Chapter 2
Frenzy- here's this week's chapter. I wanna thank my unofficial beta Kaowaul. And the two reviewers: heartlessRayne and forever-sweet. You guys made me so excited to put the next chapter up. Enjoy.
Lunch ended with both Naruto and Sasuke telling Ko they'd walk her to her next class.
Kayla was starting to get extremely annoyed but Kina popped in front of her and grabbed her timetable. "Awesome we have the whole afternoon together!"
Kayla couldn't decide whether this was a good thing or not. Kina was a great friend but she was annoyingly loud.
"Let's go. If we're late Anko-sensei will be mad. Come on TenTen-chan!" Kina said pulling Kayla away. Kayla watched her sister for as long as she could and she saw Sasuke send her a smirk before she was pulled into the school and down the hall. TenTen was nice and Kayla immidiately got into a debate over sharp weapons vs. blunt weapons on the way to class.
When they did get into the class Kina pointed out the teacher and Kayla's jaw dropped. Anko was in the middle of arranging a large display of weapons but it was what she was wearing that had Kayla near blushing, "Is she not- What's that- Is that only fishnet?" she whispered reffering to the shirt under the techers open trench coat.
Kina looked at the teacher again, "I never noticed"
Kayla mentally facepalmed and sat down at one of the work tables.
The door opened and Kina bounced excitedly to the guy that just entered. "Kanky-kun" she chirped.
Kayla looked over, it was the guy with purple face paint from her art class. She didn't feel like being stared at again so she turned back to the front only to find another familiar face.
"Hey, un" Deidara said
"Oh. Hey Deidara-san, Sasori-san" she said seeing Sasori beside him as well.
Before either could say anything else the bell rang signalling classes to start. Kina sat down at the worktable beside Kayla's as the teacher looked at each student. "Alright Maggots! I'm Anko and this is weapons class so I don't want any idiots goofing off and messing around. These weapons are dangerous and anyone stupid enough to forget will be kicked out. Everyone get a sharpening kit and a dull kunai off the desk and practice while I do the attendance." She nearly yelled. Kayla liked her style.
By the end of class a few people had been kicked out, true to Anko's words, and Kina had introduced Kayla to Kankuro, who she found out wasn't trying to be creepy by staring, only curious.
At the end of class Deidara caught her again and told her to meet up with him after school so she could meet his friends which she agreed to ignoring to mutterings of her other friends. Kankuro, TenTen, Kina and Kayla walked to their next class together, which the three also shared, it was a popular course apparently.
They had to split up to the change rooms. Kayla changed to gym clothes where no one could see her and started braiding her hair. She saw Sakura and Temari changing as well. Most of the girls were changing to shorts and t-shirts. Kayla had long sleeves and pants that were made of light cotton so she wouldn't overheat.
She walked into the gym with Temari and Kina. There was a good amount of people warming up and a larger version of Lee shouting instructions at people. Kayla was surprised out of all reason.
"You get used to Guy-sensei don't worry." Temari said seeing the look on her face. "Gaara, Kankuro!" she called to two guys. They made their way over. Temari introduced them to Kayla as her brothers and they all started warming up. Kayla realized that they were both in morning classes with her.
They paused in their warm up at the sound of two voices.
"Lee-kun!"
"Guy-sensei!"
"Lee-kun!"
"Guy-sensei!"
"Lee-kun!"
"Guy-sensei!"
"Lee-kun!"
"Guy-sensei!"
It continued and Kayla looked at Temari. "What's with the sunset?"
"I don't really know" Temari replied
"Alright my youthful students!" Guy said zealously "Let the flames of youth exhilarate you and run 10 laps! Then break into youthful partners and spar using only hand-to-hand combat!"
This was met with "Yes Guy-sensei!" from Lee and groans from everyone else.
During the 10 laps Kayla decided two things. She hated running and she was going to give Kina an attitude adjustment as soon as they could spar.
Kina had decided to use the 10 laps to easily run backwards facing Kayla just out of reach talking and giving Kayla a headache.
After everyone was done running, the pairs of sparring partners were put into lines facing each other with plenty of space between each so the fights wouldn't interfere with neighboring battles. Kayla and Kina had paired up on Kayla's request, to Kayla's right Shikamaru and Choji were paired and to the left was Temari and TenTen.
"Start!" Guy yelled.
Kayla rushed at Kina blocking out any distraction of the fights around her. Kina barely dodged and the game began. Kayla on the attack trying to find an opening and Kina dodging and twisting every which way trying to tire her out and making it look like a dance.
Finding her opening she faked a punch to deke then dropped to the floor kicking out her legs and tripping Kina. When Kina fell forwards Kayla grabbed her wrists and locked them behind her back.
