Chapter four

Keiko lay awake after her cousins were asleep. She crawled out of her sleeping bag and tiptoed to the door.

"Kiiro, its okay… you don't have to worry about what happened today" she heard her father whisper.

"No now he probably will never speak to me again… we did start being friends again but now…" she heard her mother's soft crying.

Keiko tiptoed to the back door making sure her mommy didn't hear her. Her mother had amazing hearing. She slowly slid open the door and closed it the same way.

"Fluke-kaa-san?" she whispered looking around. She pressed her fingers together to make a hand sign and muttered a few words. When she opened her eyes she could see like a dog at night.

"Keiko, child, you should be in bed" a voice whispered inside the child's head.

"I cannot sleep Kaa-san… I wanna know about that guy, Inuzuka…"

"Ah he was a fine mate for your mother but something went wrong, dear." She replied.

"Oh, Kaa-san, can we go for a ride?" she whispered. Fluke's reply was only putting the young girl on her back and hopping the fence.

"Kaa-san!!!! Come on!! Noooooooooooooooooo" 11-year-old Keiko cried as her mom attempted at brushing her hair.

Keiko snatched the brush and ran down the stairs.

"too-san" she muttered handing him the brush.

"How troublesome" he murmured. She glared at him lightly and playfully. She smiled and hopped on his lap.

"Thanks Daddy!" she cheered and ran into the kitchen. He walked in and had started cooking.

"Daddy, thought momma bandeded you from using anything that had any possibility of catching fire" she questioned appearing next to her father making pancakes.

"Ah yes, but if your mother can't cook…. Than who cooks breakfast. Hmm?" he laughed. She just looked at him puzzled and sat down at the table. Only to be knocked over by the twins, who were 9 now.

"Hey" she laughed standing back up, "be careful sillies!" she giggled.

"Sorry," Ryuu started "sissy" Kyuu finished.

"Ryuu! Kyuu! Sit down now!" their mom yelled. They pouted and sat on either side of their big sister.

"Wrong again momma its Kyuu here and Ryuu there" Keiko giggled her brothers laughed.

"Of course… I'm just am not a morning person" Kiiro defended herself.

"Of course" the three sang.

"Break fast is served" her father said setting down plates.

Keiko and her brothers ate fast. Keiko jumped up and threw her jacket on over her outfit, which at the moment consisted of an orange spaghetti strapped tank top and dark gray shorts and the ankle length jacket.

Keiko said good bye to her parents and slipped on her black ninja shoes and ran out.

She stopped at the Nara gate and Himaru her puppy jumped onto her head.

She slid around the corner of the academy building and ran into her class room.

"s-sorry I'm l-late" she muttered to her sensei catching her breath. He just gave her a nod and she jogged up the stairs to her seat, in-between her best friends, Haroki Uzumaki and Himaru. She sighed as she slumped down into her seat.

Haroki giggled. "Third time this week you've been late Nara" a voice snickered from behind.

"Shut your yapper Inuzuka" she snapped.

Mana Inuzuka laughed and sat back in her seat.

"Class we have a new student today, his name is Koji Hitakuru" Keiko's eyes shot in the direction of her sensei.

"Koji….Hitakuru-san" she whispered. Haroki looked at her.

"Go take a seat where ever it's open." Her sensei said pointing. Keiko quickly pulled Himaru out of the way so Koji could sit if he chose there.

"This seat open?" he asked looking at Keiko. She just nodded. He sat down and she started doing her homework that she forgot to do at home.

'Is it really Koji Hitakuru, the boy from all those years ago' she asked her self.
