Their Thoughts
Wary Eyes
I can not have this.
Kakashi and I can only be friends. Nothing more.
Well, maybe lying in the same bed doesn't count. Neither does the fleeting kisses we had before. If he's up to it, I wouldn't mind a date.
But I really don't think I can give him what every other man wants: a physical connection to create descendents to pass on the bloodline.
My mother would weep endlessly if she knew about me not giving her grandchildren. Father would lament about our blood "coming to an end without any boys."(Please, girls should have respect too, dad!)
If Kakashi knew, he would stay with me, but only for the sake of our families' friendship.
But where will he put all of that sexual frustration?
Cheating on me would usually give me anger, but… I'm just sad.
I hope Kakashi finds a real girlfriend soon. Very soon.
I want to remain friends with my pervy onii-chan.

"Is that an animal in your hair?"
"Shut up. Something must have happened in the shower."
Meika tried not to rip her hair out. For unknown reasons, she had a bed head that tangled and swirled all over. Her poor comb was having problems with it.
"Hey, hey! What the hell are you doing?"
"I've learned that women are connected with their hair. If the hair is alive, the woman is too. If the hair is drying or tangled about, the woman turns into a demon above and beyond. If she becomes bald, well, the woman is pretty much dead."
"…What was the purpose of that speech?"
"If your hair doesn't get combed out, I'll be stuck with a demon for a whole week. Now stop moving around. I can rip your scalp off."
She muttered endlessly, but slouched and allowed Kakashi to work out the tangles.
"So… you've been sleeping with a lot of females lately?"
Kakashi loosened a knot. "What the hell gave you that thought?"
"You have all of those perverted books. You must've been curious to try out some of the moves in there. And besides, your knowledge of us- the opposite sex- is really scary."
"Surprisingly, you are correct."
He is a regular at the brothels!
"How many are there so far?"
"Way too many to count, but they all had good bodies that could endure what I did. Believe me when I say that most of the things done was really hot, mind-blowing and sexy. You want to know what I've done?"
"I don't care about some fuc-"
SNAP!
"Er, your comb's prongs just broke off into your hair."
o0o0o0o0o0
"Stupid know-it-all bastard, breaking my comb… what else is next?"
Meika walked out of the library. Sakura, who was researching about herbs and such, had informed her that Kakashi and Naruto were out on patrol with the weirdo Taki. Kaito's location was unknown.
She had something else on her mind, though.
This place can't be part of the Mist.
She looked around warily. Sure, no one was going to attack her, but this place reminded her more of… Konoha.
Walking past a noisy bar, she noticed a man in the crowd looking at one of the games of shogi. With the triangles painted on his cheeks and the huge dog by his side, he had to be an Inuzuka.
The Inuzuka (supposedly) turned around and yelled something to his friend behind him.
The creepy guy behind him murmuring to the flies on the wall?
Was he part of the Aburame clan?
Surely these two strangers wouldn't be betting on those games of shogi…
Shaking her head, she looked away only to meet-
Sharingans!
The black haired man smirked at her before jumping over the rooftops. Meika took the invitation and jumped after him.
It can't be Itachi or Sasuke! Who's this third member of the Uchiha clan?
Whatever, I must put this man into custody for Konoha's sake!
o0o0o0o0o0
"Hey, I think I can win this game! Prepare to lose, Aburame!"
Aburame Mushi ignored his annoying partner. Inuzuka Seihantai (Sei) was always going to be a terrible gambler no matter what. Seihantai's dog, Kuro, closed his eyes against the noisy gamblers cheering for the winner.
Mushi noticed the scent of blood moving past the bar. He gulped, but his stomach remained pliant.
Ah, it's a woman from the team… Najika Meika, I assume?
Kaito had summoned a team from Konoha to help against the Shadows. From the mission report, it seemed Team 7 had answered and was now here.
What was the captain thinking? The five of us is barely enough to keep those four people safe from the rest of the town. In fact, isn't he thinking that we won't be able to control ourselves around them? I know we've been training for more than a decade, but still…
He was comforted that Kaito's sensei had agreed to help. In fact, as the blood's scent kept going further away, the sensei's chakra could be felt following Meika as her unknown bodyguard.
Hold on…
Mushi watched as the Uchiha led Meika away towards the training ground. The sensei, partially camoflauged with the surroundings, ran after her.
