Okay my last oneshot got some good complements, but it seemed that some reviewers wanted the Bunny/Wolf to end up at a couple. I didn't know if I made this clear, but the two were friends, just friends. Even if they did love each other, they were two different animals and that is against the laws of nature. I'll think about making one where all the animals become humans and try to live in the human world. But then I won't relate it to chapter 1 and 12.
But on with this story; this is based on our cast of shinobi in, middle school. Where our young blue haired girl is trying to show the boys what she can do.

At the Konohagakure Middle School it just another one of those days in band class and Kakashi was trying to work with the brass section that was having some trouble…again. This was his eighth grade class that was, of course, better than the others but it seemed that were not as grown up as he would have liked. Sure he had a few favorite students, but the ratio from them to the others was low. He taught the middle school and high school bands and he made sure that he got his middle school students ready for the higher up bands, since to get into the high school band, all newcomers had to audition. Kakashi loved his job and he did love music but he what put it off was that his students were very competitive with one another. If he gave the first chair to someone then he had to listen the others argue about it. Not to mention that at least one person in each section would take the role of leader and rag on others when they messed up. The only group that didn't do this was the percussion section, since there was only a few of them back there; only three. They were the easiest to deal with and assign parts since they usually never argued, but sometimes they would.
"Alright young students," Kakashi walked back to the group, "we got a new piece and that means new parts."
"K-Kakashi-sensei," the only female in the percussion group raised her hand lightly and looked at him. Hinata Hyuga was under the category of his favorite students; she was so nice and quiet unlike the other two of the group. She was so humble about her musical talent and he had to admit –in a not pedophile way- she was down-right cute. She had short boyishly cut midnight blue hair, big pale lavender eyes, and was pale skinned. She was a bit on the small side and had a petite build that was hidden under baggy clothes and hoodies. Her musical talent was one that could not be rivaled but no one really knew it other than Kakashi and her family. She blushed lightly, "m-may I take the snare this time?"
"Hold up," Kiba Inuzuka, the spikey brown haired dog lover said, "I always take the snare, no exception Hinata." He crossed his arms over his chest as Hinata just frowned a bit and she looked at her feet. The blonde haired male, Naruto Uzamaki nodded since they all had a part to play. Kakashi only shook his head at his student's behavior towards their female counterpart. "So where is my music Kakashi-sensei?"
"We don't actually need a single snare part for this piece," he smiled lightly behind the surgical mask he wore –he claimed it was for allergies- and looked at his clip board. "We'll need the drum-set, timpani, and the marimba." He looked at the three and before Hinata could even open her mouth, Kiba took the timpani set and Naruto was at the drum-set. She faulted a bit that she was again not given the instrument that she wanted. Kakashi gave her a soft look and patted her shoulder, "I promise that you'll get it next time." Hinata nodded and went over to the marimba while grabbing her mallets. "I'll get you your music and we than we'll be playing through it."
"A-alright Kakashi-sensei," Hinata smiled lightly as she went through the scale. Hinata was slightly upset that she was denied the chance at the drum-set. She practiced every day at home and her father would not let all his headaches to go to waste from that practice. But it seemed that her male companions were bent on the fact that she –being a female- could not be a well-known percussionist. If it had been any other girl, they would have fought for their right to play, but Hinata wasn't like that and easily succumbed to the demands of her fellow peers and adults. She was no fighter and for their next music piece, she was no drummer either. As Kakashi handed her the music, Hinata was surprised that the music was very random, going from an opera like playing, to jazz, and then to something classical. And there was also a drum solo that she had again missed out on. Hinata dropped her head low as the whole room looked back to see that Naruto was wailing on the drum-set and Hinata could only seethe in her own jealousy with no one ever knowing.
