When Team Asuma got back to the Village Kurenai Yuhi was standing there waiting on them. She looked pretty nervous which was saying allot when this woman was known for being mostly calm. A light shined in her eyes for a moment when she first seen Asuma Sarutobi walking up the dirt road to the Entrance of the Hidden Leaf but just as quickly as it came it want just as fast, However not before Namay Sarutobi noticed.
"Hey Kurenai, What brings you out here... Were you waiting on us to get back?" Namay asked her knowing good and well that she was indeed doing that.
A slight blush appeared in Kurenai's cheeks before she noticed something about her friend Namay Sarutobi.
" What happened to your back Namay... You were supposed to have a simple escort mission with that Drunken Woman and her Husband."
" Oh this." Namay said while twisting around showing her bandaged back batter to Kurenai Yuhi.
" That is nothing... A flesh wound at most which Asuma already took care of with his medical kit... It's No big deal..."
"How can you say that Lady Namay...That wound wasn't even meant for you, The enemy was aiming at me, Had you not shoved me out of the way taking the blast from the paper bomb, I would be in a massive amount of pain myself and that would be a major drag." said Shikamaru Nara.
" Right Shikamaru but I did do all that and It's over with now, So can we just drop this already and not make it into a bigger deal then it is...Oh and for the record I don't think you were the intended target... I think that Giant Shuriken with the paper bomb attached was meant for Mr. Kunocky and you just happened to move into his place at the last second while you were trying to eavesdrop on mine and Asuma's private conversation but I probably still would of done the same thing even if you really were the target, Any of you ex for Ms. Kunocky... Now her, I would of probably shoved in front of that Weapon " Namay said while straightening her posture back to normal.
That last part got Namay an odd look from Kurenai, which Namay seen and mouthed the words: "I'll tell you all about it later."
Kurenai nodded and said instead: "How about we all go gets some Barbecue on me to celebrate your successful mission."
As soon as Choji Akimichi heard the word Barbecue he took off running yelling out: "BARBECUE, HERE I COME!"
Everyone else just walked slowly behind him until they reached the restaurant where Choji was already seated ordering allot of meat.
" What took you so long Slowpokes, I done ordered three of the meats special just for me, Hee Hee."
" Oh yeah leave it to you Choji to actually run when food is involved, Any other time you're the slow one... Anyways Lady Namay, Now that we have time could you please give me those highlights we talked about?" pleaded Ino Yamanaka with her hands together in a begging manner.
"Something tells me you are not going to let that idea go, Are you Ino?" asked Namay and when Ino give her a grin while shaking her head no, Namay gave in and agreed to highlight the girl's hair if for no other reason then not to be annoyed by the hyper blonde she already had one of those to deal with in Naruto Uzumaki.
Namay scooted into the booth next to Shikamaru and Ino seat on the end next to her, Across for them Asuma and Kurenai took a seat next to the already seated chowing down Choji.
Namay reached into her pocket and pulled out a small bottle full of purple liquid and a tiny paintbrush setting them on the table near the small burner where Choji was cooking the meat he ordered.
She want to opened the bottle when Asuma asked:" Namay, You sure It's such a good idea to leave something like that near an open flame... What's in that stuff anyways?"
"Relax Asuma, What kind of idiot do you take me for, I used this in my own hair why on Earth would I add in something that would burn off my hair... This is my own special blend of ingredients and I am not about to share their contents with anyone but rest assure all are fire proof... Also Ino this will last for at least an entire year, Are you 100% sure you want this coloring in your hair, I only ask because you strike me as the type of person who is very vain about their appearance and something like this would feel like the end of the world if it came out wrong to a teenage girl such as yourself."
"Yes I am sure Lady Namay and I totally trust you, just look at what you done to your own gorgeous hair and that had to be hard to see by yourself but it came out so incredible looking... I have no doubt that mine will come out just as good if not better then yours... So go for it!"
Ino Yamanaka started giggling like the school girl that she was which annoyed Namay a little bit but not enough to really make her do anything about it, so instead Namay just shrugged her shoulders and opened her bottle letting the grape aroma fill the air as she dipped her tiny brush in, Then started painting purple stripes down Ino's large bang that she always wore hanging in front of her eyes.
