Hey guys! Sorry for being away for so long: I had things to do and just forgot about this story all together. Senior year is tougher than I thought it was going to be…. But I'm making it through because I'm just that determined! Wish me luck, because I have to deal with reluctant seniors who don't want to do any fundraisers but want to go to Florida as a class in March. –cue eye roll-

Anyway, on with the chapter! For the next few chapters, I will describe what's happening because of what was revealed in the previous chapter. And because it's all occurring during that party that Yoruichi had been talking about, each one will be titled The Party Part (insert number).

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto. Only Kimiko and Yoruichi.

Chapter ten: The Party Part One

Moving on autopilot, I sat in front of the vanity dresser and started running a brush through my hair. It's the day of the junior class's teenagers only party, three days after I lost my virginity to Itachi.

Two days since I last saw him or even spoke to him.

I think he's been avoiding me. After Mikoto declared I was her daughter (and the two of us got over the inevitable shock of such a claim), we had woken Fugaku up and headed to the nearest hospital to get us tested. Long story short, the test results came back positive the next morning. I am Itachi's twin.

I guess it shouldn't have been such a huge surprise. We look nearly identical. We act almost exactly the same way. We were drawn to each other ever since that first day we met. And we have the same birthday.

But dammit, it hurts that he won't even look at me anymore!

I had to train one of the male dancers to take his spot as my partner. Trouble is, Deidara Iwa, while having the most stamina of the dancers, doesn't have near as much as Itachi and I do. So I had to tone his stunts down significantly and heighten mine to compensate.

"Onee-chan?" I raised my eyes back to the mirror to look at the nervous looking Kimiko.

"Yes, imoto?"

"Did something happen between you and the Uchihas this weekend? You, Itachi, and Sasu-kun have been acting weird." I gave her a reassuring smile.

"Everything is fine, Kimi. They're just having family issues." That technically wasn't a lie, because this is a family issue. I haven't told her about me being an Uchiha. Fugaku had advised me against doing so, and I saw no problem with his advice.

~Flashback~

"Don't mind Itachi, dear. He just needs some time to let this sink in," Mikoto told me as I watched my twin walk out of the house silently, closing the door gently behind him. I nodded and sighed.

"I can't believe this."

"None of us can. When you were a taken from your crib, I thought you were gone forever. This belief only increased and cemented when we failed to find you anywhere." She tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. "I'm so happy you're here, Yoruichi." I smiled softly at her.

"This information cannot leave this estate," Fugaku suddenly said, making us look up at him. "Yuhi Yuki and Mamoru must be arrested. If they find out we know what they had done…."

"I wouldn't want to warn them. Trust me. But do not punish Kimiko for what they did. She has nothing to do with this," I told him.

"It is not my wish to punish the faultless."

"Would you like to stay here with us along with her? I don't want to leave her stranded with no place to go," Mikoto told me softly.

"Like who to stay with us?" Sasuke asked as he walked into the room, duffle bag across his shoulder. "And where is aniki?" To answer both of his questions, I handed him the file I had been holding for the past ten minutes. It didn't take him long to read it and deduce what this means. "No way."

"Way."

"I didn't even know Nii-san had a twin. Much less that Yoruichi would be that twin."

"The night we brought them home, she was taken out of her and Itachi's crib. After we failed to find her, your father and I destroyed the few pictures we had of her. We couldn't bear the memory of the little girl we lost so quickly."

"Fug…. Otou-san, when will you arrest Kimi's parents?" I asked, looking at the man.

"During the party."

~End Flashback~

"Yoruichi." I looked up again and saw Sasuke standing in my doorway. I really needed to stop drifting off like that…. "The stage manager said I am to tell you that you are on in five."

"Thank you, Sasuke." I stood up and checked my outfit one last time. For the entirety of my performance, I will be wearing a dark red high-low dress whose train is shimmery black. I looked at the younger Uchiha. "Sasuke, I..."

"In the back of my mind, I knew you had to be an Uchiha. You look almost exactly like Itachi. You have his exact birthday. You act just like him, though more often. I should've seen this coming."

"Sasuke…."

"It's going to take a while for me to get used to this, though. But I…."

"Shut up, otouto." He tensed in surprise as I pulled him into a hug. "I am so glad you are my younger brother. You're wonderful and funny and too adorable for your own good."

He relaxed and hugged me back. "I don't know about being adorable. But I'm also glad you're my sister."

I smiled softly and released him. "I should go now. Can't keep the fans waiting."

I ran out of the dressing room to get to the stage just as the music for the first song started.

(Yoruichi alone; backup singers; male singer; Yoruichi and male singer; all; normal.)

