So it's been like what…a month? Yeah, I suppose it's been a month. Heck, I'm not even sure if it's a Friday or a Monday.
I just know the fact in this world,
There's no such thing as "weekends." Well there is but I mean I never got a day off since then.
But anyways Kakashi or a Kakashi clone has been well…Satan. Constantly training me to become stronger but hey, my body is looking quite fit now thanks to the workouts (or should I say tortures) and the squats are a pain in the ass but heck they give me quite a butt now.
Wait, why am I talking about butts? I don't know myself. I swear my head is off topic here and there.
Anyways, everyone in the village seems to be stoked. Heck, they are stoked as fuck running everywhere talking about the finals and some other stuff. Makes me wish I could join in the fun.
But we all know whom to blame for that.
I'm still cautious about Kabuto or Oro-freak. The Hokage even sent a couple of ANBU dudes or dudettes to guard while I sleep the night away. But fuck it, even they are no match for Kabuto. I mean, remember with Sasuke's situation?
Okay, enough about that situation. Overall it's been majorly busy. Mostly about the final matches.
I had a short lunch at Ichiraku and just finished my last noodle and generously paid Teuchi. He asked me if I have seen Naruto lately.
"No," I replied. "I haven't seen him lately for quite awhile now. But I'm sure he's busy training his butt off. Which I should be doing soon."
"Well then do your best!" his daughter, Ayame cheered.
"Thanks!"
I moved the curtain out of my way and in an instant someone decided to bump into me. Or vice versa.
"Hey watch it!" a voice exclaimed after I lost balance and have my butt meet the dirt. I looked up to see Temari with a frustrated look on her face.
"Excuse me!" I said as I got up no thanks to her. "But you're the one who bumped into me!"
She groaned, becoming even more frustrated.
"You know what I don't even have time to argue with someone like you," she told me. "I need to find Gaara."
Someone like me? What is that suppose to mean? Excuse me girl but I believe I had the heart of explaining to you about your daddy dearest.
"Wait, he's missing or something?" I asked, even though I have a hunch of where he is."
"Since this morning," she replied. "Have you seen him?"
"Sadly, no." I semi-lied. "But if I see him I'll let you know."
"Thanks."
I just realized it was the day before the finals and so I remembered that episode where Gaara sneaks into the hospital and attempt to kill Lee.
I'm just hoping that I'm not too late.
I ran as fast as I could and for some reason I was able to run faster than back in the real world. Well then, guess this training paid off a bit.
Except, I wasn't really paying attention and now I bumped into someone.
"Oops!" I quickly apologized and saw a guy with his hair tied back like...a pineapple.
"Pineapple head!" I smiled and helped him back up.
"Ugh, Troublesome" He complained. Wow, is this world full of rude people or what? "Aw man you made me drop my basket."
"Sorry!" I said as I helped him pick up the fruit that fell out. "I'm in a rush to get to the hospital."
"Are you visiting Naruto?"
"Naruto?"
"Yeah, he's been in the hospital for a couple of days now. That man can sure sleep. Come on, you can come with me since we are going to the same direction."
"Alright!" I agreed and the two of us made our way towards the hospital.
The hospital looked quite dead. And I don't mean that literally.
It's the fact that it's way too quiet right now that it's getting on my nerves. Day or night, hospitals are creepy as fuck.
We were greeted by one of the nurses who politely asked us to sign in the visitor's log. After that we made our way to Naruto's ward. I can't believe I completely forgot him. But in my defense I was quite busy getting tortu-I mean training with the copy ninja. But I'm pretty sure he was training Sasuke too.
The perks of being a ninja. You get to be at two places at once.
Wait, why the hell didn't I think about doing shadow clones? Oh yeah, this is Kakashi we're talking about.
But thank goodness I'm not actually participating otherwise I would get MAJOR last minute set of training.
And in this world, they surely judge the way you punch someone.
"Well here we are," Shikamaru interrupted my train of thought. "But I almost forgot aren't you visiting someone too?"
Aw man I completely forgot! I mentally yelled at myself.
"Uh yeah!" I replied. "I'm actually here to see Lee. Do you know where his room is?"
"I believe is on the next floor at the second room to your right." Shikamaru pointed out.
"Well then I'll be going now! Thanks a bunch!" I waved at him and dashed towards Lee's room. I know we're not even suppose to run at a hospital but heck this is an emergency for goodness's sake! I may have changed a bunch of stuff here but can't be too careful right?
Took me quite awhile to find Lee's room but at least I made it in time. I knocked before I slowly open the door, making sure I'm not disturbing Lee in case he's resting. When I entered I found him doing one hand push ups. I must say, he's really eager it's inspiring. This is something I would never do.
