This Chapter is in Shiro's POV!
"what a really, really strange day! First Hatake-san, then the sound nin, then I find Uchiha SASUKE waiting for me to wake up! What next? I find Hatake-san in my kitchen?" I thought, giggling. I opened the door, and Surprise! There was Hatake Kakashi, leaning on my kitchen counter. "Oh…My…God…" I said, staring at him. "Hey. I wanted to talk with you. I sighned your hospital release papers." He said, and I regained my dignity. "Oh, thanks. I suppose you know about my parents, huh?" I said, getting out Fancy Feast, milk, cookies, two glasses and three plates. "He nodded as he watched my work. "Ya. Why didn't you go live with relatives after the death?" he asked. "If its not to painful to talk about." He said, catching the falling Fancy Feast can. "Thanks. And no, I can talk about it. My family is dead. Im the last one. Both my parents where only kids, and my sister died with them, when the mist attacked the hokage's house, where we were staying as the third was a close friend of my father's." I said, scooping out the cat food onto a plate, and putting two cookies on the other two, handing both a glass of milk and a plate of cookies to him. He accepted, and started nibbling, lifting his mask just over his mouth. "Why didn't you stay with the Hokage then?" he asked. I shrugged. "I reclined. I didn't want to intrude." I said, finishing off my cookies and milk. He finished off his and stood. "Well, I had better get going…good night." He said, and walked through the door. I walked upstairs and climbed into bed.
IN THE MORNING
I woke up to rays off sunshine and my alarm clock read 9:00. I sat up, grabbed a midnight blue sweater, and a pair of white pants. I put my headband around my neck and raced out the door.
AT THE ACADEMY
I reached the Academy. It was empty. I raced to my classroom and opened the door. THUNK!!! Something hard and covered in chalk hit my head. I blinked the powder out of my eyes and looked around. Sitting there, was Haruno Sakura, Uzumaki Naruto, and Uchiha Sasuke. "Look what you did, Naruto! You hit poor- uh…what your name again?" Sakura asked, looking at me. "Hoshi Shiro." I said, and sat down, trying desperately to shake my head free of any last chalk as Naruto placed the eraser in it's original position and sat down beside me. "I thought you didn't pass, Naru?" I asked Naruto, who was chuckling. "Ya, well, Iruka-Sensei saw me complete ONE HUNDRED doppelgangers, and let me pass!" he exclaimed, as a hand appeared, and the eraser fell on no other than Hatake Kakashi himself. "Im sorry Sensei, I tried to stop him, but…" sakura trailed off. I snorted. "Ya, ok. Sure you did, pinky." I laughed, once again turning into Ice Queen: Ruler of Sarcastic ness. She glared at me. I smiled back. "Oh, Iruka told me to give you this." Kakashi said, and tossed me a scroll. It said:
Dear Ms. Hoshi,
I regret to inform you that you will be the uneven number on Hatake Kakashi's team.
Sincerely,
Iruka-Sensei
"Typical. Always the third wheel." I muttered, throwing the scroll In the trash. "On my first impression of you guys, I hate you." Kakashi said simply, getting my attention. "well, on my first impression of You, Mr. I am the world's leader, I'd have to say you're a great big, pompous Chickenturkey." I said, crossing my arms. He stared at me. I stared back. "Whatever. Follow me he said, ending our staring contest.
AT THE BALCONY THING (A/N: sorry, I didn't know whats its called… . )
"Ok, why don't you guys tell me a little bit about yourselves?" Kakashi said, leaning against the railing. Sakura, Naruto and Sasuke were sitting on the steps, and I was standing behind them, kinda between the boys. "Like what?" Naruto asked loudly. "You know, the usual. You Favorite thing, what you hate the most, Dreams, Ambitions, Hobbies, things like that." He said, shrugging. "Help us out here coach. You go first. Show us how it's done!" Naruto exclaimed. "yeah, that's right…after all, you are a complete stranger to us…a mystery." Sakura said. "A mystery in a mask…now doesn't that sound scary?" I joked, and naruto started shaking with the effort to hold in his laughter. Kakashi ignored me. "Oh, me? My names Hatake Kakashi. Im the kind of person who doesn't like talking about his likes and dislikes. My dreams for the future are none of your business…but anyway, I have lots of hobbies." He finished off. "Well, he said a lot, but all we really learned was his name." Sakura mumbled. "Okay, lets start on the right." Kakashi said, pointing to naruto. "me, right?!? My name is Uzumaki Naruto! What I like is instant cup Ramen! What I like even better is when Iruka-Sensei treats me to ramen at the Ichiraku ramen bar! What I hate is the three minute wait after I pour in the boiling water! My dream is to become an even better shinobi than Lord Hokage! Then all the villagers will have to Acknowledge my Exisctence! My hobbies…pranks and practical jokes I guess." Naruto finished. "Ok…Next!" Kakashi said. I walked to beside Sakura, making a point that I wanted to wait to last. "My name is Uchiha Sasuke. There are plenty things I hate, but I don't think that matters, because there is hardly anything I do like. It seems pointless to talk about 'dreams'…that's just a word…but what I do have is determination, I plan to restore