at her, and failing, I gave up trying to hold my head up and left it hang so I'd be looking at the ground.
'What on Earth is going on here? Who are all these people and why did Shark and Ghost turn into men? Wait, does this mean the rest of my dogs transformed into people as well?' I thought to myself, only to wince in the throbbing pain. Now not only was it throbbing from my fall, but it was hurting from trying to understand just what was going on.
~Third Person P.O.V/A little earlier~
Running to where they heard the scream, the Akatsuki members were shocked when they saw Hidan standing above a fainted Hikari, wearing only a towel. When they had heard Hidan's laughing voice, followed by a loud thud, they didn't know what to think. His choice of words confused all of them and, convinced he was attacking the trainer, they had rushed to bathroom Hidan was in. The last thing any of the ninjas expected to see was the foul mouthed ninja standing partly naked in the room.
Ashlen, however, was very surprised and confused when she heard the male voice shout out. She couldn't remember letting a man into her house and it wasn't possible to enter the house without her noticing. So, after seeing Autumn and Wolfy run from her room, Ashlen followed them to the source of the laughing man. The very last thing Ashlen expected was to be lead to the bathroom Hikari was using, seeing the girl on the floor and a naked, towel bound, man standing over her.
Still feeling a dislike towards Ashlen, and blaming her for their capture in the ally, Hidan attempted to attack her. Thankfully Kisame, still playing the role of the loyal dog, jumped protectively in front of her. However, in doing so, Kisame jumped in a puddle of water and, in seconds, poofed back to normal. Towards seeing Shark transform into a tall, naked man, Ashlen grew confused, scared and weak, which caused her to faint on the spot.
Soon, realizing that water undid the jutsu, the rest of the Akatsuki members played in the water. Konan, realizing that every one of them would turn up naked, managed to go last when none of the men were looking. Thankfully for her, Pein had fetched her a housecoat they had seen in Ashlen's room. It had been just a little too small on her but covered what counted. Lastly, after turning off the water, and forcing Hidan to clean up the water, the ninjas carried the two teenagers, only Hikari who as wet because Ashlen fainted in the hall, into the living room. Getting two, wooden, chairs from the other room, the Akatsuki found some rope, tied the girls up and waited for them to wake up.
As they waited, the Akatsuki talked about Orochimaru's jutsu. None of them would have thought water was the key that would turn them back. The ninja, mostly Pein, Itachi and Sasori, were sure that Orochimaru would have had another jutsu that undid his first one. Yet, water was something that could easily be carried around. Turning up naked must have been a side effect on the jutsu; unless the snake ninja wanted to shock his enemies with ten naked ninja. No, it was more likely that it was an unknown side effect, like how being sent to an unknown, chakraless land, was.
Speaking of side effects, one more seemed to effect Sasori. After being sent into the unknown land with the others, the puppet master began feeling weird. As a puppet, Sasori never felt the need to sleep, and only rested to keep his heart healthy. Yet, after being sent into the weird land, Sasori genuinely began to feel tired and that wasn't the weirdest thing to happen to him. The weirdest thing Sasori noticed was that he'd get hungry, very hungry. Weirded out by the feeling, the puppet master would eat slowly, feeling unsure by what was going on.
When Sasori returned to normal, everything became clear. Either it being another side effect, or a personal attack on his part, Sasori didn't return to a puppet body, but a human one. He didn't turn into a thirty-five year old man, either but a fifteen year old teenager. After seeing that Deidara still had his extra mouths, Kakuzu had his stitches and both Pein and Itachi had their eyes, Sasori decided Orochimaru personally attacked him.
Anyways, Hikari the dog trainer was the first girl to wake up. When questioned, the teenager looked confused and shocked for a moment, before she started to laugh. When Pein threatened to do unspeakable things to her, Hikari only laughed harder and challenged him to do so. Hidan, still believing the girl was a Jashinist like him, found this amusing and would comment how he liked her gutsy comebacks.