"Hey you know you're suppose to be resting right?" I said. "You don't wanna overdo it do you? Here, let me help you out."
"Please!" Lee yelled at me and I flinched a bit. I swear this is why I don't wanna become a nurse. But in his case I understand his motivation of not giving up. Lee did a final push up before he struggled to get up. I wanted to help him but he looked like he didn't want any so I simply just watched.
"I apologize," Lee panted. "I didn't mean to hurt you like that."
"Oh no you're good!" I smiled at him. "But I really hope you would take it easy. Do you need help with that?"
"It's all right I got it." Lee said in a quite raspy voice. "By the way, what brings you here?"
Well I wanted to say 'oh hey I'm just visiting in case you get murdered.'
"Oh well I thought I just drop by for a visit." I said, trying to get my words straight.
"You know you don't have to lie. I can tell something is up." Lee observed.
Now I know I can use my powers but I can brush off on my acting skills. I started tearing up and put on a show.
"So here I am just wanting to visit a good friend since I'm very concerned and THIS is what I get? I'm devastated!"
I covered my face, crying when I heard a small chuckle. I moved my hand away and saw Lee with a small smile on his face.
"You are really quite funny." Lee complimented. "But I wonder how you know what's gonna happen? Everything you have said has came true. I am sorry if I never considered your warning."
"Well no offense, but I think you should be grateful for Gaara. Don't get the wrong idea but this injury could be a blessing. You won't know why right now but you will soon."
"But how did you know..about my injury if it never happened until my match with Gaara?"
Wait, didn't he asked me this before? Major Déjà vu here.
"I told you, it was just a lucky guess." I forced myself to say.
"That tone of your voice says otherwise." Lee demanded.
Can he be more annoying? Gosh.
"Hey you know what are you hungry? You must be." I said, changing the subject.
"I know we are not that close but I know when something is up. Just tell me who you really are."
I sighed.
"Can you keep a secret?"
Lee was a bit anxious at the moment but nodded his head.
"I'm actually a psychic."
You all think I'm actually gonna tell him I came from another universe? Heck to the no.
"What?"
"A psychic. You know someone who predicts the future. Kindda like Neji except of course I'm better. Now you need to rest bud. "
"Will I-"
'Just shut up and go to sleep' I mentally commanded him. It's about time I used my powers. It's been FOREVER!
"Nevermind, I have to rest now." Lee said.
"Okay"
It's been half an hour and no sign of Gaara. Then again since I lack focus still so he could be lurking nearby and then he would just grab me with his sand and kill me in an instant. And here I am trying to make friends with the guy.
Everything was still quiet and I still haven't left Lee's room. Gosh how boring is it here without social media? I kindda miss the whole lying down all day in bed with just my laptop. But hey, im living it up here in Naruto's world.
Hearing a strange sound (My hearing got a little bit better) I grabbed..sadly the vase that was sitting at the small drawer. Yes, I could have grabbed a kunai but shit I panicked.
"Who the hell is there?" I demanded as I raise the vase over my head. Again, I panicked. I could hear the sand coming from somewhere but the question is…
Where? Fuck, I gotta calm down.
Shit, easier said than done.
"Hey Gaara you might as well come out. I got a big fat heavy vase and I am not afraid to use it!"
Okay, not the best threat.
More sand started to appear and they all gathered in one place in front of me. Suddenly the door opens revealing a VERY murderous looking 12 year old. He had the thirst for blood. I can see the lust to kill in his eyes.
"Oh bloody hell dude," I said. "Seriously you need to meditate or something."
"You…" he sends me a death glare. "What are you doing here?"
"Your big sis was looking for ya," I told him. "Lucky for you I really don't like to tattle so how about you put your sand away and be a good little boy this time?"
More death glares. I'm just happy this red head ain't related to Medusa.
"You better move or I will kill you too." He threatens.
"Seriously? You are SUCH a brat." I rolled my eyes. "You're just like a 5 year old who throws a tantrum whenever he doesn't get that new toy. Do you REALLY need to kill everything in sight? I AM TRYING TO BE A FRIEND TO YOU!"
"You have no idea what I've been through! I am nothing but a weapon for my village! Now, you better move out of my way or I will kill you too."
"But you didn't," I pointed out. "We have been standing here for a good couple of minutes and you didn't kill me."
More growls from the red-head.
"Wanna know how to make friends? First of all, never threaten to kill them. Second, at least TRY to keep your sand in control. Third, lets go make a sand castle."
Yeah I don't know why I said that third one. I just wanted him to make a sand castle.
