Friends Make You Stronger

Fiona woke up feeling happy as it was early morning but peeked into Snow's room.

The ebony haired princess was still asleep in deep sweet dreaming but hugging something she'd brought from her old home with her.

It was a hand stitched pillow her mother had made when she was little before she'd died but whenever Snow had it near her, she felt like her mother was with her.

Fiona smiled warmly watching her friend sleep.

"I'll help you no matter what to feel part of the family." she thought.

She then went downstairs and practised some karate but she was feeling good but curious about that girl they saw in the arcade.

She hoped she'd go to Konoha High as she heard Lillian call her for breakfast but hoped Snow was okay.

She'd looked so peaceful in sleep but hoped she'd be okay.

Snow was being very quiet at breakfast but Lillian understood.

It wasn't easy adjusting to an new home or family and it would take some time for Snow to feel that this castle was her home now as well as her along with Lillian and Fiona along with Harold were her family now.

Fiona understood as she and Snow left for school but was lost in thought.

"Maybe she'll be happy once we get to school." she thought as they arrived at Konoha High.

Snow smiled as soon as they walked into the building but Karin was angry.

"I thought she was at a boarding school!" she growled as her friends were a little jealous of Fiona and Snow.

They never felt any signs of real friendship from Karin but didn't have confidence to leave her.

But they saw a boy with spiky blonde hair in an orange tracksuit and had goggles on his head but stared at Fiona and Snow.

But Sakura stopped him from going after them.......

In Home Room Fiona, Snow along with Ariaelle were sitting together in the middle of the room.

But they were surprised seeing that girl with the long chestnut brown hair and hazel eyes enter the room but she seemed nervous seeing the other kids there but Fiona knew how she felt being the new kid along with Ariaelle.

"My name is Leah Roberts.

My family moved here a few days ago but we're getting used to it.

I hope you guys like me and want to be friends." the girl told her as the teacher assigned her a seat beside Snow but she was nervous but Fiona understood as she smiled warmly at her but Karin scowled knowing the new girl would befriend Fiona and Snow but was angry but Snow smiled at that.

But they saw that blonde spiky haired kid wearing goggles enter the room.

"Sorry I'm late!

I was with Iruka-sensei." Naruto said as Sakura groaned but Hinata smiled at him.

She liked him and didn't care he had a demon inside him.

But she hoped that he was okay as he was staring at Sakura.

Fiona saw sadness in Hinata's eyes and figured that she really liked Naruto but wasn't confident enough to tell him.

Fiona along with Snow, Ariaelle, Hinata and Sakura were sitting together at a table in the lunch room eating lunch and talking.

"Umm....... is it okay if I sit with you guys?" they heard Leah say holding a tray with her lunch on it.

"Sure you can." Fiona said to her as the girl sat beside Hinata who knew how it felt to be shy as she normally was like that.

"How come you moved?

Weren't you happy where you were?" Snow asked the girl.

"We were but we had to but my brother and I were sad to leave our friends in Calvert County but we'll be able to talk to them and maybe visit sometime.

But my brother David is at art college because he loves drawing and sketching." she answered as Fiona and the others understood.

Leah smiled as she was with her new friends.

She wondered why Karin was staring angrily at her but ignored her.

But she watched as they walked off to class together.........

Snow sighed relieved as the final bell rang as she and Fiona along with Hinata and Sakura were going to the mall but noticed Leah wasn't coming.

"Are you sure you don't want to come with us?" Fiona heard Hinata ask.

Sakura and the others were a little stunned by Hinata because she always stayed in her quiet and shy shell and never really spoke to anybody a lot besides her friends.

"No thanks Hina-chan.

Besides my Mom still needs help unpacking and I don't want to impose." the brown eyed girl said leaving them.

But something was bothering Hinata as they were at the mall but wouldn't tell her friends.

She knew Leah was a little like her and needed help coming out of her shell like she did a little at lunch.

But she dec ided not to think about it as they were drinking smoothies and root beer but Fiona sensed something was wrong but decided not to ask but she hoped she wasn't in trouble.

But they saw Kontana playing video games and Hinata had an idea.........
