Chapter 4: Meet
"I need to be somewhere…" Hinata disappeared. "Feel free to mingle or pick fights. Ja!"
"I'm taking her advice." Lili got up.
"About the mingling or fighting?" Asuka asked.
"Maybe a little bit of both…" Lili shrugged.
"Okay. Good luck with that!" Maruya fake smiled. She, unlike the others, wasn't a fan of fighting and therefore wasn't as strong as her friends.
"I'm coming with you; you could get hurt." Maruya and Asuka insisted. They were the strongest of the group. Maruya was good for attacking; Asuka was good at hiding her feelings with a mask of emptiness and was also good at attacking.
"Suit yourself." Lili shrugged.
After a while of empty walking, they came across huge mansions. There was a sign nearby that read, 'Uchiha Compound'.
"Hey, wasn't the last name of the guy we saw yesterday Uchiha? I wonder if he lives here…" Lili trailed off.
"Hey, don't get carried away." Asuka warned.
"Carried away with what?" Someone asked, startling the girls.
"Oh!" They exclaimed.
"Yo." He said.
Asuka quickly regained her posture. "And who are you?" She pried.
"Calm down, I'm Sai." He introduced himself with pride.
"I see." Asuka nodded.
"You are?" He asked the girls.
"Lili." Lili said.
"Maruya." Said person nodded.
"…" Asuka remained silent.
"You…?" He asked.
"… … … Asuka. Asuka Machiwasa." She nodded.
"Pleasure." He stuck his hand out. Maruya and Lili shook it while Asuka remained reluctant.
"Sai-teme." Guess.
"Naruto." He stared straight ahead.
"Hey, it's you guys!" Naruto smiled recognising the girls from yesterday.
"I'm Asuka."
"Maruya."
"…"
"Is something wrong with your friend there?" He asked.
Asuka kicked Lili secretly.
"Ow! I mean, I'm Lili."
"I see."
"Hey, guys." A voice drawled.
"Hey, Shikamaru." They waved.
"And bye." He disappeared.
"…Okay…" Asuka trailed off.
"He's a very lazy person; get used to it." Naruto explained.
"Um… thanks…" Maruya blushed.
And she's blushing… Why? Asuka wondered.
Hmmm… Interesting… Lili smiled to herself.
A plan was hatching.
Okay, so I've got the character descriptions and pairings…
Narulili
Saisuka
Shikuya
Lili Montrose – Blond hair, blue eyes. The most immature and naïve girl out of all the Hoshigakure girls, but also one of the most cunning. She stands at five-foot-three, but wears heeled boots that are four inches high.
Asuka Machiwasa – Black hair, blue eyes. The most mature and mysterious girl out of all her friends, but can be surprisingly sweet and protective when others least expect it. She stands at five-foot-five, and wears heels that are only two inches high.
Maruya Machiwasa – Black hair, green eyes. Asuka's first cousin, and she shares many personality traits with her as well. She stands at five-foot-four, and doesn't wear heels.