Sasori was the first to notice that their care taker was now awake. Upon stating so, everyone's attention was quickly driven away from Hikari to Ashlen. Seeing since the girl was having trouble keeping her head up, the ninjas that bothered to realize it, realized she must have hit her head harder than they thought. This was clarified when Hikari asked if she was alright.
~Normal P.O.V~
"Konan, use your medical jutsu to heal her head. We are going to need her to focus if she's going to answer our questions." I heard yet another man say to who I assumed was a woman. I wasn't really sure since I wasn't even sure what language the name was from.
I tried to lift my head to see who had spoke, but it proved useless. Every time I tried to lift my head, it would just fall back down. My head felt so heavy I didn't know what was worse; the pain or the heaviness. So all I could do at this point was sit in the chair I was forcibly tied to and wait for something to happen.
"Yes, Pein." The voice of a older female spoke up. In seconds, before I could even attempt to raise my head again to look at the said woman, I felt a hand touching the back of my head.
I flinched in my seat at being touched but calmed myself a moment later. Even though I really didn't like being touched by other people, I couldn't help but notice something. The pain in my head slowly started to disappear and my vision began to get stronger. This was very strange and confused me a bit. Being a Halloween freak, I was supernatural, so the first thing that popped into my mind was witchcraft.
"Huh, I didn't know you had a healing jutsu. It never said anything like that in Narutopedia." Hikari said, confusing me as I heard the word Naruto again. Wasn't that supposed to be the name of the anime she likes so much?
Feeling strength coming back to me, I was finally able to lift my head and look around me. I was back in the main living room and sitting on a chair that obviously was dragged in from another room. Hikari and I were on the boring side of the living room as well, almost up against the wall in fact. However, the biggest thing I noticed was the eight men that all either stood or sat on the couch around us; all just wearing towels around their waist.
"Narutopedia? It almost sound like that Kyrubi host brat." A more raspy, male voice said. Looking over to the owner of the voice, I saw that it belonged to the tall, blue man that saved me from Ghost, who now seemed to he the silver haired man laughing at Hikari.
"Indeed. Tell us, what does this Narutopedia and what does it have to do with us?" The man that ordered the woman to heal my head ordered once again. With my head now feeling better, and my vision returned, I noticed it was a orange haired man with many face, and body, piercings.
"Narutopedia is a website that gives you information about everything from the series called Naruto. That includes characters, chakra, jutsu's and more. Although, what I don't understand is how all ten of you are here. According to the story line, eight of you should be dead by now." Hikari said in confusion. I forced my gaze away from the half naked men, as the woman was still standing behind me, to look at the other girl in confusion.
'I really wish I knew what she was talking about. Hikari mentioned a manga series before. Manga are Japanese comics, right? I think I read one called Bloody Kiss before but I never heard of one called Naruto.' I thought as I continued to avoid looking at the men. I was only sixteen years old and seeing eight, half naked men, was far more uncomfortable that I could ever imagine; some men were attractive but I really wish they would put some clothes on.
~Third Person P.O.V~
Upon hearing the unexpected answer from Hikari, all ten ninjas were shocked. Even Tobi, who went Madara under his mask, was shocked. Not only were they shocked though, but confused and angry. Instantly Pein demanded a explanation of what Hikari meant but the girl was cut off but a timid, quiet voice.
"Um, excuse me, not to interrupt or anything, but can you please go get dressed? There are clothes on the third floor that should fit you." Ashlen mumbled shyly, causing all the ninjas to move their gaze over to her before looking down at themselves. Some were actually rather embarrassed about the lack of clothing well others didn't seem to care.
"I actually think they look better the way they are." Hikari said rather bluntly, a smug and perverted smirk on her face. This time the Akatsuki members returned the smirk with odd, and slightly disturbed looks, as Hidan laughed.
"So the bitch likes what she sees, eh? Well, how about I get rid of the towel and make you happier?" The Jashinist teasingly smirked, his hands slowly and playfully tugging at the rim of his towel. Towards this, both girls blushed, Ashlen closed her eyes right and Kakuzu punched him over the head.
