Hello people of fanfiction! :) just as a side note I have had absolutely no time lately...but I'm sick so hoorah! (for u at least) :) and anyway yea I'm starting to want to redo this story because of what I'm learning in my english class; I realize now how awful my writing really was in 8th grade :/ However, seeing as I might not have the hours nor the brain capacity to do it over the chapters will hopefully be better quality from here on out. With that said...on with the show! :D {BTW those little space marks mean really long dashes like to add in a thought but the correcter is being stupid O.o}


"Aero-dynamic marking!" Kiba _ _ but in my mind he's just the idiot I'm forced to interact with _ _shouts as he and Akamaru spring into action (literally) and lunge from tree to tree like crazy, spazzed {I googled it, it is a word! :) } out squirrels. With Kiba on his back Akamaru spins in circles while he appears to be um...peeing in mid-air on every single branch in his sight.

'Eugh can you say disgusting? I mean seriously Kiba? Was that supposed to impress me? So not attractive.' I shake my head as these thoughts race around inside of it. "Well I'm so glad that Ooparu is a girl." I say sardonically as Kiba and Akamaru descend from the trees.

"Hey, don't knock it till you try it;" Kiba proclaims,"Akamaru is skilled at hitting targets that are still, moving,or even in mid-air. You know once, in a battle against some sound ninja, Akamaru even branded one of the them so that he could tell the two apart and to blind him in the process." *(1)

"I don't see the point to that fascinating anecdote." Sarcastically I roll my eyes as I pivot and begin to walk away from him. Of course, he runs around in front of me to hinder my departure.

"My point is that he is a good shot in fights, but he also marks to show ownership." he grins.

"That was even more useless information than-" I'm cut off by my utter horror. Akamaru has leaped into the expanse between earth and treetops and has expertly sprayed my leg. Thank God it was just my leg; I swear if it had been anything more I would have launched myself at his master with a full intent to kill_ _ or at least seriously disfigure. "Eugh! What the..." I can't think of a word to describe my fury at Kiba right now. Yes, I'm angry at KIBA. Sure Akamaru had a part to play but obviously Kiba had been the prompter in this whole matter.

Kiba, on the other hand, seems to be utterly ecstatic at this turn of events. As he approaches me I have much more than half a mind to deck him, but his actions cause me to pause stunned. "Oh and by the way," he whispers into my ear, "whatever he marks...is also mine." At this he lightly blows on my ear knowing that will get some kind of reaction: I can practically sense his smug look as he does so.

I blush for a mere second before I decide_ 'No I'm still mad. Yea, I'm REALLY mad. Let's just pull out that ferocity again...' _ wrench my arm back and make contact with as much unnecessary force as I can muster. "You honestly think I'd be captivated by that?! Your mutt just freakin' peed on me!"

As Kiba pulls himself out of the accumulated heap of tree trunks he had smashed through he says cockily, "Of course. You understand canines right? I mean you have Ooparu; Hasn't a male ever tried to mark her as his territory?*(2) That's what we have always done." Kiba grins, one fang hanging out the side of his mouth.

If possible my face turns an even darker flaming scarlet. " Inuzuka, you just love to piss me off! I'm way beyond irritated; irritated was five minutes ago before your dog decided to label me; outraged was after the fact and when I sent you flying; when you said that...that is the point where I boil over and explode!" I roar as I whirl around and begin to stomp my way to the outskirts of the clearing.

"Wait! Tsuki! We need you to start training!" Kurenai-Sensei hollers from the opposite end of the glade where she is practicing with Hinata and Shino. I wasn't going to turn around; I mean she had paired me with the Inu-baka and party in the first place. Only on one exception would I be coming back.

Without turning around I throw over my shoulder, "When the mutt decides to grant me with the apology I deserve I'll consider coming back!" and continue to saunter off into the underbrush.


*1- I don't quite remember that episode but I think that was the reason? O.o

*2- From what I researched that could happen because they mark to show mating availability and ownership mainly.


Yeah I know, it was short; on the bright side I think I can take things from here and further develop the plot. Thanks to my wonderful readers. You guys are amazing. :) But...I wish you would review and let me know what you think more often :( So anyway I would also like to say a ginormous Arigato! to Fallen Angel Dawn and MoonAbyss for their support, ideas, help, and future plot bunnies? :D Well yeah Read+REVIEW people! Constructive criticism, what you liked, future ideas...anything helps! Trust me I'm all ears and I really do take what you guys say to heart. So, um, Sayonara! :)