"Alright baka!" Sakura glared from her seat and gripped her clarinet tight in her fist, "We get it, and you're loud and annoying! Now knock it off!" Naruto quickly came to a stop and she sat back with a huff. Sakura Haruno fixed her pink hair and then opened up her own music to go through with her bright emerald green eyes scanning the sheet. "First I have to deal with the pig flute and now the baka drummer…"
"Shut it forehead," Ino Yamanaka said pointing her flute at the girl across from her, "at least my instrument doesn't sound like a noise maker." Sakura and Ino had a mini glare off with lightning shooting between green and blue eyes. "And at least the baka knows how to let loose."
"So troublesome," Shikamaru Nara said as he put together his obo and sat on his chair with his legs crossed. Choji Akamashi nodded from the seat behind him with his saxophone in hand and his music on the seat beside him. Shikamaru yawned, "Is this day over with?" On the other end of the spectrum Shino Aburame sat close to the percussion group with his trumpet in hand. He was busy trying to tune his instrument other than listening to Kakashi as he was trying to explain certain directions about the piece. He fixed his glasses with a bit as he looked over his new music. Sasuke Uchiha on the other hand was sitting at his piano very bored since he found himself being under rated with the music. He thought that his talents were not being used to the full extant and it was a bit true, but everyone wanted him to just get over it –except for his fan-girls-.
"Alright class," Kakashi stood in front of his stand and picked up his baton, "I just want to take a run through, just to see how much work that this is going to be." He watched as everyone raised their instrument and with a light wave the music began.

Hinata stayed back in class like she did every day; Kakashi was in a meeting and Hinata cleaned his room while he was away. She liked the quietness of the room, with all the instruments still out and about. She plugged in her iPod and played the music as she worked; after she put away the broom she went to the back room and began to file through some music that was left out and about. It always upset her when the others students wouldn't put away there things and she knew that all the cool high school kids must have thought they were idiots. As she began to file away some of the trumpet music her favorite song came on; she smiled as her hips began to sway with the music and she moved from cabinet to cabinet with a light bounce in her step. Hinata began to crudely singing the words to the music with a goofy smile as she fixed the rows of chairs. Hinata spun around with her hands in the air and just began to dance like no one was going to come in through that door.
As she came to a stop Hinata's eyes fell upon the drum-set. And then the sudden thought hit her, she was the only percussionist in the room, and with that she was the only who was allowed to play them. She turned down her iPod a bit and began to walk over to her long awaited dream; this was indeed her chance to do what she was good at. Hinata picked up the drum-sticks with a firm grip and took her seat. Nothing but glee and bliss filled her small body and she was sure she was about ready to explode. Hinata began a nice back-beat with the bass drum with her foot petal and then began to lightly tap on the edge of the snare drum rim. As the rhythm began to beat through it became more intricate and Hinata would like to think that it got a whole letter better. She was no prodigy but Hinata had practiced for as long as she could and thought that she had gotten very good. Hinata just closed her eyes and let the rhythm take over and her hands had a good job at knowing what to do.
It didn't take long for Hinata to get lost in the music and was pulled from her thoughts as a loud crash came from the front of the room and she was jostled from her peace. "O-Oh my…" she got up from her seat, dropping her sticks on the ground, and ran over to the fallen person. Hinata was on her knees beside the person who she had noticed to be that of a male student. "Are y-you okay?" The male only gave out a low grunt and sat up. Her rubbed the back of his head and then slicked back his white hair. Hinata blushed as she got a good look at the man that was indeed older than her and was so….beautiful. Hinata was caught in his amethyst purple eyes and nearly got lost in them.
"What the fuck you staring at!" He glared back at her as he got back to his feet and dusted off his pants. "This dumbass chair set-up was a fucking bad idea," he looked down at her. "Why the fuck are you still on the ground?" Hinata quickly got to her feet and stood military style; he scoffed, "Stupid middle school brats." He then got a good look at her and was soon very close to her face, "What's your name brat?"
"H-Hyuga Hinata," she said quickly with a red face and leaned away from him.