Hikari was blushing because, while she was serious about the Akatsuki looking better in towels, she wasn't expecting Hidan to pull off his towel. Ashlen was blushing and closing her eyes because she was far too innocent to see any more nakedness; a blue ass was enough for her. Kakuzu, however, punched Hidan in anger and disgust over his perverted antics.
"Hidan, you moron, no one needs to see your dick! Keep your towel on." He growled in irritation, the stitches around his face giving him an angrier and scary look. Hidan spun his head behind him to glare at his partner, one hand now rubbing the newly formed bump on his head.
"Oi, fuck you, you motherfucking bastard! I can do whatever I want! You have no right to fucking stop me." The Jashinist yelled in a angry, pissed off tone. If Pein hadn't stepped in, the two immortals probably would have started fighting.
Meanwhile, Hikari was watching in pure interest. She had always loved when Kakuzu and Hidan fought and now she got to watch it in person. Or she would have if Pein hadn't stepped between the two. However, Pein was still a bad ass ninja and the bad ass Akatsuki leader. Even though she and Ashlen, who seemed far more scared and nervous then Hikari, were being held hostage by the ninja, she couldn't help but feel excited.
"He might not, but I can. Hidan, unless you wish to fight me, you will behave yourself and go get dressed. As you mentioned before, I had little power as a mutt," Pein trailed off for a second as he said mutt with a hint of venom in his voice. "However, I am no longer a mutt any more." The Akatsuki leader angrily, his Rinnegan blazing at Hidan's purple eyes. The Jashinist tried to glare back but eventually gave up, allowing Pein to look at Ashlen.
"Girl, where can we find the bedrooms that have the clothes you speak of?" He more demanded an answer than asked. Frightened by the intense stare, Ashlen flinches and tried to gather her nerves.
"They are on the third floor in about just every room. The west wing was used by the male servants and the east wing is where the females lives. After they left the mansion, most servants left their clothing behind." She answered nervously but loud enough for all ten ninjas to hear her. Pein nodded his head once before looking back at the Konan, who was still standing behind Ashlen.
"Konan, you're already covered. Stay with the hostages until we get back. When we get back, you may leave to change." Pein ordered as he made a hand single with one hand. The seven other men instantly disappeared from the room and Konan nodded in understanding.
~Normal P.O.V~
Hostages? Did he call us hostages? Don't people normally take others hostage when they want money or a human shield for police? At least that's why I always believed. Besides, what did I do to deserve this? My dogs turn into eight, odd looking men, and a woman that I didn't see yet. The last dog, Skully, I haven't seen yet but he must have been around her somewhere. Was any of this even possible though?
As I continued to sit in the chair, with no other choice since I was tied up, a blue haired woman walked around us to sit on the couch. She was a pretty woman with a chin ring and she was also wearing my house coat. Unlike the intense stares I felt from all the men, when this woman stared at Hikari and me, I felt something different. Her stare wasn't all that friendly but I the vibe that she pitied us. Either it being because we were surrounded by intimidating men or the fact the said men were half naked, I wasn't sure.
I might have mentioned this before, but I trained myself to read people's true emotions by looking at their face. This included to a lesser extent thoughts as well. I did this because, after being betrayed by my so called friends in the past, I had to teach myself who was trust-able. Like using this Hikari girl for an example; she didn't instantly put up an act by trying to be my friend or even ask how much money I had. While I had caught her checking out the mansion she seemed more interested in the dogs and the fact I had no one taking care of me for six years.
"Oi, bitch, don't you have any normal clothes?"
Turning my head towards the door, I saw that the men had began to return. The one that spoke to me was the silver haired man. I think his name was Hidan, at least according to the other man that hit him over the head. Hidan, if that was indeed his name, was wearing nothing but a pair of blue pants; no shirt or socks to go with it.
"What do you mean? Those are normal clothing." I answered quietly, finding this man the scariest out of all the others. The man simply tsked and walked back to the couch to join the few other men that had come back already.
