Saamna P.O.V.
I knew sensei was lying about providing us with food, and Neome knew as well. I did not need to tell her she has her own way for knowing these things. So the next day we woke up and ate breakfast. Made sure we had all of our weapons- not that we honestly need any.
Bells that was the first thing I heard when sensei came to our meeting spot. Oh now I see there are two bells attached to sensei's weapons pouch. I heard her speak, "Alright squirts y'all are going to have to get these bells from me before sundown. There are only two bells that means one of you squirts will go back to the academy for more training." Sensei's last sentence was synonymous with, 'you will be pitted against each other to test your teamwork.'
It wasn't long before we got the bells.
"Good job squirts there's hope for you yet." Sensei praised.
"YAY I'm finally an official genin!" Guess who that was (hint she likes purple).
"hn."
"Imouto you did a good job." Naomi complemented.
"Thanks Nee-chan."
"Nee-chan?"
"Yes Imouto?"
"You're fond of him, aren't you?"
"W-who?" Nee-chan stammered.
"Hyuuga-san."
"W-where did y-you ever g-get that idea f-from?!" Nee-chan was quite flustered now.
"You stare at him all the time. It's just like Maobo-Nii-san used to at Kiria-chan." I grew quiet as I spoke of my deceased brother and friend.
"..."
"I'm sorry Imouto."
"Neome Sawu, you weren't the cause, if anything you're the opposite. Because of my sadness you have added weight to your shoulders. I'm so terribly sorry." I started strong, the minuscule light in my soul burning determinedly, but I ended weakly- weaker then a child just finding their voice.
"So do you?"
"Do I what, Imouto?"
"Have feelings for Hyuuga-san."
"Saamna!"
"So you do?"
"N-N-NO! Of course not..." Neome Nee-chan looked like a tomato, it was amusing.
"..."
"You'll figure it out, sleep well, Nee-chan."
"You too, Imouto." It was nice of her to say, but we both knew I don't sleep. The nightmares saw to that.
