Chapter Fifteen: Lesson Learned
This was not a part of our roleplay but I wrote it because I thought it would be important to show how loyal that Keiko is to Saki and hopefully this chapter demonstrated it. I also wanted to have her get mad and show how uncontrollable her powers are when she gets that way
Meanwhile Sasuke had been motorcycling into the sound village to pick up his niece. The only problem was that he had absolutely no idea where he was going or how he was going to find her. He decided that the best place to start was the orphanage. He got off of his bike and walked over to ring the doorbell. A woman with long blonde hair and bright blue eyes almost identical to Keiko's answered it.
"Hello?" she questioned him while slowly opening the door.
"I'm Sasuke Uchiha and I'm looking for my niece Sachi." He began while he held up the letter in front of her face. "She's Itachi's kid. I assume that you know her." He said.
"Oh,.. that girl." She began. "Nobody's seen her in days. In fact, I think it was last weekend that she left." She explained as Sasuke groaned and rolled his eyes.
"Do you have any idea where she might be? It's very important that I find her." He told her.
"Well she's a rather free spirit. She tends to go wherever the wind takes her." She replied.
"I'm talking about Sachi not Pocahontas." Sasuke pointed out.
"Look, if you want to go and try and find her my suggestion is go look in the woods. She's probably in her treehouse." The woman told her.
"She's got a treehouse?" Sasuke asked her questioningly while raising an eyebrow at her.
"Yeah, it shouldn't be that difficult to find." She told him while she shut the door and left him alone. Sasuke heaved a deep and heavy sigh and with another groan he rolled his eyes and then turned back around and walked back towards his motorcycle. "As soon as I find that girl and I know that she's alright,.." he began. "I'm going to kill her." He muttered underneath his breath.
…
"There you girls are." Iruka said as Keiko and Saki walked back into the classroom. "We were starting to get worried about you." He told them with a grin.
"You mean, we're not in trouble?" Saki inquired.
"No, of course not. Everybody gets nervous on their first day of school. Now what are your names again?" he asked them.
"I'm Keiko Haruno and this is Saki." Keiko replied.
"Saki Takahashi." Saki told him.
"Nice to meet you both. I'm sure that you will fit in just fine here. Now do you mind taking a seat?" he questioned them as Keiko shook her head.
"No, come on Saki, let's go find a seat together." She told him before they both turned around and walked straight towards their desks. Keiko found a seat next to the window and looked out of it and sighed while her mind started drifting back towards Sasuke.
"Umm,.. Keiko, are you alright?" Saki asked her.
"Yeah, I'm just a little bit sad because I miss Sasuke." She admitted while her eyes returned to a darker shade of blue.
"And I miss my daddy." Saki said while she felt teardrops suddenly rolling down her cheeks once again.
"Baby." A boy muttered from behind them when all of a sudden Keiko's eyes started slowly turning red.
"Shut up." She began in an angry whisper.
"Make me." He replied with a sneer and an evil chuckle making Keiko suddenly leap to her feet and quickly turned around to face him. Her eyes were dark red now and all of a sudden all of the rocks from outside levitated into the air and flew into the window towards him. All of the other kids including Saki gasped and hid underneath their desks.
"Keiko Haruno!" Iruka scolded as it was Keiko's turn to gasp from shock and she quickly dropped the rocks down all beside her as her eyes changed back to blue.
"I'm sorry Sensei, am I in trouble?" she questioned while she turned over to look at him.
"Oh yeah, big time!" he snapped before he marched over to her and grabbed ahold of her arm. "You're going straight down to the principal's office." He told her.
"Wait,.." an older boy with short brown hair and dark brown eyes began as he got to his feet. "It's not her fault, she was only trying to stick up for her friend." He told him.
"It doesn't matter Konohamaru,.." Iruka began with a shake of his head. "Whatever the case may be, we never solve problems with violence." He pointed out.
"Uh,.. isn't that the whole point into being a ninja?" he questioned him.
"No, it isn't. We never use violence against our comrades." Iruka replied while he led Keiko out of the room as Konohamaru simply just rolled his eyes.
"With comrades like those who needs enemies?" he wondered aloud to himself as Saki bit her lip and started to tremble in fear.
…
"Alright now Keiko, you're going to sit here and think about what you did." Iruka instructed her after he had led her into the office. "I'm going to go call your mother to pick you up." He told her before he turned back around and walked out into the hallway as Keiko sat down and started to cry again before she took out her cellphone again and texted Sasuke to tell him what had just happened.
Unfortunately, Sasuke couldn't respond to her because he was still driving his motorcycle. About ten to fifteen minutes later Keiko's mother showed up. "You and I are going to have a long talk young lady when we get home." She told her before she took her by the arm and led her back out into the hall.