"I still don't understand why Tobi still had his mask on when we all came back with nothing, un." A younger male voice complained. I looked over to see it was a blond boy with long bangs over his left eye; he must have been Wolfy.
"How the hell should I know that, brat? Maybe the idiot layered his mask in chakra or something. You're just upset you didn't get to see his face, Deidara. None of us have seen Tobi's face so just shut up about it." The red head that walked past Hikari and I, snapped in annoyance. I watched as the blond grunted and crossed his arms as the red head sat next to him.
The blond boy was was wearing a black plain T-shirt and a pair of Cargo Pants. His hair was tied in a high ponytail with a hair tie he must have found. His bangs were so long that they not only hid his one eye but half of his mouth as well. His eyes, like Wolfy, proved to be blue and just a little tilted. I might be wrong but I think this "Deidara" was a teenager. He looked only a few years older than me and his voice sounded rather young as well. He was also kind of cute
The red head besides him also looked rather young, as I mentioned before. However, he looked even younger than the blond boy named Deidara. This red headed boy was wearing a red shirt with a scorpion on the front, most likely a shirt left behind by a child of a servant. His pants were blue and looked quite snug. I didn't know the fabric of the pants but I did know they weren't jeans. Unlike Deidara, Hidan and Konan, oh and Pein, I didn't know the name of this boy yet.
Soon all of the men had come back, fully clothed. That stitches man even found a scarf for his face. The only man that wasn't fully clothed was the man named Hidan. Yet, since his lower parts were covered, I could survive looking at someone's chest. As the last man arrived, also commenting the clothing, the woman, Konan, left to get herself some clothes. All the complaints and comments on the clothing confused me. The style was normal for this country so why were they complaining? Then again I guess I should be more worried about the fact my dogs turned into humans and one of them was still missing.
~Third Person P.O.V~
"Will all of you stop your damned complaining?! Yes, it is getting rather annoying. At least you have clothes that will fit." Two voices, coming from above the two girls, called out. The first voice was dark and angry while the second was annoyed but more gentle.
Hearing the voices, both Ashlen and Hikari tilted their heads back as far as they could. What the two girls saw made Hikari grin up in surprise but Ashlen screamed at the sight of the weird, plant man. Never before had she seen a man, if she could call it a man, so frightening. Not even the blue skinned man scared her as much, nor did Hidan, who had attempted to kill her at least twice to three times.
The scream was quite unexpected to everyone, the Akatsuki and Hikari alike. Sure the ninjas expected the girls to be frightened and intimidated but not like this. Sure, maybe a few of the ninjas managed to get a few people to piss their pants in fear before, but none of them managed to get a person to scream like they've seen a monster. Then again, Zetsu wasn't technically even human and, as a spy, kept hidden to most people. So, while the frightened scream was quite unexpected, it was understood.
"Did you really have to scream like that?" The darker voice asked in an annoyed tone. "It wasn't very polite, you know." The kinder voice said as Zetsu stared down at the girl before fazing through the wall. Moments later he began to raise through the floor boards but stopped half way. Hikari watched in amazment but Ashlen shivered.
"We are getting no where with this. If you want any chances of getting out of this unharmed, let alone untied, I suggest you start answering our questions." Pein, who was annoyed that the subject had gotten so far from the original one, demanded. Ashlen tried to avoid eye contact with everyone while Hikari merrily chuckled, looking up at Pein with a slight smirk.
"Well, maybe we don't like being tied up. Maybe we'll refuse to answer any questions until you untie us." Hikari challenged carelessly, causing the Akatsuki to either chuckle in amusement, raise an eyebrow or roll their eyes. Ashlen, on the other hand, looked at the younger girl frighteningly.
'Why is she involving me?! Don't make them angry!' She thought in a panic. Thankfully, the ninjas were ignoring her to look at Hikari.
"That's not how it works, kid." Kisame stated in amusement. Sasori nodded once in agreement as he stared calmly at the odd looking girl.
"Besides, you already told us some stuff, why stop now?" the puppet master asked as he crossed his arms, uncrossing them within seconds. Having lost his sense of touch twenty years ago, it was a struggle to get used to it again, finding the fabric of his shirt felt weird.
