LOVE LIFE DREAM
Hi Saki here! This is chapter two!
I don't own Naruto or the other characters...I wish I could but doesn't everyone?
I don't know how this story will end up really cause I have no plot to this story unlike KBHS where I have a plot though it is hidden very well. But let's go back to this story. Don't worry everyone will come out soon.
Re-meeting the teams
I woke up early as the sun was just rising. I stared at the balcony, "I guess it wasn't a dream" I sigh as I pull the covers off me. Sadly not being a morning person but unable to get back to sleep I made myself some coffee milk. (it is when you have cold or warm milk and add instant coffee to it and maybe sugar to it depending to the drinker's tastes).
I decided to look over the books I had on my shelf. Funny how I love books and reading though throughout the flat; the only books I had were on the bookshelves in my room, the rest of the place was book free.
I skimmed my fingers over each title. Medicinal herbs, Medicinal animals-parts, Basic flowers, Treatment during battle, Basic treatment, Advanced treatment, Biology of the land of fire, Increasing your chakra, Your guide to hand seals, ETC.. As I read I frowned, the books were out of order and mixed up. Putting down my cup of coffee milk I started with the first shelf top.
The first bookshelf was going to be for medicines and the second for chakra control. After an hour of re-arranging and dusting some books and scrolls off I decided to get another smaller bookshelf to go into the living room for light reader and entertainment reads.
I looked towards the clock to find it was already 6:45am. Making a bee-line towards the kitchen I made myself a bit of scrambled eggs on toast. While I was making my toast there was a thump on the front door.
I left the bread and opened the door though there was no-one there. I looked left and right and then I looked up and down, on the front mat was a news paper.
I picked up the newspaper and went back inside to attend to my toast.
Finishing I sat on my couch and read the pretty thick paper.
Konoha Times
In the paper there were a lot of interesting things. At the very end was like most papers obituaries and births though there was also a page on promoted Ninjas.
"Yo" a voice suddenly said. Sadly being so absorbed into the paper I didn't notice Kakashi enter my apartment.
"WTF! What the hell! Don't you know how to knock?" I screamed, coffee had spilt on me when I had jumped in surprise.
"well you didn't open the door after so many minutes of waiting so I just came in, Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke are all outside waiting, we have a D-rank mission today" Kakashi said opening his little book.
"oh fine, I was going to go shopping for groceries though" I sigh taking my dishes to the sink in the conjoined kitchen.
"don't worry, the mission is to help out a granny with her grocery shopping. " he replied flipping to a new page in him book. "and hurry"
"don't hold your breath cause I'm taking a shower" I stuck my tongue out at the silver haired man as I entered my bedroom and into the shower.
Finishing my shower I went to my wardrobe and opened it up finding some clothes I would never wear. I slipped on my bare necessities and opted for black loosish shorts that came to my knees and a high collar white t-shirt. I picked up my Leaf hitai-ate.
"Kakashi I need to shop for clothes! There is something wrong with my wardrobe!" I yelled from my room and entered the living room. Kakashi briefly looked up from his book to give me a strange stare.
"What? For some reason my clothes are all pink and are all parts of my worst nightmare" I said "Kakashi do you remember how I wore my Hitai-ate?" I looked at my Hitai-ate which had a pink band. I grimaced and mentally noted to change the color to black.
"you used to wear it around your neck" Kakashi told me and I nodded and fiddled with the knotting. "Dang it! This is harder than I thought!" I growled as the fabric kept slipping from my grasp.
Kakashi who seemed to be getting tired of my antics quickly tied the thing for me and left the apartment.
Picking up the wallet that was always in the safe in the corner of the living room I headed out hurrying after team 7.
"hey are we done yet?" I asked Kakashi who followed the three genin who had their hands full with bags.
"no idea though we've been here for about three hour, really how does it take three hours to shop of groceries?" Kakashi sighed.
"Bargaining?" I suggested as the butcher showed the granny a piece of meat.
"how about this? Only for 500ryo (500 yen/ roughly US$6.09)" the sales man said.
"i don't know" the granny hesitated.
"no, cut it down to 325 ryo" I bargained.
"450 ryo" he sales man replied to my bargain.
"345 ryo" I said again.
"425 ryo and it is not going down any further" the sales man stated sternly.
"350 ryo last offer before I a medical-nin/science of biology tells you what that dark spot on the meat it" I threatened.
"350 ryo it is" the man said handing me the meat as I paid for it. We walked off and I gave the granny her meat.
"what is that dark spot anyways?" Kakashi asked.
"dried blood in the vessels that burst open. Don't worry it's not harmful at all it just means that the meat wasn't cleaned all that thoroughly. The granny just has to clean the meat before eating but who doesn't clean their meat at least a bit? But then again she doesn't have to clean the meat, it's all organic anyways." I said raising a brow.