The purple dipped paintbrush stopped in mid-stoke when Namay spotted the sliver fluff of hair she knew all to well walking through the door with a golden blonde in bright orange on his trail already yelling up a storm.
" KAKASHI SENSEI, WHY DO YOU HAVE TO TRAIN THAT JERK SASUKE AND NOT ME... IT'S NOT FAIR, WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO TO GET READY FOR THE FINAL ROUND OF THE CHUNIN EXAMS!?"
Kakashi Hatake let out a very heavy sigh while rubbing his throbbing temples trying to ease the headache that Naruto Uzumaki brought on, all morning he had to listen to Naruto going on and on about his decision to train Sasuke Uchiha and not him. Kakashi was growing really tired of it and very close to snapping on the young ninja.
" Look Naruto, Give it a rest already no matter how much you complain I am not going to change my mind and besides you done have a replacement trainer in Master Jiraiya... It's not like I am completely leaving you hanging in the wind so to speak... Now will you please leave me alone long enough to enjoy a meal in some peace and quiet."
"Good Luck with that Kakashi, I doubt that loudmouthed punk even knows the meaning of the word quiet." remarked Namay Sarutobi as she moved her brush again finishing up Ino's bangs.
"Oh Namay You're back already, I barely even noticed you were gone... I take it Team Ten had a successful mission." Kakashi came over to their table with Naruto right behind him.
" What are you talking about Kakashi Sensei, You have been doing nothing but Pining over her since the time she left up until about five minutes ago when you seen her though the window of this place...That's also why you said you wanted to came in here for lunch today."
Laughter erupted from everyone sitting at the table except for Namay since she rarely laughs at anything anymore but everyone else, Asuma, Choji, Ino, Shikamaru and even Kurenai let loose at Kakashi Hatake expense as Naruto Uzumaki looked on confused completely oblivious to what he just set in motion for his teacher.
" You really need to stop Kakashi, I will not be returning your feelings... I should of never let it go as far as it has already, Let me make this perfectly clear to you, Nothing and I mean NOTHING matters more to me then making that Snake Bastard pay for all that he has done and preventing him for doing any father damage... I have no time nor need for such meaningless things such as a romantic relationship or even love for that matter... Going on this trip with Asuma made me realize that I don't belong in this village anymore, My time here is but a passing phase until my next opportunity to strike arises... At this point, Only Orochimaru's Death by my hand will satisfy me."
That got everyone to stop their laughter and got Namay allot of odd frighten looks in the possess which she expected and could of cared less after her conversation with Jiraiya she made a vow to herself, that she would try her best not to get involved any farther with anyone in the village until she had her revenge because as far as Namay was concerned she done let herself become to distracted as it is and she needed to put a stop to it now before they tore down anymore of her walls.
"BULLSHIT CRAZY LADY!" Naruto called out to Namay as he made his way over to them so that he was face to face with her.
"I DON'T KNOW WHO YOU THINK YOU'RE FOOLING WITH THAT STUPID ASS SPEECH... YOU REALLY EXPECT ALL OF US TO BELIEVE YOU CAN JUST STOP CARING ABOUT YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS...T HAT YOU TURNED YOUR FEELINGS OFF AS IF THEY WERE NOTHING MORE THEN A FAUCET HANDLE THAT YOU CAN FLIP BACK & FORTH... GEEZ LADY,YOU ARE SO FULL OF SHIT AND YOU KNOW IT AS WELL AS I DO... BELIEVE IT!"
Namay throw her bottle down on the table splattering purple dye everywhere before she stood up getting right into Naruto's face as close as she could without actually touching him.
" I DON'T GAVE DAMN WHAT YOU BELIEVE, YOU ANNOYING LITTLE PEST... I AM SO SICK AND TRIED OF LISTENING TO YOUR FUCKING MOUTH, WHISKERS... BELIEVE IT, BELIEVE IT... DAMMIT CAN'T YOU SAY ANYTHING OTHER THEN THAT STUPID ASS CATCH-PRAISE OR ABOUT YOU BECOMING THE NEXT HOKAGE... OH AND FOR THE RECORD IF YOU KEEP ACTING LIKE THE SMART-MOUTHED LITTLE BRAT THAT YOU ARE NOW, YOU WILL NEVER BECOME HOKAGE!"
