Alright! Here I am and here's chapter two!

Naomi opened her eyes. The bright rays of the sun were spilling through her windows. She sat up and rubbed her eyes with the back of her hand. Shifting uncomfortably, she remembered that she went to bed last night with her wet clothes on.

Great… that was a very fine way to start the day.

Naomi stood up and walked groggily to the door. The doorknob turned and her lone couch faced her. Suddenly, the silence was broken by a cat, coming through the open window. Oh great, she thought. What kind of ninja would forget the close the window?

She mentally slapped herself and walked toward the cat. Just then, she heard screaming and the sound of feet on mud from outside.

"Get the cat!" a boy's voice said.

Naomi jumped as her door fell down. A small ninja lunged itself at the cat, but ended up tackling her instead. They glided across the rough un- carpeted floor. Naomi ended up scraping her elbow and hitting her head on the wall.

Just great.

The small ninja, whom Naomi considered calling Minnie, immediately stood up and chased after the cat. He threw a kunai at it… then some shurikens… and then a kunai with an explosive tag.

There was a loud bang, and as the smoke cleared away, Naomi saw a huge gaping hole in the middle of her apartment. She could see the person below her.

It was a kind elderly woman named Chinatsu. She had dropped Naomi a sandwich before she set out yesterday.

Chinatsu smiled and waved. "Well, hello, Nami, dear…"

"Hello! Oh, and its Naomi," she said. She had told the elder the same thing yesterday, but she didn't think Chinatsu would remember her name, anyway. On the other hand, she didn't mind being called Nami. It sounded okay.

Minnie and the cat were already gone.

Then, she remembered. Naomi's eyes immediately darted to the wall clock.

6:49; it mocked.

"OH NO! I'M GONNA BE LATE… AGAIN!"

After a rushed breakfast, which was just some cookies and half- cooked ramen, Naomi was on her way. The only problem was… she didn't know where. She had forgotten to ask the Hokage.

Her absentmindedness, yet again, had gotten the best of her during their 'little talk' last night. She just couldn't help staring at Tsunade's set. I mean come on… what size are those? She thought.

She turned a right when she reached the corner and bumped into a dog. Well, it looked like a dog, except it was pretty huge.

"Aw…" she said, patting him on the head. She had absolutely no idea if he was dangerous. If he wasn't… then that would be fine. If we were, he'd probably growl and bite her hand off.

Then she noticed it. It was a person, riding on the dog's back. He was wearing a dark- colored jacket and dark- colored pants. His forehead protector was of course, on his forehead and he had messy brown hair. On his cheek were red… fangs? Naomi couldn't quite tell.

"Hey!" he greeted.

"Hello," she said. How could she have possibly missed him? He was sitting on top of the dog. Was she going blind?

He jumped off the dog's back and smiled, exposing fangs. This time, Naomi knew they were fangs.

"I'm Kiba, and this is Akamaru," he said holding out his hand.

Naomi shook it. "I'm Naomi…" she paused. She had to admit, her last name was a bit unique. Then she shrugged off the idea.

"Naomi Kimimaru."

Sure enough, a minute later, Kiba's smile went broader. Instantly, as he saw her expression change, he frowned.

"Uh… sorry. It's just that, you're last name's sort of… new to me."

"It's okay… I get it all the time. But usually, people aren't so nice. They just blurt out to my face that my last name's weird… or something."

"Well, see you sometime!" he said, hopping back on Akamaru's back.

Naomi waved and walked away.

After fifteen minutes of useless walking, she slapped herself. Why didn't she just ask Kiba if he could help her find her new teammates.

It's going to be a loooooooong day, she thought.

Well, done! Sorry if I made it sort of pointless and I'm sorry if I made Naomi a little too absentminded. Ah well, nobody's perfect. I just hope Naomi finds her teammates soon.
