The girls awoke a little past 10am, a clap of thunder being their alarm clock.
Kamryn awoke normally, a bit groggy, but managed to drag her tired body out of bed and head for the large bathtub that was in the other room.
Olivia, however, was a bit shocked when she awoke in an unfamiliar room, feeling as if the day before was just a dream. The young girl buried her head in the pillow and tried to not let herself cry, but failed.
When Kamryn came out of the bathroom she heard the quiet sobs of her friend, and she quietly made her way over to the other girl. This was much harder than both had let on, and it still hadn't seemed to completely set with Kamryn. She sat on the edge of the bed, startling Olivia, making her sobs cease.
Kamryn laid a soft hand on the others shoulder, "It'll be alright, Liv. You heard the man downstairs, he will help us get home." Olivia tried her best to dry her red and swollen eyes as she sat up and gave Kamryn a weak nod. "We'll be back home soon, don't you worry." Kamryn continued, wrapping her arms around the smaller girl.
"Go take a bath, Liv, I'll wait out here for you." Kamryn gave a weak smile, helping her friend stand on wobbling legs.
Olivia still hadn't spoken a word, her mouth dry and feeling too weak from sobbing to even speak, but she walked to the bathroom, a fresh pair of clothes in her arms.
Kamryn sat down on her own bed with a sigh, running her hand through her damp locks. She had to be the strong one, she told herself. She could do it for the both of them, and soon everything would be okay.
While Olivia was still in the bath, Konan dropped by the girls room, knocking softly. "It's just me," she spoke through the thick wooden door.
Kamryn rose from her spot on the bed, where she was reading, and opened the door for the friendly blue haired woman. "I just wanted to give you girls a little details about your situation…" She smiled at Kamryn as the door opened. As she stepped in the room, she looked around for Oliva.
"Ah," Kam scratched her head, "Liv is in the bath, she had kind of a rough morning…"
Konan nodded, understanding that the young girl might have trouble adjusting to a new life, much less and entirely different world.
"Let's sit," Konan started, and they moved to the end of Kamryn's bed. "So, if you haven't already realized, the people here, the ninja's, possess what you might call super powers." Konan fiddled with her hair as she tried to find the easiest way to explain their situation. "You two seem to be able to resist some of these powers."
Kamryn's mouth formed an 'O' at the last part, being able to resist a super power was just way too cool. She would totally have to remember this for a novel later.
Konan continued, "Like Itachi's eyes, they're able to put a normal person in a sort of illusionary state, where he can… hurt… them…" She hesitated on adding that last part, not wanting to scare Kamryn, but Kamryn just nodded along, still amazed by what she was hearing.
"There are many other of these sort of powers, and we'd like to see if you two can resist those too…" Konan finished, obviously surprising Kamryn. "But don't worry, we won't do anything that could kill you!" Konan waved her hands in front of her as if to dismiss Kamryn's worries.
Kamryn slowly nodded, "So, do we really have a say in this?"
Konan hesitated once again, "…No, not really. Nagato wishes to see how useful you'll be to us." She shook her head and sighed, "I'm sorry, we must do whatever is necessary to achieve our goal. But don't worry, we'll keep you safe, and try our best to get you home."
Kamryn nodded again, a small frown on her face as she took all the information in.
"I trust that you will explain this to Olivia the best way possible?" Konan questioned, obviously a little concerned for the poor girl.
"Yeah…" Kamryn gave Konan a small smile, who was standing from the bed.
"I have a much better surprise for you, whenever you two are ready to come out." Konan smiled, "Just come to the living room in a little while and I will explain."
Kamryn gave a small smile, happy that there might be something good to look forward to today.
Olivia emerged from the bathroom in a much better mood, slightly bubbly, and only a little red and puffy around the eyes, he girl made her way over to the reading Kamryn.
"Hey, Kam, I thought I heard Konan out here earlier," She plopped down beside Kamryn, "What'd she want?"