"So what? I was bored and it gave me something to do." Hikari said, shrugging as much as the ropes would let her, and becoming irritated by the lack of sugar. Pein raised a curious eye towards Hikari as he walked closer and bent down to be eye level with her.
He knew these girls were no real threat. At least not in the physical way. However the Hikari girl obviously had vital information on them, claiming something called a website and Narutopedia told her. Having no idea what either of those were, Pein could only assume that this girl was some chakraless spy. The other girl, the one that had been taking care of them, seemed different. He didn't even have to look at her to know she was confused and scared. Unlike Hikari, Ashlen had no idea what was going on and was scared.
"Tell us, why should we trust that the both of you wont run away if we untie you?" The Akatsuki leader demanded, his Rinnegan eyes flashing dangerously into Hikari's. It only irritated him when the girl looked back into his reddish purple eyes unafraid.
"That's simple. I wouldn't run because, not only am I not afraid of you, I have no idea where I am right now. If you haven't noticed this place is huge; I could get lost easily. Now, I suggest if you want me to cooperate, you'll untie me from this fucking chair so I can get some fucking sugar!" Hikari suddenly yelled angrily. More amused than surprised by her outburst, a few of the Akatsuki members snickered as Pein turned his attention to Ashlen, who flinched under his stare.
"And you?" Pein questioned coldly, staring at Ashlen with his intimidating, Rinnegan eyes. Ashlen tried to avoid his stare but somehow felt that avoiding the stare would make the man angry.
One, intimidating, stare and Ashlen feared this man more than the silver haired man. His eyes just seemed unreal and his cold, demanding stare was one of the scariest things she had ever seen. The last thing Ashlen wanted to do was anger this man, and was frightened, as well as a bit angry, when Hikari got her involved. The teenager could quickly tell that this man must have been the leader of the group of dog people so angering him would be worse than making the silver haired man angry.
"I have no idea what is going on but there is no where to run to. Besides, I doubt I'd be able to out run you if I ever tried to leave. After all, I'm not as stupid as some people claim I am." Ashlen said timidly, unable to hide her uneasiness and fear from her voice. Pein narrowed his eyes thoughtfully at the girl before turning his attention to the other nine ninjas behind him.
"She has a point, Leader-Sama. These girls lack any chakra and, if by chance they are stupid enough to run, it would take only seconds to catch them. There should be no harm in untying them." Itachi spoke, eyeing both girls in boredom. In truth he found Hikari's bravery and bluntness foolish while he sensed Ashlen's fear and pitied her. Not that he would ever let anyone know that though.
"Very well." Pein agreed before turning his back on the two girls. "Untie them so we can finally get the answers we need."
Nodding, Hidan untied Hikari as Kisame untied Ashlen. Even though he was enjoying the frightened expression on her face, Kisame pitied Ashlen. He was the only one besides Itachi to witness the treatment she got from those three girls and hear about Ashlen's so called sister. The teenager was also lucky enough to get on his good side when she dubbed him one of her favorites while still a dog.
"It's about freaking time." Hikari grumbled as she rubbed the burns the ropes had made on her arms while standing up. Ashlen kept to her spot on the chair but moved her arms onto her knees to get in a more, comfortable position.
"There, you got what you want. Now, answer our questions before I regret not tightening the ropes instead of releasing you." Pein ordered coldly, not bothering to even try to hide the annoyance from his voice. Hikari, still annoyed by the lack of sugar, sighed in her own irritation.
"Fine, but you wont believe me. You see, you ten are in a different dimension. In this world, your world exists in mangas and anime. I know this because I am a fan of the series. As the years go by, all but two of you die one by one. I can prove this to you but right now I NEED SUGAR!" Hikari explained quickly and shouted the last part. All ten ninjas either looked at Hikari in confusion or annoyance -some looked both- before turning their attention towards Ashlen for clarification.
"I have no idea what she is talking about. I've only read one manga and I do not watch anime." She said to defend herself. As the S-Class criminals then began to look around at each other, Ashlen turned her attention to the girl beside her.