The anger in Namay's voice was ferrous enough that Ino quickly jumped up out of her seat taking herself out of the crossfire of both Namay and Naruto since she found herself sitting in the middle of them.
Asuma Sarutobi the other person sitting kind of in between Naruto and Namay didn't run like Ino Yamanaka instead he put up both his hands trying to regain some peace by saying:
" Hey now, Let's all calm down here and..."
That was all Asuma got out before both the angry teen and the angry woman turned their head at the same time, giving him the exact same hateful look and even yelled the very same thing at poor Asuma:"SHUT UP & STAY OUT OF IT!"
Asuma Sarutobi slowly brought his hands back down as he stared at his sister and the boy in front of her, He couldn't help but notice how they seemed to look allot a like in that one fleeting moment as they both yelled at him especially around their stunning blue eyes. He looked over at his secret lover Kurenai Yuhi to see if she noticed as well and it was clear from her expression that she had, So he turned to Kakashi Hatake who must of knew what he was thinking because he simply nodded his head Yes, answering Asuma's unasked question.
"WHY DO YOU HATE ME SO MUCH OR YOURSELF FOR THAT MATTER? YOU HAVE TO KNOW THAT BURYING YOURSELF BEHIND ALL THOSE THICK WALLS THAT YOU HAVE SET UP AROUND YOUR HEART, IN ORDER TO KEEP PEOPLE OUT IS NO WAY TO LIVE LIFE... SERIOUSLY NAMAY SARUTOBI WHAT IS SO WRONG WITH YOU, THAT YOU FEEL IT IS NECESSARY TO SHOVE EVERYONE YOU LOVE AWAY LIKE YOU DO?"
Naruto Uzumaki relaxed his clinched fists now that he finally got that off his chest because he had wanted to say that to Namay for a very long time and now that he had it out in the open he was becoming less agitated.
Namay on the other hand was a bit taken aback by his passionate outburst because that was definitively something she was not expecting to hear out of his mouth, Kakashi maybe but not Naruto. However it changed nothing other then Namay gaining a little bit more respect for the young man.
Namay ended up slammed her fists down hitting the table out of pure frustration since she knew she couldn't physically hit Naruto without causing an explosive surge in their Chakras and harming everyone there even though she really really wanted too.
She felt a hand touching her back and heard Shikamaru Nara say: " Lady Namay you're back is blooding again... I think your wound came open... Man,That's such a troublesome drag."
She couldn't respond to him though as her eyes glazed over and she gasped loudly, Her entire body shifting off into the unknown as a vision of the future flashed before her of things to come and since it was Shikamaru who was touching her, what she seen did in deed involve the young man and none of it pleasant.
The glance into the future only ended when Namay felt her hand being yank by Choji Akimichi and some of his words rang into her ears: "...Burning... Lady Namay... You're Hand..."
She turned towards Choji watching him for a moment not comprehending what he meant until she heard him more clearly: " Doesn't that hurt? I mean you did have your hand right in the the BBQ pit in the middle of our table... At first I thought they were trying out some kind of new meat until I realized it was your flesh burning Miss. Sarutobi... Are you alright?"
Namay didn't answer Choji nor did she even notice that her brother Asuma had left the table until he was forcing her burned hand into the bucket of ice he want and got.
" Hand...Yeah, I guess it hurts... Who cares... They're not getting him too."
Kakashi raised an eyebrow as she said that before he spoke himself saying: " Namay, I know that look all to well... What did you just see? Whatever it was had to have been devastating because you are not making any sense and you only do that when something horrible shows in your visions... Since it was Shikamaru who was touching you when your eyes glazed over to the silvery teal color they become when you slip into one of your trances, I think it is safe to assume it has something to do with his future."
She tried to focus on Kakashi Hatake but Namay couldn't shake the disturbing vision she just had and couldn't bring herself to reveal the details to anyone else even though she knew she should instead she want on the defensive.
" ALL OF YOU, JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!" screamed out Namay Sarutobi.
Next her entire body sarted simmering in the purplish blue glow that her psychics abilities produced before anyone knew what was happening Namay released a massive amount of energy blowing everyone backwards by an invisible force shattering some of the Restaurant's windows but allowing her to make an escape via Teleporting because Namay just had to get out of there to clear her mind and try to figure out a plan in order to deal with the disaster she foreseen in her premonition before it was to late to save someone else she loved.
