He walked down the street with his use-to-be Anbu partner. His extremely layered grey hair, which would usually be all over his face in the wind, was held down by his grey and dull brown baseball cap. His eyes, brought out by all the grey, are a bright brown. A red bandana, that was underneath his hat, brought a bright color to his otherwise dull cloths. A claw scratch on his cheek makes him look like a badass, well so he thought. A brown button up shirt, buttoned only half way, covered his torso. Silver chains glistened in the sun as they hung around his neck. Brown cargo pants covered his legs while grey converse were on his feet. He raised his arms, resting his hands behind his head. He looked smugly at the girl next to him. As their eyes locked, she huffed in annoyance and he smirked. She looked away first giving him the perfect opportunity to admire her physique.

Her black hair blowing wildly in the wind only added to the since of wildness about her. Her fuzzy wolf ears slightly down so the wind wouldn't bend them back. She wore a red tie loosely around her neck; its tip reached the middle of her stomach. A slightly loose white tank top covered her torso, and hugged her in all the right places. It reached the middle of her stomach. A horizontally striped spaghetti strapped tank underneath that, reached to her navel. It showed her deliciously well toned stomach. The Ookami tribe tattoo wrapped jaggedly around her right shoulder and bicep while black and white striped arm warmers covered her arms from halfway up her bicep to the base of her palm with black fingerless gloves covering her hands. Her dark wash jeans hung low on her hips with a studded belt in its loops. Her midnight black tail was lazily swaying slightly in the wind. Her feet were covered with white converse.

He couldn't help his eyes being drawn to her more feminine features. He is a guy after all. Also, He couldn't help the smile that snuck its way onto his lips as she sniffed, rather visibly at that. The cute little nose on her face twitching with every intake. Her wolf 'pup' lay comfortably on her head with her hind legs resting on her shoulders. Her ears swiveled forward, her nose twitched as she sniffed the air and a smile aloud a fang to show.

"Come on Daichi! I'm starving!" she said as she turned her head back towards him. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at him eager to eat, even if it is ramen.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm coming," He said with a smirk as he caught up with her. They entered the ramen bar together and sat at a booth by a window, so if a messenger needed to find Daichi, he could. Their waiter came, they ordered, and got their food several minutes later. Now they were enjoying "catching up" with each other.

"I swear I'm going to lose my hearing before next week. He talks so fricken loud! Even his whisper is a yell!" Rakuria said waving her arms above her head to emphasize her point. Daichi chuckled at her unusually flustered stated.

"OI! LOOK ITS RAKURIA-CHAN! BELIEVE IT!" The two best friends heard as they sat in their booth. Rakuria slammed her head onto the table. It sent vibrations out never to return. Oh how she wished the vibrations through the earth would come back to her. She let out a groan and mumbled a, "Speak of the devil…" Daichi chuckled again and looked over to where the yell came from. He decided that he would evaluate his Rakuria's new teammate…after all she was HIS team mate first.

His eyes scanned over the blonde guy walking this way. His blonde hair was spiking in all directions and the whiskers on his cheeks gave him away as the boy they've had to protect on several occasions. The black and orange jumpsuit he wore screamed who he was, Naruto. Blue ninja shoes covered his feet. Daichi let another chuckle escape as he snuck a glance at Rakuria, whose head was still firmly pressed against the table. It was as if she thought it would protect her from her new teammate.

He looked back up at Naruto. His eyes darkened as he noticed another guy fallowing him. He was an Inuzuka. His brown hair a mess, going were ever it wished. He had two red fang marks covering his cheeks declaring what clan he came from. His grey, fur hooded jacket was open revealing that a fishnet shirt was the only thing covering his torso. A leaf village headband was tied around his forehead and was cover slightly by some hair. His pants were baggy and a light brown. He wore his black ninja shoes. He notice the gigantic white dog fallowing behind him, showing Daichi that the Inuzuka was the alpha of the dog. The dog was slightly bigger than Raikou. Rakuria is going to be mad about that he thought as his eyes narrowed slightly as the two boys got closer.

Mean while, Rakuria studied the second boy as they walked closer by both sound, sound waves, and foot vibrations. A low growl escaped her throat causing the boy and his dog to stiffen slightly, but they kept walking. She growled again, a little more loudly than last time, while straightening up. Raikou went and sat in her lap trying to calm her alpha down. Why her territorial growl didn't keep him away, she didn't know. All she knew is that if he tried something, she was going to kill him. No hesitation. She could feel her ears flatten slightly in preparation for attack.

Her eyes moved towards Daichi as she tried to kill the smug look of his face by sending him a glare. Oh, she just knew he was laughing at her on the inside. He was so enjoying this and she hated him for it right now.

When Naruto said he had a new teammate and thought he might know her, Kiba was expecting one of his cousins or someone like that. He was not expecting the girl they were walking towards right now. SHE WAS AN OOKAMI! How could Naruto not see the Ookami tribe markings on her arm!? Just how!? He has never seen an Ookami this close before without being almost beheaded. He didn't even know there were Ookamis in Kohana.

A low growl entered his ears, one that clearly said, "Mine dog. Go away!" His spine stiffened in response and his instincts kicked in yelling at him to "put the bitch in her place." So, instead of doing the very…enticing things his instincts were providing the ideas of, he decided to keep walking. He saw her muscles contract and release as she sat up, letting another territorial growl escape her throat.

He watched as her midnight black hair glistened in the sun. Her hair was cut in a way that added to the wildness vibe she gave off. Her black wolf ears blended with her hair and where pulled back as if in preparation for an attack. Her side bangs slightly covered her pale yellow eyes. Her full, pink rose petal lips were pulled back in a snarl, revealing a sharp fang. Her eyes drew him in. They called to him. His eyes flicked toward the direction that her eyes were facing.

Brown eyes clashed against black ones. Kiba was taken aback by the possessiveness in those brown eyes. Did the Ookami know that this guy considered her his? Obviously not, considering she looked back at him and Naruto without challenging his status.

"What's up Rakuria!?" Naruto yelled causing the two with heightened senses to cringe at the noise. Rakuria adverted her gaze from the dog boy and looked towards Naruto.

"I was enjoying a nice lunch with my old teammate Daichi. Oh that reminds me. Daichi, Naruto. Naruto, Daichi." She said while gesturing towards each guy when she said their name.

"Really? You were her old teammate? Then wh-" Naruto was cut off by Daichi.

"Yup. Has she shown you how kick ass she can be?" Daichi asked him, smirking. Rakuria reached across the table lightly smacking his arm. To the two boys it looked like they were a couple, and for some reason Kiba didn't like it at all.

"Oh! Rakuria! This is Kiba!" Rakuria turned towards the dog boy as Naruto gestured towards Kiba. It still surprised him that you would never know she was blind unless she told you. Naruto watched as she used her breath to 'see' Kiba. He watched as all her other little 'tricks' allowed her to see him.

Naruto looked at Kiba's reaction, something he should've done when they walked up, but he was too excited to see Rakuria out of training or a mission. He watched as Kiba looked her over as she 'looked' him over. He watched as Kiba blushed slightly under Rakuria's intense gaze. It was at that exact moment that: Daichi officially hated Kiba, Kiba was almost over whelmed by his instinct, Rakuria felt like she wasn't being told something, and Naruto began forming a plan…