"Why are you trying to make friends with me?" he asked.
"Why not?" I shrugged.
"If you are just pitying me then get the hell out of my way!" Gaara screams and started to gather his sand towards me. Slowly I can feel them wrapping my ankle but all of a sudden he stopped moving. I looked behind him to see two familiar faces.
"Hey what the hell do you think you're doing to Miharu?!" Naruto pointed out.
"Shadow Possession Jutsu..success!" Shikamaru smirked. I sighed in relief.
"About time you get here" I mumbled.
"Can't you simply say thank you?" Shikamaru said. "Women are troublesome"
"Yeah and one of them pretty much gave birth to someone as troublesome as you." I said.
"Miharu what are you doing here anyways?" Naruto approached in front of me acting like my bodyguard. Aww, this fella is like a little brother I never had.
"Out with it!" Naruto demanded towards Gaara. "What were you trying to pull?"
"I was just trying to protect Lee. I had a good hunch Gaara will be coming here. He wanted to kill him."
"You try to protect Lee but you can't even protect yourself?" Naruto said and I glared at him.
"Well I am a lover, not a fighter." I grinned. "Anyways watch out, Gaara is in a even worse mood than before."
"Why were you trying to kill bushy brows?!" Naruto interrogated. Right now I'm trying to keep my guard up because Shika's jutsu ain't gonna last long.
"Because..I just wanted to." Gaara admitted.
"What?" Shikamaru and Naruto had their eyes widened.
"You beat him already during the preliminaries," Shikamaru said. "Wasn't that enough for you?"
"No," Gaara answered him with no emotion in his face. "Like I said I simply just wanna kill him."
"Man you're crazy!" Naruto screamed. Man his voice is so loud. Why isn't anyone going into this room?
"Naruto!" I shushed him. "Don't forget this is the hospital!"
"Stay out of my way." Gaara threatened. "Or I will kill you too."
Shikamaru started to bluff about something about their skill or something. I just kept watching to make sure the sand doesn't creep up on Lee.
Or me.
"I'll say it again, get in my way or I'll kill you." Gaara threatened again for the billionth time.
"You know if you wanna kill us then what are you waiting for? See you can be nice too." I told him.
"Lets see you try it then!" Naruto demanded.
"Hold on!" Shikamaru stopped him before Naruto could do anything stupid. "You can't just tell him that! We could actually get killed. He's like a demon or something"
"Heh," Naruto smirked eagerly. "He can act like a demon but I have a REAL one inside me!"
"So does he," I told. "The Shukaku. Gaara is a host of a tailed beast like you Naruto."
"SAY WHAT?!" Naruto is practically making my ears bleed right now.
"Do you really need to shout everytime? Again, HOSPITAL." I told him.
Gaara seems to be interested in Naruto now. One mutual thing and BOOM.
And now..his life story. Gotta say this is even sadder to hear in real life. Especially the part where his own daddy try to kill him.
"Okay we get you got issues but this boy right here got some too," I pointed out to Naruto.
"What do you mean I got issues?!" he accused. I reminded myself to see the eye doctor.
"atleast he didn't kill anyone." I finished before giving him a look.
"Who needs friends? People with friends are nothing but weaklings." Gaara commented.
"Man what is up with this guy?" Shikamaru freaked out.
And now Gaara starts talking about his whole purpose. Of course I'm still keeping my guard up.
"You know one of these days there are people who will ACTUALLY try to reach out to you right? For example, yours truly." I told him. "Killing everyone just for your satisfaction? You are not a monster but you are making yourself like one."
Naruto suddenly backed off with fears in his eyes.
"Hey where you going?" Shikamaru asked.
"Naruto are you okay? Not like you to be scared." I put a hand in his shoulders and he flinched away in fear. All of a sudden the sand started to move again.
"Drat!" Shikamaru groaned. "How the hell was he able to do that with my jutsu in progress?"
The sand parted in 3 ways aiming for us. We all froze in fear not knowing what to do right now.
"Alright that's enough!"
We all turned around to see Gai at the front entrance of Lee's room.
"Save this fight for tomorrow!" he commanded us.
What fight? Gaara is the one who wants to kill us. I'm the innocent one thank you very much.
Gaara had his hands over his hand as if he got a headache or something. Then the sand started to retreat towards his gourd.
"Just you wait, I will kill you all." He says before he left us.
"Yeah well I would really love to see you try." I mumbled annoyingly. I mean come on this guy told us he was gonna kill us but did he ACTUALLY do it?
Okay, he almost did. But it's progress right? He could have done it then and there.
We all just remained standing in the room.