"What the hell is Maru doing?"
"Sei, what happened to your game? You lost again?"
"Fuck the game for a minute. What's Maru doing with that woman? I thought he was watching the little pink haired girl. Why's he shirking his duty?"
"He probably has a clone. He's not dumb; he's the oldest person on the team. He wants to say something."
"Right… um, Mushi, you won the bet."
"As always- give me a moment."
He whispered to the flies on the wall. They nodded and flew towards the library.
"Sorry, I just sent those flies in case Maru needed more eyes for the pink haired. I think her name's Sakura."

"Stop Uchiha!"
Meika placed herself in a defensive position. The two of them were in a training ground. It was a small clearing that probably trained numerous genin.
The man faced her, slouching and not looking like a threat. He wore the standard chunin- jounin outfit: a Konoha headband, a green vest, a shuriken holder, and pouches attached to the pants on the behind. His sharingans was the only thing that showed as a weapon.
His clear voice asked, "Why am I being arrested? I'm from Konoha too."
"It doesn't matter, Uchiha! Why are you here? There are only two living people of the Uchiha, yet it seems that you are the third."
He sighed. "You're partially correct. Yes, there are three people alive from the Uchiha clan, but I'm not one of them."
"That's a lie! You're as alive and breathing as me!"
"I never said I was alive, Meika-san."
Meika had to step back. The man smirked again.
"Yes, I know your name and the names of everyone on Team 7. I'm supposed to. Five people have to keep an eye on the four of you. In fact, I noticed you walking around town. Have you found anything?"
"There are… too many Konoha headbands…"
"Precisely, my dear jounin. Just keep thinking and you'll understand what's going on."
"But the dead and living can't possibly meet! It's just impossible…"
"Nothing's impossible. I expect more when we meet again. Now excuse me-"
The man took out a kunai.
"Please, don't hesitate to call me Uchiha Maru."
He stabbed himself. The shadow clone disappeared in smoke.
Wait a second, could Taki and Kaito be in league with this Maru? Oh boy…
o0o0o0o0o0
Meanwhile, Taki was leading Kakashi and Naruto back into town.
"Well, that was a waste. We found nothing!"
"Not so Naruto-kun; we at least know that we didn't receive any surprise attacks. Why don't we rest in a bar?"
"Cool with me. Kakashi- sensei?"
"Nothing else to do; I'll come."
The three males walked into the same gambling bar with the Inuzuka and Aburame. Taki noticed them immediately.
"Hey Mushi, Sei! I have some friends here!"
After the introductions, Sei and Kakashi got into an argument about training ninja dogs. Naruto watched the gamblers curse and swear, not surprised. (Jiraiya the pervert-sennin was his mentor, so what's there to gasp about?)
Meanwhile, Taki led Mushi outside.
"Was Maru really shirking his duty?"
"No, he just sent out a clone. I sent flies to check on him. Have you heard from the other five people of our group? What about the captain?"
"Today's his day off. It's tradition when it comes around; it can't be broken unless there's an emergency. As for the other five, when their mission is finished, Team 7 will be in Konoha then."
"How's the Shadow population?"
"No change. I have to say that I thought one of the more powerful ones would've snuck in by now. I wonder why not?"
"Probably waiting for a chance. At least no one has tried to bite Team 7."
"That doesn't mean we should relax yet. The Uchiha and Hyuuga clans are still against him being here, so maybe-"
A scream of triumph stopped the conversation. Naruto was standing on a table holding fists full of yen in the air.
Sei was angry; all of the money was gone! An amateur gambler had beaten him! Wait till he tastes a kick up his ass!
Kakashi, not caring, was reading his perverted book again.
Their panting grew louder as they reached the climax, screaming as…
Mushi turned away. Taki coughed.
"As I was saying, we should keep an eye on Kakashi-san or else!"
Disclaimer: Don't own Naruto!
I finally find my muse again, so sorry for the wait. It's going to take a while for another chapter, so forgive me! (That's because I'm also writing on Deviant Art. The stories and pen name are different, though.)
Remember- contact me through reviews or private messages.
If anyone's bored, I set up a small poll on my main page that will help out this story soon... in many chapters to come. But don't laugh; it'll still be helpful to click on on of those choices!
