Chapter 5
No Way!!
I wondered towards the back of the school.
Big mistake!
"Rachel" Naruto called walking swiftly. I wanted to turn around but stopped me before I could. "Why have you been avoiding me, what did I do?"
"Look Naruto. I just can't hang out with you, not even to talk to you, which is what I'm doing now, I can't do it." I said trying to struggle from his grip.
"Come on Chelly, let's just forget what happened Monday night and just be cool" he said still holding on my arm.
Why is everyone holding unto my arm, this so annoying and let me put emphasis on the so part!
"No Naruto, we're not cool!" I exclaimed, "I don't want to hang out with because you have demon fox in you!" Naruto quickly clapped his hands over my mouth.
"How the heck did you know that?" he asked in a hushed voice.
"Mhhmmmmhhh" I said still with his hand over my mouth.
"That's one of Konoha's top secret only the top agents knows that" he whispered harshly. I finally got loose and was breathing heavily. "If you did know Rachel, you don't seem to be that kind of girl." He said I looked at him
I felt disappointed in myself. "Later" he said walking off.
Naruto's pov
"Crap!!" I shouted and kicked the trash can at the Gate walking out. I ahd to go training with Uchiha and Pink ass. Why is she like that? Bitch. I was mentally beating myself up.
"Dude wait up, I've been trying to call you since you've been kicking that Can." Sasuke called walking up to me
"What do you want?" I asked walking on the side walk coming out of the school building.
"No training"
"That's nice."
"For you, Yeah Jiryah asked for you when he was pulling out of the school's parking lot."
"That's nice"
"Naruto!' shouted Jiryah. He pulled up and indicated that I should come in. I did so. "How did she find out?"
"What are you talking about and it thought you had agreed on giving me some space."
"How did Rachel know?"
"I don't know and I don't care."
"I think she didn't mean it though."
"What the fu-. You were following me. This is crazy!"
"Just give her sometime."
Seriously dude, you need to stop it. Leave me alone and try on stalking Grans, her life is well mixed up" He only signed.
Malachi's pov
"Look, I'll make it up to you" said Kono at the arcade. I was well known there for breaking the high score and not as the new kid but as Malachi. My friends which I shall say, included the seniors at the Academy and high school kids; and I were popping sodas when Kono insisted that we 'talked'.
"What now?" I asked irritably.
"You hook me up with (the girl with the orange hair) and we'll be cool and I'll even bow down to you like those ass holes here at the arcade" he replied
"Ass holes, you're the only ass hole here Duffus" I said
"Okay, calm down dude, sorry." I laughed.
"You're so pathetic."
"Well are you going to?"
Kono was yapping when some one caught my eye, she walked in with her brother. I smiled forgetting about Kono.
"So Yakuma is the subject now. Is she?" Kono said.
"So every one knows" I said hoping he would just forget it.
"Yeah, so do"
"Just leave me alone"
"Come on dude"
"He said leave him alone, now run" Kono walked off.
"Thanks a lot." I said.
"Cool. So your sis going tomorrow?" the boy said popping a soda.
"What's happening tomorrow?" I asked walking back to my seat.
"The Social"
"I guess, I don't know. You want to go with her?" I asked, I just jhope he says no.
"Exactly"
Shit.
"Cool, I'll ask her, better yet you ask her." I said writing her number and a piece of paper.
"Sweet!" he said taking it from me and he immediately dialled it.
Rachel's pov
"Hello?" I said as my phone rang.
"Hey Rachel, its Jet. I don't know if you remember me" said Jet
"Oh, hi Jet. Of course I remember you." I said. I was in the upstairs balcony reading this month's Twist Magazine.
"Awesome, I was juust wondering if you were planning on going tomorrow and if so if you want to go with me" he said.
"Yeah, sure" I said smiling and playing with my hair.
"Sweet, well I don't have a car or anything of that such so it would be cool if we meet at the Centre."
"Oh, sure" I said, I really didn't care.
Malachi's pov
"YAHHOOO!!" exclaimed Jet when he slid down my phone
"No comment" I said putting down my soda.
"Dude, thanks"
"Yeah -"
"Malachi, is that you?" I turned around to see the sexiest girl alive. She had dark raven coloured hair and black eyes. She had one of the finest shape in Konoha.
"Yeah, Yakuma" I said.
"Cool, I was wondering if you want to come over my place?" she asked.
This was just my 6 th day at Konoha and I'm just loving it.