"I should have fuckin' guessed," he stood back up and shoved his hands in his pockets, "Names Hidan bitch," Hinata frowned, "where is our perv of a teacher Kakashi?"
"M-Meeting," she said lightly not wanting to get on this guy's bad side. He didn't look very friendly and all he did was swear at her when she did nothing wrong. Hinata fixed the chairs that the male had stumbled over and went over to her iPod and unplugged it. "H-He should b-be back i-in a few m-minutes."
"Hey," he yelled making her jump a good foot and made her drops some files she had picked up, "stop the stuttering it is annoying as hell." Hidan than stopped looking through the folders, "wait," he looked at her as she stood stock-still with her back to him. "You were the one playing the drums right?" She gave a light nod, "and you stutter?" Hidan smirked as he walked over to her and put his hands on her shoulders. Hinata tensed under his hold and it only made his smirk bigger. "You're the shyest little drum player I have ever seen. Why the fuck is that? Shouldn't you be playing something like some stupid flute bitch?" Before Hinata could answer another male came into the room. He had dark skin, hair, and odd green eyes. He had a scarf around his neck and dressed like a hipster that made Hinata want to smile a bit.
"Hidan," the other male said with some venom in his voice, "stop being a predatory and get back to detention. I have to get to work on time and make money."
"Oh come on Kazuka," Hidan smirked and turned Hinata to look at the male better. Hidan put his arm around her shoulders and Hinata went up in flames. "I just came to see the little middle school kid; she was playing drums and offered to help me find some stuff." Before she could deny that claim Hidan's mouth was very close to her ear and he hissed: "Right bitch?" Hinata felt her heart beat race faster than before and her knees began to buckle.
"Stop your bullshitting and let's go," Kazuka said easily seeing through the lie. Hidan sighed loudly and went over to the male's side. "I'm sorry if the moron scarred you in any way," he said to Hinata, but she was again cut off as yet another male came in, but this time she knew who it was. Hinata cheeks grew a dark pink as the Itachi Uchiha walked into the room with that same cool face that she had seen so many times before. "I got him Itachi."
"Well you took too long," he said dully and then looked over to Hinata, "Hyuga-san," he bowed lightly, "what are you still doing here?"
"I-I-I was pr-practicing," she pointed to the drums, "a-and cl-cleaning a b-bit too." She began to point her pointer fingers together and looked down at her feet. Hinata smiled lightly, "W-what a-are you still doing h-here U-Uchiha-san?"
"Why does she talk to you, asshole," Hidan glared at the dark haired male. "I couldn't get a word out of her unless I scared her shitless."
"That's not too hard," Kazuka muttered.
Itachi ignored the two and walked up to the Hyuga, "You should really get home before Hiashi-sama comes out to get you himself." He picked up a few of the files that Hinata a dropped with when Hidan had scared. He handed them back to her, "If you need a ride I'd be happy to give you one." Hinata blushed red and clutched the files close to her chest almost crushing them against her chest and began to stutter out something that none of the boys could understand. Itachi, being the kick ass man he was, only gave a light smile and poked her forehead. Hinata put her hand on her forehead and looked at him, "I'll meet you outside."
"Whoa there Itachi," Hidan smirked, "she's only 14, don't be getting any ideas." Then he smiled brightly, "Oh dude," he smacked Kazuka's arm, "you have to hear this girl play." Hidan pushed Hinata to the drums and made her drop the files again. "Play, show them I'm not bullshitting." Hinata nodded and took a seat in the chair again and then grabbed the sticks. She looked at the three as they kind of starred at her. Hinata felt her hands shake as she felt their eyes on her as she began to use the foot petal and made a steady beat. Hinata closed her eyes so she wouldn't have to look at them and, like before, she let the rhythm move her hands. Hinata didn't know for how long she was playing but when she opened her eyes again there were more people in the room; out of pure shock she dropped one of her sticks and felt her face heat up.