my clan, and theres someone I have sworn…to kill." He finished, ending with an eerie silence. "I see…it must be the one who massacred his clan…poor guy, he's just like me, and I would never wish anything like what I have suffered on anyone else, EVER!" I thought, snapping out of my thoughts just in time to hear the forehead girl talk. "I am Haruno Sakura. My Favorite thing is, well its not a thing, it's a person, a boy, and that boy is…," she looked at Sasuke, blushing like ripe tomato, "Uh…lets move on to my dream," at this she blushed harder and his her face in her hands. A moment later, her face was normal and she said: "I hate Naruto! My hobbies are.." and she trailed off again, blushing at Sasuke. "O-kay…Next! Ms Hoshi, your turn!" Kakashi lokoed at me. I stared at the floor. "Whats the matter, Icey, ugly thing got your tongue? Or are you so stupid you cant talk properly?" Haruno taunted. "Shut your mouth, Haruno! I am a person, I have feelings! And you don't know me, so you had all better listen up! Im only repeating these things once, once and never again! What ever you hear here, you are NEVER allowed to repeat, got it?" I hissed, looking at them. "My name is Hoshi Shiro, my Favorite things are my cat, my locket from my mother, my book from my father, and my sister's doll. My most hated things are: Rouge Ninja who kill for sport, preying on weak little girls, and innocent ninja who did no harm to them! My dream, like Uchiha-san, is not just a dream, I CAN, and WILL make it a reality! I want to kill the man who sent the ninja who killed the last off my family, And I WILL Succeed! My hobbies are visiting my families graves, training, and reading.. My Ambition, train as hard as I can, live life to the fullest, and If I fall in love, that's a small bonus." I finished, crossing my arms, and staring ahead, not looking at anyone. "Enough. I believe we all understand each other. Training starts tomorrow.dont eat breakfast, unless you enjoy throwing up. Your assignment is in this paper, don't be late." He said, and left. I took my paper and started walking away. "Wait! Shiro-Chan! Hold up!" naruto said, running up. I stood still not looking at him. "Why didn't you tell me about your parents?" he asked,a nd I heard the rest of the team stop to listen. "Somethings are better left unsaid, Naru…now if you excuse me, I have an important assignmet, I have to go visit a special place…" I trailed off. "Can I come?" he asked. I turned around, and smiled. "Sure. You two are welcome to come,If you wish…im sure they would be honoured to meet you." I said, looking over naruto's head at Uchiha and Sakura. Uchiha walked over and Sakura nodded and came too. "So where is it?" Sakura asked, "Who are we meeting?". "I have to drop by my house, but you'll have to come, is that alright?" I asked and Naruto was jumping along ahead, yelling about always wanting to see where I lived, and Sakura yelling at him to slow down, and Uchiha was beside me, just walking.
AT MY HOUSE
My house was small, three bedrooms, one small room that used to be my father's office, the living room, kitchen and dining room, and bathroom. I only ever use the bathroom, my room, the kitchen, and rarely the living room and dining room. I enterd the front door, and led them into my really tidy, but dusty living room. "Stay here, I'll be back." I ran up into my room and grabbed one daisie, and two red roses. I came down to see Uchiha stnding beside the tv, looking around out of the corner of his eyes, Naruto was sitting on the couch, looking at a couple of jutsu scrolls, and Sakura was inspecting pictures of my and my family. "Im ready…lets go." I said, entering the room, and leading them to the rock with the names off fallen ninja.
AT THE ROCK
"You brought us to see a rock with a bunch off names on it?" naruto asked. I stayed silent and put the flowers down on it and pressed the names of my family affectionately. I stood up and looked at them. "You guys wanted to come. So this is my families resting place…"I said. "Im going home now. Sorry if you were disappointed." And I sprinted away, leaving the poor genin alone at the rock.
NEXT MORNING
I awoke at 4:00…in the morning…3 hours before my buzzer went off…l looked at it, and then at my head band. "Might as well get up…maybe and can throw together a new outfit today!" I said out loud, and took out the only tee-shirt I owned. It was almost white, but blue all the same. I slipped it on and took out a long, black skirt. It was flowy, and gave me lots of room to run. I put in a pair of shorts, which were fairly long, and put them on underneath. I slipped on a black vest, and picked up my jewelry box. I took out a heart on a chain and opened it. Inside were the smiling pictures of our family together. I put it on, and tucked it in my shirt. I went downstairs and got a glass of milk and went for a walk. I walked down the street, my headband was glinting proudly from my neck. I had requested a longer fabric on it, so its long ribbons hung down my back. My hair was down and it was bouncy and hung in curls around my face and down my back. I walked around, and realized I forgot to feed my cat. I ran back, and dropped the food in surprise as my door bell rang. I ran to the front door, and opened it. On the other side: Uchiha Sasuke.