"OK I give!" Kina said feeling Kayla start to raise her wrists to between her shoulderblades.
They stood up and looked around, most people were finishing their sparring.
Guy looked around the room and yelled out, "Alright my youthful students, everyone who started with their back to the wall, move to the right to your next partner." He said.
Kina's line moved and now Temari was standing infront of Kayla. "We did say we needed to spar" Kayla grinned
Guy sensei looked to make sure everyone had their partners then yelled, "Start!"
Kayla sprung forward trying to not give Temari any time to think. Temari stayed right in the way of the charge grabbing the tops of Kayla's sleeves and rolling back with the momentum. Temari kicked her foot to meet Kayla's hip and threw her over with a perfect tomoe nage.
Kayla landed flat on her back with the wind knocked out of her. She groaned rolling on the floor trying to breathe.
Temari got up and stuck her hand out to help Kayla up. Kayla took in grudgingly as soon as she could breathe again, "That was a short match"
"You shouldn't be so predictable" Temari said.
"I'll remember that" Kayla coughed. They sat and waited for everyone else to finish, talking quietly and catching their breaths.
"Last Switch!" Guy sensei yelled.
Kayla and Temari shook hands and Temari moved to fight Shikamaru. Kina was standing with Kankuro on the other side of Temari waiting to start. Looking to her other side she saw TenTen and Neji preparing to battle and further on Naruto and Sasuke. 'oh the irony' she thought cynically. Streching and readying herself once more she noticed that her opponent was now Temari's little brother, Gaara. She grinned as Guy sensei yelled "Start" and she jumped into battle, not full force like she had with Temari but enough to threaten. The battle was an even one, they both attacked only to be blocked by the other at every point. Neither making any progress. They jumped back from each other catching their breaths. Guy looked at the clock, noticing it was almost time to end class and yelled out, "finishing up your battles, you may use any jutsus or specialties in youthful sportsmanship. No going for the kill in class"
To Kayla's left chakra strings flew everywhere from both Kankuro and Kina. Some a firey red, some glowing blue.
Kayla grinned and tried to summon her clan's extra strength. Her irises turned black before she had all she could grasp. She burst forward with extra speed and savagery ready to win and a burst of sand sent her flying back into the wall. Gaara was smirking. She growled bounding forward to attack again and the sand stopped her from getting too near. Tentrils of sand attacked and she weeved between them trying to get close enough to hit the red-head. One of the tendrils shot from the floor straight up and Kayla barely blocked it with her forearms ripping her shirt sleeves and causing a bleeding wound. She saw Gaara's smirk grow as she felt anger course through her making her vision more red. Their attacks became more vicious and it was clear if either got through the others defence there was going to be more blood spilled. Vaugely she thought she heard a bell ring but both kept fighting.
That is until the loud commanding voice of Guy sensei paired with a well placed leaf-whirlwind sent them both away from each other. Kayla shook her head changing her eye colour back to the dull blue and clearing the angry haze and Gaara slowly dropped his sand.
"I called matte. You two go to the principle and fix that unyouthful attitude now."
Kayla sighed trying to tie her sleeves back together over the wounds, "Like hell I am. It's the end of the day I'm going home" she murmured to herself. She hoped that no one noticed her flushed face because she was accutely aware of the way her skin was tingling. She hadn't fought with that much passonate emotion in a long time.
"Lee-kun, you will escort both of them to the office" Gai sensei said catching her comment
Lee jumped forward at the order, "I will not fail you Gai-sensei!"
Gaara shot her a glare and she felt her skin crawl even more. The walk to the office would have been silent if it weren't for Lee listing off youthful reasons to listen to Guy sensei.
They got to the office and Shizune pointed the to a door that had a plaque that said –Vice Principle Ibiki-. Gaara walked in and Kayla had a sneeking suspicion he'd done this before. Kayla followed after him an the VP watched them as they sat at the chairs across him desk. Kayla couldn't help but stare. He was bald but that was probably due to the scars and burn marks adorning his scalp. Gaara zoned out waiting for it to end.
"I was told you disobeyed Guy in class" Ibiki said in an authoritative voice. There was silence as neither student answered. "We all want to go home. Either you tell me what happened or we can stay here till its dealt with." He said more threateningly.
Kayla looked at the clock on the office wall. Munasshi would be waiting to pick her and Ko up and she still needed to meet up with Deidara. She kept quiet thinking over the actions that got her into this mess. 'Getting lost in a fight! What an ameteur mistake' she thought harshly.
A knock at the door broke her thought and Munasshi and Temari poked their heads in. "I'm here to pick up my sister" Munasshi stated
Kayla could've danced. 'Praise the all knowing sister'
Ibiki looked like he had a problem with that arangment but Munasshi continued, "be assured sir that she won't be getting off easy because of this. I will personally make sure of that"
Kayla stopped her mental rejoice.