"Ahh, yeah, sure" I said getting up.
"Come on before Itachi is ready, which I think isn't any time now." She said glimpsing behind her.
Later we were in her crib which was really pink but nevertheless I mage myself comfortable on her bed. She came up beside me, really close to me.
"So Malachi, tell me about Land Milk and Honey," she said.
Okay, not exactly what I was thinking about.
"Sorry, scrap that" she said.
"Are you okay Yakuma?" I asked.
"Apart from being all nervous right now, yeah I'm okay." She said putting her hands between her lap. I let out a sign and put my arm around her shoulder hesitantly which she seemed to be more relaxed and then we started talking for the next 20-ish minutes.
"I'm hungry, you want something to eat?" she asked getting up.
"Yeah, definitely." I replied as I got up after her. I followed her downstairs to the kitchen.
"How does ice cream sound?" she asked opening the fridge door.
I LOVE ice cream with a passion. "Yeah, that sounds cool" I said. She took out a bucket of Haais Dais Cookie n' cream, two spoons and two cups. We joked for awhile when…Sasuke came in.
Rachel's pov
"So remind me why we are doing this again?" I asked Daphne who was on my bed with legs folded and her laptop in front of her. "Because I had already told Jet that I would go with him, so Naruto is out of the picture." I walked from my desk to my bed and took the same position as she was directly beside her and glanced at her then to her laptop and back again to her. She had her orange her up in a bun with strands of hair loose.
"Why aren't you answering any of my questions." I asked but she didn't reply then a thought popped into my head which I knew would get her attention. "So Daph, have you asked Sasuke yet?" Her head popped up.
Bingo!
"Oh please Rachie, the male is supposed to ask the female and not the other way around." She finally answered. "Even if just want to be my escort."
"Or you are just afraid that he might say no" I said.
"Rachie, I am Daphne Amoiru of Konoha. And plus you don't see the lady proposing to the man!" She exclaimed. I chuckled.
"Alright already" I said. "And what's the different between a date and an escort. I know there's a difference between a date and a date."
"An escort is one who walks you through the door and then leaves you, he's ether just using and wants to make an 'entry' or just wants to make an entry" she said when Malachi came bursting through the room hurriedly.
"Guess what?" he shouted.
"What?" I asked.
"Yakuma is my girlfriend!" je exclaimed. I didn't know who the hell was Yakuma and I didnt care whether he had a girlfriend or not.
"Shut up, the slut of the Academy!?" exclaimed Daphne.
"No, Yakuma …"
"Uchiha?" asked Daphne.
"Uchiha?" repeated.
"Yeah Uchiha" replied Malachi.
"There are many Uchihas in Konoha, as in not related. Right Daphne?" I asked.
Okay, because if this girl is some how related to Sasuke, Malachi you are so not going out with her.
"Nope" said Daphne coolly.
"You are so not her boyfriend. I mean- Is Sasuke even aware of this?" I asked.
"Ahh, yeah"
"And he's cool with that?" asked Daphne.
"Ahh, not really" Malachi replied.
"Okay then, what happened?" I asked.
"He's not okay with it, but Yakuma and I don't care." He replied.
"Do you know why he doesn't want you and his sister to be together?" I asked. He shook his head. "Because Sasuke and I don't get along well, well actually we just don't get along." I explained. Malachi was deep in thought then he replied.
"So, just because you two have your crisis doesn't stop us." And he walked out of the room slamming the door behind him.
"Anyway, Naruto just signed in" announced Daphne typing. I focused on the screen.

"He just didn't do that?" asked Daphne. I signed and hopped off the bed. I glanced at my watch.
"Look, my parents might soon come. It's after six so do want to stay or leave?" I asked.
"I'll just call my mom." She took out her phone dialled her mother and came off moments later. I dropped myself on the bed when the phone rang. Daphne answered.
"Hello-….yeah…sure whatever" she said and handed the phone to me.
"Yes?" I answered
"Rachel?"
"Sasuke?"
"What is your brother's ID at my house?"
"By any chance I sound like him?"
"Listen up Brooks; I don't want your brother to have any thing with Yakuma"
"Geez Sasuke I'm so sorry that they are classmates and unfortunately I obviously cant do any thing about that nor about his ID" and with that I hung up.
"That was nice" Daphne commented.
"Ms. Brooks" called Ana at my door, "Some one is outside to see you"
"Me?" I asked.
"Didn't I just say that" she said.
'Kay if that's how you're gonna play, let's play.
