Now, ONWARDS! Start no Jutsu!

I am walking to my room, contemplating kitty stuff. Yes, stuff. I still wonder if they will like gummy fish. Hmmm. Snap out of it Gin! Animals, especially kittens, ESPECIALLY injured kittens can not have candy! Stupid candy loving side. Hey! Mind, and logical side, I take that offensive! Also, you just called yourself stupid, since you are me! Hah! What do you have to say to that! Baka.
I have nothing to say to you, and YOU just called yourself stupid too!
…
Shut it.
Anyways, after my little, uhem, conversation with myself, I noticed I was already at the door. Whoops. Baka. Hey! I ignore my mind after that, and focus on the bigger issue at hand. The kittens. I just about to open the door when I hear a few loud and pained meows. Oh no. I turn the knob, and walk in, only to be met with the sight of four awake kittens.
" Oh, you guys are awake!" I exclaim. Soon after, I receive 'WTF' and 'Who-are-you" looks from four pairs of eyes. I just look on dumbly. I didn't know cats, much less kittens could give me those looks. I thought only people did that. Well, then again, animals are smarter... That's besides the point.
"I see that you guys are awake." I was met with the 'What-does-it-look-like-to-you' look.
"That wasn't very nice you guys. Well, then, I guess you don't want food then, huh, or want to know what happened to you, hmmm?"
They all looked at me like I was crazy, and honestly, I don't blame them. I am a certified crazy for a reason, but not legally (Shush! People must not know!).
I just stare at this weird girl, that oddly resemble the people of my clan, except the eyes. Those are very un-Uchiha. Hn. I was contemplating whether I should be 'nice' to get information or to just kill her. Hn. I guess I will go with option number 3. Just act like I usually do. So, I turn to her, and say what I say most.
"Hn." I meow. Wait. Meow! What the hell! I freak out for a second, then regain my mask. Hn. Life just got harder.
I look at the kitten that just 'hnned' at me. I just stare and stare, until I remember, he 'hnned' at me.
"Shut it, Duck-butt!" I practically hiss at him. Yeah, hiss.
Duck-butt? The only person I could think of that resembles a duck-butt is Sasuke... Wait... He's here? I started to snicker, as well as the two other kittens besides me. Hah! Duck-butt! Why didn't I think of that! Really, my nickname for Sasuke is 'Teme,' and even I find that weak! Snicker! Duck-butt! Gold!
Duck-butt? Where have I seen a duck's butt before? Hmmm... (Lightbulb!) I remember who! I just snicker, seeing as my best friends kid just got called Duck-butt, and by some stranger to boot! Duck-butt! Gold! I wonder how Mikoto-chan would react to his new nickname, Datte-Bane! Snicker! So wish I had a camera!
Duck-butt. Duck-butt. Where have I heard that before? Hmm. Didn't Kushina comment on how little Sasuke's hair resembled the back end of a duck? Sasuke. Sasuke. Ohhhhhh. Duck-butt! Snicker! I wonder how Fugaku would react to this! Snicker! He would probably have a face of indifference with a little tick mark, or, better yet, he will be fuming! Snicker! Priceless! Snicker!
I just stare at the girl. No one, and I mean no one, has ever called me that. Ever. She will pay. She can count on that. I turn around, and start plotting my revenge.
I just stare and stare, at the snickering kittens. They all seem, weird, but I like that! Soon enough, I join in their snickering fest, just now noticing what I called the little bluish black kitten.
We staying like this for a few moments, appreciating the moment of funniness. I then notice that the kitten that is being made fun of, has turned his back on me. My eye started to twitch. Damn cat.
" Mr. Duck-butt. I do not care if you do not like me. You are in my care and as such, you will respect me and I do not care if you are a cat. Do I make myself clear." I said in an eerily calm voice, laced with promises of pain, if he defies me. And just to prove my point, I gave him a glare worthy of an Uchiha.
I just stared at the girl. After a full blown minute of a glare, worthy of an Uchiha, (Admittedly), I turned away. No. I did not back down. No, I did not give up. NO, I am not intimidated. I was just tired, which is true. I was about to go back to sleep, ow! Stupid IV drip. That was, until she started to speak again.
"I know what you're thinking, you guys are in some stranger's home. You guys were treated for some injuries, some worse than others," I glance at the last two kittens that have yet to regain consciousness," and you are lying on my bed, snuggled up in blankets." I look at the older yellow and red kitties as I say this. They look almost bashful. The look on their faces makes me break out in a new fit of giggles and chuckles. I laughed my head off, while receiving 'your-a-basket-case' look from the other two kittens. I just laughed harder! Soon, I was done with my little laughing fit. Wiping a stray tear from my eye, I glanced at the kittens.