"wow Misaki you sure are scary, using your position like that to get a good bargain. The butcher lowered it 150 ryo" he said watching as the granny stopped at another store.
I hurried to help so we could finish quickly and I could have my shopping time.
Finally after another hour or so we finished. We helped pack things away for the granny and then we left.
"who wants to go shopping with me? I need weapons, bags, books, a bookshelf and some new clothes that aren't pink, and magenta, and neon yellow" I said while we were leaving.
"but I thought you liked those colors" Sakura said a bit disappointed.
"Sakura; honey, people change what they like and don't like all the time, sometimes it takes others a while to settle down on a good favorite, plus those colours are just begging an enemy ninja to kill me almost like our number one Knuckle headed ninja Naruto; like really? Orange?" I said patting her head.
"i have to train" Sasuke said leaving.
"Don't over do it!" I called after him.
He just waved a hand in acknowledgement as he walked down the path towards the outskirts of town.
"i have some reports to work on" Kakashi said trying to leave.
"yea right, you just want to go home and read your perverted book" I said grabbing him by the wrist.
"I'll come, actually both of us will come and Sasuke too, wait he'll come back in 5...4...3...2...1...now" Sakura said and just as she said so he returned.
"Sasuke you're back?" I asked.
"i remembered I had no eggs at home" he replied with a genuine tone of stoicness.
"sure anyways lets go to the weapons shop first, I'll need some sebon and kunai not to mention I can't find any shurikens" I said still holding Kakashi's wrist.
"the best store is run by Tenten's family so that way" Sasuke said taking the lead.
"why are you holding Kakashi-sensei's wrist Saki-nee" Sakura asked.
"so he won't run away" I said pulling him along.
"he could just use the transportation jutsu to leave" Naruto said.
"oh right, didn't think of that" I grinned sheepishly as I let go. Turning to Kakashi I confirmed "you won't leave right?"
"i won't, I doubt you know what your looking for anyways" Kakashi said; his gaze was still hovering over the three genin.
"I know, thats why I needed you to come" I said watching Sasuke and Naruto bicker.
"Naruto, Sasuke, you two are fighting like newly wed couples." I called to them and they stopped. Turning their backs to each other.
"you'd think they'd be the best of friends after what happened in the wave" Kakashi said starting to walk again.
"Right" I agreed walking in pace with his long strides.
"oi! Dofus! We're here already" Sasuke called to Naruto who passed the weapons shop.
"Shut-up teme" Naruto said coming back.
The door opened with a ringing sound. The inside of the store was large and spacious as weapons of all shapes and sizes filled the walls and racks.
"Nice" I whistled as I entered the store.
"Welcome! Oh Misaki-chan hi how are you?" the lady asked.
"just fine" I replied.
"just fine my ass, Misaki-chan here received amnesia from the waves mission and she forgot most of her shinobi techniques, though they're no loss to forget" Kakashi said looking at some sebon.
"what's that suppose to mean?" I asked venomously.
"he means you sucked at ninjutsu and taijutsu and genjutsu and you sucked at making seals quickly" Sasuke bluntly said.
"well lets go to the hospital and get my stats rechecked" I stuck my tongue out at them.
"later, but first-" Kakashi started but was interrupted by another voice ringing through the shop.
"MISAKI!" I looked behind Kakashi and saw Tenten running up.
"Tenten! No running in the shop I told you that!" her mother reprimanded.
"Sorry ma-ma" she said slowing down to a walk.
"hey there Tenten" I greeted.
"Saki I missed you, you must have come back a few nights ago" tenten hugged me and I hugged her back. "what are you doing here?" she asked.
"getting some weapons" I answered though she gave me a puzzling look.
"i thought you hated blood" she said.
"i changed after the waves mission" I lied, I couldn't tell her I wasn't well...ME!
"oh..." Tenten frowned.
"what?" I asked her wondering what was wrong.
Tenten led me away from the group and whispered "you said you hated Kakashi and thought he was nothing but a lazy pervert."
"yes he is a pervert and is one of the laziest people I know but he's not that lazy and he's gained my trust and respect after the waves mission." I told her.
"must have done something huge to change your mind about him" Tenten said.
"i guess" I said and we started to head back towards the group when the rest of her team entered the shop.
"Tenten! You just ran in here! Are you ok?" a fairly loud voice projected. I looked over towards the door and frowned as I was met with two green spandex suits.
"i'm fine Lee, Misaki is back!" Tenten shouted.
"OK! We should invite her to have a youthful training session with us!" Gai said with his signature pose.
"I need to buy weapons" I said making my excuse.
"then we will wait!" Lee said sticking up his thumb.
"no, I'll train with umm...with...umm...Kakashi and his team" I said trying to get out of training with the two spandex aliens.
