Summary:The Fourth Hokage thought he was going on a simple mission. Watch innocent Little girl princess with team as we travel to the wind country, but what if that little princess wasn't so little, and the mission turned out to be not so simple.
I sat in my bed miserable. I was going to be forced to marry one of the men I saw last night. A man I didn't even know. Kouichi had his arms around her as he tried to calm me down
"There, there Nozomi it's not that bad" said Suki
"Not that bad I don't want to get married to a man I hardly know!"
"Oh stop it Mizuru. Besides none of them will probably want to marry you because your ugly. Ok" Aimi said while she put on her makeup
"Aimi!" Suki yelled
"What it's true no man would want to marry her"
"And no man would want to marry a woman who stuffs her bra!" I told her
Aimi turned back to her mirror blushing.
"Nozomi's right he can't do this. I mean I got to fall in love why can't she? Why can't any of you?" Kouichi said
"Because it's our duty as princesses" said Suki
"It's my duty as a prince to marry a noble woman as well but I wont take any because I want to fall in love and father allowed me to"
"That was easy for you because you're a boy you get more rights" I said
"I despise that fact! I'm going to go give him a piece of my mind right know!" Kouichi said getting up. As he reached for the door handle Kita cam barging in pushing him to the side
"Suki" she yelled in excitement "Come, come quickly"
"What is it Kita?" Suki asked
"Darling quickly put a dress on and brush you hair there is someone here for you"
"Who?" she asked
"It's the prince of the earth country and his father hurry know"
Suki darted up and headed quickly for the closet.
"Kita what should I ware?"
"Your white sun dress" Kita said
Suki put it on and then ran over to the mirror knocking Aimi over and brushed back her hair.
"OW!" Aimi said
"Quickly child come on know"
Kouichi and I both looked at each other
We followed Suki and Kita out of the room. We walked swiftly down the hall and to the front door of my father's Personal library. Kita knocked on the door.
"Yes come in" said my father. You could hear two other people in there with him. Kita and Kouichi walked in.
"Oh, Nozomi wish me luck" said Suki turning to me.
"I can't believe you actually want this" I said to her shocked
"Nozomi listen it's time for you to grow up. That means taking responsibility like marrying people father says you should marry." She said
I looked at Suki confused "Suki that's not responsibility that's doing what father wants you to do."
"Nozomi look at me and understand this. Our responsibility is to our father ok. So you're just going to have to suck it up. Put down the kunai and pick up a needle and thread more often."
"Come Suki" said Kita
Suki turned around and walked into the room shutting the door behind her. While I stood there with my mouth open. I've heard people tell me stuff like that. From Kita and Aimi, but I try not to let them get to me, from my father, but not from Suki.
Kouichi stepped out of the room as she stepped in. He looked at me.
"What's wrong?"
Outside in the garden
"I never heard Suki talk to me like that before."
"I can't believe she would do that to you. She's talking straight out of place. Do you want me to tell dad?" Kouichi said
"No it's fine. I hear stuff like that a lot"
I looked around at the scenery. The garden was one of the only things I liked about my home. If you can call it a home, it's just so big and empty. I would much rather have a smaller house, with a little more warmth in it.
"I remember when you were little and I would have too watch you while you ran around in the garden"
"You say it like it's a bad thing come on you had fun."
Kouichi smiled "it was fun. We would make up stupid games to play and you would make those flower crowns."
"Those were for a game we always played. What was it? Fairies!"
"Oh, yeah. I remember"
"That was the best. Exploring the castle and gardens" I said
"Yeah it was. You know come to think of it you spent most of your life outside Nozomi."
"I know well, I liked it out side, so many birds to see, the smell of flowers, it all just so beautiful. I love flowers, for some reason they always make me happy. Singing also makes me happy too."
"Mom used too sing to" Kouichi said
"I know"
"Dad says your moms little twin"
"He does?"
"Well actually he only said that once to me, but I bet he thinks it every time he looks at you."
We both sat down on a bench and talked for a little longer. Till we heard someone calling us "That sounded like Suki." I said to. We looked around to see Suki running towards us.
"I'm engaged!" she yelled out to me.
Suki's room
Suki ran around her room throwing things into boxes and suitcases.
"I'm going to be married oh I just can't believe it!" she said giddily
"You're going to be married. Oh, I just can't believe you're so happy about it" I said
"Not this again. Nozomi" she complained
"I can't believe after knowing each other only one night you get engaged." I said
"It wasn't only one night I've seen him before at dances and other gatherings"
"But they decided all of this without you all that happened was they called you in and father said 'You are going to marry this man', and then for some reason beyond me you said yes."
I looked over at Suki who was sitting in a chair with a happy dazed look on her face.
"Did you hear anything I just said?"
"Huh? Oh sorry Nozomi I've just been thinking. Its just seems like it's all a dream. I bet our wedding will be so beautiful, and then we'll have kids and and and- Ooh! I'm just so excited"
"knock knock!" said Aimi from the door way. She stepped in and said "I'm next for sure"
I rolled my eyes. "The last thing I need is for you to be here. Why don't you go make out with your reflection for awhile and leave us alone?" I said
"Oh stop acting so bitter. Green is a very ugly color on you" Aimi said
"First of all I'm not jealous. I'm worried about my sister's happiness, and second of all if green is so ugly why do you always ware it?"
Aimi let out her girly girl Uh when I said it
"Would you two knock it off" Suki said
I spit my tongue out at her.
"Oh real mature" said Suki
"I guess this will be the last couple of days we'll be seeing you?" said Aimi
"What?" I said
"Aimi why did you have to go and say that I didn't tell Nozomi yet"
"What?" I said again "I'm never going to see you"
"Well after I leave you'll see me at my wedding and Parties."
"That's it, what if I need to talk to you?"
"Well you could send me mail I promise to always answer as soon as possible"
"Yeah oh well Suki it looks like you and I will have to leave and live happily ever after while Mizuru stays here with brother forever because no one will want to marry her"
"Aimi!"
"It's true"
"Nozomi don't listen to her she doesn't know what she's saying"
"It is true, but I don't care I don't want to marry anyone if I'm not in love"
"It's not true Nozomi!"
"Who will want to marry you even if you fall in love? I'm sure they will much rather marry me."
"Would you two stop it?" begged Suki