"That was awesome, yeah!" The blonde haired male said with a huge smile on his face, "and I thought I was the drumming King, yeah."
"Cram it Deidara," the red head said dully with his arms crossed over his chest, "anyone is better than you." Deidara glared at him and muttered out something that sounded like 'Screw you Sasori.' This Sasori looked over to the Uchiha, "We've been waiting for this? I nearly had to bail all of us out, again."
"Tobi thinks she's amazing~" Hinata blushed since she always liked Tobi; he was the nicest to her at all those clan meetings. "Tobi wants to play the drums now!"
"Like hell you will, yeah," Deidara gave him a good hit to the top of his head; it shut the male up pretty fast.
"We still have a detention to serve," the only other female in the room said, "Anko is going to murder us for ditching, again." She had pretty blue hair with an origami flower behind her ear. Not to mention the cool piercing on her bottom lip.
"No Konan," Hinata knew that this was the ever mysterious Pein that all the girls in the locker room talk about. They all want to go to prom with him, and homecoming, but Hinata didn't know why. She was honestly scared of him with all his piercings and odd eyes. "We're getting the hell out of here," he looked at Hinata, "name."
It took Hinata a moment to register what was going on but she quickly spoke her name. He only nodded, then grabbed Konan's hand and walked out. Hinata let out a deep sigh and put the sticks down. She looked over and nearly screamed as a green haired man was right in her face with his two different colored eyes staring into her own. Hinata took a step back from him, but he only took another step forward. He gave a creepy smile, "You're the heiress of the Hyuga clan." Hinata nearly felt her eyes roll into the back of her head, "I bet she'll taste like some kind of royal chocolate." Then Hinata did pass out.

"She's such a baby," that same dark voice Hinata last hear was there again, almost threatening her in a way.
"You need some people skills Zetsu," this voice was indeed new. Hinata slowly opened her eyes and they fell upon a blue haired male with black eyes, blueish skin and the sharpest teeth she had ever seen on a man. Hinata opened her mouth to scream, but he put a large hand over her mouth, "I know, I'm scary, but please don't scream." He looked pretty nice so Hinata swallowed her scream and nodded. He smiled, "Good," he took his hand off her mouth. Hinata sat up and saw that the Zetsu and blue haired man were sitting crossed legged next to her sprawled out body. "I'm Kisame by the way," he held out his hand and Hinata shock it once sitting up beside the two; "You must be the drum playing Hyuga Hidan's been bragging about finding." Hinata blushed lightly and looked at her lap. "If you ever want to show off that talent," he took out a pent and wrote a phone number on her hand, "give me a text and I know a band that is in need of your talent." Kisame smiled at her and left the room with the green haired male.
"B-bye," she waved as they walked out. Hinata got up to her feet and looked at the number that was printed on the back of her hand. Kakashi sat in his office with a pair of glasses on as he wrote some stuff. She walked over to his office, "I-I'm going t-to be heading h-home Kakashi-sensei," she smiled lightly as she grabbed her bag that sat against his desk.
"Alright Hyuga-san," he looked up at her and smiled, "thanks for your help and get home safely." She nodded and walked out of the room after grabbing her iPod. She walked down the halls through the high school and was kind of upset that she missed out on a chance to be driven home. Hinata sighed lightly as she exited the school and went out into the parking lot, but when she looked up she was surprised to see one car in the middle of the parking lot with both Uchiha boys sitting on top of the car roof. Hinata blushed lightly and walked over to the car.
"Hello Hyuga-chan~" Tobi waved as he jumped down from the top of the car, "Itachi-chan was about ready to go get Hyuga-chan." He smiled brightly that Hinata could only smile back at him. "Itachi-chan was so worried about Hyuga-chan, Tobi thinks Itachi-chan likes Hyuga-chan," he whispered the last part in her ear as Itachi was getting into the driver side of the car. Hinata went pink at the thought, that the great Uchiha heir could like her. "Well come on Hyuga-chan," Tobi opened the door for her and ushered her in, "Tobi is a good boy." Hinata nodded and got into the car; Tobi ran over to the passenger side and once he was in Itachi started the car up and drove off.