I looked directly at Ana as she did the same. I got up and pushed pass her and headed downstairs to the front door and opened it.
"Sasuke. What are you doing here?" I asked in amusement. He held up Malachi's ID. I stepped closer to him quickly grabbed but he shifted before I could grasp it.
"Listen up Brooks, I don't appreciate when people hang up on me- especially girls-like you" he said. I leaned on my right hip when he smirked and looked me directly in my eye.
How does he do it, it's so creepy.
"Why, you're so used to girls falling at your feet?" I asked trying to do what Sasuke was doing. There was a silence. "Sasuke"
"Hmm" he answered.
"Can you stop looking at me like that?" I asked.
"Yo. Get a room for crying out loud" exclaimed Malachi.
"What?" I asked. He pointed down at my waist where Sasuke's hands were positioned and he quickly removed them. Malachi shook his head and mumbled Clueless people. I grabbed Malachi's ID and turned around closing the door behind me.
"What happened, and was that Sasuke I just saw outside?" asked Daphne.
"Yup and they were making out." Said Malachi.
"No," I said giving Malachi his ID but that didn't convince her. She just walked outside without saying bye.
I pushed Malachi and walked up to my room.
I spent the whole of Friday by myself. At lunch I sat I the bathroom so I wouldn't have any contact with Naruto and finally the last bell of the day rang.
Bing Bang!!
"Hallelujah!" I shouted with my arms raised in the air but I took them down when I realised that everyone was looking in my direction.
I started on walking out when Ms. Yuuhi called me behind.
"Enjoying your time here Ms. Brooks?" she asked. I nodded. "Not having lunch in the bathrooms?" I shook my head and looked at my school shirt then at my washed out jeans pants.
"Rachel, how did you know?" she asked.
"Know what?" I asked then I hit me. How did I know about Naruto.
"You know."
"I know a lot of things." I confessed looking away.
"Rachel, look at me. How did you know about Naruto?"
"I…I…don't…reeemeber." I lied playing with my belt buckle which was a purple 'R'.
"Rachel do you know that you have the knowledge that no one but the high ranked ninjas have which means that you need to keep that to yourself."
"Yeah. I will keep it. You can Trust me." I said
"I can?" she asked.
"Why yes you can" I said.
"Then tell me where you got that piece of information" she ordered.
I fell silent.
"Not because he has that doesn't mean that you cant be friends with him. He's never hurt anyone before, well only his enemies in battle when it was loose."
"I know that. It's not me – It's my Dad" I said leaning on the desk, she signed and placed her hands on both of my shoulders.
"You see, long time ago a certain Clan were masters of gen jutsu which killed Naruto's real parents." She said sitting down in her seat.
"So Jiryah isn't Naruto's real father?" I asked. She shook her head.
I was taken back. "So how did they die?"
"They were cursed; Naruto's fore parents by the Clan of course by trapping his fore father that's about 2 generations before you; in gene jutsu that the only way he can come out is by death and this will be descended down to his generation."
"But then…but is Naruto still alive?" I asked.
"Some thing happened that it skipped Naruto's Dad so when Naruto's mother was pregnant, he would definitely be cursed but then research said that if the victim had a biju inside, the curse will be broken from him downward."
"So that time Konoha was being attacked by the Great 9 tails?"
"Yeah. But Naruto's Dad was the Hokage, so he defeated the fox not only for Konoha but for his son. H e died in victory and his mom died in child birth."
"Wait, so this Clan is my Clan?" I asked knowing the answer. "But why?"
"2 generations back, the your great great grandfather and his great grandfather which was the hokage also, I guess it's a family thing but any way, both of them were best friends, I mean they were so tight and close. One day the Hokage passed a rule but apparently Brook wasn't please with it and no matter how much he plead, the Hokage said no so Brooks got fed up and cursed him and the whole Clan took off in many different directions. In some books, it is said that they were illuminated but that's wasn't true, they just went separate ways not keeping contact."
"But how am I the sourcer?" I asked. Her eyes grew wider.
"How did you know about that?"
"I over heard the Hokage talking when I was passing her office." I confessed.
"You are the Sourcer because this Brook is your great great grandfather, not uncle."
"So I have cousins and maybe nephews and nieces?" I asked.
"Yea and the sourcer doesn't not only contain the most power but will unite the rest of your Clan"
"No way"
"So you go and keep your mouth shut, because not even Naruto knows and get ready for tonight."
I got up and left.