"Would you like to know everything I know thus far, retaining to your positions? Or should I wait until the other two regain consciousness?" I asked. They looked at each other first, except the bluish black one. He just refused to interact with them. Loner.
After a few seconds, they looked back at me and nodded once. I guess they want to know now.
" Let me guess, you want answers as soon as possible, and will most likely fill the other two," I point at the still sleeping felines," later, when they are awake and better. Correct?" I ask. They nod their heads, then the older yellow kitten and the bluish black kitty freeze.
' There were people (kittens?) injured?' Thought Minato.
'Wait, that means that...' The pieces fell in place for the younger Uchiha, and soon, he was trying to get over to the other kitten, that bore a striking resemblance to himself.
"Woah!" I exclaim, as I reach over to gently restrain the thrashing kitten. He seemed hell bent on reaching the other blackish kitten. The other kittens just looked on, not knowing how to react to this new piece of information.
"He's fine, just unconscious, with a slight fever and a minor case of breathing problems. I already took precautionary measures and have him on an IV drip and oxygen mask. He will be fine. Ok?" I say. This seems to calm him down somewhat, and he stops thrashing around. He seems tired, so I set him down and draped the blanket he was using, over him.
"I'm going to guess that you want your answers, huh, before falls asleep. Am I right?"
The kittens all nod their heads. I get comfy on the bed, being aware that I have four pairs of eyes watching my every move.
" I swear, you guys are acting like ninjas. " I say. They just give me the 'duh' face. I giggle, never having seen a kitten with the 'duh' face, as well as the 'WTF' and 'basket-case' look. I find it odd, but at the same time, I find it endearing and just plain fun! This is the awesomest group of kitties I have met!
"Well, where should I start. I know! I'll start at the beginning. Ok. So here is how it went. I was watching Naruto, this really awesome anime about this Jinjuriki named Naruto and his adventures over the span of the series," I paused here since I was getting these weird, looks from the kittens. I just shrugged it off and kept on going. "I just found out a while ago that Itachi was forced to kill his clan, (Mother fucking Danzo), and that Naruto's parents were the Yondaime, and Kushina Uzumaki, but it was kept a secret from him due to Iwa." As I said this, the kittens had a look of disbelief written on their fury faces. I ignored it and moved on. "Anyways, back on track. I just finished watching a movie based on the series. The fifth one to be precise, and I was hungry, so I went to make myself waffles. Yea, I know, waffles, but anyways, I burned them and that's around the time I heard a knock at the door. I went to check it out and that is when I discovered the box you guys were in. I took you in, treated you for any injuries, and-" I was interrupted by two loud meows. One belonged to the older yellow kitty, and the other belonged to Duck-butt. " Do you guys want to know about them?" I asked. They just nodded their heads. "well, the gray-black one was the first one I treated. He had a slight fever, and was having trouble breathing, as I have told you. The other one was a silver-gray one that had a head injury and lost a bit of blood. I set both of them on IVs and oxygen masks, to help with their conditions. They will be fine. Ok?" I said. This seemed to freak them out to some extent, but after a moment, they relaxed. Thank Jashin-sama!
'That was... creep. How does she know about that! I thought it was supposed to be kept hidden. A S-Rank Secret! Sigh. At least we got some more information about the situation. I am going to have to find out more on who the injured kittens are later. For now, I think we all need to rest.' As I said this, I glanced at all of our IVs. My blonde bangs hit my nose, making it twitch, and then, I sneezed.
'That was a bit creepy. Is she a spy or a stalker? (shiver) I'm tired, Datte bayo. I will think more about this later, as well as get more info on this. For now, ramen awaits me in my dreams! Yosh!' As I said this, I was already daydreaming about ramen. Ramen. Yum.
'That was a bit creepy. Its like she was there for there! That was... (shiver) I'm going ta go ta bed. This can wait for when I wake up, Datte bane.' With this, I got ready to enjoy some well deserved sleep, after the information that was crammed in ma brain.
'How does she know this? It was supposed to be a secret! And even Itachi said only a few people knew! And two of those people are dead! Sigh. For now, I received adequate information. I will rest and get more information later.' As I said this, I glanced at the other black kitten. Itachi. I hope he's ok, and with that, I fell asleep.
I was just about to say more when I noticed that all the kittens were practically asleep.
"So Cute!" I cooed. I quickly reset the blankets that fell, checked up on the other two kittens, and let them enjoy some well deserved sleep. I quickly made my way out and got ready for the start of a very long day.
Hey everyone! I'm Sorry! I had a bit of writer's block and yeah... Gome! Anyways, hoped you enjoyed the chapter!( I think this is my longest chapter! YAY!) Drop a review if you can! Arigatou!