When I was young, I played for fun
Made up the words, nobody heard
But now I see all eyes on me
And suddenly I'm in a dream

I got a feeling now
Everything's right somehow

Here I am, being who I want
Giving what I got
Never a doubt now
Here I go burning like a spark
Light up the dark again...

I'm stepping up (stepping up), right to the top (right to the top)
That's how I'm wired, I take it higher
I'm in control, I broke the mold
The girl you see, is up to me

I'm lifting off the ground
Finding the perfect sound

Here I am
Giving what I got

Never a doubt now
Here I go burning like a spark
Light up the dark again...
Again, again, again

Again and again and again
There's a star that's right inside you
So come on and let it out

Find out what you're about and
Just shout
"Here I Am"

Being who I want, giving what I got
Never a doubt now
Here I go, burning like a spark
Light up the dark again

Here I am, being who I want
Giving what I got
Never a doubt now

Here I go burning like a spark
Light up the dark again

Here I am, being who I want
Giving what I got
Never a doubt now
Here I go burning like a spark
Light up the dark again...
(Again), again
(Again), again
(Again), again and again and again
Again and again and again and again (Yeah)

(Again), again

(Again), again (whoa)
Again and again and again and again (again and again)
Here we go

"What's up, Konoha's Elite?!" I greeted with a smirk. I got various responses, but it was just a bunch of yells in general. "My name is Yuhi Yoruichi! And I will be your main entertainer tonight! Is that alright?!"

"Yes!" There we go! An actual coherent response that wasn't just a bunch of yells! I nodded to the band, and they started playing the next song.

Put your heart in it.
You can go the distance.

Me and You Against the World.
Sky is the limit.
Push to the finish
.
Me and You Against the World.
We did it for love.
We tried and we won.
We'll never give up.
It's Me and You Against the World.

What I know right now, this guy came so far to my heart.
He got a key.
I was lost then you found me.
Through all the glamour.
That's the lights and the cameras.
Honestly, all you saw was me.
You didn't care what they said.
You stood by me instead.
Together, we're a stronger team, oh.

Put your heart in it.
You can go the distance.
Me and You Against the World.
Sky is the limit.
Push to the finish.
Me and You Against the World.
We did it for love.
We tried and we won.
We'll never give up.
It's Me and You Against the World.

I know from my dreams, they say I'm crazy.
No matter what, we go around.
It feels like we both are certain.
It's the real thing, nothing beats the feeling.
Only our hearts can know.
Who cares what they say?
They can't get in our way.
Two dreamers just dreaming alo-o-one.

Put your heart in it.
You can go the distance.
Me and You Against the World.
Sky is the limit.
Push to the finish.
Me and You Against the World.
We did it for love.
We tried and we won.
We'll never give up.
It's Me and You Against the World.

We fight together.
We're down forever.
Me and You Against the World.
We stick together and it gets better.
Me and You Against the World.

Put your heart in it.
You can go the distance.
Me and You Against the World.
Sky is the limit.
Push to the finish.
Me and You Against the World.
We did it for love.
We tried and we won.
We'll never give up.
It's Me and You Against the World.

Put your heart in it.
You can go the distance.
Me and You Against the World.
Sky is the limit.
Push to the finish.
Me and You Against the World.
We did it for love.
We tried and we won.
We'll never give up.
It's Me and You Against the World.

I looked over at Deidara. He was starting to lose his steam after only the second song. Granted, he wasn't winded quite yet. But he wasn't going to last ten songs at this rate, much less twenty.

… I miss Itachi.

Wake up
When will things be good enough for you
To see all that we can be
I'm sick of playing games
And acting like we never care
Like we're never there

We pay attention for only seconds

Look at you
Look at me
There's never any us
Can't you see all we can become
We can shine like the sun
If we believe it
Two stars are brighter than one
come on
Come on
Come on
Look at you
Come on
Come on
Come on
Look at me

Listen the way we feel is not just about you and me
It's a harmony
Just give in
Cause together we'll be brighter than just any star
A work of art

We'll make the sky great
Uniting you and I

Look at you
Look at me

There's never any us
Can't you see all we can become
We can shine like the sun
If we believe it
Two stars are brighter than one
come on
Come on
Come on
Look at you
Come on
Come on
Come on

Is it too much to ask
That you put us first
Oh
I feel like we're last in our universe
And it's not where we ought to be

Look at you
Look at me
There's never any us
Can't you see all we can become
We can shine like the sun
If we believe it
Two stars are brighter than one

Look at you
Look at me
There's never any us
Can't you see all we can become
We can shine like the sun
If we believe it
Two stars are brighter than one
come on
Come on
Come on
Look at you
Come on
Come on
Come on
Look at me

Come on
Come on
Come on
Look at you
Come on
Come on
Come on
Look at me

Deidara lowered me from his shoulder back to the floor of the stage, and I patted his shoulder in a supportive fashion. I could easily feel his exhaustion rising. "Two more until you can take a break. During that time, drink some Gatorade," I muttered low. He nodded.

