Chapter 3-The Deadly Forest and the land called SUNA!
Tarilia entered the bleak, dark forest. She walked slowly and cautiously until she stepped on a twig, which made a loud CRACK! She froze as she saw black birds fly towards the sky, cawing. Her face had a terrified shock look on it, and her hair was raising.
"Oh man, this is BAD! We gotta get out of here!"
"First, w-we have to find K-Kiba."
"No way! Are you losing your mind? look, it'll be the death of us if we go out lookng for THAT loser!"
"He's not a loser! He's my FRIEND!"
"Whatever, but when your on the ground, gasping for breath, in the middle of this forest, DIEING, you'll know it was your fault."
"I-I'm not going to die...ok?"
"That's what you think..."
"Thanks for ALL YOUR SUPPORT!"
"You're welcome!"
Tarilia ignored her inner-self, and kept walking. She heard something behind her, but it was too dark to see. "Uh no...please, please just be a rabbit...without rabies.", she whispered to herself. The sound got louder and sounded like it was getting faster, and closer. Tarilia started walkng a little faster, a nice brisk walk. "Walking fast is good", she said. The noise was getting closer. "Running, running is even better, and healthier!" The noise was literally right behind her. "SPRINTING IS THE LIFE SAVER HERE!" She ran, going as fast as she could, closing her eyes. Then she ran into a big tree. "OOF!", she screamed as she backed up from it. "My nose...", she said rubbing it, soothingly. Then the noise came back and it sounded as if it wes right there! She ran again, but didn't go very far due to her running into the same tree, and she fell, and rubbed her nose, again.
"Wow, you're such a genius...running into a tree...twice!"
"Shut it", she said aloud. Then something furry, and white flashed before her eyes. Then it pounced on her. "EEEEEK!", she screamed as she rolled on the ground. "Bark!", she heard, and she openned her eyes to find Akamaru, right on top of her stomach and chest, wagging his tail. "Akamaru, its only you!", she said happily, hugging the puppy. Akamaru managed to squeeze his head ot of her embrace, getting wet with her tears of joy.
"So, do you know where Kiba-kun is?", she asked the puppy between tears. Akamaru looked away, then started whimpering. "Akamaru...please, please don't tell me...he's...he's...", she quickly stopped her sentence and stood up, holding the puppy close to her. She started to walk past the tree she had hit, and then something made a THUMP! She turned around immediately and looked to see what it was. Tarilia noticed some floating leaves, and then saw a figure on the ground. "K-Kiba-kun?", she walked slowly and Akamaru freed himself from her and took off to where the figure was lying. She stood next to the figure, and realized that it was Kiba! "Kiba-kun!", she whispered to herself. She dropped to her knees and put her head on his chest, to check for any heartbeat. She checked his pulse at both the wrist and neck. "Nothing...", she managed to whisper out. Akamaru, whimpered and started licking the motionless Kiba. Tarilia bent over him, crying.
Kiba opened his eyes a few moments later, and noticed Akamaru and Tarilia. Then he noticed that the back of his head killed. "OWWWWW! OW! OW! OW! OWWW!", he shouted sitting up, and startling Tarilia and Akamaru. "Kibe-kun! You're alive!", tarilia shouted, gleefully, and hugged him, knocking him down. Akamaru licked his face. kiba was gasping for breathe, for two reasons; 1) his friends were sufficating him, and 2) the girl of his dreams was hugging him. "G-Guys! GUYS! LET GO!", he yelled out, and they both jumped back. "I need to breathe! No offense, but you guys hurt!" Tarilia laughed, and Akamaru jumped back on Kiba, playfully. "It's good to see that you're alive Kiba! I thought you were...well, dead.", Tarilia said, quietly. "She was worried about me! She does care! , Kibs thought, and he said aloud, "Aah, you know me! Tough as nails! Ha ha ha!" Tarilia laughed, but on the inside..."That loser! I was worried to death!" Akamaru didn't want to be left out, so he barked,gaining the attention he needed; a pet and a little kibble.
Tarilia helped Kiba up and noticed a very big lump on the back of his head. "Kiba! What happened to your head!", she shouted out. Kiba turned slightly red at that, and he said, "Uh...well, there's a good explaination for that! I was...falling, yeah, you saw me. And so, I was falling fast, and then I hit the top of this here tree.",he patted the black oak Tarilia had slammed into...twice,"And then I fell s'more, and hit it again...and then hit another branch...and another one...and I think 4 more. then got caught in an intersection of two branches. So I stayed up there, unconsious, until you hit the tree, and I fell out." Tarilia stared at him while he explained and then when he finished, she bursted out laughing. "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Kiba-kun, that is too funny! HA HA HAAA!" "Hey! It hurt!", he said, and turned completely red. She looked at him and blinked twice. "All is good Kiba. As long as you're ok." "Good...I think", Kiba said as he led the trio out of the forest.
