(A few weeks later...)
I awoke from my sleep by a knock at my door. I quickly got up and and answered the door. I saw Naruto and Hinata holding hands at my doorstep. Hinata had a box in her hand. "Hey, Yoko-Chan!" Naruto exclaimed. I smiled. Hinata then handed me the box. I then took the cover off and saw a red and ribbon inside. I picked it up and noticed that mine and Sasuke's names in kanji were put on the ribbon in black. "Naruto...Hinata, thank you so much!" I exclaimed.
I then tied the ribbon in my hair. Hinata smiled. "It's another trinket to go with your necklace, Yoko." Hinata said as she went closer to Naruto. I then looked down at my necklace. The crystal glistened in the sunlight. "Okay, guys. Be back in a sec." Naruto nodded and him and Hinata walked off. I then went into my room and got dressed. I put on my normal clothes, slipped on my arm socks, and lastly put on my headband. I turned and looked at the picture of Sasuke and me eating ice cream when we were twelve. I sighed.
I then put on my shoes and ran out the door. I then saw Lee sitting on a bench under a tree. "Lee-Kun!" I shouted. Lee then got up and gave me a hug. Lee then noticed my ribbon. "Looks like you've got a new ribbon. It's cute." "Oh, thanks," I blushed. I then turned and saw Akamaru run by. Kiba was trailing along. "Akamaru!" Kiba shouted. I then took Lee's hand and we began to walk down the road. I looked around the village with a happy face. "So, Lee, what do you-AAAHH!" I shouted. Someone, or something had jumped on me.
I then look over my shoulder and saw Moegi on my back. "Hi, Yoko!" She said. "M-Moegi-San? What is it?" I asked. "Well, Konohamaru was getting a piggyback ride from Naruto, so, I went to find you and do the same!" I sighed and said with a moan, "Okay, I'll give you a piggyback ride, Moegi-San," We then began to walk down the road once again. I began to think about when Itachi and Sasuke would give me piggyback rides, too. My head lowered the more I thought about it.
(Flash backing ten years ago...)
Sasuke and I were in the forest, learning how to throw shurikens and kunais. I was hiding in a tree, and Sasuke hid in a bush. I then gave the signal, and we dashed towards the wooden dummies. I jumped out of the tree and threw the kunais. They had struck the wooden dummy right where I wanted; Two in the head, three in the chest. I had then suddenly hit my leg on a thick tree branch and began to fall, full of fear. Sasuke then threw his shurikens at the dummy, ran in, and caught me. "You okay, Onee-Chan?" Sasuke asked. I nodded.
He then put me down and noticed that my left leg was bleeding. He quickly ran over to my black bag and pulled out some bandages. Sasuke quickly put ointment on it and wrapped it up. After doing so, he got up and smiled. "Can you walk, Onee-Chan?" I then began to walk a little. I began to limped after three steps. Sasuke then picked me up and put me on his back. "S-Sasuke, I'll be too heavy! It's okay!" Sasuke shook his head. He then grabbed the bag and began to walk back home.
After we reached the village, I looked at Sasuke and noticed that he was sweating. "Sasuke, please, I can walk by myse-" "No, I have to become stronger! I want to reached Nee-Chan's level!" Sasuke said as he wiped away the sweat. I looked up and saw Itachi walking down the road. "Sasuke, Yoko, what happened?" Itachi asked. "Onee-Chan fell out of a tree and got a small injuy, that's all." Sasuke replied. Itachi then walked up to me and picked me up off of Sasuke's back.
Itachi then looked at my leg. "It's minor, so you should be fine in a few days, Yoko." I nodded. "Let's go out for some ice cream!" I suggested. Itachi then nodded, put me on his back, and we began to walk to the ice cream place.