"If you need something sugary, you can have a soda. This is the same living room as earlier so, once you leave through that door, take a right turn, walk down the hallway and then take another left. Go to the end of the hall and take one more right. From there, the kitchen will be the first door on the right." Ashlen instructed, having memorized the whole house, so it was quite impossible for her to get lost in it. Hikari smirked and, after nodding, quickly walked out of the room with Hidan following after her.
"Oi, I'll make sure the bitch doesn't try to escape. I'll bring her back later." The Jashinist called out with a deep, dark chuckle. Those that knew Hidan well enough rolled their eyes and sighed, hoping that the man didn't do anything stupid since the Akatsuki needed both girls alive; Hikari for information and Ashlen for shelter.
Ashlen, on the other hand, was more nervous for herself. While Hikari was alone with the man that tried to kill her -Ashlen- she was alone with eight other man and one woman. Knowing that these people used to be her dogs, frightened her. Ashlen had trusted her dogs and now, knowing they weren't real dogs, she felt betrayed. If she had the bravery for it, the teenager would probably kick them out of her house. Well, there were a few men Ashlen felt she could trust; despite them being scary; such as the man with red eyes and the scary blue man that saved her from Hidan and untied her.
~Normal P.O.V~
A loud scream sounded through out the house. It not only startled me, but the dog people as well. The scream must have been from Hikari, unless that Hidan man had a girly scream. Within seconds, that man with the mask ran out of the room, most likely going to see what happened. Looking away from the door, I noticed that a few others in the room either had looks of disappointment or annoyance on their face.
"What is that idiot doing now? He better not be hurting that girl." One of the men questioned the man beside him... I think. I don't know if they had forgotten about me or just weren't paying me attention, because the others were now paying attention to him.
"I don't think you have to worry about that. The idiot thinks the brat is a Jashinist like him. I guess it's part of his religion to kill fellow members." The weird man with two skin colors and voices responded. I shivered but I doubt anyone saw me.
"It's quite obvious Hidan likes this girl. If you had paid close enough attention, you would have noticed this." The raven haired man replied in a rich, velvet voice. There was something in his voice that caught my attention, something with the way looked at the others, and at me earlier. I didn't know what it was right now, but I would figure it out in time.
All of a sudden, loud poofs, followed by white clouds, everyone began turning back into dogs. (1) There was no warning behind it and, I didn't know what to think as I watched everyone become the dogs I had bought a few days ago. If these people didn't intimidate me so much, I'd probably find their expressions funny as they watched their friends turn back into dogs before they, themselves, were turned back into dogs. Now as dogs, the clothes they had once been wearing, laid in puddles under their feet.
"What the hell is going on here? Hidan and Kakuzu are dogs again... and so is everyone else it seems." Hikari's voice said from the door way, standing up from my chair, I looked over to the entrance of the living room to see Hikari entering with Ghost and Frankenstein at her side.
"I have no idea how this happened. You seem to be the Naruto expert so can you explain this?" I asked, looking as everyone, in their dog bodies, was now looking at the same girl I was. Hikari looked at the dogs, as if in thought, before she looked back in me.
"I actually might be able to explain. However, I only have one problem; I have been here for hours now, way past my time limit, and my parents will be worried by now. Can I come back in a few days? I can explain everything by then and you can pay me then as well." Hikari asked and explained as she walked out of the room, seeming to ignore the growling dogs. Frowning, I went to see her out, and waved good bye as she left the house before anyone could stop her.
Sighing deeply, I shut the front door and looked at the dog people again. All ten of them were sitting in front of me, just staring up at me. Unsure what to do, I began to chew my lip nervously. I didn't want to throw them out of the house, especially not in their dog forms. As scary as they were I think gaining their trust would be the best solution for me. However, I think I will be doing that as they stay in their dog forms. Hey, it takes trust to make trust and right now, I do not trust them.
(1) I put a time limit on the jutsu ^^ how do you like the changes in this chapter?