"where is Kakashi'd team?" Gai asked looking around.
"what do you mean? They're right-" I looked over and saw that they disappeared.
"she has to go to the hospital for a checkup" Kakashi covered smoothly.
"oh my forever rival! You have a date with a young one!" Gai said loudly.
I could hear sniggers from behind the racks but choose to ignore it for the moment.
"no I have amnesia and I need to get a check up and have to have a new stats check as I seemed to have forgotten many parts of my training." I added calmly.
"now Misaki measure your hand so we can get you your sebon" Kakashi said throwing me the measuring tape.
"18 cm" I replied after a few seconds.
"then you should use these" Tenten said handing me some sebon.
"Thanks" I fondled the lightweight weapon gently balancing them.
"Throw" Kakashi said pointing towards an open wall.
"Don't laugh" I begged as I threw the sebon. It bounced off the wall uselessly and clattered to the floor.
There was a haggard sigh as Kakashi and Tenten showed me how to throw the sebon properly. Actually it made sense.
Throwing again it buried deep into the wood with a sound thunk.
The sebon itself was about 20cm long, as long as an average chopstick.
"Nice, went in quite deep, although you should work on aim you have a very good arm" Tenten's mother said pulling the sebon out.
"thanks but what about the kunais and shurikens?" I asked looking around.
"use these" Kakashi said handing me some that weren't heavy but fairly weighty.
"ok thanks" I scanned the store and my eyes rested on a short katana. "can I try?" I asked pointing to it.
"go ahead! Tenten would you help her?" Tenten's mother asked.
"sure" Tenten was about to help me when I threw at her the other short Katana. "fight me" I said lifting the sheathed sword to my hip.
"but you don't kn-" she started but I cut her off "just try" I replied.
"ok!"
she unsheathed her katana as I waited, mine still sheathed. She ran at me bringing the short sword up as I quickly slid the katana out and blocked with the back of the blade. Turning the sword flat I slid it down the length of Tenten's sword, stepping in I barely skimmed her hand as I said "you lost your hand".
"When did you learn such an intense combo?" Tenten asked.
"I watched" I stated simply.
"This time I'll be a bit harder on you"
"Sure go right ahead"
She jumped back and started again. She came from the side as I blocked with the tip of the sword edge. I watched as she stepped back and struck again though this time the went strait for my throat.
I blocked with the flat of the blade and turned the sword so it would slide away from me as I turned inwards towards the falling girl and quickly I turned the sword so the blade was facing me. I stopped Tenten from falling on the blade just before it impaled her.
"So not expecting that" Tenten shuddered to think what would have happened.
"Thought so, Kakashi I'm getting this too" I said waving the short Katana in the air.
"Ok and you better get some explosive tags and smoke bombs too" he took out a pack of smoke bombs and tags from near the counter.
"So in total it is 20 kunais, 15 sebon, 25 shurikens, one short katana, a dozen smoke bombs and 100 sheets of explosive tags" Tenten's mother explained "it costs 31400 yen"
"Sure" I pulled out the amount and received change.
Tenten and her team pulled out and Naurto, Sakura and Sasuke came out of hiding.
"And where were you" I asked.
"Here and there" they answered. I sighed though I had all my weapons I needed a new pouch.
"Do you sell pouches?" I asked.
"Sorry honey, try down the street, they sell good leather material." she said pointing down a street as we walked out the store.
We followed the direction and ended up at a small stall.
"Lookin' for some leather?" a sales man asked.
"Yea well I was wondering if you had any kunai holsters and such." I asked looking at the things displayed on the table though none were of any use.
"Shinobi eh?" the man pointed towards the back of the store and towards a house.
We entered and were met with a kind man and lady. "Looking for something?" they asked.
"Holsters for kunai and other various things" I answered. They looked me over and measured my hips and legs as well as arms.
"We have these here, they strap on your thigh and held in place by two thin pieces of leather cord to go on your hip." the lady said. I accepted it and looked it over.
"Wow it reminds me of a garner hose" I wrinkled my nose.
"I know honey but the chances of it falling are less than that of regular ones" she said. Then she showed me a pouch. "I see you have a good pouch already so may I ask why you need another one."
"This is for medicines" I said pointing to the long pouch on my hip "that one will go here" I pointed to my left hip "and then I can carry my other things I need." I said.
"Smart idea, a medical-nin needs to have their own pouch too." the man said.
"I'm not a medical-nin well not a registered one at least" I said "i have a wide range of knowledge though" I accepted the two things. "How much are they?" I asked.
"Have them for free honey, keep yourself and your team safe!" the kind lady said.
"Thank you!" we left the store and started to head towards the clothing part but Naruto's stomach growled.
"Hungry?" I asked.
"Starved!" all three genin exclaimed.