"Th-thank you f-for waiting U-Uchiha-s-san," Hinata said lightly while looking out the windshield. "S-sorry I too so l-long."
"Think nothing of it," he said not taking his eyes off the road, "Kisame told me what happened and you can't be blamed for Zetsu's….people skills." Hinata smiled lightly. "I just hope that Hiashi-sama won't over-react with me bringing you home."
"Oh Hyuga-sama isn't so bad," Tobi said as he fiddled with the radio, "Tobi thinks Hyuga-sama will be okay." He then turned around and smiled at Hinata, "Kisame-chan told Itachi-chan that you got his number for the band Tobi is making." Hinata nodded lightly, "Hyuga-chan should come by Tobi's house so he can see her practice." She blushed lightly but Tobi only smiled softer, "Tobi thinks Hyuga-chan would make a very cute drummer."
Itachi gave the male a good smack to the face, "Shut up Tobi," Tobi whined and held his nose, "you are not to flirt with her, even if she does join your band." Hinata blushed pink and looked at the number on her hand again. Itachi glanced at her as he pulled up to her home's gates, "But I would highly recommend for you to get your talent out there," he looked over to one of the guards and held out his I.D. "I'm here to drop off Hyuga-san," Hinata waved shyly to the guard who had looked to see if Hinata was really in there. Then the car went through the opened gates and Hinata was at home once more. "Just call Kisame if you do decide to join," Hinata nodded as she exited the car and bowed to them. Tobi happily waved back and Itachi only nodded; Hinata just watched as the car pulled out and then took off down the road. Hinata gave a dreamy sigh and walked into her house and then slipped off her shoes.
"Hinata," Hiashi looked up from the newspaper, "where have you been?" Hinata glanced over at her father who was sitting on the sofa. Hanabi was on the floor flipping through a magazine and her iPod blaring in her ears.
"J-just at school," she said lightly.
"I was informed that Itachi Uchiha dropped you off," Hinata was surprised at how fast news got passed around in this house. Hinata nodded at the statement. Hiashi went back to his newspaper, "Anything happen that I should know of?"
"T-Tobi-san o-offered me a spot in his band Tou-san, "Hinata smiled happily as she placed her bag down and twirled around on the wood floors. Hiashi's eye twitched at that one, "I-I think I-I might d-do it," she looked to him, "a-all my practicing w-will be shown a-and no one w-will think m-me being a drummer is a j-joke." Hinata giggled and ran off, "I-I have t-to call Kisame-san," Hiashi gapped as he watched his daughter prance up the stairs.
He quickly pulled out his cell phone and dialed, "Hello? Yes it is I. I need someone to be able to watch over my daughter." Hiashi felt his fist clench, "since a bunch of hormonal boys will not take my little princess's innocence!" Hanabi rolled her eyes from her spot since she knew that her father was overly protective of Hinata even though he never showed it. "I want background checks on them, and if anyone even tries to touch her, you get her out of there and kill the boy! Understood?"
Hanabi got up and walked out of there as Neji was going in, "What's up with him," Neji asked looking down at her.
"Hinata wants to join a band that has Tobi-baka and his friends in it," she said and Hanabi didn't have to look over to see that Neji was seething in anger and pulled out his own phone. "I hope paranoia isn't a dominate gene," she muttered as she walked out of there and went to her room. Hinata sat in her room happily talking to an even happier Kisame as they both made plans to somehow get the whole band together, she was blissfully unaware that as they spoke someone was tapping into the phone lines and Hiashi was giving orders to some secret service men about protecting his princess.
Hiashi knew he should have never bought her the drum set.