Kamryn was a little startled, as she hadn't heard the bathroom door open up.
"Ah.." She frowned, trying to think of how to put what Konan told her. She explained in much less detail, and left out the parts about Itachi being able to kill people with his eyes.
"Oh, that doesn't sound so bad." Olivia shrugged, "Cool, even!" She smiled at Kamryn.
"Oh, Konan wants to see us in the living room, she says she has a surprise." Kamryn smiled, happy Olivia was in such a good mood now.
So, the girls made their way out of their room and to the living room. There, they found Konan, Hidan, and Kisame, all sitting on the couches that were placed around the room.
Before they even entered the room, they could hear Hidan cursing about something or another.
"Girls!" Konan stood as they entered, shutting Hidan up. Kisame gave the girls a toothy grin, while Hidan let out a 'humph' and crossed his arms over his chest.
"You wanted to see us about something?" Kamryn started, and Konan gave her a sparkling grin.
"Something you'll probably be very happy about!" Konan seemed pretty bubbly about whatever it was, "I've talked to the guys and they agreed…"
Hidan interrupted, "I didn't agree to anything!" Konan's eye twitched at this and she gave the man a glare that shut him up.
"Anyways~!" She started again. "They agreed to take you two on a shopping trip!"
Kamryn's eyes lit up at the word shopping, and she failed to hold back a squeal.
Olivia was excited, but very much less so than her blonde counterpart.
"Really?!" Kamryn rushed over to Konan, grasping her hands in her own.
Konan gave a beaming smile, happy that she had come up with an idea that excited them so. "Really!"
Kisame laughed a little bit at Kamryns' overreaction, and Hidan grumbled under his breath.
Konan gave Hidan another glare before whispering something the others couldn't hear to Kamryn. "Don't worry about him, a little bird told me something, and I get the feeling he's secretly happy to do this." She grinned and her eyes flickered to Olivia for a moment.
Kamryn let out a small giggle and turned back to Olivia, "Aren't you excited?!" She made her way to her friend, excitedly grabbing her by the hand and moving her to Konan.
Olivia didn't even have time to respond before be dragged off.
"When can we leave?" Kamryn questioned Konan.
"Right now!" Konan smiled to her, "the bad weather seems to have cleared up, so now would be a perfect time!"
Kisame and Hidan both rose from their seats as if on command.
"Now, I need you guys to actually watch them." Konan started to lecture. "I don't want them getting lost or having anything bad happen to them!"
Kisame grinned, "Of course boss!" He let out a loud laugh after, earning a glare from Konan for h
is mocking.
Konan then provided proper shoes for the girls, they weren't perfect fits, but they would do for now.
Once outside, the girls noticed that it surprisingly wasn't very muddy, and the sun was out shining brightly. It couldn't have been more than an hour since it stopped raining, but it seemed like it hadn't rained all day.
They followed behind Kisame and Hidan, chit chatting among their selves, mostly about how excited Kamryn was. Hidan kept glancing back at the girls, almost nervously, to see if they were still there.
Hidan then began to loudly complain, "Why were we chose to baby sit?! I mean, there are plenty of other guys at the base today." He glanced over at Kisame who just shrugged.
"Well, if you don't want to, just leave it to me." Kisame seemed a bit annoyed with the white haired man's complaining.
Hidan looked a bit surprised, glancing back at the girls, who were curiously listening. "Ah…" He started, "Nah… I don't want Konan mad at me." He shoved his hands in his pockets and a little bit of red creeped unto his pale face.
Kisame shrugged at the man's words, "Well, ladies, we're about to enter the shopping district, you might want to stay close so you don't get separated from us."
The girls both nodded, and moved to stand beside their escorts, Kamryn by Kisame's side, and Olivia by Hidans.
The crowd of the shopping district was really amazing, people were all brushing against one another, pushing and shoving to get to shops and stalls. Clothing stores lined the streets, and street vendors lined the stores. It was truly a dream come true for someone like Kamryn.