"Thanks, Yoruichi, un." I faced the crowd.

"At this time, I would like to recognize our sponsors who were the second star to the junior class."

As I listed the different companies to acknowledge him, my eyes fell on Kimiko and Sasuke. My thought-to-be younger sister and actual brother. It's crazy. My life was thrown into total craziness this week.

"Now, let's get back to the good stuff, shall we?!" I have to focus right now! I'll think about my life during the break!

Knew where I was going when you left the room
You're the kinda guy who makes me wanna follow through
to you
I've been trying to leave here for the longest time
The second that I saw you I just knew I found my ride by

I like it, I like it, I like it
I like it, I like it, I like it

I wanna crash, I wanna fall
I wanna be somewhere in the middle
Somewhere in the middle
Of something, it's better than nothing
I just need a little, I just need a little
And I don't wanna be nowhere
Something's making me go there
Somewhere in the middle with you

I like it, I like it, I like it
And I like it, I like it, I like it

Losing my direction, that's the way it should be
Feeling a connection when you're standing next to me
I wanna be rolling, I just wanna be rolling with you
All of the things you say
(I like it, I like it)
They're taking me far away (And I like it)

I wanna crash, I wanna fall
I wanna be somewhere in the middle
Somewhere in the middle
Of something, it's better than nothing
I just need a little, I just need a little
And I don't wanna be nowhere
Something's making me go there
Somewhere in the middle with you

Maybe you'll save me
You're gonna take me from this crazy
I've been waiting
'Cause
I just need a little, I just need a little
Somewhere in the middle with you

Crash, I wanna fall
I wanna be somewhere in the middle
Somewhere in the middle
Of something, it's better than nothing
I just need a little, I just need a little
And I don't wanna be nowhere
Something's making me go there
Somewhere in the middle with you

Crash, fall, I like it, I like it
Somewhere in the middle with you
Crash, fall, I like it, I like it
Somewhere in the middle with you, middle with you

I belted out the final line at the top of my lungs (while still remaining in key) up at the ceiling. That was always my favorite part of the song: the final note of that final line. And apparently, one of theirs as well, going by the teens' louder cheers.

As the dancers got into position, Deidara and I settle the crowd down. The lights shut off with spotlights only on us.

Deidara: I used to see the world as cold, so cold
Me: I always felt so all alone, oh
Deidara: How did you know you'd find me here? Yeah
Me: How did you ever see behind my tears? Yeah

Both: I never realized

Me: how anyone could make everything so right

Deidara made his way behind me, leaving me as the only one bathed in light.

Me: I was so sad, you brought me back

The spotlight flashed on behind me to where Deidara was supposed to be.

Itachi: oh!

At the first instant of the note, I whipped around to see Itachi bathed in the red light. As we sang he made his way down to me with a smile on his face. Once he was next to me, I turned around and joined in the dancing.

You give me something to believe in, after all that we've been through
The love you give, it all comes back to you

You give me something to believe in, you can see the real me
And here with you is where I'm meant to be

I don't have to imagine anymore, no, oh
All the time it was you I was waiting for, oh
And here we are together side by side, yeah
And nothing seems impossible tonight, oh yeah

You look inside my heart and seem to get me from the start
And we've got the chance, the chance to make this last

You give me something to believe in after all that we've been through
The love you give, it all comes back to you
You give me something to believe in, you can see the real me
And here with you is where I'm meant to be

Lift us up so high above, higher than high
Now we realize, feeling so alive

All it takes is love to find us, guide us all
The way that's the one thing you can trust
All we need is love to reach out, show out
We belong here together

You give me something to believe in after all that we've been through
The love you give, it all comes back to you, comes back to you
You give me something to believe in, you can see the real me
And here with you is where I'm meant to be, oh yeah, oh, oh, oh, oh

I looked into Itachi's eyes as he held me bridal style after spinning us around. I leaned forward to kiss his cheek before he set me down on my feet so that I could turn to face the crowd.

"At this time, we are going to take a ten-minute break! In the meantime, enjoy the snack spread and our DJ over there!" Waving, I yanked Itachi to my dressing room.

Reviews are greatly appreciated.