"Gaara too" Temari said adding in her two cents and looking crossly at her brother.
Ibiki nodded and they all left. Kayla shot a glare at Gaara. 'It was his fault for drawing me into the fight' she thought angrily. Gaara and Temari left for the student parking and Kayla and Munasshi continued to the front of the school where Ko was alreay waiting in the Mustang.
Kayla looked around and saw Deidara and Sasori with a group of people. "I'll be right back O-nee. I need to talk to someone" Kayla said walking towards Deidara.
Munasshi nodded and continued to the car.
Kayla approched the group cautiously, "Deidara-san? Sasori-san?"
She inwardly cringed when 10 pairs of eyes looked over at her.
She heard a silver haired guy say "who the fuck is this?" before Deidara came to her aid.
He stood beside her and faced the group, "This is Kayla. Kayla-chan this is Hidan, Kakuzu, Kisame, Itachi, Tobi, Zetsu, Konan and Pain, yeah" he said pointing to person in turn. They greeted her and Deidara slung an arm around her shoulders, "So how about you hang out with us, un?"
Kayla removed his arm and looked back at her waiting sisters. She saw some other students eyeing the group nervously and grinned. She nodded and waved at her sisters to tell them to leave without her. Kayla and the rest walked to a black van she breifly noticed the red cloud bumpersticker
"Why the fuck is another slut coming with us" Hidan grunted getting into the back of the van.
"Whats a matter old man? Afraid a girl is gonna kick your ass" Kayla said following into the van. Kakuzu laughed. Pain chuckled as he started driving with Konan in shotgun.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN OLD MAN YOU FUCKING HEATHEN!" Hidan shouted. Everyone laughed.
Tobi pointed at Hidan's hair and giggled, "Tobi thinks she means your gray hair Hidan-san!"
"Its silver you assholes! Its always been that colour!" they drove to the mall and all of them agreed to go to the arcade. Then to the art store and then they just walked around getting to know each other. Kayla was surprised when she noticed that almost everywhere they went cleared out soon after they got there but the others didn't seem to be bothered by it.
Later that night the van stopped infront of Kayla's house and she got out of the packed van. "Damn that was fun! See you later" she waved walking up the path to her house. Apparently half of them had already graduated and only stopped by the school to pick up Deidara, Sasori, Tobi, Hidan and Kakuzu. Kayla couldn't stop grinning. She finally had some friends that didn't fawn over her sister. She walked in the door and snuck up to her room hoping not to gain any attention of her family. As she opened her bedroom door the hall light turned on and both her sisters looked at her with their arms crossed. Kayla sighed in defeat and all three walked into her room. Kayla and sat on her bed and Ko hopped beside her while Munasshi sat at Kayla's computer desk.
Munasshi crossed her legs and watched Kayla stare around the room.
"I do need to talk to you about your fight today." She said keepng her voice even. "I don't know what or if you were thinking at the time but if you lose your head in a fight again I'll have to tell dad to put you through more training."
Kayla's head snapped forward and she stared wide eyed at her sister.
"But," she continued, "since this is the first time it's happened we'll keep it between us three."
Kayla relaxed again and ran a hand through her hair looking down into her lap.
"Imouto" Munasshi spoke softly. Kayla looked at her. "Those people you were with are not people that can be trusted"
Kayla glared, "Just cause they're older than me doesn't mean they can't be trusted"
"No Kayla really" Ko said trying to explain, "they really aren't good people. They're part of a-" Kayla cut her off
"No Ko. Who really isn't a good person is Sasuke. I need to tell you about him before he gets you"
"Before he gets me?" Ko laughed
"Do you remember when I came up here 3 years ago to visit Kina for a few weeks?" Kayla asked. Both her sisters nodded. "I met Sasuke back then. He had me wrapped around his every whim within a week. If it suits him he'll throw you under a bus. He'll do anything, no matter who it hurts, to gain power. Ko you need to stay away from him. He has more issues than the X-men comics."
There was silence in the room for what seemed like hours. Ko grabbed Kayla's shoulders and hugged her. Kayla sat stifly in the hug. "Kayla, thank you for caring, but I can handle boys. Don't worry"
Kayla rolled her eyes. 'great'
"so if you don't bother me about my guy friends, I won't bother you about your gang friends, ok?" Ko said sweetly hopping off the bed and pulling Munasshi to the door.
Kayla blinked a few times trying to process Ko's quick change from calming to bubbly. "ok?"
"good" Ko said skipping out.
'I guess I'll have to watch both of them now' Munasshi thought calmly shutting the door and walking back to her room.
Kayla sat in her bed silently for a few minutes before it hit her, "Gang?"
