The New Kids?

Chapter Three


"Who's there?" Neji said grabbing two kunais from his pouch.

"Just little ole me, Hajimaru Satoshi, the bounty slayer." The boy said jumping down from a tree. The kid jumped down, he was about Neji's height, but still only 12. He had light brown bushy hair on the left side of his hair. He had big hazel eyes, and was wearing a short sleeved jacket, unzipped, which was white. Inside he had a red shirt on. He had on baggy pants that were also white. He did have on blue sandals, brown gloves, and a white head band. On his back he had a two katanas.

"So what, are you going to kill me just because I'm an outlaw?"

"Pft." He put one finger up. "One, I wouldn't get any money out of that." He held up two fingers. "Two, my sword is slightly cracked, and I can't waste my last fight on you," And he put up three fingers. "And three, I myself is an outlaw to this place. So, I have no reason to kill you, also, if I were to kill you, then I would kill myself because I do not kill people for no reason. Who would've figured?" The boy shrugged and started walking away.

"Wait, what's your name?" Neji said putting the kunais back.

The boy turned around and looked curiously at Neji. "I already told you, say your name first and I shall tell you.

"Hyuuga Neji of the-."

"I know the Hyuuga clan." Neji pouted a little.

"Yeah…"

"Wait…of the Hyuuga clan? I heard that name before, Hinata…Hinata Hyuuga….and Neji, I've heard that name too….they're cousins…"

"Well, what's your name?"

"Hajimaru Satoshi the bounty slayer…Neji…we've met before. Long ago when you were about 6."

"You mean you're the boy that was-." Neji said his eyes widening.

"Yes…"

"I knew I recognized the name. And the gloves, so you grew into them?"

Satoshi smiled. "Yep."

flashback

"I didn't steal it, I swear!"

"Get back here kid, we know you did!" Three guys were chasing after Satoshi when he was six. "Hey, look ahead, there's another kid with the same item that was stolen!" (Me: Idiots…)

Satoshi grabbed the kid while running and ran into an ally way.

"What the? Where'd they go?"

"Doesn't matter; let's go back on watch…"

"Yeah…"

"Satoshi turned around and saw the kid who he grabbed. "I'm very sorry about that…I am Hajimaru Satoshi….and you are?"

"H-Hyuuga Neji…what happened?"

"Just kind of got framed for stealing but I don't have anything! I'm really sorry about that…."

"It's alright…"

back in the present yay!

"Hah…well, I couldn't kill you even if I wanted unless there was $1 million on you ha hah." Satoshi said.

Neji gave him the daggers (eyes/glare).

"Just kidding heh I wouldn't do that to you…but Miss Hinata….how has she been doing…and how have you been doing?"

"She's been fine, I've been fine…"

"OH MY GOD!!!!WHAT IS THAT!?!?!?" Satoshi screamed with his eyes wide pointing at the bee.

"Tch I'm back! And I'm ready to kill you with my stinger…ah well I probably couldn't do that cause I would just simply kill myself…and this world is so great, I might as well eat you, oh wait, there's a second one, well I'd get all full, so I should chase it off of a cliff or something, but that would be painful, so I'll just eat you both at the same time…." the bee had said. Both Satoshi and Neji were running by now.

"Is…it even…possible… for… a bee …to ….eat ….something?" Satoshi asked while running as fast as possible and once trip but got back up quickly.

"I…su-ppose….so in….this….world!" Neji said running as fast as he could without tripping because he's just that graceful. They stopped when they were some distance from the bee. They were hiding behind a HUGE tree.

"Do you have your weapons?" Satoshi asked.

"No…"Neji replied, "They must have not been able to come here with me…"

"Here." Satoshi said passing the sword over to Neji. "You seem like a very talented person who can catch onto things on the first try. Well, now's the test. A life or death situation…well actually a life situation, I mean I know you can handle yourself but if you can't I'll be here to save you!"

"Yeah..." Neji took out the sword. Nice blade it was. The bee came and knocked over the tree while Neji and Satoshi jumped to different sides in the act of dodging. Neji tightened his grip. Satoshi glanced over to Neji and looked at the bee. He jumped up toward the top of it and slashed his right wing off. Neji's face brightened. He wants me to do that motion; he was showing me how to do it. Neji thought. He jumped up to the bee's face and slashed it off. When Neji hit the ground the bee was slowly floating down. When the bee hit the ground he slowly said, "My name is Melvin…!" while he was dying.

In a building,

A little boy with a baggy long-sleeved shirt and baggy pants with long black hair, about to the end of his neck, but most of it in his face, was doing a puzzle. He was a quiet boy, not shy but not outgoing, with absolutely no friends because he was not accepted, so all he does is do puzzles. He was a very smart kid, smarter than average. He was around 10 years old, almost 11. His parents had died when he was 6. While he put the last piece of the puzzle into this 10,000 piece puzzle. He paused. He frowned and continued to put in the piece. When he put it in, he slowly said to himself, "Three new guys are here."

Satoshi smiled at Neji and nodded. "Good job, but here, I want my sword back in exchange for these." Neji handed him the sword, and Satoshi gave him 8 daggers. "You don't know how to control the sword very well, you have more of a dagger motion, you were too stiff, and also, you didn't want the sword out very far, closing your attack in and making it weaker."

"Okay…but we have to find Hinata-sama and Naruto. I mean, if I'm here, then it must be destined that they're here."

Satoshi back away from Neji dizzy. "I-I know this place, where we are, I knew this would happen…"

"Where are we!?" Neji screamed.

"You may not believe me, but we're in Hinata's memory."


"Hinata, don't worry, I'll get you to remember me!" Naruto said running with Hinata on his back.

"I thank you very much for you helping me with my aching leg and all…but why are you helping a stranger? I mean, you know me, but I don't know you." Hinata said. She was in a plain white dress, and instead of the spike on the back of her head, her hair just flowed down to her shoulder. Naruto was in a black jacket, and jeans.

"Hinata, don't you remember me?! I'm Uzumaki Naruto, we just saw each other 5 minutes ago in that forest!"

"I-I'm sorry but I don't know anybody by that name…"

Naruto stopped and looked down. I slowly started liking her a lot more than Sakura, and when I loved her the fullest, this happens and she doesn't even know who I am! No! Why is my luck always like this!? My heart is slowly breaking, crumbling in other people's hands.

"Hey, are you alright?"

"Y-yeah…"

"Let's get you some water…" he said starting to walk aimlessly.


Sorry, I'm like obsessed with bounty hunters right now, they're just so cool!