As they stood at the edge of the crowd, Kisame asked where they would like to go first.
Both girls shrugged in response, "Just cute clothes stores," Kamryn replied. And both of the men sighed, how the hell were they supposed to know what cute clothes stores were?
"Well, lets just go and see then…." Hidan started off, making his way into the crowed with the others right behind.
It really didn't take long at all for the girls to get separated from Kisame and Hidan. As they looked around for the familiar cloak, or one another, the girls got shoved about.
Kamryn eventually made her way to the side of the large crowd, and found herself in front of a shop with gorgeous Yukata and Kimonos lining the display window.
A few seconds later, she felt a large hand grab her by the wrist from the crowd.
"There you are." Kisame grumbled out, moving to her side and letting go of her arm.
"Ah, im glad you found me." She gave Kisame a large grin, her mind still fixated on the beautiful clothes in the window.
Kisame's eyes followed hers to the shop window. "Ahh… I forgot, Konan did say something about getting you guys Yukata's for the summer festival."
Kamryn let out a squeal once more, "Really?!" She seemed to repeat herself from earlier.
Kisame let out a laugh, "Really. We can go in if you like, im sure Hidan is with Olivia."
Kamryn nodded excitedly, and practically skipped through the door that Kisame moved to hold open for her.
Meanwhile, Hidan scratched his head as he cursed, "Shit, shit, shit." He could barely see over the crowd, but what he could see was the hulking Kisame and the blonde one going into a store. But the other, Olivia, was nowhere to be found.
"Shit." He cursed again, pushing through the crowd with ease, before he heard a familiar yelp.
Quickly he made his way to the source of the noise, where a found Olivia shoved to the ground by some over excited person. A little old lady and man were the only ones who had stopped to help the girl up, but Hidan pushed them aside, earning a scolding as his hand quickly reached for Olivia's.
With ease he pulled the girl to her feet, "Are you okay?" A little panic could be heard in his voice.
"Yeah.. I'm fine…" She stepped away from him as soon as she was steady, dusting off her clothes and not making eye contact.
After a minute of awkward silence Hidan grabbed the woman's wrist and started pulling her in the direction he saw the others go.
"I saw Kisame and your friend over there, let's go before we lose them again"
Kisame seemed pretty damn fun. At least, Kamryn thought so. They had been talking and goofing off more than shopping, which was surprising to her. Though she did get a yukata. It was absolutely gorgeous and she couldn't wait to show Olivia.
Right now she was in a line with Kisame at a food stall. They had worked up an appetite while going store to store.
Finally at the front of the line, a sweet looking elderly woman asked what she could get for them.
She was trying to pick something but couldn't focus because the elderly woman was looking at her and Kisame all starry eyed and it was weirding her out.
Kisame picked something that she didn't catch the name of while she picked out some sort of sweet looking dough balls on a stick, which Kisame pointed out as dango.
While they were walking and nibbling on their munchies Kisame spoke up.
"Ya know," Kisame grumbled out between bites of food, "Hidan is weird around your friend."
"Olivia." Kamryn corrected, "And yeah, I noticed, it makes me suspicious of him." She made a face as she said the last bit, she didn't trust Hidan. Not like Kisame and Konan.
Chuckling at the face she made, he shook his head, "I think it is amusing, maybe he has a crush on her."
"Pfft. I highly doubt it. It seems to me like the only person he is attracted to is himself." She scoffed and laughed a bit at his random assumption.
Suddenly he stopped walking and looked down at her with a huge toothy grin. There was a glint in his eyes that looked like trouble.
Kamryn stepped back a bit as he grinned more. "What do you say we make a bet?"
Kamryn grinned, getting where he was going with this.
She held out her hand, sure the same mischievous glint was in her own eyes, "Let's have some fun with this".
Kisame took her hand and shook it briefly, "It's a bet".