After an hour or so, they managwed to get out of the forest. "Finally!", Kiba yelled out, only to be returned with a reply from Tarilia,"We have to go back. Look at the sign." Kiba stopped and took a glance at the sign. it read;
Welcome to Konoha!
Hidden Village of the Leaves!
Kiba gave a look and blushed. "Uh...well, I-I knew that. I-I was j-just testig y-you" "Sure, genius, lets go my way", Tarilia laughed to herself and they took off again. Thye went through the forest...again. They went through mountains...and then they came to the desert.
They finally arrived at Suna. it was nightfall, and they gave eachother quick glances. "Nobody's awake, right? So we can just waltz right in, grab your parents, and go!", Tarilia was full of confidence. "Yeah, sure...", Kiba said, his confidence was only a fraction of hers. He wasn't so sure about this. "Alright, lets go!", Kiba shouted and they ran silently, looking through windows of the desert village. They went through a good twelve houses, and then they found a big shack at the very far east of the city. It had a sign that said" Stay out...or else." "We should've known it would be this place...",Kiba said unenthusiastically. "Well, lets go.", Tarilia added. They quickly, quietly, ran up to the roof. The moon was shining brightly, making the perfect light to see through. Tarilia looked around while Kiba found a little door on the floor of the roof, and he hopped in, followed by Akamaru then Tarilia.
They looked around and searched high and low for any traces of his parents. "Kiba! Kiba! Where would they be!", Tarilia whispered. "How am I supposed to know? Just less talky, more looky!", he replied. "Hmph", was all she said, and she came to three doors.
"Ok, well, this one says Temari..." A picture of the fierce kunoichi appeared in her head.
"Ack! Move on! Move on!"
"Ok, geez...So this one says...Kankurou."
"PERV ALERT! PUPPETS TOO!"
"This one...Gaara."
"Serial Killer! Images, not needed!"
"These, doors, we do not want to open.", so she moved on to another door with the words, "Prisnors to be killed" "How obvious...", she whispered to herself, and she placed her hand on the handle, but then the door was being turned by some silvery colored sand. She removed her hand and jumped back into someone. She slowly turned around to see someone who she never thought of seeing. Gaara.
He stepped back and she didn't move. She was frozen in fear, but her inner self was going crazy. "RUN! RUN FOR OUR LIVES! RUN GIRL! MOVE IT! GET OUTTA HERE! HIGHTAIL IT AND GO!" Sand from the gourd on gaara's back was slowly spinning itself out. It was coming closer to her and she wasn't moving. She couldn't move at all. her body just wasn't responding. Then a shurikan came out of nowhere and was coming at Gaara. The sand immediately retreated from Tarilia and blocked the shurikan, by grabbing it. Kiba jumped out and landed in front of the shock-stricken girl. "leave her alone! Gimme my parents, and then we'll leave!", Kiba spoke in an unusual, serious tone. Tarilia then regained feeling and turned around completely, facing the two boys. Gaara didn't say anything. All he did was use sand to throw Kiba against the wall. Kiba landed on the ground, moaning, slowly getting up. Tarilia couldn't see Gaara, but she knew, that he would kill her if she didn't get Kiba and go. "He's gonna end your life here if you don't grab Kibone and scat!" "I know...I...I just am a little...scared.", She said in her head. "But, that won't stop me, from saving our lives, if needed...now, if I could only move."
The sand was now coming for her. She jumped back and threw a kunai knife at Gaara. the sand got up and blocked it. At that little distraction, she ran for Kibone, I MEAN KIBA. gaara lifted his hand and quickly sand headed for Tarilia. it tripped her, and she fell, but she rolled and flipped, getting up. She did some quick, short hand signs and then lifted her left hand. Then she thrusted it forward, towards Gaara, and a rotating, line of fire came at him. he jumped back, and used sand to block the remaning, incoming ambers. She turned around, grabbed Kiba, and burst threw the "Prisnors" door. Wood shattered everywhere as they fell threw. Kiba's parents were there, and they were alive! They saw the pair fall in, and land with a thump. Kiba's mother got up, and though she was injured, she came and helped the kids up. Kiba was knocked out, not only because of getting slammed into the wall, but because the bump on his head was hit again. Kiba's father ran up to them ansd said, "Is our Kiba ok? And who are you?" "I'm Tarilia. And he's ok...he was just thrown into a wall." Kiba's mother held him close whispering some soothing things that Tarilia couldn't hear. Akamaru was out cold too, because Kiba's weight had been to hard on him, when they landed. Tarilia got up in time to block the sand that was heading for them.
She blocked the sad using to small fans she took out from her sash. the sand engolfed the fans, and she ran up to kick him. the sand block her again, but she twisted free, and threw some kunai knives. Sand arose, and sheilded Gaara. Kiba's parents ran towards the end of the small, dungeon like room. She flipped back in the air, and landed a good two yards away from Gaara. She did some more hand signs, as sand rushed towards her. She jumped back, still making the signs. Then she took a deep breath, put her index finger and thumb to her lips, and blew. Out came a gust of fire. gaara used his sand to tunnel out of the burning house. Tarilia signalled to the family, and they ran outside.
Kankurou, who was still in bed, looked around. he noticed the house was burning, and jumped up. "AHHH! OUR HOUSE IS ON FIRE!" he ran in circles, then grabbed three puppets and jumped out the window. He landed with a thump, on top of Kiba's mom. "Oops...", he said as jumped off of the woman, and he took off, puppet strings flying everywhere.
Tarilia was still in the house. She was running out, but something grabbed her. More like some one. Gaara had grabbed her arm, and she tried hard to pull free. "Let go, you psycho!", Tarilia shouted, then she took a kunai knife and stabbed it in his arm. Instead of blood gushing out, sand flew everywhere,which made her hair raise. "EEEK! You're even more of a weirdo than I thought!" Then she tugged hard, and freed herself. She ran outside into the moonlight.
The Inuzuka family was waiting outside, and when they saw her jump out of the burning house,they stepped back as she fell on the ground. "I'm ok!", she said as she shot up and took off. They followed her out to about 40 yards, outside the burning house. Kiba started waking up a bit, then he looked around from side to side, in a panicked manor, then jumped out of his father's arms nd landed on the ground. "Wh-where is the crazy guy! Did he die! ARE WE DEAD IN HEAVEN!", Kiba was freaking out and Tarilia jumped, and sat on him. "Calm down, Kiba-kun. The psycho's gonna die now."
"Are you really sure about that?", a voice said from behind them. "G-G-GAARA! RUN GIRL! ATTACK! FLEE! DO RANDOM THINGS!" "EEEK! I mean, grrr!", Kiba shouted. His parents looked at Kiba, did something doglike, and took off. "WTF! THEY LEFT!" Kiba was already facing the evil one, but Tarilia wasn't. She picked up Akamaru, who had fallen out of his usual spot on Kiba, and then she turned around. What she saw was completely different from what she thought. She saw an evil monster, but what she thought, was a potential boyfriend. "WOWY! That's one hot Kazekage! Let's hook up!""N-No, it's just the lighting of the moon on him! Don't be fooled!" "Girl, you foolin' yourself! He's hot, and that's what you know! Anyways, I'm sure he's free..." "WOULD YOU SHUT UP!", Tarilia said...outloud. Kiba looked stunned. Gaara was taken aback. Akamaru had a huge anime sweatdrop on his head. "Wow, Tarilia sure knows how to creep people out...", Akamaru thought, as he jumped down and jogged up to Kiba. "You know what, we'll just leave...have a wonerful life, and...and...stay away from cats!", Kiba said as he picked up Tarilia and ran into a mountainous area. Gaara was confused. "You should go follow them, then kill them. Yeah! That sounds great!", the demon in Gaara spoke quietly. "Naah, I'm gonna be busy building a new house...again!", Gaara said with frustration, and he walked towards the house, and used his sand to put out the flames.
Far away on the cliff of a tall, tall, tall, TALL mountain, Kiba, Akamaru, and Tarilia were camping. "Ok, why did you scream like a lunatic back there?", Kiba questioned Tarilia.
"Oh! Th-that was n-nothing...I just h-had a fight w-with my inner self a-again."
"Your 'Inner self'?"
"Yeah, crazy huh?", she wrapped her arms around her knees as she sat up against a smooth rock. "We better get some shut eye...or we'll all go crazy", she added with amusement.
"It's not that crazy...look at me! I act like a dog half the time!"
"You do?", she said, sitting up straighter.
"Yeah, so its ok to be weird...just not all the time, heh."
"Great, he admitted that he belongs in the happy house...", Akamaru sighed as he cuddle next to Kiba to sleep.
"Well, g'night Kibone. Night Akamaru!"
Kiba sat up. "Kibone?"
Tarilia turned completely red. "Uh...uh th-that's what my i-inner self c-calls y-you."
"I see...well g'night Tarilia! Night Tarilia's inner self!"
"He said godd night to you! He's better for us."
"Aah, who cares. That hotty with the hot red hair is better. Way cuter, and he doesn't smell bad."
"Good night!", Tarilia angrily said to her self.
More on its way! Please rate! It took me forever! I had karate lessons and drawing contests...well...rate plz!
